Recently, Dr. WANG Zhaofeng and his research group at the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with Dr. ZHANG Jiachi’s group at Lanzhou University (LZU) and Dr. SUN Luyi’s group at the University of Connecticut, have developed two kinds of high performance ML materials, namely YAG: C...
Recently, researchers from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (LICP) report a highly distal selective hydroboration of aliphatic internal alkenes using readily available iridium dimer precursor [Cp*IrCl2]2 (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) as the catalyst in collaboration with Zhengzhou University and ...
Mechanoluminescence (ML), also called triboluminescence (TL), refers to the phenomenon/process that materials could emit light under mechanical stimuli, e.g., friction, stretch, compression, impact, etc. The ML materials could utilize the ubiquitous mechanical energy in daily life to generate light emissions, avoiding the requirement of an artif...
Dr. Li Fuwei’s research group of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been working on the catalytic conversion of levulinic acid and furfural in recent years. They have developed a series of non-noble metal based catalysts and turned the two chemicals into high value-added chemicals and fuels.
The Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has made continuous progress in improving friction property of ceramic coating. They have in-situ synthesized lamellar-like MoS2 in the pores and micro-cracks of ZrO2 ceramic coatings using hydrothermal method coupled with vacuum impregnation, which perfect...
