Metal-hydroxyquinoline-halogen (MqX, M = Cd, Cu; q = 8-hydroxyquinoline; X = Cl, Br, I) nanowires are synthesized via a sonochemical-assisted method. The elemental analysis (EA), inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) support an M/q/X ratio of 1:1:1. The electron microscope images reveal a typical CdqX and CuqX nanowire diameter of 30–50 nm and a nanowire length of 400–600 nm. In addition, the synthesis of the MqX nanowires is only observed when there is an excess of halide ions (X/q molar ratio of 3 or greater). This halide deficiency results in the formation of micrometer-sized Mq 2 sheets. We demonstrated the conversion of the MqX nanowires to Mq 2 micro-sheets in an ultrasonic bath of 1 M 8-Hq ethanol solutions (50%, w / w ) at 50 °C for 2 h, but not vice versa. The MqX nanowires exhibited excellent properties for photoluminescence, electrochemiluminescence (ECL), and photoelectrochemistry (PEC). The CdqBr and CdqI nanowires were coated onto a glass carbon and a fluorine-doped tin oxide glass electrode to develop the above ECL and PEC methods for the detection of H 2 O 2 and Cu 2+ , respectively. In the range of 2 to 14 μM, the ECL intensity of the CdqBr nanowires was inversely proportional to the concentration of H 2 O 2 with a detection limit of 0.26 μM. For Cu 2+ sensing, the photocurrent of the CdqI nanowires exhibited a linear response to Cu 2+ over the range of 2 to 16 μM of which a detection limit of 0.2 μM was observed.

The work aims to investigate the role of initial water content in the glycerol hydrogenolysis to 1,2-propanediol over Cu–ZnO in depth by characterizing the fresh and spent catalysts in detail with ICP, XRD, XPS, EDS, HRTEM, N 2 sorption, N 2 O chemisorption, H 2 -TPD and NH 3 -TPD. The glycerol conversion and 1,2-propanediol selectivity gradually reduce simultaneously with increasing initial water content. At higher initial water content, more CuO are formed, bringing about a decrease in the 1,2-propanediol selectivity. The sizes of Cu and ZnO crystallites increase tremendously with increasing initial water content, lowering the active surface area and acidity. Furthermore, the surface Cu content reduces along with the increase of surface Zn content at higher initial water content. The two aspects make a decrease in the glycerol conversion. This work would aid the glycerol hydrogenolysis to 1,2-propanediol over Cu–ZnO with high catalytic efficiency.

Cu-based tandem catalysts have been widely studied due to their excellent performance in electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR) to produce C2+ products. However, during the CO2RR process, Cu atoms face the issue of dynamic restructuring, resulting in relatively poor stability and single-product selectivity. Herein, Cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) was integrated with Cu nanoparticles (NPs) to prepare a tandem catalyst (Cu/CoPcx) by in-situ growth method, significantly enhancing the selectivity of Cu-based catalysts for C2+ products. The optimal material, Cu/CoPc0.004, achieved a Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 73.17% for C2+ products, with a C2+ product current density exceeding 377 mA/cm2. More importantly, tandem catalyst Cu/CoPc0.004 exhibits high selectivity for ethylene, achieving a FE of 52.35% at -1.26 V (versus reversible hydrogen electrode) with a high ethylene current density (270 mA/cm2). The experimental results indicate that the interaction between CoPc and Cu NPs introduces numerous oxygen vacancies and stabilizes the presence of Cu+. Moreover, the unique structure of the cascade catalyst enables CoPc to provide a large amount of CO intermediates for Cu active sites, thus promoting C-C coupling and facilitating the formation of C2+ products.

Photocatalytic CO 2 reduction plays an important role in solving environmental issues and alleviating the energy crisis. However, it is still challenging to distribute the surface-active site on photocatalysts with efficient separation of carriers in rational. Herein, the Cu species loaded SrTiO 3 nanofiber was constructed through coaxial electrospinning which could realize the dispersion of the Cu site on the one-dimensional (1D) nanofiber structure. The 1D nanofiber with Cu site exhibited superior performance on photocatalytic CO 2 reduction based on the excellent ability of charge separation. The Cu 2 O and CuO were determined to be located on the surface of 1D SrTiO 3 nanofiber by the TEM and XPS. The work functions of SrTiO 3 , Cu 2 O, and CuO were calculated to be 5.26, 5.47, and 5.51 eV, respectively, suggesting that the carriers could transfer from SrTiO 3 nanofiber to the Cu species. The yield of CH 3 OH with the optimized 8%Cu-SrTiO 3 catalyst could reach 8.08 ± 0.03 µmol⋅g −1 ⋅h −1 . This work provided a coaxial electrospinning strategy to load the Cu species active site on the surface of 1D SrTiO 3 nanofiber for enhancing photoreduction CO 2 .

