Influence of Poly(Diketopyrrolopyrrole) Chain Length and Chemical Structure on Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution in Composites With TiO2

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Two different poly(diketopyrrolopyrroles) are synthesized via the Suzuki–Miyaura copolymerisation and characterized thoroughly. Composite materials with anatase TiO2 are formed with different polymer‐TiO2 ratios. The composite materials are tested in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, in which an eight‐time increase of the hydrogen evolution is ...

Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.
