Highly Reactive Biocidal Energetic Composite
A multifunctional reactive material was developed with biocidal combustion products, which can remain active for an extended period of time.
Environmentally friendly nanogenerators for versatile energy harvesting and self-powered sensors
Recently, Prof. Jianhua Hao’s group from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University introduced a hydrogel-based triboelectric nanogenerator (Hydrogel-TENG).
Synergism of Thin Heterojunctions and Spatially Separated Cocatalysts for Solar Water Splitting
Photochemical water splitting is an elegant way to solve energy and environmental-related issues.
Both: saving fuel and enhancing comfort
In the mobility of the future, the recuperation of energy plays an increasingly important role, including in a car’s suspension. Car builder Audi is working on a prototype called “eROT,” in which electromechanical rotary dampers replace the hydraulic dampers used...
CO2 on the Brain and the Brain on CO2
Opinion: Do you think we have a serious greenhouse gas climate change problem caused by anthropogenic CO2 emissions in our atmosphere, which is threatening the future health and well-being of our civilization?

2016 Chemistry Nobel Prize: How Molecular Machines Benefit Polymer Science (and vice versa)
Modern chemical designers are often inspired by Nature as well as by man-made objects – think of the classical analogy between molecular building blocks and LEGO bricks, the lock and key principle, etc. This year’s chemistry Nobel laureates have certainly been inspired by a bit of both.
Flexible dye-sensitized solar cell photoanodes
Scientists from Singapore and China have developed flexible titanium dioxide photoanodes with a multilayered structure.
