Dont you think its crazy that some life boats are not able to save a life? I do so now i present a material that will not sink, not even if water gets inside! Aerogel also called frozen smoke is 99,8% empty space which makes...
Rare earth elementals are use in the manufacture of wind turbines, electric and hybrid cars, and consumer electronics due to their powerful magnetic properties. But these materials are very expensive and is almost exclusively...
Carbon nanotubes is a new found material that is flexible and strong at the same time, can be used for almost anything and will not break! Not only can it be good to use in your tires these tubes can be used around or as...
Aerogels are among the lowest-density, lightest solids known to man. Holding an aerogel in your hand does indeed feel like holding a bit of a cloud. They’re actually very good insulators and have already been used to line...

What if you were able to fly just like an insect? Shrilk is a plastic material that is extremely flexible. This material is made from discarded shrimp shells and proteins derived from silk. Shrilk is thin, clear, flexible, and...
A research group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a relatively simple, fast and effective method of depositing uniform, ultrathin layers of platinum atoms on a surface. A New method for...
We were recently on a school trip to the motor museum in motala and I found it to be rather interesting even though I don’t have a big interest for vehicles. The thing that caught my attention was to see how things have...
Rare earth materials are vital to the manufacture of wind turbines, electric and hybrid cars, and consumer electronics due to their powerful magnetic properties. Yet they are also expensive and come almost entirely from one...
