In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes. Thus, mechanochemistry is environmentally friendly and enables us to perform organic synthesis using reactants that poorly dissolve into common solvents. In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes. Thus, mechanochemistry is environmentally…

Building on their work on the first-ever supranano magnesium alloy, a research team led by City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) has demonstrated how supranano engineering can lead to higher strength and higher ductility in bulk structural materials. Building on their work on the first-ever supranano magnesium alloy, a research team led by City University of…

As climate change leads to more frequent and intense extreme precipitation events, accurately predicting rainfall during the flood season has become increasingly critical. As climate change leads to more frequent and intense extreme precipitation events, accurately predicting rainfall during the flood season has become increasingly critical. Environment Phys.org – latest science and technology news stories

Tornadoes remain one of the most destructive natural hazards. Accurately recording tornado occurrences has been challenging, especially in areas where confirming their occurrence is challenging due to sparse populations or dense forests. A recent news and views article, led by researchers from the China Meteorological Administration Tornado Key Laboratory, Peking University, and the Foshan Tornado…
