Optimum performance of upcoming thermochemical energy storage and other technologies depends on proper applications of the principles that underpin salt ion hydration. Now, researchers from Japan have ...

A study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society reports that artificial intelligence can enhance protein stability in an unexpected way—by engineering the water around a protein, not ...

Hydration dynamics in electrolyte solutions concerns the time-dependent behaviour of water molecules interacting with dissolved ions. When salts dissolve, ions become enveloped by layers of ...
