Multilayer materials of cultural heritage such as historical materials and artwork are analysed as cross-section samples using microscopy and FTIR microscopy. Most commonly, these samples are embedded ...

In a recent article published in Gels, researchers from China developed multilayer porous plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gel artificial muscles using carbon nanotube-doped 3D-printed silicone ...

Milestones of porous materials with monomodal pore structures (Porous materials 1.0): (a) new zeolite topology, (b) organic zeolites, (c) mesoporous materials, and (d) extra-large pore zeolites.

Materials with porous features that have been particularly ordered on the nano-scale have key applications in drug delivery systems, diagnostics, optics, cosmetics, catalysis, coatings, bio-separation ...

Several factors, such as surface area, pore size distribution, temperature, pressure, and the nature of both the gas and porous material, influence the rate and extent of gas sorption. The size and ...
