Summary: In order to fulfill the Paris Agreement, CO2 capture technologies must be developed to reduce Green House Gas emissions. Adsorption is considered a viable technology due to its mild conditions. Selective sorbents with high CO2 adsorption capacities are needed. This study used branched poly-ethylenimines (PEI) with different average molecular weights, agglomerated with silica at different weight percentages. Adsorption was measured and kinetic parameters were estimated. The results showed that the materials produced were selective and had potential use in adsorption processes, with the sample of the lowest average molecular weight having the highest adsorption capacity.

Summary: This study constructed a 3/g-C3N4 heterojunction by incorporating perovskite ErFeO3 nanoparticles into mesoporous g-C3N4 nanosheets, which exhibited optimal adsorption and photocatalytic performance for the removal of low concentration antibiotic contaminants. The ultrathin and porous structure of the nanosheets increased the specific surface area and reaction active sites, while the heterojunction accelerated the separation of charge carriers and inhibited recombination. This research provides an efficient alternative for the treatment of antibiotic wastewater through the synergistic effect of adsorption and photocatalytic degradation.

Summary: This work presents the estimation of isosteric heat of adsorption as calculated from generalized Langmuir (gL) isotherm coupled with Clausius-Clapeyron expression for pure component and mixed-gas adsorption equilibria. The estimated isosteric heat of adsorption is validated against experimental data and compared with classical Langmuir (cL), Toth isotherm, and Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST). The comparison shows that gL outperforms cL and Toth for pure component adsorption and IAST for mixed-gas adsorption, capturing the loading dependence and composition dependence for isosteric heat of adsorption reliably.

Summary: This study investigated the potential use of Ag-containing SBA-15 mesoporous silica adsorbent as an ethylene scavenger. The results showed that the best ethylene adsorption capacity was obtained with lower Ag content and thermal treatment at 200 degrees C without further annealing, due to the effective dispersion of Ag+ and generation of Ag-0 nanoparticles. Additionally, an increase in silver loading led to a decrease in ethylene adsorption by blocking active sites and inhibiting pi-interaction.

Summary: Graffiti vandalism is a harmful phenomenon for buildings and cultural heritage, and new non-invasive chemical approaches are being explored to combat this issue. This study tested two commercial anti-graffiti products on natural building materials and found that the nanotechnological product Ector was more effective, although its permanent nature limits its applicability to cultural heritage. The less effective Nord Resine could be used in cultural heritage protection due to its sacrificial properties.

Summary: In this study, a design for a monolithic softener obtained by geopolymer gel conversion is proposed. The softener uses a geopolymeric macroporous matrix functionalized with a co-crystallization of zeolite A and X in mixture. It achieves a softening capacity of 90% and 54% for Ca2+ and Mg2+ respectively within 24 hours. The material also exhibits a Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) value of 4.43 meq g(-1) and has been characterized for its density, porosity, and mechanical resistance. The use of this monolithic softener can improve the performance and sustainability of hardness removal from tap water.

Summary: A FAU-X-rich porous monolith was prepared using an unconventional two-stage method involving foamed geopolymeric precursor production and subsequent hydrothermal conversion. The influence of conversion process parameters on FAU-X crystallization was investigated, and the highest yield was obtained at 60°C with a 0.5 M NaOH solution. Crystallization kinetics of FAU-X within the geopolymer precursor were studied using synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction quantitative phase analysis (SR-XRD-QPA). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis showed the presence of well-defined octahedral crystals after 3 days of hydrothermal treatment.

Summary: In this study, the influence of transition metal doping on the electronic and mechanical properties and electrochemical performance of 2HMoS2/NC was investigated using Cobalt (Co) as an example. Co doping was found to effectively improve the electronic conductivity and active site areas of 2H-MoS2/NC at different positions, optimizing the adsorption and diffusion capability of potassium ions. Furthermore, the study revealed the optimal roles of different types of nitrogen atoms in kinetic adsorption, diffusion, and interfacial stability of potassium ions. These findings provide guidance for the experimental design of high rate 2H-MoS2/NC electrode materials and the optimal design of other functional composite materials.

Summary: This research developed an effective approach to enhance the charging rates of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) by strategically incorporating carbon nanotube (CNT) conductivity boosters into Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) electrodes. Multi-layer architectures comprising CNT-rich and CNT-free LTO electrode layers were manufactured using a layer-by-layer spray coating method to promote charge transfer kinetics of high mass loading electrodes. The best performing multi-layer was paired with a spray-coated LiFePO4 (LFP) positive electrode, resulting in attractive power performance that outperformed conventional LTO || LFP combinations.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
