Although TiO2 is one of the most efficient photocatalysts, with the highest stability and the lowest cost, there are drawbacks that hinder its practical applications like its wide band gap and high recombination rate of the charge carriers. Consequently, many efforts were directed toward enhancing the photocatalytic a…
The unique properties of transition metal complexes, such as environment-responsive ligand exchange kinetics, diverse photochemical and photophysical properties, and the ability to form specific interactions with biomolecules, make them interesting platforms for selective drug delivery. This minireview will focus on r…
Current developments in the field of thermotropic chiral-nematic liquid crystals as sensors are discussed.
This paper describes an investigation of the promotional effect of Cu on the catalytic performance of Pt/Al2O3 catalysts for propane dehydrogenation. We have shown that Pt/Al2O3 catalysts possess higher propylene selectivity and lower deactivation rate as well as enhanced anti-coking ability upon Cu addition. The opti…
Operation and exploitation of present and future Tokamak reactors require advanced scenario modeling in order to optimize engineering parameters in the design phase as well as physics performance during the exploitation phase. The simulation of Tokamak scenarios involves simultaneous modeling of different regions of t…
Palladium precursors were encapsulated through ligand design prior to the MOF assembly, achieving uniformly distributed Pd NPs inside the cavities of MOFs. The embedded Pd NPs exhibited significantly improved catalytic efficiencies as compared to those synthesized by traditional impregnation method, due to the nano-co…
Loosely packed MoS2 nanosheets with thin carbon coating were synthesized via a facile, one-pot hydrothermal growth method. In the resulting optimally-designed nanoarchitecture, the ultrathin nanosheets, with a wall-thickness of approximately 5–10 nm, provide a large electrode–electrolyte interface so as to facilitate…
In the past few decades, the development of chemosensors for neurotransmitters has emerged as a research area of significant importance, which attracted a tremendous amount of attention due to its high sensitivity and rapid response. This current review focuses on various neurotransmitter detection based on fluorescen…
Corn protein-derived nitrogen-doped carbon nanomaterial was fabricated, and has abundant oxygen active sites and nitrogen defects for vanadium redox reactions.
Solid electrode processes fall in the central focus of electrochemistry due to their broad-based applications in electrochemical energy storage/conversion devices, sensors and electrochemical preparation. The electrolytic production of metals, alloys, semiconductors and oxides via the electrochemical reduction of soli…
A sensing platform based on the fluorescence quenching ability of polydopamine nanospheres was developed for the assay of biomolecules.
Copper sulphides, as a novel kind of photothermal agent for photothermal therapy (PTT) of cancer cells, have attracted increasing attention in recent years due to good photostability, synthetic simplicity, low toxicity and low cost. However, the unsatisfactory photothermal conversion efficiency of copper sulphides lim…
In situ generated Cu nanoparticles catalyze the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol in the presence of NaBH4 very efficiently at room temperature with good recyclability up to four cycles. The precursor compound, formed by hydrothermal treatment of copper chloride with urea at 120 °C for 6 h, produces Cu nanop…
Research on mechanically interlocked molecules has advanced substantially over the last five decades. A large proportion of the published work focusses on the synthesis of these challenging targets, and the subsequent control of the relative position of the covalent sub-components, to generate novel molecular devices…
A sulfur composite cathode material based on 3D N-doped graphene has a high sulfur content of 87.6 wt% and shows an excellent rate capability and cyclability.
Solvent-assisted ligand incorporation (SALI) was utilized to efficiently insert various carboxylate-derived functionalities into the Zr-based metal-organic framework NU-1000 as charge compensating moieties strongly bound to the Zr6 nodes. SALI-derived functionalities are accessible for further chemical reactions such…
Cationic triangulenes and helicenes are highly stable carbocations with planar and helical conformations respectively. These moieties are effective dyes with original absorption and emission properties. Over the last decade, they have received greater attention and are considered as valuable tools for the development…
Covalently cross-linked gelatin hydrogels have received considerable attention in biomedical fields due to the inherent bioactivity of gelatin and the stability of covalent bonds linking the gelatin chains. Derivatives of gelatin, such as gelatin-methacrylamide (GelMA), can be cross-linked into covalent hydrogels thro…
