Polyethyleneimine-Based Cryogels Enabling the Selective and Reversible Adsorption of Chlorine.

Herein hyperbranched polyethyleneimine (hPEI) cryogels are reported for the selective and reversible adsorption of elemental chlorine. The cryogels are prepared in an aqueous solution by crosslinking with glutaraldehyde at subzero temperatures. The final macroporous composites bearing ammonium chloride groups are obtained after freeze-drying.

Exploring six successful nurse-led transition clinics: Experiences and outcomes.

Background And Purpose: In the Netherlands, the 2022 Quality Standard 'Youth in transition from paediatric to adult care' underscores the importance of structured transitional care for young adults with chronic health conditions. Despite this emphasis, detailed knowledge about transition programs and their successful elements remains sparse. This study aims to bridge this gap by exploring nurse-led transition clinics that had successfully implemented core interventions such as a transition coordinator, warm handover, and individual transition plans.

Work-Function-Dependent Reduction of Transition Metal Nitrides in Hydrogen Environments.

Amidst the growing importance of hydrogen in a sustainable future, it is crucial to develop coatings that can protect hydrogen-sensitive system components in reactive hydrogen environments. However, the prediction of the chemical stability of materials in hydrogen is not fully understood. In this study, we show that the work function is a key parameter determining the reducibility (i.

Chemically Stable Group IV-V Transition Metal Carbide Thin Films in Hydrogen Radical Environments.

Hydrogen is a crucial element in the green energy transition. However, its tendency to react with and diffuse into surrounding materials poses a significant challenge. Therefore, developing coatings to protect system components in hydrogen environments (molecular, radicals (H*), and plasma) is essential.
