Accelerated discovery of new catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction by Mahmoud G. Ahmed

“…This research demonstrates how the inactive cations affect the OER performance. Although the Co and Mn can occupy both tetrahedral and octahedral sites interchangeably, the highest catalytic performance as a result of combining the two cations is unraveled for the first time by high-throughput methods. …”

Sorption of copper by dye-treated oil-palm fibres by Low, K.S., Lee, C.K., Lee, K.P.

“…Both dye-treated and natural oil-palm fibres from a palm-oil mill were used to remove copper and related heavy metal cations from solutions. The sorption of copper for both types of fibres was studied under various conditions, the parameters being effect of pH, initial concentrations, presence of other metal cations and chelators. …”

Smart nanomicelles with bacterial infection-responsive disassembly for selective antimicrobial applications by Pranantyo, Dicky, Kang, En-Tang, Chan-Park, Mary B.

“…At this low pH, the β-carboxylic amide bond of the anionic polypeptide gradually hydrolyzed to expose the initial cationic amine moieties, causing the NMs to ‘decompose’ into individual CS-PLL and ‘spill’ the cationic molecules which then disrupted and killed the bacteria. …”

Point-Defect Segregation and Space-Charge Potentials at the Σ5(310)[001] Grain Boundary in Ceria by Usler, Adrian L., Heelweg, Henrik J., De Souza, Roger A., Genreith-Schriever, Annalena R.

“…Segregation energies were calculated for oxygen vacancies, electron polarons, gadolinium and scandium acceptor cations, and tantalum donor cations. These energies deviate strongly from their bulk values over the same length scale, thus indicating a structural grain-boundary width of approximately 1.5 nm. …”
