Dendritic phytic acid as a proton-conducting crosslinker for improved thermal stability and proton conductivity

Abstract There is growing interest in materials that exhibit enhanced proton conductivity at elevated temperatures without the need for humidification.Here, we develop a dendritic proton-conducting dopant for proton exchange membranes based on phytic acid (PhA) salts.PhA, which contains six phosphate groups capable of facilitating proton exchange,

Present and future European heat wave magnitudes: climatologies, trends, and their associated uncertainties in GCM-RCM model chains

This study investigates present and future European heat wave magnitudes, represented by the Heat Wave Magnitude Index-daily (HWMId), for regional climate models (RCMs) and the driving global climate models (GCMs) over Europe.A subset of the large EURO-CORDEX ensemble is employed to study sources of uncertainties related to the choice of GCMs, RCMs
