Chapter 146: I'm sorry, tonight's party is canceled

Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory.

Danucci knocked on Jeffrey Grossman's office with excitement on his face: "Professor, it's a success, our research on new materials has been successful!"

"Oh, yes?!Take me around!"

At this moment, hearing this exciting news, Grossman stood up suddenly, if there was champagne here, I am afraid he would not be able to help but open a spray!

hurriedly ran to the laboratory, and even kicked down several stools in the way on the way - the comic book of poetry was ecstatic, probably describing his form at this time.

A year, a full year of immersion, when everyone thought that he was exhausted, he Jeffrey Grossman was about to set sail again and slap these people in the face!

Because, he has finally developed a new material that can be used in seawater desalination reverse osmosis membranes! Even if this material cannot be used in the field of reverse osmosis on a large scale!

But in any case, a new material has its own meaning of existence, and the significance is extremely far-reaching!

Grossman knows that since Liu Feng blocked the road to polyamide composites, many people engaged in this field have switched to other careers: distillation, multi-stage flash evaporation...... In other desalination fields, it seems that the reverse osmosis method has reached a dead end for a while, and there is even a friend Professor Francis who is engaged in the research of polyamide composite materials!

If he hadn't been engaged in the research of new materials for a long time, maybe there would be one of the people who joined him!

In short, there is no doubt that if you want to continue to make breakthroughs in the field of reverse osmosis, researchers can only find another way to develop a new material to replace polyamide, otherwise, the industry will be narrower and narrower, so the importance of new materials is self-evident, it is like a lighthouse on the sea in the dark night, giving people a new direction of research!

"Good, good, the results of the experiment are no problem at all!"

Grossman scrutinized the experimental records of Danucci and the others, and then saw the new material in the glassware, which was only the size of a child's palm, and he clenched his fists hard, announcing a news that made everyone present excited.

"Everyone, the banquet hall next door, the champagne tonight, enough!"

Grossman has always been generous to his heroes, although it is only a preliminary study now, and there are many follow-up verification links, but at least for now, a prom party is absolutely indispensable.

"Hooray!"

In an instant, a cheer suddenly sounded in the laboratory, and the young men under his hands were elated, talking and laughing, and the dull atmosphere was suddenly swept away.

Seeing this, Grossman nodded in satisfaction and returned to his office, where he was already working on his thesis on this new material.

Just as he turned to make himself a cup of coffee, he suddenly received another email from Nature Chemistry in his mailbox.

"Huh, of course, there are new papers over there that I need to review?"

With the glass down, Grossman sat back in his office chair.

As a collaborator and review editor of Nature Chemistry, he has long been accustomed to the 'harassing emails' from time to time.

I open the email proficiently, download the paper from it, and open it.

Grossman, who was originally very relaxed and casual, chuckled fiercely in his heart for a moment, and he was stunned.

Damn, what did he see?!

【Study on the properties of a new type of seawater desalination reverse osmosis membrane material - graphene oxide】

【Study on the properties of graphane, a new type of seawater desalination reverse osmosis membrane material】

[Study on the properties of a new type of seawater desalination reverse osmosis membrane material - carbon nitride microcrystalline graphene]

……

A whole 16 papers are about new materials for seawater desalination sub-permeable membranes......

Looking at the neatly arranged papers on the computer, Professor Grossman, who came back to his senses, suddenly had the feeling that he was a dog today.

God, what are you kidding! Is it April Fool's Day in your heaven?

To be honest, he should not be the only one who has been researching new materials over the years, but before today, he had never heard of anyone making a name for himself, but today, 16 kinds appeared in an instant, oh no, it should be 17 kinds of new materials, is this making fun of him Grossman?

Grossman's joy had already sunk to the bottom, and he opened the paper one after another with a black face, scrutinizing it.

The first one, it seems that there is no problem.

In the second part, there seems to be no problem.

Chapters 3 and 4...... Until chapter 16,

There is no doubt that after a rough reading of all the papers, he found that the results of these papers are very novel, and there are no obvious omissions and errors in the data and tables in them.

And, most importantly, he saw a familiar name on these papers - Liu Feng!

MMP!

It's this guy again!

No, it's this damn guy!

Last time, Grossman could still praise Liu Feng's 8 papers published with the mood of eating melons and watching the play, as well as express Amen and schadenfreude to other peers, but now, feng shui takes turns, and things happen to him, he can no longer praise it, even if this time the papers are twice as large as the last time!

There are 16 new materials, are you an illegitimate child left behind by God?

So lucky!

Or are you just a big research institute that has gathered all the results on your own?

He was already famous all over the world, and he couldn't help but feel jealous of this guy, and even had the urge to throw these papers directly into the recycle bin and give a comment that couldn't be passed.

It's a pity that, in general, in a peer review process like this, he is not the only expert who participates in the review......

With a sneer, Grossman shook his head, remorseful and remorseful for the jealousy he had just had.

No matter how people research these things, whether they are open or focused, it is not a place for him to put his beak, as a respected senior scholar, he should put his beak on whether these things are correct or not, whether they are useful, and not waste time on meaningless jealousy!

It's just that he can't help but imagine in his mind how big an earthquake it will cause to the reverse osmosis field when these papers are released in an instant, and even the 10-magnitude earthquake that Liu Feng's 8 papers last time are incomparable!

Because, Grossman also found that these new materials are not only new graphene-like materials that he thought of, but also carboncellulose-like materials and microcrystalline graphite-like materials......

It has opened up at least three new development routes for the industry, and what is the new material compared to it? Damen is playing with a pen or carving in front of Michelangelo?

It's just that although he is convinced of the correctness of these papers in his heart, he has always been rigorous and cannot confirm the authenticity of the papers just by looking at the data.

So, as usual, Grossman walked to the lab and found his assistant, Danucci, who was still excited.

Looking at the professor with a frustrated expression, Danucci's heart was full of doubts: "Professor, what happened?"

Grossman looked at Danucci, then at the group of young men who were still excited, smashed his mouth, and finally sighed: "Alas, sorry, boys, tonight's party is canceled......"
