A series of manganese oxides (MnO, Mn 3 O 4 , Mn 2 O 3 and MnO 2 ) were prepared and firstly applied as heterogeneous catalysts for the liquid phase epoxidation of alkenes with 30% H 2 O 2 in bicarbonate solution. Under our experimental conditions, MnO exhibited superior activity for the conversion of styrene to achieve ca. 100% with 92.4% selectivity of epoxide, compared to the other three manganese oxides as well as other metal oxides. Furthermore, recycling studies showed the good recyclability of MnO as a heterogeneous catalyst, which did not lose the catalytic activity after four reuses appreciably.

Fluorescent sensor has demonstrated to be a facile and effective method to detect heavy metal ions owing to its unique characteristics such as simplicity, ease of operation and cost-effectiveness. In this work, a novel fluorescent probe with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature that contains an amide ligand base on the tetraphenylethylene (TPE) dye was designed and successfully synthesized. The utilization of the AIE-active fluorescent probe (named as FDPA) for detection of Cu 2+ in aqueous solution has also been examined. We demonstrated that the resultant AIE-active molecule displays amphiphilic property and can self-assemble in aqueous solution with remarkable enhancement of fluorescent intensity owing to its AIE feature. The detection limit of probe for Cu 2+ determination is 6.11 × 10 −9 M and shows excellent selectivity in the presence of competitive ions. This work provides a useful route to overcome the fluorescence quenching of conventional fluorescent probes in aqueous solution and an elegant way to prepare fluorescent probes with better fluorescence properties.

Commercial lithium-ion batteries have safety risks due to the use of electrolyte-containing flammable organic solvents. The development of all solid-state lithium ion batteries with solid electrolyte is a feasible technical way to improve the safety of batteries. In this work, PVDF-based composite solid-state electrolytes (CSEs) were prepared by coupling Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The electrochemical performance and interfacial compatibility between composite electrolyte and electrode were improved by the combination of appropriate amount of Li-ion-conducting particles and the insulating polymer. The corresponding solid-state battery of LiFePO 4 |PVDF-LLZTO-CSE| Li is fabricated and delivers initial discharge capacity of 162.4 mAh g -1 , and coulomb efficiency is approximately 98.5%. And the solid-state battery exhibits satisfactory rate capability and cycling stability at room temperature. This study suggests that a combination of the lithium garnet particles and insulating polymer is one of the promising methods to solve the problem of liquid electrolyte.

We are just beginning to exploit the fascinating potential of thionine , called electrochemical probe that can selectively recognize specific polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as tools for the detection of tricyclic aromatic hydrocarbons phenanthrene (PHE) and anthracene (ANT). A novel electrochemical sensing platform by modification of electroactive thionine functionalized graphene onto glass carbon electrode (Th/GRs/GCE) surface was constructed. The immobilized thionine showed a remarkable stability, which may benefit from the π–π stacking force with graphene. Under optimum conditions, the proposed electrochemical sensor exhibited high sensitivity and low detection limit for detecting PHE and ANT. The total amount of PHE and ANT could be quantified in a wide range of 10 pM–0.1 μM with a good linearity ( R 2 = 0.9979) and a low detection limit of 0.1 pM ( S / N = 3). Compounds which possess one or two benzene rings or PAHs with more than three rings, such as benzene, naphthalene (NAP), benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and pyrene (PYR) show little interference on the detection. Consequently, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was proposed for the determination of PHE and ANT, which was used to determine PHE and ANT in waste water samples. The electrochemical method provides a general tool that complements the commonly used spectroscopic methods and immune method for the detection of PAHs.

