The concept of constructing a self-supporting structure made of rods—without the use of nails, ropes, or glue—dates back to ...

Most plastics used today – roughly 75% – are made of semicrystalline polymers. These materials have a layered structure that ...

GFRP is a natural insulator. Its electrical non-conductivity makes it ideal for use in power plants, substations ...

The world is littered with trillions of micro- and nanoscopic pieces of plastic. These can be smaller than a virus—just the ...

Bee products such as honey, pollen, and propolis loaded thin films were evaluated according to their potential as wound ...

The findings explain how most common plastics shed nanoscopic pieces into the environment – not just when they’re burned or crushed, but slowly and quietly, just by sitting out in the open.

Bee-derived materials like honey and propolis show promise in wound healing, with polymeric films exhibiting key ...

By imitating the structure of a protein, chemists have now made a strong, tough polymer that also exhibits elastic properties. In most of these cases, the synthetic materials mimic the structural ...

UT Dallas researchers created a durable, self-repairing, and more recyclable 3D-printed foam using dynamic chemistry, opening ...

LS GreenLink USA has finalized its purchase of more than 96 acres in Chesapeake near the Port of Virginia for a manufacturing ...

When it comes to supporting manufacturers in their innovation drive, there is no single form of tailor-made training. However ...

A new therapy that first made headlines in 2021 is now showing potential to heal human cartilage. Developed by scientists at ...
