1. Mesoporous Building Blocks : Synthesis and Characterization of Mesoporous Silica Particles and Films
Sammanfattning : Catalyst supports, drug delivery systems, hosts for nanoparticles, and solar cells are just some examples of the wide range of exciting applications for mesoporous silica. In order to optimize the performance of a specific application, controlling the material’s morphology and pore size is crucial. LÄS MER
2. Catalytically active and corrosion resistant cobalt-based thin films
Sammanfattning : Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) has considerable potential for the pro-duction of electricity, issues with water splitting and many other applications in the energy sector. But in order to increase the efficiency of the reaction an electrocatalyst needs to be introduced. LÄS MER
3. Fish in the coastal seascape : exploring ecological processes and connectivity for conservation of temperate fish communities
Sammanfattning : The need to understand patterns and processes in the marine environment has never been so profound as today, particularly as anthropogenic pressures upon coastal regions are drastically affecting habitats and species across a vast range. One approach to further understand these patterns and processes is through the use of seascape ecology methods. LÄS MER
4. Mesoporous transition metal oxides for oxygen electrocatalysis in energy conversion technologies
Sammanfattning : Electrocatalysis, the foundation of electrical to chemical energy transformation, enables the mitigation of the electrical energy losses during reactions and the control of selectivity of the process to certain chemical products. The slow rate and the multi-step complexity of oxygen-associated reactions, namely oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), motivate the use of platinum group metals (PGM) catalysts, which significantly increase the price of the technologies due to the cost and scarcity of PGM-based materials.
