Chemistry World August 3, 2015 Ida Emilie Steinmark	First isolation of stable solid-state bismuth radical For the first time, researchers have managed to isolate a monomeric bismuth radical that is stable in the solid state.
Chemistry World August 3, 2015 Ida Emilie Steinmark	Phosphorescent 'butterfly' molecules' glow tuned Molecular 'butterflies' that flutter their wings under light can be tuned to glow red or blue, or both.
Chemistry World July 31, 2015 Rebecca Trager	Stone 'blueprinting' to tackle heritage thefts A combined laser and chemical 'blueprinting' technique could help crackdown on the growing problem of stone theft from heritage sites.
Chemistry World July 30, 2015 Andy Extance	Philae poses comet chemistry conundrum As the Philae lander bounced across comet 67P/Churyumov -- Gerasimenko's surface in November last year, two chemical instruments were able to take tentative -- but intriguingly contradictory -- sniffs of its environment.
Chemistry World July 30, 2015 Ida Emilie Steinmark	Kirigami graphene makes microscale devices Graphene can be used to create kirigami springs that maintain their conductivity when stretched.
Chemistry World July 30, 2015 Derek Lowe	A precision instrument? How much do medicinal chemists and their biology colleagues really trust each other's data? In the end, they have to, because drug discovery is a team sport.
Chemistry World July 29, 2015 Thadchajini Retneswaran	Antifreeze polymer protects cells as they thaw Researchers have synthesized a polymer that limits ice crystal growth in frozen red blood cells as they thaw.
Chemistry World July 28, 2015 James Urquhart	Zeolite packaging to fight durian fruit stench Stinking foods including the world's smelliest fruit -- the durian -- could soon have their undesirable odors eliminated during storage and transport thanks to cheap packaging made from composite films of zeolite and nanocellulose.
Chemistry World July 28, 2015 Laura Fisher	Battery buffer takes the strain Researchers in China and the US have developed a layered oxide that shrinks when ions are intercalated into it, with the hope of buffering the volume expansion seen in common electrode materials.
Chemistry World July 27, 2015 Matthew Gunther	Single polymer pill could deliver entire drug course in one go The prospect of taking an intensive course of drugs can be hard to swallow, but scientists in the US have designed a single pill made from a polymer gel that could potentially deliver an entire treatment in a single dose.
