Abstract
The design and development of high-performance and long-life Pt-free catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is of great important with respect to metal-air batteries and fuel cells. Herein, a new low-cost covalent organic frameworks (COFs)-derived CoNC single-atoms catalyst (SAC) is fabricated and compared with the engineered nanoparticle (NP) counterpart for ORR activity. The ORR performance of the SAC catalyst (CoSA@NC) surpasses the NP counterpart (CoNP-NC) under the same operation condition. CoSA@NC also achieves improved long-term durability and better methanol tolerance compared with the Pt/C. The zinc-air battery assembled by the CoSA@NC cathode delivers a higher power density and energy density than that of commercial Pt/C catalyst. Molecular dynamics (MD) is performed to explain the spontaneous evolution from clusters to single-atom metal configuration and density functional theory (DFT) calculations find that CoSA@NC possesses lower d-band center, resulting in weaker interaction between the surface and the O-containing intermediates. Consequently, the reductive desorption of OH*, the rate-determine step, is further accelerated.

Liu Z, Zhai X, Wei T, Liu Y, Sun Z, Zhang J, Ding H, Xia Y, Zhou M. Metal-Free Electron Donor-Acceptor Pair Enabled Long-Term Stability of Li-CO 2 Battery. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024:e2400619. [PMID: 38593311 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202400619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024]
Abstract
The challenges of Lithium-carbon dioxide (Li-CO2) batteries for ensuring long-term cycling stability arise from the thermodynamically stable and electrically insulating discharge products (e.g., Li2CO3), which primarily rely on their interaction with the active materials. To achieve the optimized intermediates, the bifunctional electron donor-acceptor (D-A) pairs are proposed in cathode design to adjust such interactions in the case of B-O pairs. The inclusion of BC2O sites allows for the optimized redistribution of electrons via p-π conjugation. The as-obtained DO-AB pairs endow the enhanced interactions with Li+, CO2, and various intermediates, accompanied by the adjustable growth mode of Li2CO3. The shift from solvation-mediated mode into surface absorption mode in turn manipulates the morphology and decomposition kinetics of Li2CO3. Therefore, the corresponding Li-CO2 battery got twofold improved in both the capacity and reversibility. The cycling prolongs exceed 1300 h and well operates at a wide temperature range (20-50 °C) and different folding angles (0-180°). Such a strategy of introducing electron donor-acceptor pairs provides a distinct direction to optimize the lifetime of Li-CO2 battery from local structure regulation at the atomic scale, further inspiring in-depth understandings for developing electrochemical energy storage and carbon capture technologies.

Abstract
Nanomedicines are extensively used in cancer therapy. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are crystalline organic porous materials with several benefits for cancer therapy, including porosity, design flexibility, functionalizability, and biocompatibility. This review examines the use of COFs in cancer therapy from the perspective of reticular chemistry and function-oriented materials design. First, the modification sites and functionalization methods of COFs are discussed, followed by their potential as multifunctional nanoplatforms for tumor targeting, imaging, and therapy by integrating functional components. Finally, some challenges in the clinical translation of COFs are presented with the hope of promoting the development of COF-based anticancer nanomedicines and bringing COFs closer to clinical trials.

Abstract
Rechargeable Li-Cl2 battery is a promising high energy density battery system. However, reasonable cycle life could only be achieved under low specific capacities due to the sluggish oxidation of LiCl to Cl2 . Herein, we propose an amine-functionalized covalent organic framework (COF) with catalytic activity, namely COF-NH2 , that significantly decreases the oxidation barrier of LiCl and accelerates the oxidation kinetics of LiCl in Li-Cl2 cell. The resulting Li-Cl2 cell using COF-NH2 (Li-Cl2 @COF-NH2 ) simultaneously exhibits low overpotential, ultrahigh discharge capacity up to 3500 mAh/g and a promoted utilization ratio of deposited LiCl at the first cycle (UR-LiCl) of 81.4 %, which is one of the highest reported values to date. Furthermore, the Li-Cl2 @COF-NH2 cell could be stably cycled for over 200 cycles when operating at a capacity of 2000 mAh/g at -20 °C with a Coulombic efficiency (CE) of ≈100 % and a discharge plateau of 3.5 V. Our superior Li-Cl2 batteries enabled by organocatalyst enlighten an arena towards high-energy storage applications.

