Chemistry World November 13, 2014 Andy Extance	Good vibrations brighten superconductor outlook New observations from researchers in the US and Canada of how electron movement in superconductors can be boosted could be set to accelerate their development.
Chemistry World November 5, 2014 Elisabeth Bowley	Energy positive treatment for fracking water Researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder have developed a technique that can simultaneously remove organic pollutants and salinity from contaminated water while producing energy.
Chemistry World November 4, 2014 Emma Stoye	Pressure-sensitive coating makes swallowed batteries safer Scientists have developed a protective coating for button cell batteries that stops curious children that swallow them from being injured.
Chemistry World November 1, 2014	An interdisciplinary celebration Rather than some biologists being woken up by a call from Stockholm to discover they are chemists, as the old joke goes, this year it was two physicists and a physical chemist.
Chemistry World October 30, 2014 Andrea Sella	Daniell's cell John Daniell (1790 -- 1845) was a British meteorologist who verified Faraday's theory of the equivalence of chemistry and electricity.
Chemistry World October 30, 2014 Simon Hadlington	A new way to convert light to electricity By shining light onto metallic nanoparticles, researchers in the US and the Netherlands have demonstrated an entirely new way to generate electrical energy
