A new theory 'demystifies' the crystallization process and shows that the material that crystallizes is the dominant component within a solution -- which is the solvent, not the solute. The theory ...

Microgravity experiments on the International Space Station helped Merck develop a faster subcutaneous version of Keytruda (pembrolizumab). This new injection cuts treatment time to minutes, improving ...

Download the experiment instructions HERE! Crystals form through a process called crystallization which is when a liquid solidifies into a highly structured solid. While crystals can form when liquid ...

Crystals might look simple, but their growth tells a far more complex and fascinating story. From grains of salt to diamonds, crystals form when particles lock into repeating patterns. For many years, ...

What is the National Crystallization Center? The National Crystallization Center at the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute in Buffalo, New York, is a facility that is used to identify ...

Molten carbon can form into either diamond or graphite. A new study shows how graphite can sometimes form even under conditions that should lead to diamond. (Getty Images) The graphite found in your ...

For the first time, scientists have watched metal crystals take shape inside a pool of molten metal, capturing a process that usually unfolds out of sight in the heart of furnaces and casting lines.