Abstract
Lithium-carbon dioxide (Li-CO2 ) battery technology presents a promising opportunity for carbon capture and energy storage. Despite tremendous efforts in Li-CO2 batteries, the complex electrode/electrolyte/CO2 triple-phase interfacial processes remain poorly understood, in particular at the nanoscale. Here, using in situ atomic force microscopy and laser confocal microscopy-differential interference contrast microscopy, we directly observed the CO2 conversion processes in Li-CO2 batteries at the nanoscale, and further revealed a laser-tuned reaction pathway based on the real-time observations. During discharge, a bi-component composite, Li2 CO3 /C, deposits as micron-sized clusters through a 3D progressive growth model, followed by a 3D decomposition pathway during the subsequent recharge. When the cell operates under laser (λ=405 nm) irradiation, densely packed Li2 CO3 /C flakes deposit rapidly during discharge. Upon the recharge, they predominantly decompose at the interfaces of the flake and electrode, detaching themselves from the electrode and causing irreversible capacity degradation. In situ Raman shows that the laser promotes the formation of poorly soluble intermediates, Li2 C2 O4 , which in turn affects growth/decomposition pathways of Li2 CO3 /C and the cell performance. Our findings provide mechanistic insights into interfacial evolution in Li-CO2 batteries and the laser-tuned CO2 conversion reactions, which can inspire strategies of monitoring and controlling the multistep and multiphase interfacial reactions in advanced electrochemical devices.

Abstract
Elaborately designed multifunctional electrocatalysts capable of promoting Li+ and CO2 transport are essential for upgrading the cycling stability and rate capability of Li-CO2 batteries. Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) with open channels and easily functionalized surfaces hold great potential for applications in efficient cathodes of Li-CO2 batteries. Herein, a robust HOFS (HOF-FJU-1) is introduced for the first time as a co-catalyst in the cathode material of Li-CO2 batteries. HOF-FJU-1 with cyano groups located periodically in the pore can induce homogeneous deposition of discharge products and accommodate volumetric expansion of discharge products during cycling. Besides, HOF-FJU-1 enables effective interaction between Ru0 nanoparticles and cyano groups, thus forming efficient and uniform catalytic sites for CRR/CER. Moreover, HOF-FJU-1 with regularly arranged open channels are beneficial for CO2 and Li+ transport, enabling rapid redox kinetic conversion of CO2 . Therefore, the HOF-based Li-CO2 batteries are capable of stable operation at 400 mA g-1 for 1800 h and maintain a low overpotential of 1.96 V even at high current densities up to 5 A g-1 . This work provides valuable guidance for developing multifunctional HOF-based catalysts to upgrade the longevity and rate capability of Li-CO2 batteries.

Abstract
The establishment of facile synthetic routes to engineer covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with fully conjugated structure and excellent stability is highly desired for practical applications in optoelectronics and photocatalysis. Herein, a novel linkage conversion strategy is reported to prepare crystalline thiadiazole-linked COFs via thionation, cyclization, and oxidation of N-acylhydrazole bonds with Lawesson's reagent (LR). The as-prepared thiadiazole-linked COFs not only remain porosity and crystallinity, but enhance its chemical stability. Furthermore, thiadiazole-linked COFs are more favorable to lower exciton binding energy and promote π-electron delocalization over the whole reticular framework than N-acylhydrazone-linked COFs. Notably, the extended π-conjugation structure and decent crystallinity of the resulting TDA-COF are reflected by its higher photocatalytic H2 evolution rate (61.3 mmol g-1 in 5 h) in comparison with that (7.5 mmol g-1 ) of NAH-COF.

Abstract
The Li-CO2 battery has great potential for both CO2 utilization and energy storage, but its practical application is limited by low energy efficiency and short cycle life. Efficient cathode catalysts are needed to address this issue. Herein, this work reports on molecularly dispersed electrocatalysts (MDEs) of nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc) anchored on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the cathode catalyst for Li-CO2 batteries. The dispersed NiPc molecules efficiently catalyze CO2 reduction, while the conductive and porous CNTs networks facilitate CO2 evolution reaction, leading to enhanced discharging and charging performance compared to the NiPc and CNTs mixture. Octa-cyano substitution on NiPc (NiPc-CN) further enhances the interaction between the molecule and CNTs, resulting in better cycling stability. The Li-CO2 battery with the NiPc-CN MDE cathode shows a high discharge voltage of 2.72 V and a small discharging-charging potential gap of 1.4 V, and can work stably for over 120 cycles. The reversibility of the cathode is confirmed by experimental characterizations. This work lays a foundation for the development of molecular catalysts for Li-CO2 battery cathodes.

