Valuable information about the local environment of the aluminum nucleus can be obtained
through 27 Al Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) parameters like the isotropic chemical …

Fluorine containing oxidizers, primarily polymers, are extensively used in pyrotechnic
compositions. Fluorinated oxidizers are less explored for metalized propellants and …

The thermal instability of the cathode materials in lithium‐ion batteries is an important safety
issue, requiring the incorporation of several approaches to prevent thermal runaway and …

Time-resolved X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption fine structure, and first-principles density
functional calculations were used to investigate the reaction of CuO and Cu2O with H2 in …

An image-plate (IP) detector coupled with high-energy synchrotron radiation was used for
atomic pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, with high probed momentum transfer …

The nanoporous metal− organic framework [Fe (pz) Ni (CN) 4], 1 (where pz is pyrazine),
exhibits hysteretic spin-crossover at ambient conditions and is robust to the adsorption and …

A compact reaction cell is described for in-situ experiments requiring control of both the
temperature of the sample and the atmosphere over the sample. The cell incorporates an …

Reduction of an oxide in hydrogen is a method frequently employed in the preparation of
active catalysts and electronic devices. Synchrotron-based time-resolved X-ray diffraction …

The catalytic conversion of CO 2 to fuels or chemicals is considered to be an effective
pathway to mitigate the greenhouse effect. To develop new types of efficient and durable …

CuO is used as a catalyst or catalyst precursor in many chemical reactions that involve
hydrogen as a reactant or product. A systematic study of the reaction of H 2 with pure …
