NIST's 'Nano-Raspberries' Could Bear Fruit in Fuel Cells

Fri, 06/26/2015 - 2:23am
... National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and ... catalysts. Even better news for industrial chemists: the researchers figured out when and why the berry clusters clump into larger bunches of "nano-grapes." The research could help make fuel cells more practical. ...
