A research group led by Prof. LIU Fu at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), developed anticoagulant dialyzers via a hydrogel skin implantation strategy, which has achieved heparin free hemodialysis for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) . The study was published in Journal of Membrane Science.

A research group of Key Laboratory of Bio-Based Polymeric Materials Technology and Application of Zhejiang Province at the Ningbo Institute of Material and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) developed a new type of reprocessed thermosets based on acetal exchange chemistry, which possess excellent creep resistance at high temperature (up to 100 oC). ...

A research group led by Prof. HUANG Qing at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have developed a general Lewis acidic etching route for preparing MXenes with enhanced electrochemical performance in non-aqueous electrolyte, in cooperation with Université de Toulouse, Sichuan University and LiU. The stu...

Prof. JIANG Jun’s team at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) reported excellent thermoelectric performance along the out-of-plane direction of n-type tin selenide (SnSe) single crystals by alloying with PbBr2. The study revealed that the thermoelectric performance of n-type SnSe along the out-of-plane di...

A research group led by Prof. LIU Zhaoping at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), revealed that the metastable state of cycled lithium-rich (Li-rich) layered cathode oxides, which stems from structural defects, accounts for the voltage decay of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), in cooperation...
