Article Synopsis
  • Serious solvation effects of zinc ions cause major side reactions in aqueous zinc metal batteries, but the impact of anionic solvation structures has not been thoroughly studied.
  • A new multi-component electrolyte called ZGBCP was developed to co-reconstruct both anionic and cationic solvation structures, improving conductivity and stability through a double crosslinking network.
  • With ZGBCP, zinc anodes exhibit extremely low polarization and stable cycling performance, enabling a wide operating temperature range and an impressive cycle life, showcasing its potential for high-performance zinc metal batteries.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examined volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pollution in Jinshan District, Shanghai, showing higher concentrations during polluted days compared to clear days, with mean values of 47.1 ppbv and 59.2 ppbv, respectively.
  • The increase in daytime levels of alkenes was identified as a key factor driving atmospheric photochemistry during these polluted days, influenced by processes like VOC loss and ozone formation potential.
  • Main sources of VOCs were found to be refining, petrochemicals, and oil and gas evaporation, highlighting the need for targeted measures in managing air quality and controlling reactive VOC emissions.
