Engineers develop process to 3D print piezoelectric materials
We use Piezoelectric materials in various things like cell phones and musical greeting cards. Piezoelectric materials were originally discovered in the 19th century. Since then the advances in manufacturing technology has led…
Global Nanotechnology Market is expected to grow 17.21%
Nanotechnology is well-defined as the science, engineering, and technology which are piloted at the nanoscale level, of about 1 to 100 nanometres. Nanotechnology is the application of particularly small things and can…
Drinking water sucked from the dusty desert air using Hybrid Hydrogel
A simple device that can capture its own weight in water from fresh air and then release that water when warmed by sunlight could provide a secure new source of drinking water…
Novel sensors could enable smarter Textiles
A team of engineers at the University of Delaware is developing next-generation smart textiles by creating flexible carbon nanotube composite coatings on a wide range of fibers, including cotton, nylon and wool….
