A Nafion (NF) ionomer was used as a potential new template or scaffold for mesoporous metal composites because intrinsic meso-structures have been found in NF. A facile EC catalytic process, involving a Cu+-mediated Pt reduction (CMPR), was successfully used as a major source of Pt nanoparticles (nPts). We found that…

The over capacity of lithium ion batteries with metal-oxides anode materials is usually regarded as originating from the low-voltage decomposition of the electrolyte and subsequent formation of a gel-like polymer layer deposited on the metal-oxides surfaces. In this work, we report a high over capacity value of 1800 m…

While it is well-known that oligoethylene glycol (OEG) terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) can be deteriorated by UV irradiation in air, we now report that the analogous modification can also be performed in water, opening the opportunity for in situ tuning of biorepulsive properties. Surprisingly, this deteri…

Water leakage detection is important for a proper management of water distribution systems (WDS). This paper proposes the application of the leak detection approach based on a new Bayesian calibration methodology. The methodology uses a new developed index μ, which takes into account the difference in roughness values…

Thermal stability is one of the main concerns for the synthesis of hollow nanoparticles. In this work, molecular dynamics simulation gave an insight into the atomic reconstruction and energy evolution during the collapse of hollow gold nanoballs, based on which a mechanism was proposed. The stability was found to depe…

Agricultural pesticide contamination results from the use and or misuse of agricultural pesticides. It proved that pesticides adversely affect the human health and the environment. These pesticides tend to bind tightly to the soil, most often in the surface layer and are persistent in the environment and thus may be p…
