Summary: To address the issues of volume expansion and lithium dendrite growth in lithium metal anodes, researchers have developed a CuO-loaded composite anode with a 3D polyethersulfone nanofiber frame, which effectively mitigates volume expansion. The reaction between lithium and CuO in the composite nanofiber, as well as Cu2O in the substrate, forms Li2O, strengthening the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer and ensuring uniform lithium deposition. The combination of heat treatment and electrospinning resolves the adhesion problem between the fiber film and the substrate. This study provides a low-cost and highly effective strategy for stabilizing lithium metal anodes.

Summary: The traditional process of synthetic nitrogen-fixing ammonia is energy-consuming and environmentally unfriendly. Therefore, exploring new methods for ammonia synthesis under mild conditions is crucial. Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation utilizes solar energy as an energy source to convert nitrogen to ammonia through photocatalysis at normal temperatures. In recent years, the development of highly efficient photocatalysts has been a hot topic. This study mainly discusses the structure and design of photocatalytic nitrogen-fixing materials, such as introducing vacancies, conducting element doping, and constructing heterojunctions. The study also introduces the oxidation process of N-2 to nitrogen compounds, providing inspiration for the research and development of nitrogen-fixing photocatalysts.

Summary: The corrosion behavior of Fe-60 and Fe-83 ribbons in 0.6 M NaCl was studied. Fe-60 exhibited a local corrosion mode and formed a stable passivation film with higher corrosion resistance, while Fe-83 showed a combination of local and global corrosion modes and had lower corrosion resistance. Controlling the precipitation of nanocrystalline phases and increasing the POx content in the passivation film significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Fe-based glassy alloys.
