We developed a three-dimensional (3D) polymer-brush substrate for protein and peptide microarray fabrication, and this substrate was facilely prepared by copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) monomers via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) on a glass slide. The performance of obtained poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (P(GMA-HEMA)) brush substrate was assessed by binding of human IgG with rabbit antihuman IgG antibodies on a protein microarray and by the determination of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activities on a peptide microarray. The P(GMA-HEMA) brush substrate exhibited higher immobilization capacities for proteins and peptides than those of a two-dimensional (2D) planar epoxy slide. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the P(GMA-HEMA) brush-based microarray on rabbit antihuman IgG antibody detection was much higher than that of its 2D counterpart. The enzyme activities of MMPs were determined specifically with a low detection limit of 6.0 pg mL–1 for MMP-2 and 5.7 pg mL–1 for MMP-9. By taking advantage of the biocompatibility of PHEMA, the P(GMA-HEMA) brush-based peptide microarray was also employed to evaluate the secretion of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by cells cultured off the chip or directly on the chip, and satisfactory results were obtained.

Poly (diethyl vinylphosphonate-co-2-chloroethyl methacrylate) (P(DEVP-co-CEMA)) copolymers are synthesized by free radical copolymerization initiated by benzoyl peroxide. The reactivity ratios for the free radical copolymerization of CEMA (M1) and DEVP (M2) are r1 = 19.45 and r2 = 0.11, respectively. The desired amphiphilic copolymers with relatively low polydispersity index (PDI) and different DEVP contents are isolated and purified from the reaction mixtures through precipitation fractionation. The structures and molecular characteristics of the obtained products are characterized by 1H NMR, FTIR, and SEC analysis. All of these fractionated copolymers have a unimodal distribution and moderate PDI. The thermal properties of the P(DEVP-co-CEMA) copolymers are investigated by TGA and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. Single glass transition temperature (Tg) appears in the DSC profiles differing from the existence of two Tgs in the blend of poly (diethyl vinylphosphonate) and poly (2-chloroethyl methacrylate), which indicates the random structure of the copolymers. The MALDI–ToF mass analysis further reveals that DEVP and CEMA units are randomly distributed in the copolymer chains. The self-assembly behavior of the P(DEVP-co-CEMA) copolymers in aqueous solution is preliminarily investigated.

Controlled phase evolution in catalytic architecture design remains challenging for selective CO2-to-formate conversion using non-precious metals. We present a sequential plasma-electrochemical strategy converting BiOCl precursors into nanoporous Bi networks. Plasma treatment of BiCl3-C yields metastable BiOCl with atomic disorder and mesopores; subsequent electrochemical activation reconstructs it into interconnected Bi nanoporous structures (20-50 nm pores) for efficient CO2 reduction. The catalyst affords 93.4% formate Faradaic efficiency at 300 mA cm -2 , >90% selectivity over 100-500 mA cm -2 , and only 3.2% FE loss in 10 h-outperforming thermal Bi catalysts by ~13.3 points in retention. Operando spectroscopy and simulations show plasma-induced lattice distortions lower the reconstruction barrier, creating electric field-enhanced porous Bi that concentrates K + and stabilizes *OCHO -, promoting formate while suppressing HER. This work establishes a paradigm for metastable electrocatalyst design via coupled non-equilibrium synthesis and electrochemical reconstruction, enabling scalable CO2 conversion at industrially relevant currents.2

Stimuli-responsive polymeric nanogels hold great potential in biological applications. In this work, thermoresponsive polymeric nanogels were conveniently prepared through inverse miniemulsion polymerization of two monomers with a good biocompatibility, N -vinylcaprolactam and 2-methoxyethyl acrylate. A macromolecular crosslinker, poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (PEGDMA), was used to achieve a better thermoresponsiveness, compared with low-molecular-weight crosslinkers. The prepared poly( N -vinylcaprolactam- co -2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (poly(NVCL- co -MEA)) nanogels could be well redispersed in aqueous systems, displaying a reversible thermoresponsive transition behavior. The influences of the synthesis parameters including the emulsifier content, PEGDMA content, and monomer composition on the particle properties of poly(NVCL- co -MEA) nanogels both in inverse emulsions and in aqueous dispersions were systematically investigated. Furthermore, the impacts of the monomer composition and PEGDMA content on the thermoresponsiveness of poly(NVCL- co -MEA) nanogels were also studied. Promisingly, the introduction of MEA monomeric units to the copolymer chains only slightly reduced the thermoresponsiveness of poly(NVCL- co -MEA) nanogels. This feature allows to improve the biocompatibility of polymeric nanogels by using MEA as the comonomer without need to compromise the thermoresponsiveness of nanogels. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A series of new polymethylene- b -poly(styrene- co -2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA)) and polymethylene- b -poly(styrene- co -2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate- g -poly(ε-caprolactone)) (PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA- g -PCL)) copolymers were successfully synthesized via a strategy combined polyhomologation of ylides, reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and ring-opening polymerization (ROP). Firstly, a hydroxyl terminated polymethylene (PM-OH) was obtained via polyhomologation of ylides followed by oxidation. Then, PM-OH was transformed to a macromolecular chain transfer agent (PM-CTA). Subsequently, RAFT copolymerizations of styrene (St) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) were performed using PM-CTA as chain transfer agent, targeting the well-defined PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA) copolymers with controllable molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution. Finally, the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone was carried out using PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA) copolymer as initiator to achieve PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA- g -PCL) copolymer. The molecular weight and chain structure of the obtained copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Moreover, the fabrication of highly ordered porous films using the amphiphilic PM- b -P(St- co -HEMA) copolymers via a static breath-figure process was investigated.

