Rendering flame retardant nontoxic with a new process

UMass Amherst research has potential application to remediate other difficult-to-degrade pollutants A team of environmental scientists from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and China has for the first time used a dynamic, two-step process to completely degrade a common flame-retardant chemical, rendering the persistent global pollutant nontoxic. This new process breaks down tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA)

Synthetic polar bear fur for heat insulation

For polar bears, the insulation provided by their fat, skin, and fur is a matter of survival in the frigid Arctic. For engineers, polar bear hair is a dream template for synthetic materials that might lock in heat just as well as the natural version. Now, materials scientists in China have developed such an insulator,

Analyzing sweat to diagnose diseases with a bandage-like biosensor

“Flexible and Superwettable Bands as a Platform toward Sweat Sampling and Sensing” Like other biofluids, sweat contains a wealth of information about what’s going on inside the body. However, collecting the fluid for analysis, usually by dripping or absorbing it from the skin’s surface, can be time-consuming and messy. Now, researchers have developed a bandage-like

Potential sustainable energy technology for the household refrigerator

Advance could reduce both annual energy consumption and cost. While many advancements have been in improving its efficiency, the refrigerator still consumes considerable amounts of energy each year. “Energy efficiency of a normal refrigerator is affected by the heat-insulating property of the thermal barriers of the freezer. This is due to its low inner temperature,”

Two-in-one packaging may increase drug efficacy and reduce side effects

Researchers have developed a speedy, controllable way to get two or more ingredients into the same tiny capsule and only have them mix when triggered by a signal like vibrations or heat Chemotherapy often comes with powerful side effects, and one of the reasons for this is that the drugs used to kill cancer cells

A Clean Energy Harvest Using Two of the Most Abundant Materials on Earth

‘This unassisted water splitting, which is very rare, does not require expensive or scarce resources.’ Team reports first ‘unassisted’ water splitting using only hematite and silicon as solar absorbers, Finding an efficient solar water splitting method to mine electron-rich hydrogen for clean power has been thwarted by the poor performance of hematite. But by ‘re-growing’

Quantum “spooky action at a distance” travels at least 10,000 times faster than light

On this occasion, however, Einstein was wrong Quantum entanglement, one of the odder aspects of quantum theory, links the properties of particles even when they are separated by large distances. When a property of one of a pair of entangled particles is measured, the other “immediately” settles down into a state compatible with that measurement.
