Abstract Numerous studies have reported that the enhancement of rate capability carbonaceous anode by heteroatom doping is due to increased diffusion‐controlled capacity induced expanding interlayer spacing. However, percentage less than 30% as scan larger 1 mV s −1 , suggesting there inaccuracy in recognizing principle improving anode. In this paper, it found has little impact on spacing carbon bulk phase, meaning hard be enhanced doping. After synergizing with tensile stress, however,...

Abstract Waste tyres (WTs) are a major global issue that needs immediate attention to ensure sustainable environment. They often dumped in landfills or incinerated open environments, which leads environmental pollution. However, various thermochemical conversion methods have shown promising results as treatment routes tackle the WT problem while creating new materials for industries. One such material is char, has properties comparable those of carbon used an active electrode batteries....

Abstract Functional carbon materials are useful for energy storage, catalysis, and pollutant adsorption, in high demand, which biomass has become a valuable raw material. Molten salt carbonization activation (MSCA) is promising approach to converting functional biocarbon reducing or neutralizing impact on the environment. It uses single thermal treatment features high‐efficiency conversion, rapid production, low resource processing costs. More importantly, this process, unmatched purely...

Biomass-derived carbon for supercapacitors faces the challenge of achieving hierarchical porous with graphitic structure and specific heteroatoms through a single-stage thermal process that minimises resource input.

Abstract 3D structures have been widely used to suppress dendritic growth for stabilizing lithium metal anode. Unfortunately, it is hard avoid depositing on top of the framework, causing framework lose its function. Here, we constructed a periodic TiO 2 (3D‐TiO ) copper foil using polystyrene beads as template. The poor conductivity makes metallic nucleate surface under framework. Combining with channels fast ion transport, gradually filled whole space No appeared 3D‐TiO electrode before...
