Featured paper <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/pre>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

In an article published in Nanoscale, a group of Brazilian scientists and a researcher from Germany reported a “green” method for synthesizing nanoparticles made of a palladium and copper alloy. The authors also reported that the composition of the nanoalloy affects its ability to oxidize and reduce. The results can be used for more efficient nanomaterials design for various applications. See our story about the study.<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Our interviewee in this issue is Professor Roberto Mendon\u00e7a Faria (IFSC-USP). Passionate about unraveling mysteries of materials through scientific research, Faria made significant contributions to the study of ferroelectric polymers, electronic polymers and organic solar cells. Besides, Faria was SBPMat president, IFSC – USP director, and coordinator of two Brazilian national research institutes. In the interview, he told us about his scientific career, his achievements as president of SBPMat and his plans for the immediate future within our society and in the international IUMRS, where he is the second vice president. In a message to young people, Professor Faria stressed the importance of “manufacturing knowledge”. See our interview.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Special: Brazilian Multipurpose Reactor (RMB) <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/pre>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
 <\/p>\n

Several characterization instruments receiving neutron beams to interact with matter will comprise the Brazilian National Laboratory of Neutrons, which, after its inauguration, estimated for 2022, will be open to the scientific community day and night, 80% of the year. The neutrons beams will come from RMB, a research nuclear reactor of 30 MW, currently under development. The laboratory will be in Iper\u00f3 (S\u00e3o Paulo State). See our report, with an interview with the coordinator of the project, Jos\u00e9 Augusto Perrotta.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n
