Abstract
Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) are considered reliable supplies for next-generation energy devices. However, there is a limited understanding of strategies to prevent the performance deterioration of SIBs under extreme temperature conditions. This study aimed to address this challenge by developing modified electrolyte chemistry to achieve stable wide-temperature SIBs. Weakly Na+-solvating solvent 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (MeTHF) was used to promote the kinetics of Na+ de-solvation. Moreover, 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) was introduced as a co-solvent because of the high solubility for Na salts and the coupling reaction mechanism with the Bi electrode. The formulated electrolyte not only endows an anion-dominated NaF-rich solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer, but also reduces the energy required for the Na+ across the SEI layer (from 291.2 to 89.6 meV). Consequently, Na||Bi half batteries achieve stable cycles at 400 mA g-1 at -20, 20 and 60 °C, respectively. Meanwhile, the extreme operating temperature of the batteries can be extended to -40 and 80 °C, which exceeds those of most current lithium/sodium-based batteries. Furthermore, full batteries employing Na3V2(PO4)3 as the cathode material exhibit stable operation over a wide temperature range of -20 to 60 °C. This electrolyte design strategy presented in this study shows significant promise for enabling wide-temperature SIBs with improved performance.

Abstract
Selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) is one of the most common technique for elimination of NOx. The promotional effect of Fe additive on the NH3-SCR activity of the CeVO4/TiO2-graphene (GE) is systematically studied. The results exhibited that the low-temperature NOx conversion could be enhanced dramatically via the addition of Fe and Fe0.5Ce0.5VO4/TiO2-GE displayed the highest conversion of NOx in the wide temperature window (200-400 °C). It is because that Fe3+ + Ce3+ ↔ Fe2+ + Ce4+ facilitated the oxidization of NO to NO2 at low temperature and led to the "Fast SCR," thereby raising the SCR performance. What is more, the introduction of Fe enhanced redox ability, the surface relative percentage of Ce3+, V5+ and the chemical adsorbed oxygen. Furthermore, the high surface concentration of Ce3+ species can produce more active oxygen and leads to the "Fast SCR" reaction. In addition, the Fe0.5Ce0.5VO4/TiO2-GE catalyst showed excellent H2O/SO2 tolerance, which may be due to the decomposition of ammonium bisulphite under high temperature and the hydrophobicity of graphene. What is more, it displayed outstanding the stability. This work would provide theoretical reference for the practical application of NOx abatement via NH3-SCR.

Abstract
The possible effect of optimized acid sites on NH3-SCR performance and the fundamental mechanism are barely illustrated. In this work, we report two model catalysts of hexagonal (h-CPO) and monoclinic (m-CPO) cerium phosphate with disparate acidity that show different NH3-SCR activities under the same reaction conditions. Brønsted acid sites were found to be crucial for NH3-SCR performance at both low and high temperature. The electron localization discrepancy of h-CPO was more pronounced as compared with m-CPO, leading to the enrichment of P-OH (Brønsted acid site) which could strongly absorb NH3 and then generate NH4+ to participate in fast SCR via Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, resulting in good activity at low temperature. The zeolitic water stored in the open channels of h-CPO could be released as supplement for P-OH sites which prevent the depletion and non-selective oxidation of NH3 thus maintaining its high activity at high temperature via the Eley-Rideal mechanism. Meanwhile, as DFT calculation revealed, cerium is the electron deficient center which can easily fix NO and NO2 from the intake, generating active NO2(ad) or nitrites and facilitating fast SCR by reacting with NH4+ species. Hence, the superior protonation ability to form P-OH and low energy barrier to generate active nitrites of h-CPO led its T80 NOx conversion to a broaden temperature of 150-450 oC under high GHSV of 177,000 h-1. Furthermore, experimental and DFT calculation also demonstrated that the enriched Brønsted acid sites over h-CPO have largely suppressed SO2 adsorption, thus significantly reducing the formation of metal sulfates and achieving great SO2 resistance. The ammonium sulfate deposits can be storage of NH3, supplying additional reductant to promote high temperature activity and selectivity.

Abstract
The development of proton-conducting materials in cold regions is still at the initial stage due to the challenge in breaking the subzero temperature limit, especially in covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Herein, we fabricated a series of proton-conductive COFs as self-standing, highly flexible combined membranes (ssc-COFMs) composed of a processable TpBD-Me2 and a conductive Tp-TGCl, in-situ encapsulated proton-conducting ionic liquids (PCILs) as additional proton sources into backbones. Compositions and microstructures of ssc-COFMs are monitored by XRD, FTIR, nitrogen adsorption and elemental analysis. Comparison to other porous organic conductors, a great advance propelled renders the combined COF membranes to have a high protonic conductivities at medium and subzero temperatures (243 to 353 K), owing to the resultant multifaceted synergistic effect of multiple proton units. Specifically, the proton conductivities of the ssc-COFMs loaded with -SO4H functionalized PCILs reaches 2.87 × 10-4 S cm-1 (~58% RH) and 9.93 × 10-4 S cm-1 (~98% RH) at 243 K, together with 6.84 × 10-2 S·cm-1 under 353 K and ~ 98% RH.
