Ionomers are hydrophobic polymers that contain a small fraction of ionic groups. The ionic groups form multiplets or polar micro-domains in bulk, which confers the unique properties of crack and ...

Researchers employ a single-phase reaction of metal ions and an organic compound to create conductive, well-organized colloidal coordination nanosheets. (Nanowerk News) Coordination nanosheets are a ...

The sequential synthesis mechanism involving colloidal solutions of metal ions such as nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) along with benzenehexathiol (BHT) solution can generate highly ...

To answer your question more explicitly, there is no clear evidence on which to base the choice of intravenous fluid resuscitation agent in patients with septic shock. Colloids have physiologic ...

(Nanowerk News) MIT engineers have united the principles of self-assembly and 3-D printing using a new technique, which they highlight today in the journal Advanced Materials ("Direct-Write Freeform ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

One of my patients drinks homemade colloidal silver solution every day. He is convinced it has a potent antibiotic effect as well as other health benefits. His wife reports that she has been cured of ...
