They describe the material as tPB, a transparent 3D material made solely of cellulose. Testing of the material showed it worked as well as standard drinking straws, with no signs of the collapse ...

Scientists in China have turned regular old bamboo into a transparent material that’s also resistant to fire and water, and suppresses smoke. Silica glass, made from sand, is still the go-to ...

Korean researchers have succeeded in developing an innovative transparent film using graphene. This development secures a new ...

The materials scientist, who works at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden, specializes in polymer composites and was interested in creating a more robust alternative to transparent plastic.

A team at the University of Colorado Boulder has earned a Guinness World Record for the most transparent material ever created. The lightweight, gel-like material made mostly of air is 97% to 99% ...

Additionally, this new “magical” material can also change to a transparent state, allowing IR and microwaves to pass through. It’s an intriguing discovery that is highlighted very well in ...

Transparent materials can generate electricity when exposed to light, even if they have a vanishingly small absorption of such light. Floquet Fermi liquid states are a variant of Fermi liquids ...

"The key to this achievement lies in creating 'Cerium-substituted Yttrium Iron Garnet (Ce:YIG)', a transparent magnetic material, employing a specialized laser heating technique," points out ...

Or a house with wooden windows? Probably not — unless you’ve heard of transparent wood. Made by modifying wood’s natural structure, this material has been proposed as a sturdy, eco-friendly plastic ...

In this review we shall focus on the femtosecond micromachining of bulk transparent materials — that is, materials that do not have any linear absorption at the wavelength of the femtosecond ...
