A team of chemists and material scientists at the University of Tokyo has developed a new class of interlocking supramolecular systems by combining metal-organic frameworks with rotaxanes. In their study, reported in the ...
Recognizing the ultrafast laser-to-thermal conversion capacity and the impermeable, flexible features of graphene Dr. Ye-Chuang Han and Prof. Zhong-Qun Tian conceived the idea of using the material as the diffusion-constrained ...
A research team led by Professor Kelvin Yeung from the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, School of Clinical Medicine, LKS Faculty of Medicine, the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed) has designed a new microneedle ...
A team of nuclear chemists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, working with a colleague from Changzhou University, has discovered a unique relaxation mechanism in a lattice-based material they built that had negative thermal ...
New work on MXene/MOF hybrid materials has been published in Energy Material Advances.
Chemical engineers at Monash University have developed an industrial process to produce acetic acid that uses the excess carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and has a potential to create negative carbon emissions.
The never-ending demand for carbon-rich fuels to drive the economy keeps adding more and more carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. While efforts are being made to reduce CO2 emissions, that alone cannot counter the adverse ...
Researchers from Stockholm University have developed porous crystals made from pomegranate extract to capture and degrade pharmaceutical molecules found in local municipal wastewater. The research is published in the scientific ...
The process of filtration makes an appearance in quite a few instances of our daily lives, for example: a strainer filtering out tea leaves while making a cup of tea. The tea leaves, being larger in size than the pores of ...
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can be an ideal platform for detecting or extracting metal ions due to their different functional building units and large surface area.
