Zn-salt poly(styrene– ran –cinnamic acid) (SCA–Zn) ionomers were successfully synthesized via the melt neutralization of poly(styrene– ran –cinnamic acid) (SCA), which has a comparable molecular weight ( = 217,000) to commercial polystyrene (PS), with different mass fractions of ZnO (0.62, 1.6, and 3.9 wt.%) and the successful synthesis was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The mechanical properties, heat resistance, and processibility of the PS, SCA, and SCA–Zn samples were characterized. Compared to SCA, the three SCA–Zn ionomers exhibited significantly higher α cN values, with the ionomers containing 1.6 and 3.9 wt.% ZnO were 11.4% and 68.6% higher than that of SCA, respectively. Compared to commercial PS, SCA–Zn also exhibited significant improvements in heat resistance (glass transition temperature and vicat softening temperature both improved by about 20 °C) and impact toughness ( α cN values of the ionomers containing 1.6 and 3.9 wt.% ZnO were 69.6% and 156.5% higher than that of PS), while the processability of SCA–Zn was not significantly worse than that of PS. This method efficiently improves both the toughness and heat resistance of PS, providing an efficient way to expand the market application of styrenic resins.

Highly luminescent AgInS 2 –ZnS quantum dots were obtained by a one-pot two steps hot injection approach. The effect of the reaction time on the properties of the quantum dot was systematically investigated. By the introduction of Zn ions , the emission peak was blue-shift from 638 nm to 584 nm in 15 min, while the emission peaks of the obtained AgInS 2 –ZnS quantum dots were tuned in a narrow range with a bit red-shift from 584 to 589 nm as the reaction was continued. The highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) was up to about 72% when the reaction was prolonged to 15 min. Further, results showed that the morphologies were varied as the reaction was continued. In addition, the PL decay curves demonstrated that the component of PL bands resulted from Zn doping was observed, while the PL behavior was originated from the donor-acceptor recombination.

Polyamide membrane, fabricated via interfacial polymerization process, is a typical class of facilitated transport membrane for CO 2 separation with amino groups serving as reactive CO 2 carriers. Herein, to further enhance the CO 2 -facilitated transport effect of polyamide membrane, Zn(NO 3 ) 2 is directly introduced into aqueous triethylenetetramine phase for constructing Zn-N coordination polyamide membrane taking advantage of the coordination interaction between Zn ions and amino groups from triethylenetetramine. The good solubility of Zn(NO 3 ) 2 in aqueous amine solution and moderate coordinative ability of Zn ions are beneficial to a uniform distribution of Zn in polyamide layer. The coordination of N from triethylenetetramine monomer to Zn ion centre produces more tertiary amino groups and free amino groups with stronger affinity to CO 2 in Zn-N coordination membrane for enhancing the facilitated transport effect. Additionally, the Zn-N coordination interaction generates smoother surface of membranes when sufficient Zn ions are introduced. The membrane with 0.1 wt% of Zn ions in aqueous phase exhibits the highest CO 2 /N 2 and CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 106.7 and 55.2, which increase, respectively, by 75.2% and 99.3% without compromising CO 2 permeance in contrast with pristine polyamide membrane.

The toxicity of environmental pollutants is often manifested through metabolic disruptions and damage to detoxification organs. However, current understanding is insufficient to explain the physiological response mechanisms of metabolically abnormal fish exposed to secondary pollutants in complex natural environments. This study established a fish model with non-alcoholic fatty liver to evaluate the effects of Zn oxide nanoparticles (nZnO) and Zn²⁺ on physiological metabolism using untargeted lipidomics and bioimaging techniques. Nile red and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining indicated that increased Zn levels reduced the number of lipid droplets (LDs) and hepatocyte vacuolization in the livers of groupers. Non-targeted lipidomics, employing an unsupervised K-means clustering algorithm, identified key lipid profiles that differentiated the effects of nZnO and Zn, including TG (16:0/16:1/18:1), PC (18:2/22:6), TG (18:2/18:2/22:6), SM (d18:1/24:1), and TG (16:1/18:1/18:2). The increased content of SM (d18:1/24:0) indicated that fish liver cells internalized nZnO via lipid raft structures on the cell membrane, a process distinct from Zn ion uptake. Moreover, nZnO/Zn treatments significantly activated lipolysis regulation in fish liver experiencing oxidative stress. This study contributed to the use of non-targeted lipidomics to identify differential biomarkers of nZnO and Zn, as well as their compensatory mechanisms in metabolically abnormal fish. These findings provide novel insights into the effects of nanometal exposure on aquatic animal health in complex environments.

The I-III-VI QDs Ag-In-S (AIS) exhibits excellent properties in photocatalysis because of the adjustable band gap, wide light absorption range, and multiple active sites. Introducing homologous or heterogeneous ions not only derives the composition into quaternary/ quinary quantum dots but also generates new sulfide QDs to form composites, which is an effective strategy to promote photoactivity. In this work, we in-situ synthesized the AIS/ZIS (AgIn 5 S 8 /Zn 4 In 2 S 7 ) composite photocatalyst by introducing Zn 2+ and changing the reaction temperature. We found that the composite photocatalyst could efficiently photodegrade larger concentrations of RhB than that of the previous reports. The superior photocatalytic activity was due to the formation of the type I high-low junction, which could effectively separate carriers. The photoelectrons on the CB of AIS reacted with dissolved oxygen to produce strongly oxidative O 2 – , which degraded RhB into intermediates and eventually into CO 2 and H 2 O. This work not only reports an excellent photocatalyst but also offers new ideas on the design and manufacture of highly efficient high-low junction photocatalysts.

Zn electrodeposition mechanism is a cornerstone of dendritic issue exploration in Zn-ion battery. Investigation of the inherent early-stage Zn plating kinetics and its dependence on the reactivity of anode-electrolyte interphase is crucial. Herein, the kinetic evolution of Zn plating on three characteristic substrates is quantified: fresh Zn, commercial Zn foil, and Zn foil with spontaneously generated solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI). Using scanning electrochemical microscopy analysis, the original interphase regulation of Zn deposit orientation and the competitive reaction between Zn deposition and SEI passivation are studied in situ. Furthermore, the SEI layer can suppress the dendrite growth at initial state by guiding the horizontal alignment of Zn flakes and promote Zn plating process. This approach provided a feasible consideration into interphase engineering of various metal anodes.
