Thermite‐Synthesized Fe–Ti–Al–Mg High‐Entropy Intermetallic Compound for Efficient Azo Dye Degradation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Most high‐entropy alloys (HEAs) tailored for contaminant degradation suffer from complex fabrication processes and high‐cost alloy design. Furthermore, low‐cost active elements such as Fe and Mg cannot be readily alloyed into HEAs via conventional routes.

Upcycling of Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate Plastics to Fabricate Cobalt–Nickel Metal–Organic Frameworks and Their Phosphides for Efficient Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The urgent environmental crisis caused by polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste necessitates efficient upcycling strategies. Herein, we establish a novel pathway to transform waste PET plastic into a high‐performance catalytic material for mediating the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Through a one‐step hydrothermal process, waste PET serves

Guanidinium‐Based Covalent Organic Frameworks via Pore Wall Regulation: Efficient Selective Palladium Recovery From Metallurgical Wastewater

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Recovering palladium (Pd) from low‐concentration metallurgical wastewater still poses significant challenges. In this study, triaminoguanidine hydrochloride was used as the key functional site, and three guanidine‐functionalized covalent organic frameworks (GCOFs) were successfully constructed by adjusting the substituents (–H, –OH, and –OCH3)

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.