Abstract
Rechargeable lithium-CO2 (Li-CO2 ) batteries are an attractive energy storage technology that can reduce fossil fuel usage and limit the adverse environmental impact of CO2 emissions. However, the high charge overpotential, unstable cycling, and incomplete understanding of the electrochemical process limit its advancement for practical applications. Herein, we develop a Li-CO2 battery by designing a bimetallic ruthenium-nickel catalyst onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (RuNi/MWCNTs) catalyst as cathode by solvothermal method, which exhibits a lower overpotential of 1.15 V and a discharge capacity of 15,165 mAh g-1 with outstanding coulombic efficiency of 97.4 %. The battery can also operate at high rates and have a stable cycle of more than 80 cycles at a current density of 200 mA g-1 with a fixed 500 mAh g-1 capacity. Furthermore, Mars exploration is made feasible with the Li-CO2 Mars battery composed of the RuNi/MWCNTs as cathode catalyst, which performs very similarly to that of pure CO2 atmosphere. This approach may simplify the process of developing high-performance Li-CO2 batteries to achieve carbon negativity on Earth and for future interplanetary Mars missions.

Abstract
Rechargeable lithium batteries are one of the most appropriate energy storage systems in our electrified society, as virtually all portable electronic devices and electric vehicles today rely on the chemical energy stored in them. However, sub-zero Celsius operation, especially below -20 °C, remains a huge challenge for lithium batteries and greatly limits their application in extreme environments. Slow Li+ diffusion and charge transfer kinetics have been identified as two main origins of the poor performance of RLBs under low-temperature conditions, both strongly associated with the liquid electrolyte that governs bulk and interfacial ion transport. In this review, we first analyze the low-temperature kinetic behavior and failure mechanism of lithium batteries from an electrolyte standpoint. We next trace the history of low-temperature electrolytes in the past 40 years (1983-2022), followed by a comprehensive summary of the research progress as well as introducing the state-of-the-art characterization and computational methods for revealing their underlying mechanisms. Finally, we provide some perspectives on future research of low-temperature electrolytes with particular emphasis on mechanism analysis and practical application.

Abstract
This review article discusses the recent advances in rechargeable metal-CO2 batteries (MCBs), which include the Li, Na, K, Mg, and Al-based rechargeable CO2 batteries, mainly with nonaqueous electrolytes. MCBs capture CO2 during discharge by the CO2 reduction reaction and release it during charging by the CO2 evolution reaction. MCBs are recognized as one of the most sophisticated artificial modes for CO2 fixation by electrical energy generation. However, extensive research and substantial developments are required before MCBs appear as reliable, sustainable, and safe energy storage systems. The rechargeable MCBs suffer from the hindrances like huge charging-discharging overpotential and poor cyclability due to the incomplete decomposition and piling of the insulating and chemically stable compounds, mainly carbonates. Efficient cathode catalysts and a suitable architectural design of the cathode catalysts are essential to address this issue. Besides, electrolytes also play a vital role in safety, ionic transportation, stable solid-electrolyte interphase formation, gas dissolution, leakage, corrosion, operational voltage window, etc. The highly electrochemically active metals like Li, Na, and K anodes severely suffer from parasitic reactions and dendrite formation. Recent research works on the aforementioned secondary MCBs have been categorically reviewed here, portraying the latest findings on the key aspects governing secondary MCB performances.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as a new class of cathode materials for energy storage in recent years. However, they are limited to two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) framework structures. Herein, this work reports designed synthesis of a redox-active one-dimensional (1D) COF and its composites with 1D carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via in situ growth. Used as cathode materials for Li-ion batteries, the 1D COF@CNT composites with unique dendritic core-shell structure can provide abundant and easily accessible redox-active sites, which contribute to improve diffusion rate of lithium ions and the corresponding specific capacity. This synergistic structural design enables excellent electrochemical performance of the cathodes, giving rise to 95% utilization of redox-active sites, high rate capability (81% capacity retention at 10 C), and long cycling stability (86% retention after 600 cycles at 5 C). As the first example to explore the application of 1D COFs in the field of energy storage, this study demonstrates the great potential of this novel type of linear crystalline porous polymers in battery technologies.

Abstract
Lithium-air (Li-air) batteries stand out among the post-Li-ion batteries due to their high energy density, which has rapidly progressed in the past years. Regarding the fundamental mechanism of Li-air batteries that discharge products produced and decomposed during charging and recharging progress, the reversibility of products closely affects the battery performance. Along with the upsurge of the mainstream discharge products lithium peroxide, with devoted efforts to screening electrolytes, constructing high-efficiency cathodes, and optimizing anodes, much progress is made in the fundamental understanding and performance. However, the limited advancement is insufficient. In this case, the investigations of other discharge products, including lithium hydroxide, lithium superoxide, lithium oxide, and lithium carbonate, emerge and bring breakthroughs for the Li-air battery technologies. To deepen the understanding of the electrochemical reactions and conversions of discharge products in the battery, recent advances in the various discharge products, mainly focusing on the growth and decomposition mechanisms and the determining factors are systematically reviewed. The perspectives for Li-air batteries on the fundamental development of discharge products and future applications are also provided.

