Rationally Designed Carbon Nanomaterials for Electrically Driven Solid‐State Hydrogen Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A bottom‐up design principle integrating atomic‐level and nanoscale structural engineering is developed to guide the rational design of electrically tunable, solid‐state hydrogen storage materials that enable non‐dissociative chemisorption under applied electric fields.

Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

Topological Insulator Layered Bi2Te3 Based 3D‐Printed Nanocarbon Electrode for Rechargeable Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Battery

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, Bi2Te3 is integrated into a 3D‐printed nanocarbon electrode for NH4+ storage. A rocking‐chair battery with CuHCF as the cathode delivers a high energy density of 134.8 Wh kg−1 and a power density of 1800 W kg−1. The design allows easy recovery of carbon additives, promoting sustainability and recyclability in next‐generation aqueous ...
