Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in two-dimensional stacking of antiaromatic materials

Robots and prosthetics are becoming ever more human-like, but the electronic skins designed to enhance their usefulness don't yet have the full range of tactile senses that we have

Environmentally friendly material tweaked to soak up to five times its weight in oil, float four months in icy, rough waters

“Potential applications of this finding could include storage and release of hydrogen or natural gas to run your car, or in industrial uses where the frameworks could trap and separate dangerous gases to keep them from entering the atmosphere” 

Chemists have developed a method that produces cyclic depsipeptides in a single step with high yields and in unusually large sizes, ranging up to rings with 60 atoms

“Everybody’s heard of blood diamonds, but maybe people haven’t heard of blood cobalt or tantalum or lithium”

“Our discovery is exciting in that it provides both new fundamental understanding and new materials, and useful applications are always built on a foundation of fundamental understanding”

Scientists study the properties of this quasi-liquid layer on ice at the molecular level using advanced surface-specific spectroscopy and computer simulations

The team has studied head- and eye-injury risk for dozens of toys, including lightsabers, darts, toy helicopters, pellet guns, water guns, bows, and miniature drones

Up-close, real-time, chemical-sensitive 3D imaging offers clues for reducing cost/improving performance of catalysts for fuel-cell-powered vehicles and other applications
