One of the possible solutions for the transition of the actual energetic model is the use of thermal energy storage technologies. Among them, thermochemical energy storage based on redox reactions involving metal oxides is very promising due to its high energy density. This paper deals with the development of the kinetic study based on data extracted from the thermogravimetric analysis of a cobalt-nickel mixed oxide (CoNiO) without and with the addition of SiO particles to improve the cyclability. The results show that in the reduction reaction the activation energy is not affected by the addition of SiO particles while in the oxidation reaction an increase in the activation energy is observed. The theoretical models fitting with the experimental data are different for each material in the reduction reaction. The mixed oxide is controlled by a nucleation and growth mechanism for conversion ratios higher than 0.5, while the added material is controlled by diffusion mechanisms. In the oxidation reaction, the two materials are controlled by a nucleation and growth mechanism for conversion ratios higher than 0.5.

ConspectusCovalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are a novel class of nitrogen-rich conjugated porous organic materials constructed by robust and functional triazine linkages, which possess unique structures and excellent physicochemical properties. They have demonstrated broad application prospects in gas/molecular adsorption and separation, catalysis, energy conversion and storage, etc. In particular, crystalline CTFs with well-defined periodic molecular network structures and regular pore channels can maximize the utilization of the features of CTFs and promote a deep understanding of the structure-property relationship.

Physisorbents are poised to address global challenges such as CO capture, mitigation of water scarcity and energy-efficient commodity gas storage and separation. Rigid physisorbents, those adsorbents that retain their structures upon gas or vapour exposure, are well studied in this context. Conversely, cooperatively flexible physisorbents undergo long-range structural transformations stimulated by guest exposure.

Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) as cathode material for sodium-ion batteries have attracted widespread attention due to their affordability, simple synthesis, and high theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, the oxidation of Fe and sodium loss lead to poor electrochemical properties which restrict the practical use of PBAs. Herein, a simple coprecipitation approach based on sodium salt-reduction-assisted synthesis was proposed to construct high-sodium PBAs.

In the realm of zinc-air batteries, high bifunctional catalytic efficacy is intimately tied to the evaluation of catalysts. Consequently, the pursuit of proficient bifunctional catalysts that can efficiently catalyze both the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) remains a paramount objective in this research area. In this study, the spiny cobalt tetroxide (CoO) encapsulated hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) are constructed by anchoring CoO onto HCS via hydrothermal or annealing treatment.
