Propylene oxide (PO) is a very important industrial chemical, which is mainly used in the production of polyurethane plastics. Current production methods are expensive since hydrogen peroxide acts as the oxidant.…
The recycling of polymer waste is important to reduce the environmental footprint of these materials and the use of non-renewable resources. Mechanical recycling, i.e. melting down plastic waste and reusing it for new…
Relaxor ferroelectric perovskites possess a number of fundamentally interesting structural features as well as large and widely useful properties usable in various sensors and actuators.
High capacity and abundance and with that connected low price of the aluminium metal makes it an ideal anode material for the next generation of batteries. Aluminium based batteries are ideal for the stationary…
Adipic acid is one of the most important dicarboxylic acids in the polymer industry, which is unfortunately still produced in a highly exothermic oxidation process with NOx as a by-product. In the past, many studies have…
Sterile inflammation is a physiological condition, which develops in the absence of a microbial infection as a result of tissue damage, but also underlies the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases. Sterile inflammation…
The contribution of ribosome heterogeneity and ribosome-associated proteins to the molecular control of proteomes in health and disease remains enigmatic. Researchers from the Department of molecular biology and…
Oxygen vacancies are known to play a crucial role in tuning the physical properties and technological applications of titanium dioxide TiO2. Over the last decades, defects in substoichiometric TiO2 have been commonly…
Platinum group metals (PGM) free catalysts have high initial activity for O2 reduction reaction, but they suffer from low stability in an acid medium in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) and direct methanol…
Members of the section D13 Ješić et al. published a review article entitled "Engineering Photocatalytic and Photoelectrocatalytic CO2 Reduction Reactions: Mechanisms, Intrinsic Kinetics, Mass Transfer Resistances,…
