A collaboration between scientists at Cambridge and UCL has led to the discovery of a new form of ice that more closely resembles liquid water than any other and may hold the key to understanding this ...

Researchers have developed a new type of cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries by turning a crystalline MXene into an amorphous structure. This amorphous V2CTx cathode delivers high capacity ...

Scientists in Italy have discovered that carbon dioxide can form a glass, the British journal Nature reports on Thursday. Under extremely high pressures of up to half a million atmospheres, molecules ...

(Nanowerk News) Many substances with different chemical and physical properties, from diamonds to graphite, are made up of carbon atoms. Amorphous forms of solid carbon do not have a fixed crystal ...

An amorphous diamond - one that lacks the crystalline structure of diamond, but is every bit as hard - has been created by a Stanford-led team of researchers. Graduate student Yu Lin loads glassy ...

Polymeric amorphous solid dispersions are the most commonly used technology, but amorphous APIs remain inherently unstable. A large percentage of small-molecule APIs in development today suffer from ...

University of Houston Scientist has been awarded a grant to research the use of amorphous materials. Bill Stamps tells us where the research could lead. “So we need to make a memory which per given ...

'Amorphous ice' forms when water is rapidly cooled to form a disordered glass-like solid rather than the common form of ice, which is crystalline. Now researchers have found a surprising degree of ...

Interpretation of calorimetric data is tricky. The author suggests 10 questions that should be asked of any calorimetric method, along with the rationales behind them. The dry powder inhaler (DPI) is ...
