Abstract Li‐CO 2 batteries with a high theoretical energy density (1876 Wh kg −1 ) have unique benefits for reversible carbon fixation storage systems. However, due to lack of stable and highly active catalysts, the long‐term operation is limited low current densities (mainly <0.2 mA cm −2 that are far from practical conditions. In this work, it discovered that, an ionic liquid‐based electrolyte, transition metal trichalcogenide alloy catalysts Sb 0.67 Bi 1.33 X 3 (X = S, Te) enable...
Abstract Lithium‐air batteries based on CO 2 reactant (Li–CO ) have recently been of interest because it has found that reversible Li/CO electrochemistry is feasible. In this study, a new medium‐entropy cathode catalyst, (NbTa) 0.5 BiS 3 , enables the to operate at high rates presented. This medium entropy catalyst combined with an ionic liquid‐based electrolyte blend give Li–CO battery operates current density 5000 mA g −1 and capacity mAh for up 125 cycles, far exceeding reported values in...
Polypyrrole insertion in a layered structure of MoS 2 , leading to considerably high interspace layers PPy–MoS from 0.72 1.13 nm. It indicates greater Zn 2+ storage capacity cathodes.
Na ion insertion/extraction in a layered structure of SnS 2 leads to considerably high interspace layers (SnS -HIL) from 0.86 1.10 nm. It enables higher Zn 2+ storage capacity -HIL cathodes.
Abstract High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) have garnered attention due to their remarkable tribological attributes. Predominantly, failure mechanisms in HEAs emanate from stress‐induced dislocations, culminating crack propagation and film delamination. In this study, we report on the synthesis of 2D HEA (MoWNbTaV) 0.2 S 2 which facilitates shear‐induced energy dissipation at sliding interfaces. The ball‐on‐disk investigations demonstrate unprecedentedly low average coefficients friction (0.076)...
The degradation of the hemiwicking property superhydrophilic high-energy surfaces due to contaminant adsorption from ambient atmosphere is well-documented. This compromises performance such surfaces, thus affecting their efficacy in real-world applications where critical. In this work, role surface micro- and nanostructure morphology laser-textured metallic on superhydrophilicity studied. We explore intrinsic contact angle variations via organics surroundings, which brings about associated...
The inability to process many covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as thin films plagues their widespread utilization. Herein, a vapor-phase pathway for the bottom-up synthesis of class porphyrin-based COFs is presented. This approach allows integrating electrocatalysts made metal-ion-containing into electrodes' architectures in single-step and deposition. By precisely controlling metal sites at atomic level, remarkable electrocatalytic performance achieved, resulting unprecedentedly high mass...

One-dimensional (1D) materials demonstrate anisotropic in-plane physical properties that enable a wide range of functionalities in electronics, photonics, valleytronics, optoelectronics, and catalysis. Here, we undertake an in-depth study the growth mechanism for equimolar midentropy alloy (NbTaTi)0.33S3 nanoribbons as model system 1D transition metal trichalcogenide structures. To understand thermodynamic kinetic effects process, energetically preferred phases at different synthesis...
A seeding strategy was developed in the preparation of cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine (HMX) explosive micro-particles by solvent-antisolvent method, to control their polymorphs from dangerous gamma (γ) type desired and standard beta (β) form with size distribution <10.0 μm, using a low concentration β-HMX fine particles as micro-seed antisolvent medium. All products were characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering particle analyzer....
Water desalination is a promising technological solution to water scarcity. While several technologies are currently utilized produce freshwater from saline sources, there remaining challenges including intensive energy usage (e.g., thermal distillation), fouling reverse osmosis), and high material costs electrodialysis). The use of cation intercalation electrodes allows for electrochemically driven capture release ions, thus effectively desalinating using inexpensive electrode materials...
