Hot off the press: publication in JACS on ε-Fe₂O₃ nanorod synthesis

Naureen Khanam, Nico Dix, Ana Vila Costa and Martí Gich have co-authored a new paper in the Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS). The study demonstrates a new strategy for synthesising high-aspect-ratio ε-Fe₂O₃ nanorods using rare-earth silicates as high-temperature surfactants. This approach allows precise control of the nanocrystals’ shape and growth, overcoming limitations of previous methods and opening new possibilities to explore the magnetic properties of this metastable iron oxide phase.

This article has been written in close collaboration with other ICMAB colleagues: Zheng Ma, Sergi Ortiz Ropero, Judit Oró-Solé, José Luis García-Muñoz, and Jordi Faraudo.

New Paper: Cu/Co Nanocatalysts for Efficient Hydrogen Production

Xuesong Zhang and Pablo Guardia have published a new paper in the journal Advanced Science. The study presents Cu/Co-based nanoheterostructures synthesised via a microwave-assisted method. These nanocatalysts enable efficient hydrogen production through alcohol oxidation, outperforming traditional oxygen evolution reactions. This research has been conducted in collaboration with other ICMAB researchers, Jaume Gázquez and Dino Tonti, as well as Arturo Pajares from the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO).

New paper: Review of clinical studies on bacterial cellulose

Thomas Meslier and Anna Roig published a review of clinical studies on Bacterial Cellulose. The open-access article is available in the journal Advanced Healthcare Materials. The review was done in close collaboration with the Ophthalmologic Clinic Barraquer researchers Dr. Gemma Julio Morán and Dr. Justin Christopher D’Antin. This publication aims to become a valuable resource for future research, briefing the results of past clinical studies.
