A new study reports a highly effective and sustainable material for capturing rare earth elements from water, offering a ...

In this interview, Andrew D’Amico, a Senior Research Engineer at Micromeritics, talks to AZoM about the importance of chemical adsorption measurements and his recent research in the field of ...

Accumulation on surfaces is a big problem for protein drug makers. Such interactions impact drug efficacy and stability and can result in the formation of aggregates that provoke dangerous allergic ...

Applications of adsorption of small drug particles at the surface of large excipients were introduced, and different factors affecting adsorption process were discussed and summarized. Several ...

Antibiotic pollution in water is an escalating global concern, driven largely by agricultural use. Now, researchers have ...

Like someone who finally sits after a long, tiring day of standing, gas-phase molecules breathe a sigh of relief, so to speak, as they “take a seat” (adsorb) on solid surfaces. The sigh comes in the ...

Adsorption is a phenomenon in which molecules or ions from a fluid phase (gas or liquid) are attracted and retained on the surface of a solid phase (adsorbent). Adsorption is different from absorption ...

Mesoporous silica thin films have important applications in many fields, including sensors and low-k dielectrics. Lowering the bulk dielectric constant can occur by introducing pores into the material ...

A research team has made a breakthrough in surface science by introducing a new active mechanism of adsorption. Such adsorption-based phenomena, in which molecules are attracted onto a solid surface, ...
