Sustainable production of battery-grade nickel via hydrogen reduction of saprolite

Scientific Reports
Nickel production from saprolite—a major laterite source—is critical for the electric vehicle battery supply chain but is currently constrained by the high carbon footprint of the conventional Rotary Kiln-Electric Furnace (RKEF) process.

Chloride Ions: Essential Agents for Achieving Spontaneous Delamination of MXene

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work first identifies chloride ions as essential agents for spontaneous MXene delamination. Without Cl−, etched Ti3C2Tx remains multilayered; with Cl−, interlayer modification enables Li+ intercalation and osmotic swelling. The SPEED process couples HF‐assisted Al extraction, Cl−‐mediated interlayer expansion, and Li+‐driven swelling to produce ...

Leveraging Data‐Driven and Fundamental Insights for Electrolyte Innovation in Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using 640 curated electrolyte formulations, we apply data‐driven analysis to reveal how molecular features govern coulombic efficiency (CE) in lithium metal batteries. Fluorine content correlates positively with CE, while oxygen, carbon, and higher boiling points correlate negatively.
