Synergistic Effects of Electricity and Light for Efficient Iron‐Catalyzed Recycling of Polystyrene Waste

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The synergistic interplay of electricity, light and earth‐abundant, nontoxic iron catalysis allowed for the efficient recycling of post‐consumer polymers into value‐added products. This robust depolymerization strategy was viable on multigram‐scale, where the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction presents an attractive opportunity for a green hydrogen ...

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and
