In this article, a novel catalyst, Pt4Ir/ANGr, is introduced composed of PtIr alloy nanoparticles decorated on AlOOH/NGr composite. The AlOOH provides an –OH?rich surface conducive to the facile adsorption and decoration of the PtIr alloy nanoparticles and OHad species spillover from AlOOH to the Pt4Ir active center during AOR, further validating the higher experimental activity obtained in Pt4Ir/ANGr.

In this work, we investigated the benefits of the structural transformation of oxygen incorporated molybdenum sulfide (O-MoS2), that is realized with modified graphene oxide with in-plane surface nanopores (holey graphene oxide/hGO). The unique structure of our cathode material allows for rapid ion transport and efficient charge/discharge processes, resulting in a high discharge capacity.

Zinc anode deterioration in aqueous electrolytes, and Zn dendrite growth is a major concern in the operation of aqueous rechargeable Zn metal batteries (AZMBs). To tackle this the replacement of aqueous electrolytes with a zinc hydrogel polymer electrolyte (ZHPE) is presented in this study. This method involves structural modifications of the ZHPE by phytic acid through an ultraviolet (UV) light-induced photopolymerization process. The high membrane flexibility, high ionic conductivity (0.08 S cm-1), improved zinc corrosion overpotential, and enhanced electrochemical stability value of ~2.0 V vs Zn\|Zn2+ show the great potential of ZHPE as an ideal gel electrolyte for rechargeable zinc metal hydrogel batteries (ZMHBs).

Given the benefits of Al and its limited research on electrocatalysis, we present here the creation of a potential bifunctional ORR and OER electrocatalyst made of Co-encapsulated carbon nanotubes co-existing with Al, N-dual-doped reduced graphene oxide (Al, Co/N-rGCNT). The potential of the developed catalyst could be demonstrated for RZAB with respect to the charging and discharging cycling, validating the use of an economical and environmentally benign catalyst for an emerging energy solution.

In this study, we created an electrocatalyst for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction using PtNi/SiO2 alloy as a feasible carbon-free catalyst for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). One significant problem reducing the fuel cells' lifespan is carbon corrosion. The present catalyst turns out to be electrochemically more active as a potential carbon-free substitute for PEMFC applications because of the electronic level modulations brought about by lattice compression.

The rational design of noble metal-free electrocatalysts holds great promise for cost-effective green hydrogen generation through water electrolysis. In this context, here, we demonstrate the development of a superhydrophilic bifunctional electrocatalyst, that facilitates both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline conditions. This has been achieved through the in-situ growth of hierarchical NiMoO4 @CoMoO4.xH2O nanostructure on nickel foam (NF) via. a two-step hydrothermal synthesis method. NiMoO4@CoMoO4.xH2O/NF facilitates OER and HER at the overpotentials of 180 and 220 mV, respectively, at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 .

Recently, the in situ polymerization process is widely employed as a robust fabrication tool for surpassing the intricacies related to the integration of PE in LPBs. Hence, in this review, we focus on the in situ polymerization processes that employ various polymerization methods (e.g., free-radical polymerization, ionic polymerization, electropolymerization, condensation polymerization, etc.), functional monomers and oligomers (e.g., acrylate, methacrylate, allyl and vinyl ethers, epoxides, etc.), and PE integration strategies for the fabrication of lithium (ion and metal) polymer batteries (LIPBs and LMPBs). Additionally, this review also evaluates the approaches that have been developed until now to implement the in situ processing of LPBs from large-sized pouch cells to flexible-/printable-batteries and even microbatteries.
