An ACS Earth and Space Chemistry study revealed that sulfur existed in the early atmospheres in multiple oxidation states.
Alex Zhukhovitskiy, William R. Kenan Jr. Fellow and an assistant professor of chemistry, has been awarded a 2025 Sloan Research Fellowship, among the most prestigious awards given to early-career scientists.
A study explored how the diffusion of star-like and chain-like polymers depends on the pH and salt concentration of the solution.
Researchers shed light on how Pseudomonas syringae, a common bacterial pathogen responsible for diseases in crops across the globe, uses a chemical signal to bolster its virulence and survival.
At the heart of the research lies the phase state of organic aerosols, which can range from liquid to semisolid to glassy. This state determines their viscosity, a property that directly impacts their ability to nucleate ice.
UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry major Tarynn Neal designed her own research experience — and discovered an energy-efficient solution to an industrial-scale problem.
A study challenges long-standing assumptions in this field and opens new doors for designing more efficient electrocatalysts.
A team of researchers led by Dr. Mark Schoenfisch, Peter A. Ornstein Distinguished Professor at UNC-Chapel Hill, explores the potential of nitric oxide as a topical treatment for melanoma.
In the quest to make organic electronics more environmentally friendly, researchers have developed a promising strategy for recycling organic semiconductors.
The study introduces a new, simpler way to modify carboxylic acids—a common feature in many bioactive compounds and drugs.
A research team has tackled a long-standing challenge in hydrogel technology: creating materials that hold large amounts of water without losing strength.
Using proteomic and lipidomic analyses, the researchers identified biomarkers that could change the diagnosis and treatment of domoic acid toxicosis.
