In a groundbreaking discovery, researchers at New York’s Cornell University found that tiny metal particles bond best at a precise supersonic speed but slowly begin to lose grip when traveling faster.

Among the promising experimental battery architectures scientists are exploring is one that uses pure lithium metal for the anode, rather than the mix of materials used in today's lithium-ion devices.

Inverse reports that scientists have recorded video of atoms bonding and separating for the very first time. The research team used transmission electron microscopy in collaboration with the SALVE ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University, in collaboration with colleagues in South Korea and Taiwan, have discovered that a unique cobalt-based molecule with metal–metal bonds can function as a spin ...

The latest short science news items from C&EN. Indoles are important precursors to many biomolecules and drugs, and their chemistry is well understood. Chemists know how to get a boron atom onto the ...

A new type of 3D-printed adhesive could change how we join materials together. So far, scientists have developed two new methods that can create extremely strong bonds at the pore level, eliminating ...