A hollow zeolite encapsulated Rh catalyst Rh@H-S-1 with an “eggshell” structure was prepared using the method of organic alkali treatment and recrystallization. Compared with catalysts with directly encapsulated Rh@S-1 and surface impregnated Rh/S-1, this catalyst exhibited both superior activity and a higher TOF value in hydroformylation of 1-hexene due to the high dispersion of Rh and high diffusion. The Rh element did not need to be reduced in the preparation, and it was in situ reduced by the syngas. The content of lower valence Rh δ+ gradually increased with the reaction procedure and played as an active center. The low oxidized state Rh + or Rh δ+ in the form of Rh(CO) 2 are proposed as active sites in hydroformylation, which were generated under the synergistic effect between CO and H 2 . Importantly, the hollow encapsulated catalyst effectively decreased Rh leaching to 0.1 ppm and showed better stability compared with the impregnated Rh/S-1 catalyst.

Partial neutralization is typically used to remove Fe 3+ ions from the acid leach solution of laterite. However, during this process, significant amounts of Mg 2+ , Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , and SO 2– 4 are lost. With increasing initial Fe 3+ concentration and solution pH, the severity of loss increases, with the precipitation of Fe 3+ . In this study, the mechanisms of ion co-precipitation during partial neutralization were investigated. Based on density functional theory calculations, a precipitation pathway through the formation of [Fe 4 (OH − ) 2 (SO 2– 4) 4 ]•[2SO 2 – 4 •yH 2 O]•[M 2+ ] was proposed. The differential charge density diagram indicated that the O atoms acted as the charge acceptors and maintained the precipitate structure. The coordination between M 2+ and SO 2– 4 could be destroyed via intense agitation, releasing approximately 100% of Mg 2+ , Ni 2+ , and Co 2+ ions from the precipitates to the solution. Furthermore, the addition of cationic or anionic surfactants limited the formation of these coordination bonds. The highest retention percentages of Mg 2+ , Ni 2+ , and Co 2+ in solution were 99.4, 99.6, and 99.9%, respectively, after adding 2 × 10 −5 mol/L of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (CTAB). In addition, a high temperature could break these coordination bonds. The retention percentages of Mg 2+ , Ni 2+ , and Co 2+ increased from 82.6, 85.2, and 86.5% to 99.9, 99.6, and 99.8%, respectively, as the temperature increased from 25 to 65 °C. These results confirmed the rationality of the proposed structure of the precipitate.

Atmospheric CO 2 concentrations are increasing rapidly, posing severe environmental challenges. Hydrogenation of CO 2 to methanol represents a promising strategy to reduce the content of CO 2 . While Cu-based catalysts have garnered significant attention, there are still problems such as low selectivity for methanol and poor stability. In this study, a highly dispersed Cu/ZnO-ZrO 2 catalyst was synthesized via a formamide-assisted co-precipitation method. Investigation of the ZrO 2 loading revealed that the Cu/ZnO-25%ZrO 2 catalyst exhibited optimal performance for CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol, achieving a CO 2 conversion of 6.7%, methanol selectivity of 85%, and a methanol space-time yield (STY) of 586.5 g MeOH •kg cat -1 •h -1 . The results demonstrate a strong interaction between Cu and the ZnO-25%ZrO 2 support surface, which predominantly stabilizes Cu in the Cu + state. Notably, these Cu + species remain stable even after reduction and reaction. This interaction not only ensures high catalytic activity but also confers excellent stability to the catalyst, as evidenced by the absence of deactivation over a 200-hour stability test.

