Arylamide-Ligated Scandium Bis(alkyl) Complexes in the Ring-Opening Polymerization of Trimethylene Carbonate: Comparing the Reactivity of Mono- Versus Dinuclear Complexes

Abstract Compared with mononuclear catalysts, dinuclear catalysts often exhibit synergistic effects between their two metal centers, offering unique advantages in enhancing catalytic performance. In this work, an alkyl elimination strategy was employed to synthesize novel arylami...

Multi-objective and cross-scale inverse design of temperature-control materials via physics-constrained machine learning

Abstract Temperature-control materials, notably composite phase-change materials (CPCMs), show great potential for the thermal management of next-generation power electronics. However, the synergistic optimization of multiple performance metrics still relies heavily on Edisonian...

Tailoring Water-Shielding Electric Double Layer and Hydrophobic Solid Electrolyte Interphase for Parasitic Reaction-Free Zinc Metal Anode

Abstract Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have attracted considerable interest due to their intrinsic merits, such as excellent safety, affordability, and eco-friendliness. However, the practical deployment is greatly limited by H2O-induced parasitic reactions at the zinc metal...
