Scientists, chemists and students interested in the compounds and especially metals within the periodic table which provides a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic ...

Element-blocks, the minimum heteroatom-containing functional units, are versatile building blocks for constructing functional polymers. In this focus review, we explain the new concept of developing ...

What comes to mind when you think about isotopes? Radioactivity, perhaps? That’s only the tip of the iceberg. A new interactive periodic table of the elements and isotopes, launched last month by the ...

An element-block is defined as a minimum functional unit composed of heteroatoms. The concept of ‘element-block material’ for designing advanced materials was proposed in 2015. In this review, the ...
