Li S battery suffers from polysulfides' shuttle effect and unsatisfactory redox kinetics. To tackle these issues, we design a multi-functional interlayer based on heterogeneous Mo 2 C/Co confided by N-doped porous carbon (Mo 2 C/Co@NC) via one-step controlled pyrolysis of Co 2+ /MoO 4 2− /2-methylimidazole. The heterogeneous Mo 2 C/Co as active centers effectively immobilizes polysulfides and accelerates their redox transformation kinetics. Moreover, the hierarchical porous NC matrix guarantees rapid electron/ion transport. Acting as an interlayer, the electrochemical evaluation demonstrates desirable performance. Specifically, a high initial discharge capacity of 874.0 mAh g −1 is achieved at 3C, which retains 373.3 mAh g −1 after 1000 cycles (capacity fading rate: 0.057 %/cycle), significantly outperforming battery without interlayer (0.082 %). This work demonstrates an effective heterointerface engineering strategy for the development of Li S battery practical application.

Iron–nitrogen–carbon single-atom catalysts (Fe–N–C SACs) are widely acknowledged for their effective oxygen reduction activity, however, their activity requires further enhancement. Meanwhile, additional structural optimization is necessary to enhance mass transport and achieve higher power density in practical applications. Herein, using ZIF-8 as a template, we synthesized yolk–shell catalysts featuring complex sites of Fe single atoms and Cu nanoclusters (y-FeCu/NC) via partial etching and liquid-phase loading. The synthesized y-FeCu/NC catalyst exhibits high specific surface area and mesoporous volume. Combined with the advantages of highly active sites and yolk–shell structure, the y-FeCu/NC catalyst demonstrated outstanding catalytic performance in the oxygen reduction reaction, achieving a half-wave potential ( E 1/2 ) of 0.97 V in 0.1 M KOH. As a practical energy device, Zn-air battery (ZAB) assembled with y-FeCu/NC catalyst achieved a remarkable power density of 356.3 mW·cm −2 , representing an improvement of approximately 28.5% compared to its solid FeCu/NC counterpart. Furthermore, it showcased impressive stability, surpassing all control samples.

TKX-50, as a representative of a new nitrogen-rich energetic compound, has attracted extensive interests due to its high energy and low sensitivity properties. As an important energetic material, combustible agent has great influence on improving the energy level of explosives and propellants. Boron powder has become the most potential combustible agent in energetic fields because of its unique performances. In this work, nano-boron-based microspheres containing TKX-50 are directly fabricated by electrospray deposition. The prepared microspheres showed high monodispersity with particle size ranging from ~1–3 μm. Thermal behavior results show that the mass gain of the electrostatically sprayed sample is 163.3%, which is much higher than that of pure boron and physically mixed samples. Combustion behavior tests show that electrosprayed microspheres exhibit outstanding performance in comparison to physical mixed sample, the peak pressure improved by 85%, the burning time decreased by 21% and the pressurization rate improved by 136%. These excellent properties are probably related to their uniform microstructure. Therefore, electrospray preparation of microspheres with controllable structure has a good application prospect in energetic materials.

Exploring high-performance electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbers remains a formidable challenge in the face of severe EMW radiation and interference. The incorporation of manganese oxide into carbon matrix magnetic composites is proposed to enhance the EMW absorption properties in this work. Multiple interfacial ternary-component Fe 3 C/MnO/Nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) absorbers were synthesized through facile hydrothermal, oxidative polymerization and carbothermal reduction processes. The results indicated that the composites designed exhibit excellent EMW absorption properties, with an effective absorption bandwidth of 4.88 GHz (13.12–18 GHz) at a mere thickness of 1.5 mm. The outstanding performance of EMW absorption can be attributed to the effective modulation of electromagnetic parameters through a large number of heterogeneous interfaces, defects, and magnetic loss. Meanwhile, adjusting the filling ratios of the composites in the absorber also can significantly adjust the electromagnetic parameters of the samples. This work presents effective approach for the preparation of high-performance EMW absorbers with ternary components, as well as a strategy for developing novel broadband absorbers that are lightweight and have thin thickness.

Aluminum-air batteries (AAB) have been expected as one promising energy technology for next-generation electrical vehicles owing to their low costs, light weights, high specific energy, environmental benignity and mechanical rechargeability. Yet currently, efficient catalytic materials for air cathodes are mostly based on expensive and scarce precious metal Pt, which have severely impeded the implantation of AAB. Herein, a series of non-precious binary FeCo-nitrogen-doped carbon (FeCo-NC) materials with heavily loaded Fe/Co species and in-situ generated interconnected carbon nanotube (CNT) were synthesized from cost-effective materials. With merits of dense active sites, largely exposed surface area, and good electron/ionic conductivity, the as-made binary FeCo-NC with optimal synthetic parameters exhibit excellent oxygen reduction reaction performance in alkaline electrolyte , rendering high onset potential of 1.05 V and half-wave potential of 0.91 V, which surpass those of Pt/C by 50 and 40 mV, respectively. Remarkably, the FeCo-NC-assembled AAB delivers an exceptional open-circuit voltage of 1.88 V and a large specific power of 188 mW cm −2 , and additionally maintains high discharge voltage of 1.70 V at the current density of 10.0 mA cm −2 . Our work renders a new type of high-performance air cathode material for AAB implantation.