Abstract
Effective harvest of electrochemical energy from insulating compounds serves as the key to unlocking the potential capacity from many materials that otherwise could not be exploited for energy storage. Herein, an effective strategy is proposed by employing LiCoO2, a widely commercialized positive electrode material in Li-ion batteries, as an efficient redox mediator to catalyze the decomposition of Na2CO3 via an intercalating mechanism. Differing from traditional redox mediation processes where reactions occur on the limited surface sites of catalysts, the electrochemically delithiated Li1-xCoO2 forms NayLi1-xCoO2 crystals, which act as a cation intercalating catalyzer that directs Na+ insertion-extraction and activates the reaction of Na2CO3 with carbon. Through altering the route of the mass transport process, such redox centers are delocalized throughout the bulk of LiCoO2, which ensures maximum active reaction sites. The decomposition of Na2CO3 thus accelerated significantly reduces the charging overpotential in Na-CO2 batteries; meanwhile, Na compensation can also be achieved for various Na-deficient cathode materials. Such a surface-induced catalyzing mechanism for conversion-type reactions, realized via cation intercalation chemistry, expands the boundary for material discovery and makes those conventionally unfeasible a rich source to explore for efficient utilization of chemical energy.

Abstract
Non-aqueous Li-air batteries, despite their high energy density and low cost, have not been deployed practically due to their instability in ambient air, where moisture causes parasitic reactions and shortens their life drastically. Here, we demonstrate the rational design of nanoporous covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as effective gas diffusion layers (GDLs) to address this constraint. The COF GDLs, with a tailor-made pore size of ≈1.4 nm and superhydrophobicity, can limit the intrusion of organic electrolytes and moisture into the gas diffusion channels, enabling high capacity, fast kinetics, and excellent stability of the Li-air batteries. Moreover, we achieve multi-atmosphere Li-air batteries, which can stably cycle under open ambient air (relative humidity up to 95 %) and even in various atmospheres with looping oxygen, humid air, and carbon dioxide. The design principles of our COF GDLs can be universally applied in energy storage and electrochemical systems using organic electrolytes.

Abstract
Uncovering how hydrogen transfers and what factors control hydrogen conductivity on solid surface is essential for enhancing catalytic performance of H-involving reactions, which is however hampered due to the structural complexity of powder catalysts, in particular, for oxide catalysts. Here, we construct stripe-like MnO(001) and grid-like Mn3O4(001) monolayers on Pt(111) substrate and investigate hydrogen spillover atop. Atomic-scale visualization demonstrates that hydrogen species from Pt diffuse unidirectionally along the stripes on MnO(001), whereas it exhibits an isotropic pathway on Mn3O4(001). Dynamic surface imaging in H2 atmosphere reveals that hydrogen diffuses 4 times more rapidly on MnO than the case on Mn3O4, which is promoted by one-dimension surface-lattice-confinement effect. Theoretical calculations indicate that a uniform and medium O-O distance favors hydrogen diffusion while low-coordinate surface O atom inhibits it. Our work illustrates the surface-lattice-confinement effect of oxide catalysts on hydrogen spillover and provides a promising route to improve the hydrogen spillover efficiency.

Abstract
High loading capacity and smart release of inhibitors are the first and foremost characteristics of nanocontainers, which play a pivotal role in metal active corrosion protection. The present work explores the development of novel protective nanocontainers based on recently emerged covalent organic frameworks (COFs). These highly porous frameworks with large surface area, outstanding thermomechanical properties, low density, and ease of functionalization are used as nanocontainers. On the other hand, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a state-of-the-art 2D layered compound with a sheetlike structure, was utilized thanks to its excellent barrier properties. However, these lamellar structures suffer a high agglomeration tendency in polymeric matrices. Therefore, we developed a novel hybrid nanocontainer, inspired by natural nacre, by an in situ growth of COF on MoS2 to improve the stability and provide a high inhibitor loading capacity. The porous and nitrogen-rich structure of COF made it a good carrier to adsorb europium cations as inorganic inhibitors and release them on demand by pH changes to suppress the electrochemical reactions. The as-synthesized nanoplatforms were used as pH-responsive fillers in the epoxy resin. The nanocomposite coatings showed almost 50 kΩ cm2 total resistance and high impedance values (1011 Ω cm2) even after 77 days of immersion. Moreover, salt spray analysis depicted the smallest amount of rust and corrosion product after 31 days in the filled nanocomposite coating. Cathodic delamination and pull-off outcomes denoted that the filled coatings with the as-synthesized nanofiller showed the smallest cathodic delamination radius (3.41 mm) and lowest adhesion loss (24%) compared to the neat epoxy (7.55 mm and 46.7%). As such, the highly porous modified MoS2 nanosheets are considered promising alternatives in a wide range of applications with anticorrosion properties.

