Chemical bonding enables scientists to take the 100-plus elements of the periodic table and combine them in myriad ways to form chemical compounds and materials. The success rate is pretty good ...

Through a novel electrospinning technique, researchers have effectively achieved a “bridge” between carbon fiber and its ...

Now a study has revealed a strange variety of bond that acts like a hybrid of the two. Its properties raise questions about how chemical bonds are defined, chemists report in the Jan. 8 Science.

Here’s how it works. Scientists have recently discovered a totally new type of chemical bond — and it's way stronger than it has any right to be. The new type of bond shows that the divide ...

Chemical bonding refers to the attraction between atoms and can come in several different types with varying strength. It allows the formation of substances with more than one atomic component and ...

The atom that gains an electron becomes a negative ion. A positive and negative ion attract each other and form an ionic bond. Students will look at animations and make drawings of the ionic bonding ...

However, those same chemical bonds have made it difficult to break down without incurring a high energy cost. [Related: Will we ever be able to recycle all our plastic?] To destroy the carbon ...

A group of scientists from Durham University and University of York have twisted molecules to their breaking point in order to challenge the understanding of chemical bonds. The researchers ...

We’re a team of researchers who developed a chemical system that uses light to break down bonds between carbon and fluorine atoms. These strong chemical bonds help PFAS resist degradation. We ...
