In this study, Fe-Mn co-embed sodium alginate carbon spheres (Fe-Mn/SA-C) were prepared as a cost-effective adsorbent for aqueous Cd(II) removal by a facile pyrolysis method. The morphology and chemical composition of Fe-Mn/SA-C were explored with various characterized techniques. The results indicate that Fe-Mn/SA-C possess porous structures and abundant oxide-based functional groups. Fe-Mn/SA-C exhibits excellent adsorption properties for aqueous Cd(II) and the adsorption process is pH-dependent. The adsorption data could fit pseudo second-order and Langmuir models well, suggesting that chemisorption is a dominant adsorption mechanism and the maximum adsorption capacity is 280.11 mg −1 . Thermodynamic analysis demonstrates that the adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption mechanisms of Cd(II) include the complexation of Cd(II) with oxygen-based functional groups, precipitation, and ion exchange. Finally, the granulated and magnetic Fe-Mn/SA-C is an efficient and practical adsorbent for cadmium-containing wastewater treatment.

The solid solution of Ba 3 Al 2- x Mn x O 6+ y (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) is successfully synthesized through solid state reaction. The colors of compounds are tuned from sky blue ( x ≤ 0.1) to ocean blue ( x = 0.2) with the increase of Mn content. The X-ray diffraction data shows that the major phase of all the as-synthesized samples is cubic Ba 3 Al 2 O 6 structure with the space group of P 2 1 3. The oxidation state of Mn is confirmed to be +5 by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy demonstrates that the sample's color comes from the d - d transition of Mn 5+ located in [AlO 4 ].

The hybrid material of Mn-doped molybdenum disulfide/reduced graphene oxide (Mn-MoS 2 /rGO) is successfully fabricated through a one-pot hydrothermal method . The hybrid material, evaluated as electrochemical catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), exhibits improved catalytic activity and good stability for the HER in acidic medium with small overpotential (approximately 110 mV). Through analyses, it can be concluded that the improvement for electrochemical HER performance of the hybrid catalyst is ascribed not only to high conductivity mainly from reduced graphene oxide, but also to fundamental catalytic activity enhancement generated by Mn ions doping into the S-edge of MoS 2 with a portion of Mo ions replacement. These results verify the facilitation effect of Mn-doping on HER activities, and the Mn-MoS 2 /rGO hybrid prepared in this work could be employed as a promising alternative to noble metal catalysts in HER.

Selective catalytic reduction of NO using CO (CO-SCR) is a promising technology for the purification of NO in the flue gas. However, the presence of O 2 significantly inhibits the activity of the CO-SCR catalyst. Herein, we synthesize a hollow Mn-doped CeO 2 @Co 3 O 4 catalyst (Mn-CeO 2 @Co 3 O 4 ), which achieved 82% NO conversion, 100% CO conversion, and 78% N 2 selectivity under 5 vol% O 2 at 200 °C, superior to those of CeO 2 @Co 3 O 4 and Co 3 O 4 @CeO 2 catalysts. The characterization results indicate that the strong electronic interaction at the heterointerfaces between Co 3 O 4 and CeO 2 plays a crucial role in promoting selective adsorption of NO. Furthermore, the Mn doping into the Co 3 O 4 lattice of the catalyst facilitates the conversion of N 2 O intermediates, thereby enhancing the overall activity. This research provides a new strategy for the design and synthesis of CO-SCR catalysts.

Developing structurally well-defined targeted drugs is an effective way to enhance the chemotherapy efficacy. Herein, a target mitochondrial complex I (complex I) inhibitor was developed for the key methylation site ARG-85 in the key subunit NDUFS2. Based on the unique :NH═C– group of guanidyl and the surrounding environment of ARG-85, the macrocyclic and bulky manganese porphyrin complex [MnIII(TTPPC2–)]+ was selected to insert into the gap of NDUFS2. Experimental and computational analyses revealed that the planar π system of the TTPPC2– ligand and the rotatable benzene ring stably bind between the :NH═C– group of ARG-85 and the manganese metal center, a medium-strong Lewis acid. The Mn-specific recognition of guanidine drives the selective inhibition of complex I activity. Further, MnIII(TTPPC2–)]+ was modified into targeted nanoformulation Mn NPs. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed the efficient and mechanism inhibition of complex I activity, offering a novel strategy for targeted drug development.

