Oak Ridge National Laboratory announced researchers led by the University of Manchester used neutron scattering in the development of a catalyst that converts biomass into liquid fuel with remarkably high efficiency. The development provides new possibilities for manufacturing renewable energy-related materials. Neutron scattering experiments at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory played a […]

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign engineers have developed a solid polymer-based electrolyte that can self-heal after damage. Plus the material can also be recycled without the use of harsh chemicals or high temperatures. The new study, which could help manufacturers produce recyclable, self-healing commercial batteries, is published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. […]

Wake Forest University scientists have created a new chemical process that does in the lab what trees do in nature, convert carbon dioxide into usable chemicals or fuels. The research paper describing the new chemical process “Colloidal Silver Diphosphide Nanocrystals as Low Overpotential Catalysts for CO2 Reduction to Tunable Syngas,” has been published online in […]

The method, outlined in the journal Green Chemistry, addresses the enormous […]

Korea’s Pohang University of Science & Technology engineers have developed a three-dimensional monolithic organic battery electrode. With the launch of wearable devices and smartphones that require high capacity of electricity such as foldable phones and 5G phones, the interest in batteries is increasing and various battery types are getting developed. For example, think of flexible […]