However, its further development is limited by incomplete product decomposition resulting in poor cycling and rate performance. In this work, Cu-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (Cu-TCPP) nanosheets are prepared through the solvothermal method successfully. An efficient Li-CO2 battery with Cu-TCPP as catalyst achieves a high discharge capacity of 20393 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g-1 , a long-life cycle of 123 at 500 mA g-1 , and a lower overpotential of 1.8 V at 2000 mA g-1 . Density functional theory calculation reveals that Cu-TCPP has higher adsorption energy of CO2 and Li2 CO3 compared with TCPP, and a large number of electrons gather near the Cu-N4 active sites in Cu-TCPP. Therefore, the excellent CO2 capture ability of the porphyrin ligand and the synergic catalytic effect of Cu atom in Cu-TCPP promote the thermodynamics and kinetics of CO2 reduction and evolution processes.

Abstract
Rechargeable Li-CO2 batteries are an innovative energy storage technology with broad application prospects owing to their superb energy density and ability to capture the greenhouse gas CO2. However, they are still suffering from severe challenges in the formation and decomposition of electrochemically sluggish Li2CO3 discharge products, resulting in poor battery performance. Development of an efficient cathodic electrocatalyst has the potential to address these issues by catalytically boosting the conversion of Li2CO3. Herein, we have designed a Ru-Cu nanoalloy decorated porous carbon (Ru-Cu@NPC) material derived from an anion-exchanged cationic MOF, and it can serve as an efficient cathode electrocatalyst for Li-CO2 batteries. Benefitting from the uniform distribution of ultrafine Ru-Cu nanoalloys with high catalytic performance, Ru-Cu@NPC displays excellent CO2 reduction and evolution activities. Impressively, the Li-CO2 battery with the Ru-Cu@NPC catalyst exhibits a remarkably low potential gap of 0.93 V at 100 mA g-1 and a stable discharge/charge cycling performance of more than 400 cycles at a high current density of 400 mA g-1 within a limiting capacity of 1000 mA h g-1. The study provides an opportunity for the research of cationic MOF derived bimetallic catalysts in the Li-CO2 battery field.

Abstract
At present, photoassisted Li-air batteries are considered to be an effective approach to overcome the sluggish reaction kinetics of the Li-air batteries. And, the organic liquid electrolyte is generally adopted by the current conventional photoassisted Li-air batteries. However, the superior catalytic activity of photoassisted cathode would in turn fasten the degradation of the organic liquid electrolyte, leading to limited battery cycling life. Herein, we tame the above limitation of the traditional liquid electrolyte system for Li-CO2 batteries by constructing a photoassisted all-solid-state Li-CO2 battery with an integrated bilayer Au@TiO2/Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3 (LAGP)/LAGP (ATLL) framework, which can essentially improve battery stability. Taking advantage of photoelectric and photothermal effects, the Au@TiO2/LAGP layer enables the acceleration of the slow kinetics of the carbon dioxide reduction reaction and evolution reaction processes. The LAGP layer could resolve the problem of liquid electrolyte decomposition under illumination. The integrated double-layer LAGP framework endows the direct transportation of heat and Li+ in the entire system. The photoassisted all-solid-state Li-CO2 battery achieves an ultralow polarization of 0.25 V with illumination, as well as a high round-trip efficiency of 92.4%. Even at an extremely low temperature of -73 °C, the battery can still deliver a small polarization of 0.6 V by converting solar energy into heat to achieve self-heating. This study is not limited to the Li-air batteries but can also be applied to other battery systems, constituting a significant step toward the practical application of all-solid-state photoassisted Li-air batteries.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of organic crystalline porous materials discovered in the early 21st century that have become an attractive class of emerging materials due to their high crystallinity, intrinsic porosity, structural regularity, diverse functionality, design flexibility, and outstanding stability. However, many chemical and physical properties strongly depend on the presence of metal ions in materials for advanced applications, but metal-free COFs do not have these properties and are therefore excluded from such applications. Metalated COFs formed by combining COFs with metal ions, while retaining the advantages of COFs, have additional intriguing properties and applications, and have attracted considerable attention over the past decade. This review presents all aspects of metalated COFs, from synthetic strategies to various applications, in the hope of promoting the continued development of this young field.

Abstract
In recent years, the combustion of fossil fuels leads to the release of a large amount of CO2 gas, which induces the greenhouse effect and the energy crisis. To solve these problems, researchers have turned their focus to a novel Li-CO2 battery (LCB). LCB has received much attention because of its high theoretical energy density and reversible CO2 reduction/evolution process. So far, the emerging LCB still faces many challenges derived from the slow reaction kinetics of discharge products. In this review, the latest status and progress of LCB, especially the influence of the structure design of cathode catalysts on the battery performance, are systematically elaborated. This review summarizes in detail the existing issues and possible solutions of LCB, which is of high research value for further promoting the development of Li-Air battery.

