Drug discovery is like molecular Tetris. Chemists snap atoms together, adjusting the pieces until everything fits, and ...

Designing new reaction sequences to build complex materials can be a slow process, especially when each step involves multiple variables. A new machine learning–guided microfluidics platform could ...

A cartoon of robot-enabled inorganic materials synthesis. The robot selects powder precursors based on new criteria, mixes them by ball milling, moves them to an oven, and measures the results with ...

DeepMind has shared the discovery of 2.2 million new crystals – equivalent to nearly 800 years’ worth of knowledge. They introduce Graph Networks for Materials Exploration (GNoME), a new deep learning ...

Automation is nothing new in chemistry. Robots can synthesize peptides, and they make high-throughput screening possible. A new setup takes this even further, combining software and hardware in an ...

One of the important objectives of green chemistry is the use of eco-friendly solvents and catalysts to perform chemical reactions. Catalysts such as organocatalysts, enzymes, and ionic liquids have ...

David Gunn, Applications Manager at Milestone Inc., talks to AZoM about Parallel Microwave-Enhanced Synthesis for Reaction Screening. You have a range of products within your Microwave Synthesis ...

As an engineering plastic having high transparency and impact resistance, polycarbonate (PC) is employed in eyeglass lenses, camera lenses, DVDs, automobile headlights and bulletproof glass. The ...

Using fireworks is probably not the first idea to come to mind for making novel materials. But our team of researchers at University College London is currently harnessing the power of ‘controlled ...
