Perceived importance and didactic difficulty of chemistry education: Insights from Czech teachers
Abstract This empirical study examines how chemistry teachers in lower and upper secondary schools in the Czech Republic evaluate the content of the chemistry curriculum, focussing on its perceived importance and didactic difficulty. Based on a quantitative survey (N = 146), the study provides insight into the pedagogical content knowledge of ...

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Unveiling Bubble Dynamics of Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis at Elevated Temperatures
This work directly visualizes bubble dynamics in a proton‐exchange membrane water electrolyzer operated at temperatures up to 120°C and pressures up to 100 bar. Elevated‐temperature operation beyond the atmospheric boiling point markedly reduces bubble coverage, leading to lower bubble‐related voltage losses and enhancing cell performance.

Anatomy of a SPAN Particle: A Four‐Level Structural Framework for Lithium–Sulfur Batteries
Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) is a key cathode material for batteries. Borrowing the four‐level classification of protein structure, this perspective demonstrates SPAN's structural complexity into well‐defined levels, giving researchers clear research boundaries and targets at each level for improving battery performance.

Sr‐LMO microspheres were synthesized by one‐pot spray pyrolysis, forming multi‐phase lithium manganese oxide with Sr‐doped LiMn2O4, Sr2Mn2O5, and Li2MnO3‐like domains. This structure refines particles, suppresses Jahn–Teller distortion, and adds Li+ pathways, delivering superior cycling stability and rate performance over undoped and commercial LMO ...
