Herein we prepared a novel nitrogen-doping aluminum-graphite (Al-Gr-N) composite and applied for generating and activating H 2 O 2 to treat the landfill leachate. The results showed that Al-Gr-N composite could significantly enhance H 2 O 2 yield by oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), about 3 times higher than that of aluminum-graphite (Al-Gr) composite, due to its abundant N species, higher content of defects carbon atoms, higher surface area and porous volume, which enhanced the activity and selectivity toward two-electron pathway of ORR by increasing electron density, and promoting the mass transfer of reaction intermediates. The H 2 O 2 concentration achieved 2049 mg/L. The H + from the hydrolysis of in-situ generated Al 3+ could improve the ORR process, leading to high efficient production of H 2 O 2 at wide pH range. The in-situ generated Al 3+ could act as the coagulant to enhance the pollutant removal. This composite could effectively treat landfill leachate due to its high H 2 O 2 and nascent aluminum.

Given their outstanding versatile properties, multilayered anticorrosion coatings have drawn great interest from researchers in the academic and engineering fields. However, the application of multilayered coatings is restricted by some limitations such as low interlayer compatibilities, the harsh preparation process, etc. This work introduced a composite film fabricated on a 2A12 aluminum alloy surface, including an anodic oxide film, a sol–gel film, and a layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembling film from bottom to top. The microstructure and elemental characterization indicated that the finish of the coating with the LBL film resulted in a closely connected multilayered coating with a smoother surface. The anticorrosion performance was systematically evaluated in the simulated corrosive medium and neutral salt spray environment. The integrated coating with the LBL film presented an excellent anticorrosion ability with system impedance over 108Ω·cm2and a self-corrosion current density two orders of magnitude lower than that of the other coatings. After the acceleration test in a salt spray environment, the multilayered coatings could still show a good protective performance with almost no cracks and no penetration of chloride ions. It is believed that the as-constructed multilayered coating with high corrosive properties and a fine surface state will have promising applications in the field of anticorrosion engineering.Keywords:multilayer;corrosion;impedance;layer-by-layer

The incorporation of micro- and nano-sized SiC particles (micro- & nano-SiCps) into Al matrix constituted the micro- & nano-SiCp/Al composites through powder metallurgy . A unique ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure with micro-SiCps distributed among Al grains and most of nano-SiCps dispersed in grain interiors is characterized. Based on this, the synergetic constraint of dual-scale reinforcements on deformation of Al matrix is employed to enhance dislocation accumulation through increased SiCp/Al interface area and Orowan pinning effect, resulting in an improved strain hardening capacity. Compared with 10 vol% micro-SiCp/Al composites, the composites with 1 vol% nano-SiCps and 9 vol% micro-SiCps exhibit notable tensile properties of 285 MPa in yield strength , 374.7 MPa in ultimate strength and 11.3% in total elongation, increased by 32.6%, 28.7% and 37.8%, respectively, while remain a comparable Young's modulus of 94.6 GPa. Theoretical analysis proves that the dominant strengthening mechanism in micro- & nano-SiCp/Al composites is dislocation strengthening, different from the load transfer in individual micro-SiCp/Al composites. Our work provides inspirations for fabricating high-modulus Al matrix composites with simultaneously enhanced strength and ductility.

Removal of aluminum ion from rare earth ions solution by selective adsorption was one of the promising methods for green enrichment of the acidic rare earth solution containing aluminum ions. Herein, a series of ZnS polymorphs/halloysite composites and Wurtzite/Halloysite (WZ@Hal) with different wurtzite content were prepared by facile one-step hydrothermal method using halloysite as the substance. The phase composition, microstructure and specific surface area of the WZ@Hal composite were characterized and the selective adsorption behavior of the WZ@Hal composite for aluminum and rare earth ions under different conditions was studied. The results showed that WZ@Hal composite loaded with hexagonal wurtzite showed good adsorption selectivity for Al(III) with a spontaneous exothermic process, while SP@Hal composite loaded with cubic sphalerite displayed no obvious adsorption capacity for both Al(III) and Er(III) with an endothermic process. The WZ@Hal composite was synthesized through strong electron interaction between sulfur atoms of wurtzite with oxygen atoms on the surface of halloysite. The WZ@Hal exhibited a fast adsorption rate a fast adsorption rate (k 2 was 0.0713 g⋅mg −1 ⋅min −1 ) and an excellent selectivity coefficient (K s was 237). The adsorption process of WZ@Hal for Al(III) in mixed solution was described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and controlled by the chemisorption. WZ@Hal showed excellent regeneration and maintained high selective adsorption performance in adsorption–desorption process. The adsorption mechanism was that aluminum ions were adsorbed by electron interaction with sulfur atoms of wurtzite and oxygen atoms of halloysite at the interface of the wurtzite and halloysite. WZ@Hal composite showed excellent selective adsorption performance in the adsorption and separation process of acidic mixed solution of aluminum ion and rare earth ions.

