From batch rejection to real-time control

Process Analytical Technology (PAT), including NIR and Raman spectroscopy, is becoming essential in pharmaceuticals for real-time quality control. Instead of relying on offline samples whose analysis is often unrepresentative because they were taken too early, measurements can now be performed online and processes adjusted immediately.

Watching Solid-State Sodium Batteries Fail – In Real Time

Why do some of the most promising next-generation batteries fail—and how can we stop it? A new peer-reviewed study led by Imperial College London answers that by watching the failure process unfold as the battery operates. Using simultaneous dual-polarity secondary-ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) alongside controlled electrochemical cycling, the team directly observed where, when, and why degradation…
