Macromolecules in diverse phases can adsorb onto natural systems, composite materials, and thin-film devices. In a new report now published in Science Advances, Yuma Morimitsu and a research team in ...

To combat water scarcity, producing water from unconventional sources is strategically important. One promising approach is atmospheric water harvesting, a technology proposed in recent years to ...

Every day, countless substances cling to surfaces around us without becoming part of the material itself. This fascinating ...

Applications of adsorption of small drug particles at the surface of large excipients were introduced, and different factors affecting adsorption process were discussed and summarized. Several ...

Adsorption is a phenomenon in which molecules or ions from a fluid phase (gas or liquid) are attracted and retained on the surface of a solid phase (adsorbent). Adsorption is different from absorption ...

A research team has shown that microplastics do not interact with dissolved organic matter in a uniform way: their polymer ...

A research team has made a breakthrough in surface science by introducing a new active mechanism of adsorption. Such adsorption-based phenomena, in which molecules are attracted onto a solid surface, ...

Nitrogen makes up about four fifths of the air, yet many industries still need to produce it in a pure form. The reason is ...
