Authority Versus Competition: Intergovernmental Interactions and Subnational Policy Adoption in Climate Policy

Review of Policy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the face of increasingly complex environmental challenges, subnational governments play a critical role in implementing climate policies. This study investigates how intergovernmental interactions—specifically formal authority interactions and informal competitive interactions—shape the adoption of climate policies by Chinese provincial ...

Highly Stable Aqueous Zinc Anodes Enabled by Synergistic Modulation of Interface and Solvation Structures

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The stability of aqueous Zn2+ batteries is severely hindered by parasitic reactions at the Zn anode/electrolyte interface. Herein, itaconic acid (IA) is introduced as an effective electrolyte additive to achieve a highly stable zinc anode. Remarkably, IA concurrently modulates both the zinc anode/electrolyte interfacial structure and the Zn2 ...

Oxygen Vacancy Engineering of Ultrafine ZnAl2O4 Nanoparticles as a Robust Protective Layer for Dendrite‐Free and Long‐Lifespan Aqueous Zn Metal Anodes

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs) hold great promise for safe and sustainable energy storage, but their commercialization is impeded by severe Zn dendrite growth and interfacial instability. To address these challenges, we propose a defect engineering strategy employing ultrafine ZnAl2O4 (ZAO) nanoparticles (∼5 nm) with oxygen vacancy defects

Electronic Modulation of CoNi Nanoparticles by N‐Doped Carbon for Efficient Lignin Hydrogenolysis to Aromatic Monomers

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Cost‐effective and efficient non‐noble‐metal catalysts for selective lignin hydrogenolysis remain elusive, representing a significant challenge in biorefinery. Here, we prepared a nitrogen‐doped carbon supported CoNi bimetallic catalyst, which was successfully derived from zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) via high‐temperature pyrolysis ...

Electronegativity‐Driven Frontier Orbital Engineering in B‐Ti Diatomic Synergy Enables Selective Li2C2O4 Conversion in Li‐CO2 Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT As a promising alternative to sluggish Li2CO3‐based Li‐CO2 electrochemistry, Li2C2O4 offers a favorable 2e− discharge pathway, yet its selective formation and reversible decomposition remain debated. Herein, we propose a nonmetal‐metal synergistic catalyst—B‐Ti coregulated layered transition metal boride Ti18B18O9/graphene (B‐Ti/TiBOG)—to ...

Dual Synergistic Effects in a Ce‐Modified MnO2/MnO Heterostructure Enabling Outstanding Acidic Oxygen Evolution

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of highly efficient and stable nonprecious metal electrocatalysts for the acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial to advance proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis. In this work, a dual synergistic strategy was proposed by constructing a Ce‐modified MnO2/MnO heterostructure.

An Ultrasmall Strontium‐Loaded Polydopamine Nanoformulation for Near‐Infrared‐Enhanced Periodontitis Therapy via Photodynamic Gas‐Promoted Antibacterial and Bone Repair

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Periodontitis is a chronic infectious oral disease triggered by periodontopathogenic bacteria, resulting in the progressive inflammation and destruction of the tissues surrounding teeth. To achieve reprogramming of the infectious microenvironment for periodontitis therapy, a nanoformulation was proposed by loading polydopamine (PDA) with ...