Abstract
Metal–air batteries are considered the research, development, and application direction of electrochemical devices in the future because of their high theoretical energy density. Among them, lithium–carbon dioxide (Li–CO2) batteries can capture, fix, and transform the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide while storing energy efficiently, which is an effective technique to achieve “carbon neutrality”. However, the current research on this battery system is still in the initial stage, the selection of key materials such as electrodes and electrolytes still need to be optimized, and the actual reaction path needs to be studied. Carbon tube-based composites have been widely used in this energy storage system due to their excellent electrical conductivity and ability to construct unique spatial structures containing various catalyst loads. In this review, the basic principle of Li–CO2 batteries and the research progress of carbon tube-based composite cathode materials were introduced, the preparation and evaluation strategies together with the existing problems were described, and the future development direction of carbon tube-based materials in Li–CO2 batteries was proposed.

Abstract
Solid-state electrolytes with high Li+ conductivity, flexibility, durability, and stability offer an attractive solution to enhance safety and energy density. However, meeting these stringent requirements poses challenges to the existing solid polymeric or ceramic electrolytes. Here, an electrolyte-mediated single-Li+ -conductive covalent organic framework (COF) is presented, which represents a new category of quality solid-state Li+ conductors. In situ solidification of a tailored liquid electrolyte boosts the charge-carrier concentration in the COF channels, decouples Li+ cations from both COF walls and molecular chains, and eliminates defects by crystal soldering. Such an altered microenvironment activates the motion of Li+ ions in a directional manner, which leads to an increase in Li+ conductivity by 100 times with a transference number of 0.85 achieved at room temperature. Moreover, the electrolyte conversion cements the ultrathin COF membrane with fortified mechanical toughness. With the COF membrane, foldable solid-state pouch cells are demonstrated.

Abstract
As hot topics in the chemical conversion of CO2 , the photo-/electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and use of CO2 as a supporter for energy storage have shown great potential for the utilization of CO2 . However, many obstacles still exist on the road to realizing highly efficient chemical CO2 conversion, such as inefficient uptake/activation of CO2 and mass transport in catalysts. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a kind of porous material, have been widely explored as catalysts for the chemical conversion of CO2 owing to their unique features. In particular, COF-based functional materials containing diverse active sites (such as single metal sites, metal nanoparticles, and metal oxides) offer great potential for realizing CO2 conversion and energy storage. This Minireview discusses recent breakthroughs in the basic knowledge, mechanisms, and pathways of chemical CO2 conversion strategies that use COF-based functional catalysts. In addition, the challenges and prospects of COF-based functional catalysts for the efficient utilization of CO2 are also introduced.

Abstract
The sensitivity of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) to pore collapse during activation processes is generally termed activation stability, and activation stability is important for achieving and maintaining COF crystallinity and porosity which are relevant to a variety of applications. However, current understanding of COF stability during activation is insufficient, and prior studies have focused primarily on thermal stability or on the activation stability of other porous materials, such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). In this work, we demonstrate and implement a versatile experimental approach to quantify activation stability of COFs and use this to establish a number of relationships between their pore size, the type of pore substituents, pore architecture, and structural robustness. Additionally, density functional theory calculations reveal the impact on both inter-and intra-layer interactions, which govern activation stability, and we demonstrate that activation stability can be systematically tuned using a multivariate synthesis approach involving mixtures of functionalized and unfunctionalized COF building blocks. Our findings provide novel fundamental insights into the activation stability of COFs and offer guidance for the design of more robust COFs. We establish relationships between COF pore size, the type of pore substituent, pore architecture, and structural robustness and demonstrate that activation stability can be systematically tuned using a multivariate synthesis approach.![]()

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2021; 61:e202115655. [PMID: 34962043 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202115655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are regarded as new platforms for solar-to-chemical energy conversion due to their tailor-made functions and pre-designable structures. Their intrinsic reversibility and high polarization of organic linkages inevitably result in poor chemical stability and weak optoelectronic properties. Herein, one N -acylhydrazone-linked COF (H-COF) was converted into stable and π-conjugated oxadiazole-linked COF via post-oxidative cyclization. Both chemical stability and π-electron delocalization throughout the reticular framework are significantly improved, leading to high hydrogen evolution amount of 13075 μmol g -1 in 5 h upon visible-light irradiation, which is over four times higher than that of H-COF. This work provides a facile protocol for the fabrication of p-conjugated COFs and the modulation of photophysical properties for photocatalytic application.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of porous crystalline materials whose facile preparation, functionality, and modularity have led to their becoming powerful platforms for the development of molecular devices in many fields of (bio)engineering, such as energy storage, environmental remediation, drug delivery, and catalysis. In particular, ionic COFs (iCOFs) are highly useful for constructing energy devices, as their ionic functional groups can transport ions efficiently, and the nonlabile and highly ordered all-covalent pore structures of their backbones provide ideal pathways for long-term ionic transport under harsh electrochemical conditions. Here, current research progress on the use of iCOFs for energy devices, specifically lithium-based batteries and fuel cells, is reviewed in terms of iCOF backbone-design strategies, synthetic approaches, properties, engineering techniques, and applications. iCOFs are categorized as anionic COFs or cationic COFs, and how each of these types of iCOFs transport lithium ions, protons, or hydroxides is illustrated. Finally, the current challenges to and future opportunities for the utilization of iCOFs in energy devices are described. This review will therefore serve as a useful reference on state-of-the-art iCOF design and application strategies focusing on energy devices.

