Hydrochromic materials have received much attention in anticounterfeiting due to their reversible photoemission properties toward water. However, existing hydrochromic materials usually suffer from slow hydrochromic response and limited stability, repeatability, and color tunability. This paper found for the first time that CsPbBr 3 /Cs 4 PbBr 6 composites with quantum-limited domain effects had reversible hydrochromism. CsPbBr 3 /Cs 4 PbBr 6 composites were successfully synthesized in molecular sieve MCM-41 using an improved mechanochemical method. The composites underwent a reversible phase transition from Cs 4 PbBr 6 /CsPbBr 3 to CsPbBr 3 upon treatment with a trace amount of water, the photoluminescence colors underwent a change from blue to green, and reversion occurred due to heating. Mechanistic investigation revealed that quantum dots underwent soft agglomeration due to van der Waals forces in polar solvent environments, affecting the action of quantum domain-limiting effects. Therefore, organic solvents with different polarities can cause different degrees of reversible discoloration of the material. This study provides new ideas for understanding the phase transition and agglomeration of metal halide perovskite quantum dots in polar solvent environments. Additionally, it offered new options for aqueous color-changing materials and organic solvent polar detection materials.

The non-thermal plasma catalysis holds great promise for VOCs removal, and the development of catalysts with electronic metal-support interaction (EMSI) effect is beneficial for VOCs removal. In this study, we prepared three Mn@M catalysts with EMSI coordination structures by encapsulating MnO x particles within the mesoporous molecular sieve (MCM-41) with different pore size (2.9 nm, 4.4 nm, and 7.9 nm), and investigated the effect of pore size on EMSI and non-thermal plasma catalytic performance of Mn@M for toluene. Among three catalysts, Mn@M2 with an average pore size of 4.38 nm exhibited the strongest EMSI and superior redox capabilities, thus demonstrating the highest mineralization rate, carbon balance, and CO 2 selectivity for plasma catalytic oxidation of toluene. The EMSI effect leads to the formation of electron-rich and electron-poor centers on the Si-O-Mn-O bond, facilitating the generation of reactive oxygen species and enhancing the oxygen cycle. In addition, the reaction degradation pathway was investigated using in situ DRIFTS and GC–MS. This study provides valuable insights for designing highly effective supported catalysts by pore confinement to degrade VOCs in adsorption-plasma catalysis system.
