Patchy particles are formed from the clusters using a two-stage swelling process followed by polymerization 31. First, a low-molecular-mass, water-insoluble organic compound (1-chlorodecane) is ...

Researchers analyzed the effects of solvation and ion valency on metallopolymers, with implications for critical materials recovery and recycling, and environmental remediation. In a new paper ...

Recently, the researchers from Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, by using valence engineering, developed three ...

“Neutron” the cat is spying on his monovalent perrhenate mice which are stuck behind the positively charged couch. Through neutron reflectometry and ab initio molecular dynamics, insights are provided ...
