Ethylene glycol (EG), a small diol notable for its antifreeze and solvent properties, exhibits unique dynamical behaviour due to its extensive hydrogen-bond network. The interplay of its molecular ...
Formic acid dimers represent a paradigmatic model for studying the intricacies of hydrogen bond dynamics. When two formic acid molecules associate through dual hydrogen bonds, they form a stable, ...
As renewable energy storage expands into polar and high-altitude regions, conventional aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) face a triple threat: dendrite growth, hydrogen-evolution corrosion, and ...
Recently, the Insilico team’s research entitled “An Internal Sulfur-Lone Pair Interaction Enabled the Discovery of Potential ...
What allows organic matter to retain water, enabling its life-giving properties? This is what a recent study published in PNAS Nexus hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated the ...
