    Why FCAD Invested in Ionic Liquids?

    Low Melting Point Ever tried melting table salt? You can’t melt it in a kitchen because they have a melting point of 801○C! Table salt can easily be dissolved in water, but cannot be melted. This is due to the presence of cations and anions in salt. They pack well to each other, lose their

    What are Silver Nanowires?

    Brief Introduction of Nanowires Nanowires have a number of exciting properties which are not exhibited by 3-D or bulk materials. This is due to the fact that electrons within the nanowires are quantum confined and have energy levels that differ from that of the bulk materials. Nanowires are nanostructures with a diameter  in the order of

    Watson’s Leadership in Unnatural Amino Acid Synthesis: Elevating Pharmaceutical Standards

    In the realm of synthetic biology and pharmaceuticals, the precision and purity of chemical components are paramount. Unnatural amino acids, particularly those protected by Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) and Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl), play a pivotal role in this sector, serving as building blocks for peptides, proteins, and a myriad of other bioactive molecules. Within this highly specialized field,
