The solidity of concrete, the taste of chocolate, or the solubility of drugs – these are just a few examples of chemical or physical material properties which are affected by particle size. Thus, the ...

Physicists have proven theoretically that active sieving, as opposed to its passive counterpart, can improve the separation abilities of filtration systems. Active sieving also has the potential to ...

The exponentially increasing implementation of renewable energy systems, such as wind and solar energy, are urgently demanding the development of large-scale energy storage devices with flexibility, ...

A new cross-linking method creates 3-micron membranes with angstrom-scale pores, boosting efficiency in flow batteries by overcoming selectivity-permeability trade-offs. (Nanowerk News) Polymeric ...

Lithium is key to our electric, low-carbon future. The best known rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles and renewable energy storage rely on the silvery metal. But the supply of lithium is ...

Laser diffraction needs a smaller representative sample when compared to sieving. However, it can also use larger samples. For a dry-dispersed laser diffraction experiment, the sample size ranges ...

Researchers at University of New South Wales have reported details about a novel sieving-aids technology that improves the separation of metal fragments from other components when recycling ...
