Results for "plastic"
Have Your Cake…and Eat the Packaging Too
Researchers study chickpea flour as a potential building block for biodegradable (and edible) packaging materials.
Printable Water Sensor
A Spanish-Israeli team of scientists developed a new, versatile plastic-composite sensor that can detect tiny amounts of water. The 3D printable material is cheap, flexible and non-toxic and: it changes the colour.
Advances in Nanostructured Metallic Materials and Composites
A special section presents the current state of research in the field of ultrafine grained metallic materials and composites, with emphasis on processes, properties and microstructures.
Memory Allocation in the Hippocampus
Thiago França and José Monserrat discuss how episodic memories are coded by the hippocampus.
Write, Read, and Erase Using Light
A team of physicists developed a new method of storing information in fully transparent plastic foils.
New Probe to Reduce Premature Births
A team of researchers from the Vanderbilt University in Nashville, USA, developed a visually guided Raman spectroscopy probe for cervical assessment during pregnancy which could help in diminishing premature births.
Quick Response Codes in 3D-Printed Structures
Quick response code ‘clouds’ embedded in three-dimensional parts for product authentication.
