In many parts of the world – particularly developing nations, where air conditioning isn't practical or affordable – people paint buildings' roofs white in order to reflect sunlight and thus keep ...

A new coating, however, has been created to keep that from happening. Designed to be applied to the surface of titanium prostheses, the polymer coating incorporates a fragment of a protein known as ...

Since the 1950s, scientists have worked around this problem by coating samples with a thin layer of gold before imaging. While this approach made electron microscopy possible for countless discoveries ...

Neural electrodes coated with a heparan sulfate mimetic show improved electrical performance and reduced tissue reactivity, ...

When exposed to the sky, the porous polymer passive daytime radiative cooling coating reflects sunlight and emits heat to attain significantly cooler temperatures than typical building materials or ...

Scientists have developed a new bio-synthetic coating for electronic components that could help merge AI with the human brain. They believe the polymer could overcome a fundamental challenge around ...

Ultrasonic spray coating parameters such as drug-to-polymer ratio and carrier gas flow impact coating thickness/profile and ...

The growing problem of antibiotic resistance is driving some researchers to seek alternative strategies for battling infectious microbes, including approaches that block bacteria from doing harm but ...

Advanced Polymer Coatings, based in Avon, has completed a tanker recoating contract for Spanish headquartered shipping line Marflet Marine. Advanced Polymer Coatings has applied its industry-leading ...

About 20 years ago American companies that produce high-powered rifle ammunition started using polymer tips on some of their bullets to achieve better flight characteristics during long-range shooting ...

Engineers have invented a high-performance exterior PDRC polymer coating with nano-to-microscale air voids that acts as a spontaneous air cooler and can be fabricated, dyed, and applied like paint on ...
