Hybrid Photoanodes Based on Surface-Bound Host-Guest Molecular Assemblies

Academic Background In the field of solar energy conversion, molecular catalysts have attracted significant attention due to their high activity and structural tunability. However, most molecular catalysts operate under homogeneous conditions, which are not favorable for large-scale and recyclable utilization. Therefore, immobilizing molecular cata...

Enhancing Decentralized Energy Storage Investments with Artificial Intelligence-Driven Decision Models

Academic Background As the global energy structure transitions towards renewable energy, the importance of decentralized energy storage is becoming increasingly prominent. Unlike traditional centralized energy storage systems, decentralized energy storage localizes the energy production and storage processes, reducing the risk of large-scale system...

A Pickering-Emulsion-Droplet-Integrated Electrode for the Continuous-Flow Electrosynthesis of Oximes

Cyclohexanone oxime is a critical intermediate in the production of nylon-6, with global nylon-6 production projected to reach 8.9 million tons by 2024, leading to an increasing demand for cyclohexanone oxime. Traditional methods for synthesizing cyclohexanone oxime primarily involve the reaction of hydroxylamine (NH2OH) with cyclohexanone. However...
