Journal ArticleDOI

Water harvesting from air with metal-organic frameworks powered by natural sunlight

TL;DR: The design and demonstration of a device based on a porous metal-organic framework that captures water from the atmosphere at ambient conditions by using low-grade heat from natural sunlight at a flux of less than 1 sun (1 kilowatt per square meter).
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-heating–induced healing of lithium dendrites

TL;DR: This work reports a regime for dendrite evolution in which repeated doses of high-current-density healing treatment enables the safe cycling of Li-sulfur batteries with high coulombic efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative esterification of benzyl alcohol with acetic acid over zeolites Hβ, HY and HZSM5

TL;DR: In this paper, the esterification of benzyl alcohol with acetic acid has been studied over zeolites Hβ, HY, and HZSM5, and it has been shown that the reaction follows the Eley-Rideal mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrotalcite-supported palladium catalysts: Part I: Preparation, characterization of hydrotalcites and palladium on uncalcined hydrotalcites for CO chemisorption and phenol hydrogenation

TL;DR: Palladium hydrotalcite catalysts are obtained by impregnation of PdCl 2 aqueous solution on HTs and are well characterized by XRD, surface area, IR, SEM, DTA as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interfacial transport of evaporating water confined in nanopores

TL;DR: A semianalytical, continuum analysis of evaporation of water confined in a cylindrical nanopore is presented, wherein the combined effect of electrostatic interaction and van der Waals forces is taken into account.
