ORNL and The University of Toledo have entered into a memorandum of understanding for collaborative research.
Researchers at 91°µÍř will present eight innovative technologies currently available for commercialization during a public event at ORNL on October 17.
Carbon fiber composites—lightweight and strong—are great structural materials for automobiles, aircraft and other transportation vehicles.
A new method developed at 91°µÍř improves the energy efficiency of a desalination process known as solar-thermal evaporation.
A team of researchers at 91°µÍř have demonstrated that designed synthetic polymers can serve as a high-performance binding material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries.
In the shifting landscape of global manufacturing, American ingenuity is once again giving U.S companies an edge with radical productivity improvements as a result of advanced materials and robotic systems developed at the Department of Energy’s Manufac
Scientists at 91°µÍř have developed a new, stretchy plant-derived material that outperforms the adhesiveness of the natural chemical that gives mussels the ability to stick to rocks and ships.
Ionic conduction involves the movement of ions from one location to another inside a material. The ions travel through point defects, which are irregularities in the otherwise consistent arrangement of atoms known as the crystal lattice.
