Thermal energy storage is crucial in the context of achieving carbon neutrality. Phase change latent heat stands out among various thermal storage methods due to the high energy density of phase change materials(PCMs).PCMs possess unique characteristics such as tunable thermal storage or/and release processes, constant phasetransition temperatures, and changes in physical state. However, solid-liquid PCMs cannot be directly utilized due to the liquid leakage in their melted state. The encapsulation of PCM microcapsules(PCMMs) is essential for overcoming limitations and optimizing functionalities of the PCMs. Encapsulation strategies play a key role in considering factors like morphology, structure, physicochemical properties, and specific applications. Furthermore, PCMMs can expand their potential applications by incorporating functional nano-materials within their shells or introducing specific components into their cores during the synthesis process. This review examines various encapsulation strategies for PCMMs, including physical, physicochemical, and chemical methods. Various applications of PCMMs are summarized and analyzed with regards to the characteristics of PCMs in thermal storage, temperature control, and state transformation. Furthermore, the reinforcement strategies or/and design considerations of PCMMs are crucial for meeting specific requirements, such as conventional latent heat storage,thermal protection, and thermal-triggered intelligent materials. Finally, it discusses current challenges, proposed solutions, and future research directions in the field of PCMMs, particularly Janus particle modified PCMMs.

Cell-to-cell variations(CtCV) compromise the electrochemical performance of battery packs, yet the evolutional mechanism and quantitative impacts of CtCV on the pack's fast-charging performance remain unexplored. This knowledge gap is vital for the proliferation of electric vehicles. This study underlies the relationship between CtCV and charging performance by assessing the pack's charge speed, final electric quantity, and temperature consistency. Cell variations and pack status are depicted using 2D parameter diagrams, and an m PnS configured pack model is built upon a decomposed electrode cell *** in three single electric parameters, i.e., capacity(Q), electric quantity(E), and internal resistance(R), and their dual interactions, i.e., E-Q and R-Q, are analyzed carefully. The results indicate that Q variations predominantly affect the final electric quantity of the pack, while R variations impact the charge speed most. With incremental variances in cell parameters, the pack's fast-charging capability first declines linearly and then deteriorates sharply as variations intensify. This research elucidates the correlations between pack charging capabilities and cell variations, providing essential insights for optimizing cell sorting and assembly, battery management design, and charging protocol development for battery packs.

Two-step conversion of methanol to aromatics via light hydrocarbons can significantly improve the conversion stability compared with direct aromatization of methanol,but it remains a challenge to achieve a high p-xylene(PX)***,silica coating was firstly used to passivate external acid sites of ZSM-5 catalyst for the aromatization of light hydrocarbons by the chemical liquid deposition *** the increase of SiO_(2) deposition,the density of the external acid sites of the catalyst was decreased from 0.1 to 0.03 mmol·g^(-1),which inhibited the surface secondary reactions and increased the PX/X from 34.6% to 60.0%.In view of the fact that the aromatization process in the second step was partly inhibited as methanol was consumed in advance in the upper methanol-to-light hydrocarbons catalyst layer,part of methanol was directly introduced into the lower aromatization catalyst layer to promote the alkylation process during the aromatization,which decreased the toluene selectivity from 34.5% to 14.3% but increased the xylene selectivity from 40.0%to 55.3%.It was also found that an appropriate external acid density was needed for aromatization catalyst to strengthen the alkylation process and improve the selectivity of xylene under the conditions of methanol introduction.

Zeolites are a class of inorganic microporous crystalline materials with ordered pore channels, unique shape selectivity, adjustable acidity and alkalinity, and high stability and have been widely used in gas adsorption and heterogeneous catalysis. The size of the zeolite pore structure determines its molecular sieving properties. Therefore, flexibly adjusting the zeolite pore structure and the host-guest interactions with guest molecules to control diffusion or reaction pathways is crucial for designing novel zeolites. Observing the real movement behavior of small molecules and changes in the local structure of the zeolite framework at the micro-nano scale is of great significance. Recently, emerging scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) imaging techniques, such as integrated differential phase contrast/optimum bright-field STEM (iDPC/OBF-STEM) and 4D-STEM ptychography have shown great potential for atomic resolution characterization of zeolites, since these are greatly advantageous for imaging electron beam-sensitive materials and light elements. This review first introduces the structural characteristics and applications of zeolites. Secondly, we discuss the application of three emerging imaging techniques in atomic imaging of zeolites. Thirdly, we focus on using iDPC-STEM imaging technology to observe the host-guest interactions between zeolites and single molecules (e.g., benzene, p-xylene, and pyridine). Furthermore, we explore the adsorption-desorption behavior of single molecules in zeolites using in situ iDPC-STEM imaging technology. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and future prospects of advanced TEM characterization techniques in the imaging of zeolite-confined single molecule.
