Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently emerged as promising precursors to construct efficient non-noble metal electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, a Co-Ni-Fe spinel oxide-carbonitrides hybrids (CoNiFeOx-NC) with hierarchical structure was synthesized from Fe-MIL-101-NH2 through unique ion-exchange based strategy. The ion exchange of both Ni and Co ions induced hierarchically structured 2-D ternary MOF shell layer encapsulated 3-D octahedral crystals core. This...

The combined advantages of good mechanical deformability, high Li+ conductivity, and strong compatibility with 4 V-class cathodes make halide solid-state electrolytes promising candidates for high-energy all-solid-state lithium–metal batteries (ASSLMBs). Among these, the cost-effective Li2ZrCl6 has garnered significant attention due to non-inclusion rare-earth metals. However, conventional one-step ball-milling synthesized always exhibits an ionic conductivity lower than 5 × 10–4 S cm–1 in...

A protein isolated from a biosilica (shown schematically) catalyzes alkoxysilane polycondensation at neutral pH values and low temperatures. Replacement of either two specific side chain functionalities (Ser-26 His-165) significantly diminishes catalysis, supporting reaction mechanism analogous to that well-known enzyme is highly homologous the silica protein. These results may be useful in development synthetic catalysts for environmentally benign synthesis polysiloxanes.
