1+ day, 19+ hour ago  (1671+ words) Four different membranes were prepared: M1, M2, M3, and M4. The composition of each membrane is shown in Table1. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was performed using a QUANTA FEG-250. Mechanical testing of the prepared membranes involved recording the stress at break () and elongation at break…...

5+ hour, 39+ min ago  (146+ words) Scientists from MIT's Media Lab have developed extremely thin strands that wrap and unravel at the flip of an electric switch. They strikingly resemble your own muscles. When grouped together, they can generate significant force and movement, all while remaining…...

5+ day, 6+ hour ago  (168+ words) Apr. 6, 2026 at 12: 11pm Authorities in Saugatuck, Michigan are investigating a toxic spill that went unnoticed for weeks along a local roadside. The spill, which appears to involve an unknown chemical substance, was eventually discovered by a passerby and reported to officials,…...

1+ hour, 42+ min ago  (331+ words) A breakthrough in stabilizing a highly reactive carbon molecule could revolutionize sustainable chemistry and our understanding of life. Apr. 11, 2026 at 4: 33pm After 67 years, a theory proposed by chemist Ronald Breslow about the potential role of carbenes in vitamin B1 has been validated....

4+ hour, 5+ min ago  (509+ words) Carbenes, characterized by carbon atoms with only six valence electrons instead of the usual stable eight, are inherently unstable and react almost instantly, particularly in water. For decades, the extreme reactivity of these molecules prevented direct observation, leaving a long-standing…...

3+ hour, 26+ min ago  (434+ words) Rolling Out A 67-year-old chemistry theory has finally been confirmed In 1958, Columbia University chemist Ronald Breslow proposed that vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, could briefly form a carbene-like structure to drive important biochemical reactions inside the body. It was a…...
