A study published in Nature Physics provides new molecular-level evidence from simulations that liquid water is not a single uniform substance, but a constantly shifting mixture of two distinct ...

Investigating the interplay between the structure of water molecules that have been incorporated into layered materials such as clays and the configuration of ions in such materials has long proved a ...

Water at interfaces plays crucial roles in various natural phenomena and in the material sciences. Therefore, understanding the structure and hydrogen-bonding network at such interfaces is essential.

Electrocatalysis, which accelerates chemical reactions driven by an electric potential at a solid–liquid interface, could be a key contributor to a sustainable global economy because it can convert ...

Such 'hydration' can also occur when water molecules or their constituent elements, notably a hydroxide ion (a negatively charged ion combining a single oxygen and single hydrogen atom) are integrated ...
