ORNL has pioneered molten salt research since the 1960s, when its Molten Salt Reactor Experiment showed that molten salt ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory developed a method to convert a commonly discarded ...

The 19th-century science fiction novel Frankenstein explores the idea of combining artificial materials with human body ...

The technique pioneered at Oak Ridge National Laboratory produces high-value-added chemicals from plastic waste without ...

In a recent webinar organized by the National Academy of Engineering in connection with its forthcoming Fall ...

Researchers at Purdue University have grown conductive polymers inside the brains of living animals using the animals’ own blood as a chemical trigger, then used near-infrared light to switch neural ...

The words on this page mean something because they are assembled in a particular order and follow the complex rules of grammar and syntax. Creating new chemical polymers follows a similar kind of ...

Most glues don’t work at super low temperatures, since they become rigid and brittle when frozen. So these chemists made a polymer that stays flexible, even in liquid nitrogen, allowing it to bond to ...

The Polymer Science doctoral program is designed to provide students with a background in advanced course work and laboratory techniques that will prepare them to carry out an original investigation ...

In your undergraduate program, you’ll master the foundations of polymers through 90 credit hours and specialize in one of two tracks: traditional polymer engineering or biomaterials. You’ll then build ...
