Abstract

Invited for this month's cover are Dr. Enrico Andreoli and Prof. Andrew R. Barron from the Energy Safety Research Institute (ESRI) of Swansea University. The image shows how fullerene C60 can activate amine-rich polymers toward CO2 capture for clean energy production. The Full Paper itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.201500605.
