Computer Simulation Discloses New Effect of Cavitation
Use for Reducing Wear in Pumps and Plain Bearings
30-Mar-2016
Researchers have discovered a so far unknown formation mechanism of cavitation bubbles by means of a model calculation. In the Science Advances journal, they describe how oil-repellent and oil-attracting surfaces influence a passing oil flow. Depending on the viscosity of the oil, a steam bubble ...
Smallest lattice structure worldwide
04-Feb-2016
KIT scientists now present the smallest lattice structure made by man. Its struts and braces are made of glassy carbon and are less than 1 µm long and 200 nm in diameter. They are smaller than comparable metamaterials by a factor of 5. The small dimension results in so far unreached ratios of ...
First Solar Cell Made of Highly Ordered Molecular Frameworks
New Material Based on Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs) Is Suited for Photovoltaics
22-Jun-2015
Researchers at KIT have developed a material suited for photo-voltaics. For the first time, a functioning organic solar cell con-sisting of a single component has been produced on the basis of metal-organic framework compounds (MOFs). The material is highly elastic and might also be used for the ...
Free Pores for Molecule Transport
Researchers Identify Cause of Surface Barriers of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs)
05-Aug-2014
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can take up gases similar to a sponge that soaks up liquids. Hence, these highly porous materials are suited for storing hydrogen or greenhouse gases. However, loading of many MOFs is inhibited by barriers. Scien-tists of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) now ...
q&more – the networking platform for quality excellence in lab and process
The q&more concept is to increase the visibility of recent research and innovative solutions, and support the exchange of knowledge.