Cyclization reaction of poly(acrylonitrile-co-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid) [P(AN-co-AMPS)] copolymer during thermal oxidative stabilization (TOS) process was investigated by FTIR and two dimensional (2D) correlation analysis technique. The results showed the mechanism of cyclization reaction at different temperatures were varying. At 200 °C, the cyclization reactions generated by autocatalytic cyclization mechanism. While at higher temperatures, the cyclization reactions took place through ionic cyclization mechanism and free radical cyclization mechanism. The AMPS comonomer could reduce the heat release of cyclization reactions and improve the stability at 200 and 230 °C. At higher temperatures, the cyclization reactions were facilitated rapidly. However, the oxidation and degradation reactions were also intense, which will cause the molecular chain to break and defects in the final carbon fibers (CFs). This research has theoretical guiding significance for the optimization of heat treatment conditions for PAN copolymers used as CFs.

Developing efficient non-noble metal electrocatalysts is crucial for advancing the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in electrochemical water splitting. OER involves multi-step proton-coupled electron transfer, leading to intrinsically sluggish kinetics and elevated reaction overpotentials. Herein, a core-shell structured HC@Co-2 catalyst is synthesized via a sacrificial hard-template in situ hydrothermal strategy. Vertically aligned cobalt silicate nanosheets are uniformly grown on hollow carbon spheres, forming a well-defined hierarchical nanostructure. The as-prepared HC@Co-2 catalyst exhibits excellent OER performance. It delivers an overpotential of 377 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 in alkaline electrolyte. It also maintains stable OER activity over 108 h of continuous operation at the same current density with negligible activity decay. The outstanding catalytic performance benefits from its hierarchical nanostructure. The hollow carbon skeleton enhances electrical conductivity and promotes electrolyte diffusion. The vertical nanosheets facilitate mass transport. This work provides a feasible strategy for designing high-performance layered nanostructured OER electrocatalysts. Graphical Core-shell structured HC@Co-2 with vertical cobalt silicate nanosheets grown on hollow carbon spheres delivers 377 mV overpotential at 10 mA cm −2 and 108 h stable OER activity in alkaline electrolyte, and its hierarchical nanostructure effectively enhances electrical conductivity and mass transport.

Recently, an intense Raman peak at approximately 520–544 cm–1 (briefly named as *530 in this study) has been widely observed and discussed during in situ spectroscopic studies of electrochemical CO2 or CO reduction reaction (CO(2)RR). Several mechanisms were proposed to explain the nature of this peak, most notably attributing it to Cu–OHad or CuOx(OH)y, which was then utilized as a key spectroscopic indicator in various mechanistic discussions. Herein, by systematic isotopic-labeled spectroscopic studies, we show that the nature of the *530 peak may not be the previously proposed species, but more likely a surface species containing (C, O) in equilibrium with inert bridging-type adsorbed CO (*CObridge). Both the formation of *530 and *CObridge is shown to be associated with the spontaneous reconstruction of Cu. The *CObridge and *530 Raman modes share the same adsorption sites and can interconvert into each other via the variation of electrochemical potentials. Finally, the appearance of both peaks is shown to signalize a deteriorated C2+ products performance of CO2RR and CORR. These results update the current understandings of the role of *530 for CO(2)RR. It also highlights that the emerging-recognized electrocatalyst reconstruction phenomenon can be accompanied by the formation of diverse surface adsorbates, casting challenges, and necessitating rigorous spectroscopic studies for better mechanistic understanding.

Thermochromic smart windows represent an efficient technology for building energy conservation. The ideal thermochromic smart window should possess high optical transmittance, strong solar modulation ability, rapid thermal response, and appropriate lower critical solution temperature. In this study, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was introduced into the polymer chains of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) to synthesize composite hydrogels, which were subsequently applied to smart window systems. The resulting composite hydrogels exhibited good optical properties, with a solar transmittance (Tsol) of up to 93.89% before phase transition and a solar modulation ability (ΔTsol) of 88.38%. The incorporation of HEMA reduced the response time of the hydrogel from 59 to 39.3 s, representing an acceleration of approximately 33.4%. Meanwhile, the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds from HEMA enhanced the stability of the polymeric network, increasing the Young’s modulus from 6 × 10–4 to 1.05 × 10–3 Pa, approximately a 1.75-fold improvement. After 100 heating–cooling cycles, the composite hydrogels maintained stable optical performance. These enhancements clearly demonstrate the great potential of this hydrogel for applications in smart window technologies.
