Researchers have created a spray-on polyurea nanocomposite coating reinforced with functionalized graphene. The coating delivers high strength and stretchability, strong adhesion across substrates, ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The development of materials that can reliably bridge the physical gap between humans and machines has remained a significant challenge in modern technology. As human-machine ...

Since its discovery in 2004, this single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb structure has demonstrated a remarkable combination of characteristics that set it apart from any other known ...

High-temperature superconductors, exemplified by materials like Bi-2223, have long grappled with limitations such as low critical current density and inadequate magnetic flux pinning. Variation of the ...

A simple gas-phase method produces a form of graphene whose ability to repel water rivals that of lotus leaves. The finding may lead to an inexpensive way to make bulk quantities of the material for ...
