1062. Formation and discharge of Zn aponge anodes, followed by synchrotron hard X-ray ImagingBenedetto Bozzini, Nicola Sandini, Alexander Peter Kao, Alessio Veneziano, Lucia Mancini, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The fabrication of engineered Zn anodes often relies on different forms of ZnO as the material in direct contact with the alkaline aqueous electrolyte in the pristine assembled cell state. Of course, in this case, the as-assembled cell is in the discharged state and requires an initial charging step, or “formation”, to generate active metallic Zn. The formation of ZnO-based anodes is a complex process the control of which calls for an in-depth understanding of electrochemical phase growth. In fact, formation gives rise to morphochemical imprinting, profoundly impacting the electrode functional performance. The present work contributes to the understanding of the formation of Zn sponge electrodes, combining electrochemistry and synchrotron-based X-ray imaging. Specifically, we employed dynamic in operando radiography to select the potentiostatic formation conditions that exclude hydrogen-induced damaging of the sponge structure. Subsequently, formation and the subsequent first discharge are followed by time-lapse in situ tomography, allowing to track the early structural evolution of the sponge electrode and the Zn/ZnO phase distribution.

1063. Scale-up of zinc-air battery electrodes enhanced by 3D X-ray imagingBenedetto Bozzini, Alessandro Alleva, Elisa Emanuele, Sheraz Gul, Tianzhu Qin, Wenbing Yun, Lucia Mancini, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The scale-up of successful laboratory-scale zinc-air battery (ZAB) components is a stumbling block towards commercialization of this sustainable, cheap and safe technology. In this work, we consider electrode nanofabrication solutions that have been proved capable of overcoming durability criticalities at laboratory scale, but can miss their goal upon increasing electrode dimensions, owing to hard-to-discern electrode architecture issues. This contribution shows how X-ray computed microtomography can drive R&D of battery components.

1064. Continuous intergenerational play for neuroplasticity : the NeuroPlay ProjectRado Pišot, Uroš Marušič, 2025, drugi sestavni deli Povzetek: This case study compared the acute effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on vascular and microva-scular function in a healthy male subject (age: 34 yrs; body mass index: 25.82 kg/m2). Key vascular parameters were assessed, including augmentation index (AIx), ca-rotid-femoral and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (cfPWV, baPWV), flow-mediated slowing (FMS%), and tissue saturation index (TSI) recovery slope. HIIT induced a greater reduction in baPWV (mean difference [MD]: 0.9 m/s) and a higher increase in FMS% (MD: 8%) compared to MICT, indicating more favourable changes in periphe-ral arterial stiffness and endothelial function. Additionally, the reoxygenation slope for TSI was more pronounced after HIIT, suggesting improved microvascular recove-ry. Interestingly, AIx increased following MICT (MD from baseline: 11%) but slightly decreased after HIIT (MD from baseline: −5%). These findings suggest that exercise intensity plays a critical role in determining vascular adaptations, with HIIT showing superior acute benefits
