Painting Silk with Water and Light
A naturally occurring structural protein (silk fibroin) is used to generate a large inverse opal. Selective exposure to water and/or light can change silk’s conformation thus painting different structural colors.
Tuning the Redox Properties of Perylene Diimide in Organic Rechargeable Batteries
Researchers from the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research demonstrate a simple and effective approach for tuning the redox properties of perylene diimides as high-voltage cathodes for organic sodium-ion batteries.
Plasma Pretreatment Processes Improve Plastic Coatings Twofold
A new study shows that propanol-based plasma pretreatment of plastics not only improves adhesion of coatings to plastics but improves the coatings themselves as well.
