Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) have emerged as a highly promising alternative to conventional liquid electrolytes for stable lithium-metal batteries (LIBs). However, their inherent poor mechanical properties and limited interfacial compatibility with lithium metal usually lead to unexpected growth of lithium dendrites , hindering commercial viability. Herein, an asymmetric polymer electrolyte with h-BN (HGPE) as protective layer was fabricated via a facile one-step coating strategy. Compared to pure GPE, the asymmetric polymer electrolytes exhibit significantly enhanced mechanical strength from 4.4 MPa to 7.4 MPa, effectively suppressing lithium dendrite growth. Furthermore, the HGPE improves interfacial compatibility with the anodes by preventing direct contact between GPE and lithium metals. The addition of h-BN also enhances the lithium-ion transfer number (t Li+ ), reaching 0.87 compared to 0.53 for pure GPE, attributed to the hindrance of anion movement by the protective layer. Consequently, the Li symmetric battery assembled with HGPE demonstrate exceptional long-term stability, maintaining performance over 1600 h at 0.1 mA cm −2 . Furthermore, the assembled Li|LiFePO 4 battery can deliver a high-capacity retention rate of 93.8 % after 500 cycles at room temperature, showcasing the promising potential of asymmetric polymer electrolytes for high-performance LMBs.

Water splitting by photocatalysis technique is regarded as an eco-friendly hydrogen production strategy. However, the poor photoresponsivity and automatic electron-hole recombination greatly restrict the HER performance of conventional semiconductor photocatalyst. Here, to utilize the stable electrochemical property of hexagonal phase boron nitride (h-BN) and improve its defect of wide bandgap ( E g ≈ 4.2 eV), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was applied to construct three-dimensional (3D) porous h-BN/rGO hybrid accompanied by a carbon-doping strategy without template assistance, then a carbon-doped 3D porous h-BN/rGO (C-BNRG) hybrid with large BET surface area was successfully prepared. As the synergistic effect of h-BN/rGO heterointerface and carbon-doping, the improved photoresponsivity and electrochemical property were presented, and the resultant 3D porous C 0.4 -BNRG hybrid presented not only greatly enhanced HER activity (157.63 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 ) but excellent durability in pH = 8.5, which was prominently higher than pristine h-BN (～36.7 times), C-BN (～12.1 times) and 3D porous BNRG hybrid (～7.0 times). This study offers a template-free approach to develop non-metallic based 3D porous hybrid for outstanding HER performance.

Li-Mg-B-H system with the composition of 2LiBH 4 -MgH 2 is one of the most promising reversible hydrogen storage materials because of the extremely high hydrogen storage capacity (11.5 wt%). Yet, sluggish kinetics with high desorption temperature (~ 400 °C) hindered its practical applications. Herein, a highly efficient catalyst of nanoNi@g-C 3 N 4 , comprised of transition metal nanocatalyst and carbon-based nonmetal material, was designed and fabricated to dramatically reduce its initial hydrogen desorption temperature to as low as ~105 °C, and eliminate induction period between the two dehydrogenation steps of 2LiBH 4 -MgH 2 by reducing the activation energy for the dehydrogenation of LiBH 4 from 200±6 to 126±7 kJ/mol. Multiple postmortem analyses revealed that the in situ formed MgNi 3 B 2 NPs and the H + defects on g-C 3 N 4 play the key role in synergically enhancing the hydrogen reversible desorption/absorption kinetics at low temperature: 1) in situ formed MgNi 3 B 2 acts as nucleation center of MgB 2 and leads to an excellent catalytic effect to accelerate the dehydrogenation kinetics of 2LiBH 4 -MgH 2 ; 2) the H + defects on g-C 3 N 4 , will interact with the H – in LiBH 4 to trigger the release of H 2 at low temperature and destabilize LiBH 4 and MgH 2 to form Li 3 N and Mg 3 N 2 respectively for the high electronegativity of N: 3) these in situ formed intermediates of Li 3 N and Mg 3 N 2 will be readily rehydrogenated as highly reversible Mg(NH 2 ) 2 and LiH. This novel transition metal and g-C 3 N 4 catalytic composites could provide alternative insights into designing nanosized catalytic hydrogen storage system with low desorption temperature and high capacity for hydrogen-fueled applications.

