Abstract The most frequent neutralisation procedure, applied on chitosan (CS) films includes treatment with NaOH base. Such endows CS stability in water, yet, same can significantly decrease the film performance. In present paper, we investigate Mg(OH) 2 nanoparticles as a agent for solutions followed by casting into films. This is combined and compared classical drying from non-neutralized aft...

By using density functional theory on [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics we deconvolute the function of pendant amine bases in proton transfer to and from the metal center. By dividing the high free energy barrier into one high enthalpy-low entropy barrier and one with a low enthalpy-high entropy, a lower free energy barrier is reached.
