Chemistry World August 31, 2012 Simon Hadlington	'Ocean methane paradox' solved? Numerical simulation of methane production by methanogenic microorganisms suggests that up to 400 billion tonnes of methane could be sitting under the ice. If the ice sheet collapses due to a warming climate, this could release the gas, which in turn would increase warming, the researchers say.
Chemistry World August 30, 2012 Simon Hadlington	Record proton conductivity claim withdrawn US chemists have withdrawn a claim that they created a crystalline nanowire that can conduct protons at world record speeds after other researchers, and subsequently they themselves, failed to reproduce the results.
Chemistry World August 30, 2012 Helen Gray	Graphene printer helps fight Parkinson's disease Scientists in China have developed a method to produce large-scale, high quality, graphene composite films easily and cheaply. The process could be invaluable in commercializing the material for electrochemical biosensor applications.
Chemistry World August 30, 2012 Emily Smith	XPS analysis X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy: an introduction to the principles and practices, by Paul van der Heide contains everything that a researcher wanting to perform x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis will need to know about the science, without the padding.
Chemistry World August 29, 2012 James Urquhart	Graphene--boron nitride stitching to sew up electronics The race to create ultrathin, transparent and flexible electronic devices using graphene -- the most conductive material known to exist -- has a promising new contender.
Chemistry World August 29, 2012 Phillip Broadwith	Beating the heat with camouflage makeup Chemists in the US are developing a camouflage makeup that can protect military personnel from the heat of a bomb blast.
Chemistry World August 29, 2012 Paul Docherty	Amphidinolide F We're plunging into the marine depths to find natural products with prodigious biological activity. The amphidinolide family comprises over 30 members, varying in architecture but (almost) all featuring a complex and highly decorated macrolactone ring at the core.
Chemistry World August 28, 2012 James Mitchell Crow	MOF smashes gas storage ceiling Highly porous materials being developed as future fuel tanks for hydrogen- or methane-powered vehicles could hold much more gas than previously thought.
Chemistry World August 28, 2012 Jennifer Newton	Skeleton and skin strategy improves supercapacitor The ultrathin supercapacitor could have potential uses in lightweight and flexible storage devices for portable electronic devices.
Chemistry World August 28, 2012 Jessica Gwynne	Bridging the gap Orbital Approach to the Electronic Structure of Solids builds on a book originally published by two of the authors in French in 1997.
