This study involved the in-situ modification of bacterial cellulose (BC) with hairy nanocellulose (HNC), resulting in nanocomposites with enhanced physicochemical properties compared to BC alone.</p> Thu, 12 Sep 2024 13:28:23 +0000 admin 994477 at /science /science/channels/news/new-sustainable-catalyst-fast-selective-reductive-conversion-co2-359916 <p>Anthropogenic climate change drastically affects our planet, with CO<sub>2</sub> being the most critical gaseous driver. Here, we present a fast, effective, and sustainable route for coupling diverse alcohols, amines and amides with CO<sub>2</sub> via heterogenization of a natural metal-based homogeneous catalyst through decorating on functionalized graphene oxide. Combined synthetic, experimental, and theoretical studies unravel mechanistic routes to convergent 4‑electron reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> under mild conditions.</p> Tue, 24 Sep 2024 18:48:36 +0000 admin 994476 at /science /science/channels/news/mc2-cordoba-u-361567 <p>Representing ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù’s Chemistry Department, the MC² facility, and the QCAM-FRQNT strategic cluster, Petr Fiurasek was honored to be invited to the University of Córdoba to deliver two lectures.