Porous carbon is the most important and most common adsorbent for the separation and treatment of organic pollutants. Characteristics such as accessible and large surface area, physical and chemical stability, and low-cost manufacturing method are desired for any adsorbent. Herein, a hierarchically porous carbon (HPC) was prepared by pyrolysis and graphitization of crystalline metal–organic frameworks (MOF-5) for enhanced adsorption of aromatic contaminants. The material treated at high temperature (950 °C) possesses large surface area (1512 m 2 /g), high porosity (0.94 cm 3 /g), and hierarchically porous structures. The generated mesopores around 4 nm improve the interconnectivity of micro- and macropores to make the porous material ideal for sorption of organic pollutants such as aromatic hydrocarbons. Effects of adsorbent dose, pH, ionic strength, contact time, and initial concentration on the adsorption of p -nitrophenol (PNP, as a model) were investigated. Adsorption isotherms and kinetics suggest that the adsorption is a spontaneous and endothermic physisorption process with monolayer surface coverage. The surface sites are electron-rich due to the graphitic layer, which has high affinity toward π electrons of the aromatic ring. The adsorption capacity of the hierarchically porous carbon (HPC) is nearly over 100% higher that of conventional activated carbon.

In this work, a novel epoxy monomer denoted as 3,5′-di-t-butyl-5,3′-dimethyl biphenyl diglycidyl ether (t-BuMBPDGE) was synthesized and applied into in situ composites with 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′-biphenyl diglycidyl ether (TMBPDGE), accompanied with curing agent aromatic amines. The liquid crystalline phase structure and the crosslink density of substituted biphenyl epoxies were determined by polarized optical microscopy, wide angle X-ray diffraction measurements and dynamic storage moduli data. The samples showed good mechanical properties and could recover quickly from a second state to their initial states with a shape fixity ratio higher than 98% and shape recovery ratio higher than 99%, owing to the oriented structure and increased crosslink network density caused by the orientation of biphenyl mesogenic. The high glass transition temperatures ranging from 160 to 178 °C and good water resistance could contribute to a stable fixed shape. The water resistance is analyzed by contact angles test. The samples exhibited contact angles of 92–98 degrees, which indicated that the water resistance was apparently better than that of conventional epoxy systems.

Nd2Fe14B nanoparticles were successfully prepared by using a low-energy chemical method. The microscopic characteristics and formation mechanisms of the phases were investigated at each stage during the preparation of Nd-Fe-B nanoparticles. The Nd-Fe-B intermediates, Nd-Fe-B oxides and reduced Nd-Fe-B nanoparticles were detected and analyzed by using TEM, STEM, XRD, SEM, VSM and Rietveld calculations. The results showed that the intermediate of Nd-Fe-B consisted of Fe3O4 and Nd and Fe elements surrounded by nitrile organic compounds. The Nd-Fe-B oxide was composed of NdFeO3 (48.619 wt%), NdBO3 (31.480 wt%) and α-Fe (19.901 wt%), which was formed by the reaction among Nd, Fe3O4 and B2O3. NdFeO3 and NdBO3 exhibited a perovskite-like lamellar structure, and the grain size was smaller than that of α-Fe. Nd-Fe-B particles were mainly composed of Nd2Fe14B and α-Fe phases. The small particles of NdFeO3 and NdBO3 and the interstitial position between oxide particles and α-Fe were more favorable for the formation of Nd2Fe14B particles. At the same time, the surface of α-Fe particles can also diffuse to form Nd2Fe14B nanoparticles. The coercivity of Nd-Fe-B particles was 5.79 kOe and the saturation magnetization was 63.135 emu g−1.

Oxide thermoelectric materials have a wide range of applications due to their excellent stability, low cost, and non-toxic properties. However, their low thermoelectric conversion efficiency limits their practical use. Therefore, improving the performance of oxide thermoelectric materials has become the focus of current research. Interface engineering is an important approach to enhance thermoelectric properties by optimizing electrical transport properties through multiphase composite regulation of phase interface structure. A series of Sr 0.6 La 0.4 Nb 2 O 6-δ /x wt% graphite (x = 0, 0.6, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) composite ceramics thermoelectric materials were prepared, and the mechanism for improving their thermoelectric properties was explored. Graphite serves as an electron momentum amplifier within the Sr 0.6 Ba 0.4 Nb 2 O 6-δ matrix, thereby augmenting both conductivity and power factor values significantly. Notably, the incorporation of 1.5 wt% graphite led to a remarkable enhancement in the thermoelectric power factor at 1073 K, reaching an impressive value of 254.84 μW/K 2 m - representing a notable increase of approximately 51 % compared to the unmodified sample - primarily attributed to the elevated electrical conductivity .

