Superabsorbent materials derived from lignocellulosic biomass materials can hold more than 100000% of the water from their dry weight.

Tris-(1-Carboxyl-2-Phenyl-1, 2-Ethylenodithiolenic-S,S?)Tungsten is found to be good photocatalyst for photolysis of water. A new molecule with three dithiolene groups and three benzene groups was synthesized. Both groups are good in absorbing solar…
