TL;DR: A combination of a hydrothermal KOH activation and successive pyrolysis of biomass reed flowers is proposed to prepare a bimodal porous carbon (BPC) material with high specific surface area and plenty spaces for sulfur impregnating which presents a great potential as a sulfur carrier material for Li-S battery applications.

TL;DR: In this article, closed-cell aluminum foams with different kinds and contents of ceramic microspheres are obtained using melt-foaming method, and the distribution and the effects of the ceramic micro-spheres on the mechanical properties of aluminum Foams are investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the fabrication of bimetallic oxides CoFe 2 O 4 nanoplates with porous feature through a dealloying method for the first time was investigated as anode material for Li-ion batteries.

TL;DR: In this article, closed-cell aluminum foams with different contents of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were fabricated by using modified melt foaming method.

TL;DR: The 3D CuO NWs network with a porous architecture simutaneously reduces the ion diffusion distances, promotes the electrolyte permeation and electronic conductivity, and might open a new window to develop durable CuO based composite anodes for LIBs.
