Solubility functions by a group of rules that determine how dissolvable a substance (solute) is in solvent and depends entirely on the physical and chemical properties of the solute and solvent. That ...

Even the best products won’t meet expectations if they are packed poorly — packaging matters. The same goes for drug delivery. Osaka Metropolitan University researchers have uncovered the critical ...

Solvent polarity controls drug-loading capacity of metal-organic framework carriers. (Nanowerk News) Even the best products won’t meet expectations if they are packed poorly — packaging matters. The ...

Researchers have developed a sensor based on porous crystalline fibers of a fluorescent dendrimer. The high porosity of the fibers increased their adsorption capacity, making their emission behavior ...

Most of us know the basics of how concentrates are made: Cannabis is soaked in a solvent, which dissolves the cannabinoids and terpenes; the solvent is then evaporated, and what’s left behind is a ...

Vapour degreasing solvents are typically chosen for their excellent solvency properties. They have the ability to dissolve and disperse a wide range of contaminants, including dirt, oil, grease, wax, ...

A research team led by Prof. Ge Ziyi from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. Qu Bo from Peking ...
