Doped Ta3N5 Semi‐Transparent Photoanode Enabling Stable Solar Redox Flow Cell Operation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Synergistic Al:TiO2 underlayer and La doping stabilize semitransparent Ta3N5 photoelectrodes for over 90 h of continuous operation in alkaline solution. The solar redox flow cell demonstrated 12 photocharge–discharge cycles at ∼55% coulombic efficiency using a K4Fe(CN)6|1,5‐DHAQ chemistry. Solar redox flow cells (SRFCs) are photoelectrochemical devices

The novel modeling approach for the study of thermal degradation of PMMA/nanooxide systems

Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 2019
PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) nanocomposites differing in their nature, size, and surface area were prepared containing one volume percent of silica, alumina or titania. These samples and pure PMMA were prepared in order to analyze how the presence of

Origin of Physicochemical and Mechanical Stability of Low‐Temperature Prepared TiO2‐Based Photocatalytic Films: Surface Hydroxyl Density Matching

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Material science advances show how surface chemistry improves low‐temperature prepared TiO2‐SiO2 composite films. Using a colloidal‐based synthesis method instead of a powdered‐based one, researchers exploit hydroxyl groups' interfacial interactions to create nanoscale structures with superior physicochemical and mechanical stability.

Engineering Photonic Pigments From Titania–Block Copolymer Composites

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Ligand‐functionalized TiO2 nanoparticles selectively partition into P2VP‐rich lamellae of onion‐like PS‐b‐P2VP microspheres, increasing refractive index contrast while preserving concentric order through controlled self‐assembly. The resulting dry photonic pigments display defined Bragg reflections and angle‐robust structural color.
