Whisky-inspired chemicals could help power a new generation of microscopic machines, according to researchers who have ...

Reactive particles built inside the clay itself covered four times more ground, reaching the layers that defeat most ...

A large-scale fluid simulation tracking 100,000 particles as they settle through turbulent water has identified a previously unknown convective mixing effect at the leading edge of the particle cloud.

Lacquers, paint, concrete—and even ketchup or orange juice: Suspensions are widespread in industry and everyday life. By a suspension, materials scientists mean a liquid in which tiny, insoluble solid ...

In a twist on conventional wisdom, researchers have discovered that in ocean-like fluids with changing density, tiny porous particles can sink faster than larger ones, thanks to how they absorb salt.
