  • Macroporous ceramics with tailored pore size and shape could be used for well-established and emerging applications, such as molten metal filtration, biomaterial, catalysis, thermal insulation, hot gas filtration and diesel particulate filters. In these applications, unique properties of porous materials were required which could be achieved through the incorporation of macro-pores into ceramics. In this article, we reviewed the main processing techniques which can be used for the fabrication of macroporous ceramics with tailored microstructure. Partial sintering, replica templates, sacrificial fugutives, and direct foaming techniques was described here and compared in terms of microstructures and mechanical properties that could be achieved. The main focus was given to the direct foaming technique which was simple and versatile approach that allowed the fabrication of macro-porous ceramics with tailored features and properties.

  • Water dissociation on oxide surface has been researched in many fields because of its importance as fundamental phenomenas. MgO(001) is a good model system to understand heterogeneous catalysis, gas sensors, ground-water contaminants, and atmosphere chemistry. Over decades, ultrathin film of MgO on Ag(100) have attracted research activities thanks to its enhanced catalytic property. Correlation of the oxide and the metal, potential screening, charge fluctuation from interface reconstruction makes different energetics of hydroxylation of waters on film. We calculate the water-spliting energetics under the vacuum system.

  • 본 연구에서는 유기적으로 기능화된 은 나노 입자들은 공기와 물이 형성하는 계면에서 자발적 조립 과정을 통해 새로운 2차원 상부 구조들(superstructures)을 생성하는 것을 발견하였다. 상부 구조의 분석은 금속 나노 입자의 심형과 입자계면에 결합된 유기 분자의 크기를 바꿈으로써 입자 간 특징적 상호 작용(characteristic inter-particle interaction)을 조절할 수 있고 이들 사이의 미묘한 상호 작용(subtle interplay)을 통해 은 나노 입자의 2차원 조립이 발생함을 시사한다. 본 연구를 통해 발견한 새로운 구조들은 기능성 나노 소재, 촉매 및 소자 응용 분야에 매우 중요한 잠재적 용도가 있을 것이라 사료된다.

  • Taq DNA polymerase from Thermus aquaticus has been shown to be very useful in a polymerase chain reaction. Taq DNA polymerase has a domain at the amino terminus (residues 1 to 290) that has 5'-3' exonuclease activity and a domain at the C-terminus that catalyzes the polymerase reaction. Taq DNA polymerase is classified into the Pol I family, which is represented by E. coli DNA polymerase I. The alignment of amino acid sequences for the 5'-3' exonuclease domains of the Pol I family DNA polymerases shows ten highly conserved carboxylic amino acids. Crystallographic studies suggested that six of the carboxylic amino acids are clustered within a 7 $\AA$ radius by chelating three metal ions in the active site. Those six carboxylic residues are mutagenized to alanines in order to better understand their function. All six carboxylic residues, Asp l8, Glu1l7, Asp1l9, Asp120, Asp142, and Aspl44, are crucial for catalysis of 5'-3' exonuclease.

  • Nitrogenase, comprised of the MoFe and Fe proteins, catalyzes the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia at ambient temperature and pressure. The MoFe protein contains two metal centers, the P-cluster (Fe8S7-8) and the FeMo-cofactor (Fe7S9:homocitrate), the substrate binding site. Despite the availability of the crystal structure of the MoFe protein, suprisingly little is known about the molecular details of catalysis at the active site, and no small-molecule substrate or inhibitor had ever been shown to directly interact with a protein-bound cluster of the functioning enzyme, until our electron-nuclear double resonance(ENDOR) study of CO-inhibited nitrogenase.(omitted)

  • Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as $MoS_2$ is the thinnest semiconductor, exhibits promising prospects in the applications of optoelectronics, catalysis and hydrogen storage devices. Uniform and high quality $MoS_2$ is highly desirable in large area for its applications on commercial scale and fundamental research. Many experimental techniques i.e CVD have been developed to successfully synthesis $MoS_2$ on large scale, here in this work atomistic detail to understand the growth mechanism is addressed which was greatly overlooked. Here based on first principles calculation we found that polarity of seeding promter (crystal violet considerd in this work) controls the growth mechanism. It is also found that molybdenum destroys the precursor while sulfur adsorption with precursor is favorable.

