A new study in Small presents a 3D SiOx-embedded porous carbon nanofiber host that stabilizes lithium-metal batteries by ...

Using a new method, scientists have made a porous graphitic carbon with record-high surface area and triple the electrical conductivity of similar carbon materials (ACS Cent. Sci. 2015 ...

Researchers led by a team at the University of Waterloo have developed a way to create tiny droplets of one liquid inside ...

A recent study reveals that the double-layered porous nanotubes with spatially separated photoredox surfaces were synthesized by self-template strategy and showed enhanced photocatalytic activity ...

The team’s 3D multiscale porous carbon aerogel has a surface area of around 1750 m 2 /g, and tests show that an electrode made from the material has a capacitance of 148.6 F/g when a voltage of 5 mV/s ...

This created porous carbon fibers but with differently sized and spaced pores. Energy storage can be maximized with greater surface area, which occurs with smaller, uniform pores. Liu came up with ...

Unfortunately, since activated carbon is essentially solid, its permeation function is mostly confined to the surface of the substrate, and its filtration function is primarily physical (not chemical) ...

For the second time, Würzburg chemistry professor Frank Würthner has received a prestigious award from the European Research ...

Aluminum surface with nanostructured polymer layer subsequently converted into a slippery liquid-infused porous surface (SLIPS) As well as significantly delaying ice build up, the team says that ...
