The high energy/power lithium-ion battery using LiNiCoMnO (NCM523 HEP LIB) has an excellent trade-off between specific capacity, cost, and stable thermal characteristics. However, it still brings a massive challenge for power improvement under low temperatures. Deeply understanding the electrode interface reaction mechanism is crucial to solving this problem. This work studies the impedance spectrum characteristics of commercial symmetric batteries under different states of charge (SOCs) and temperatures. The changing tendencies of the Li diffusion resistance and charge transfer resistance with temperature and SOC are explored. Moreover, one quantitative parameter, § ≡ /, is introduced to identify the boundary conditions of the rate control step inside the porous electrode. This work points out the direction to design and improve performance for commercial HEP LIB with common temperature and charging range of users.

The rise of wearable electronics demands flexible energy storage solutions like flexible fiber energy storage devices (FESDs), known for their flexibility and portability. However, it remains difficult for existing fabrication methods (typically, finite-coating, thermal-drawing, and solution-extrusion) to simultaneously achieve desirable electrochemical performances and fast production of FESDs. Here, a new scalable coating-extrusion method is developed, utilizing a novel extruded spinneret with tapered apertures to create dual pressure zones.

Urea-contaminated wastewater requires extensive energy for proper treatment before safe discharge to the surroundings. Direct urea fuel cells (DUFCs) could be utilized efficiently to treat urea-polluted water and generate electricity. The precious/expensive catalyst utilized at the electrodes is one of the main significant challenges to DUFC commercialization.

The Arctic plays a crucial role in the Earth's climate system. However, the unique geography and climate of the Polar Regions present significant challenges for anti-icing/de-icing and clean water production in the Polar Regions, and there is an urgent need for innovative materials to help personnel and instrumentation address these issues. In this work, a composite structure with both micro- and nano-rough surfaces, excellent vapour escape channels and superhydrophobic properties is developed with the design concept of an anthill delicate cross-scale multi-stacked void structure.

Multi-principal element alloys (MPEA) demonstrate exceptional stability during rapid solidification, making them ideal candidates for additive manufacturing and other high-design-flexibility techniques. Unexpectedly, MPEA failure often mimics that of conventional metals, with strain localization along phase or grain boundaries leading to typical crack initiation. Most strategies aim at reducing strain localization either suppress the formation of high-energy sites or dissipate energy at crack tips to enhance toughness, rarely achieving a synergy of both.

Rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries have received considerable attention in energy storage systems owing to their merits of high safety, low cost, and excellent rate performance. However, the unsatisfactory areal energy density and poor cycling performance hinder their practical applications. Herein, the VO·6HO (VOH) nanosheet arrays and Zn nanoflake arrays growing on the 3D-printed reduced graphene oxide/carbon nanotubes (3DP-rGO/CNTs) microlattices employing the electrodeposition technique, and further serve as the cathode and anode for 3D-printed aqueous Zn-VOH battery, respectively.
