Cellulosic materials present as tissue, paper, wood, or filter materials in low and intermediate level waste will degrade under alkaline conditions if water ingresses in a cementitious backfilled repository. The main ...

Improved carbon capture materials are crucial for managing the CO2 level in the atmosphere. The past focus was on increasing adsorption capacities. It is widely known that controlling the heat of adsorption (ΔHads) is ...

Lithium-intercalating materials such as graphite are of great interest, especially for application in lithium-ion batteries. In this work we present an investigation of the electrochemical performance of mesocarbon microbeads ...

A sol-gel route for ternary lithium fluorides of transition metals (M) is presented allowing the synthesis of Li 3MF 6-type and Li 2MF 5-type compounds. It is based on a fluorolytic process using transition metal ...
