Crossover Effects of Transition‐Metal Ions on Lithium‐Metal Anode in Localized High Concentration Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study highlights the impact of transition‐metal (TM) ions (Ni2⁺, Mn2⁺, Co2⁺) on the performance of lithium‐metal anode in localized high‐concentration electrolytes. Mn2⁺ and Co2⁺ destabilize SEI and CEI layers, causing capacity fade and overpotential, while Ni2⁺ shows minimal effects. These findings underscore the need for electrolyte optimization

Catalytic carbon–carbon bond cleavage in lignin via manganese–zirconium-mediated autoxidation

open access: yesNature Communications
Efforts to produce aromatic monomers through catalytic lignin depolymerization have historically focused on aryl–ether bond cleavage. A large fraction of aromatic monomers in lignin, however, are linked by various carbon–carbon (C–C) bonds that are more ...

Towards an Understanding of Enhanced Biomass Digestibility by In Planta Expression of a Family 5 Glycoside Hydrolase

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
In planta expression of a thermophilic endoglucanase (AcCel5A) reduces recalcitrance by creating voids and other irregularities in cell walls of Arabidopsis thaliana that increase enzyme accessibility without negative impacts on plant growth or cell wall