Abstract
An effective Ru/CNT electrocatalyst plays a crucial role in solid-state lithium-carbon dioxide batteries. In the present article, ruthenium metal decorated on a multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is introduced as a cathode for the lithium-carbon dioxide batteries with Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3 solid-state electrolyte. The Ru/CNT cathode exhibits a large surface area, maximum discharge capacity, excellent reversibility, and long cycle life with low overpotential. The electrocatalyst achieves improved electrocatalytic performance for the carbon dioxide reduction reaction and carbon dioxide evolution reaction, which are related to the available active sites. Using the Ru/CNT cathode, the solid-state lithium-carbon dioxide battery exhibits a maximum discharge capacity of 4541 mA h g-1 and 45 cycles of battery life with a small voltage gap of 1.24 V compared to the CNT cathode (maximum discharge capacity of 1828 mA h g-1, 25 cycles, and 1.64 V as voltage gap) at a current supply of 100 mA g-1 with a cutoff capacity of 500 mA h g-1. Solid-state lithium-carbon dioxide batteries have shown promising potential applications for future energy storage.

Abstract
Lithium (Li)-metal anodes are of great promise for next-generation batteries due to their high theoretical capacity and low redox potential. However, Li-dendrite growth during cycling imposes a tremendous safety concern on the practical application of Li-metal anodes. Herein, an effective approach to suppress Li-dendrite growth by coating a polypropylene (PP) separator with a thin layer of ultrastrong diamond-like carbon (DLC) is reported. Theoretical calculations indicate that the DLC coating layer undergoes in situ chemical lithiation once assembled with the lithium-metal anode, transforming the DLC/PP separator into an excellent 3D Li-ion conductor. This in situ lithiated DLC/PP separator can not only mechanically suppress Li-dendrite growth by its intrinsically high modulus (≈100 GPa), but also uniformly redistributes Li ions to render dendrite-free lithium deposition. The twofold effects of the DLC/PP separator result in stable cycling of lithium plating/stripping (over 4500 h) at a high current density of 3 mA cm-2 . Remarkably, this approach enables more than 1000 stable cycles at 5 C with a capacity retention of ≈71% in a Li || LiFePO4 coin cell and more than 200 stable cycles at 0.2 C in a Li || LiNi0.5 Co0.3 Mn0.2 O2 pouch cell with cathode mass loading of ≈9 mg cm-2 .

Abstract
Electrochemical carbon dioxide conversion at ambient temperature is an efficient route to synchronously provide a continuous power supply and produce useful chemicals such as carbonates. Rigid catalysts with rational morphological and structural design are used to overcome the sluggish reaction kinetics and contribute to a better cycle life in Li-CO2 batteries. In this report, a two-dimensional Ti3C2Tx MXene/carbon heterostructure assembled parallel-aligned tubular architecture was delicately synthesized through a self-sacrificial templating method and delivered an ultralow overpotential of 1.38 V at 0.2 A·g-1. The heterostructure that inherited the high catalytic performance of Ti3C2Tx MXene and the outstanding stability of carbon material promoted the adsorption of CO2 and accelerated the decomposition of lithium carbonate, which was proved by in situ and ex situ characterizations and density functional theory calculations. The tubular architecture with large surface area was demonstrated to provide a high durability for long cycle life and ensure good contacts among gas, electrolyte, and electrode.

Abstract
Nano polymorphism (NPM), as an emerging research area in the field of energy storage, and rechargeable batteries, have attracted much attention recently. In this review, the recent progress on the composition and formation of polymorphs, and the evolution processes of different redox electrodes in rechargeable metal-ion, metal-air, and metal-sulfur batteries are highlighted. First, NPM and its significance for rechargeable batteries are discussed. Subsequently, the current NPM modulation strategies of different types of representative electrodes for their corresponding rechargeable battery applications are summarized. The goal is to demonstrate how NPM could tune the intrinsic material properties, and hence, improve their electrochemical activities for each battery type. It is expected that the analysis of polymorphism and electrochemical properties of materials could help identify some "processing-structure-properties" relationships for material design and performance enhancement. Lastly, the current research challenges and potential research directions are discussed to offer guidance and perspectives for future research on NPM engineering.

