Political Cycles, Electricity Policy, and Mexico's Economy

Latin American Policy, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Electricity reform in Mexico should stimulate economic growth, improve energy efficiency, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This article evaluates the successes and failures of reform and draws lessons across political cycles by analyzing changes in political dynamics—often tied to policy reversals—and the legal framework during the pro ...

Interfacial Engineering of Sodiophilic Metal Layers on Liquid Alloys for Dendrite‐Free Sodium Metal Anodes

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sodium metal batteries hold significant promise for large‐scale energy storage due to the high theoretical capacity and abundant sodium sources, yet sodium‐metal anodes are hindered by dendrite propagation, unstable solid electrolyte interphase, and poor cycling efficiency arising from uneven Na deposition and volume changes.

Regulating the Boron Content to Suppress Stress‐Relief Cracking in the Coarse‐Grained Heat‐Affected Zone of 7CrMoVTiB10.10 Heat‐Resistant Alloy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates a new strategy for modifying the boron content to address stress‐relief cracking (SRC) in the 7CrMoVTiB10.10 alloy. First, coarse‐grained heat‐affected zone (CGHAZ) specimens with different boron contents were prepared via simulated welding thermal cycles.

Cavity‐Confined Indium Single‐Atom Catalysts Enable Localized Electron Enrichment for Highly Efficient and Selective Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Single‐atom catalysts are attractive for CO2 photoreduction due to their maximized atomic utilization and tunable electronic structures. In this study, indium (In) single atoms were incorporated into graphitic carbon nitride (CN) through an impregnation‐assisted thermal polycondensation strategy.

Improving the Electrochemical Properties of SiOx/Graphite Anode for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries by Ultrathin Lithium Film Prelithiation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐capacity SiOx/graphite (SiO/G) anodes offer great potential for advancing lithium‐ion battery technology; however, their practical application is limited by low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) and rapid capacity decay. These challenges primarily arise from unstable phase transitions and the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase

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 ...

基于模拟试验的SF₆电气设备低能量放电形式的特征气体

Gaoya dianqi, 2011
和电弧放电释放的能量相比,火花放电和电晕放电能量较低。对于低能量的放电,在其造成严重危害前,有必要对其类型和状态做出判断。笔者归纳前人对于SF6在不同放电类型下的分解机理,设计模拟试验,使用针板电极和板电极上放有金属碎屑的球板电极分别模拟电晕放电和火花放电,通过分析气体分解产物的类型和体积分数,提出使用S2OF10的增量作为低能量放电的气体判据,使用SO2F2和SO2的体积分数关系判断低能量放电类型的结论。

Electrolyte With Functionalized Boron Nitride Nanosheets for Dendrite‐Free Lithium Metal Anodes

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) are regarded as promising candidates for the next‐generation high‐energy‐density storage systems due to their unparalleled theoretical energy density and low redox potential. However, the commercialization of LMBs is tremendously plagued by the barbaric growth of lithium dendrite and the intricate decomposition ...
