A researcher group led by Prof. YANG Minghui at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), discovered that zirconium nitride (ZrN) catalysts could be a superior alternative to expensive platinum (Pt) catalysts for oxygen reduction. The study was published in Nature Materials.

The Biomedical Polymers Research Group at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), fabricated white-light-emitting alginate/polyacrylamide (PAAm) double network composite hydrogels, with vinyl-modified Ce-doped yttrium aluminum garnet phosphors (YAG:Ce–VTES) as crosslinkers. The obtained hydrogels showed ...

A research group led by Prof. GE Ziyi at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has made great progress in organic solar cells (OSCs). 

The year 2019 marks the 70th founding anniversary of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). American Chemical Society (ACS) Publications has celebrated its 70th anniversary by highlighting 70 articles contributed by CAS researchers. Two articles conducted by the researchers at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE), Chinese Academy of Sciences (...

Functional Carbon Materials Research Group at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has developed a graphene thermal interface material (TIM) composed of mainly vertically aligned graphene. Thanks to the ultra-high through-plane thermal conductivity and low compressive modulus, the resultant graphene TIM may ...
