Summary: Composite solid electrolytes with polymer in ceramic were prepared using lithium aluminum titanium phosphate as a matrix and modified poly(ionic liquid) as a binder. The addition of a poly(ionic liquid)-based binder not only provided flexibility to the solid electrolytes, but also significantly improved their ionic conductivity. The highest ionic conductivity was achieved when the LATP content in the composite solid electrolytes was 50 wt.%. The study also examined the compression resistance of the electrolytes and found that the hardness was highest at a LATP content of 50 wt.%.

Summary: This study explored the pretreatment of high-solid diol deep eutectic solvent (DES) using wet substrate, resulting in a glucan saccharification rate of 94.8% and efficient removal of lignin and xylan (63.1% and 73.0%, respectively). Comprehensive analysis of the substrate's chemical structures revealed the impact of the pretreatment. Moreover, more than 90% of the removed lignin was recovered from the pretreated liquid, showing a well-preserved beta-O-4 structure (46-56/100Ar). The protective mechanism of the DES was investigated using 2D HSQC NMR, GPC, and P-31 NMR analysis. This study emphasized the significant utilization of carbohydrates and lignin fractions with high saccharification yields and high-quality lignin as a co-product through diol-based DES pretreatment of undried lignocellulosic biomass at a high-solid loading.

Summary: A series of transition metal-promoted carbon-silicon solid acid catalysts were prepared and used for the acetalization of benzaldehyde with ethylene glycol. Among these catalysts, C-Fe-Si showed the highest catalytic activity, with a benzaldehyde glycol acetal yield of 97.67%, which closely matched the predicted value by response surface methodology. The excellent activity, stability, and reusability of the C-Fe-Si catalyst can be attributed to its suitable acidity and uniform surface distribution of active sites.

Summary: The effect of structural properties of fluorinated graphene (FG) on the supercapacitive properties in KI additive electrolyte was investigated. The adjustment of porous structure and surface F element content of FG through chemical reduction and heating treatment led to a dramatic increase in specific capacitance in KI additive electrolyte compared to pure H2SO4 electrolyte. The relationship between F content and areal capacitance revealed that a small amount of F content, particularly semi-ionic C-F species, can effectively promote the areal capacitance. The assembled symmetric supercapacitor with moderate F content and high specific surface area exhibited an energy density of 8.89 Wh kg-1 and long cyclic stability.

Summary: Zinc phytate was used as a sacrificial template to synthesize porous carbon for supercapacitors. The resulting carbon material had a hierarchically porous structure with a specific surface area of 1125 m(2) g(-1). Adjusting the pore structure was achieved by introducing KOH during the preparation of the phytate salt, leading to an increase in micropore content. The introduction of in-situ K activation instead of KOH activation resulted in the formation of dual-metal phytates and contributed to the micropores in the prepared carbon material. With increased microporosity, the specific capacitance of the carbon material improved.

Summary: A facile one-step approach was developed to construct N-doping carbon-encapsulated metal catalysts (M@N-C, M = Fe, Co, and Ni) for CO2 electroreduction to CO. Among them, the Ni@N-C catalyst achieved an excessive CO Faraday efficiency (FECO) (> 90%) on a broad achievable potential window (-0.67 V to -0.97 V vs RHE) in the H-type cell. In the flow cell, the optimized catalyst achieved a FECO of 98% and an industrial-relevant current density of 430 mA cm-2 at -1.07 V vs RHE. This work provides a facile way to fabricate catalysts on a large scale with preeminent performance for industrial CO2 electroreduction to CO.

Summary: We synthesized a carbon nanotubes-en-capsulated Ni nanoparticles catalyst through a facile chemical vapor deposition approach for electrochemical CO2 reduction (ECR). The Ni@N-C catalyst exhibited the highest CO Faraday efficiency (FECO%) of 90% at -0.77 V vs. RHE in the H-type cell. Moreover, it showed a high FECO% of over 93% within the range of -0.37 to -0.77 V vs. RHE in the flow cell. The excellent catalytic performance of Ni@N-C suggests that N-doped carbon nanotubes coated on Ni nanoparticles play a vital role in promoting ECR activity. This work provides insights into the development of a simple and efficient electrocatalyst for ECR.

Summary: This study focused on the semihydrogenation of acetylene in an ethylene-rich stream using two alloyed Pt catalysts PtCu and PtCo. The PtCu catalyst showed higher activity and ethylene yield compared to PtCo due to its higher unoccupied Pt d-orbital density. This indicates that alloying Pt with Cu is more promising for industrial relevant SHA catalyst.

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
