精品干货：SCI论文写作中的一些词（1）

1. 允许，确保，使。。。成为可能

  今天所摘录的这几个词的用法是有些区别的，大家仔细品味一下，什么情况下用哪个词更加贴切。

A. allow to 允许

Advances in the synthesis of well-defined nanoparticles as well as the routine availability of high-resolution TEM imaging and chemical composition mapping are allowing nanoparticle catalysts to serve as model systems that also can be utilized in applications. (Ref.:Scripta Materialia 74 (2014) 25–32)

类似的：

The quite remarkable correlation of their catalytic behavior with the available structural data, coordination chemistry, and organometallic reactivity patterns, including relativistic effects, allows the underlying principles of catalytic carbophilic activation by π acids to be formulated. (Ref.:Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2007, 46: 3410–3449)

B. enable使...能够

Combined with a better understanding of OER catalysts and the ability to control their active sites, methods to engineer the nano and microscale architecture of electrocatalysts should enable higher efficiencies for water-splitting devices. (Ref.:Scripta Materialia 74 (2014) 25–32)

Recently, however, our laboratory introduced the concept of organo–singly occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) catalysis, a one-electron mode of activation that has enabled the development of several useful transformations （Science 2008, 322, 77-80）

C. Make it possible 使成为可能

Advances in controlled environment stages and electron optics now make it possible to examine catalysts at temperatures up to 1000°C and pressures up to 101 kPa. (Science 2003, 299, 1688-1691)

We believe that the development of post-functionalisation routes will make it possible to achieve tailor made materials that will create new breakthroughs in selective catalysis. (Green Chem., 2009, 11, 1729-1732)

注：allow与enable的区别在于allow是允许...有条件做某事；enable是让...有能力做某事。两者在某些时候都有make it possible的这种意思，具体要结合语境来选用不同的词汇 

D. ensure 确保某事发生

It combines high affinity to the π system of the substrate with the advantages of a kinetically labile carbon–metal bond that can be readily cleaved under the reaction conditions, thus ensuring efficient turnover. (Ref.:Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2007, 46: 3410–3449)

This property ensures ready displacement of the product by new substrate and therefore enables “turnover” of a catalytically active metal template. (Ref.:Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2007, 46: 3410–3449)

注：与ensure同根的词还包括insure（侧重经济方面，保险）, assure（侧重思想方面）等，一般学术论文里面都用ensure.

E. secure 与ensure类似

The application of a metallic microconstruction to catalytic reactions requires the development of an efficient method for catalyst layering, which on the one hand, would secure high dispersion and a desired catalyst structure, and would not change the carrier geometry. (Thin Solid Films 2007, 515, 6590-6595)

A central challenge to our society in the coming decades is to secure an adequate and sustainable supply of energy and chemicals to replace dwindling fossil fuel reserves. (ChemCatChem, 2011, 3: 969–972)

F. guarantee 对人的行为或事物的性能等提出保证

Each newly discovered ligand class offers the guarantee of its patenting, an important aspect for an exclusive industrial exploitation in the future. (Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2004, 43: 5883–5886)

A key question is whether or not the implementation of synthetic strategies based on CO2 guarantees that its emission will be reduced. (Chem. Rev., 2014, 114 (3), pp 1709–1742)
