The 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry predictions mark the third time we have covered this category. First, let's look back at the fields awarded up until last year. 2007: Studies of chemical processes on ...

Research led by a group from the University of Newcastle has found a new way to make silicone surfaces—and control how slippery they are. The work was published in the journal Chemistry of Materials.

This year’s favorites include electron transfer in proteins, solar cells, DNA sequencing, self-assembled monolayers, and glycoprotein synthesis ...

Every drilled oil and gas well is a quiet chemical battleground. Water-based drilling mud, the workhorse fluid that cools the ...

Water treatment engineers have long wrestled with a stubborn paradox at the heart of membrane filtration: the toughest, most ...

Cationic ring-opening polymerization of substituted six-membered cyclic enol ethers offers a distinct route to vinyl polymers with head-to-head alternating side chains. However, poor control over the ...

Polymer synthesis, also called polymerization, is the process by which monomers (small molecules) are covalently bonded to form a (usually long) polymer chain or network.

Researchers have designed polymers that can be patterned directly with light into OLED pixels far smaller than those used in today's displays - a step ...

Radicals, atoms or molecules that readily react with other substances to form new bonds, are useful tools for building complex substances such as pharmaceuticals. But even when a radical is generated ...
