The loaded acid–base bifunctional catalysts exhibit good catalytic performance in the synthesis of methyl methacrylate via aldol condensation of methyl propionate with formaldehyde, but they still suffer from deactivation caused by coke deposition. In this paper, coke deposition as well as consequential deactivation behavior of Cs/SiO2 catalyst loaded with various amounts of Al was investigated under different reactant compositions by using nuclear magnetic resonance, thermogravimetric, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, and Raman analysis. As a result, coke on the catalyst was characterized by amorphous coke deposition, which was mainly composed of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and aliphatic substances. Al added to the 10Cs/SiO2 catalyst significantly reduced the amount of coke deposition and inhibited the C/H ratio of coke. Appropriate amounts of Al and reactant compositions could ultimately increase the stability of the catalyst. Moreover, the kinetics of coke deposition observed on the Al–Cs/SiO2 catalyst was studied. It was found that the Voorhies equation modified using the variables of reaction temperature and reactants composition could accurately forecast coke accumulation on the 3.5Al-10Cs/SiO2 catalyst under specific conditions.

I-III-VI alloyed quantum dots (QDs) have shown great application potential in many fields. At present, Al-based alloyed QDs have become a kind of ideal material of the color conversion layer of WLEDs because of their blue-emission, abundant raw material content, and the strong stability of Aluminum oxides. In this study, we synthesized blue-emitting CuAlSe 2 /ZnSe QDs and dual-emitting CuAlGaSe/ZnSe QDs by using hot-injection and one-pot method respectively, with a photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) of 46.75% and 68.79%. Their spectral tuning effect and the luminescence mechanism were investigated and discussed by changing the elemental molar ratios and nucleation temperature. By changing the Cu/(Al+Ga) and Al/Ga molar ratio, the emission wavelength of CuAlGaSe/ZnSe QDs was adjustable from 456 nm to 631 nm, with the Al and Ga competition mechanism in CuAlGaSe/ZnSe was also proposed. Finally, a single-component dual-emission CuAlGaSe/ZnSe WLED with a color rendering index (Ra) of 91.4 was prepared. This work demonstrated the superior fluorescence performance of multi-component QDs and the potential application of Al-based QDs in WLEDs.

Al/NH 4 CoF 3 - Φ ( Φ = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0) binary composites and Al-NH 4 CoF 3 @P(VDF-HFP) ternary composites are fabricated via ultrasonication-assisted blending and electrostatic spraying. The effect of equivalence ratio ( Φ ) on the reaction properties is systematically investigated in the binary Al/NH 4 CoF 3 system. For ternary systems, electrostatic spraying allows both components to be efficiently encapsulated by P(VDF-HFP) and to achieve structural stabilization and enhanced reactivity through synergistic interfacial interactions. Morphological analysis using SEM/TEM revealed that P(VDF-HFP) formed a protective layer on Al and NH 4 CoF 3 particles, improving dispersion, hydrophobicity (water contact angle increased by 80.5% compared to physically mixed composites) and corrosion resistance. Thermal decomposition of NH 4 CoF 3 occurred at 265 °C, releasing NH 3 and HF, which triggered exothermic reactions with Al. The ternary composites exhibited a narrowed main reaction temperature range and concentrated heat release, attributed to improved interfacial contact and polymer decomposition. Combustion tests demonstrated that Al-NH 4 CoF 3 @P(VDF-HFP) achieved self-sustaining combustion. In addition, a simple validation was done by replacing the Al component in the aluminium-containing propellant, demonstrating its potential application in the propellant field. This work establishes a novel strategy for designing stable, high-energy composites with potential applications in advanced propulsion systems.

