Abstract Non‐centrosymmetric metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently emerged as a promising class of coordination polymers for nonlinear optics and light conversion. Nevertheless, achieving high endurance efficiency the conversion within whole visible range by single crystal MOF remains challenge. This article reports on design two non‐centrosymmetric MOFs based 1,3,5‐benzenetricarboxylic acid ligand Er/Co ions, providing an efficient simultaneous multiple second third optical harmonic...
The behavior of supported alloyed and de-alloyed platinum-copper catalysts, which contained 14-27% wt. Pt, was studied in the reactions methanol electrooxidation (MOR) oxygen electroreduction (ORR) 0.1 M HClO4 solutions. Alloyed PtCux/C catalysts were prepared by a multistage sequential deposition copper platinum onto Vulcan XC72 dispersed carbon support. De-alloyed PtCux-y/C materials pretreatment acid effects initial composition treatment condition on their composition, structure,...

The stability of Nafion-carbon composites is important for the efficient functioning fuel cells. thermal decomposition Nafion, nanostructured carbon materials, such as multi-walled nanotubes, graphene-like and their composites, have been studied using constant heating rate thermogravimetry in air. Materials were characterized by quantitative qualitative analysis methods, thermogravimetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning, transmission electron microscopy with field emission. In an...
Compositional proton-conducting membranes based on perfluorinated Aquivion®-type copolymers modified by detonation nanodiamonds (DND) with positively charged surfaces were prepared to improve the performance of hydrogen fuel cells. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments demonstrated fine structure in such filled DND (0-5 wt.%), where conducting channels typical for Aquivion® are mostly preserved while particles (4-5 nm size) decorated polymer domains a submicron scale, according...
