DIAvent maxFlow for high-performance batteries
Maximum flow rate, adjustable trigger pressure and autonomous resealing combine in a single degassing valve.
Spider silk-inspired method transforms corn protein into ultra-tough plastic alternative
The scientists turned to a corn protein called zein, which is abundant, renewable and naturally hydrophobic. Because the material is also relatively brittle, the team took inspiration from the way spiders spin their silk to improve the zein’s mechanical strength.
Freshwater mussel protein could inspire stronger medical-grade glues
The protein, called Dbfp7, is derived from the quagga mussel and, despite lacking a specific chemical feature that enables it to stick to surfaces underwater, it still proved capable of this type of adhesion.
