Melanin-like compounds can be precisely designed and arranged to colour materials using a mechanism similar to that found in a peacock’s feathers. Chemist Michinari Kohri of Chiba University in Japan reviewed the latest research on these ‘melanin-mimetic…
Accurate measurements of crystalline deformation should help engineer stronger components for more energy-efficient turbines. Metals containing niobium silicide are promising materials that can withstand high temperatures and improve efficiency of gas turbines in power plants…
Researchers have used a novel catalyst process to recycle a type of plastic found in everything from grocery bags and food packaging to toys and electronics into liquid fuels and wax. The researchers looked to…
Scientists use two-state model based on the formation of tetrahedral structures to explain water’s anomalous properties and the surprising liquid–liquid transition of water. Tokyo- Researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science at The University of…