This study investigated LDHs-MgAl preparation factors on Gly adsorption performance. The single-factor experiments shown that CO 3 2− -type LDHs-400-MgAl prepared under the condition of calcination temperature of 400 °C, calcination time of 3 h, Mg/Al molar ratio of 2:1, synthesis pH of 10, preparation temperature of 30 °C and aging temperature of 25 °C, had better Gly adsorption performance due to its enhanced crystallinity and hierarchical porosity. Moreover, the Gly adsorption process optimization with LDHs-400-MgAl via the response surface methodology (RSM) was studied. The relative error between the actual value and the predicted value obtained from the RSM model is 0.39 % and the determination coefficient (R 2 ) is 0.9987, which means the Gly adsorption process with LDHs-400-MgAl can be predicted by the proposed RSM model. This work integrates material synthesis optimization with process engineering, offering a scalable strategy for Gly removal in complex wastewater matrices.

Glass matrices with high waste load capacity, stability, and economic viability holds significant technological implications for efficient and safe nuclear waste immobilization. Aluminosilicate glasses with various Si/Al molar ratios were successfully prepared by incorporating Al 2 O 3 into natural granite, effectively enabling precise regulation of the Si/Al ratios and overcoming the challenge of achieving complete vitrification. Here, we report a glass waste form with ultra-high CeO 2 loading (up to 20 wt .%) that exhibits excellent structural stability. At a Si/Al molar ratio of 3:1, cerium can incorporate into the glass network by forming Ce-O bonds through coordination with oxygen atoms in the [AlO 6 ] units. [AlO 6 ] is converted to more stable [AlO 4 ], thereby enhancing the stability of the glass. Up to 20 wt .% CeO 2 (9.62 mol%) can be fully incorporated into the glass system, where approximately 79.71 % of the bridging oxygen atoms form stable Si-O-Si and [AlO 4 ] units, contributing to a structurally robust glass network. The Ce-O bond length in the glass matrix is shorter (2.27 Å) than in CeO 2 , confirming enhanced coordination stability and aligning with superior chemical durability and mechanical properties. This work highlights the critical role of the Si/Al molar ratio and establishes low-cost granite could serve as a viable host material for nuclear waste immobilization.

The rational design of high-performance adsorbents for lithium recovery from aqueous resources depends critically on understanding how metal doping modulates the structure and properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In this work, we systematically investigate the effects of Fe doping on the lithium adsorption and isotope separation performance of Al-MOFs through controlled synthesis of bimetallic Al/Fe-MOFs with varying metal ratios (1:4 to 4:1). The materials were characterized by XRD, XPS, TGA, and adsorption experiments, complemented by density functional theory calculations. Results show that optimal Fe incorporation (Al/Fe = 2:1) significantly improves Li + adsorption capacity (24.07 mg g −1 ) and isotopic selectivity ( α = 1.033) compared to the undoped MOFs ( Q = 12.97 mg g −1 , α = 1.027). Structural analyses reveal Al/Fe-MOFs contraction (Δ d (002) = 0.36 Å) and surface charge modification (pH ZPC shift from 10.26 to 8.73), while electronic structure studies demonstrate Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ redox activity promotes electron transfer. DFT calculations identify greatly increased adsorption energetics (−3.96 eV) through synergistic Al O/Fe O interactions, where the rigid Al O framework ensures structural stability and flexible Fe O sites support dynamic adsorption. The material exhibits excellent cycling stability (92 % capacity retention) due to dual stabilization mechanisms. These findings confirm that balanced bimetallic coordination in MOFs can enhance adsorption capacity and selectivity through geometric and electronic effects, providing valuable insights for designing advanced adsorbents for lithium recovery.