A novel porous membrane of chemically modified polyvinyl butyral (mPVB), with improved thermal properties and chemical stability for lithium ion battery applications, is successfully synthesized by utilizing the chain extension reaction of the OH units from PVB. The porous mPVB membranes are obtained via the tape casting and phase inversion method. The corresponding gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) is achieved by immersing the as-prepared membranes in the liquid electrolyte. The electrochemical performances of the GPE show that the mPVB membranes have the features of good uniformity, high porosity ( ≈ 90%), great thermal stability, and high mechanical strength. Moreover, the GPE exhibits good chemical stability, a wide electrochemical window, as well as high ionic conductivity ( ≈ 1.21 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ). A test of a Li/GPE/LiFePO 4 battery cell shows a capacity of 147.7 mAh g −1 and excellent cycling stability, demonstrating the great potential of the mPVB-based GPE for lithium ion battery applications.

Polymorphic phase transition is an essential phenomenon in condensed matter that the physical properties of materials may undergo significant changes due to the structural transformation. Phase transition has thus become an important means and dimension for regulating material properties. Herein, this study demonstrates the pressure-induced multi-transition of both structure and physical properties in violet phosphorus, a novel phosphorus allotrope. Under compression, violet phosphorus undergoes sequential polymorphic phase transitions. Concomitant with the first phase transition, violet phosphorus exhibits emergent insulator–metal transition, superconductivity, and dramatic switching from positive to negative photoconductivity. Remarkably, the resistance of violet phosphorus shows a sudden drop of around 10 7 along with the phase transition. In addition, piezochromism from translucent red to opaque black and suppression of photoluminescence are observed upon compression. Of particular interest is that the sample irreversibly transforms into black phosphorus with a pronounced discrepancy in physical properties from the pristine violet phosphorus after decompression. The abundant polymorphic transitions and property changes in violet phosphorus have significant implications for designing novel pressure-responsive electronic/optoelectronic devices and exploring concealed polymorphic transition materials.

Li 7 P 3 S 11 (70Li 2 S·30P 2 S 5 ) sulfide is a promising electrolyte candidate for all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) owing to its high ionic conducivity and wide electrochemical stability window. However, the sensitivity to moisture and the poor interfacial compatibility with electrodes limit the conventional application of Li 7 P 3 S 11 . Herein, we present a substitution strategy to produce a O-incorporated 70Li 2 S·(30-x)P 2 S 5 ·xP 2 O 5 (mol%) sulfide electrolyte to address above issues. The elaborately designed electrolyte is prepared via wet vibration ball milling technique with P 2 O 5 substitution content of 1, 3 and 5. As a result, the 70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 electrolyte displays the highest ionic conductivity of 2.61× 10 −3 S cm −1 which outperforms than that of pristine Li 7 P 3 S 11 (ionic conductivity of 1.35 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and the assembled LiCoO 2 @LiNbO 3 /70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 /Li-In ASSLB exhibits the superior capacity retention of 93.2% after 100 cycles at 0.5C. The reason for the developed electrochemical performance lies in the substitution of the non-bridging sulfur atom with bridging oxygen atom, from which the interaction between electrolyte and lithium ions is weakened, thereby the rapid transfer of lithium ions is facilitated. Furthermore, Raman and XRD results indicate that the adverse interfacial reactions are suppressed through P 2 O 5 substitution. This work suggests that P 2 O 5 substitution is an effective strategy for sulfide electrolyte toward high energy all-solid-state lithium batteries.

CuSeO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) compounds were prepared by combustion synthesis combined with spark plasma sintering method. Phase composition and microstructure analysis indicate almost single BiCuSeO phase in low doping level, while phase separation appears in heavy doping level.

CuSeO compounds have been measured in the temperature range of 323–823 K. The electrical conductivity is greatly enhanced by almost three times from 8.70 to 26.2 S/cm at 323 K by the substitution of Bi with K due to the large decrease of the activation energy. The overall thermal conductivity decreases significantly due to the strong point defect scattering by K doping and possibly enhanced interface scattering on the secondary phase. The maximum ZT reaches 0.6 at 823 K for the sample of x = 0.02, which is about 50% higher than that of the pristine sample. Our work offers a fast and more efficient approach for the fabrication of BiCuSeO-based materials.
