NASA’s Curiosity rover accidentally split open a rock on Mars on May 30, 2024, exposing bright yellow crystals that turned out to be pure elemental sulfur, a material never before identified on the ...

A team of chemists has demonstrated a way to form sulfur-sulfur bonds at room temperature without any external catalyst, ...

Sulfur molecules come in many forms called allotropes, from S2 up to S8. The subscript indicates the number of S atoms in the allotrope. We are proposing here a new pathway to S2 formation. With S2 ...

Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that directly convert chemical energy from a fuel into electrical energy. Unlike batteries, which only store electricity, fuel cells can continuously generate ...

Sunlight can be used to convert polystyrene waste and excess sulfur into valuable organic products. The team that created the new process hopes that it could be a way to tackle the millions of tonnes ...

High in the atmosphere of Venus, a swirl of sulfur-containing clouds blankets the planet. Dark spots in these clouds correspond with areas of high ultraviolet light absorption, but researchers have ...
