Tough and Stretchable Ionogels
Science Innovations
Researchers at NC State University have developed new materials that fall under the broad category of ionogels that are tough and stretchable. Ionogels are polymer networks that contain salts that are liquid at room temperature. Such salts are called ionic liquids. The researchers have made ionogels that are nearly 70% liquid, but have remarkable mechanical properties. They dissipate a lot of energy when deformed, which makes them very difficult to break. Ionogels have advant...

Chances of Life in Venus
Science Innovations
With an atmosphere thick with carbon dioxide, and a surface hot enough to melt lead, Venus is a scorched and suffocating wasteland where life as we know it could not survive. The planet’s clouds are similarly hostile, blanketing the planet in droplets of sulfuric acid caustic enough to burn a hole through human skin. A new study supports the longstanding idea that if life exists, it might make a home in Venus’ clouds. The study’s authors, from MIT, Cardiff Universi...

The small fish have many of the same genes and the same anatomy with the shark, but the dorsal and caudal fins, gills, stomach and heart, are thousands of times smaller! How do organs and tissues of this small fish stop growing very quickly? A multidisciplinary team led by scientists from the University of G...

Science Innovations
From rigid substrates, semi conductors are moving towards new, flexible substrates which have led to the fabrication of numerous devices. The Georgia tech researchers have created a material that acts like a second skin layer and is up to 200% more stretchable than its original dimension without significantly losing its electric current. The researchers say the soft flexible photo detectors could enhance the utility of medical wearable sensors and implantable devices, among o...
