The hierarchical aminated polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/γ-AlOOH electrospun composite nanofibers were prepared by a combination of electrospinning process, chemical modification and hydrothermal reaction. The obtained membranes were carefully examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The hierarchical aminated PAN/γ-AlOOH composite nanofibers were proved to be good adsorbents toward Pb(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions in aqueous solution. The adsorption process of the Pb(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions could be described by Langmuir isotherm model and kinetics were found to follow the pseudo-second-order rate equation. The maximum adsorption capacities of hierarchical aminated PAN/γ-AlOOH electrospun composite nanofibers for Pb(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) were 180.83 mg/g, 48.68 mg/g and 114.94 mg/g, respectively. The results proved that the synergetic adsorption effect between amine groups and γ-AlOOH crystals contributed to the high adsorption activity of the hierarchical aminated PAN/γ-AlOOH composite nanofibers. The obtained membranes can be potentially applied in heavy metal ions removal from wastewater effluents.

Exploring the interaction between metal and support is of great importance in enhancing the catalytic performance and deepening the mechanistic understanding of single atom catalysis. Here we describe a photoinduction method to construct atomically dispersed palladium atoms supported over defect-containing boehmite (γ-AlOOH) nanoleaf with a palladium loading of 0.32 wt%. The existence of singly dispersed palladium atoms is confirmed by spherical aberration correction electron microscopy, extended X-ray absorption fine structure measurement, and CO-absorbed diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy. This catalyst shows excellent catalytic efficiency in trans -stilbene epoxidation to yield trans -stilbene oxide (TOF: 416 h −1 ; conversion: 84 %; selectivity: 99 %), along with excellent recyclability and scalability. In addition, various aromatic olefins were successfully transformed into the corresponding epoxides with high selectivity and excellent yield. DFT study further reveals that the high catalytic activity originates from under-coordinated single palladium atoms in the defect-containing γ-AlOOH in a unique coordination environment. This lays the foundation for the facile creation of single atom catalysts and sheds light on the possibility for scale-up production.

Mesoporous γ-AlOOH and γ-Al2O3 with fibrous morphology were successfully synthesized by an ionic liquid ([OMim]Br) assisted low temperature precipitation method using aluminum nitrate and ammonia as aluminum source and precipitant, respectively. The samples were characterized by XRD, TG, FT-IR, TEM, and N2 adsorption–desorption technique. The results showed that the concentration of [OMim]Br had a significant effect on the phase, porous structure, and morphology of γ-Al2O3 due to the strong interactions between [OMim]Br and γ-AlOOH. High purity γ-AlOOH was synthesized at 0.2 M [OMim]Br and γ-Al2O3 with a specific surface area of 243.53 m2 g−1, pore volume of 0.68 cm3 g−1, and average pore size of 11.10 nm was obtained after calcination. Furthermore, the recyclability of [OMim]Br was investigated. The recovery rate of [OMim]Br could reach 95.0 wt%, and the recycled [OMim]Br still had effects on the synthesis of γ-AlOOH and γ-Al2O3.

Upgrading liquid electrolytes with all-solid-state electrolytes (ASEs) or quasi-solid-state electrolytes (QSEs) for solid-state batteries (SBs) have emerged not only to address the intrinsic disadvantages of traditional liquid lithium ion batteries, but also to offer more possibilities for the development of new battery chemistries. In this work, a novel rambutan-like yolk–shell-structured porous γ-AlOOH microsphere with a large specific surface area of 262.92 m2 g−1 was firstly obtained by a simple hydrothermal synthesis route, which was then utilized as a robust framework to assemble QSE via encapsulating abundant liquid electrolyte (LE). The obtained γ-AlOOH-QSE exhibits a high ionic conductivity of 4.0 × 10−3 S cm−1, a large lithium ion transference number (tLi+) of 0.76, as well as a wide electrochemical window of 4.72 V vs. Li/Li+. Moreover, the assembled cell of LiFePO4/γ-AlOOH-QSE/Li could maintain a high specific capacity of 144.4 mA h g−1 even after 120 cycles with almost negligible capacity decay, which could be mainly attributed to the excellent interfacial compatibility, prominent performance in suppressing lithium dendrite growth upon cycling (rigid characteristic), as well as the high ionic conductivity of γ-AlOOH-QSE (intrinsic advantage). This work could not only expand the applications of QSE with cost-effective aluminum-based oxides with facile fabrication strategy, but also will shed light on the construction of SEs with more integrated QSEs and ASEs in the field of advanced energy storage.

