Can hydrogen become platinum’s next big market?
1+ day, 10+ hour ago (473+ words) Vehicle electrification threatens the primary end market for platinum, but proton-exchange membrane technologies in the emerging hydrogen economy offer a potential replacement as primary mine supply tightens....
In 1724, a Meteorite Fell in Germany. Scientists Found It Contained a Material “Impossible” Under Known Physics
1+ hour, 22+ min ago (422+ words) Researchers found that a material hidden inside a centuries-old meteorite acts like neither crystal nor glass. A chunk of rock that fell from space in 1724 has spent three centuries in a Paris museum. Researchers have now used it to confirm…...
Gold nanostars make voltage-sensing proteins brighter and several times faster
5+ hour, 44+ min ago (920+ words) Plasmonic nano-antennas altered a protein’s light emission and response speed without changing its genetic code. (CREDIT: Shutterstock) Gold nanostars only tens of nanometers across changed how a fluorescent voltage sensor behaved in living mammalian cells. The particles made the engineered…...
New thin-film material combines rigidity with extreme heat insulation
7+ hour, 54+ min ago (493+ words) The thin film has a thermal conductivity of roughly 0.04 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹ at room temperature. A newly designed non-porous, thin-film material combines extreme stiffness with exceptionally low thermal conductivity. It addresses a long-standing trade-off where stiff materials usually conduct heat…...
Can agricultural waste provide a sustainable alternative to activated carbon for water purification?
9+ hour, 10+ min ago (435+ words) Activated carbon is commonly used to remove pollutants from water. It has a large surface area and can attract many different contaminants, including some organic chemicals. However, producing activated carbon can require significant amounts of energy, and high-quality activated carbon…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9276: Predictive Modeling and Multi-Objective Optimization of SLM 316L Stainless Steel via Response Surface Methodology and Grey Relational Analysis
15+ hour, 52+ min ago (469+ words) This study presents a methodology for balancing surface integrity, densification, and hardness in selective laser melting (SLM) of 316L stainless steel. While SLM offers unparalleled geometric freedom, achieving optimal performance is often hindered by trade-offs among process parameters. To address this,…...
Hokkaido University Launches Institute For Catalysis
16+ hour, 35+ min ago (620+ words) Ivy Delaney has been working with neural networks and machine learning since the mid-nineties, back when a couple of hidden layers and a long afternoon of training counted as ambitious. She has watched the field go from academic curiosity to…...
