Hard carbon derived from poly(dicyclopentadiene) under specific carbonization conditions offers superior rate capability and enhanced cyclability in carbonate electrolytes. doi.org/10.1002/advs.78311

SURMOFs for opical oxygen sensing in organic solvents as one of the many outcomes of the "Porous Materials @ Work for Sustainability" lead-project @tugraz Congrats Theresa! doi.org/10.1039/d6tc02088g

New @ChemRxiv, study on using hydroxyethyl acrylate to turn epoxy-amine thermosets into covalent adaptable networks. doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.15…

New study: Lewis-base catalysed carbamate formation under coating-relevant conditions. The key point is that base catalysis is particularly effective in reacting with acidic alcohols, such as phenols. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

A novel approach to optically sensing oxygen in organic solvents based on phosphorescent SURMOFs is available to preview on @ChemRxiv see: doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.15…

New @ChemRxiv - a very basic study on the influence of the alcohol's acidity on organo-base catalyzed carbamate formation from aliphatic isocyanates. doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.15…

New work from @tugraz: Lewis base/oxirane combinations as catalysts for transesterification and ROP of caprolactone. is there carbenoid catalytic activity involved? doi.org/10.1007/s00706-026-0… follow up of doi.org/10.1002/adsc.70218

MOFs as catalytic platform for covalent adaptable networks: catalysis meets reinforcement by @only_renner et al. read the new @angew_chem paper: doi.org/10.1002/anie.8126769

We are happy to have contributed to the detailed studies led by the Resel group @tugraz on a transient, previously unknown chiral phase of 1,1'-biphenyl. doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpcc.5c0…

We @tugraz disclosed a modular and inexpensive method of generating carbenoid reactivity in situ. Azoles & oxiranes catalyze benzoin condensation. O2 exclusion not needed. Utility is demonstrated by producing a thermoset from the glycidylether of vanillin. doi.org/10.1002/adsc.70218

Mark your calendars! The next YPRA (Young Polymer Researchers Austria) meeting will be held in Leoben from June 29 to July 1, 2026. Visit the website for more information. ypra.at/frontend/index.php?s…

you can find work @chemrixv on Lewis base/oxirane combinations acting as a catalytic system in the glycolysis of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-20…

We have not done that. The lifetimes given in the paper were determined at the intensity plateau.

no idea - but interesting question!

There's no need for thiols anymore! 😇 Hot lithography with formulations based on novel photobases, alcohols, and acrylates is disclosed in Mater. Horiz. doi.org/10.1039/D5MH01050K

News from @TUGraz: Residual DMF compromises photostability of Zr MOFs – fluorination does not help! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

New @ChemRxiv: interested in an inexpensive way to take advantage of carbenoid reactivity without excluding humidity or oxygen? Take a look here: doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-20… #nhc #organocatalysis #polymerization

Great study led by @_NinaStrasser_ @tugraz on changes in thermal expansion of a MOF upon de- and rehydration just released @JMaterChem! see: doi.org/10.1039/D5TC01746G
