Research in the field of nanoparticles has yielded a number of novel solutions in ceramics, cosmetics, biomedicine and electronics. Nanoparticles exhibit unexpected behavior when the atomic and ...

Scientists know iron oxide minerals store large amounts of carbon in soils, but lack a detailed, quantitative understanding of the specific chemical mechanisms that allow them to bind such a wide ...

Northwestern University researchers are actively overturning the conventional view of iron oxides as mere phosphorus “sinks.” A critical nutrient for life, most phosphorus in the soil is organic — ...
