Discovery of an Optimal Porous Crystalline Material for the Capture of Chemical Warfare Agents
Chemistry of Materials, 2018 Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are regarded as a critical challenge in our society. Here, we use a high-throughput computational screening strategy backed up by experimental validation to identify and synthesize a promising porous material for CWA ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT E‐waste pickers play a valuable role in the circular economy and divert waste from landfills. Despite their contributions to the economy, informal e‐waste pickers work in very adverse conditions. With a view to improving their livelihoods and working conditions and possibly increasing their integration, Korten's four generations framework is ...

How Useful Are Common Simulants of Chemical Warfare Agents at Predicting Adsorption Behavior?
Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2018 Nanoporous materials such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attractive properties for selective capture of chemical warfare agents (CWAs). For obvious reasons, most research on adsorption of CWAs is performed with simulant molecules rather than ...

Importance of Fluorine in High Voltage Electrolytes for LNMO||SiGr Cell Chemistry
Small, EarlyView.A non‐flammable fluorinated electrolyte is developed for a high voltage LNMO||SiGr (20 wt.% Si) cell chemistry to improve the cycle life until 80% SOH by 56% compared to the reference cell chemistry. This electrolyte prevents the roll‐over effect and suppresses side reactions, resulting in an effective solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and cathode ...

Methods used to destroy chemical warfare agents [PDF]
In 1986, Congress passed PL 99-145 (50 USC 1521) that mandated destruction of the stockpile of lethal chemical warfare agents in the United States. These include nerve agents and blister agents (vesicants). Most stockpiles of U.S. chemical warfare agents

Small Methods, EarlyView.This review summarizes recent progress in the design and nanoarchitectural control of bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and their applications in quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors for the detection of various gases. It also discusses the underlying sensing mechanisms of bimetallic MOFs and concludes with challenges and future ...
