Silica supplements may improve skin texture by enhancing collagen production and maintaining effective hydration levels.

You can safely eat foods with silicon dioxide, which is used to improve the texture and quality of some processed foods. Make informed decisions about food or supplements with additives by checking ...

Imagine a clock that doesn’t have electricity, but its hands and gears spin on their own for all eternity. In a new study, physicists at CU Boulder have used liquid crystals, the same materials that ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OKI (TOKYO: 6703) has successfully developed Tiling crystal film bonding (CFB; Note 1) technology using its proprietary CFB technology. This technology makes possible the ...

A tiny new crystal-based transistor could be the key to faster, more reliable AI chips—leaving traditional silicon designs in the dust. Credit: Shutterstock In a potential turning point for ...

Scientists have developed a material with photosynthetic bacteria that convert carbon dioxide into a mineral skeleton. The material hardens over time, so it could be used for buildings, they say. When ...

On compression of alpha-cristobalite SiO2 to pressures above approximately 12 GPa, a new polymorph known as cristobalite X-I forms. The existence of cristobalite X-I has been known for several decades ...
