Imagine trying to design machines that will last forever, regardless of use or destination. Instead of those machines requiring a steady stream of spare parts (essentially impossible for space probes ...
Liquid metal droplets fuse themselves into stretchable circuits at room temperature, driven only by surface tension gradients during solvent evaporation.
The researchers estimate their self-healing strategy can extend the lifetime of conventional fibre-reinforced composite materials by centuries compared to the current decades-long design-life. “This ...
Addressing global water scarcity, Active Membranes' electro-active systems enhance desalination, offering significant cost ...
The polymer solar cell is able to retain 97% of its performance after 2,000 hours in air. By blending small-molecule acceptors into polymeric matrices, the research team improved molecular packing, ...
That doesn’t make the effort futile. It places it in context. Bio-based foams represent one strategy among many: redesign packaging, reduce unnecessary cushioning, regulate the worst offenders, and ...
For centuries, Thailand ’s ecosystems have relied on natural cycles driven by once-abundant wildlife, including hornbills.
Estée Lauder has completely reimagined their iconic Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation, and as someone who’s been wearing the original for years, I had to put the new formula to the test.
The new Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup is available now at Myer for $83, and if history is anything to go by, ...
A new review of emerging research suggests that biochar, a carbon-rich material produced from biomass, could play an important role in making 3D ...
Chemists in South Korea have created a stable color-changing sensor that displays an easily quantifiable response to the pH of its surroundings. Published in Microsystems & Nanoengineering, Dong-Hwan ...
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new molecule which carries DNA into biological cells, to treat or vaccinate against illnesses. Many existing options rely on molecules ...
