• Less than a nanometer thick, stronger and more versatile than steel
  

  Scientists create stable nanosheets containing boron and hydrogen atoms with potential applications in nanoelectronics and quantum information technology. What's thinner than thin? One answer is two-dimensional materials -- exotic materials of science with length and width but only one or two atoms more

• New porous material promising for making renewable energy from water
  

  One prospective source of renewable energy is hydrogen gas produced from water with the aid of sunlight. Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have developed a material, nanoporous cubic silicon carbide, that exhibits promising properties to capture solar energy and split water for hydrogen g more

• Double-duty catalyst generates hydrogen fuel while cleaning up wastewater
  

  Hydrogen is a pollution-free energy source when it's extracted from water using sunlight instead of fossil fuels. But current strategies for "splitting" or breaking apart water molecules with catalysts and light require the introduction of chemical additives to expedite the process. Now, researchers more

• Battling Corrosion in Refineries
  

  Corrosion in refinery operations has been, and still is, the subject of many studies, papers, courses and web forums. Although a lot of what has been written shows that significant progress in understanding corrosion has been made, it also makes it more

• CO2 Gas Calibration with eVol®, the digital analytical syringe
  

  Using eVol® for injection of different volumes of CO2, CEP/TEP was able to achieve calibration of their instrument with levels of accuracy and precision not previously obtained using manual syringes. In addition, the needles on the eVol® syringes all more

The Atmospheres of the Solar System

We’re heading out of this world for today’s post, to examine the atmospheric compositions of the other planets in the solar system, as well as our own. Practically every other planet in our solar system can be considered to have an atmosphere, apart from perhaps the extremely thin, transient atmosph more

A Guide to Acids, Acid Strength, and Concentration

Even if you’re not a chemist, you’ll doubtless remember learning about acids back in school. They’re routinely described as strong or weak, concentrated or dilute. But what’s the difference between a strong acid and a concentrated acid? Explaining that is a little trickier than it sounds; in this gr more

The biggest stories in science 2017

As we head into 2018, it’s time to take a look back at some of the biggest science news stories over the past year. This year’s science news featured poisonous frogs, battery fires, element creation, and more! more

• Atomic hydrogen interactions with gas-phase coronene cations: hydrogenation versus fragmentation

  Sequential hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) cations drives a gradual transition from a planar to a puckered geometry and from an aromatic to an aliphatic electronic structure. The resulting H-induced weakening of the molecular structure together with the exothermic nature of th more

• On the gas-phase formation of the HCO− anion: Ac- curate quantum study of the H−+CO radiative associ- ation and HCO radiative electron attachment

  The hydrogen anion has never been observed in the interstellar medium, but it is most likely present in some interstellar regions. Since a direct detection appears especially difficult, im- proving the knowledge of the astrochemical processes involving this anion should be valuable in defining a way more

• Drastic rearrangement of self-assembled hydrogen-bonded tapes in a molecular crystal

  A 2 : 1 hydrogen-bonded crystal of 2-pyrrolidone and chloranilic acid shows structural phase transitions accompanied by the drastic rearrangement of hydrogen-bonded tapes. Such a phenomenon is attributed to the selective and directional character of hydrogen bonds. more
