Transistors are becoming ever smaller and more energy-efficient, and now researchers at Lund University have developed a solution that continues that trend."We have developed a simple hydrocarbon molecule that changes shape and at the same time goes from...
Plastic is very practical as a packaging material. It's easy to process, transparent, and is suitable as a barrier between what we want to wrap and the dirt and bacteria from the outside world. Unfortunately, plastic is made from oil, and it is not...
A startup called ByFusion has developed a solution to use both non-recyclable and recyclable plastic and turn them into building blocks. These blocks are called ByBlocks, and they have 16-by-8-by-8-inch dimensions. They can be used for all types of constructions....
Researchers at RMIT University in Australia have developed a method where stem cells can be used to help the body build new bone. This method is unique as it uses sound waves to stimulate the stem cells.The challenge of using stem cells to heal bone fractures is to...
Plastic is a very difficult material to recycle because it comes in various sorts with different compositions and characteristics. Now, scientists in Denmark have developed a camera technology that can tell the difference between 12 types of plastic. These include PE,...
