Research on permanently porous nanomaterials has gripped the attention of materials chemists for decades. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are two most studied classes in this field. Recently, explorations into embedding MOFs within mesopores MSNs have aimed to create composites that greater than sum their parts. While initial progress been promising, it become clear characterization these MOF@MSN composite represents a significant challenge is often...
Molten salts are an excellent choice for thermal energy storage materials in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants, yet some can cause corrosion of containment alloys that damage plants and increase maintenance costs. Corrosion rates have been characterized many salt/alloy combinations. However, at junctions dissimilar molten relatively poorly characterized. At such junctions, which common CSP it is possible galvanic interactions or other mechanisms could above the industry standard 20...

Ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) scaffolds were covalently modified with primary amine groups by means of oxidation-coupling, yielding C–O–C bonds, or organometallic activation-coupling, C–C bonds. The aminated OMCs stressed immersion in either 1 M hydrochloric acid sodium hydroxide solutions at room temperature for 6 h and characterized nitrogen sorption, electron microscopy, low-angle X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, the 4-nitrobenzaldehyde assay. Results demonstrate that...
Due to exposure risks and health concerns, global limitations on per- polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have become increasingly restrictive. Light-driven technologies can potentially destroy detect PFAS, addressing these limitations.
