Rather than a potential triumph, the compostable plastics we use look increasingly like a tragedy. Andy Extance looks at the ...

Particle size, chemical composition, crystallinity and shape can be controlled by temperature, pH-value, concentration, chemical composition, surface modifications and process control. Two basic ...

A team of international researchers has developed a new method for doping silver (Ag) in solar cells aimed at suppressing ...

This crystallinity imparts unique optical, electrical, and magnetic properties that are significantly different from those of their bulk counterparts, due to quantum confinement effects. Nanocrystals ...

McKeown and colleagues had shown that the solvent (mainly methanol) present initially could be exchanged for a variety of other solvents (including water) without loss of crystallinity.

Much like the old adage that proclaims, “There’s the right way, the wrong way, and the Army way.” Similarly, there’s a right way to break in your freshly machined engine, there is the wrong way, and ...

It is often observed that small-pore materials are impermeable to nitrogen even when they retain their crystallinity, an effect that can arise from pore blockage at the surface. Although not ...

TOKYO – Japanese fibre manufacturer Teijin Frontier has confirmed the global roll-out of its Biofront polylactic acid (PLA) ...

BIOFRONT® resin aligns with Teijin Frontier’s THINK ECOⓇ environmental strategy and joins the company’s wide range of ...

By regulating the secondary growth of lead iodide, an international group of scientists has built a perovskite solar cell ...

Furthermore, the research team found that the liquid material formed by Ag doping promotes crystal growth, significantly improving the density and crystallinity of the absorber layer. This ...

This makes it possible for the distribution of chemical compounds, crystallinity, or material stress properties to be visualized. In addition to its imaging capabilities, the system can also be ...
