Rational design of an unusual 2D-MOF based on Cu(I) and 4-hydroxypyrimidine-5-carbonitrile as linker with conductive capabilities: a theoretical approach based on high-pressure XRD
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-08-25)
Herein, we present, for the first time, a 2D-MOF based on copper and 4-hydroxypyrimidine-5-carbonitrile as the linker. Each MOF layer is perfectly flat and neutral, as is the case for graphene. High pressure X-ray diffraction ...
Synthesis of mechanically strong waterborne poly(urethane-urea)s capable of self-healing at elevated temperatures
(Elsevier, 2019)
Although various chemistries have been introduced into polyurethanes in order to obtain self-healing abilities, implementing these materials in applications requiring high strength is challenging as strong materials imply ...
Bicolour fluorescent molecular sensor for cations: design and experimental validation
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-07-02)
Molecular entities whose fluorescence spectra are different when they bind metal cations are termed
bicolour fluorescent molecular sensors. The basic design criteria of this kind of compound are presented
and the different ...
Design of Waterborne Asymmetric Block Copolymers as Thermoresponsive Materials
(MDPI, 2020-05-30)
AB diblock waterborne copolymers made of styrene (St) and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2EHA) were synthesized by means of two-step reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) (mini)emulsion polymerization. Monofunctional ...
Thiophene-Based Trimers and Their Bioapplications: An Overview
(MDPI, 2021-06-16)
Certainly, the success of polythiophenes is due in the first place to their outstanding electronic properties and superior processability. Nevertheless, there are additional reasons that contribute to arouse the scientific ...
Dual redox-active porous polyimides as high performance and versatile electrode material for next-generation batteries
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023-03)
Energy storage will be a primordial actor of the ecological transition initiated in the energy and transport sectors. As such, innovative approaches to design high-performance electrode materials are crucial for the ...
Recent advances and future perspectives on porous materials for biomedical applications

From Lab to Manufacturing Line: Guidelines for the Development and Upscaling of Aqueous Processed NMC622 Electrodes
(The Electrochemical Society, 2023-01-24)
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have facilitated the transition to a more sustainable energy model. Paradoxically, current high energy cathodes are industrially processed using organic solvents, which are deleterious for the ...
CO2-sourced polycarbonates as solid electrolytes for room temperature operating lithium batteries
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-03-19)
In the last few years, polycarbonates have been identified as alternatives to poly(ethylene oxide) as polymer electrolytes for lithium battery applications. In this work, we show the design of CO2-sourced
polycarbonates ...
A Sterically Congested Nitrogenated Benzodipentaphene with a Double π-Expanded Helicene Structure
(American Chemical Society, 2020-05-01)
Herein, we describe a series of three sterically congested nitrogenated benzodipentaphenes, one of which shows a highly distorted aromatic backbone with an unprecedented double π-expanded helicene structure.
