The coupling of functionalized inorganic polyoxometalates with polymer electrolytes leads to considerably enhanced mechanical properties and faster ion transport (1.1 × 10 S cm) at room temperature. The assembled Li/Li symmetric cell displays excellent stability in a 3000 h cycling test and a Li/LiFePO cell exhibits superior cycling performance over 250 cycles.

Although dyslipidaemia is a prominet feature, the causal effect of lipid traits on PAP remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the role of lipid traits in PAP and evaluate the potential of lipid-lowering drug targets in PAP.

The primary building block, {PMo}, is a tetravacant Keggin-type phosphomolybdate that has never been observed before. The compound shows a high proton conductivity of 9.

The activation of the Ag acceptors (Ag) and the formation of the Ag aggregations (Ag⁰) in the ZnO matrix were investigated from XRD, Raman scattering, and XPS measurements.
