Solubility equilibria involving sparingly soluble salts are fundamental to understanding chemical processes in various fields ...

Diazonium salt chemistry has emerged as a versatile and robust approach for tailoring the properties of various substrates. By utilising diazonium compounds to form covalently bonded organic layers, ...

All good research breaks new ground, but rarely does the research unearth truths that challenge the foundation of a science. That's what chemists have now done. Scientists have compressed sodium ...

New research led by Flinders University has shed light on one of chemistry's big mysteries by describing how simple salts exist near the surface of liquid solvents.

UPTON, N.Y. — High temperatures and ionizing radiation create extremely corrosive environments inside a nuclear reactor. To design long-lasting reactors, scientists must understand how ...

Chalmers researchers have developed a simple, light-based platform to study the mysterious “invisible glue” that binds materials at the nanoscale. Gold flakes floating in salt water reveal how quantum ...

Each year during winter weather, crews spread more than 60 million tons of salt on roads worldwide to melt ice. Although there’s mounting evidence that this salt taints the water supply, until now no ...

Seemingly contradictory materials are trapped together in two glittering diamonds from South Africa, shedding light on how ...