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER), as the core half-reaction in water electrolysis (WE), plays a decisive role in determining the overall efficiency of hydrogen production. Cobalt carbonate hydroxide (CoCH) has recently emerged as a attractive material for alkaline OER due to its robust structural stability. In this study, urchin-like CoCH was employed as a precursor template to synthesize Fe and Mn co-modified CoCH catalyst on nickel foam (NF) through Mn-doping and surface Fe-modification strategies (recorded as Fe,Mn-CoCH/NF). This optimized hierarchical structure enhanced the exposure of active sites and facilitated faster electron/mass transport paths. The incorporation of Fe and Mn effectively regulated the position of d-band center and facilitated a more efficient lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM) for OER, thereby enhancing the intrinsic activity of the catalyst. Compared to the unmodified CoCH/NF, the Fe,Mn-CoCH/NF exhibited significantly improved OER catalytic activity, characterized by a substantially reduced overpotential (204 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ) in alkaline electrolyte, alongside remarkable stability. Utilizing this catalyst, an overall water splitting (OWS) system was further developed, capable of driving efficient OWS at a low cell voltage (1.49 V at 10 mA cm −2 ). Furthermore, the unique hierarchical structure of Fe,Mn-CoCH/NF contributed to mitigating electrochemical corrosion and the toxic effects of Cl − during seawater electrolysis, enabling the catalyst to maintain excellent catalytic activity and stability even in alkaline seawater system.

Mn-doped spinel oxides CoAl 2 O 4 marked as CMA-m (m = Co/Mn atom ratio) herein were synthesized and evaluated for the first time as supports of Co-based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) catalysts. HAADF-STEM images showed that Mn doping caused more crystal defects on the surface of CMA-m grains, which may provide more attachment sites for cobalt loading, leading to much smaller Co 0 particle size of 15Co/CMA-m than that of 15Co/CoAl 2 O 4 . Data of H 2 /CO chemisorption showed that the interaction of highly dispersed Co 0 with lattice Mn-doped CMA-m grain has a promotive effect on CO adsorption capability. FTS evaluation results demonstrate that 15Co/CMA-20 showed the highest CO conversion, C 5+ selectivity and C 5+ STY, benefiting from its high Co 0 dispersion and CO chemisorption capability as a result of suitable Mn doping into the lattice of CoAl 2 O 4 , which was confirmed very different from the influence of impregnated Mn oxide over CoAl 2 O 4 .

Restricted by an insufficient understanding of the compositional and structural characteristics of the sensing materials that affect the sensing performances, the YSZ-based CO gas sensor remains in a dilemma in terms of further promoting sensitivity, selectivity and long-term stability. In this work, two bimetallic oxides with different crystal structures, perovskite SmMnO 3 and mullite SmMn 2 O 5 , were prepared and adopted to elucidate the roles of the Mn 3+ , Mn 4+ and surface oxygen vacancies . Compared with SmMnO 3 , the coexisting coordination modes of Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ in SmMn 2 O 5 is conducive to generating oxygen vacancies. Furthermore, a SmMn 2 O 5 -based sensor with more oxygen vacancies demonstrates a relatively faster response/recovery speed and enhanced sensitivity of 2.05 times that of SmMnO 3 under the same operation conditions. Such work may broaden insight into the development of efficient sensing materials that introduce oxygen vacancies through the construction of phase structures without complicated operations. Overall, the sensor attached to SmMn 2 O 5 exhibits a low detection limit (5 ppm), a feasible response/recovery speed (24 s/28 s toward 40 ppm CO operating at 450 °C), satisfactory CO selectivity and long-term stability, highlighting its potential for CO monitoring in harsh environments.

