Mechanoluminescence (ML), also called triboluminescence (TL), refers to the phenomenon/process that materials could emit light under mechanical stimuli, e.g., friction, stretch, compression, impact, etc. The ML materials could utilize the ubiquitous mechanical energy in daily life to generate light emissions, avoiding the requirement of an artif...
Dr. Li Fuwei’s research group of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been working on the catalytic conversion of levulinic acid and furfural in recent years. They have developed a series of non-noble metal based catalysts and turned the two chemicals into high value-added chemicals and fuels.
The Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has made continuous progress in improving friction property of ceramic coating. They have in-situ synthesized lamellar-like MoS2 in the pores and micro-cracks of ZrO2 ceramic coatings using hydrothermal method coupled with vacuum impregnation, which perfect...
The Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has achieved a new breakthrough in the development of high performance 3D printing material. The solvent-free and photocurable polyimide inks for SLA and DLP 3D printing developed by LICP work wonders in producing spare parts and components with extremely complex...
