Key Points Rubbing alcohol is great for cleaning kitchens because it's a solvent and disinfectant.Its degreasing properties ...

Two solvation models are available in NWChem: COSMO and SMD. Since some of the COSMO parameters are used for SMD, we suggest to read the COSMO section before the SMD one. COSMO is the continuum ...

In a remarkable shift from conventional knowledge, a recent study by researchers from the University of Cambridge and the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research reveals groundbreaking insights into ...

Water isn’t just a universal solvent that remains unaffected by its interactions. New publications from North Carolina State University show that water can change its solubility characteristics ...

Water can change its solubility characteristics depending upon what it interacts with. Water isn't just a universal solvent that remains unaffected by its interactions. New publications from North ...

Capturing carbon dioxide is expected to play a key role in the next phase of the energy transition by decarbonizing existing equipment. Hidden in a fold of Norway’s western coast about an hour north ...

Life on early Earth seems to have begun with a paradox: while life needs water as a solvent, the essential chemical backbones of early life-forming molecules fall apart in water. Our universal solvent ...

Scientists can now manufacture a synthetic version of the self-healing sticky substance that mussels use to anchor themselves to rocks in pounding ocean surf and surging tidal basins. A patent is ...
