Researchers have created a new class of materials called 'glassy gels' that are very hard and difficult to break despite containing more than 50% liquid. Coupled with the fact that glassy gels are ...

A serendipitous observation in a Chemical Engineering lab at Penn Engineering has led to a surprising discovery: a new class of nanostructured materials that can pull water from the air, collect it in ...

Nanoporous materials are structurally classified as materials having pore sizes typically less than 100 nm, whose properties are governed by matrix material as well as shape, size, and distribution of ...
