This study demonstrates that coating polyethylene separators with hydroxyl-containing polyimide (HPI) microspheres via electrospraying significantly enhances thermal stability, electrolyte wettability, and electrochemical performance, with the 8 wt% HPI-coated separator achieving optimal lithium-ion transference and cycling stability.
This study demonstrates that selectively disrupting intramolecular hydrogen bonds in a redox-active layered metal-organic framework triggers proton-coupled charge transfer, thereby inducing a chemically controlled magnetic phase transition from paramagnetism to antiferromagnetism.
This study demonstrates that microalloying SAC305 lead-free solder with an optimal 0.2 wt.% cerium significantly refines its microstructure and enhances mechanical properties, including tensile strength, toughness, and hardness, while maintaining thermal stability compatible with conventional reflow soldering.
This study presents a poly(ionic liquid)-based ionogel that utilizes temperature-induced polymer network collapse to reversibly switch adhesion strength by approximately 60-fold, enabling versatile applications in robotic systems capable of climbing diverse vertical surfaces and carrying payloads exceeding their own weight.
This study systematically evaluates the convergence of atomic Ehrenfest forces calculated via pair density and stress tensor methods across various bonding types, revealing that the pair density approach is highly sensitive to basis-set size—potentially yielding qualitatively incorrect directions for ionic systems with small bases—while exhibiting weak dependence on the level of theory, a behavior that parallels Hellmann-Feynman forces due to their shared electron-nuclear origin.
This paper argues that weight-average molecular weight (Mw) and polydispersity metrics are artificial mathematical constructs that misrepresent the symmetric, thermodynamically balanced nature of polymer distributions, proposing instead that Number-Average Molecular Weight (Mn) alone should serve as the sole determinant for characterizing mechanical and rheological properties.
This study presents an interpretable machine learning framework using a Random Forest Regressor and Logistic Regression classifier on 2,672 multi-component alloy systems to accurately predict mechanical and thermal properties while identifying Vanadium, Iron, Tungsten, and Carbon as key compositional drivers, thereby enabling scalable and data-driven materials discovery.
This study employs a 2D-NLDFT heterogeneous surface model to demonstrate that adsorption in microporous carbons is governed by pore-domain-specific interactions and molecular polarity, revealing that while supermicropores (0.7–1.5 nm) dominate uptake, the adsorption mechanisms for polar versus non-polar molecules are distinctively controlled by surface heterogeneity and steric compatibility, respectively.
This study reports the development of a 2D flexible IrO2 crystal, engineered via Ba-atom doping to overcome structural rigidity, which achieves record-breaking performance, stability, and cost-efficiency in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis, surpassing US Department of Energy targets.
This study demonstrates that a Pt/Al2O3 catalyst effectively promotes the transhydrogenation of pentane with 1-hexyne and 1,5-hexadiene to enhance conversions and alkene yields at moderate temperatures, whereas the reaction with 2,4-hexadiene is thermodynamically unfavorable due to conjugation, though other reactions like alkylation and isomerization still occur.
