Thermoresponsive Gel Polymer Electrolytes Enabled by Retained Double Bonds for Thermal Shutdown in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A smart gel electrolyte with thermal shutdown capability has been proposed enabled by a two‐step cross‐linking strategy, which preserves a high density of unreacted double bonds at room temperature. This strategy brings negligible degradation to room temperature electrochemical performance, while under thermal abuse conditions above 115 °C, the gel ...

Chemically Modular, Nonfluorinated Polymer Adsorbents for Capturing Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Nonfluorinated polymer networks for PFAS adsorption are synthesized using active ester click chemistry. Incorporating Lewis base ligands along with hydrophilic and hydrophobic co‐monomers leads to high PFOA binding efficiency. Ligand basicity and pH are found to play an important role in PFOA sorption.

Molecular‐Grafting‐Induced Anion Immobilization in Polymer Electrolytes for High‐Transference‐Number and Dendrite‐Free Solid‐State Lithium Batteries

Electron, EarlyView.
By grafting lithium phenylsulfonate onto a PVDF backbone, we create a solid electrolyte that immobilizes anions and enhances Li+ transport. This results in a high Li+ transference number (0.67) and uniform ion flux, enabling stable, dendrite‐free cycling in lithium metal batteries.
