Ion specific effects on charged interfaces
… phenomena occurring at charged interfaces are specifically affected by the type and the concentration of electrolytes. This has implications both in living and in inorganic systems. The discovery of the ‘ion specific effects’ dates back to Hofmeister (1888), who observed the specific effect of …

Nanoscale insight into tribomechanical and hydrothermal process at calcite surface
Fault slip and earthquake nucleation are controlled by interfacial processes that operate at the nanoscale, where chemical, mechanical, and thermal effects converge to regulate frictional behavior. Among the minerals that compose the lithosphere, calcite is particularly significant due to its …

Star-shaped Polyelectrolytes
… by means of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) utilizing the core-first approach. Star-shaped poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) with 5, 8 and 21 arms and different arm lengths was prepared via the corresponding poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PtBA) precursors having a glucose, saccharose or …