Guanidinium–naphthalenedisulfonic acid (GNPS) was used as a molecular catcher because (i) it contains a cavity and channel in the network; (ii) NH2+ can be used as a hydrogen bond donor, and SO3− can be used as a hydrogen bond acceptor; (iii) the co-planar naphthalene rings can form aromatic interactions with guest molecules. The liquid guests 1–8 [(−)-isopulegol (1), (−)-menthyl acetate (2), isoeugenol (3), 2,6-dimethylaniline (4), methyleugenol (5), 2,6-diisopropylaniline (6), methyl salicylate (7) and L(−)-carvone (8)] are successfully encapsulated in the cavity of GNPS and eight new crystals were obtained. Both aromatic and non-aromatic molecules form hydrogen bonds and C–H⋯π interactions with GNPS. Co-crystallization of 1–4 with GNPS led to stronger C–H⋯π interactions as compared to the previously reported GBPS. Furthermore, compounds 5–8 which were not co-crystallized with GBPS were found to be encapsulated in the cavity of GNPS. We found that the aromatic cavity of GNPS with hydrogen bonding and enhanced C–H⋯π interactions can be regarded as a useful tool for the structural determination of liquid molecules. Furthermore, the correct absolute configurations of 1, 2 and 8 can be assigned based on the small Flack parameters because of the presence of sulfur atoms in the host molecule GNPS.

For preparing finer and well-dispersed calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H) seeds at a lower cost, the waste solution of acid treatment of recycled concrete aggregates (RCAs) and black liquor from pulping were used for the synthesis of C-S-H seeds. The results show that C-S-H seeds can be successfully fabricated by chemical co-precipitation reaction using the two waste solutions. Interestingly, it was globular rather than traditional foil-like. Furthermore, C-S-H seeds synthesized using the two waste solutions had smaller particle size and better dispersibility. More importantly, it had a more prominent accelerating effect to the strength development of mortar, significantly enhancing the early and long-term compressive strength of mortar.

The potential prospect of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) in the fields of polymer composites is severely limited by undesirable exfoliation efficiency and chemical inertness. Herein, bio-based dopamine was employed toward exfoliating bulk h-BN with hydrogen bond action and imparting a highly-active surface. With assistance of polypodamine, SnO 2 nanoparticles were in-situ synthesized and strengthened the interfacial interaction between h-BN and epoxy (EP) matrix. The integrated function of metal oxide/h-BN toward flame retardant and smoke suppression of polymer materials was firstly studied and obtained, in term of reduced peak heat release rate (decreased by 41.1%), lower total heat release (decreased by 30.1%), and suppressed total smoke production (decreased by 21.6%). In addition, the mechanism for enhancements on flame retardant and smoke suppression of EP composites was systematically investigated. Such a design route simultaneously achieves the exfoliation and functionalization of h-BN, thus offering an active platform for further functionalization modification.

Unspecific peroxygenases exhibit high activity for the selective oxyfunctionalization of inert C(sp 3 )-H bonds using only H 2 O 2 as a clean oxidant, while also exhibiting sensitivity to H 2 O 2 concentration. CdS-based semiconductors are promising for the photosynthesis of H 2 O 2 owing to their adequately negative potential for oxygen reduction reaction via a proton-coupled electron transfer process, however, they suffer from fast H 2 O 2 decomposition on the surface of pristine CdS. Therefore, [Cp*Rh(bpy)H 2 O] 2+ , a highly selective proton-coupled electron transfer catalyst, was anchored onto a supramolecular polymer-grafted CdS nanoflower to construct an efficient integrated photocatalyst for generating H 2 O 2 , mitigating the surface issue of pristine CdS, increasing light absorption, accelerating photonic carrier separation, and enhancing oxygen reduction reaction selectivity to H 2 O 2 . This photocatalyst promoted the light driven H 2 O 2 generation rate up to 1345 µmol·L −1 ·g −1 ·h −1 , which was 2.4 times that of pristine CdS. The constructed heterojunction photocatalyst could supply H 2 O 2 in situ for nonspecific peroxygenases to catalyze the C-H oxyfunctionalization of ethylbenzene, achieving a yield of 81% and an ee value of 99% under optimum conditions. A wide range of substrates were converted to the corresponding chiral alcohols using this photo-enzyme catalytic system, achieving the corresponding chiral alcohols in good yield (51%–88%) and excellent enantioselectivity (90%–99% ee).

Metal nitrogen hydride (Li-Mg-N-H) is regarded as an ideal hydrogen storage material for automotive applications due to its advantages of high hydrogen storage capacity (5.6 wt%), low operating temperature, and good cycling performance, but the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of this material still could be improved. For this reason, this paper constructed a Li-Na-Mg-N-H composite system by synthesizing NaMgH 3 to replace MgH 2 in the Li-Mg-N-H system. The improvement of the hydrogen absorption and desorption properties of the composite system after the replacement of MgH 2 by NaMgH 3 was investigated. Various properties and test results showed that the composite system after the replacement of MgH 2 by NaMgH 3 showed better hydrogen absorption and desorption properties. The initial/peak hydrogen release temperatures of Li-Na-Mg-N-H decreased from 135 ˚C/245 ˚C to 105 ˚C/145 ˚C, and the apparent activation energy of hydrogen release was reduced from 114.90 to 104.05 kJ/mol which means the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption was greatly improved. The mechanism study shows that NaMgH 3 will react with LiNH 2 and forms the intermediate product Li 3 Na(NH 2 ) 4 during the hydrogen release process, which changes the hydrogen desorption pathway of the composite system and thus the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics were improved.

