Quick clay collapse can be both dangerous and costly. New research will help us understand more about why the clay is so ...

Researchers use AI to visualize reaction pathways of colloidal quantum dots as subway maps, clarifying synthesis and speeding ...

Professor Joongoo Kang's team from the Department of Physics and Chemistry at DGIST and Professor Sohee Jeong's team from the ...

DNA is a fascinating macromolecule that guides protein production and enables cell replication. It has also found applications in nanoscience and materials design. Colloidal crystals are ordered ...

Colloidal particles have long served as both model systems for atoms and molecules as well as fundamental building blocks for advanced functional materials. While anisotropic particles are often ...

As the pellet moves through the water, any microplastic particles it encounters get stuck to its soft dendritic colloid particles. The fun doesn't stop there, however. Each microcleaner additionally ...

The system that captures microplastics from water functions in a single cycle. In a new paper, researchers at North Carolina State University show proof of concept for a system that, in a single cycle ...

Researchers at the University of Bayreuth have developed a method that makes objects on a magnetic field invisible within a particle stream. Until now, this so-called cloaking had only been studied ...

Scientists are exploring “active matter,” a type of material that can move independently. Unlike everyday materials like plastic and wood, active matter behaves in a lifelike way. This is because it’s ...
