The forest byproduct lignin can play a key role in new sustainable materials
Lignin, a by-product of the forest industry, can be used to produce sustainable materials that can replace traditional plastics. This has been revealed in a research project at the University of Borås in Sweden. Matilda Johansson, holder of a Ph.D. in Polymer Technology, has investigated how lignin can be chemically modified and used in fiber-reinforced biocomposites. The goal was to create materials that can not only replace oil-based products, but also reduce the weight of structures without compromising mechanical properties.

A smarter way to make sulfones: Using molecular oxygen and a functional catalyst
Sulfones, a class of sulfur-containing compounds, are chemically derived from the selective oxidation of sulfides. While these compounds form the core of the pharmaceuticals, solvents and polymer industries, their chemical synthesis is often hindered by high reaction temperatures and extreme reaction conditions. Additionally, these also require costly additives and harsh solvents for production.

How the word 'incel' got away from us
Imagine a young man whose voice has been worn down by years of feeling invisible. Plain, numb and bitter, the "incel" tries to explain the kind of hopelessness most of us would rather not confront: "I believed I was unlovable, so who the hell is gonna love me? I won't get a good job, and if I don't get a good job, I won't be able to live the kind of life I want. I'll be lonely and depressed, and what's the point of living? You start seeing life not as something to look forward to, but as something you just have to survive."

Even as emissions level off, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is growing faster than ever. Here's why
Over the last decade, humanity's emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) have stabilized after a period of huge growth. Average growth is now down to just 0.6% per year, compared to 2% per year in the previous decade. But leveling off isn't the same as declining—and we've leveled off at a very high rate of emissions. The Global Carbon Project estimates human activities released a record high of 10.2 gigatons of carbon (GtC) in 2024.
