Have you ever tried to check the quality of your material running a N2 adsorption isotherm? Is the BET area of your material higher or lower than what you have seen in the literature? Is this good or bad? How sure do you know what your BET area is? This took centuries but...

[Jose S Costa @josescostalab]

Excited to share a novel, highly stable & robust #Lanthanide EuMOF that optically senses #CO2 at room temp! the MOF is integrated in #PDMS, reducing water interference!
The work was done wt @nazariolab R.Poloni J.Cabanillas @DavidFairen and @ecsanudo

After many years here, I am leaving. I will continue with other platforms, like LinkedIn and Twitter—blue sky—with the same name as here. I will keep this account open but will not be checking it.

¿Frío en las aulas? 🥶
¿Ventilamos lo suficiente? 🤔
¿Se pueden cerrar un poco las ventanas? ¿Cuanto? 💨
¿Purificadores por doquier? 💸

¿Y si aprovechamos esta oportunidad para desarrollar un proyecto de investigación con nuestros estudiantes? 📝

CEB is number one!

The department has one more been ranked first in the UK for Chemical Engineering in @thetimes university rankings.

@darren_broom @H2Most @HidenIsochema @ImmaterialLtd Sounds like a great plan! :D

[Randall Snurr @RandallSnurr]

Beautiful new materials from @Ruihua_Zhang93, Chun Tang, and @sirfrasersays and simulations of their hydrogen storage properties from @DaglarHilall in this new paper in Nature Chemistry. https://t.co/GA5GACNPt9

@Cyberplasm You will need a code though!

@Cyberplasm There is a visitor's parking, "Parking 8", just after Materials Science department.

So very very sad. Both my daughters benefited from their time spent in research laboratories in Continental Europe in the 1990s. “Roll up that map of Europe: it will not be wanted these next 10+ years.” The UK has a stick in the mud, good for nothing, pig-headed Prime Minister.

Why you don't understand math — and what you can do about it. ⤵️

[David Bessis @davidbessis]

The #1 reason why we fail to teach math: we present it as knowledge without telling kids it's a motor skill developed by practicing unseen actions in your head. Passive listening is useless, yet we never say it. We’re basically asking kids to take notes during yoga lessons.
