Design of experiments to investigate multi-additive cellulose nanocrystal films

Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions can self-assemble into chiral nematic films upon the slow evaporation of water. These films are brittle, as indicated by their fracturing instead of plastically deforming once they are fully elastically deformed. Thi ...

Electrospun nanofibers for electrochemical reduction of CO2: A mini review

Andreas Züttel, Wen Luo, Jie Zhang

The electrochemical reduction of CO2 (CO2RR) into valuable products represents a step towards alleviating global warming and the energy crisis. However, the sluggish kinetics of the CO2RR and the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) still limit th ...

Uncovering the Activity of Alkaline Earth Metal Hydrogenation Catalysis Through Molecular Volcano Plots

Shubhajit Das

Recent advances in alkaline earth (Ae) metal hydrogenation catalysis have broadened the spectrum of potential catalysts to include candidates from the main group, providing a sustainable alternative to the commonly used transition metals. Although Ae-amide ...

Work fluctuations in the active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle model

Francesco Cagnetta

We study the large deviations of the power injected by the active force for an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP), free or in a confining potential. For the free-particle case, we compute the rate function analytically in d-dimensions from a saddle- ...

Stable Palladium Oxide Clusters Encapsulated in Silicalite-1 for Complete Methane Oxidation

Davide Ferri, Oliver Kröcher, Teng Li, Olga Safonova

Zeolite-supported metal catalysts are widely employed in a number of chemical processes, and the stability of the catalytically active species is one of the most critical factors determining the reaction performance. A good example is the Pd/zeolite cataly ...

Unified analysis of topological defects in 2D systems of active and passive disks

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Pasquale Digregorio

We provide a comprehensive quantitative analysis of localized and extended topological defects in the steady state of 2D passive and active repulsive Brownian disk systems. We show that, both in and out-of-equilibrium, the passage from the solid to the hex ...

Transport signatures of temperature-induced chemical potential shift and Lifshitz transition in layered type-II Weyl semimetal TaIrTe4

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Meng Yang

Temperature-induced Lifshitz transitions have been identified in several materials. Their chemical potential shows a substantial shift with changing temperature. The common feature of these materials is the coexistence of electron and hole pockets in the v ...

Semi-quantitative Model for Risk Assessment in University Laboratories

Thierry Meyer, Anastasia Jung

University chemical laboratories, contrary to common perception, are dangerous working environments. Unlike industry, where most processes are standardized, in academia, they are modified so frequently that in-depth and detailed risk assessment becomes unf ...

An Investigation into the Intrinsic Peroxidase-Like Activity of Fe-MOFs and Fe-MOFs/Polymer Composites

Wendy Lee Queen, Daniel Teav Sun, Vikram Vinayak Karve

The quest for developing materials that provide a perfect trade-off between factors such as enzyme-like response, stability, and low cost has been a long-standing challenge in the field of biosensing. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their composites ha ...

Parietal Structures of Escherichia coli Can Impact the D-Cateslytin Antibacterial Activity

Georg Fantner, Oliver Peric

Bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics is of major concern. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered excellent alternatives. Among them, D-cateslytin (D-Ctl, derivative of a host defense peptide) has shown high efficiency against a broad spec ...
