Gel-Polymer Electrolytes Based on Poly(Ionic Liquid)/Ionic Liquid Networks (2020)
Journal Article
Sen, S., Goodwin, S. E., Barbará, P. V., Rance, G. A., Wales, D., Cameron, J. M., Sans, V., Mamlouk, M., Scott, K., & Walsh, D. A. (2021). Gel-Polymer Electrolytes Based on Poly(Ionic Liquid)/Ionic Liquid Networks. ACS Applied Polymer Materials, 3(1), 200-208. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsapm.0c01042

The use of electrically charged, polymerized ionic liquids (polyILs) offers opportunities for the development of gel-polymer electrolytes (GPEs), but the rational design of such systems is in its infancy. In this work, we compare the properties of po... Read More about Gel-Polymer Electrolytes Based on Poly(Ionic Liquid)/Ionic Liquid Networks.

Functionalization of Carbon Surfaces Tunes the Redox Stability of Polyoxometalate@Carbon Electrodes (2020)
Journal Article
Mughal, N. S., Walsh, D. A., & Newton, G. N. (2020). Functionalization of Carbon Surfaces Tunes the Redox Stability of Polyoxometalate@Carbon Electrodes. ACS Applied Energy Materials, 3(12), 12308-12315. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsaem.0c02360

The use of redox-active polyoxometalates (POMs) offers unique opportunities for the development of advanced functional materials, but the use of such systems is often limited by their instability in operando. To enhance the functional stability of PO... Read More about Functionalization of Carbon Surfaces Tunes the Redox Stability of Polyoxometalate@Carbon Electrodes.

Redox‐Active Hybrid Polyoxometalate‐Stabilised Gold Nanoparticles (2020)
Journal Article
Martin, C., Kastner, K., Cameron, J. M., Hampson, E., Alves Fernandes, J., Gibson, E. K., Walsh, D. A., Sans, V., & Newton, G. N. (2020). Redox‐Active Hybrid Polyoxometalate‐Stabilised Gold Nanoparticles. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 59(34), 14331-14335. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202005629

We report the design and preparation of multifunctional hybrid nanomaterials through the stabilization of gold nanoparticles with thiol‐functionalised hybrid organic–inorganic polyoxometalates (POMs). The covalent attachment of the hybrid POM forms n... Read More about Redox‐Active Hybrid Polyoxometalate‐Stabilised Gold Nanoparticles.

Best Practice for Evaluating Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Economy (2020)
Journal Article
Bird, M. A., Goodwin, S. E., & Walsh, D. A. (2020). Best Practice for Evaluating Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Economy. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 12(18), 20500-20506. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.0c03307

Screening new electrocatalysts is key to the development of new materials for next-generation energy devices such as fuel cells and electrolysers. The counter electrodes used in such tests are often made from materials such as Pt and Au, which can di... Read More about Best Practice for Evaluating Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Economy.
