In a recent study published in the journal Construction and Building Materials, researchers investigated the self-healing efficiency of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) containing encapsulated healing bacteria (i.e. S. pasteurii) in porous expanded glass granules, obtained from recycling of glass wastes.
In a recent study published in the journal MethodsX, researchers from Taiwan developed a novel method to synthesize naturally soft and colored polyester through esterification polymerization of collagen peptides extracted from fish scale waste.
In a recent study published in the open-access journal Nature Communication, researchers developed a novel non-thermal plasma-assisted rapid hydrogenolysis method to recycle plastic polystyrene (PS) waste to produce ethylene and hydrocarbon gases.
In an article posted to the preprint server Research Square, researchers developed a new method to synthesize single-sited NiNx electrocatalyst at a much lower temperature in an ordinary muffle furnace through anchoring its precursor to a surfactant-containing metal-organic coordination compound (MLM) emulsion substrate.
In a recent study published in the journal Vacuum, researchers from South Korea attempted to minimize the leakage current problem with ultrathin metal oxide insulation layers in memory devices such as dynamic random-access memory (DRAM).
