Topological transformation of microbial proteins into iron single-atom sites for selective hydrogen peroxide electrosynthesis by Xiaofeng Xiao, Zechao Zhuang, Shuhu Yin, Jiexin Zhu, Tao Gan, Ruohan Yu, Jinsong Wu, Xiaochun Tian, Yanxia Jiang, Dingsheng Wang, Feng Zhao

“…These moieties resemble the structural features of nonheme Fe-dependent enzymes while being effectively confined on a microbe-derived, electrically conductive carbon support, enabling high-current density electrolysis. A comparative analysis involving catalysts derived from eleven representative microbes reveals that the presence of 0.05 wt% Fe single-atom sites leads to a significant 26% increase in hydrogen peroxide selectivity. …”

Study on internal resistance of Li-ion power battery by Shaohua Cui, Jiaxun Sun, Zhaofeng Liu, Jiasen Sheng, Yunfei Chen, Han Yu, Dong Zhang

“…Purpose – The internal resistance of a single power lithium-ion battery is an important representation of its power characteristics. When the current flows through a single battery with high internal resistance, the amount of heat generated is relatively large, resulting in accelerated deterioration of the single power battery, further increasing the internal resistance, accelerating the deterioration of the single power battery with high internal resistance, and seriously affecting the endurance and safety performance of new energy vehicles. …”
