Researchers have created a new 2D carbon material that is actually stronger than graphene. The material was created by researchers at Rice University, and they say that it is strong enough to prevent ...

Every year, over 92 million tons of textile waste end up in our municipal landfills. Fabrics such as synthetic nylon can sometimes take around 200 years to decompose. Modern Synthesis is a biotech ...

Researchers have developed very light and extremely strong material that can withstand extreme heat. The material could be useful for aerospace and other high-performance industries. Developed by ...

Engineers have fabricated a metamaterial that is not only strong but also stretchy. Their new method could enable stretchable ceramics, glass, and metals, for tear-proof textiles or stretchy ...

MIT engineers have now found a way to fabricate a metamaterial that is both strong and stretchy. The base material is typically highly rigid and brittle, but it is printed in precise, intricate ...
