Dimensionally-controlled interlayer spaces of covalent organic frameworks for the oxygen evolution reaction (2023)
Journal Article
Liu, M., Fu, Y., Bi, S., Yang, S., Yang, X., Li, X., …Zeng, G. (2024). Dimensionally-controlled interlayer spaces of covalent organic frameworks for the oxygen evolution reaction. Chemical Engineering Journal, 479, Article 147682. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cej.2023.147682

ovalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been employed to catalyze the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, their catalytic activities have been limited, because their narrow interlayer space hindered the mass transport to the catalytic sites. Her...

Modulating Skeletons of Covalent Organic Framework for High‐Efficiency Gold Recovery (2023)
Journal Article
Liu, M., Jiang, D., Fu, Y., Zheng Chen, G., Bi, S., Ding, X., …Zeng, G. (in press). Modulating Skeletons of Covalent Organic Framework for High‐Efficiency Gold Recovery. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Article e202317015. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202317015

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted considerable attention as adsorbents for capturing and separating gold from electronic wastes. To enhance the binding capture efficiency, constructing hydrogen-bond nanotraps along the pore walls was...

Alkali and alkaline earth metals in liquid salts for supercapattery (2023)
Journal Article
Guo, Q., Fan, P., Zhang, Y., Guan, L., Wang, H., Croft, A. K., & Chen, G. Z. (2023). Alkali and alkaline earth metals in liquid salts for supercapattery. RSC Sustainability, https://doi.org/10.1039/d3su00197k

The full oxidation of lithium metal (4Li + O2 ⇌ 2Li2O) offers a mass normalised Gibbs energy change greater than that for the combustion of carbon (C + O2 ⇌ CO2) or any hydrocarbon fuel (CnH2n+2 + ((3n+1)/2)O2 ⇌ nCO2 + (n+1)H2O). This thermodynamic c... Read More about Alkali and alkaline earth metals in liquid salts for supercapattery.

Estimating the environmental impacts of global lithium-ion battery supply chain: A temporal, geographical, and technological perspective (2023)
Journal Article
Llamas-Orozco, J. A., Meng, F., Walker, G. S., Abdul-Manan, A. F. N., MacLean, H. L., Posen, I. D., & McKechnie, J. (2023). Estimating the environmental impacts of global lithium-ion battery supply chain: A temporal, geographical, and technological perspective. PNAS Nexus, 2(11), Article pgad361. https://doi.org/10.1093/pnasnexus/pgad361

A sustainable low-carbon transition via electric vehicles will require a comprehensive understanding of lithium-ion batteries’ global supply chain environmental impacts. Here, we analyze the cradle-to-gate energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of c...

Developing the global graduate: how first year university students’ narrate their experiences of culture (2018)
Journal Article
Dippold, D., Bridges, S., Eccles, S., & Mullen, E. (2019). Developing the global graduate: how first year university students’ narrate their experiences of culture. Language and Intercultural Communication, 19(4), 313-327. https://doi.org/10.1080/14708477.2018.1526939

Developing global graduates or global citizens is a goal often expressed in university mission statements. This study draws on Amadasi and Holliday's (2017) distinction of block narratives and thread narratives of culture and applies these to intervi...
