Ionic solvation dynamics in aqueous systems underpins phenomena ranging from biological signalling and enzyme catalysis to energy conversion and environmental remediation. When an ion enters water, ...

Scientists from the Fritz Haber Institute, Sorbonne University, and Uppsala University have made a discovery that can help to improve our understanding of the behavior of ions in solutions. Their ...

In a world first, researchers have recorded exactly how solvents interact with dissolved materials, one atom at a time. After a solute, such as salt, dissolves in a solvent, such as water, the two ...

Phenolic compounds, ubiquitous in industrial effluents and biomass‐derived oils, pose significant environmental and health concerns owing to their toxicity and persistence. Traditional separation ...
