To explore novel nano-scintillator with a controllable architecture, pure and Eu 3+ doped lutetium oxyfluoride (Lu 7 O 6 F 9 ) powder were synthesized by combining mild hydrothermal method and solid state calcination approach. The products were all pure orthorhombic Vernier phase demonstrated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The detailed crystal structure was also studied by Reitveld refinement. Lath-like microcrys tals composed of nanoparticles with unique hollow tube of the products were supported by the images of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Excited by X-ray with W as the target, the pure product showed intense broad emission with the peak at about 400 nm suitable for modern photoelectric multiplier tube (PMT), while the Eu 3+ doped sample transferred the incident energy to Eu 3+ ions and gave strong 5 D 0 → 7 F j ( j =0, 1, 2 and 4) emission, which fitted for imaging and labeling measurements. From the luminescent properties, both pure and Eu 3+ -doped products are potential excellent scintillator for X-ray imaging and other high energy detectors, and the pure product is also a good host candidate for rare earth doping.

Tantalum carbide ceramics with an overall composition of TaC 0.6 were prepared by hot pressing at 1700 °C for 1 h under 30 MPa pressure with fcc TaC and bcc Ta powder as starting materials. Effects of adding 0–30 mol% Cu on densification, phase formation, microstructural evolution , mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the obtained composite ceramics were investigated. Full density could be reached at 20 mol% Cu addition and above. Reactions between TaC and Ta resulted in the final phases of hexagonal Ta 2 C and rhombohedral ζ-Ta 4 C 3-x . Plate-shaped ζ laminate grew in both TaC and Ta 2 C and consequently had their sizes confined by the parental grains. Addition of 20–30 mol% Cu could significantly grow the intermediate Ta 2 C grains, hence controlling length of the ζ laminates precipitated in them to form bimodal microstructures consisting of large grains. The 20 mol% Cu composition had a better flexural strength (706 ± 46 MPa) and fracture toughness (9.2 ± 1.7 MPa m 1/2 ). Electrical resistivity at room temperature of the composites decreased with Cu content from 1.03 μΩ m at 0 mol% addition to 0.12 μΩ m at 30 mol% Cu.

Realization of long-term stable lasing from all-inorganic perovskite supercrystals is highly desirable for practical applications in optoelectronic devices. However, lasing from perovskite supercrystals excited by continuous wave laser light remains a challenge due to the photoluminescence degradation induced by thermal accumulation. Here, we report highly stable lasing with low threshold fom a CsPbClBr 2 supercrystal placed on a thin Ag film, which form a CsPbClBr 2 /Ag microcavity, by managing the thermal distribution inside the CsPbClBr 2 supercrystal. Combined numerical simulations and lifetime measurements, the localized electric field in such a hybrid microcavity leads to a spatially localized temperature distribution, which plays a crucial role in suppressing the thermal accumulation on the surface and in eliminating non-radiative recombination defects. The effective thermal management in the hybrid microcavity renders highly stable lasing with low threshold under the irradiation of continuouw wave laser light. Our findings provide a feasible and universal approach to the development of long-term stable perovskite laser.

Cr 3+ is an ideal activator for near-infrared phosphor. Cr 3+ ions have an electronic structure in which the outermost shell is not fully filled, which makes the emission of Cr 3+ susceptible to the crystal field environment and the change of local structural. Therefore, when Zn 2+ -Ti 4+ ion pairs are replaced with Al 3+ -Al 3+ /Ga 3+ -Ga 3+ ion pairs , changes in the crystal structure and the crystal field are strengthened, which improves the luminescence performances of Zn 2 TiO 4 :Cr 3+ phosphors. The thermal stability and the intensity of the luminescence can be clearly seen to have increased.

Silver nanowire has potential applications on transparent conducting film and electrode of electrochemical capacitor due to its excellent conductivity. Transparent conducting film (G-film) was prepared by coating silver nanowires on glass substrate using Meyer rod method, which exhibited better performance than carbon nanotube and graphene. The conductivity of G-film can be improved by increasing sintering temperature. Electrode of electrochemical capacitor (I-film) was fabricated through the same method with G-film on indium tin oxide (ITO). CV curves of I-film under different scanning rates had obvious redox peaks, which indicated that I-film exhibited excellent electrochemical pseudocapacitance performance and good reversibility during charge/discharge process. In addition, the specific capacitance of I-film was measured by galvanostatic charge/discharge experiments, indicating that I-film exhibits high special capacitance and excellent electrochemical stability.

Waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) are an essential component in electronic waste (e-waste), and contain a number of valuable metals (e.g., Cu, Sn) as well as non-metal resources (e.g., brominated epoxy resin). Currently, most of the non-metals are disposed of in landfills, causing environmental problems. In this study, a combination of pyrolysis and physical separation is proposed to recover valuable resources, including both metals and non-metals, from WPCBs. The WPCBs were pyrolyzed at 700°C under a nitrogen atmosphere. Pyrolysis oil and gas can be reused as fuel for the pyrolysis of WPCBs. Metals like copper, tin, and iron in the pyrolysis residues were separated by selective crushing, sieving, gravity separation, and magnetic separation. Finally, rich copper (Cu 82.21%, Sn 1.47%), rich tin (Cu 53.20%, Sn 13.43%), rich iron (Fe > 63%), and non-metal products were obtained, and the total recoveries of copper, tin, and iron were 95%, 86%, and 76%, respectively.

Waste activated sludge (WAS), containing biological pathogens, chemical elements and high moisture (>99%), was generated continually from municipal sewage treatment plants. Sludge dewatering could diminish the volume of WAS and control the diffusion of environmental pollution efficiently. In this study, tannic acid (TA), as a plant-derived phenolic compound, was investigated for improving WAS dewaterability at different temperatures. Apparently, the WAS dewaterability was enhanced by TA conditioning in the range of 25–55 °C, but further increase in temperature did not significantly affect the dewatering. With the TA addition of 0.15 mmol/gTS (total solid) at 55 °C, the WAS dewaterability was improved by 84.5% decrease in capillary suction time (CST), 96.5% decrease in specific resistance of filtration (SRF), and 19.9% decrease in water content (Wc) of dewatered sludge cake. TA facilitated removing supernatant viscosity and protein of sludge EPS (extracellular polymeric substances), specifically with 88.9% and 75.0% protein removal of slime EPS (S-EPS) and loosely bound EPS (LB-EPS). Thermodynamics modeling revealed that the improved dewaterability was dominantly attributed to the hydrophobic bonding between TA and EPS proteins, which was strengthened with the increase in temperature. However, when the conditioning temperature exceeded 55 °C, thermal effect took place and accelerated the release of biopolymers into EPS and hence, counteracted the beneficial effect of TA conditioning to further improve WAS dewatering. The results offered not only the dewatering effectiveness and mechanism of TA conditioning, but also a potential approach of applying plant waste to treat WAS for the high dewaterability.

Artificial muscles have attracted great attention as actuators and coiled and twisted monofilament actuators are considered the most promising ones. In the present work, the torsional properties of poly(hexamethylene adipamide) (PA66), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and high-strength PET (HTPET) monofilaments were investigated. Furthermore, cross-linked PET (CPET) monofilaments were melt-spun by adding 1 wt% of 2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (ultraviolet (UV) initiator) and triallyl iso-cyanurate (cross-linking agent) in PET chips under UV radiation. The HTPET monofilaments had the highest torsional modulus of 1.1 GPa followed by the PET (0.8 GPa) and PA66 (0.6 GPa) monofilaments. Subsequently, the HTPET monofilaments were subjected to heat treatments under tension. When the heat treatment time was 10 min, the mechanical properties of the HTPET monofilaments also tended to first increase and then decrease with the rise of heat treatment temperature. The molecular arrangement and crystal structure of the HTPET monofilaments were gradually improved with the prolongation of tension heat treatment. The tensile strength and initial modulus of the HTPET monofilaments were 871.4 MPa and 15.8 GPa, respectively. The mechanical properties of the CPET monofilaments first increased and then decreased with the increase of the drawing ratio. When the drawing ratio was 10, the CPET monofilament had a tensile strength of 717.2 MPa, an initial modulus of 16.7 GPa, and a maximum torsional modulus of 1.3 GPa. Therefore, both heat treatment and cross-linking increased the mechanical strength of the PET monofilaments. CPET and HTPET are possible to be used as artificial muscles.

Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films have been synthesized using the sol-gel spin coating . Influences of post-annealing temperatures on crystal structure, morphology, negative thermal expansion (NTE) and optical performances of the thin films were studied using XRD , SEM, XPS, high-temperature XRD and UV–Vis–NIR spectrophotometer. XRD and SEM results show that as-prepared thin film is in an amorphous state with a smooth and dense surface. Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films were obtained after post-annealing in 550–750 °C. The higher the annealing temperature in 550–750 °C, the better the crystallinity of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films . In addition, the grain size of the In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin film also grows as the annealing temperature increases. The resulting orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films exhibit anisotropic NTE. Its volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is −3.44 × 10 −6 °C −1 , while the CTEs in a -, b - and c -axis directions are −4.70 × 10 −6 °C −1 , 5.37 × 10 −6 °C −1 , and -4.10 × 10 −6 °C −1 in 25–700 °C, respectively. In addition, the transmittance of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films post-annealed at 750 °C is around 87.75 %–95.03 %.

Synergic effects of rare earth-magnesium based hydrides (LaH 3 -MgH 2 ) on thermal dehydrogenation of potassium borohydride (KBH 4 ) are discussed in the paper. Comparing to above 675 K for the LaH 3 -MgH 2 or KBH 4 , the dehydrogenation temperature can be decreased to 346 K for the composites (LaH 3 -MgH 2 -KBH 4 ). The apparent activation energy of desorption process for the mixture is also greatly reduced. On the other hand, the products in the temperature programmed desorption process are also illustrated.

Electric arc furnace (EAF) dust is a hazardous waste material containing valuable elements, such as zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), as well as other environmentally harmful elements. In the conventional process, the existence of zinc ferrite (ZnFe 2 O 4 ) in EAF dust results in a low recovery ratio of zinc and can induce high energy consumption or difficulties utilizing iron resources. In this article, a hydrothermal reduction method in a NaOH system is proposed to recover Zn selectively from EAF dust. First, when pure ZnFe 2 O 4 was used as the input material to test the feasibility of the new method, 70% Zn leaching efficiencies and the isolation of Fe in the residue through the formation of ferroferric oxide (Fe 3 O 4 ) were achieved at the optimal conditions of 260 °C, 6 M [NaOH], 10 g/L [C 6 H 12 O 6 ] n and 50 mL/g of L/S. Second, a leaching process of EAF dust was proposed using the following two procedures: (i) first leaching under normal pressure to dissolve zinc oxide (ZnO); and (ii) second leaching of the first leach residue under hydrothermal reduction conditions to dissolve ZnFe 2 O 4 . The leach liquor from the second step was recycled to the first step. Under optimum conditions, the leaching efficiencies of Zn during the first and second leaching were 66.4% and 69.3%, respectively. The total Zn leaching efficiency was calculated to be 89.7%, producing Zn-impregnated leach solution and a leach residue rich in Fe (up to 39.4 wt%) that are suitable as resources for a steel-making plant. However, this process also has its shortcomings owning to larger liquid-solid ratio in the leaching process. Overall, the study technically provides an alternative approach to improve the recycling of zinc and iron and effectively reduce environmental risks from EAF dust.

Ferroelectric thin films with giant room-temperature electrocaloric effect (ECE) could be very useful in design of solid-state refrigeration devices. Here, lead-free Ba 0.85 Ca 0.15-x Sr x Zr 0.1 Ti 0.9 O 3 (BCZT-xSr, 0.01 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) thin films are successfully prepared on the substrates (Pt/Ti/SiO 2 /Si) via sol-gel route, and the effect of the Sr substitution on the structure, electric properties and ECE of the films were investigated. The dielectric analyses show that the rhombohedral-tetragonal phase transition temperature (T R-T ) move to a higher temperature and the tetragonal-cubic phase transition temperature (T m ) shift to a lower temperature with increasing Sr content, and finally the T R-T peaks merge into the T m peaks at room temperature. The BCZT-0.05Sr film presents a giant ECE with ΔT = 27.1 K and ΔS = 30.6 J K −1 kg −1 at 800 kV cm -1 near room temperature (301 K). The giant ΔT benefits from a multiphase coexisting region with successive R-T and T-C phase transition character near room temperature. These results indicate that the lead-free Sr-doped BCZT thin film is an attractive material for application in ECE refrigeration devices.
