Generally, transition metal catalysts are essential for the reductive hydrogen atom transfer reaction, also known as the transfer hydrogenation reaction or the borrowing-hydrogen reaction. It has been reported that graphene can be an active catalyst in ?ethylene and ?nitrobenzene reductions, but no report has described carbon-based materials a...

The 7th China-UK Tribology Symposium was held in Wuhan from April 6 to April 8. The theme of the symposium was tribological issues in transportations. Around 60 people attended the symposium. During the symposium, altogether 3 plenary reports, 14 invited reports and 12 young scholar reports were made. These reports showed the latest development...
Professor Armido Studer from the Westf?lische- Wilhelms-University visited the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) on March 29. During his visit, he gave a lecture entitled The electron is a catalyst.
Stretchable electronic devices show remarkable application potentials in a wide range of fields spanning from wearable electronics, biomedical diagnosis and actuation, to robotics, fashion and textiles. State-of-the-art technologies use flat elastic substrates for making these devices, in which complicated lithographic design and fabrication are...
