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 ...

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

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Photocatalytic molecular oxygen (O2) activation provides a sustainable approach to produce singlet oxygen (1O2) for organic contaminants detoxification. However, the charge carriers‐involved pathway usually suffers from unsatisfactory 1O2 production efficiency owing to energy loss caused by photogenerated hole‐mediated superoxide species (•O2−
