Emulsification of immiscible two-phase fluids, i.e., one condensed phase dispersed homogeneously as tiny droplets in an outer continuous medium, plays a key role in medicine, food, chemical separations, cosmetics, fabrication of micro- and nanoparticles and capsules, and dynamic optics.

The Mn /Mn redox couple with a standard potential of +1.51 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) has attracted interest for the design of V/Mn redox flow batteries (RFBs). However, Mn disproportionation leads to a loss of capacity, an increase in pressure drop, and electrode passivation caused by the formation of MnO particles during battery cycling.

Article Synopsis
  • Metallocenes like decamethylruthenocene can generate hydrogen on their own when exposed to light, without needing an extra sensitizer.
  • The process involves two main steps: first forming a hydride intermediate and then undergoing reductions to release hydrogen.
  • Experimental and computational studies show that the initial step of hydrogen production requires energy input from light, while the transformation between the different forms of the compound happens spontaneously in the presence of protons.