  • Fluorine compounds have attracted interest of scientists for immense applications in medicinal chemistry and pharmaceuticals. Recently, photoredox catalysts, both organic-based and metal-based compounds, have been employed in organic synthetic methodology to achieve desirable products due to facile operation and mild reaction condition. Various protocols to prepare fluorination adducts in the presence of photoredox catalysts have been developed from several starting materials with formation of radical scaffolds. In this review, we describe recent advances in the fluorination using light.

  • Pseudo-first-order rate constants ($k_{obsd}$) have been measured spectrophotometrically for the reactions of 5-nitro-8-quinolyl nicotinate (4) and 5-nitro-8-quinolyl isonicotinate (5) with alkali metal ethoxides (EtOM; M = K, Na and Li) in anhydrous ethanol at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. The plots of $k_{obsd}$ vs. [EtOM] curve slightly upward for the reactions with EtOK and EtONa but are linear for the reactions with EtOLi and for those with EtOK in the presence of 18-crown-6-ether. Dissection of $k_{obsd}$ into $k_{EtO^-}$ and $k_{EtOM}$ (i.e., the second-order rate constants for the reactions with the dissociated $EtO^-$ and ion-paired EtOM, respectively) has revealed that the reactivity increases in the order $EtO^-{\approx}EtOLi$ < EtOK < EtONa for the reactions of 4 and EtOLi < $EtO^-$ < EtOK < EtONa for the reactions of 5. Comparison of the kinetic results for the reactions of 4 and 5 with those reported previously for the corresponding reactions of 5-nitro-8-quinolyl benzoate (2) and picolinate (3) has revealed that the esters possessing a pyridine ring (i.e., 3-5) are significantly more reactive than the benzoate ester 2 due to the presence of the electronegative N atom (e.g., 2 << 3 < 4 < 5). It has been concluded that $M^+$ ion catalyzes the reactions of 3-5 by increasing the electrophilicity of the reaction center through a five-membered cyclic transition state (TS) for the reaction of 3 and via a four-membered cyclic TS for the reactions of 4 and 5.

  • With high specific surface area and pore structural diversity, MOFs show important applications in gas storage, catalysis, sensing, separation, and biomedicine. However, the stability of the structure of MOFs has restricted their application and development. In this study, zirconium metal organic frameworks with 9,10-dicarboxylic acid anthracene as ligand, named UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$), were synthesized and their properties and structures were characterized by XRD, SEM, and $N_2$ adsorption. We focus on the stability of the structure of UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) under different conditions (acid, alkali, and water). The structural changes or ruins of UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) were traced by means of XRD, TG, and FT-IR under different conditions. The results show that the UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) materials are stable at 583 K, and that this structural stability is greatly influenced by different types of acid and alkali compounds. Importantly, we found that the structures maintain their stability in environments of nitric acid, triethylamine, and boiling water.

  • Due to its characteristics of light weight, high energy density, good safety, long service life, no memory effect, and environmental friendliness, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used in various portable electronic products. The capacity and performance of LIBs largely depend on the performance of electrode materials. Therefore, the development of better positive and negative materials is the focus of current research. The application of metal organic framework materials (MOFs) derivatives in energy storage has attracted much attention and research. Using MOFs as precursors, porous metal oxides and porous carbon materials with controllable structure can be obtained. In this paper, rod-shaped Co-MOF-74 was grown on Ni Foam (NF) by hydrothermal method, and then Co-MOF-74/NF precursor was heat-treated to obtain rodshaped Co3O4/NF. Ni Foam was skeleton structured, which effectively relieved. The change of internal stress changes and destroys the structural volume of the electrode material and reduces the capacity attenuation. Co3O4/NF composite material has a specific discharge capacity of up to 1858 mA h/g for the first time, and a reversible capacity of up to 902.4 mA h/g at a current density of 200 mA/g, and has excellent rate and impedance performance. The synthesis strategy reported in this article opens the way to design high-performance electrodes for energy storage and electrochemical catalysis.
