In the battle against radioactive material discharge, basic bismuth nitrate crystals in the form of Reuleaux triangles, deformed hexagons, and regular hexagon disks were tested for their ability to remove radioactive iodine in aqueous solutions. Shape control was achieved through modulation of the effect of the shape‐directing agent 2,3‐bis(2‐pyridyl)pyrazine (dpp). More information can be found in the Full Paper by W. Y. Fan et al. on page 133 in Issue 2, 2016 (DOI: 10.1002/cnma.201500179).
