Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) researchers have overcome a barrier to using a more affordable, dry process for ...

Although they barely cover a fingertip, these carbon fiber snippets are the longest to be incorporated into a battery film, allowing faster transfer of electrons.

Rather than completely burning up when a spacecraft reenters Earth's atmosphere, its heat shield's outer surface is ...

Penn materials scientist Shoji Hall and colleagues have found that manipulating the surface of water can allow scientists to ...

The use of advanced carbon-fiber composites made the A350 lighter, which makes its lowest airspeeds before stall better than the previous generation. That material also dramatically increased the ...

An analysis of thousands of forest plots reveals an underappreciated link between animal biodiversity and carbon storage ...

These photosynthetically active algae absorb carbon dioxide and store it as energy-rich oils, which researchers then ...

Dickinson presents its portfolio of “metamaterials,” looking to collaborate with industry partners to demonstrate their ...

Carbon fibers are essential in aviation, wind energy, and lightweight construction. However, since they are based on petroleum, their production has been very harmful to the environment. A research ...
