Scientists from the Skoltech Center for Energy Science and Technology (CEST) and the Institute for Problems of Chemical Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with researchers from ...

A Japanese study reveals that bilayer membranes formed from a water-soluble fullerene derivative possess properties very different from those of conventional lipid bilayer membranes such as cell ...

(Nanowerk News) Water molecules are never found alone — they are always hydrogen-bonded to other molecules of water or polar compounds. It is the character of this pervasive hydrogen bonding that is ...

(Nanowerk News) Separation processes are essential in the purification and concentration of a target molecule during water purification, removal of pollutants, and heat pumping, accounting for 10–15% ...

Molecular dynamics simulations have emerged as a pivotal tool for elucidating the intricate behaviour of fullerenes in various solvents, particularly water. Fullerenes, a unique class of carbon ...

Background The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is rapidly increasing with high ...

An all-round strong performer. Experiments and simulations suggest that electric field enhancements help curved carbon structures decorated with platinum atoms perform better as catalysts in water ...

*I'm guessing that you heard this news here first, dear readers. It was surprising five years ago and seems just as surprising today. *I'll point out that I haven't tried this treatment personally.

Water purification, gas separation, and storage applications require materials with high sensitivity. Porous graphene, which possesses uniform pore structures and unique adsorption properties, is an ...