Li–B–H complexes facilely prepared via partial dehydrogenation of LiBH4 are presented in this study as solid electrolytes for Li batteries. An exceptionally high Li-ion conductivity is found for the Li–B–H complex with 7.5 wt % H2 desorption under 3 bar H2 pressure, which reaches 2.7 × 10–4 S cm–1 at 35 °C, more than 4 orders higher than that of LiBH4. In-depth characterizations show that LiH and [Li2B12H11+1/n]n are in situ formed in the LiBH4 matrix and the interface layer between [Li2B12H11+1/n]n and LiBH4 is believed to be responsible for the high Li-ion conductivity. Moreover, this Li–B–H complex also exhibits excellent electrochemical stability, which enables the stable cycling of all-solid-state batteries at room temperature.

The sustainable conversion from solar energy to chemical energy is realized by using photocatalytic technology to produce hydrogen and hydrogen peroxide. In this work, the construction of a direct Z-scheme heterojunction is of great significance for improving the efficiency and stability of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) and photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide production (PHP). In this study, P-doped h-BN (PBN) nanosheets are used to support the in-situ growth of ZnIn 2 S 4 nanoflowers via wet chemical method, and sandwich-like PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 hierarchical heterostructures are successfully synthesized. The PHE performance of PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 (∼59.46 μmol/h) is ∼ 2.35 times than that of the original ZnIn 2 S 4 (∼25.27 μmol/h), and the PHP performance (∼122.82 μmol/L/h) is 39.37 times than that of PBN (∼3.12 μmol/L/h). The excellent photocatalytic performance of PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 can be attributed to the following points: (1) the acceleration of the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs induced by the formation of Z-scheme heterostructure; (2) reasonable design and construction of sandwich-like PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 hierarchical heterostructure; (3) the promotion the migration and separation of photogenerated carriers by the built-in electric field. This work provides new ideas for the development of high-efficiency PHE and PHP Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst design.

Efficient separation and rapid migration of photogenerated charges are crucial for achieving high photocatalytic H₂O₂ production. In this study, a K, P, and O co-doped carbon nitride (KPOCN- x ) was synthesized through simple one-pot polymerization for efficient photocatalytic H₂O₂ production. The synergistic doping of metal and non-metal elements enhances light absorption and simultaneously promotes both in-plane and interplane photogenerated charge transfer. Induced by multi-heteroatom doping, especially the form of K bridging, the built-in electric field of KPOCN-5 increases up to 2.27 times that of undoped polymeric carbon nitride (Bulk CN), facilitating the efficient separation of photogenerated charges. Meanwhile, the rod-shaped structure shortens the migration distances of photogenerated charges, further promoting electron transfer and minimizing recombination. As a result, the H₂O₂ production rate of KPOCN-5 reached 3306.6 μmol g −1 h −1 under visible light, approximately 50 times higher than that of Bulk CN. This work highlights the construction of a giant built-in electric field as a powerful strategy for boosting the photocatalytic production of H₂O₂.

Efficient elimination of antibacterial activity of halogenated antibiotics by dehalogenation pretreatment is desired for a biochemical treatment process. In this study, crystalline cobalt phosphide nanosheet arrays on a Ti plate (C-CoP/Ti) are fabricated by a simple electrodeposition and phosphorization process. The crystalline structure greatly promotes atomic hydrogen (H*) generation. Moreover, the nanosheet arrays can provide abundant active sites and accelerate electron transfer and mass transport. As a result, the dehalogenation rate of florfenicol (FLO, an emerging organic pollutant) on C-CoP/Ti is 11.1, 2.97, and 13.6 times higher than that on amorphous CoP/Ti, Pd/Ti, and bare Ti, respectively. The C-CoP/Ti electrode achieves 97.4% dehalogenation of FLO (20 mg L–1) within 30 min at −1.2 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Nearly 100% of Cl and 20% of F are broken away within 120 min, showing the highest electrocatalytic defluorination efficiency reported so far. Both experimental results and theoretical calculations reveal that the dehalogenation of FLO on C-CoP/Ti is synergistically accomplished via direct reduction of electron transfer and indirect reduction of H*. This study develops a highly efficient non-noble metal electrode material for dehalogenation of halogenated organic compounds.
