A serendipitous observation in a Chemical Engineering lab at Penn Engineering has led to a surprising discovery: a new class of nanostructured materials that can pull water from the air, collect it in pores and release it ...
Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have discovered a phenomenon—applying pressure to a copper-chromium Prussian blue analog, which is a compound featuring crystal voids, causes the discharge of water retained within ...
Natural and engineered systems have a whole world of chemistry inside their tiny pores—known as nanopores—that changes depending on the chemical functional groups inside.
Electrolyzers are devices that can split water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity and via a process known as electrolysis. In the future, these devices could help to produce hydrogen gas from water, which is valuable ...
Condensation is critical for applications like power generation, water harvesting, and cooling systems. However, traditional surfaces suffer from a drop in performance under high subcooling, when the surface temperature is ...
Hidden within sphagnum moss, commonly known as peat moss, is an adsorbent material that can help us combat oil spills. A study by researchers from China presents a new bio-based oil adsorbent derived from sphagnum moss that ...
The upcoming U.S. Open has professional golfers and spectators looking forward to getting on the green. But the grass's condition, regardless of a player's skill, can drastically skew the chances of a winning putt. Now, scientists ...
By unraveling the complex choreography of cellular machinery, Michigan State University researchers are helping identify the next generation of drug targets and cancer therapies.
The Smart 3D Printing Research Team at KERI, led by Dr. Seol Seung-kwon has developed the world's first technology for printing high-resolution 3D microstructures using MXene, a material known as the dream material.
Hydrogen is a much-debated option in terms of CO₂-neutral energy production. Electrolyzer units that split water into its constituent oxygen and storable hydrogen are supplied with electricity from renewable resources, mainly ...
