Tunable Redox‐Active Anhydride‐Based Linear Polymer as Organic Cathodes for Chemically Self‐Charging Aqueous Zinc–Ion Batteries

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemically self‐charging aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs) have emerged as promising candidates for energy storage technologies owing to their environmental autonomy and structural simplicity. Nonetheless, the self‐charging performance is significantly compromised by the limited potential difference between cathodes and oxygen, as well as the

Phosphorus‐Doping Drives the Formation of a Pt‐Skin@PtFe Alloy Catalyst With Modulated d‐Band Center for Oxygen Reduction

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Platinum (Pt)‐based catalysts are crucial for the commercialization of hydrogen/metal air batteries, but they suffer from Pt scarcity, high cost, and nanoparticle dissolution/agglomeration, mainly leading to performance degradation. We address this by synthesizing a PtFe alloy catalyst (PtFe–PA–NC) via a phytic acid (PA) assisted pyrolysis ...

Redox Reaction and Dissolution Analysis for Hollow C Nanospheres Comprising N‐Doped C Framework With Abundant Ni–Co Heteronuclear Catalysts for Highly Durable K‒Te Batteries

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Tellurium (Te), emerging as a promising alternative to sulfur (S) and selenium (Se), offers significant advantages for potassium (K) ion storage due to its comparable theoretical volumetric capacity (2619 mAh cm−3) and higher electronic conductivity (∼102 S m−1), which promotes rapid charge transfer and improves reaction kinetics.