Abstract
The sluggish kinetics and unclear mechanism have significantly hindered the development of Li-CO2 batteries. Here, a Li-CO2 battery cathode catalyst based on a porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (TTCOF-Mn) with single metal sites is reported to reveal intrinsic catalytic sites of aprotic CO2 conversion from the molecular level. The battery with TTCOF-Mn exhibits a low overpotential of 1.07 V at 100 mA/g as well as excellent stability at 300 mA/g, which is one of the best Li-CO2 battery cathode catalysts to date. The unique features of TTCOF-Mn including uniform single-Mn(II)-sites, fast Li+ transfer pathways, and high electron transfer efficiency contribute to effective CO2 reduction and Li2CO3 decomposition in the Li-CO2 system. Density functional theory calculations reveal that different metalloporphyrin sites lead to different reaction pathways. The single-Mn(II) sites in TTCOF-Mn can activate CO2 and achieve an efficient four-electron CO2 conversion pathway. It is the first example to reveal the catalytic active sites and clear reaction pathways in aprotic Li-CO2 batteries.

Abstract
Rechargeable zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) have received significant attention from the scientific community as an alternative to lithium ion batteries (LIBs) for large-scale energy storage systems owing to their high safety and low cost. However, the lack of a suitable cathode material limits their practical implementation. By using density functional theory (DFT)-based computations, we have herein investigated the electronic structure of a very recently synthesized phenanthroline-based covalent organic framework (PACOF) to lend support for its applicability as a promising cathode material for ZIBs. We have analyzed the diffusion barriers, open-circuit voltages (OCVs), and storage capacity of this COF. Thereafter, inspired by some very recent experimental research works, we have predicted a new framework based on quinone and phenanthroline (QPACOF), which is found to exhibit better electrochemical performance as a cathode material for ZIBs compared with PACOF. Our predicted framework (QPACOF) exhibits almost twice the storage capacity shown by PACOF. Moreover, the OCVs of QPACOF are higher than that of PACOF, ensuring a larger cell voltage for QPACOF. Finally, we have proposed a possible synthetic route to experimentally synthesize our predicted model system (QPACOF).

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are an emerging class of crystalline porous polymers with tailorable compositions, porosities, functionalities, and intrinsic chemical stability. The incorporation of electroactive moieties in the structure transforms COFs into electroactive materials with great potential for energy-related applications. Herein, the recent advances in the design and use of electroactive COFs as capacitors, batteries, conductors, fuel cells, water-splitting, and electrocatalysis are addressed. Their remarkable performance is discussed and compared with other porous materials; hence, perspectives in the development of electroactive COFs are presented.

Abstract
Although polymers have been studied for well over a century, there are few examples of covalently linked polymer crystals synthesised directly from solution. One-dimensional (1D) covalent polymers that are packed into a framework structure can be viewed as a 1D covalent organic framework (COF), but making a single crystal of this has been elusive. Herein, by combining labile metal coordination and dynamic covalent chemistry, we discover a strategy to synthesise single-crystal metallo-COFs under solvothermal conditions. The single-crystal structure is rigorously solved using single-crystal electron diffraction technique. The non-centrosymmetric metallo-COF allows second harmonic generation. Due to the presence of syntactic pendant amine groups along the polymer chains, the metallopolymer crystal can be further cross-linked into a crystalline woven network. Although polymers have been studied for well over a century, there are few examples of covalently linked polymer crystals synthesized directly from solution. Here, the authors demonstrate a strategy to synthesize single crystalline 1D metallo-covalent organic frameworks by combining dynamic covalent chemistry and metal-ligand coordination.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks are an emerging class of porous crystalline organic materials that can be designed and synthesized from the bottom up. Despite progress made in synthesizing COFs of diverse topologies, the synthesis methods are often tedious and unscalable, hampering practical applications. Herein, we demonstrate a scalable, robust method of producing highly crystalline acylhydrazone two-dimensional (2D) COFs with diversified structures (six examples) under open and stirred conditions, with growth typically completed in only 30 min. Our strategy involves selecting molecular building blocks that have bond dipole moments with spatial orientations that favor antiparallel stacking and whose structure allows the restriction of intramolecular bond rotation (RIR) via intra- and interlayer hydrogen bonding. This method is widely applicable for hydrazide linkers containing various side-chain functionalities and topicities. By this strategy, the gram-scale synthesis of two highly crystalline COFs (up to 1.4 g yield) was obtained in a one-pot reaction within 30 min.
