We are delighted to share that the groups work on the reactivity of Mn metal enabled by ball milling has now been published in @angew_chem. Please take a look and see how the use of #mechanochemistry was essential to unlock this reactivity. bit.ly/3iZ9jAc
Great to see Will's work on what a mixer mill and #mechanochemistry can do for Manganese metal out today on @ChemRxiv! Huge congrats to @WillNicholson18 and to our collaborators @EmRichards_EPR, @GMagri_EPR, @alexseastram, @MorrillGroup 🙌🦾 bit.ly/3yaAyw6
