Known for their exceptional porosity that enables the trapping or transport of molecules, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) take the form of a powder, which makes them difficult to format. For the first ...

Scientists have developed an innovative ‘liquid-phase carbonization’ method to recycle waste polyethylene terephthalate into porous micro/nanostructured hard carbon enriched with intrinsic carbon ...

The world's demand for alternative fuels and sustainable chemical products has prompted many scientists to look in the same direction for answers: converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon monoxide ...

A new company, Porous Liquid Technologies, has launched to commercialize technology invented by two British ­scientists—Stuart James of Queen’s ­University Belfast and Andrew I. Cooper of the ...

Scientists have developed 'porous liquids': Nanoparticles, that are able to separate gas molecules of different sizes from each other, float - finely distributed - in a solvent. The porous liquids may ...

HAVE you ever stopped to consider the technological marvel that is the humble kitchen sponge? Liquids tend to be unruly, sploshy things, but, with a quick swipe, a sponge can soak up and transport ...
