Novel chemical design makes hard crystals stretchy
Researchers hope to use chemical structure to target and trap impurities in water
09-Dec-2021 -
Researchers have discovered a new way to make crystals stretchy, a modification that could enable them to act as very effective nanofilters.
"Picture a diamond that behaves like a rubber band," says Assistant Professor of Chemistry Chenfeng Ke. His research team has designed a new type of porous, ...
