🚨PhD Opportunity in Computational Catalysis! Join our team at @CICenergiGUNE to advance atomistic modelling & AI for sustainable nitrogen conversion 🌱 See details below. #PhDposition #ComputationalChemistry #Catalysis #DFT #ML4Science @Chemjobber @TCD_Chemistry @TCD_Energy

🔋 In #HIPERZAB, SINTEF has developed a 3D Zn electrode using Room Temperature – Cold Sintering Process (RT-CSP) — for the first time with battery-grade Zn powders! ✅ +16% porosity vs SoA ✅ Optimized composition & procedure 🔋 Towards mid-to-long term storage!

🔧 In the #HIPERZAB project, CEGASA reports a key challenge: Standard lead-free solder alloys don't adhere well to sintered porous Zn electrodes — poor wetting, almost no adhesion, and issues for cell serialization. ✅ One successful alloy has now been identified — a step forward