A novel yolk–shell-structured material (Fe 3 O 4 @γ-AlOOH-YSMs) with hierarchical γ-AlOOH flakes as the mesoporous shell and Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (NPs) in the hollow core was prepared by using Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 NPs as the seeds as well as NaAlO 2 and urea as the precursor. The prepared Fe 3 O 4 @γ-AlOOH-YSMs were used as a catalyst support for fabricating a Pd/Fe 3 O 4 @γ-AlOOH-YSMs nanocatalyst with no obvious aggregation of the Pd NPs. The Pd/Fe 3 O 4 @γ-AlOOH-YSMs nanocatalyst was utilized for the catalytic reduction of the widely used and highly toxic 4-nitrophenol, rhodamine B, methylene blue, and methyl orange; and showed excellent catalytic activity as compared with other noble-metal-based catalysts. Furthermore, the Pd/Fe 3 O 4 @γ-AlOOH-YSMs nanocatalyst also can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused for at least ten times without any obvious decrease in the catalytic activity, indicating its reusability and stability.

To enhance the proton conductivity and durability of Ce-based hybrid proton exchange membranes (PEMs), this study fabricates modified perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) hybrid membranes by incorporating the dual-function γ-AlOOH@Ti-supported CeO 2 composite oxide (γ-AlOOH@Ti/CeO 2 ). In addition to combining the inherent proton conductivity of γ-AlOOH with the excellent radical scavenging ability of CeO 2 , both the proton conductivity and durability of Ce-based PEMs are further improved by introducing Ti-dopant, which not only increases hydrogen vacancies on the surface of γ-AlOOH, which facilitate proton conduction, and induces electron transfer from γ-AlOOH@Ti to CeO 2 , which enhance free radical adsorption. As results shown, the proton conductivity and the fluoride release value of the resulting hybrid membrane are about 76 % higher and 35.25 % lower than those of the PFSA-CeO 2 membrane, respectively. Moreover, the performance of cells shows that, after accelerated degradation testing, the PFSA-γ-AlOOH@Ti/CeO 2 membrane exhibits the lowest peak power density decrease rate, the impedance increase rate and hydrogen crossover current density, with 11.79 %, 27.54 % and 3.04 mA cm −2 , respectively. These results suggest that compared to CeO 2 -hybrid PEMs, γ-AlOOH@Ti/CeO 2 -based hybrid PEMs exhibit higher proton conductivity and superior chemical stability, indicating the potential application of γ-AlOOH@Ti/CeO 2 -based hybrid PEMs in proton exchange membrane fuel cells.

In this work, CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH is prepared, and then UTSA-16 is loaded on CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH to obtain UTSA-16@CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH. Using the as-prepared composites as stationary materials by cryogenic gas chromatography at 77 K, while CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH achieves the complete separation of ortho-H2 (o-H2) and D2 with a resolution R of 1.66 and a separation time t of 9.52 min, UTSA-16@CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH achieves higher efficiency separation of hydrogen isotopes in a shorter separation time (4.56 min) with R = 1.7. Molecular simulation results show that CAU-10-H has both chemical affinity quantum sieving and kinetic sieving effects for H2/D2 at 77 K, and UTSA-16 can only exert the kinetic sieving effect. UTSA-16’s load on CAU-10-H@γ-AlOOH weakens the adsorption of hydrogen isotopes, and the presence of Co2+ in UTSA-16 promotes the conversion of para-H2 to ortho-H2. In gas chromatography, H2 was preferentially desorbed from the system due to strong D2 adsorption caused by the chemical affinity quantum sieving effect and faster H2 diffusion caused by the kinetic sieving effect. These additive effects achieved efficient hydrogen isotope separation at 77 K.

Organic dyes are widely used in many important areas, but they also bring many issues for water pollution. To address the above issues, a reconstructed kaolinite hybrid compound (γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol) was obtained from raw kaolinite (Kaol) in this work. The product was then characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the absorption properties of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol for congo red were further studied. The results demonstrated that flower-like γ-AlOOH with nanolamellae were uniformly loaded on the surface of acid-treated Kaol with a porous structure (A-Kaol). In addition, the surface area (36.5 m2/g), pore volume (0.146 cm3/g), and pore size (13.0 nm) of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol were different from those of A-Kaol (127.4 m2/g, 0.127 cm3/g, and 4.28 nm, respectively) and γ-AlOOH (34.1 m2/g, 0.315 cm3/g, and 21.5 nm, respectively). The unique structure could significantly enhance the sorption capacity for congo red, which could exceed 1000 mg/g. The reasons may be ascribed to the abundant groups of -OH, large specific surface area, and porous structure of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol. This work provides an efficient route for comprehensive utilization and production of Kaol-based compound materials that could be used in the field of environmental conservation.

