Non-close-packed breath figures via ion-partitioning-mediated self-assembly (2015)
Journal Article
Aw, J. E., Goh, G. T. W., Huang, S., Reithofer, M. R., Thong, A. Z., & Chin, J. M. (2015). Non-close-packed breath figures via ion-partitioning-mediated self-assembly. Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids, 31(24), 6688-6694. https://doi.org/10.1021/la504656j

We report a one-step method of forming non-close-packed (NCP) pore arrays of micro- and sub-micropores using chloroform-based solutions of polystyrene acidified with hydrogen bromide for breath figure (BF) patterning. As BF patterning takes place, wa... Read More about Non-close-packed breath figures via ion-partitioning-mediated self-assembly.

CO2 capture by dry alkanolamines and an efficient microwave regeneration process (2015)
Journal Article
Yang, J., Tan, H. Y., Low, Q. X., Binks, B. P., & Chin, J. M. (2015). CO2 capture by dry alkanolamines and an efficient microwave regeneration process. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 3(12), 6440-6446. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4ta06273f

Removal of acidic gases such as H2S and CO2 is performed during the purification of raw natural gas, most commonly using amine gas treatment. However, this industrially entrenched method is limited by significant shortcomings including low operationa...
