A first-of-its-kind nanoparticle catalyst mimics natural processes to break down plastic and produce valuable new products

Oct 22, 2020 (Nanowerk News) While plastics recycling is not new science, current processes don’t make it economically worthwhile-- waste plastics get “down-cycled” into lower grade, less useful material. It’s a challenge that continues to be an obstacle in tackling a growing global pollution crisis in single use plastics. A...

Nanotechnology Now – Press Release: Timekeeping theory combines quantum clocks and Einstein’s relativity: Research reveals new time dilation phenomenon

Home > Press > Timekeeping theory combines quantum clocks and Einstein's relativity: Research reveals new time dilation phenomenonQuantum mechanics allows for a clock to move as if it were simultaneously traveling at two different speeds. New research finds that this leads to a correction in atomic clocks known as "quantum...
