ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

Hybrid water electrolysis has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen production. The economic potential of replacing water oxidation with organic substrates is assessed. For each substrate, representative electrocatalysts and mechanistic insights are reviewed to identify design principles for optimized ...

Glycerol ethoxylate (GEO), a branched ethylene glycol derivative, both toughens commercial PLLA and accelerates its chemical recycling to L‐lactide. The lead sample, containing 10 wt.% GEO, shows 9x higher elongation at break and 6x higher tensile toughness than pure PLLA. The GEO–PLLA samples are efficiently chemically recycled to L‐lactide, even when

Green Electrochromic Film Formation via Phenylcarbazole Polymerization in Ionic Liquids
The scheme depicts the three‐step electropolymerization of two electrochromic polycarbazole derivatives, 4‐(9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)phenol and 4‐(3‐methoxy‐9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)phenol, performed at constant potential using the green ionic liquid BMIM TFSI. This medium enables controlled polymer growth and enhances electrochromic performance, yielding robust and ...

Integrated Selective Depolymerization and Downstream Processing for Mixed Polyester Waste, Part 1
Chemical recycling of mixed plastics by hydrolysis generates dilute monomer mixtures requiring complex downstream purification. To overcome this challenge, upstream selectivity is targeted. Tailored reaction conditions enable cascaded depolymerization which is shown for a PLA/PET model system.