The emergence of Cu@Ag core-shell nanoparticles presents a promising solution to address issues such as copper oxidation, the high cost of silver, and electro-chemical migration in high-power electronic devices, showcasing their potential for practical applications. In this study, Cu@Ag nanoparticles were synthesized via a liquid-phase reduction method, resulting in an average size of 30 nm. A low-boiling-point mixed organic solvent was meticulously prepared following Raoult's law, enabling the creation of a nano paste utilizing Cu@Ag nanoparticles. This innovation facilitated the sintering of fully dense joints under ambient air conditions, effectively mitigating the oxidation issue caused by silver dewetting behavior in Cu@Ag core-shell nanoparticles. Subsequently, the shear strength and microstructure of the joints were comprehensively studied under various sintering temperatures and durations. Notably, the joint exhibited a shear strength of 17.3 MPa when sintered at 250 °C for 30 min, while achieving full density at a sintering temperature of 300 °C for 30 min. These findings underscore the capacity of Cu@Ag core-shell nano paste to enable the production of high-performance joints under air conditions, utilizing thoughtfully selected organic components.

In the present work, three-dimensional porous HxTiS2 nanosheet–polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites were first synthesized by a two-step method. First, HxTiS2 ultrathin nanosheets were prepared by the lithium intercalation and exfoliation method, followed by the surface polymerization reactions of aniline. The influences of the amount of HxTiS2 nanosheets on the nanocomposite morphology and electrochemical performances of the nanocomposites modified glass carbon electrode (HxTiS2 nanosheet–PANI/GCE) were investigated. The results demonstrated that the incorporation of HxTiS2 nanosheets as a suitable substrate can regulate the growth of PANI, enhance the electrode stability and improve interfacial electron transfer rates. In addition, based on the nanocomposites, we developed a novel electrochemical sensor to directly detect trace Cu2+, and discovered that the coordination interaction between Cu2+ cations and the N atoms of the imine moieties in PANI endowed the electrochemical sensor with high selectivity. Because of the synergetic effects of HxTiS2 nanosheets and PANI, the as-prepared electrochemical sensor exhibited highly sensitive and selective assaying of Cu2+ with a detection limit of 0.7 nM (signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) equal to 3) and a linear range from 25 nM to 5 μM, under optimal conditions.

Abstract A series of bimetallic Cu samples (Cu–Pt/SiO 2 , Cu–Pd/SiO 2 , Cu–Ag/SiO 2 , Cu–Ni/SiO 2 ) were prepared by wetness impregnation method, then investigated for hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO). We furthered the study and found that Cu–Pt/SiO 2 got the smallest particle size and greatest dispersion. Besides, it was found that Pt promoted reduction of Cu 2+ . Compared with other Cu–Pt molar ratio, Cu–Pt/SiO 2 (1:0.2) was the preferable catalyst for hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2-PDO. It is worth noting that Cu–Pt/SiO 2 presented the highest activity with a 96 % selectivity to 1,2-PDO and a nearly 100 % conversion of glycerol at 473 K, 40 bar initial H 2 pressure, 12 h, which is much higher activity than monometallic Cu/SiO 2 , Pt/SiO 2 and other bimetallic Cu samples. Meanwhile, the used Cu–Pt/SiO 2 catalyst still preformed high activity. Furthermore, it was found that the presence of Pt decreased the aggregation of particles during the hydrogenolysis of glycerol.

