“Holy grail” electric vehicle battery takes design cues from BLT sandwich
A bacon, lettuce and tomato (BLT) sandwich is a good solution for hunger. Interestingly, scientists have also looked to this sandwich to solve a common issue with electric vehicle (EV) batteries. A lithium metal battery whose design is inspired by the sandwich addressed needle-like growths that undermine battery performance. Scientists also touted the lithium metal […]

Shipping industry turns its eyes to hydrogen to replace carbon-rich bunker fuel
The shipping industry produces about three percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, thanks to carbon dioxide-rich bunker fuel. However, the recent push toward zero emissions has prompted shipping lines to look for greener alternatives to power their vessels. Industry experts have eyed hydrogen as a response to this challenge. Currently, hydrogen-powered vessels are used mainly […]

Researchers look into developing periodic tables for molecules
A research team from the Tokyo University of Technology (Tokyo Tech) has proposed a “periodic table” for molecules with different geometrical symmetries. The team’s study, published in Nature Communications, introduces a new approach that’s based on keen observation of the behavior of valence electrons. Valence electrons are found in the outer shell of atoms, and they […]
