Efficient thermal management in polymers is essential for developing lightweight, high-strength materials with multifunctional capabilities.
The disclosure is directed to optimized fiber geometries for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers with increased compressive strength per unit cost. The disclosed fiber geometries reduce the material processing costs as well as increase the compressive strength.
By engineering the Serine Integrase Assisted Genome Engineering (SAGE) genetic toolkit in an industrial strain of Aspergillus niger, we have established its proof of principle for applicability in Eukaryotes.
A novel and cost-effective process for the activation of carbon fibers was established.

A novel method that prevents detachment of an optical fiber from a metal/alloy tube and allows strain measurement up to higher temperatures, about 800 C has been developed. Standard commercial adhesives typically only survive up to about 400 C.
We present a comprehensive muti-technique approach for systematic investigation of enzymes generated by wastewater Comamonas species with hitherto unknown functionality to wards the depolymerization of plastics into bioaccessible products for bacterial metabolism.
Test facilities to evaluate materials compatibility in hydrogen are abundant for high pressure and low temperature (<100C).
Detection of gene expression in plants is critical for understanding the molecular basis of plant physiology and plant responses to drought, stress, climate change, microbes, insects and other factors.
This technology identifies enzymatic routes to synthesize amide oligomers with defined sequence to improve polymerization of existing materials or enable polymerization of new materials. Polymers are generally composed of one (e.g. Nylon 6) or two (e.g.
ORNL contributes to developing the concept of passive CO2 DAC by designing and testing a hybrid sorption system. This design aims to leverage the advantages of CO2 solubility and selectivity offered by materials with selective sorption of adsorbents.
