An aliovalent mixed-metal framework DUT-174 [LiAl(2-methylimidazolate)4]n, isostructural to ZIF-8, was synthesized from lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4) and 2-methylimidazole (2-mImH) through dehydrogenation. Lithium and aluminum cations acting as alternating framework nodes are coordinated tetrahedrally by (2-mIm)-. DUT-174 has a high specific surface area of 1149 m2 g-1 and CO2 uptake of 11.57 mmol g-1 at 195 K.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries hold significant promise due to high energy density, cost-effectiveness, and ecological sustainability, but their practical applications are constrained by suboptimal electrochemical performance and the detrimental shuttle effect. Herein, a porous, sandwich-structured composite was developed to function as a freestanding cathode designed for Li-S batteries without aluminum foil. Porous carbon nanofibers (PCNF) were employed as the conductive matrix for sulfur, with tungsten carbide (WC) being incorporated to furnish abundant active sites for polysulfide adsorption.

Scandium (Sc) can orderly occupy interstitial sites within the Ω phase of aluminum alloys, forming a new phase that significantly enhances the thermal stability of the alloy. However, Sc is relatively expensive and rare. In this work, we employ first-principles calculations to delve into the physical essence interstitial ordering of Sc in enhancing thermal stability at the electronic level, thereby revealing the crucial factors responsible for this improvement.

The reactions of the sterically demanding ferrocenyl lithium dimer (Fc*Li) (Fc* = 2,5-bis(3,5-di--butyl-phenyl)-1-ferrocenyl) with aluminum trihalides (AlCl, AlBr, and AlI) to furnish the corresponding monomeric bis(ferrocenyl)haloalumanes are reported. In the case of the reaction with AlI, an unexpected intramolecular 1,1'-aluminum migration in the ferrocenyl moiety was found to occur. Their monomeric structures with a tri-coordinated aluminum atom show affinitive Al⋯Fe interactions.

Silicon is utilized as a functional material in various fields such as semiconductors, bio-medicine, and solar energy. To prepare Si materials, researchers have proposed methods including carbothermal reduction, hydrothermal reduction, and magnesiothermal reduction, but these strategies often involve high temperatures or unwanted by-products. Herein, we present a low-temperature ionic liquid reduction system to prepare Si nanospheres based on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride-aluminum chloride ([Bmim]Cl-AlCl).

Battery technology has attained a key position as an energy storage technology in decarbonization of energy systems. Lithium-ion batteries have become the dominant technology currently used in consumer appliances, electric vehicles (EVs), and industrial applications. However, lithium-ion batteries are not alike and can have different cathode chemistries which makes their recycling more complex.
