In an initiative that could lead to carbon-free space launches, scientists at the University of California, Riverside, are experimenting with ammonia borane (NH₃BH₃) as a substitute to conventional ...

A newway to produce amine-boranes has been created that promises to be safer and cheaper, and could lead to new uses in medicine, energy storage, rocket propulsion and other technologies.

Borane complexes, characterised by electron‐deficient boron centres, have emerged as pivotal species in modern inorganic and organometallic chemistry. Their propensity to engage in dehydrogenation ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are taking a new approach to "filling up" a fuel cell car with a nanoscale solid, hydrogen storage material.

A chemical used in electric vehicle batteries could also give us carbon-free fuel for space flight, according to new research. A chemical used in electric vehicle batteries could also give us ...

In my case, I happened to be in the right place at the right time, and along with my colleagues, I worked to create the fledgling field of modern boron chemistry. As a result, I managed to make a ...

Le premier laser dans le visible a vu le jour il y a plus de 54 ans. Il s'agissait d'un laser solide émettant dans le rouge. Les chercheurs aimeraient aujourd'hui réaliser des lasers liquides ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — When SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule splashed down off the Florida coast in August following its first crewed mission, the two astronauts inside could not exit the capsule ...

Glen Junor, a graduate student and the University of California, San Diego, made these spindly aminoborane crystals in just six hours. Getting nitrogen to bond with boron can be tough; usually the ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue University researchers have developed a way to produce amine-boranes that promises to be safer and cheaper, and could lead to new uses in medicine, energy storage, rocket ...
