Nanostructures can pose big measurement problems
Materials scientists will tell you that to best understand, characterize and eventually utilize the properties of a specific material, you have to be able to define how the atoms within it are arranged. view more (2007-04-30)
New hybrid microscope probes nano-electronics
A new form of scanning microscopy that simultaneously reveals physical and electronic profiles of metal nanostructures has been demonstrated at JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and University of Colorado at Boulder. view more (2006-10-30)

A model of Pancreas based on the insulin extracting gel-polymer system
If the blood glucose overcontents (permissible content is 0.8-1 mg/ml), the pancreas be-gins to extract some inculin by which an unnecessary glucose is eliminated from blood and is assimilated by tissues. view more (1999-08-20)
NC State Engineers Discover Nanoparticles Can Break On Through
In a finding that could speed the use of sensors or barcodes at the nanoscale, North Carolina State University engineers have shown that certain types of tiny organic particles, when heated to the proper temperature, bob to the surface of a layer of a thin polymer film and then can reversibly recede below the surface when heated a second time. view more (2008-09-17)
Problem: Implant Infection. Solution: Nanotech Surfaces
Orthopaedic implants help millions of Americans stay active. But these medical devices are prone to infection, forcing patients back to surgery for repair or replacement. Now, for the first time, a team of engineers has shown that zinc or titanium oxide nanosurfaces can reduce the presence of bacteria, a technique that can be applied to implants... view more...

New system for storing lithium-polymer energy
The basque technology centre CIDETEC is working on a project about lithium-polymer energy with the collaboration of the companies CEGASA and ZIGOR. view more (2002-09-09)
Conductive plastics made from natural, renewable, environmentally friendly soybeans
Polymer matrix composites with carbon black are very interesting materials. This is because the carbon black can be used as filler material and can beneficially modify the electrical and mechanical properties of the used matrixes. view more (2007-05-30)
Looking deeply into polymer solar cells
Researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology and the University of Ulm have made the first high-resolution 3D images of the inside of a polymer solar cell. view more (2009-09-14)
Press invite: 26th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors
A laser-based system that could revolutionise both medical imaging and communications, progress towards building the first solid state `quantum` computer and developments in nanotechnology are just some the topics being featured at the 26th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors. The five-day conference is being organised by the... view more... (2002-07-10)
Cell death following blood 'reflow' injury tracked to natural toxin
Researchers at Johns Hopkins have discovered what they believe is the "smoking gun" responsible for most tissue and organ damage after a period of blood oxygen loss followed by a sudden restoration of blood oxygen flow. view more (2006-11-30)
Insights into polymer film instability could aid high tech industries
While exploring the properties of polymer formation, a team of scientists at the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) has made a fundamental discovery about these materials that could improve methods of creating the stable crystalline films that are widely used in electronics applications-and also offer insight into a range of... view more...

Researchers develop better membranes for water treatment, drug delivery
Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a new generation of biomimetic membranes for water treatment and drug delivery. view more (2007-11-30)
Theory predicts aging process in DVDs, plexiglas, other polymer glasses
Polymer glasses are versatile plastics widely used in applications ranging from aircraft windshields to DVDs. Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a theory that predicts how these materials age. The theory also explains why motions at the molecular level can have macroscopic consequences. view more (2007-04-24)
New NIH Funding to Support UAB Total Joint Replacement Research Collaboration
Newly announced National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding will expand the reach of ongoing University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) research into a unique nanostructured coating to improve the performance and longevity of total joint replacement components. view more (2009-07-17)
Molds for Molecules
Molecular imprints in polymers as reaction vessels for pharmaceuticals research Materials with the tiniest of cavities, which can take up other molecules as "guests", play a meaningful role in science and technology. A particularly interesting process for the synthesis of materials with precisely fitted cavities is known as molecular imprinting.... view more... (2002-11-28)
New gel pill could mean an end to injections
Scientists in India have developed a new gel that is taken orally and is capable of delivering drugs to manage diseases often requiring an injection. The research, published in the journal Polymer International, suggests the gel could offer a painless way of treating diabetes, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, bowel cancer, constipation and... view more...

Historians help compile record of 50,000 lives
Scholars at the University of Essex have contributed 75 biographies to the new Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, a 60-volume publication charting more than 50,000 lives. Researchers from six departments and centres at the University were among more than 12,500 contributors to the British Academy-funded project. view more (2005-02-01)
Researcher discovers new materials
A research team led by Carnegie Mellon University Materials Science and Biomedical Engineering Professor Prashant Kumta has discovered a nanocrystalline material that is cheaper, more stable and produces a higher quality energy storage capacity for use in a variety of industrial and portable consumer electronic products. view more (2006-07-11)
Founder's Lecture will Recognise the Success of Colloid Chemist
Professor Terence Cosgrove, University of Bristol, UK, will deliver the Founder's Lecture 'Chains and Bondage' at the Society of Chemical Industry (SCI) Headquarters, London on 21 April 2004. The Founder's Lecture is awarded to figures of distinction in the colloid or surface chemistry fields. A Professor of Physical Chemistry, Terence Cosgrove is... view more... (2004-04-19)
