The atomic structure and composition of a catalyst's surface have a major influence on its performance regarding activity and selectivity. In this respect, intermetallic compounds are promising future catalyst materials, as their surfaces exhibit small and ...
In this study we report the first organic hydrophilic dye employed for 100% water-based electrolyte DSSCs. We show that the replacement of alkyl by glycolic chains in the dye structure is able to provide excellent wettability, resulting in an efficient sys ...
Two ruthenium sensitizers TT-230 and TT-232 based on cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b']dithiophene (CDT) were tested in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) using,a tri-iodide/iodide redox couple, and their performances compared to the benchmark Z907. Both dyes of gen ...
The mechanism of CO2 adsorption in the amine-functionalized metal-organic framework mmen-Mg2(dobpdc) (dobpdc4- = 4,4′-dioxidobiphenyl-3,3′-dicarboxylate; mmen = N,N′- dimethylethylenediamine) was characterized by quantum-chemical calculations. The material ...
High atm. CO2 levels, resulting largely from combustion of fossil fuels, and its undesirable impact on global climate has sparked considerable interest in cleaner energy sources. While energy transitions are historically slow, technol. solns. for mitigatio ...
Six metal-org. frameworks of the M2(dobdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn; dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) structure type bind carbon monoxide reversibly and at high capacity. IR spectra indicate that, upon coordination of CO to the divalent m ...
In this paper we report the detection of explosive compounds using a miniaturized gas preconcentrator (μGP) made of porous silicon (PS) filled in with Carbopack B as an adsorbent material. The μGP includes also a platinum heater patterned at the backside a ...
Methane can be an alternative fuel for vehicular usage provided that new porous materials are developed for its efficient adsorption-based storage. Herein, we search for materials for this application within the family of diamond analogues. We used density ...
The design of adsorption-based separation processes using novel adsorbents requires reliable data for the adsorption of fluid mixtures on candidate adsorbents. Due to the difficulty of generating sufficient data across possible operating conditions, proces ...
Owing to their high surface areas, tunable pore dimensions, and adjustable surface functionality, metal-org. frameworks (MOFs) can offer advantages for a variety of gas storage and gas sepn. applications. In an effort to reduce the major energy requirement ...
