An ancient metal used for its microbial properties is the basis for a materials-based solution to disinfection. A team of scientists from Ames National Laboratory, Iowa State University, and University at Buffalo developed an antimicrobial spray that deposits a layer of copper nanowires onto high-touch surfaces in public spaces.
The Newsletter for Ames Laboratory Employees
In 2022, Ames National Laboratory celebrates a milestone – 75 years as a national laboratory dedicated to the pursuit of research in materials science. While the Department of Energy-led research institution’s reputation in this field is widely recognized today, it is less well understood just how revolutionary Ames Lab’s beginnings were.
Scientist I, Division of Critical Materials
Introduce unsaturation into polymer backbones to achieve chemical recycling of polyolefins
The effect of polymer structure on catalytic hydrogenolysis
CMI researchers at Idaho National Laboratory conducted the research for this highlight
Newly discovered magnetic interactions in the Kagome layered topological magnet TbMn6Sn6 could be the key to customizing how electrons flow through these materials. Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames National Laboratory and Oak Ridge National Laboratory conducted an in-depth investigation of TbMn6Sn6 to better understand the material and its magnetic characteristics.
CMI Team member Idaho National Laboratory won three R&D 100 Awards in 2022, including one for EC-Leach, which was developed by CMI researchers at INL.
