Eco-friendly plastic developed in Japan dissolves in seawater within hours, leaving no trace, non-toxic, and non-flammable.

While an incredibly useful resource for humans, plastic has become a blight on our ecosystems and planet. Due to its ...

Though a Northwestern-developed quarter-size dissolvable pacemaker worked well in pre-clinical animal studies, cardiac surgeons asked if it was possible to make the device smaller. To reduce the size ...

In a groundbreaking advancement, researchers have developed a dissolvable pacemaker that eliminates the need for invasive surgical procedures typically associated with temporary pacemakers.

To improve sustainability in 3D printing, Rivera and his team propose using dissolvable interfaces between parts during assembly to simplify their separation for recycling at end-of-life. These ...

Since launching in late 2023, the NRF has backed companies, including $32 million for Harrison.ai, $ 13 million for Quantum Brilliance, and $25 million for Myriota. Despite that, the PolyActiva deal ...

Recent work from Northwestern Engineering’s Guillermo Ameer could allow the re-stenting of an artery to restore blood flow with a dissolvable product, a process that currently is not possible. Using a ...

Dissolvable stitches do not require removal but disappear over time. They are made of materials that the body gradually breaks down. People may also call them absorbable stitches. Dissolvable ...
