A cation exchange resin (CER) bead-based microscale electrolytic suppressor for capillary ion chromatography (CIC) has been fabricated and evaluated. Relative to common ion exchange membrane, the use of CER beads presents a simple way to fabricate a microscale suppressor due to its small surface area and spherical shape. The internal volume of the device is ∼600 nL, which matches the requirements by CIC. Continuous online regeneration is readily achieved using pure water or diluted sulfuric acid as the regenerant. The use of a cation exchange functionalized monolithic segment inserted between two CER beads greatly reduces the electrical resistance and improves the suppression efficiency. The device works well only in the electrolytic mode, chemical regeneration alone is ineffective. The suppressed background is ∼3 μS/cm for 10mM KOH eluent generated online by a microscale KOH electrolytic generator operated at the flow rate of 3 μL/min. The preliminary application for capillary ion chromatography has been demonstrated.

Ternary InGaP quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as promising materials for efficient blue emission, owing to their tunable bandgap, high stability, and superior optoelectronic properties. However, most reported methods for Ga incorporation into the InP structure have predominantly relied on cation exchange in pre-grown InP QDs at elevated temperatures above 280 °C. This is largely due to the fact that, when heating In and P precursors in the presence of Ga, an InP/GaP core-shell structure readily forms.

This study investigated the distribution of salinity and sodicity in the irrigated areas of Abaya Chamo. Representative water and soil samples were collected from different soil depths (0-30 cm and 30-60 cm). Sodium absorption ratio (SAR), electrical conductivity (Ec), pH, exchange sodium, magnesium, calcium, and potassium cations, and exchange sodium percentage (ESP) of the sampled sites were analyzed for soil salinity classification and severity analysis.

One method of achieving spatially specific, multi-component nanoheterostructures is to combine multiple forms of post-synthetic modification. Applying cation or anion exchange to CuS nanorods creates complex nanoheterostructures. Combining such anion and cation exchanges generates a system which uncovers the interplay between these two processes and understands the cooperativity between postsynthetic modifications more broadly.
