As the most critical component, solid-state electrolytes largely lead the future battery development and an ideal electrolyte must exhibit high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical window, and good compatibility with electrodes. Despite their inherent advantages, it still faces a great diversity of challenges. The stability of the solid electrolyte at high temperatures still requires further improvement to ensure optimal battery performance under elevated temperatures. The ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte is relatively low, leading to sluggish charge and discharge rates as well as rapid capacity degradation. Insufficient contact between solid interfaces can increase charge impedance and adversely impact battery performance. In this review, we reviewed the solid-state batteries on recent developments, followed by a detailed analysis of the underlying failure mechanisms that currently hinder their performance. Especially, it emphasized the intrinsic coupling among interfacial thermodynamics, reaction–transport competition, and electrochemical–mechanical degradation.

Herein, an S-scheme SnS<sub>2</sub>/WO<sub>3-x</sub> heterojunction photocatalytic system was rationally constructed for dichlorvos (DDVP) degradation. SnS<sub>2</sub> (NS) and WO<sub>3-x</sub> (WO) achieved DDVP degradation efficiencies of 60.3% and 58.8%, respectively, within 120 min, whereas NS/WO nanocomposites showed markedly enhanced activity.

After five consecutive cycles, corresponding to 600 min of total irradiation, 70-NS/WO retained 92.3% of its initial activity, indicating excellent cycling stability. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis and theoretical calculations support the proposed S-scheme charge-transfer pathway at the NS/WO interface. This heterojunction promotes directional carrier migration and efficient separation under the built-in electric field, suppresses electron-hole recombination, and preserves strong redox capability, thereby enhancing DDVP degradation.

Currently, TA is produced via the oxidation of petroleum-derived <i>p</i>-xylene, requiring an energy-intensive purification process to separate from its constitutional isomers (<i>o</i>- and <i>m</i>-xylene).
