Diazonium chemistry offers a stable alternative for silica modification, creating a polymeric-like layer with enhanced hydrolytic stability.

They observe for the first time the movement of oxygen atoms in liquid water, revealing life forms and effects for plasma ...

Research into dual-site catalysts reveals the surprising role of defects and single atoms in enhancing the oxygen evolution ...

Penn State researchers created seven new high-entropy oxides by removing oxygen during synthesis, enabling metals that normally destabilize to form rock-salt ceramics. Machine learning helped identify ...

Champaign have developed a new theoretical framework that could dramatically reduce the cost and complexity of predicting chemical reaction energetics without sacrificing accuracy. Led by chemical and ...

Physics World is delighted to announce its Top 10 Breakthroughs of the Year for 2025, which includes research in astronomy, ...

The CANMILK project is developing a plasma-based system suitable for direct operation in barns to reduce methane emissions from livestock. The goal is to capture dilute methane present in barn air and ...

The findings could help chemists optimize catalytic systems in the future. Gold demand has skyrocketed in the past decade. This has caused airborne mercury pollution to rise as well. The two may not ...

In 1942, the Manhattan Project needed to create a chain reaction—a crucial step toward proving that it would be possible to make an atomic bomb. The scientists achieved this sustained nuclear reaction ...

A reaction sequence involves multiple steps, each transforming the starting material into an intermediate product until the final desired product is achieved. To predict the product accurately, one ...
