Summary: Calcium hydride has shown potential as a hydrogen storage and thermochemical energy storage material, but its high operating temperature has limited its application and research on its hydrogen sorption thermodynamics. This study provides experimental data on the thermodynamic properties and activation energy of CaH2 in both solid and molten states, filling the gap in the thermodynamics of the Ca-H system for the first time in over 60 years.

Summary: This study characterized the interactions between hydrogen and point defects in PdCu alloys and proposed a double defect mechanism that inhibits hydrogen diffusion. Cu vacancies and double defects were found to act as strong hydrogen-trapping sites, while antisite Cu atoms did not significantly hinder hydrogen diffusion. The effects of hydrogen on the formation of vacancies and defects in PdCu alloys were clarified.

Summary: Perovskite oxides are versatile materials with rich properties, and recent research has shown that freestanding two-dimensional structures down to the monolayer limit can be prepared. The study reveals that 2D perovskite oxides exhibit abnormal band-gap trends, with a gap value lower than the bulk limit, indicating the presence of an unusual quantum size effect. The electronic properties of 2D perovskite oxides evolve with dimension change, with termination-dependent thermodynamic stability and band splitting contributing to the abnormal trends.

Summary: The adsorption of hydrogen on the Pt(100) surface was theoretically investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. The study determined the stability and vibrational properties of the adsorbed hydrogen atom, as well as the interactions between H-H pairs. The results revealed that hydrogen adsorbed on the bridge sites (B sites) had the strongest binding energy, while hydrogen adsorbed on the top sites (T sites) had the highest vertical stretching frequency. The study also found that the interactions between H-H on the Pt(100) surface, within the range of 0.3 < Theta(H) < 0.6, were mainly attributed to hydrogen atoms adsorbed on the B sites.

Summary: In this study, density functional theory was used to evaluate the thermodynamics and kinetics of the antioxidative action of amentoflavone. The results showed that 4'-OH is the most active site in free radical quenching in different mediums, and it has lower bond dissociation enthalpy and higher proton affinity in methanol and water. Kinetic studies also revealed that the 4'-OH group plays an important role in the reaction rate of the oxidation processes. Additionally, the 4'-OH and 7-OH groups were found to prevent metal ions from participating in free radical producing processes, exhibiting antioxidative activity.

Summary: This study investigates how the activity and selectivity of Cu electrodes for CO2 reduction can be adjusted by using organic films with different porosity and thickness. The films increase the local CO partial pressures and surface coverages. Copper catalysts have the potential to produce multicarbon compounds in the electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction. Instead of conventional alloying with other elements, copper can be modified with organic molecules to control product distribution. The study reveals that the thickness and porosity of the films have a significant impact on carbon dioxide reduction, leading to an enhancement in current density and selectivity towards multicarbon products.

Summary: In this study, the effects of phosphate anion poisoning on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity of Pt-based electrodes were investigated using a computational model and rotating disk electrode measurements. By varying the subsurface Cu content of a Cu/Pt(111) alloy, the *OH binding energies on the surface were tuned through ligand effects, resulting in tuning of the ORR activity. The adsorbed phosphate species on the surface were found to directly affect the adsorption of *OH, and the three-fold binding sites of phosphate anions limited the packing of poisoning phosphate, allowing for *OH adsorption even when the surface was poisoned.

Summary: Compositionally complex materials, such as high-entropy alloys and oxides, have the potential to be efficient catalyst platforms due to their vast chemical space. However, determining the composition of active catalyst materials requires understanding the descriptor-activity relationship, which is challenging experimentally. In this study, we show that inferred adsorption energy distributions on complex solid solution surfaces can predict the electrocatalytic performance of oxygen reduction reaction in the Ag-Pd-Pt-Ru system with high accuracy.

Summary: Hollow MoS2 cubes and spheres were successfully synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method with the hard template method. The hollow MoS2 cubes exhibited higher specific capacitance and energy density compared to the hollow MoS2 spheres. The symmetrical supercapacitors assembled with these hollow structures showed good performance and high capacity retention after multiple cycles. These findings suggest that controlling the pore structure and surface characteristics of MoS2 is crucial for enhancing its electrochemical properties.

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
