Scientists modify their method to make flash graphene to enhance it for recycling plastic into graphene

Researchers are attempting to pioneer a type of computing that mimics the efficiency of the brain's neural networks while exploiting the brain's analog nature

Bioplastics may not be produced from oil, but that's about the only benefit, researchers say

Researchers synthesize an elastic polymer from low-cost, sustainable materials that can be used to fabricate lenses that help keep infrared cameras focused in the dark

Efforts to improve the management and reuse of plastic waste have had limited success; many still face significant technical and economic challenges

An interdisciplinary collaboration updated the "small polaron hopping model" to reflect different pathways for conduction in ceramics

Chemists have developed a material that could make an important contribution to climate protection and sustainable industrial production

Newly published research also indicates a strong relationship between heat and microplastic release, such that warmer liquids result in far greater microplastic release
