The material delays the formation of ice crystals and reduces the adhesion of ice layers. Thanks to an innovative production method, the coating is very robust and adheres to numerous surfaces. I ...
Although ice-repellent coatings have been available for a while, they have always been quite sensitive and tend to separate from the surfaces they are supposed to protect easily.
A material coating, whose light refraction properties can be precisely switched between different states, has been developed by an interdisciplinary research team from the Chemistry and Physics de ...
A clean, promising technique for producing hydrogen is water electrolysis with renewable energy sources. There is high freshwater demand; however, it presents challenges to areas with plentiful water supplies.
<p>The water electrolysis method, a promising avenue for hydrogen production, relies on substantial freshwater consumption, thereby limiting the regions available with water resources required for water electrolysis . Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have developed highly durable electrodes without precious metals to enable direct hydrogen production from seawater.</p>
