Chemists develop new sustainable reaction for creating unique molecular building blocks
Polymers can be thought of like trains: Just as a train is composed of multiple cars, polymers are made up of multiple monomers, and the couplings between the train cars are similar to the chemical bonds that link monomers together. While polymers ha.....»»
NVIDIA uses Apple Vision Pro to capture teleoperated demonstrations and control humanoid robots
Apple may not have much use for NVIDIA, but that doesn’t mean NVIDIA has no use for Apple. Specifically, the Apple Vision Pro headset it uses to develop its humanoid robot. See how below: more….....»»
Engineers develop general, high-speed technology to model, understand catalytic reactions
Researchers have been studying the industrial production of ammonia for a century. But they've struggled to find ways to improve the low-yield, low-efficiency process......»»
More microbes found that break down the carbon-fluorine bonds found in some unsaturated PFAS
A team of chemical and environmental engineers at the University of California Riverside, working with colleagues from the University of California Los Angeles, has found a class of microbes that consume PFAS in the environment and sever some of the.....»»
Researchers develop a concept for efficiency-enhanced noble-metal catalysts
The production of more than 90% of all chemical products we use in our everyday lives relies on catalysts. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions, can reduce the energy required for these processes, and in some cases, reactions would not be possible a.....»»
A Band-Aid for the heart? New 3D printing method makes this, and much more, possible
In the quest to develop life-like materials to replace and repair human body parts, scientists face a formidable challenge: Real tissues are often both strong and stretchable and vary in shape and size......»»