The role of Cu(II) in the reduction of N -nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) with zero-valent metals was investigated by determining the effects of Cu(II) on the removal, kinetics, products, and mechanism. NDMA removal was enhanced, and all reactions followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model except for the Fe and Fe/0.1 mM Cu(II) systems. The iron mass-normalized pseudo-first-order rate constants ( k MFe ) increased with the Cu(II) concentration. The zinc mass-normalized pseudo-first-order rate constants ( k MZn ) were identical to those with the Cu(II) concentrations from 0.1 mM to 1.0 mM and were higher with 2.0 mM Cu(II). The types of products detected were unchanged. Some unknown products were also found. NDMA was reduced to 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine , UDMH). Then, UDMH was reduced into dimethylamine (DMA) by the Fe/Cu(II) and Zn/Cu(II) systems. Catalytic hydrogenation was proposed as the reduction mechanism. Several copper species, such as Cu(OH) 2 in the Fe/Cu(II) system and Cu 2 O and Cu(OH) 2 in the Zn/Cu(II) system enhanced NDMA reduction. Differences between the Fe/Cu(II) and Zn/Cu(II) systems were caused by the reduction potentials and surface conditions of the different metals and the copper species in the various systems.

A novel poly(catechol-diethylenetriamine-pphenylenediamine)(PCEA) adsorbent was synthesized in methanol, with chelating groups supplied by catechol and diethylenetriamine, which showed a strong removal performance and efficient adsorption toward Cu(II) ions in aqueous solution. The adsorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Besides, factors such as adsorbent dosage, pH, initial ionic and metal concentrations, contact time, and temperature on the adsorption of Cu(II) were studied. The data revealed that the adsorption followed a pseudo-second order kinetic model and the adsorption rate was influenced by the intra-particle diffusion. Furthermore, the adsorption process followed the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum adsorption capacity ( Q m ) was 44.2 mg/g at 298 K in simulated wastewater. The value of Δ G (kJ/mol) and Δ H (kJ/mol) also demonstrated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. Studies revealed that PCEA particles were powerful and stable for the removal of Cu(II) in water, and it could be directly applied to the Cu(II)-contaminated water.

A novel three-dimensional ordered macroporous (3DOM) Cu/Fe 3 O 4 composite film was prepared by electrodepositing ferroferric oxide (Fe 3 O 4 ) on the 3DOM Cu current collector. Characterizations via electron microscopies and X-ray diffractions confirmed that achieved 3DOM Cu/Fe 3 O 4 composite inherited originally ordered porous structure, but has a layer of nanosized Fe 3 O 4 on the surface of the 3DOM Cu framework. The obtained 3DOM Cu/Fe 3 O 4 composite films were directly used as anodes of lithium ion batteries in the absence of conducting additives or binders. Results from electrochemical evaluations exhibited that the 3DOM Cu/Fe 3 O 4 anode could deliver a stable capacity of 800 mAh g −1 up to 400 cycles, while fast capacity degradation with 200 mAh g −1 retained after 100 cycles was observed on Fe 3 O 4 deposited on plane Cu substrate. The superior behavior of the 3DOM Cu/Fe 3 O 4 composite anode is ascribed to its unique porous structure, which provides sufficient space for large volume change of Fe 3 O 4 and greatly reduces the diffusion distance for Li-ion in the active material.

A composite hydrogel consisting of well-dispersed Pt-Cu nanoparticles (NPs) supported on three-dimensional (3D) graphene (Pt-Cu@3DG) was successfully prepared by mild chemical reduction. The 3D interconnected macroporous structure of the graphene framework not only possesses large specific
surface area that allows high metal loadings, but also facilitates mass transfer during the catalytic reaction. The Pt-Cu bimetallic alloy NPs show good catalytic activity compared with Pt NPs and reduce the content of Pt NPs used, thereby lowering costs. The morphology and composition of
the Pt-Cu@3DG composite were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The catalysis studies indicate that the resulting composites
can be used as an efficient, inexpensive, recyclable, and stable catalyst for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol under mild conditions.

Single electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET-LRP) was employed to prepare thermal-sensitive starch graft poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (Starch-g-PNIPAM) with soluble Starch-Br as macro-initiator at molecular level. And Starch-g-PNIAPM with improved graft ratio and controlled length of graft chains were obtained. The effects of molar ratio of monomer to initiator and temperature on polymerization were investigated. The thermal responsibilities investigated by 1H NMR and UV showed that the LCST ranged from 31.5 °C to 23 °C with the increase of the length of PNIPAM chains and the concentrations of copolymers. Starch-g-PNIPAM hydrogels were gained when adding N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide as crosslinking agent and the swelling and deswelling behaviors were also investigated. The obtained hydrogels possess a high equilibrium swelling ratio as high as 1826%, and an extremely rapid shrinking rate as fast as losing more than 85% of water in 5 min.
