Multimodal photo, thermal and electrochemical approaches toward CO release from the amino carbene complex [(CO)5CrC(NC4H8)CH3] is reported. Picosecond time resolved infrared spectroscopy was used to probe the photo-induced early state dynamics leading to CO release, and DFT calculations confirmed that CO release occurs from a singlet excited state.

Chlorinated polymers have made enormous contributions to materials science and are commercially produced on a large scale. These chlorinated polymers could be recycled as chlorine sources to efficiently produce valuable chlorinated compounds owing to their facile release of HCl. Although the thermal stability of PVDC is low compared to PVC, this can be advantageous in terms of easy and fast dehydrochlorination.

A polyvinylidene carbonate:BN layer was constructed between LiAlTi(PO) (LATP) and the lithium (Li) electrode, improving interfacial compatibility and thermal stability. The LiN-rich solid electrolyte interphase regulates Li deposition behaviors. The solid-state Li metal batteries (SSLMBs) show remarkable electrochemical performance, exhibiting endurance for 800 hours of cycling at 0.

Self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules can take place in extremely concentrated salt solutions, such as inorganic molten salt hydrates or hydrous melts. The intermolecular interactions governing the organization of amphiphilic molecules under such extreme conditions are not yet fully understood. In this study, we investigated the specific effects of ions on the self-assembly of the non-ionic surfactant CH(OCHCH)OH (CE) under extreme salt concentrations, using calcium nitrate tetrahydrate as a reference.

Hydrogen production from biomass pyrolysis is attractive since it allows for green hydrogen production through feedstock and thermal conversion. However, the key limiting factors for hydrogen production are the high oxygen content, uneven heating of biomass pellets during the slow heating process, and insufficient depolymerization due to low reaction temperatures (low gas yields and low hydrogen content). To address these challenges, fast pyrolysis of super Arundo in NaOH-NaCO molten salt was carried out in this paper at 450 °C, 550 °C and 650 °C.

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) nano-coatings on titanium alloys (for example, Ti6Al4V) have been used for prosthetic orthopedic implants in recent decades due to their osseointegration, bioactivity, and biocompatibility. HAP is brittle with low mechanical strength and poor adhesion on metallic surfaces, which limits its durability and bioactivity. Surface modification techniques have alleviated the imperfection of biomaterials by coating the substrate.
