Materials science is constantly evolving research area as researchers strive to discover and synthesize novel functional materials with desirable properties suited to a variety of applications. One ...

Woven fabrics are inherently flexible. Liu et al. created a molecular fabric analog using metal-organic frameworks (see the Perspective by Gutierrez-Puebla). Phenanthroline ligands on a copper metal ...

A covalent bond is a shared pair of electrons between two non-metal atoms, for example carbon dioxide. Figure caption, Two atoms sharing a pair of electrons. A covalent bond happens when the positive ...

Covalent drugs block protein function by forming a specific bond between the ligand and target protein. A covalent mechanism of action can provide many pharmacological advantages over a reversible ...
