Kirkendall‐Effect‐Mediated Hollow Bimetallic Hexacyanoferrates for Aqueous Zn‐Ion Batteries: Suppressing Jahn–Teller Distortions and Enhancing Ion Transport and Cyclability

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Kirkendall‐engineered hollow Ni–Mn hexacyanoferrates feature Ni‐tunable shell thickness and uniform alloying, coupling architectural control with electronic stabilization. Composition–morphology co‐optimization suppresses Mn³⁺‐driven Jahn–Teller distortions and lowers charge‐transfer barriers, enabling rapid Zn²⁺ transport and reversible redox.

Deciphering Polarity Effects of Polymer to Regulate Li+ Ionic Environment in Solid Polymer Electrolytes for Solid‐State Lithium Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
We elucidate the fundamental influences of polymer polarity on Li+ ionic environments in solid polymer electrolytes by considering four critical components: Li+, FSI−, residual solvents, and polymer matrix. Beyond facilitating LiFSI dissociation and Li+ transport, our findings underscore previously overlooked roles of polymer polarity, thereby ...

Ag‐Regulated Cu‐Sites on a Conductive Cu‐Metal‐Organic Framework for Enhanced CO2 Electroreduction to CH4

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
We present a strategy of integrating Ag NPs with a 2D Cu3(HHTP)2 framework to boost selective CO2 electroreduction. The optimal composite achieves 65.1% FECH4 ${\text{FE}}_{{\text{CH}}_{4}}$ at 240 mA cm−2. Synergistic effects enhance CO2 adsorption, facilitate electron transfer, and selectively stabilize key reaction intermediates, steering the ...

Recycling Ni‐Rich NCM Cathode Materials From Spent Li‐Ion Batteries as Efficient Electrocatalyst for Urea Oxidation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Mounting battery waste demands sustainable solutions. We recycle spent NCM cathodes into high‐performance urea oxidation catalysts, enabling sustainable hydrogen production and simultaneous urea waste treatment. The burgeoning electric vehicle industry has intensified the demand for high‐energy Ni‐Co‐Mn (NCM) cathodes, yet their end‐of‐life management ...

One‐Step Synthesis of Si–Graphene Heterostructures via in‐Flight Gas‐Phase Mixing for High‐Capacity Silicon‐Rich Anodes

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A one‐step gas‐phase synthesis directly assembles amorphous Si nanoparticles with few‐layer graphene heterostructures via in‐flight mixing. Compositions with only 15 wt.% FLG deliver ~2800 mAh g−1 (Si + FLG) at 0.05 C and retain ~1400 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at a high cycling rate of 1 C, enabled by a percolated, strain‐buffering graphene network that

Architecture of Semiconductive Macroporous Polymer Scaffold to Realize Ultra‐Fast Charging in Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
To achieve stable and zero‐expansion Li deposition at high charge rate in lithium metal batteries, a multifunctional macroporous scaffold utilizing the semiconducting properties of PPy is developed. This rationally engineered scaffold enables stable and dendrite‐free plating/stripping without volume expansion even at high current densities of 5 C rate,
