Hydrogen Embrittlement (HE)
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), also known as hydrogen-assisted or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC), is a loss in a metal’s ductility caused by absorbed hydrogen. It is a…
Looking for Clues in the Ocean’s History
According to new research, the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (also known as PETM) increased oxygen levels in the tropical subsurface ocean. During this brief period in…
Cycloalkene – in organic chemistry
Cycloalkenes are a type of cycloalkane, which are cyclic hydrocarbons with at least one carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) in their ring structure. The presence of…
Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD)
A Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) is a gas chromatography detector that detects and analyzes various components of a gas sample. It is also known as…
Hydrogen Analyzer

Electrolysis of Water
Water electrolysis is a chemical process that uses electricity to divide water molecules (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gases. Electrolysis is the process…
Dinotoxins – a group of toxins
Dinotoxins are a class of poisons produced by flagellated, aquatic, unicellular protists known as dinoflagellates. Hardy and Wallace created the term “dinoflagellate toxins” in 2012…
Fluorenol – an alcohol derivative of fluorene
Fluorenol, also known as hydrafinil, is an alcohol derivative of fluorene. It is a compound derived from fluorene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. In the most…
Finding a Novel Li Ion Conductor opens up New Possibilities for Environmentally Friendly Batteries
Researchers discovered a solid substance that rapidly conducts lithium ions. The novel material, which is composed of non-toxic earth-abundant elements, has sufficient Li ion conductivity…
Research Boosts the Stability and Efficiency of Perovskite Solar Cells
