Recent Advances in Ozone-Assisted Combustion for Sustainable Thermal Engines

Energies
Recent advances in ozone-assisted combustion for both compression ignition and spark ignition engines are discussed. Ozone, which can be produced by an electrical discharge in air or pure oxygen, decomposes at high temperature to yield highly oxidizing ...

In Situ Generation of a Robust Gel Polymer Electrolyte From a Poly(Ethylene Carbonate)‐Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber Containing Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Electrolyte

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A gel polymer electrolyte thermoplastic vulcanizate (GPE–TPV) was prepared by blending HNBR and PEC by melt extrusion then thermally decomposing PEC to yield liquid EC. EC is absorbed into the crosslinked HNBR, yielding an electrolyte that is mechanically and electrochemically stable enough to permit cycling in a LiFePO4–Li half‐cell.

Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

Quercetin‐zinc coordination polymer coated CaCO3 nanoparticles potentiate radiotherapy through reprogramming tumor immunosuppression

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Synthesis of QZCaCO3‐PEG to synergistically enhance the immunogenicity of radiotherapy through concurrent Zn2+‐induced cancer cell pyroptosis and Que‐mediated hypoxia amelioration through sequentially suppressing TGF‐β secretion and ECM deposition. Abstract Radiotherapy has demonstrated broad applications in treating solid tumors, but the hostile tumor

Pathways to Carbon Neutrality: The Role of Environmental Governance, Environmental Technology, Renewable Energy Transition, and Economic Policy Uncertainty in Africa

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change and environmental deterioration continue to escalate due to substantial CO2 emissions, nations worldwide are implementing approaches to alleviate CO2 emissions and accomplish carbon neutrality (CNE) goals. The current study examined CNE objectives for five selected nations in Africa, spanning from 1990 to 2022.

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

Carbon 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 ...

Durable Fuel Cell Cathode Enabled by Pt Embedded Nanoscale Carbon Network via a Scalable Process

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Platinum nanoparticles embedded nanoscale carbon network (Pt‐e‐Cn) are developed via a scalable flame spray pyrolysis process. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) employing mesoporous Pt‐e‐Cn cathode electrocatalysts exhibit exceptional durability without compromising performance.

Catalyst‐Free Cyanation of Arenes by Acetonitrile in a Plasma–Liquid Microreactor

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
An original approach of arylnitrile synthesis was developed by generating an argon plasma in contact with solutions of arene in acetonitrile within a gas‐liquid microreactor. Plasma activation of acetonitrile generated cyano radicals, enabling a catalyst‐free C‐H cyanation of arenes.

Synthesis of the Phospha‐Wittig Reagent Me3P = P(C2F5) and Generation of a Phospanyl‐Wittig Derivative Me3P = C(CF3)P(C2F5)F

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The first example of a simple alkylated phosphinidene‐adduct (“phospha‐Wittig”) is reported. The synthesis of Me3PPC2F5 was enabled through reaction of the cyclotetraphosphane (PC2F5)4 with PMe3. The phosphanyl‐functionalized Wittig reagent Me3PC(CF3)P(C2F5)F was prepared by treating the diphosphane P2(C2F5)4 with PMe3.
