129Xe Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of Metal–Organic Frameworks

Analysis &Sensing, Volume 6, Issue 4, July 2026.
129Xe NMR spectroscopy is a powerful technique to study porous materials. Properties such as pore sizes, pore connectivity, and dynamic switching processes associated with adsorption can be investigated. With its inertness and highly polarizable electron cloud, Xe allows for sensitive monitoring of small changes in the surface chemistry of materials ...

Moisture sorption isotherms and isosteric heat sorption of habanero pepper (Capsicum chínense) dehydrated powder

Proceedings of 21th International Drying Symposium, 2018
Moisture sorption isotherms of the habanero pepper powder were determined using the Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) method at 20, 25, 35, 45 and 55 °C in a range of water activity from 0.10 to 0.90 at which the processes of drying, packing and storage of habanero pepper are developed.

A general and green approach of pH‐sensitive ZIF‐67 for encapsulating active substances

Smart Molecules, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Zeolitic imidazolate framework‐67 (ZIF‐67) was successfully synthesized in deionized water for 2 h in this work; meanwhile, various active substances could be encapsulated in one‐pot with the same process, resulting in high loading rates. The study delved into the growth mechanism, morphological difference and loading capacity.
