In this interactive activity adapted from NOVA, explore the prevalence of ringed-carbon structures in the natural world, as well as the structural variations that give rise to their unique chemical ...

"This new chemistry gives us control over molecular structure in a way that's both simple and broadly useful," added Dr. Grocott. "It opens the door to designing smarter, better-targeted compounds ...

An MCAM customer wanted to replace metal injection molded (MIM) magnesium with a composite on a performance mountain bike’s suspension elements with the goals of reducing mass and avoiding processing ...

Researchers in Japan have found an energy-efficient way to convert the chief greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO 2) into useful chemicals. Using the method, CO 2 is transformed into structures called ...

In recent times, "electrochemical conversion (e-chemical)" technology-which converts carbon dioxide to high-value-added compounds using renewable electricity-has gained research attention as a carbon ...

A study of 29 European lakes has found that some naturally-occurring lake bacteria grow faster and more efficiently on the remains of plastic bags than on natural matter like leaves and twigs. The ...
