Abstract: A phenylene vinylene polymer derivative is deposited onto a Au(111) surface under Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) conditions using electrospray ionisation deposition and characterised using Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy (STM). High resolution STM images reveal the polymer structure… read more here.

Abstract: γ-valerolactone (GVL)/H2O/acid solvent mixtures has been used in chemical pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass, it was claimed that GVL lignins were structurally close to proto (native) lignins, or having low molecular weight with narrow polydispersity, however,… read more here.
