Water is the sustainable solvent of excellence, but its high polarity limits the solubility of non-
polar compounds. Confinement of water in hydrophobic pores alters its hydrogen bonding …

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has played an important role over many
years in understanding the structure and reactivity of minerals. The advent of highresolution …

Water confined in cylindrical pores of silica with a diameter of 2 nm was studied by positron
annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. Instead of freezing at 273 K, the glass-like transition …

A joint modeling (molecular dynamics simulations)/experimental (broadband dielectric
spectroscopy) approach was conducted to investigate the water adsorption in the UiO-66 …

133Cs nuclear magnetic resonance is used to quantify the mobility of cesium counterions
confined within the interlamellar space of synthetic Hectorite clay under controlled hydration …

2H NMR spectroscopy, relaxometry, and two-time correlation measurements are used to
investigate the structural and dynamical properties of water molecules confined within the …

We investigated the molecular origin of the phase behavior of water confined in MCM 41
mesopores at different levels of hydration using positron annihilation spectroscopic and …

The low temperature behavior of water and kinetics of ice nucleation in titania mesopores
have been probed by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy as a function of pore filling …

Microbial natural products has drawn a great attention from both academia and industry.
Obtaining the planar, relative, and possibly the absolute configuration of such novel …

“The [spore dormancy] hypothesis that the bare essentials of a vegetative cell-DNA and
indispensable enzymes-are rendered hydrophobic or otherwise stabilized on a molecular …
