Catalytically Enhanced Near Room‐Temperature Hydrogen Sensing Using Pd‐ZnO Colloidal Crystals

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Pd‐decorated ZnO colloidal crystal monolayers demonstrate excellent performance across a wide hydrogen concentration range at 33°C, with high selectivity and reproducible device fabrication. The sensors show strong responses even at low‐ppm H2 concentrations and an ultra‐low detection limit of 82 ppb, indicating their suitability for diverse hydrogen ...

Acid Site Design for Low Hydration Proton Exchange Membranes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
α‐CF2 substitution adjacent to sulfonic acid increases acid strength and enables efficient proton transport under low hydration conditions. This molecular design reduces the dependence of hydrocarbon proton exchange membranes on excessive water uptake, addressing a key limitation of conventional hydrocarbon PEMs while maintaining favorable conductivity

Enzyme‐Loaded Fe3+‐Modified Polydopamine Microparticles: Bioreactor Systems for Operating Biocatalytic Cascades, Enantioselective Transformations and Sensor Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Enzyme‐loaded Fe3+‐modified polydopamine microparticles (Fe3+‐PD) act as hybrid biocatalytic frameworks demonstrating NADH peroxidase‐mimic catalytic activities, operation of biocatalytic cascades in confined media, and enantioselective oxidation of D/L‐DOPA. ABSTRACT We report on the synthesis of Fe3+‐modified porous polydopamine microparticles acting

Numerical Investigation on the Flow Characteristics in a 17 × 17 Full-Scale Fuel Assembly

Energies, 2020
In a previous study, several computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of fuel assembly thermal-hydraulic problems were presented that contained fewer fuel rods, such as 3 × 3 and 5 × 5, due to limited computer capacity. However, a typical
