  • Developmental effects of micro- and nanoscale tire particles and recycled rubber on zebrafish

    Creator:
    Mottern, Taylor H.
    Abstract:
    Plastics have become an essential part of everyone lives, found in almost every product made today. Tires only make up a fraction of these products but as their use increasing so does the microplastics that flake off. Many studies have evaluated the toxic effects of tire particles on aquatic environments...

  • Electronic structure-selectivity trends for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonium on 3d transition metals

    Creator:
    Marks, Rylee
    Abstract:
    Nitrate is a toxic surface and ground water contaminant that poses human-health and ecological hazards. Contamination is anthropogenically sourced to over-amendment of ammonia-based fertilizers, in turn generated by the most carbon intensive chemical process in use today. Electrochemical approaches offer a green alternative to transform harmful waste nitrate into value-added...

  • Oxidation Energies of Chromium and Tungsten Substituted Ni (111) Surfaces

    Creator:
    Roth, Anika
    Abstract:
    The corrosion and heat resistance properties of nickel alloys are hallmarks of their importance in infrastructure and industrial catalysis processes, but these properties are highly dependent on the chemical composition of the alloy surface. Density functional theory was used for analysis of surface oxidation of four combinations of chromium and...

  • Metal-organic framework thin film synthesis via a microfluidic pen system

    Creator:
    Chang, Victoria
    Abstract:
    ZIF-8, a zeolitic imidazolate framework that consists of zinc ions and imidazolate linkers, is of great interest due to its simple synthesis methods, low-cost raw materials, chemical and thermal stability, as well as its stability in moist environments. Furthermore, due to its unique structure, it contains well-defined pores that have...
