TL;DR: In this article, a concept whereby graphene defects trap atomic Ni species inside to form an integrity (aNi@defect) was reported, and the derived catalyst exhibits exceptionally good activity for both HER and OER, e.g., an overpotential of 70 mV at 10 mA/cm2 for HER (analogous to the commercial Pt/C) and 270 mV for OER (much superior to that of Ir oxide).

TL;DR: The chemical compositions based on the XPS survey scans were in good agreement with the expected composition and a distinction could be made between boehmite and pseudoboehmitebased on the slightly lower ratio of oxygen to hydroxyl groups and water in pseudobOEhmite.

TL;DR: The uptake and distribution of Pb sequestered by hydroponically grown Brassica juncea was investigated and lead uptake was restricted largely to root tissue, suggesting a membrane transport protein may be involved.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of dilution of protein content in skim milk by lactose addition were investigated on the surface composition, water sorption property and glass transition temperatures of spray-dried powders.

TL;DR: In this article, a new approach to the synthesis of fully immobilized phosphorus functionalized hybrid proton conductive gels based on phosphonic acid grafting is presented, and the hybrid silicas with different amounts of phosphonic acids have been prepared and characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrography, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and electrochemical techniques.
