Optimizing Intermediate Adsorption on FeNi3 Alloy by Substrate Defect‐Engineering for Enhanced Oxygen Electrocatalysis

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The presence of carbon edge defects and graphitic valley nitrogen significantly alters the energy band structure of the catalyst, enhancing the desorption of oxygen‐containing intermediates and thereby improving the performance of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and zinc‐air battery (ZAB).

Copper‐Based Conductive Nanoinks: Scalable Synthesis via Continuous‐Flow Microwave‐Assisted Polyol Process

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Microwave‐assisted polyol synthesis in continuous flow produces metallic Cu nanoparticles, using ethylene glycol as solvent and reducing agent, lignin to stabilize the colloid and prevent oxidation, and metal‐seeds for particle size control. Metallic copper nanoparticles are a promising alternative to gold and silver in printed electronics due to their

“Win‐Win” Structural Engineering of Chinese Herb Residues‐Derived Porous Graphitic Carbons: Decoupling the Porosity‐Graphitization Antagonism for Ultrahigh‐Rate Supercapacitors

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work proposes a strategy that overcomes the porosity‐graphitization antagonism in carbon materials, converting Sargentodoxa cuneata residue into porous graphitic carbons to enable sustainable, high‐performance energy storage from biomass waste. The antagonism between porosity and graphitization critically limits carbon supercapacitor performance ...
