A low-cost CoMoP@C electrocatalyst exhibits high efficiency and stable HER performance superior to commercial 20% Pt/C, can directly work in seawater for the with a Faradaic of 92.5%.
Rechargeable batteries have been used to power various electric devices and store energy from renewables, but their toxic components (namely, electrode materials, electrolyte, separator) generally cause serious environment issues when disused. Such toxicity characteristic makes them difficult future wearable electronic devices. Now an environmentally friendly highly safe rechargeable battery, based on a pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone (PTO) cathode zinc anode in mild aqueous electrolyte is...

Previous research of molybdenum-based electrocatalysts for nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) has been largely considered on either isolated Mo single atoms (MoSAs) or carbide particles (e.g., Mo2 C) separately, while an integrated synergy (MoSAs-Mo2 the two never considered. The theoretical calculations show that and C nanoparticles exhibit, respectively, different catalytic hydrogen evolution NRR selectivity. Therefore, a new role-playing synergistic mechanism can be well enabled multistep...
Hybrid supercapacitors generally show high power and long life spans but inferior energy densities, which are mainly caused by carbon negative electrodes with low specific capacitances. To improve the traditional methods include optimizing pore structures modifying pseudocapacitive groups on materials. Here, another promising way is suggested, has no adverse effects to materials, that is, constructing electron-rich regions electrode surfaces for absorbing cations as much possible. For this...
