Article Abstract
The reactive oxygen species (O*) released from the nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes (LiNiCoMnO, NCM) are responsible for triggering thermal runaway (TR) in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Specifically, the charge compensation from transition metal (TM) 3d to oxygen (O) 2p in NCM plays a pivotal role in O* release. Here, inspired by the strong chelating effect of sodium phytate (PN) on TM, we employ PN as a cathode additive to coordinate with nickel, thereby weakening the charge compensation of TM 3d to O 2p on the surface of LiNiCoMnO (NCM811) and ultimately enhancing battery safety. It is shown that the chelation successfully stabilizes lattice oxygen and suppresses the release of O*, preventing detrimental phase transitions in NCM811 and reducing heat generation from O* related crosstalk reactions. Consequently, the TR trigger temperature (T) of NCM811 pouch cell with PN elevates from 125.9 to 184.8 °C, while the maximum temperature (T) decreases from 543.7 to 319.7 °C. Moreover, the PN-derived modification layer allows NCM811 to maintain exceptional cycling stability for over 700 cycles at 4.6 V. This strategy provides a facile method for stabilizing lattice oxygen in NCM, inhibiting O*-triggered TR, and enhancing high-voltage performance.

RuO, the benchmark catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), has traditionally been considered Pauli paramagnetic; however, recent findings have demonstrated its antiferromagnetic (AFM) properties, hinting at the opportunity to enhance RuO's OER performance by manipulating its magnetic traits. In this study, we successfully induced weak ferromagnetism in commercial RuO, transitioning it from an AFM state using an electrochemical sodiation method. This process resulted in high activity, achieving an overpotential of 145 mV to reach 10 mA cm and extending the service hours by more than 13 times compared to pristine RuO in 0.

Developing highly active and stable nonprecious electrocatalysts toward sluggish alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is essential for large-scale green hydrogen production via electrochemical water splitting. Here we report phase and surface co-reconstruction of S-doped (NiCo)WC nanoparticles into (NiCo)C with amorphous electroactive NiCoOOH layer for highly efficient alkaline OER by W dissolution and NiCo surface oxidation. The W dissolution results in the formation of Brønsted base WO ions, which electrostatically accumulate around electrode to promote water dissociation into abundant OH* intermediates, in situ constructing a locally strong alkaline microenvironment to facilitate OH* adsorption on NiCoOOH sites and trigger lattice-oxygen oxidation path.

Constructing robust electrocatalysts and shedding light on the processes of surface reconstruction is crucial for sustained hydrogen production and a deeper understanding of catalytic behavior. Here, a novel ZIF-67-derived lanthanum- and phosphorus-co-doped CoO catalyst (La, P-CoO) has been reported. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) confirms that the La and P co-doping reduces the coordination number (CN), improves oxygen vacancies (O), and leads to lattice distortion.

High-temperature oxidation reactions catalyzed by earth-abundant transition metal oxides are vital for numerous industrial and environmental processes. However, their performance is often limited by the rapid desorption of active oxygen species at high temperatures. Here, we describe a straightforward approach to constructing a CuMn spinel/MnO composite oxide catalyst that addresses this limitation and demonstrate that lattice oxygen can spontaneously migrate to form interface-stabilized superoxo species under high-temperature reaction conditions.

High-nickel layered oxide LiNiCoMnO (NCM, ≥ 0.8) materials are considered optimal cathodes for lithium-ion power batteries owing to their high energy density, commendable cycling performance, and cost-effectiveness. However, structural collapse and interface instability during cycling result in diminished cycling stability, significantly hindering their commercial viability.
