Sulfur is an abundantly available chemical element that is often derived as a byproduct from desulphurization activities in chemical industries and petroleum refineries. Elemental sulfur has conventionally been used for the production of hydrosulfuric acid and fertilizers. The shift towards a circular economy where byproducts are to be used in recy...

Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques have become more popular in the recent times due to its ability to enable low cost objects, leading to saving considerable amount of time, labor, and material. The advent of large-scale additive manufacturing techniques, has further led to the development of more advanced technologies such as big area additive...

An autonomous vehicle is poised to witness adoption of breakthrough sensing solutions such as solid-state LiDARs for depth sensing and Blockchain for data security. Autonomous vehicl...

Encapsulation is used to preserve/protect various substances within another material at microscale sizes (microencapsulation) and at nanoscale sizes (nanoencapsulation). The material encapsulated is referred to as the ‘core’ whereas the encapsulates is referred to as the ‘shell’. The core material for different nanocapsules differs in size,...

The increasing demand for high performance and cost-effective materials in various industries such as consumer electronics, automotive, and others is boosting the growth and enhancing the adoption potential of conductive polymers. Moreover, the dimensional stability, structural strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance characteristics are also...
