First, a block of material whose chemistry can be altered by light is made.

By bombarding the fossils with an infrared synchrotron beam a noninvasive way of analyzing a material's internal chemistry the scientists said they detected molecular traces of an organic protein inside the mineralized bones.

When they finally ran out, they started creating new material together, and the chemistry proved potent.

It turns out the filters put on vehicle exhausts to remove fine particulate material have also unbalanced the chemistry behind ozone formation.

First, "Benign by Design" is a call to the producer to use green chemistry to change the material to be inert in the environment.

The result, they claim in a paper that will appear this month in the Journal of Physical Chemistry, is a nanofibre material with an extremely high ratio of surface-area to volume.

ECONOMIST: Space-age soot

Doping (adding the element niobium to the chemistry), as well as reducing the size of the material to nanoscale, makes it more conductive.
