Heavier hydrogen on the atomic scale reduces friction
Scientists may be one step closer to understanding the atomic forces that cause friction, thanks to a recently published study by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Houston and the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory. view more (2007-11-05)
Novel sugar-to-hydrogen technology promises transportation fuel independence
The hydrogen economy is not a futuristic concept. The U.S. Department of Energy's 2006 Advance Energy Initiative calls for competitive ethanol from plant sources by 2012 and a good selection of hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles by 2020. view more (2007-05-23)
Scientists discover how cigarette smoke causes cancer: Study points to new treatments, safer tobacco
Everyone has known for decades that that smoking can kill, but until now no one really understood how cigarette smoke causes healthy lung cells to become cancerous. view more (2008-02-28)
Improving Fuel Cell Durability: Research into Better Fuel Cell Materials and Designs Starts with Studying Failures
Fuel cells can be expensive and they typically don't last as long as their internal combustion counterparts. view more (2007-11-29)
'Hot' oxygen atoms on titanium dioxide motivated by more than just temperature
Like two ballroom dancers waltzing together, the two atoms of an oxygen molecule severed by a metal catalyst usually behave identically. But new research reveals that on a particular catalyst, split oxygen atoms act like a couple dancing the tango: one oxygen atom plants itself while the other shimmies away, probably with energy partially stolen... view more...

Geological reasons of ozone layer destruction
The modern science admits that the ozone concentration in the stratosphere is diminishing. This process has been fixing since the middle of 1980s. "The most popular hypothesis about technogenic freon that destroys the ozone layer is quite vulnerable", - said Dr. of geology Vladimir Sivorotkin who studies the problem of the ozone layer for ten... view more...

Trans fats hinder multiple steps in blood flow regulation pathways
Partially hydrogenated vegetable oils in processed foods contain trans fatty acids that interfere with the regulation of blood flow. A new report reveals a new way in which these "trans fats" gum up the cellular machinery that keeps blood moving through arteries and veins. view more (2009-06-17)
Collaborative study successfully applies neutrons to study hydrogen transfer in biological systems
An innovative collaboration among scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Fox Chase Cancer Center and the University of Tennessee has successfully applied neutron diffraction to create a three-dimensional map of the structure of the enzyme D-xylose isomerase. view more (2006-05-16)
Hydrogen Storage Gets New Hope
A new method for "recycling" hydrogen-containing fuel materials could open the door to economically viable hydrogen-based vehicles. view more (2009-09-02)
Power to the people
You`ve just settled in front of the TV to watch your favourite programme when the lights go out and the TV goes blank. Power cuts are annoying for anyone, but can be particularly costly for companies supplying power who suffer financial penalties if they fail to deliver. At the inaugural meeting of the Dielectrics Group of the Institute of Physics... view more... (2001-12-17)
Displays for the pants pocket
Much to the disappointment of many users of computer and portable electronic information device, flexible screens still cannot be found in retail stores. The reasons are mainly of technical and chemical nature, as Dr. Armin Wedel from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Polymer Research IAP explains: "Many developers of displays which you... view more...

Buckyballs boost antibody's chemotherapy payload
In the ongoing search for better ways to target anticancer drugs to kill tumors without making people sick, researchers find that nanoparticles called buckyballs might be used to significantly boost the payload of drugs carried by tumor-targeting antibodies. view more (2006-06-22)
NMR researchers unlock hydrogen's secrets to spot polymorphism in pharmaceuticals
Researchers at the University of Warwick and Astra Zeneca have found a new way to use solid-state NMR equipment to crack the secrets of hydrogen atoms and thus spot unwanted polymorphs in pharmaceuticals. view more (2007-10-18)
Hydrogen Peroxide's Link to Living Cells
If a circadian rhythm is like an orchestra - the united expression of the rhythms of millions of cells - a common chemical may serve as the conductor, or at least as the baton. view more (2009-11-04)
Gold, copper nanoparticles take center stage in the search for hydrogen production catalysts
X-ray studies at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory are pointing the way to less costly and more efficient catalysts for improving the performance of fuel cells. view more (2007-03-29)
For the future hydrogen economy, a tiny, self-powered sensor
Hydrogen has been called "the fuel of the future." But the gas is invisible, odorless and explosive at high concentrations, posing a safety problem for hydrogen-powered cars, filling stations and other aspects of the so-called hydrogen economy. view more (2006-05-25)
Invention could solve "bottleneck" in developing pollution-free cars
Hydrogen-powered cars that do not pollute the environment are a step closer thanks to a new discovery which promises to solve the main problem holding back the technology. view more (2006-12-05)
Paint used by Dutch masters turns into rat poison
The painters Willem Kalf, Jan Davidsz. de Heem and Balthasar van der Ast are particularly famed for their bright yellow orpiment ("royal yellow"). The researchers have shown that light causes a chemical reaction in this yellow which separates the sulphur and the arsenic. The sulphur is released from the canvas as sulphur dioxide and hydrogen... view more... (1999-05-17)
Portugal develops hydrogen fuel battery systems
A private capital company and two national research units took the first step towards the Hydrogen Society in Portugal in their launch of the construction of the first Portuguese prototypes of fuel battery systems, which will be presented within a year. view more (2002-06-26)
UT Knoxville and ORNL researchers turn algae into high-temperature hydrogen source
In the quest to make hydrogen as a clean alternative fuel source, researchers have been stymied about how to create usable hydrogen that is clean and sustainable without relying on an intensive, high-energy process that outweighs the benefits of not using petroleum to power vehicles. view more (2009-11-12)
