A team of researchers from France’s CNRS (National Centre for Scientific Research) has developed a groundbreaking method for recycling silicone waste—offering a new way to reduce environmental damage ...

SiTime’s MEMS timing technology is built on silicon, offering several advantages over quartz. “Silicon is batch-processed, ...

A study conducted by CNRS researchers describes a new method of recycling silicone waste (caulk, sealants, gels, adhesives, ...

Beijing's new find may seem like just sand, but it’s poised to shake up global technology supply chains and unsettle ...

Silica is naturally occurring in stones such as granite, porcelain and marble at between 5 and 40 per cent. However, in ...

It has the potential to significantly reduce the sector's environmental impacts. This is the first universal recycling process that brings any type of used silicone material back to an earlier state ...

Now, a team of researchers at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) have devised a strategy to turn ...

Chemically, quartz is nearly pure silicon dioxide (SiO 2). When there are no impurities, pure quartz is water-clear and often referred to as “rock crystal”. Impurities can give transparent ...

Scientists in the US built the first silicon transistor in 1947. Before that, the mechanics of computing had been performed by vacuum tubes, which were slow and bulky. Silicon changed everything.

A study conducted by CNRS1 researchers describes a new method of recycling silicone waste (caulk, sealants, gels, adhesives, cosmetics, etc.). It has ...

The global silicon metal market size was $6.3 billion in 2019, and is projected to reach $8.9 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2020 to 2027. Silicon metal is an industrial additive ...
