Abstract Silicon is a promising alternative to the conventional graphite anode in high-energy lithium-ion batteries owing to its high gravimetric capacity. However, intrinsic issues, such as severe volume expansion during cycling, have plag... Read More
Abstract Fluorinated carbon materials (FCMs) have received significant attention, because of their exceptional stability, which is associated with the strong C-F bonding, the strongest among carbon single bonds. However, the fluorination of... Read More
Abstract Efficient electrochemical hydrogen production and biomass refinery are crucial for the decarbonization of various sectors. However, their energy-intensive nature and low efficiency have hindered their practical application. In this... Read More
Abstract The majority of waste-heat energy exists in the form of low-grade heat (<100 °C), which is immensely difficult to convert into usable energy using conventional energy-harvesting systems. Thermally regenerative electrochemical cy... Read More
Abstract The development of flexible electronic technology has led to convenient devices, including foldable displays, wearable, e-skin, and medical devices, increasing the need for flexible adhesives that can quickly recover their shape wh... Read More
A team of researchers, led by Professor Sung-Yeon Jang at UNIST’s School of Energy and Chemical Engineering has achieved a significant breakthrough with the development of a groundbreaking stretchable and self-healing polymer. This in... Read More
Sodium (Na)-ion batteries are rapidly gaining attention as the next-generation solution to replace lithium-ion batteries due to their lower production cost and similar battery systems. In a significant breakthrough, Professor Hyun-Wook Lee... Read More
Abstract The electrochemical co-reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrate (NO3−) to urea via C–N bond coupling is a promising alternative to traditional industrial processes that are intensive in energy consumption and CO2 emission. How... Read More
A research team affiliated with UNIST has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by developing an adhesive that can be easily and cleanly detached at high temperatures. Led by Professor Dong Woog Lee and his research team in the School of Ener... Read More
Abstract Potassium oxide (K2O) is used as a promotor in industrial ammonia synthesis, although metallic potassium (K) is better in theory. The reason K2O is used is because metallic K, which volatilizes around 400 °C, separates from the cat... Read More
