Zn-doped titania nanoparticles as building blocks for solid foam filters of water and air via photocatalytic oxidation
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) could provide energy-efficient purification of water and air. Its efficacy is constrained mainly by limited photocatalytic activity and active surface. To address both, solid foams with hierarchic porous structures spanning multiple length-scales, stabilized by photocatalytic Zn-doped titania … Continue reading

Nickel addition to optimize the hydrogen storage performance of lithium intercalated fullerides
The addition of transition metals to alkali intercalated fullerides proved to enhance their already good hydrogen absorption properties. Herein we present a study based on two different synthetic strategies, allowing the addition of nickel as aggregates with different size to … Continue reading

Platinum carbonyl clusters decomposition on defective graphene surface
Having single atoms or small clusters docked onto a single layer graphene represents a charming feature for energy-storage and catalysis. Unfortunately, the large cohesion energy of transition metals often prevents the isolation of nanoscopic clusters, which invariably tend to aggregate. … Continue reading

Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Reactor for Redox Transformation of Mercury Dichloride
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) possessing a confined inner space protected by chemically resistant shells are promising for delivery, storage, and desorption of various compounds, as well as carrying out specific reactions. Here, we show that SWCNTs interact with molten mercury … Continue reading
