Unravelling nanoconfined films of ionic liquids [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2014
The confinement of an ionic liquid between charged solid surfaces is treated using an exactly solvable 1D Coulomb gas model. The theory highlights the importance of two dimensionless parameters: the fugacity of the ionic liquid, and the electrostatic interaction energy of ions at closest approach, in determining how the disjoining pressure exerted on ...

Confinement of LiAlH4 in a Mesoporous Carbon Black for Improved Near-Ambient Release of H2

open access: yesReactions, 2023
LiAlH4 is a potential solid-state H2 storage material, where safe and efficient H2 storage is of critical importance for the transition towards a sustainable emission-free economy.

Highly stretchable polymer semiconductor films through the nanoconfinement effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Soft and conformable wearable electronics require stretchable semiconductors, but existing ones typically sacrifice charge transport mobility to achieve stretchability.

Size–Pore-Dependent Methanol Sequestration from Water–Methanol Mixtures by an Embedded Graphene Slit

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
The separation of liquid mixture components is relevant to many applications—ranging from water purification to biofuel production—and is a growing concern related to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as “Clean water and Sanitation” and ...

Why are Fluid Densities So Low in Carbon Nanotubes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The equilibrium density of fluids under nanoconfinement can differ substantially from their bulk density. Using a mean-field approach to describe the energetic landscape near the carbon nanotube (CNT) wall, we obtain analytical results describing the ...

Chemistry in nanochannel confinement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This review addresses the questions of whether it makes sense to use lithographically defined nanochannels for chemistry in liquids, and what it is possible to learn from experiments on that topic.

Release of Hydrogen from Nanoconfined Hydrides by Application of Microwaves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The release of hydrogen from solid hydrides by thermolysis can be improved by nanoconfinement of the hydride in a suitable micro/mesoporous support, but the slow heat transfer by conduction through the support can be a limitation.

A Review of the MSCA ITN ECOSTORE—Novel Complex Metal Hydrides for Efficient and Compact Storage of Renewable Energy as Hydrogen and Electricity

open access: yesInorganics, 2020
Hydrogen as an energy carrier is very versatile in energy storage applications. Developments in novel, sustainable technologies towards a CO2-free society are needed and the exploration of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) as well as solid-state hydrogen

Synthesis of semicrystalline nanocapsular structures obtained by Thermally Induced Phase Separation in nanoconfinement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Phase separation of a polymer solution exhibits a peculiar behavior when induced in a nanoconfinement. The energetic constraints introduce additional interactions between the polymer segments that reduce the number of available configurations.