γ-AlOOH nanopowder synthesized using hydrothermal-assisted freeze-drying was employed as a precursor, with AlF₃ as a sintering aid, to explore the preparation of α-Al₂O₃ with a high specific surface area at elevated temperatures. The γ-AlOOH nanopowder produced in this study exhibited superior dispersion, achieving a specific surface area of 198.06 m 2 /g and a zeta potential of 45.8 mV. At a calcination temperature of 1200 °C, the resulting α-Al₂O₃, synthesized from γ-AlOOH and AlF₃, maintained a specific surface area of 27.72 m 2 /g, significantly higher than the typical values reported in the literature (generally below 10 m 2 /g). The α-phase purity exceeded 99 %, and the [AlO₆] proportion was 95.07 %. Furthermore, at a calcination temperature of 1150 °C, the specific surface area of the α-Al₂O₃ reached 50.48 m 2 /g. Using this α-Al₂O₃ as a carrier, a composite TiO₂ catalyst was prepared via a sol-gel and hydrothermal method. This catalyst demonstrated a photocatalytic degradation rate of over 98 % for rhodamine B (10 mg/L) within 30 min of irradiation, under the illumination of a 300 W mercury lamp in proximity to the light source.

The Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP was prepared using γ-AlOOH support by impregnation method. • The strong MSI and electron-rich Pt sites are fabricated in Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP. • Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP exhibits excellent catalytic performance in the hydrosilylation. • Electron-rich Pt sites promote the TES adsorption and Si–H bond cleavage. Hydrosilylation is a highly important method for the preparation of organosilicon compounds, in which homogeneous Pt catalysts exist poor recyclability and high production costs. Here, we prepared supported Pt-based catalyst (Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP) using γ-AlOOH support by impregnation (IP) method, in which strong metal-support interactions (MSI) and electron-rich Pt sites were fabricated. Catalytic measurements show that Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP has the best catalytic activity in the conversion of 1-octene and triethoxysilane (TES)via hydrosilylation to n-octyltriethoxysilane (OTES), the yield of OTES is 93.6% with 94.3% selectivity at 80 ℃, 2.5 h, m (Pt) /m (1-octene) = 7.5 × 10 −5 and n (TES) /n (1-octene) = 1.33, which are commensurate with homogeneous Karstedt’s catalyst. The significant catalytic performance of Pt/γ-AlOOH-IP originates from more electron transfer between Pt and γ-AlOOH. Electron-rich Pt sites promote TES chemisorption and Si–H bond dissociation, and improve catalytic activity, which are corroborated by the DFT calculations. This finding enhances the insight of MSI and offers an easy method to prepare efficient heterogeneous catalysts for industrial hydrosilylation reactions.

In recent years, the synthesis of inorganic materials and their morphology–property relationships have emerged as prominent research topics in the field of materials chemistry. This study employed a hydrothermal method to synthesize γ-AlOOH nanorods and nanosheets, which were subsequently coated onto Celgard 2325 separators. The effects of different morphologies of γ-AlOOH coatings on separator performance were analyzed comparatively. Compared to the Celgard 2325 separator, the γ-AlOOH-coated separator exhibited enhanced properties, with the Celgard 2325-nanorod separator demonstrating the best results, achieving an electrolyte uptake of 190.8%, a thermal shrinkage rate of only 1.7% at 160 °C, and an ionic conductivity of 0.75 mS cm−1. The assembled battery maintained a discharge specific capacity of 107.8 mA h g−1 at a rate of 5C, and after 300 cycles at 1C, the capacity retention was 79.6%, significantly outperforming the Celgard 2325 separator (66.1%) and the Celgard 2325-nanosheet separator (71.4%). These results elucidate the mechanism by which the γ-AlOOH morphology regulates the structural and electrochemical properties of composite separators, offering valuable insight for the design of next-generation, high-performance lithium-ion battery separators.

Selective catalytic conversion of carbohydrates to 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) is a critical approach to the biorefinery. In this work, solid acid catalysts of γ-AlOOH and CeO2@B2O3 were used to convert carbohydrates to EMF in a one-pot process, performed in an ethanol/DMSO solvent system. The synergistic effect of γ-AlOOH and CeO2@B2O3 was studied. Furthermore, the morpho-structural properties of the catalysts were characterized, and the effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, catalyst load, and the amount of cosolvent on the conversion of glucose to EMF were examined and optimized. Under the reaction conditions of 170 °C for 20 h, glucose, sucrose, cellobiose, inulin and starch were used as raw materials, and the EMF yield range was 9.2–27.7%. The results showed that the synergistic effect of γ-AlOOH and CeO2@B2O3 further causes the combination of multiple acid sites with different types and strength distributions. Particularly, the collaboration between weak, medium-strong, and strong acid, as well as between Lewis and Brønsted acidity, is of great significance for EMF generation. The reusability experiments showed that the combined catalytic system was easily separated and maintained catalytic activity for five successive reactions without further intermediate regeneration steps. This work provides a promising route for the catalytic conversion of biomass-derived carbohydrates into EMF.
