Abstract

Alkaline Radioactive Wastewater In their Research Article (10.1002/adfm.202530169), Xiaocheng Xu, Chengliang Xiao, and co-workers successfully synthesize a novel and robust crown ether–based cationic polymer network (CPN-crown). This material exhibits efficient removal of 99TcO4− from highly alkaline radioactive wastewater through the synergistic interaction between imidazolium groups and cationic cavities formed via specific recognition of Na+ by crown ethers.
