As tough as medieval chainmail armor and as soft as a contact lens. This material is not taken from science fiction, it is a ...

Chemists have developed a generative AI model that can make it much easier to determine the structures of powdered crystal materials. The prediction model could help researchers characterize materials ...

Inspired by kirigami, a type of Japanese paper art, researchers have created a new material that transforms from a grid into ...

Duplicates of crystal structures are flooding databases, implicating repositories hosting organic, inorganic, and ...

Fungi are master engineers capable of building vast networks underground. Now, researchers have harnessed their capabilities to create a living building material that could be a sustainable ...

Mesoporous materials are a class of nanomaterials characterized by their highly ordered porous structure with pore sizes ranging from 2 to 50 nanometers. These materials possess large surface areas, ...

Mono-material flexible film packaging structures based primarily on polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), or even polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are being promoted as an effective means of ...

iSurface, a project led by Munro Technology, Z Prime, Axalp Technologies AG and researchers from Swiss university of applied sciences FHNW (Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz), unveiled a new intelligent ...

Materials scientists at Rice University and collaborators have developed a material that uses light to break down a range of ...
