Recently, the magnetoelectronic materials and devices (MEMT) team, led by Prof. Run-Wei Li,has established a series of remarkable progresses in the area of organic/polymeric RRAMs. Prof. Li and his group observed stable resistive switching phenomena in a new polyimide material bearing 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole pendant unities, and identified the electron donor-acceptor (D-A) cha...

In Prof. Juan Du's recent research, when tuning the composition of Ni and Al in Gd55NixAl45-x BMGs by changing Ni/Al ratio, the system behavior changed from ferromagnetic to spin glass. A ferromagnetic SG behavior was observed for glassy ribbons with compositions of x=15, 20, and 25, but it disappeared for that of x=30. Furthermore, the maximum magnetic entropy change (ΔSmM...

Recently, cooperating with Prof. Caro from Leibniz University Hannover, the group led by Dr. Aisheng Huang from NIMTE,CAS, has developed an amazing hydrogen-selective ZIF-90 membrane with high gas separation performance. 

Recently in 2012, the researchers in NIMTE developed a novel route to make PI bead foams using a mixed physical blowing agent. By increasing the gas solubility in PI matrix and improving cell nucleation, they have successfully developed the PI foaming technology. The resultant PI bead foams present high expansion ratio of 50-60 times and well-defined cell morphology.  

At present, composite materials research team of the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology &Engineering, CAS achieves a research progressin the high thermal conductivity of thermoplastic matrix composites. The high thermal conductivity composites of nylon 6 resin matrix were developed by the twin-screw extruder.
