Bolin Li received her Ph.D. degree in 2021 from Guangxi University, PR China. She is now a Lecturer in The Department of Energy and Chemical Engineering, School of Chemical Engineering, Guangdong University of Petrochemical Technology, PR China. Her research interests include the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials as electrocatalysis for electrochemical energy conversion (water splitting for H2 production). Zesheng Li has been engaged in the scientific research of electrochemical energy materials and environmental catalytic materials (fuel cell electrocatalytic materials, electrochemical energy storage electrode materials, solar photocatalytic materials). He has accumulated some research experience in the design, synthesis, and functional regulation of nano materials (including SACs) and achieved interesting research results. In the past eight years, as the first author, corresponding author and second author, he has been published in important international academic journal of materials, chemistry, and chemical engineering: Adv. Mater., Chem. Commun., J. Mater. Chem. A, ACS Appl. Mater. Inter., J. Power Sources, Int. J. Hydrogen Energy, Electrochim. Acta, Chem. Eng. J. and other journals published 42 SCI research papers (26 first authors). There are 23 papers in JCR zone 1, 8 papers in JCR zone 2 and 11 papers in JCR zone 3 of the Chinese Academy of Sciences; 1 if ≥ 15, 10 if ≥ 6, 25 If ≥ 3; SCI papers have been cited for more than 2000 times, and the h index is currently 19 (19 papers have been cited for more than 19 times), the highest single article cited for more than 380 times (Adv. mater., 2013, 25, 2474-2480), the second highest for more than 120 times (J. mater. Chem., 2010, 20, 3883-3889), and the third highest for more than 80 times (Chem. Eng. J., 2014, 241, 344-351). Two papers (Chem. Eng. J., 2014, 241, 344-351; Chem. Eng.
