Nanostructured materials are key to food safety, offering antimicrobial properties and smart packaging solutions that extend ...

While HSPI remains a wholly owned subsidiary of HPQ Silicon Inc., technology supplier PyroGenesis is in the final stages of exercising its option to acquire a 50% interest in HSPI, as first announced ...

At Rice University, a research lab's signature keepsake has helped perfect a method for growing patterned diamond surfaces ...

Superhydrophobic surfaces—those famously "never-wet" materials that make water bead up and roll away—have a stubborn weakness: hot water. Once temperatures climb above roughly 40 degrees Celsius, many ...

An international research team has demonstrated how conventional radiative cooling coatings can be optimized to further reduce building surface temperatures, cutting energy consumption, while also ...

You can trace these and other powder coating problems back to one issue: parts hanging. Getting it wrong can make powder coating an excessive, unpredictable constraint. Getting it right can relieve ...
