Cover Feature: Oxide Interface of Gallium‐Based Liquid Metals: Beneficial Bridge or Hidden Risk? (ChemistryEurope 2/2026)
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The Cover Feature highlights gallium-based liquid metals, where the formation of a gallium oxide interfacial layer gives rise to both a “bright” side and a “showdown” side. Acting as a double-edged sword, these interfaces endow the material with enhanced properties and expanded functionalities, while simultaneously introducing potential risks and limitations.
