Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology and the University of Kiel have provided experimental evidence ...

For many reasons chemical experiments aren't as popular as they once were. That's a shame because chemistry is one of the geekiest things a Geekdad can do. Chem experiments require only a small amount ...

THE days of that ancient bugbear, the “Guide to Knowledge,” containing in the form of questions and answers a concise résumé of all “the scientific facts that a well-educated boy or girl should have ...

Researchers used AI, automation, and robotics to rapidly test organic redox flow batteries, revealing a fundamental molecular ...

Scientists have developed a method to extract the spectral density for molecules in solvent using simple resonance Raman experiments -- a method that captures the full complexity of chemical ...

THIS is a practical, and, in some respects, an admirable, manual for chemical laboratories. The experiments described in the first half of the book instruct in metric measurements, glass manipulation, ...

THE PURPOSE of green chemistry and green engineering is to help clean up the chemical enterprise—that is, to serve as a form of molecular-level pollution prevention. In practice, that means developing ...

Scientists have found a way to strip valuable metals out of dead batteries using a solvent built from urine and common acetic acid, turning a waste stream into a surprisingly powerful recycling tool.

Rollins Edwards, who lives in Summerville, S.C., shows one of his many scars from exposure to mustard gas in World War II military experiments. More than 70 years after the exposure, his skin still ...
