Dr Mike McDonagh explains the chemical and physical processes involved in forming lead dioxide and pure lead in lead-acid battery plates.

The Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) is a method for increasing the plasma temperature and driving currents in magnetically-confined fusion plasmas by injecting neutral hydrogen/deuterium beams. As the ...

Chlorine is a fundamental input to modern industry, yet most of today's supply still relies on energy-intensive electrolysis. In order to reduce ...

A cubic arrangement of larger gray spheres interspersed with smaller green spheres. Hydrogen ions (small green spheres) chemically bond to magnesium (large gray spheres) in magnesium hydride, which is ...

The new material, a lanthanum hydride compound modified with strontium and oxygen, allows high-rate conduction of hydride ions at room temperature. This development overcomes previous limitations ...
