Herein, we investigate the relationship among structure characteristics, cycling performance, and Mn content, revealing that the cycling performance of NM cathodes is associated with Mn-level controlled cation ordering within their structures. Specifically, except for the inherent Li⁺/Ni²⁺ disorder, higher Mn levels in NM cathodes tend to disrupt the Ni²⁺/Mn⁴⁺ ordering, resulting in phase segregation and the formation of Mn-enriched regions with Mn³⁺/Mn³⁺ pairs. Distorted [Mn³⁺O₆] octahedra, weak interactions between Mn³⁺ ions, and Mn³⁺ dissolution in the Mn-enriched regions are detrimental to the structural stability of NM cathodes, thus leading to inferior cycling performance. This study provides a profound understanding of Mn roles in Co-free Ni-rich cathodes and highlights the significance of maintaining cation ordering to achieve high-performance NM cathodes.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"55 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144533937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the widespread adoption of AIBs has been impeded by the limitations of conventional AlCl₃-based ionic liquid electrolytes, which are characterized by high cost, corrosiveness, and sensitivity to moisture. In this study, we present a novel ternary eutectic electrolyte system for AIBs that addresses these challenges, offering enhanced stability, reduced corrosivity, and cost efficiency. The proposed electrolyte is composed of aluminum trifluoromethanesulfonate, ethylene glycol (EG), and <i>N</i>-methylacetamide (NMA) with an optimized ratio. Through comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, we demonstrate that the coordination structure of metal cations in the electrolyte is effectively modulated by interactions with EG and NMA molecules, and the synergistic combination of EG and NMA with Al³⁺ can reduce hydrogen evolution corrosion and side reaction of free ligands, effectively promoting the reaction kinetics and enhancing the stability of the Al electrode. Furthermore, the assembled AIB achieves a remarkable discharge capacity of 91 mAh g^–1 while exhibiting exceptional cycling stability. Moreover, the energy storage mechanism of the AIBs has been systematically investigated and elucidated. This study provides fundamental insights into the design of efficient AIB systems and offers valuable guidance for developing next-generation metal-ion batteries.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144533938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Singha","doi":"10.1021/acssuschemeng.5c00240","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1021/acssuschemeng.5c00240","url":null,"abstract":"Inspired by the robust adhesion mechanisms of marine organisms, this study presents the development of catechol-modified, biobased elastomeric adhesives utilizing Diels–Alder (DA) “click” chemistry. Epoxidized natural rubber (ENR), a sustainable elastomer derived from natural rubber, was chemically modified to introduce furfuryl functionality, enabling dynamic cross-linking with a catechol-based cross-linker (DOPAMal: dopamine-maleimide). The resulting adhesive system combines the remarkable adhesion properties of catechol moieties with the thermal reversibility of DA chemistry, creating a unique platform for advanced adhesive applications. The thermo-reversible covalent bonds formed via DA chemistry were characterized using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The incorporation of the catechol-based DOPAMal into the polymer chains transformed the soft ENR into a more rigid material, as demonstrated by nanoindentation (NINT) analysis. The tensile study revealed a notable improvement in mechanical strength due to the formation of hydrogen bonding and dynamic covalent DA adducts. Adhesion strength and reusability were evaluated through lap shear tests, revealing strong bonding and remarkable recovery. The adhesives demonstrated excellent self-healing behavior, as confirmed by optical microscopy, with damage recovery attributed to dynamic covalent bonding and hydrogen bonding interaction. This system utilizes the reversible nature of Diels–Alder reactions in combination with the strong noncovalent interactions of catechol moieties to create adhesives with superior adhesion strength, thermoreversibility, and self-healing properties. These properties make the developed adhesives highly suitable for applications in coatings, biomedical materials, and other industries requiring durable yet reversible adhesive systems. The work establishes a versatile framework for incorporating bioinspired strategies into elastomeric materials, paving the way for sustainable and multifunctional adhesives.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144533939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In alignment with international initiatives, including the United Nations’ Race to Zero campaign and the Paris Agreement, companies are committing to environmental stewardship. The industry has adopted green chemistry (GC) principles in the production of life-saving medications, ensuring that manufacturing processes are both commercially viable and have minimal environmental impact. As such, GC emerges as a critical component of these initiatives, providing environmental and economic benefits by minimizing waste, increasing process efficiency, and reducing operational costs. Recent innovations in greener synthetic methods exemplify the practical advantages of GC in pharmaceutical manufacturing. However, the sector continues to confront challenges, particularly concerning Scope 3 emissions within the supply chain, necessitating a comprehensive approach to sustainability. The implementation of GC not only reduces environmental impacts, including waste production and water consumption, but also improves financial performance and corporate reputation. As investor interest in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors continue to increase, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly acknowledging the economic benefits associated with sustainable practices. This paper explores current strategies for integrating GC into active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing, highlighting both achievements and obstacles. It underscores the urgent need for improved communication regarding the business value of GC and the integration of environmental metrics into manufacturing practices, especially amid a shifting regulatory landscape.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144533940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to the catalyst’s toxic, corrosive, and environmentally hazardous gaseous properties, researchers are actively investigating alternative synthetic methods for low-viscosity PAO production. In this study, we present a novel approach that employs ethylaluminum sesquichloride-mediated hydro-alkylation to convert high-carbon α-olefin dimers (which are not suitable as direct lubricant base stocks) and chlorinated alkanes into ultralow viscosity and medium-high viscosity PAO products. Chlorinated hydrocarbons demonstrate dual reactivity in this process. By incorporating triethylsilane as an effective hydrogen donor and precisely controlling the olefin dimer/chloroalkane ratio, we successfully synthesized PAO2 and PAO3.5 with ultralow pour points (−78 °C) and a selectivity of 97%, achieving low-temperature performance that is comparable to commercial standards. Excess chlorinated hydrocarbons undergo β-hydrogen transfer, producing tertiary carbocations and α-olefins, which then undergo polymerization to yield PAO20 with an enhanced high viscosity index. Gas chromatography (GC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses revealed that the steric hindrance of chlorinated hydrocarbons plays a significant role in influencing reaction activity and the architecture of the resulting products. Only terminal olefin adducts were detected. Molecular topology analysis indicated that compact molecular dimensions promote pour point depression in base oils. This study utilized hydro-alkylation to transform chlorinated alkanes into high-value PAO base oils, yielding ultralow viscosity polyalphaolefins with well-defined architectures. By achieving precise molecular control through substrate modulation, we established a novel technical approach for lubricant molecular engineering with a correlation between structure and performance.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144479584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the continuous Li⁺-transport channels, enhanced mechanical strength, and superior interfacial compatibility, the resulting PL–PB SSEs exhibited uniform lithium deposition, high ionic conductivity (0.22 mS cm^–1), large Li⁺ transference number (0.66), and wide electrochemical stability window (5.07 V) at 45 °C. The assembled Li||Li symmetric cell with PL–PB SSE delivered excellent cycling stability at 0.1 mA cm^–2 and 0.1 mAh cm^–2 over 900 h with a lower hysteresis voltage overpotential of 16 mV. The all-solid-state Li||LFP full cell with PL–PB SSE showed a lower capacity decay of 0.003% per cycle after 450 cycles at 1.0C than that of PL–P SSE without β powders (0.04%).
