An integrated system simultaneously converting recyclable energy to electricity and storing energy is sought after. Here we …
Circular design supports Design for Disassembly (DfD) through an increased emphasis on ease-of-disassembly. DfD focuses on the type and number of fasteners used to secure a product and reducing the steps needed to disassemble a product. Because of the emphasis on DfD, manufacturers avoid using permanent …
4. Electrodes matching principles for HESDs. As the energy storage device combined different charge storage mechanisms, HESD has both characteristics of battery-type and capacitance-type electrode, it is therefore critically important to realize a perfect matching between the positive and negative electrodes.
Abstract. The world is predicted to face a lack of lithium supply by 2030 due to the ever-increasing demand in energy consumption, which creates the urgency to develop a more sustainable post-lithium energy storage technology. An alternative battery system that uses Earth-abundant metals, such as an aqueous aluminum ion battery …

Here we show that magnetic helical microstructures that propel themselves in the presence of rotating weak magnetic fields assemble into various configurations that exhibit locomotion and a change in swimming direction. The configuration is tuned dynamically, that is, assembly and disassembly occur, by the field input.
The controlled peptide self-assembly and disassembly are not only implicated in many cellular processes but also possess huge application potential in a wide range of biotechnology and biomedicine. β-sheet peptide assemblies possess high kinetic stability, so it is usually hard to disassemble them rapidly. Here, we reported that both …

As explained before, EOL products P 1 and P 2 are firstly taken apart into their constituent components on one of three parallel DWs (i.e., DW 1, DW 2, and DW 3) in the disassembly shop; the components are reprocessed through three parallel flow-shop-type RLs (i.e., RL 1, RL 2, and RL 3) in the reprocessing shop; and finally the …
The high electric field energy storage performance was characterized via displacement-electric field (DE) loops. The area inside the loops represented energy dissipation. At the same electric field, PI films with the coating exhibited much narrower DE loops relative to the uncoated films ( Figures 4 A and 4B ), especially at 150°C, indicating the suppression of …
