Way Found To Use Chromium Replacing Rare Metal Catalysts
September 13, 2023 | Leave a Comment
University of Basel chemists have succeeded in replacing the rare elements osmium and ruthenium with a significantly cheaper metal. In terms of their properties, the new materials are very similar to those used in the past. Expensive noble metals often play a vital role in illuminating screens or converting solar energy into fuels. We’re familiar […]

Big Plans In Mind For Battery Tech That Charges In A Minute
September 7, 2023 | Leave a Comment
Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (EMPA) engineers aim to revolutionize rechargeable batteries: Their thin-film batteries are not only safer and longer-lasting than conventional lithium-ion batteries, they are also much more environmentally friendly to manufacture and can be charged in just one minute. For now, the battery is very small, but the founders […]
