Atmospheric aerosol particles often have compositions and shapes that cannot be described as a single material phase within a simplified geometric form such as
We use autonomous experimentation to elucidate the role of composition, processing, and microstructure on the aqueous corrosion of complex metal alloys. To do
NMR spectroscopy is routinely used to analyze chemical mixtures in the liquid phase. It is far less common for these techniques to be applied to vapor-phase
There is always a degree of uncertainty surrounding measurements of polymeric materials, especially complex mixtures with varying distributions in chemistry
This project develops and applies metrologies and standards for characterizing microstructure and dynamics in advanced functional materials of technological
Overview Capture of carbon dioxide from the air (direct air capture; DAC) combined with energy efficiency and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS)
NIST is charged by the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) with facilitation of interoperability standards to enable successful implementation of
Our team is focusing on developing reliable methods to characterize DAC materials for longevity and stability. We are currently focusing on aminosilane-silica
Develop critical thermal and electrical transport measurement methods, instrumentation, and reference materials needed to support the development, performance
NIST’s Material Measurement Laboratory and Physical Measurement Laboratory are developing a first-of-kind X-ray testbed for operando monitoring of catalytic
