Conceptual, self-assembling graphene nanocontainers [PDF]
We show that graphene nano-sheets, when appropriately functionalised, can form self-assembling nanocontainers which may be opened or closed using a chemical trigger such as pH or polarity of solvent.

Liquid metal nanodroplet dynamics inside nanocontainers [PDF]
Here we report direct observations of spatial movements of nanodroplets of Pb metal trapped inside sealed carbon nanocontainers. We find drastic changes in the mobility of the liquid droplets as the particle size increases from a few to a few ten ...

Flower-Like Covalent Organic Frameworks for Superior Corrosion Resistance and Durability in Epoxy Coatings. [PDF]
In this study, an ultra‐stable 3D flower‐like COF (TP‐TA COF), self‐assembled on molybdenum disulfide (MDS‐COF), as a nanocontainer for anti‐corrosion coating applications, is developed. The TP‐TA COF provides a dual‐pore size framework to facilitate Zn2⁺ adsorption/release as a corrosion inhibitor, while its active‐redox C═N and C─N linkages ensure ...
