New technique could enable design of hybrid glasses and revolutionize gas storage

Friday, August 28, 2015 - 04:30 in Physics & Chemistry

A new method of manufacturing glass could lead to the production of 'designer glasses' with applications in advanced photonics, whilst also facilitating industrial scale carbon capture and storage. An international team of researchers, writing today in the journal Nature Communications, report how they have managed to use a relatively new family of sponge-like porous materials to develop new hybrid glasses.
