In order to implement the Montreal Protocol to protect the Earth's ozone layer, countries around the world have introduced zero-ODP values of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) to phase out chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrofluorides Chlorocarbons (HCFCs). At present, HFCs and HFOs have been widely used as refrigerants, cleaning agents, foaming agents, fire extinguishing agents, etchants, and etc.

Is there an alternative to nanostructuring electrode materials to speed up ionic diffusion in lithium-ion batteries and so increase their maximum power output and charging rates? Yes, according researchers at the University of Cambridge in the UK, who have shown that two complex niobium tungsten oxides can intercalate large amounts of lithium even when the oxides are microns in size.

With the continuous exploitation of high-quality tungsten-molybdenum ore resources, complex tungsten-molybdenum symbiotic mineral resources are gradually being consumed. However, the impurity content in tungsten product or molybdenum product seriously affects its performance. The most difficult impurity element to remove from tungsten products is molybdenum, while for molybdenum products, tungsten is the most difficult to separate. In order to improve the performance of tungsten and molybdenum products, separation of tungsten and molybdenum is necessary. Therefore, in order to efficiently utilize these tungsten-molybdenum symbiotic mineral resources, the separation of tungsten and molybdenum is the key.
