“…By analogy, NW heredity can be achieved by template synthesis to transmit properties to subsequent generations. As the first generation NWs, Te NWs can be synthesized on a large scale and be economically recycled and resued without performance degradation . Generally, there are two independent processes to deliver information, that is the physical route and the chemical route.…”

“…Furthermore, after delivering their information to the next generation, 1G NWs are preferably economically recycled from waste solutions and reused without performance degradation. To achieve this goal, Yu and co‐workers reported a concept of recycling Te NWs that the recycled Te NWs could be reused during the information delivery process (Figure e) . In details, Te NWs usually transform into ionic species that dissolved in the waste solutions after being used as first generation templates.…”

1D nanomaterials with high aspect ratio, i.e., nanowires and nanotubes, have inspired considerable research interest thanks to the fact that exotic physical and chemical properties emerge as their diameters approach or fall into certain length scales, such as the wavelength of light, the mean free path of phonons, the exciton Bohr radius, the critical size of magnetic domains, and the exciton diffusion length. On the basis of their components, aspect ratio, and properties, there may be imperceptible connections among hundreds of nanowires prepared by different strategies. Inspired by the heredity system in life, a new concept termed the “nanowire genome” is introduced here to clarify the relationships between hundreds of nanowires reported previously. As such, this approach will not only improve the tools incorporating the prior nanowires but also help to precisely synthesize new nanowires and even assist in the prediction on the properties of nanowires. Although the road from start‐ups to maturity is long and fraught with challenges, the genetical syntheses of more than 200 kinds of nanostructures stemming from three mother nanowires (Te, Ag, and Cu) are summarized here to demonstrate the nanowire genome as a versatile toolbox. A summary and outlook on future challenges in this field are also presented.

“…Yu et al. zeigten ferner, dass das Recycling von TeNWs für die mehrfache Anwendung in der Templat‐Synthese mit beachtlicher Ausbeute möglich ist, was die TeNW‐unterstützte Synthese von CNF‐Aerogelen wirtschaftlicher und nachhaltiger macht . Ohne Frage ist die Suche nach preisgünstigen und sogar erneuerbaren Alternativen zu TeNWs nach wie vor sehr wünschenswert.…”

Kohlenstoff‐Aerogele, die typischerweise mit Sol‐Gel‐Chemie hergestellt werden, bestehend aus einzigartigen dreidimensionalen Netzwerken von nanometergroßen Partikeln und weisen faszinierende physikalische Eigenschaften mit großen Anwendungspotenzialen auf. Um die praktischen Anwendungen voranzubringen, ist es dringend notwendig, effiziente und kostengünstige Verfahren zur Herstellung von hochleistungsfähigen Kohlenstoff‐Aerogelen in großem Maßstab zu entwickeln, und das vorzugsweise auf eine nachhaltige Art und Weise. Im Jahr 2012 wurde über zwei neue Klassen von Aerogelen aus Kohlenstoff‐Nanofasernetzwerken (CNF) berichtet. Sie wurden aus einem aus Biomasse gewonnenen Vorläufer durch Chemosynthese (d. h. templatgesteuerte hydrothermale Karbonisierung von Kohlenhydraten) und Biosynthese (d. h. Verwendung von bakterieller Cellulose als Vorstufe) hergestellt. Dieser Aufsatz gibt einen kritischen Überblick über dieses neuartige Gebiet und beschränkt sich dabei auf die Synthesestrategien der Kohlenstoffnanofaser‐Aerogele und ihre hervorragenden physikalischen Eigenschaften. Ebenso besprechen wir das Potenzial für die multifunktionale Anwendungen der beiden neuartigen Kohlenstoff‐Aerogele und ihrer Nanokomposite und zeigen die Herausforderungen und die zukünftigen Möglichkeiten in diesem spannenden Gebiet auf.

“…Consequently, the Fe/N‐CNFs catalysts display comparable ORR activity to commercial Pt/C catalyst in alkaline media, and acceptable ORR performance in acidic media. Moreover, considering the use of biomass‐derived precursors and recyclability of the TeNWs templates, the current method is very attractive in terms of sustainability and cost compared to traditional hard‐templating synthesis.…”

It is urgent to develop new kinds of low-cost and high-performance nonprecious metal (NPM) catalysts as alternatives to Pt-based catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells and metal-air batteries, which have been proved to be efficient to meet the challenge of increase of global energy demand and CO emissions. Here, an economical and sustainable method is developed for the synthesis of Fe, N codoped carbon nanofibers (Fe-N/CNFs) aerogels as efficient NPM catalysts for ORR via a mild template-directed hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) process, where cost-effective biomass-derived d(+)-glucosamine hydrochloride and ferrous gluconate are used as precursors and recyclable ultrathin tellurium nanowires are used as templates. The prepared Fe/N-CNFs catalysts display outstanding ORR activity, i.e., onset potential of 0.88 V and half-wave potential of 0.78 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode in an alkaline medium, which is highly comparable to that of commercial Pt/C (20 wt% Pt) catalyst. Furthermore, the Fe/N-CNFs catalysts exhibit superior long-term stability and better tolerance to the methanol crossover effect than the Pt/C catalyst in both alkaline and acidic electrolytes. This work suggests the great promise of developing new families of NPM ORR catalysts by the economical and sustainable HTC process.
