  1. Okay, so, we did a thing. Writing a post a few weeks later as the manuscript is up in its properly styled electronic form. Here is a new #article on #electrochemical #copolymerization of #hydroquinone and #PEDOT, which is essentially its title. Apart from checking whether it's actually a #copolymer (rather than a composite), we adjusted synthesis parameters, studied charge transfer a bit, and threw in a little something regarding probable use as an #energy storing #ElectrodeMaterial.
    There are also bits and pieces of other methods relevant to our ongoing projects, but the most curious thing for me personally (and the one that led me to near-exhaustion a few times when I thought that a fluke is an “aha!” moment) is the possibility of mixing two relatively simple compounds, bashing them with pulsed potential repeatedly and getting an outcome of a nice capacitive/conducting PEDOT response, on top of which we can have however much we want (well, up to about two-thirds) redox response of hydroquinone.
    Anyway, we’ve been cooking for 2 years, because each time something happened, it did the result more interesting, until we were finally—well, not satisfied exactly—but sure that it would be compelling as a published article.

  6. Potentials should not be described as anodic or cathodic.

    Anodic/cathodic refer to currents only. Other quantities need not apply.

    Nomenclature matters!

  11. Colleagues have published a new article on #cobaltocenium-containing polymers (well, #polysiloxanes). Our lab has contributed to some #electrochemical characterization. This is also where I realized that, despite the deceptive similarity between ferrocenes and cobaltocenes, the latter are quite capricious, as they prefer #redox reactions in cathodic potential regions. The more challenges, the more interesting the task, I suppose. Anyway, here’s the link: doi.org/10.1021/acsapm.4c02238 [ACS / non-OA]

  15. New #foreverchemical #cleanup #strategy discovered. Pollution caused by #fire #suppressant foams at #military air bases and commercial# airports. The method is detailed in the journal Nature Water. It involves treating heavily #contaminated #water with ultra-violet (#UV) light, #sulfite, and a process called #electrochemical #oxidation, explained UCR associate professor Jinyong Liu phys.org/news/2024-05-chemical #wter #contamination #pollution #publichealth #cleanwater
