Enhancing Mechanical Deformability of Rigid Conjugated Polymers through Functional Additive‐Induced Persistence Length Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a molecular strategy to enhance the stretchability of conjugated polymers by incorporating plasticizing molecular additives (PMAs). PMAs reduce the persistence length and promote chain entanglement, enabling deformable thin films with preserved electrical performance. A systematic analysis combining rheology, neutron scattering,

Cenosphere-Based 177Lu-Aluminosilicate Microspheres as a Theranostic β-Emitter for Selective Internal Radiation Therapy of Hepatic Tumors

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations
The narrow fraction of the cenospheres of coal fly ash (30−50 μm; glass phase ∼ 90 wt. %) was used for the preparation of β-emitting 177Lu-bearing aluminosilicate microspheres. Two methods of chemical modification to encapsulate 177Lu3+ in the cenosphere’

Cross-disciplinary Reactor-to-Repository Framework for Evaluating Spent Nuclear Fuel from Advanced Reactors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
This study presents a cross-disciplinary reactor-to-repository framework to compare different advanced reactors with respect to their spent nuclear fuel (SNF). The framework consists of (1) OpenMC for simulating neutronics, fuel depletion, and radioactive decays; (2) NWPY for computing the repository footprint for SNF disposal given the thermal ...

Assessing the viability of non-light water reactor concepts for electricity and heat generation in decarbonized energy systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Recent pledges to triple global nuclear capacity by 2050 suggest a "nuclear renaissance," bolstered by reactor concepts such as sodium-cooled fast reactors, high-temperature reactors, and molten salt reactors. These technologies claim to address the challenges of today's high-capacity light-water reactors, i.e., cost overruns, delays, and social ...

Synthetic Aspects and Characterization Needs in MOF Chemistry – from Discovery to Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Overcoming the challenges of phase discovery, synthesis optimization and scale‐up, characterization, and computational studies is essential to accelerate the large‐scale application of MOFs. Life‐cycle analyses and techno‐economic analyses need to be performed to realistically assess their potential for industrial relevance.