Cu2Se with high theoretical capacity and good electronic conductivity have attracted particular attention as anode materials for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). However, during electrochemical reactions, the large volume change of Cu2Se results in poor rate performance and cycling stability. To solve this issue, nanosized-Cu2Se is encapsulated in 1D nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibers (Cu2Se-NC) so that the unique structure of 1D carbon fiber network ensures a high contact area between the electrolyte and Cu2Se with a short Na+diffusion path and provides a protective matrix to accommodate the volume variation. The kinetic analysis and DNa+calculation indicates that the dominant contribution to the capacity is surface pseudocapacitance with fast Na+migration, which guarantees the favorable rate performance of Cu2Se-NC for SIBs.Keywords:sodium ion batteries;Cu2Se-NC;carbon nanofibers;rate capability;cycling stability

Design of high-performance, environmentally friendly catalysts for remediation of contaminated soil is critical. Nano-zero-valent iron is widely used for this purpose and has high catalytic activity, but it readily agglomerates, which limits its use. To design efficient, environmentally friendly, and inexpensive soil remediation materials, we developed a Fe/Co-and nitrogen-doped carbon catalyst (FeCo/NC). The Fe and Co on the support were highly dispersed, many active sites were exposed, and the two metals exhibited synergistic catalytic effects. The ability to degrade anthracene in soil was evaluated through activating peroxodisulfate (PDS). The catalytic performance of the dual-doped catalyst was up to 24% more than that of catalysts doped with only Fe or Co. The FeCo/NC@PDS system efficiently removed 98.87% of anthracene from soil after 6 h. Moreover, the catalyst maintained excellent stability in both acidic and alkaline environments. The reaction mechanism was explored using radical quenching experiments combined with ESR spectra. In addition to a radical pathway involving OH, SO 4 − , and O 2 − , there was a non-radical pathway involving 1 O 2 . The optimum conditions for use of the catalyst were determined, and possible degradation pathways for anthracene were proposed. This study provides data for the development of in-situ soil remediation catalysts.

Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to multi-carbon products is very attractive yet particularly challenging due to the low efficiency of C-C coupling over currently used electrocatalysts. In this work, we report a dual-atom catalyst (Cu 2 /NC) capable of selectively promoting electro-reduction of CO 2 to C 2 H 4 . The Faradaic efficiency of CO 2 -to-C 2 H 4 over the Cu 2 /NC is up to ∼34.9% with a current density of 33.6 mA·cm −2 . By contrast, its Cu single-atom counterpart only generates CO without forming C 2 H 4 . The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the Cu-Cu sites largely promote the adsorption of *CO and reduce the energy barrier of C-C coupling between the adsorbed *CO relative to that of the single Cu sites, which accounts for the high C 2 H 4 selectivity of the Cu 2 /NC.

This study focuses on the novel core-shell structured bimetallic selenide CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC., and explores its application in Magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs). Through an efficient electrochemical reaction mechanism, CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC material exhibits excellent performance during charge-discharge cycles, especially in terms of high-rate capability and long cycle stability. At a current density of 0.1 A g −1 , the initial specific capacity of CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC material reaches 380 mAh g −1 , significantly higher than that of CoSe 2 /NC and NiSe 2 /NC materials. Additionally, CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC material demonstrates favorable capacitive and diffusive contributions at different scan rates, with a stable and predictable charge transfer process, reflecting good charge/ion transport capabilities. The outstanding electrochemical performance of the CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC composite is attributed to its unique core-shell architecture, which facilitates efficient charge transport and ion diffusion through interfacial coupling and electronic modulation between the CoSe 2 core and NiSe 2 shell. The material not only effectively buffers volume changes but also suppresses the pulverization and aggregation of the active material, further enhancing the structural stability of the material during long-term charge-discharge processes. Therefore, CoSe 2 @NiSe 2 /NC material provides a new research direction for efficient energy storage systems and holds significant importance for the design of future high-performance battery materials.

Developing highly efficient non-precious metal bifunctional catalysts remains a critical challenge in electrolytic water splitting research. In this study, we prepared Mn-doped CoP coupled with nitrogen-doped carbon nanocube (Mn–CoP/NC) catalysts using an in situ growth, low temperature oxidation, and phosphatization strategy. Due to the excellent activity of the cobalt species and the effective protection provided by the carbon shell to the metal core, these Mn–CoP/NC catalysts exhibited outstanding hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performances. At a current density of 10 mA cm2, the overpotentials were as low as 90 mV for the HER and 272 mV for the OER. Moreover, the Mn–CoP/NC‖Mn–CoP/NC cell achieved a current density of 10 mA cm−2 at just 1.66 V and remained highly stable after 36 hours of continuous operation. This study offers a new strategy for designing efficient bifunctional catalysts for overall water splitting.

The catalytic hydrogenation of nitroaromatic sulfonic acids (NSAs) to synthesize aminoaromatic sulfonic acids (ASAs) is an environmentally promising alternative. However, the deactivation of current catalysts hinders its practical application. In this work, we proposed a strategy of trace sulfur modification to enhance the sulfur-tolerance of the Co@NC catalyst. Characterization revealed that Co@NC-S synthesized with cobalt sulfate has the largest particle size and specific surface area. Using sodium m -nitrobenzenesulfonate (SNS) hydrogenation as a probe reaction, the Co@NC-S catalyst demonstrated superior performance, achieving 99.52% conversion and 98.02% selectivity (100 °C, 3 MPa). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations elucidated that the remarkable sulfur-tolerance of the Co@NC-S catalyst originated from the interaction between the trace sulfur species and the cobalt nanoparticles, thereby weakening the bonding strength of Co with various sulfur-containing compounds. The Co@NC-S catalyst also exhibited excellent stability, magnetic recyclability, and versatility in hydrogenating diverse NSAs, underscoring its significant industrial potential.
