In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) single-crystalline metal nanosheets have emerged as a promising next-generation ...

However, their potential for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs)—a promising energy-harvesting technology—remains largely untapped, mainly due to their low current output and limited durability. In ...

Porous metal has been widely used in advanced technology applications, and has a number of uses in the design and manufacture of medical devices. Porous metal is ideal for providing highly dependable ...

Most porous-metal bearings consist of either bronze or iron which has interconnecting pores. These voids take up to 10 to 35% of the total volume. In operation, lubricating oil is stored in these ...

Researchers have used computational design methods to develop non-metal organic porous framework materials, with potential applications in areas such as catalysis, water capture or hydrogen storage.

Because metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) — highly porous metal complexes — are so structurally and chemically diverse, they could be used for many applications, such as drug delivery and environmental ...
