Interfacial Solvent Molecular Engineering via High‐Safety Dense Separators for High‐Rate Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The dense PPS‐separator prevents thermal runaway by allowing electron transfer through the steel needle during penetration, while the residual electrolyte enables brief ion migration and Joule heating, causing rapid electrolyte vaporization, collapse of the ion transport network, and a sharp drop in ionic conductivity.

Rapid Targeted Repair of the Solid Electrolyte Interphase via a Hybrid Ester‐Ether Solvation Strategy for Stable Sodium Anodes

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
An ester‐ether hybrid solvation electrolyte is designed for targeted repair of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on sodium anode. Preferential decomposition of the confined ester component at defect sites rapidly forms a robust composite SEI, effectively suppressing dendrites.

Properties of [Fe(salen)]2‐μ‐Oxo Derivatives and Their Effect on Catalytic Hydrophosphination

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A series of [Fe(salen)]2‐μ‐oxo and [Fe(salophen)]2‐μ‐oxo complexes were synthesized to probe how ligand electronics and backbone rigidity influence redox behavior and catalytic hydrophosphination of styrene. Electron‐withdrawing substituents enhance stability and activity, enabling tunable, efficient C–P bond formation.
