Squid skin inspires next-generation heat regulating blanket
Inspired by the dynamic skin of stealthy sea creatures, researchers have developed a next-generation, adaptive space blanket that gives users the ability to control their temperature. Ultra-lightweight space blankets have been around for decades, but the key drawback is that the material is static, said Alon Gorodetsky, an associate professor at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) in the US. "We have made a version with changeable properties so you can regulate how much heat is trapped or released," Gorodetsky said in a statement. The researchers took design cues from various species of squids, octopuses and cuttlefish that use their adaptive, dynamic skin to thrive in aquatic environments. A cephalopod's unique ability to camouflage itself by rapidly changing colour is due, in part, to skin cells called chromatophores that can instantly change from minute points to flattened disks, according to the research published in the journal Nature Communications. "We use a similar ...

Scientists 3D-print all-liquid 'lab on chip'
Scientists have 3D-printed an all-liquid device that can be repeatedly reconfigured to serve a wide range of applications -- from making battery materials to screening drug candidates. The 3D-printed device can be programmed to carry out multistep, complex chemical reactions on demand, according to researchers from the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). "What's even more amazing is that this versatile platform can be reconfigured to efficiently and precisely combine molecules to form very specific products, such as organic battery materials," said Brett Helms, a staff scientist in Berkeley Lab, who led the study. The findings, published in the journal Nature Communications, is the latest in a series of experiments at Berkeley Lab that fabricate all-liquid materials with a 3D printer. Last year, researchers pioneered a new technique for printing various liquid structures -- from droplets to swirling threads of liquid -- within another ...
