The year 2023 marks the mid-point of the 15-year period envisaged to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, targets for global development adopted in September 2015 by all United Nations Member States. To help track where we are on this journey, and to amplify success stories, in this ...
Electrocatalytic technologies play a vital role in the advancement of hydrogen energy and other renewable green energy sources, with nanocatalysts
Ion association was found to significantly affect the dissociation constant of the ammonium ion in solutions containing sulfate, chloride and carbonate anions; thus, influencing the free ammonia concentration in solution. Increasing temperature from 25 to 35 °C was found to decrease the dissociation co...
Furthermore, the coincident evolution of carbon dioxide with ammonia evolution from the SNCR ash suggested an association between unburned carbon and ammonia; this association was not observed for the SCR ash. Importantly, an accurate depiction of the chemistry of ammonia on combustion ashes has to...
Smilowitz, in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, 2022 3.2.3 Dark zone burning mechanism The complex reaction of CH2O with NO2 provides a source of exothermicity that is relatively low compared to subsequent reactions but important to the overall decomposition of both HMX and PETN [32]. We...
MXene, a new member of 2D material, unites the eminence of hydrophilicity, large surface groups, superb flexibility and excellent conductivity. Because of its prodigious characteristics, MXene has gained much approbation among researchers worldwide. MXene’s noteworthy features, such as its electrical...
Glycation is a non-enzymatic post-translational modification (PTM) that is correlated with many diseases, including diabetes, cancer and age-related disorders. Although recent work points to the importance of glycation as a functional PTM, it remains an
Reaction of phenylacetaldehyde, hydratropaldehyde, and diphenylacetaldehyde with ammonia in methanol or ether at -15° leads to 2,4,6-tribenzyl-1,3,5-hexahydrotriazines 2a-c. Two of these products had been described by others as hydratropaldimine and diphenylacetaldimine. The platinum-catalyzed...
Computational mechanistic study of the unimolecular dissociation of ethyl hydroperoxide and its bimolecular reactions with atmospheric species ArticleOpen access14 September 2020 Introduction The atmospheric chemistry of alcohols is a significant global subject in the context of urban and regional air quality ...
Subglacial Lake Whillans lies below around 800 m of Antarctic ice and is isolated from fresh sources of photosynthetic organic matter to sustain life. The diverse microbial ecosystems within the lake and underlying sediments are therefore dependent on
