Battery stability determines energy storage device cost, safety, lifetime, and efficiency. What factors are being studied?

We frequently hear about carbon neutral or carbon negative initiatives, but how are researchers using ionic liquids in the pursuit of CO2 capture and CO2 electroreduction?

The reproducibility of scientific data is coming under scrutiny as researchers struggle to repeat other scientists’ results.

We frequently hear about new “carbon neutral” or “carbon negative” initiatives, but what do these terms mean?

An introduction to energy, why it matters, and a tip of the iceberg introduction to some related active fields of research!

Working with new materials requires a focus on safety. Here are some of the immediate precautions we had to take getting the lab started.

Ionic liquids are interesting ionic compounds that don’t get much attention outside of academia. This post will give a brief overview of ionic liquids – what they are, their origins, what makes them unique, and some challenges that the field faces.
