TL;DR: In this paper, the growth mechanism of the nanowire assemblies is discussed and branching-growth and batch-growth phenomena were observed in the samples and were believed to be responsible for the formation of the unique morphologies described here.

TL;DR: Nitrogen-doped multichamber carbon (MCC) microspheres with a refined hierarchical structure are realized here via a surfactant-directed space-confined polymerization strategy and can serve as a promising supercapacitor material.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed effective adsorbent fibers for the recovery of uranium from seawater via atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from a polyvinyl chloride)-co-chlorinated poly(vinyl dioxide) (PVC-co-CPVC) fiber, which was employed in the surface graft polymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) and tert-butyl acrylate (tBA), precursors for uranium-interacting functional groups.

TL;DR: In this paper, an active Au/TiO2 catalyst was modified by amorphous SiO2 via ALD, and the samples were characterized by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), scanning (SEM-EDX) and transmission electron microscope−energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (TEM)-EDX), XRD, and thermogravimetry/differential thermograimetry (TG/DTG), and the catalytic activities in CO oxidation and H2 oxidation were

TL;DR: In this paper, an all-atom model of 1-alkyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([CnMPy][Tf2N], n = 3, 4, 6, 8, 10] was used to compare with new X-ray scattering experimental results.
