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 ...
Temperature responsive nano-phase separated waterborne polymer dispersions
(2019-06-07)
In this PhD thesis a strategy was developed to synthesize by means of RAFT in safe and environmentally friendly way temperature responsive waterborne dispersions of well-defined block copolymers which form nanophase separated ...
Three Dimensional Nanoscale Analysis Reveals Aperiodic Mesopores in a Covalent Organic Framework and Conjugated Microporous Polymer
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-02-14)
The integrated analytical approach developed in this study offers a powerful methodology for the structural characterisation of complex molecular nanomaterials. Structures of a covalent organic framework based on boronate ...
Ionic Hydrogel for Accelerated Dopamine Delivery via Retrodialysis
(American Chemical Society, 2019-07-29)
Local drug delivery directly to the source of a given pathology using retrodialysis is a promising approach to treating otherwise untreatable diseases. As the primary material component in retrodialysis, the semipermeable ...
New materials for emerging photovoltaic and electronic technologies
(2019-12-03)
Celdas fotovoltaicas compuestas por materiales orgánicos o híbridos están recibiendo mucha atención en los últimos años como nueva alternativa para abastecer la demanda energética y sustituir aquellas no renovables procedentes ...
Molecular engineering of semiconducting polymers for perovskite solar cells.
(2019-10-04)
El trabajo realizado en esta tesis se centró en la búsqueda de nuevos materiales que dieran lugar a celdas solares de perovskita estables y eficientes. Este tipo de celdas se han convertido en una de las tecnologías más ...
UV-cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide carbonate) as free standing solid polymer electrolyte for lithium batteries
(Elsevier, 2019-04-10)
Aliphatic polycarbonates have emerged as promising polymer electrolytes due to their combination of moderate ionic conductivity and high lithium transference numbers. However, the mechanical properties of the aliphatic ...
Evidence of mercury sequestration by carbon nanotubes and nanominerals present in agricultural soils from a coal fired power plant exhaust
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
Mercury (Hg) in agricultural soils could have negative effects on the environment and the human health. The exposure to high level of Hg through different absorption pathways, such as ingestion and diet through soil-plant ...
UV tunable biobased pressure sensitive adhesives containing piperonyl methacrylate
(ACS, 2019)
Novel waterborne pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) with biobased contents up to 71%, and UV-light tunable features have been developed using piperonyl methacrylate as hard monomer. The biobased monomer was synthesized ...
