Unlike halogenated flame retardants, magnesium carbonate is non-toxic, thermally stable, and environmentally benign. Its ...

A study published in npj Computational Materials presents a new AI system that uses computer vision and language processing ...

Controlling regioselectivity remains one of the major challenges in hydrocyanation. When an unsymmetrical alkyne undergoes this reaction, it typically yields a mixture of regioisomers. This ...

A controlled/"living" click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise ...

Two Skagit Valley College students — one from Anacortes — have been chosen for a respected chemistry research program.

We report the design and development of a series of novel ionic liquid polymers (PILs) which possess thermoresponsive properties in organic solvent. The PILs were synthesized via reversible ...

In situ polymerization in a covalent organic framework boosts lithium-ion conduction in solid polymer electrolytes, advancing ...

Its structure is so effective that scientists are now mimicking it in synthetic materials for filters, electronics, and ...

A team of scientists from Flinders University have developed a method to extract gold from ore and e-waste using ...

A new polymer has unusual properties: it is very stable, lightweight, can be flexible and can kill viruses. It is also easy ...

Metallocene catalysts are "just a rumble on the tracks," says one industry consultant, "but it's certainly a train that's coming." The plastics industry, by most accounts, is moving into an era based ...

Researchers have developed a new, loofah-like material that is fine enough to filter out viruses and bacteria from water, but strong enough to be used as a rigid construction material in devices.
