Book Review of Turning Points in Solid-State, Materials and Surface Science: A Book in Celebration of the Life and Work of Sir John Meurig Thomas

This book was created to provide “a state-of-the-art survey of some of the most important recent developments across the solid-state, materials and surface sciences�, to quote from the Preface, and to pay tribute to the life and work of Sir John Meurig Thomas. The chapters are organized under four main sections: (A) Inorganic Solid State Chemistry (Nanoporous Solids, Complex Oxides, Zeolites, Minerals, Non-Stoichiometry, Computation and Modeling; (B) Organic Solid State Chemistry; (C) Solid Catalysts, Surface and Materials Science; and (D) Electron Microscopy and its Contribution to Chemistry and Materials Science. These sections also represent the major areas in which Thomas established his reputation. Sir Thomas himself has contributed the final chapter to this volume “Design and Chance in my Scientific Research,� and there are

Nano-materials Could Protect Spacecraft and Satellites From Debris

Space junk in Earth orbit is becoming a big problem (here's an previous UT article that illustrates the problem.) If the International Space Station or an operating communications or science satellite were struck by debris such as an old satellite, launch vehicle parts, or even something as small as a paint chip, it could mean disaster. Space debris also threatens the lives of astronauts and the launch of new satellites today, says Dr. Noam Eliaz, Head of the Biomaterials and Corrosion Laboratory at the School of Mechanical Engineering at Tel Aviv University. An expert in materials science and engineering, Dr. Eliaz is working to create and test new nano-materials and polymers to protect satellites and astronauts alike.

iPhone 3G dissection shows total cost of materials to be $174.33

"The total cost of materials used inside the latest iPhone [8GB] is $174.33, a dollar and change higher than the preliminary estimate iSuppli made in June, about two weeks before the phone was actually released. If the analysis is correct, Apple is spending about $53 less on materials than it did with the first iPhone, which iSuppli says costs $227 to make," Arik Hesseldahl reports for BusinessWeek. "After accounting for a subsidy from AT&T, iSuppli reckons Apple makes a per-unit gross profit of 55%."

Using Nanotechnology to Create High-performance Materials

The project is being coordinated from Geesthacht by the director of the Institute of Polymer Research, Prof. Volker Abetz. “One of the aims of our first meeting will be to discuss the current state of materials development and the steps that need to be taken, especially with regard to the materials’ subsequent applications,� says Abetz.

Using nanotechnology to create high-performance materials

(Nanowerk News) The polymer researchers at the GKSS Research Centre in Geesthacht (Germany) expected about 30 scientists to attend the kick-off meeting of the new EU project HARCANA (High Aspect Ratio for Carbon-based Nanocomposites). New kinds of plastic-based nanocomposites could be used to develop lightweight materials that would increase the mechanical stability of materials and add electrical or magnetic properties, for example.

Book Review of Bio-inorganic Hybrid Nanomaterials: Strategies, Synthesis, Characterization and Applications

The synthesis of complex hierarchical inorganic materials in a process called biomineralization is very common in Nature. Biomineralization typically involves self-assembly of inorganic precursors with biomolecules and/or biomolecule-initiated nucleation and growth processes. This results in various biomaterials having complex structures, shapes, hybrid organic−inorganic or hybrid biomolecule−inorganic compositions, and, most of all, properties such as increased strength and hardness that are beneficial for the living organism. Examples of these include our own bones and teeth, the seashells of many sea organisms, and the colorful opals in butterfly wings. By mimicking these natural biomineralization processes, materials scientists, chemists, and biomedical engineers alike have synthesized complex synthetic hierarchical materials for
