AdvertisementWater: Two Liquids in One
New research from the Institute of Physical Chemistry at the University of Innsbruck has provided strong evidence for the two-liquid model of water, which could
World Record: Fabric Thinner Than Atom
Scientists at the University of Manchester have developed the thinnest fabric in the world using a chemical process. The mesh of chain-like organic molecules is
Stable Silicon Carbonyl Complex Made
In a breakthrough discovery, researchers from the Justus-Liebig-University in Gießen and the University of Duisburg-Essen have found a cost-effective alternative to using rare and expensive
Paper waste used for carbon nanotubes
A new method of producing carbon nanotubes has been developed using old newspapers. Carbon nanotubes are tiny structures made up of one or more layers
Beer waste turned into carbon nanotubes
A new method has been developed to convert grain waste from beer production into activated carbon and carbon nanotubes, which can be used for water
Million Times Thinner Gold Plate
Scientists at the University of Leeds have developed a new two-layered gold material that accelerates chemical processes ten times faster than currently used nanoparticles. The
Fuel from Plastic Waste: Activated Carbon
Scientists at Washington State University have developed a new method of producing kerosene and diesel from plastic waste. The plastic is first ground into rice-sized
Chemists turn CO2 into coal
Chemists at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia have developed a new process that can turn carbon dioxide (CO2) back into coal using liquid metals as
Identifying High-Quality Wine Chemically
Counterfeit products are a major problem in various industries, including fashion, art, and even wine. However, researchers from the University of Natural Resources and Life
Elemental Fluor Found in Nature
In a surprising discovery, researchers have found small amounts of elemental fluorine in a mineral called fluorspar, contradicting the long-held belief that this highly reactive
