Celebration time! :) Our paper "Exploiting the ion exchange ability of titanate nanotubes in a model water softening process" was accepted for publication yesterday in Chemical Physics Letters. Ion exchange is a very important functionalization method for titanate nanotubes, therefore, this paper is doubly interesting: (i) it reports Ca2+ and Mg2+ ion exchange characteristics for titanate nanotubes in an continuous flow system which closely models industrial ones, and (ii) it offers some insight into the ion exchange kinetics of the material which may eventually result in better functionalization methods.
It is worth noting here that this paper is the result of a real collaboration between all co-authors. Indeed, every single author contributed something important. So far, so good - now let us get back to working for more nice papers! :-)
