A Molten Salt Extraction Method for Palladium Recovery via the CaPd2 Intermetallic Compound

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A designed Ca → CaPd2 → Pd pathway enables acid–free palladium recovery in molten salt. Calcium alloying forms anionic CaPd2, which is selectively oxidized by iodine from CaI2 to yield high–purity metallic Pd. ABSTRACT To address palladium scarcity and the low efficiency of conventional recovery processes, this work presents a molten–salt extraction ...

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

A Novel Pak1 Activator Ameliorates ER Stress for HFpEF Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic metabolic stress is a major contributor to HFpEF progression. Under prolonged metabolic stress, Pak1 activity becomes impaired, contributing to disrupted ER proteostasis, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, Pak1 overexpression activates the ERK1/2–MNK1–eIF4E signaling axis, promotes translational ...

Trace Li Pre‐Doping of Activated Carbon Cathode Enabling Accelerated Li‐Ion Transport for High‐Power Lithium‐Ion Capacitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Trace‐level Li pre‐doping on activated carbon cathodes is demonstrated to significantly enhance Li‐ion transport and high‐rate performance in lithium‐ion capacitors. An ultrathin Li2CO3 interfacial layer, formed through controlled thermal conversion, facilitates rapid ion transport without pore blockage.
