Rechargeable metal-air batteries offer exceptional theoretical energy densities but require durable bifunctional electrocatalysts that efficiently mediate oxygen reduction (ORR) and oxygen evolution (OER). Here, a triazole-based cobalt complex (CoTzN) is developed to bridge molecular-level mechanistic understanding wit...

The anodic electro-oxidation of ethanol is central to energy conversion, electro-synthesis, and hydrogen-producing electrolyzers, yet the lack of inexpensive electro-catalysts combining high activity and selectivity toward acetic acid, along with durability, remains a critical challenge. Herein, we report the ambient...
MXenes have emerged as a versatile two-dimensional platform in advanced catalytic systems because of their tunable surface chemistry, metallic conductivity, and structural diversity. Nevertheless, severe agglomeration and limited colloidal stability may undermine their catalytic performance. Integrating MXenes with l...

Biodiversity is central to the functioning, stability, and climate relevance of marine vegetated ecosystems, yet its role in macroalgal carbon sequestration remains underappreciated in current climate and biodiversity frameworks. Macroalgae contribute substantially to coastal primary production, habitat formation, an...
