Hollow nanosized needles, or nanostraws, are a promising tool for opening up tiny, temporary holes in cell membranes to deliver molecules or sample a cell’s contents. Nanostraws could also deliver ...

Stainless steel, an iron-carbon alloy containing chromium and other metals, has a wide range of applications, including cookware, building materials, and medical implants. Due to its biocompatibility ...

Surface plating is widely used to repair or salvage critical components in the marine industry. As many components need disassembly, the repair process is typically carried out when the ship is in dry ...

Scientists have combined 3-D-printing with electroplating to easily produce high-quality metal electrodes that can be used as a molecular beam-splitter. Many measurement techniques, such as ...

AT a meeting of the Royal Society of Arts on February 2, a paper by Mr. A. Rosenberg was read upon an improved method of electroplating. Mr. Rosenberg dispenses altogether with the plating bath and ...

Now that his new metal-plating system is all polished up and promises to revolutionize many industrial processes, Physicist Donald M. Mattox of Albuquerque’s Sandia Corp. is faced with a persistent ...
