Isoporous membranes for superior purification
A research group led by Prof. Volker Abetz at Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht in Germany has introduced one new dimension to the fabrication of non-solvent induced phase separation- (SNIPS) based isoporous block copolymer membranes.
Biomolecule tracking with gold nanoparticles
Researchers from Texas, USA, and Spain, used the technique multiphoton plasmonic lithography (MPPL) to achieve immobilization of bovine serum albumin hydrogels on a single gold nanotriangle (AuNT).
Injectable hydrogels for cardiac tissue repair
In a review by researchers at Harvard Medical School, MIT and the American University of Beirut, recent developments in injectable hydrogels for cardiac tissue repair are highlighted.
Shedding light on miniemulsion polymerization
The reaction characteristics of miniemulsion polymerization are elucidated via a series of experiments and modeling.
Disordered cathodes for Li-ion batteries
An oxyfluoride-based cathode material for Li-ion batteries with high practical specific capacity beyond that of classical systems has been developed.
