"...we can turn it into something that behaves like a hard, high-strength material or something that's quite flexible, like a rubber band."

Researchers at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) have created a new type of flexible plastic that can change

The material can be tempered into different shapes — like steel in the hands of a blacksmith — and could someday transform space travel, recycling and more.

Researchers at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) have investigated the fundamental physics of non-Newtonian fluids using piezoelectric nanoparticles, which vary in reaction to pressure.

The firm has expanded its workforce by 15%

Credit: credit MWRD.jpg As city populations boom and the need grows for sustainable energy and water, scientists and engineers with the University of Chicago and partners are looking towards artificial intelligence to build new systems to deal with wastewater. Two new projects will test out ways to make "intelligent" water systems to recover nutrients and clean water. "Water is an indispensable resource of our society, as it is required for sustaining life and economic prosperity," said Junhong...
