Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets have exceptionally high hydroxyl ion (OH^-) conductivity (as high as 10^-1 S/cm), report investigators. This OH^- conductivity ...

Molecular collisions at low temperatures have become known as a feature-rich quantum mechanical scattering problem. Theoretical calculations more than a decade ago have shown that a plethora of ...

The hydroxide ion is a prototypical base, a substance that will accept a hydrogen ion (proton) according to the Bronstead -Lowry definition. When OH-accepts an H + ion it forms the water molecule, H 2 ...

All acidic aqueous solutions contain protonated water, known commonly as the hydronium ion (H 3 O +). Brønsted acids release one or more of their protons (hydrogen ions), which combine with water ...

This OH-conductivity is 10 to 100 times higher than that of conventional OH-conductors, and is the highest even among inorganic anion conductors. LDH nanosheets may be applicable as solid electrolytes ...
