Nature creates layered materials like bone and mother-of-pearl that become less sensitive to defects as they grow. Now researchers have created, using biomimetic proteins patterned on squid ring teeth, composite layered 2D materials that are resistant to breaking and extremely stretchable.
“Researchers rarely reported this interface property for the bone and nacre because it was difficult to measure experimentally,” said
If we had to choose one word to characterize our current global industrial climate, it just might be “anxiety.” There’s daily trepidation about whether the U.S. economy is being hurled into a recession and if inflationary pressures are taking enough grip to make it so. But the Federal Reserve is hesitant to say so and has put the brakes on

Researchers at Swansea University will work with Tata Steel UK to develop solar panels that can be printed onto buildings.
Whereas traditional solar cells are manufactured from silicon and require a lot of energy to produce, a new type of cell called a perovskite solar cell (PSC) is cheaper and lighter. It can be made locally using widely available materials
Researchers have created a new glass-ceramic that emits light in response to mechanical stress, a property known as mechanoluminescence. With further development, the new material could be used to create a light source that is switched on by mechanical stress. This could be useful for monitoring stress in artificial joints in the body or providing warnings of dangerous stress or … Read More
