Chemistry. 2024 May 1:e202400945. doi: 10.1002/chem.202400945. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe performance of lithium-sulfur batteries is compromised by the loss of sulfur as dissolved polysulfides in the electrolyte and consequently the polysulfide redox shutting effect. Accelerating the conversion kinetics of polysulfide intermediates into sulfur or lithium sulfide through electrocatalysis has emerged as a root-cause solution. Co-N-C composite electrocatalyst is commonly used for this purpose. It is illustrated here that how the effectiveness can be improved by modulating the coordination chemistry of Co-N-C catalytic ...

Lithium toxicity presented as parkinsonism and ataxia
Background: Although drug induced movement disorders are well established and common, they are still overlooked and undiagnosed in clinical practice. Lithium, a non-neuroleptic mood stabilizer causes a continuum from simple side effects to reversible or irreversible neurotoxicity. Lithium neurotoxicity can occur following overdose or during maintenance therapy. (Source: Parkinsonism and Related Disorders)

Mitigating Gas Evolution in Electron Beam ‐Induced Gel Polymer Electrolytes Through Bi‐Functional Cross–Linkable Additives
Safe, low-gas-generating electron beam-induced gel polymer electrolyte (E-Gel) is developed using a bifunctional cross-linkable additive (CIA). The strategically designed E-Gel fabrication process offers a new perspective on the acrylate-based cross –linkers as CIAs that can also act as additives to form a stable interface at the electrode interface during the initial charge–discharge process. AbstractThe current high-capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), reliant on flammable liquid electrolytes (LEs) and nickel-rich cathodes, are plagued by safety hazards, especially the risk of hazardous gas release stemming from in...

ChemSusChem. 2024 Apr 30:e202400359. doi: 10.1002/cssc.202400359. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe escalating focus on environmental concerns and the swift advancement of eco-friendly biodegradable batteries raises a pressing demand for enhanced material design in the battery field. The traditional polypropylene (PP) that is monopolistically utilized in the commercial LIBs is hard to recycle. In this work, we prepare a novel water degradable separators via the cross-linking of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and dibasic acid (tartaric acid, TA). Through the integration of non-solvent liquid-phase separation, we successfully produ...
