Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) with fast-charge capability and long lifespan could be applied in various sustainable energy storage systems, from personal devices to grid storage. Inspired by the disordered Rubik's cube, here, we report that high-entropy (HE) concept can lead a very substantial improvement sodium properties of hexacyanoferrate (HCF). An example HE-HCF has been synthesized as proof concept, which achieved impressive cycling stability over 50 000 cycles an outstanding...

Binders play a crucial role in enhancing the cycling stability of silicon anodes next-generation Li-ion batteries. However, traditional linear polymer binders have difficulty withstanding volume expansion during cycling. Herein, inspired by fact that animals' claws can grasp objects firmly, claw-like taurine-grafted-poly(acrylic acid) binder (Tau-g-PAA) is designed to improve electrochemical performance anodes. The synergistic effects different polar groups (sulfo and carboxyl) Tau-g-PAA...
Abstract Water splitting is the most important process for making green hydrogen. The positive effects of ferroelectric polarization in various kinds water are well recognized, but study electrocatalytic still its infancy. Herein, a family intrinsic ferroelectrics with flexible tetragonal tungsten bronze structure chosen to accommodate oxygen evolution reaction (OER) active sites together freedom tuning polarization. It found that OER performance positively correlated polarization,...
Piezocatalysis emerges as a distinctive approach for producing free radicals to drive catalysis. However, the piezoelectric effect exclusively manifests in non-centrosymmetric materials, which largely constraints use of materials with centrosymmetry. To address this challenge, concept flexocatalysis is explored bypass structural by harnessing strain-gradient-induced polarization, taking advantage universality flexoelectricity. As an exemplar flexocatalysis, centrosymmetric rutile titanium...
