A research team co-led by a UC Irvine chemistry professor has built a new kind of electrochemical device that strips salt from water without relying on the terminal electrodes found in every ...

Hydration chemistry occupies a central position in both fundamental and applied research, as the coordination of water molecules to metal ions profoundly influences chemical reactivity, catalytic ...

Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

A new computational approach reveals how subtle structural changes in polyheptazine imides can dramatically influence their ability to convert sunlight into chemical energy. Photocatalysis offers a ...

Sodium-ion batteries are often described as the next big thing in clean energy storage, promising lower costs and freedom from scarce materials like lithium and cobalt. But new research suggests they ...
