Development and study of ruthenium catalysts for olefin metathesis displaying cis-dichloro configuration with monodentate ligans
(University of St Andrews, 2014-11) - ThesisNew cis-dichloro ruthenium-based pre-catalysts for olefin metathesis reaction were synthesised. This work was inspired by the report of complex cis-Caz-1 in 2010, a 2nd generation-type pre-catalyst displaying latent character ... -
Crystalline polymer and 3D ceramic-polymer electrolytes for Li-ion batteries
(University of St Andrews, 2014-06) - ThesisThe research work presented in this thesis comprises a detailed investigation of conductivity mechanism in crystalline polymer electrolytes and development of a new class of ceramic-polymer composite electrolytes for Li-ion ... -
Novel preparative routes to nanostructured materials for fuel cell applications
(University of St Andrews, 2014-11) - ThesisNanostructured materials with high specific surface areas and high pore volumes are of interest for applications in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). This study describes the use of novel preparative methods for obtaining ... -
A possible low-intermediate temperature proton conductor based on silicon oxide phosphate
(University of St Andrews, 2015-05) - ThesisThe main material studied in this project is silicon oxide phosphate, often referred to in the literature as Si₅O(PO₄)₆. This material has highly unusual coordination of the silicon (octahedral, as well as the more common ... -
Hydrate crystal structures, radial distribution functions, and computing solubility
(University of St Andrews, 2017-12) - ThesisSolubility prediction usually refers to prediction of the intrinsic aqueous solubility, which is the concentration of an unionised molecule in a saturated aqueous solution at thermodynamic equilibrium at a given temperature. ...
