Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 17, 8 September 2026.Modification of geopolymer surface with a silane coupling agent containing quaternary ammonium group enables the development of dual‐functioning ion exchanger for both cations and anions. In the present study, the performance of this material was demonstrated for the uptake of ammonium and nitrate from water.

Siral‐HPW‐Supported Pd and Ru Catalysts Evaluation for Glycerol Upgrading
ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 35, 15 September 2026.MSiralHPW (M = Ru, Pd, and PdRu) catalysts are active in glycerol hydrogenolysis. Metal (Ru > Pd) and precursor (Cl− > NO3−) influences were verified. Promoting effect of RuO2 reduction by Pd did not influence the metallic dispersion. Residual chlorine promoted acidic sites suitable for the formation of 1,3‐PDO.
