A new material called CC3 effectively traps xenon, krypton, and radon. These gases are used in industries such as lighting or medicine and, in the case of radon, one that can be hazardous when it ...
With a squeeze, an organic molecule can snatch rare gases from the air. The compound contains cavities that are just the right size to nab atoms of xenon, krypton and radon. These noble gases range ...
Richland, Wash. -- When nuclear fuel gets recycled, the process releases radioactive krypton and xenon gases. Naturally occurring uranium in rock contaminates basements with the related gas radon. A ...
LONDON: In what could solve the commercial problems associated with clean-up of nuclear waste, researchers have successfully tested a material that can extract atoms of rare or dangerous elements such ...
What are they: Noble gases like helium, neon, and argon are inert, colorless, and non-flammable, making them safe and stable ...
