Still under IEEPA and National Emergency Act
ICYMI PDJT EO today!
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), section 604 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2483), section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1862), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, it is hereby ordered:
Section 1. Purpose. The United States has imposed tariffs under various statutory authorities and through a number of Executive Orders and proclamations to protect national security and address unusual and extraordinary threats to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. Although each of these actions, as listed in section 2 of this order, serves separate and distinct policy purposes, I have now determined that, to the extent these tariffs apply to the same article, these tariffs should not all have a cumulative effect (or “stack” on top of one another) because the rate of duty resulting from such stacking exceeds what is necessary to achieve the intended policy goals. To avoid the cumulative effect of overlapping tariffs on certain articles, this order sets out the procedure for determining which of multiple tariffs shall apply to an article when that article is subject to more than one of the actions listed in section 2 of this order.

A novel design using pure platinum, graphene-protective layer and porous carbon support could enable fuel cells to power heavy-duty trucks reliably
For trucks and heavy-duty vehicles that must travel long distances without frequent, time-consuming charging stops, batteries often fall short. Hydrogen fuel cells — which can be refueled as quickly as traditional gasoline — offer a cleaner, more efficient alternative.

“Heavy-duty fuel cell systems must withstand harsh operating conditions over long periods, making durability a key challenge,” said Huang, who holds the Traugott and Dorothea Frederking Endowed Chair at UCLA Samueli. “Our pure platinum catalyst, enhanced with a graphene-based protection strategy, overcomes the shortcomings of conventional platinum alloys by preventing the leaching of alloying elements. This innovation ensures that the catalyst remains active and robust, even under the demanding conditions typical of long-haul applications.”
The new catalyst exhibited a power loss of less than 1.1% after an accelerated stress test involving 90,000 square-wave voltage cycles designed to simulate years of real-world driving, where even a 10% loss is typically considered excellent. These superior results project fuel cell lifetimes exceeding 200,000 hours, far surpassing the DOE’s target of 30,000 hours for heavy-duty proton exchange membrane fuel cell systems.
By successfully addressing the dual challenges of catalytic activity and durability, UCLA researchers’ innovative catalyst design holds great promise for the adoption of hydrogen-powered heavy-duty vehicles — an essential step toward reducing emissions and improving fuel efficiency in a sector that accounts for a substantial share of transportation energy use.
The team’s findings built on its earlier success in developing a fuel cell catalyst for light-duty vehicles that demonstrated a lifespan of 15,000 hours — nearly doubling the DOE’s target of 8,000 hours.
The new study’s lead authors are UCLA Ph.D. graduates Zeyan Liu and Bosi Peng, both advised by Huang, whose research group specializes in developing nanoscale building blocks for complex materials, such as fuel cell catalysts. Xiaofeng Duan, a professor of chemistry and biochemistry at UCLA, and Xiaoqing Pan, a professor of materials science and engineering at UC Irvine, are also authors on the paper. Huang and Duan are both members of the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA.
Other authors on the paper are Yu-Han “Joseph” Tsai and Ao Zhang from UCLA, as well as Mingjie Xu, Wenjie Zang, XingXu Yan and Li Xing from UC Irvine.
UCLA’s Technology Development Group has filed a patent on the technology.
