This paper presents a comprehensive review of the recent advances in xenon-129 nuclear
magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. In the past thirty years, 129 Xe NMR has proved …

The stabilities of organic dyes have been controlled by host-guest complexation and the
hybrids have been regarded as novel photofunctional materials. In the present review, the …

Superamphiphobic coatings with low sliding angles (SAs) and high durability are very
attractive in academic and industrial areas but are very challenging to invent. Here, inspired …

The inferior stability of most Maya blue-like pigments to ancient Maya blue seriously hinders
their practical applications. Inspired by self-cleaning and water-repellent properties of the …

Features such as color, brightness and fluorescence are extremely important in applications
of pigments. Hybrid materials inspired by the ancient Maya Blue pigment are a promising …

A facile method for the preparation of stable palygorskite/methylene blue@ SiO 2 (PAL/MB@
SiO 2) Maya Blue-like pigment was reported. The PAL/MB pigment was prepared via …

Flavylium cations serve as models for the chemical and photochemical reactivity of
anthocyanins, the natural plant pigment responsible for many of the red, blue and purple …

Maya Blue pigment has attracted considerable attention owing to their extraordinary stability.
The growing interest in this field has largely expanded the study of Maya Blue-like pigments …

Palygorskite (PAL) is a promising natural clay mineral for the preparation of bionic super anti-
wetting coatings, a new application field of PAL. Here, the effects of modification of PAL on …

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has played an important role over many
years in understanding the structure and reactivity of minerals. The advent of highresolution …