Al 2 O 3 exhibits high activity for the resource utilization of potent greenhouse gases, hydrofluorocarbons via dehydrofluorination or F/Cl exchange. However, it experiences completely fluorination under corrosive HF environment, leading to thorough fluorination of F-Al-O active site into F-Al-F, accompanied with serious carbon deposition. In this work, we successfully confined Al 2 O 3 in SiC (Al 2 O 3 @SiC) via treating Al 2 O 3 /SiC under high temperatures (>800 °C). The results showed that different with simple loaded Al 2 O 3 (Al 2 O 3 /SiC), during high temperature treatment, reaction between Al 2 O 3 and SiC occurred, leading to the confinement effect. Then, contributed by the interaction, desired F-Al-O species could be stabilized on the surface of SiC. While for Al 2 O 3 /SiC, it thoroughly turned into AlF 3 under identical reactive conditions, leading to inferior stability during CH 3 CHF 2 dehydrofluorination. Furthermore, the reaction rate of 5 %Al 2 O 3 @SiC is nearly up to 4 folds higher than that of traditional AlF 3 . Facilitated by the suitable Lewis acid intensity, less carbon deposition formed on Al 2 O 3 @SiC. Thus, constructing strong interaction between F-Al-O and stable SiC provides a potential strategy to stabilize unstable active centers.

Graphical A Polyoxomolybdate-based metal-organic framework-derived Cu-embedded molybdenum dioxide hybrid nanoparticles was first applied as sulfur host in aluminum-sulfur batteries to resolve remaining critical challenge of polysulfide shuttle effect. The pouch cell with Cu/MoO 2 @C cathode cycled at 100 mA g −1 exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 150 mAh g −1 and maintains 100 cycles. High-performance rechargeable aluminum-sulfur batteries (RASB) have great potential for various applications owing to their high theoretical capacity, abundant sulfur resources, and good safety. Nevertheless, the practical application of RASB still faces several challenges, including the polysulfide shuttle phenomenon and low sulfur utilization efficiency. Here, we first developed a synergistic copper heterogeneous metal oxide MoO 2 derived from polymolybdate-based metal-organic framework as an efficient catalyst for mitigating polysulfide diffusion. This composite enhances sulfur utilization and electrical conductivity of the cathode. DFT calculations and experimental results reveal the catalyst Cu/MoO 2 @C not only effectively anchors aluminum polysulfides (AlPSs) to mitigate the shuttle effect, but also significantly promotes the catalytic conversion of AlPSs on the sulfur cathode side during charging and discharging. The unique nanostructure contains abundant electrocatalytic active sites of oxide nanoparticles and Cu clusters, resulting in excellent electrochemical performance. Consequently, the established RASB exhibits an initial capacity of 875 mAh g −1 at 500 mA g −1 and maintains a capacity of 967 mAh g −1 even at a high temperature of 50 °C.

The superior combustion heat, lower ignition temperature, and enhanced combustion efficiency of aluminum–lithium (Al-Li) alloy powders have garnered significant research attention in relation to Al powders. However, the inadequate compatibility between Al-Li alloy powders (especially when Li > 3 wt%) and propellant components limits its application in the development of composite solid propellants. This study focuses on the surface-coating active Al-4.3Li (wt.%) alloy powder using a composite fluorosilane coupling agent to improve compatibility and combustion performance. A coating layer with a thickness of 30–40 nm was successfully formed on the surface of Al-4.3Li alloy powder through interactions involving Al-F, Al-O-Si, and Li-O-Si bonds, thereby achieving remarkable hydrophobicity. The heat release increased by 7.5 %, while the ignition delay time of the alloy powder decreased by nearly 200 ms, resulting in a significantly enhanced combustion performance in relation to that of the original Al-4.3Li alloy powder. Moreover, the modified Al-4.3Li alloy powder exhibited better compatibility, and no cracks or bubbles were observed in the cross-section of the propellant containing modified Al-4.3Li metal fuel. This study provides an effective approach for utilizing Al-Li alloy powders in solid propellants, which is of great significance for the development of high-energy propulsion systems.

