1+ hour, 42+ min ago  (485+ words) Scientists have developed a new material that uses sunlight to break down PFAS, a group of long-lasting pollutants often called "forever chemicals." The discovery offers hope for cleaning up contaminated water and soil, as well as creating easier ways to…...

6+ hour, 51+ min ago  (304+ words) In the future, farmers on the Moon and Mars will have a big challenge: how to grow healthy food in two extremely unhealthy environments. That's because the soil on both worlds isn't at all hospitable to plants and animals. Neither…...

11+ hour, 8+ min ago  (739+ words) Plastic waste has a way of lingering. It doesn't just pile up in landfills " it breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, spreading through rivers, lakes, and oceans as microplastics. Now, researchers say they've found a surprisingly elegant way to…...

15+ hour, 52+ min ago  (477+ words) Scientists in Germany have created a new material that can capture energy from sunlight, store it for days, and later release it as hydrogen fuel'even in the dark. Developed by researchers at Ulm University and Friedrich Schiller University Jena, the…...

19+ hour, 38+ min ago  (85+ words) Alkali cation effects in electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction: Researchers have conducted aprofound analysis of the controversial issues regarding the effects of alkali cations on the electrocatalytic reaction process. They highlighted the comprehensive influence for the adsorption modes of alkali cations…...

22+ hour ago  (652+ words) In response, researchers in the Pinto Lab at Georgia Tech set out to reimagine the monitoring process. They began developing a portable technology that allows teams to see and understand what microorganisms are present in a sample almost immediately. That…...

23+ hour, 40+ min ago  (837+ words) Strong polyelectrolyte brushes are widely used to engineer smart surfaces, yet they have long been considered insensitive to pH changes. New research challenges this assumption by showing that pH responsiveness in these materials depends not only on chemical composition but…...

23+ hour, 45+ min ago  (860+ words) In the relentless quest for advanced electrochemical devices, electrolyte solvents have traditionally relied on oxygen- and nitrogen-based ligands. These conventional solvents have underpinned the development of lithium and sodium ion batteries, leveraging the strong dipole-ion interactions between ligands and alkali…...

1+ day, 40+ min ago  (909+ words) In the global pursuit of sustainable and eco-friendly mobility solutions, hydrogen-powered vehicles have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional fossil fuel-powered transportation. Central to the operation of these vehicles is the fuel cell, often heralded as the "heart of…...

1+ day, 44+ min ago  (549+ words) Kathleen Lonsdale transformed the field of organic chemistry. Just as notable, however, was her refusal to compromise her pacifist beliefs even when faced with a brutal backlash. Scientists should take an interest in national and international affairs, not as politicians,…...
