Metal oxides act as bases. Bases are substances which can neutralise acids. When a base reacts with an acid it produces a salt and water. A series of scientific diagrams can be drawn to illustrate ...

Diagram showing the functionalization of a metal oxide nanoparticle with various organic molecules, including trimethoxysilane, amine, phosphonic acid, carboxylic acid, dopamine, and cysteine. This ...

Using a digital platform called DigCat, researchers identified a low-cost metal oxide that performs both OER and HER in ...

Transparent aluminum oxide (TAlOx), a real material despite ... Instead of immersing entire sheets of metal into acidic solutions, the researchers applied microdroplets of acidic solution onto ...

"Traditionally, people think that the metal oxide would be brittle" and subject to cracking, Yang says, explaining that no one had demonstrated otherwise because it is so difficult to observe the ...

Researchers have now developed and characterized nitric oxide (NO)-storing MOFs embedded in a thin film with novel antibacterial potential. Because metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) -- highly porous ...