Lithium–sulfur battery (LSB) possesses high theoretical energy density, but its poor cycling stability and safety issues significantly restrict progress in practical applications. Herein, a low-cost and simple Al(OH) 3 -based modification of commercial separator, which renders the battery outstanding fire-retardant and stable cycling, is reported. The modification is carried out by a simple blade coating of an ultrathin composite layer, mainly consisting of Al(OH) 3 nanoparticles and conductive carbon, on the cathode side of the separator. The Al(OH) 3 shows strong chemical absorption ability toward Lewis-based polysulfides and outstanding fire retardance through a self-decomposition mechanism under high heat, while the conductive carbon material acts as a top current collector to prevent dead polysulfide. LSB using the Al(OH) 3 -modified separator shows an extremely low average capacity decade per cycle during 1000 cycles at 2 C (0.029%, 1 C = 1600 mA g −1 ). The pouch cell exhibiting high energy density (426 Wh kg −1 ) can also steadily cycle for more than 100 cycles with high capacity retention (70.2% at 0.1 C). The effectiveness and accessibility of this Al(OH) 3 modification strategy will hasten the practical application progress of LSBs.

For the first time, this work investigates the synergetic impact of yttrium (Y) and aluminium (Al) co-doping on the electrochemical properties of 4.6 V LiCoO 2 (LCO) cathode for high energy density lithium-ion batteries. The optimized LCO demonstrates an impressive initial discharge capacity of 208.6 mAh g −1 in the voltage range of 3–4.6 V, along with superior structural stability , retaining over 86 % of its initial capacity even after 125 cycles at the current of 100 mA g −1 that is far higher than the capacity retention of 40 % for the pristine LCO under the same condition. Thanks to the synergistic effect , Al in Co layers enhances the bonds of Al/Co-O to stabilize oxygen in the LCO crystal structure while Y serves “pillar” in Li layers, migrated from the initial Co layers during cycling process, effectively curtail the formation and expansion of interlayer cracking, which contributes to the long-term cycle stability of LCO under high voltage. Most importantly, Al/Y co-doping is a facile process compatible with the existing industrial infrastructure for LCO mass production, and thus it can be scaled up readily for commercial applications. Al/Y co-doped LCO is assembled into commercial-level pouch cells with graphite anode, achieves an extremely high energy density of 750 Wh/L, and exhibits a superior cycling stability and obtains a capacity retention of 88.2 % at 25 °C after 800 cycles with the high cutoff voltage of 4.55 V.

Graphical Synergetic catalysis : The one-pot tandem bis-alkoxycarbonylation of alkynes was accomplished over the bi-functional catalytic system containing Xantphos-modified Pd-complex and Lewis super-acid of Al(OTf) 3 . Via the synergetic catalysis, the involved Xantphos-modified Pd-complex was responsible for the activation of CO and the alkynes through coordination to Pd-center while Al(OTf) 3 was in charge of the activation of the alcohol to facilitate the formation of [Pd−H] + active species. Tandem bis-alkoxycarbonylation of alkynes allows for the preparation of 2-substituted succinates from alkynes and nucleophile alcohol via two successive alkoxycarbonylation with advantages of 100 % atomic economy and simplified one-pot operation. Herein, the one-pot tandem bis-alkoxycarbonylation of alkynes was accomplished over the bi-functional catalytic system containing Xantphos-modified Pd-complex and Lewis super-acid of Al(OTf) 3 . It was found that, via the synergetic catalysis, the involved Xantphos-modified Pd-complex was responsible for the activation of CO and the alkynes through coordination to Pd-center while Al(OTf) 3 was in charge of the activation of the alcohol to facilitate the formation of [Pd−H] + active species. The in situ high-pressure FT-IR analysis, coupled with 1 H/ 13 C NMR spectral characterizations, confirmed that the introduced Al(OTf) 3 with intensive oxophilicity (via acid-base pair interaction) was able to activate nucleophilic MeOH to be a reliable proton-donor ( i. e . hydride-source) to warrant the formation and stability of [Pd−H] + species upon the oxidation of Pd 0 by H + (Pd 0 +H + →[Pd II −H] + ). Over the developed bi-functional catalytic system, the yields of the target diesters were obtained in the range of 36∼86 % in this sequence with the wide substrate scope.
