High‐Value Targeted Conversion of Copper Slag as LiFePO4 Material for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The massive stockpiling of copper slag (CS) presents severe environmental and resource‐waste challenges. Existing strategies for CS valorization typically yield low‐value‐added products. Herein, we propose an innovative hierarchical regulation approach to transform CS into high‐performance LiFePO4 (LFP) cathode materials.

Thermally Driven Hydrogenation of CO2 to Light Olefins Over Hollow Cubic In2O3‐La‐ZIF‐8 Tandem Catalyst

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Thermally driven hydrogenation of CO2 to light olefins (C2=–C4=) using metal oxide‐zeolite tandem catalysts is an effective strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. However, progress in this area is constrained by zeolite pore transport limitations, acid‐site inactivation, and surface carbon poisoning.

Designing 3d Transition‐Metal Doped g‐C3N4 Monolayer for Enhanced Bifunctional Oxygen Evolution/Reduction Reactions Activity: Defect Physics and Constant‐Potential Study

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4) doped with 3d transition metals (3d‐TM@g‐C3N4) has gained attention as a noble metal‐free alternative for oxygen evolution and reduction reactions (OER/ORR). Yet the key mechanisms driving its performance remain debated, especially across different charge states.
