Q&A: Researchers develop sustainable new adhesives for industry

Karan Dikshit (Ph.D.MatSci'22) is the first author on a paper in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces that introduces new adhesive materials that not only allow for easy sticking and unsticking but could eventually contribute ...

X-ray beams help researchers learn new tricks from old metals

A research team led by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory used powerful X-ray beams to unlock a new understanding of materials important to the production and use of hydrogen. The goal is to ...

Synthetic biology meets fashion in engineered silk

Scientists have long been intrigued by the remarkable properties of spider silk, which is stronger than steel yet incredibly lightweight and flexible. Now, Fuzhong Zhang, a professor of energy, environmental and chemical ...

Electrocatalysis: Iron and cobalt oxyhydroxides examined

Very soon, we need to become fossil free, not only in the energy sector, but in industry as well. Hydrocarbons or other raw chemicals can be produced in principle using renewable energy and abundant molecules such as water ...
