Effects of Simultaneous Sitophilus zeamais and Prostephanus truncatus During Storage of Maize in Hermetic and Non‐Hermetic Conditions

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sitophilus zeamais (Mostschulsky), the maize weevil, and Prostephanus truncatus (Horn), the larger grain borer, are two notorious insect pests of farm‐stored products in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). The goal of this study was to determine whether there were interactions between P. truncatus and S. zeamais during storage.

Moving Beyond 99.9% Coulombic Efficiency for Anode‐Free Sodium Metal Battery

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Iron‐anchored carbon nanotubes (CNT‐Fe) are developed as a 3D sodiophilic host for anode‐free sodium metal batteries. The Fe nanoparticles significantly enhance sodium adsorption and ensure uniform deposition, enabling an exceptional 99.9% Coulombic efficiency over 1100 cycles and long‐term stability in high‐loading full cells.
