Now, though, a novel type of steel has been developed that resists fractures at much lower temperatures, while retaining its strength and toughness — without the need for expensive additives.
These additives are released from water by daily actions like water running out of faucets, spraying from garden hoses, or splashing in dishwashers and washing machines.
Through our research, we managed to identify electrochemical reaction mixtures with the right additives and voltages to be able to transform raw materials into nylon precursors very selectively.
The use of seaweed additives in cattle reduces methane emissions from this food product by about 90% and that's an incredible effect because methane is one of the main gases causing climate change.
So the curious history of spice is of something that was an expensive addition to food for pharaohs, an exotic luxury of kings, of parts of a plant worth so much that countries literally went to war over them.