Bismuth ferrite is an important material in ferroelectric photovoltaic field, because of its narrow band gap and large polarization. Doping is a common method to further improve the photovoltaic properties of bismuth ferrite. Mn-doped bismuth ferrite thin films were prepared by sol-gel method. The effects of manganese on the crystal structure, ferroelectric and photovoltaic properties have been investigated. The result indicates that Mn-doped bismuth ferrite thin films are single phase and the lattice constant increases with the increase of manganese content. As manganese content increases, the remnant polarization and coercive electric field increase, while the short circuit photocurrent density and power conversion efficiency decrease. The open circuit photovoltage increases first and reaches the maximum and then decreases as manganese content increases. The results indicate that enhanced ferroelectricity caused by addition of manganese doesn’t make improvement on the photovoltaic characteristic.

Crystal data refinement results by Rietveld method showed that the symmetry space group is Pbcn.The lattice parameters of Li2Mn0.1Ti1.9(PO4)3 are a = 11.9372 Å, b = 8.5409 Å, c = 8.5979 Å, α = β = γ = 90°, V = 876.59 Å3 and Z = 4). Rietveld refinement was performed, and the confidence factors are Rwp = 11.79%, Rp = 9.14%, and χ2 = 1.425. It was exhibited that LMTP0.1/CA-700 material has good crystallinity. Testing the cells with LAND test procedure (200 mA/g current density for 200 cycles), the LMTP0.1/CA-700 material has a discharge specific capacity of about 65 mAh/g. The capacity decayed by only 3% during the cycle. It has some potential application values as cathode of lithium ion battery in the future.

Zn-Mn alloys are particularly promising biodegradable implant materials, but they are plagued by poor mechanical performance. In this work, a Zn-Mn alloy with ultrahigh strength and excellent ductility was achieved through addition of trace Mg (0.1 wt%) and equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). Specifically, the ECAP processed Zn-0.5Mn-0.1 Mg alloy exhibits an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 428 MPa, which is highest ever achieved in Zn-Mn-based alloys, along with a good elongation (EL) of 39%. In addition, the alloy exhibits excellent antibacterial performance against Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and Escherichia coli ( E. coli ). Trace Mg addition results in the formation of Mg 2 Zn 11 and MgZn 2 nano-precipitates in the alloy, which effectively pins grain growth during dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and postpones the inverse Hall–Petch relation. Consequently, the alloy possesses quite fine grains of an average grain size (AGS) of 0.71 μm, much smaller than that of its counterpart without Mg (AGS = 2.54 μm). The ultrahigh strength of the alloy is mainly ascribed to grain boundary strengthening and precipitation strengthening. The remarkable ductility of the alloy is related to deformation twinning suppression, pyramidal < c + a > slip activation, and low dislocation density.

To mitigate interconnect corrosion in seawater-fed solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs), Mn 1.5 Co 1.5 O 4 spinel coatings were deposited on Fe-22Cr stainless steel. At 750 °C, the coated interconnects exhibited an area-specific resistance (ASR) of 31.8 mΩ cm 2 after 4835 h of oxidation in air, with a parabolic rate constant of 3.0 × 10 −5 mg 2 cm −4 h −1 . Following exposure to seawater vapor for 500 h, the ASR reached 3.36 mΩ cm 2 , with a predicted value of 9.80 mΩ cm 2 at 5000 h. These findings underscore the coating’s improved oxidation resistance under dual-atmosphere conditions. Furthermore, a three-cells stack demonstrated high stability with a low degradation rate of 1.04 × 10 −5 h −1 at 100 mA cm −2 for 100 h. Post-test analysis confirmed a crack-free structure with negligible additional resistance, indicating that the spinel coating satisfies the engineering requirements for durable, direct seawater electrolysis and provides a scalable pathway for green hydrogen production.
