Although single-ion conductor polymers(SICP) have been developed to reduce concentration polarization, the poor ionic conductivity caused by low carrier concentration limits their application. Herein, a dual-salt quasi-solid polymer electrolyte(QSPE), containing the SICP network as a salt and traditional dual-ion lithium salt, is designed for retarding the movement of free anions and simultaneously providing sufficient effective carriers to alleviate concentration polarization. The dual salt network of this designed QSPE is prepared through in-situ crosslinking copolymerization of SICP monomer, regular ionic conductor, crosslinker with the presence of the dual-ion lithium salt,delivering a high lithium-ion transference number(0.75) and satisfactory ionic conductivity(1.16 × 10^(-3) S cm^(-1) at 30 ℃). Comprehensive characterizations combined with theoretical calculation demonstrate that polyanions from SICP exerts a potential repulsive effect on the transport of free anions to reduce concentration polarization inhibiting lithium dendrites. As a consequence, the Li||LiFePO_4 cell achieves a long-cycle stability for 2000 cycles and a 90% capacity retention at 30 ℃. This work provides a new perspective for reducing concentration polarization and simultaneously enabling enough lithiumions migration for high-performance polymer LMBs.展开更多

Transporting these particles through materials is essential for many applications, and porous materials with high surface area and porosity have become powerful platforms for their development. However, the stability of the holes in the material is crucial for adjusting the transmission performance, which may change significantly when the material is not stable enough, and the structure changes when it is in service in the environment. Various strategies have been adopted to improve the stability of COFs, including introducing strong electron-donating groups into the COFs and introducing irreversible reactions into the COF synthesis process. The transport regulation in stable COFs has been explored, and the structure-function relationship has been established. The prospects and challenges of COFs for the transport regulation of protons, electrons, and radicals have also been discussed. Overall, the breakthroughs in COF field have opened new possibilities for developing advanced materials with improved transport properties. The stable COFs have potential applications in energy storage, catalysis,and sensing. However, further research is needed to understand the transport properties of COFs fully and to optimize their performance for specific applications.展开更多

In potato, the RNA of several BELl-like transcription factors has been identified in phloem cells. One of these, StBEL5, and its Knox protein partner regulate tuber formation by targeting genes that control growth. RNA detection methods and grafting experiments demonstrated that StBEL5 transcripts move across a graft union to localize in stolon tips, the site of tuber induction. This movement of RNA originates in source leaf veins and petioles and is induced by a short-day photoperiod, regulated by the untranslated regions, and correlated with enhanced tuber production. Addition of the StBEL5 untranslated regions to another BELl.like mRNA resulted in its preferential transport to stolon tips leading to increased tuber production. Upon fusion of the untranslated regions of StBEL5 to a β-glucuronidase marker, translation in tobacco protoplasts was repressed by those constructs containing the 3＇ untranslated sequence. The untranslated regions of the StBEL5 mRNA are involved in mediating its long-distance transport and in controlling translation. The 3＇ untranslated sequence contains an abundance of conserved motifs that may serve as binding motifs for RNA-binding proteins. Because of their presence in the phloem sieve tube system, their unique untranslated region sequences and their diverse RNA accumulation patterns, the family of BEL1-like RNAs from potato represents a valuable model for studying the long-distance transport of full-length mRNAs and their role in development.展开更多
