Dr. Rich Carter founded a new “organocatalyst” . Making drug development much easier. Not only inexpensive but eco friendly too.
This new break through is not only cheaper, but more efficient. Quote “It provides solubility that’s more than 10 times higher than related compounds now being used”.

A team of researchers lead by Toronto chemistry and physics professor R.J. Dwayne Miller has demonstrated that gold gets harder, not softer, when heated to high temperatures. The scientists heated the gold at greater than one billion degrees per second. Mr. Miller stated “The gold was heated at rates too fast for the electrons absorbing [...]

It has long been hypothesized by scientists that a solution to global warning would be in plankton. Plankton are known for their ability to absorb large amounts of carbon. Iron helps plankton grow quickly, so the idea was to stimulate the plankton population with iron in order to get rid of carbon dioxide in the [...]

In December of 2008, scientists in China developed a coating to put on aluminum foil that would protect it from water. It is a superhydrophobic coating. That means that it is very afraid of water, or that it acts like a raincoat.  The superhydrophobic coating protects the foil from corrosion. It is not perfect yet, because the [...]

Calcium phosphates were developed over 20 years ago as alternatives to polymer-based cements for mending damaged bones. Their chemical similarity to bone means that they are good repair materials and they are less toxic and more fracture-resistant than polymer cements. However, the absence of silicon – thought to be an important trace element in the [...]

   Almost every person is not content with themselves. Body dysmorphic disorder is a problem people have to where they are obsessed with flaws that only they see and no one else.  The typical “flaws” one focuses on is the face,body odor, and hair.This disorder can even affect ability to work, attend school, or even be [...]

DEADLY FOAM EXPLOSION !!!! when a plastic foam is crated it is light and flexible however metal based foam is heavy , strong and not flexible.
scientists have developed a process in which they can make a hybrid of both for more strategic engineering purposes.
It is significant because its a new way to use chemistry to [...]
