Improving the thermoelectric properties of CaCoO by reducing thermal conductivity through composite nano-ZnO.

Composite nanomaterial is a scientific solution to modulating the properties of thermoelectric materials. The thermoelectric properties of CaCoO ceramic that remain stable in high-temperature air are relatively low, and how to decouple the relationship between heat and electricity is the focus of the research. This study systematically investigates the thermoelectric transport properties of composite CaCoO@ZnO materials.

High performance UiO-66 through microwave-assisted and Cr doping for adsorption heat storage applications.

The metal-organic framework UiO-66 is a promising water vapor adsorbent due to its stability and hydrophilicity. In this study, we systematically investigated the modulation of pore structure and water adsorption performance of UiO-66 through microwave-assisted synthesis and controlled Cr doping. The results indicated that the crystalline integrity and thermal stability of the framework remained well-preserved after doping.
