Intrigued by the properties of ion channel proteins commonly observed in cells, researchers have developed the first synthetic mechanosensitive potassium channel using a newly developed aromatic ...

Researchers demonstrate how they can overcome a persistent challenge known as dendrites to create a metal battery that performs nearly as well as a lithium-ion battery, but relies on potassium -- a ...

The battery start-up Group1 has emerged from stealth with plans to commercialize a cathode material for potassium-ion batteries that could be an alternative to increasingly expensive lithium-based ...

Intrigued by the properties of ion channel proteins commonly observed in cells, Tokyo Tech researchers have developed the first synthetic mechanosensitive potassium channel using a newly developed ...

A battery with a potassium cathode and anode could compete with lithium-ion. The potassium battery also self heals by combining gentle heat with high surface mobility. A metal battery in general, ...

In 2010 the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) began modernizing their monographs [1]. As a part of this effort, test methods ...

Potassium nitrate (KNO 3), known historically as saltpeter or the mineral niter, is a common salt with multiple uses. It has been known since antiquity; an early appearance in the chemical literature ...

The launch of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are just days away, and a lot of the talk about the new devices are their larger, ion-strengthened glass screens. Now the American Chemical Society has created a ...
