Molecular Interfacial Chelation Enables Wide‐Temperature Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study introduces a chelating additive for wide‐temperature aqueous zinc‐ion batteries. Methionine‐chelated zinc adsorb onto the Zn(002) plane and release Zn2+ in situ, forming a zinc‐ion‐rich buffer reservoir at the electrode/electrolyte interface, enabling aqueous zinc‐ion batteries to exhibit stable cycling performance over the temperature range

Sprayable Polyolefin Sorbents Enabled by Bio‐Solvents for Large‐Scale Oil and Chemical Spill Recovery

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A sprayable POE‐based sorbent formulated with a green solvent blend of α‐pinene, D‐limonene, and p‐cymene enables rapid in situ film formation via solvent evaporation, allowing efficient pollutant capture. The system exhibits high oil uptake (37.3 g g−1) and effectively removes up to 60 mL of VLSFO under simulated marine spill conditions.

An Excellent Deep‐Ultraviolet Nonlinear Optical Crystal Realized via a Functional Group Based on a Two‐in‐One Strategy

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A “two‐in‐one” design strategy integrating guanidinium and carboxyl functional groups was developed to overcome the intrinsic trade‐off among SHG response, ultraviolet cutoff edge, and birefringence in DUV NLO crystals. Benefiting from non‐π‐conjugated electronic isolation, Zn‐GPA(II) simultaneously achieves a strong SHG response (2.1 × KH2PO4), an ...
