Researchers unlock sodium-based electrochromic capacity in nanorods by introducing thermally removable dopants, offering a practical solution for thermal regulation.

Thermal management is essential for reducing future heating and cooling energy consumption. Notably, the near-infrared (NIR) ...

Hexagonal tungsten oxide nanorods are highly promising for sodium-based near-infrared electrochromic windows. However, conventional dopants limit the performance of these devices. In a new study, ...

When substances combine with oxygen the process is called oxidation and the compounds made are called oxides. The sparks in fireworks are made by burning different metals. The burning metals are ...

Sodium oxide and potassium oxide dissolve in water to produce alkalis: • Na 2 O(s) + H 2 O (l) → 2 NaOH (aq) • K 2 O(s) + H 2 O (l) → 2 KOH (aq) • 2K(s) + 2H 2 O (l) → 2KOH (aq) + H 2 (g) + heat ...
