The basic mechanistic aspects of the photo- and radiation chemistry of lignin model compounds (LMCs) are discussed with respect to important processes related to lignin degradation.

Electronic-structure calculations based upon the Pariser-Parr-Pople semiempirical Hamiltonian were applied to short-chain oligomers of the conducting polymer poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) to study t

We have investigated, both theoretically and experimentally, the reactions of naphthylium C10H7+ and d-naphthylium C10D7+ ions with H-2 and D-2.

A new generation of catalytically active membranes for secondary amine oxidation and phenol degradation has been developed by coupling the advantages of low-temperature plasma-modification processes w
