Superionic materials are a class of materials that simultaneously present properties that are characteristic of solids and ...

Antimony is widely used in the production of materials for electronics, as well as metal alloys resistant to corrosion and high temperatures.

This video explains ionic bonding. An ionic compound is made up of charged particles, called ions. It has a giant lattice structure, with strong electrostatic forces of attraction.

In this work, two novel Brønsted-Lewis acidic ionic liquids with both Brønsted and Lewis acidic sites in the cation were prepared first, and then their structures and acidity were characterized. The ...

The team’s new compound can absorb electromagnetic waves in the NIR-II part of the spectrum, where waves can penetrate deeper into human tissue and generate heat, leading to photoacoustic emissions.
