Reviewed by Lexie CornerA recent study published in Advanced Science examines how the structure of linear polymer cathodes affects the performance of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). Focusing on the role of active site density, the researchers synthesized two polymers (TABQ-DHBQ and TAPT-DHBQ) and used a combination of experiments and theoretical modeling to test a key assumption in battery design: that more active sites always translate to better energy storage.

Reviewed by Laura ThomsonA recent article published in the journal Nature comprehensively explored the distribution of subsurface microplastics in ocean waters, addressing an environmental concern that has received less attention than surface pollution. Using data from 1,885 stations collected between 2014 and 2024, the researchers aimed to clarify microplastic behavior below the surface, where inconsistent and limited sampling has hindered progress.
