New Progress in Quantitative Analysis of Calendar Aging in Lithium-Ion Batteries by the Research Team of Professors Yong Yang and Zhengliang Gong

Quantitative elucidation of calendar aging mechanisms is crucial for the development of long-life lithium-ion batteries suitable for large-scale energy storage systems and electric vehicles. In recent years, studies on the calendar aging behavior and mechanisms of lithium-ion batteries under high-temperature storage conditions have generally suggested that elevated temperatures accelerate side reactions,...

An important progress has been made by the research team led by Xianhai Zeng of our college in the field of biomass catalytic conversion

Linear alcohols serve as critical raw materials for the preparation of polymers and synthetic solvents. The conventional production process of 2,5-hexanediol (2,5-HDL) suffers from drawbacks such as complex process flows. The catalytic conversion of bio-based platform molecules represented by 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into linear alcohols has emerged as a promising alternative approach; nevertheless,...

Professor Zhifeng Zheng's Team from the Department of Energy Storage Makes New Progress in Dual-Carbon Sodium-Ion Capacitors

Recently, the team led by Assistant Professor Dechao Wang and Professor Zhifeng Zheng from the Department of Energy Storage of our college has proposed an innovative "Precursor Crosslinking Engineering" strategy. Using a single phenol-furfural resin as the precursor, they successfully synthesized an optimized hard carbon anode and a porous carbon cathode simultaneously by precisely regulating the crosslinking ...

Prof. Shuliang Yang’s Group Achieves Significant Progress in the In Situ Encapsulation of [2]Catenane Molecules

As an emerging class of porous materials, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are capable of accommodating a wide range of guest molecules, thereby enabling diverse applications. Among the various strategies for introducing guests, the in situ encapsulation approach offers unique advantages, as it allows the incorporation of small molecules, organometallic clusters, proteins, and even more complex species ...

Important Research Progress in Ultrafast Graphdiyne Synthesis Achieved by Collaborative Teams Led by Professors Shuliang Yang and Jian-Feng Li

Graphdiyne (GDY), as an emerging two-dimensional carbon allotrope, exhibits tremendous application potential. However, its development has been severely hindered by relatively complex and time-consuming synthetic methods.Recently, the research teams led by Professor Shuliang Yang and Assistant Professor Jia Yu from our college, in collaboration with Professor Jian-Feng Li, have made significant progress ...

Professor Zhifeng Zheng's Team Makes New Progress in High-Energy Hybrid Lithium-Ion/Lithium Metal Batteries

Hybrid lithium-ion/lithium metal batteries (LIB/LMBs) are a promising solution to achieve higher energy density in lithium batteries by using a small amount of carbon anode (carbon anode/cathode < 1) for mixed storage of Li ions and Li metal. They reduce the anode cost of traditional LIBs and avoid the stringent environmental requirements during the fabrication of lithium metal batteries. However, ...
