Electrolyte Engineering Challenges and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Aqueous ammonium‐ion batteries (AAIBs) face a hydrogen‐bond paradox: the HB network enables fast NH4+ transport but triggers water decomposition. This review dissects this dilemma, evaluates multiple electrolyte engineering strategies, and outlines four future directions for next‐generation AAIB design ABSTRACT Aqueous ammonium‐ion batteries (AAIBs ...

Magnesium‐Retention Assisted Synthesis of High‐Performance Zintl Thermoelectrics

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Mg volatilization and chemical instability during high‐temperature synthesis hinder the scalable fabrication of Mg‐based thermoelectrics. Here, a magnesium‐retention assisted synthesis (MRAS) strategy stabilizes Mg using a sacrificial Mg reservoir and an inert‐gas‐regulated melting environment.
