Invisible Pollution. Emerging marine pollutants

, 2021
Since the start of the Anthropocene, the planet has been threatened by a number of risks associated with human activity. Among them, chemical pollution is posing conceptual and technical challenges that are particularly difficult to characterise on a global scale. We must ask ourselves, what is a pollutant?

Defect‐Driven Charge Separation in Ba‐Doped SrTiO3: Correlating Photoelectrochemical Performance With Dye‐Selective Photocatalysis

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Ba‐doped SrTiO3 perovskites establish a direct correlation between photoelectrochemical activity and photocatalytic performance. Optimized Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 exhibits enhanced charge separation, photocurrent generation, and visible‐light‐driven dye degradation through defect‐induced oxygen vacancies and lattice distortion.

Probing the Architecture of Organic Heterojunctions Based on Zn(Salen)‐Type/Lu(Bis‐phthalocyanine) Complexes and Their Potential Application as Gas Sensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Planar bilayer heterojunctions are fabricated from two molecular materials and compared to solution‐processed bulk heterojunctions. Raman spectroscopy and conductive AFM studies reveal the formation of conductive pillar‐like structures within a poorly conductive matrix.

Adsorbent Materials for Hydrocarbons Removal by Geopolymerization of Halloysite Clay Nanotubes Filled Within Chitosan Matrix

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Alkaline activation of halloysite clay nanotubes embedded in a chitosan matrix converts bionanocomposite films into porous geopolymeric materials with enhanced adsorption capacity toward hydrocarbons in both vapor and aqueous phases. The improved adsorption performance was demonstrated by the efficient capture of dodecane vapors and phenol from water ...
