Coordination-Controlled Stability of Pd Single-Atom Catalysts under Electrochemical Conditions

Abstract Single-atom catalysts (SACs) maximize atom utilization and site-specificity for diverse chemical and electrochemical transformations. While activity and selectivity have been optimized through advanced synthetic methods, the electrochemical stability of SACs remains insu...

Fine Tuning of Thermal Activation and C,H-Insertion Crosslinking of Phenyl Diazo Ester Polymers

Abstract We describe the synthesis and crosslinking of polymers containing substituted phenyl diazo ester moieties. The diazo groups, which are dormant at room temperature, can be thermally activated to generate carbenes by releasing nitrogen. This subsequently causes C−H inserti...

Solvent-MediatedThermal Crosslinking of SulfonatedAromatic Polymers

Abstract Thermal crosslinking of sulfonated aromatic polymers is commonly reported in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which is often treated as indispensable for forming stable sulfone bridges from sulfonic acid groups. Here, we compare solvent effects on thermal crosslinking for thre...

Assessing Plastic Material Options for Large-Scale Robotic 3D-Printed Facades

Large-scale robotic 3D printing (LSR3DP) has emerged as a promising technology for the production of customized architectural façade components, enabling geometric freedom without the need for dedicated molds or tooling. To date, most experimental façade applications have relied...