Novel structural designs for metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are expected to improve ion-transport behavior in composite solid electrolytes . Herein, upper-dimensional MIL-53(Al) nanofibers (MNFs, MIL-53 belongs to the MIL (Material Institute Lavoisier) group) with flower-like nanoflake structures have been designed and constructed via modified hydrothermal coordination. The optimized MNFs with high surface area and porosity can form abundant interfaces with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) matrix. The plasticization of MNFs to the PEO matrix will facilitate segmental movement of PEO chains to facilitate Li + conduction. The unsaturated open metal centers of MNFs can effectively capture bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anions (TFSI − ) to deliver more free lithium ions for transfer. Moreover, the upper-dimensional nanofiber structure endows lithium ions with a long-range and consecutive transport pathway. The obtained composite solid electrolyte (MNFs@PEO) presents a high ionic conductivity of 4.1 × 10 −4 S cm −1 and a great Li + transference number of 0.4 at 60 °C. The electrolyte also exhibits a stable Li plating/stripping behavior over 1000 h at 0.1 mA cm −1 with inhibited Li dendrite growth. Furthermore, the Li/LiFePO 4 and Li/LiNi 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 O 2 batteries with MNFs@PEO as electrolytes both display great cycling stabilities with high-capacity retention, indicating their potential applications in lithium metal batteries . The study will put forward new inspirations for designing advanced MOF-based composite solid electrolytes.

In this study, the focus revolves around the synthesis, characterization, and subsequent evaluation of CuMM’O 4 (M, M’ = Al, Ga, In) photoelectrocatalysts, notable for their distinct spinel- and delafossite-like structures. These novel materials are derived from a pseudobinary CuMO 2 -based solid solution. Specifically, the delafossite-like CuAlInO 4 and CuGaInO 4 manifest a trigonal superstructure within the R 3 ‾ m space group, defined by structural motifs comprising [InO 6 ] octahedra, [CuO 5 ] hexahedra, and [AlO 5 ] or [GaO 5 ] hexahedra. This study spans a comprehensive analysis encompassing optical properties, electrical characteristics, electronic structure, and the ensuing photoelectrochemical performancer. This exploration integrates experimental analyses and density functional theory calculations to discern the intricacies of these materials. The assessed CuMM’O 4 samples display favorable optical traits and band-edge positions conducive to facilitating visible-light-driven photoelectrochemical water-splitting. Among the evaluated samples, the delafossite-like CuGaInO 4 photocathode stands out due to its notably elevated carrier density and reduced resistance for carrier transport, distinguishing it from CuAlGaO 4 and CuAlInO 4 . Consequently, it exhibits superior photoelectrochemical activity. CuGaInO 4 , serving as an unadorned photocathode, demonstrates a noteworthy photocurrent density of 8.6 μA/cm 2 under 0.61V RHE and 102.05 μA/cm 2 at 0.15 V RHE . Moreover, it achieves a peak incident photon-to-current efficiency of approximately 1.86 % at 0.61 V RHE under a 480 nm wavelength.

High porosity Co-Al-Fe intermetallic with 3D-microstructures were one-step synthesized via a novel thermal explosion reaction. A link between pore structure and permeability was established using 3D-XRM technology. The corrosion resistance of the samples with different Fe contents was investigated at 900 °C under an oxygen/sulphur atmosphere for up to 120 h. The results showed that the pore structure of the samples remains stable, and the internal matrices are intact due to the formation of a thin protective layer of Al 2 O 3 and Fe 2 O 3 on the surface of the product skeleton. In addition, inward diffusion of S leads to the formation of FeS nodules.

Tuning memory windows is vital for cross-bar memory architectures with low power and free cross-talk. Herein, we demonstrate a synergistic interface/electrode nanoengineering strategy to tune memory windows for low power operation and enhanced electrical readout in polymer devices; this approach is workable for most insulating or semiconducting polymeric mediums. Through customizing the resistivity of selectively reduced graphene oxide nanoelectrodes, an inherent sub μA current is recorded in the programming storage state. The nanocavity of the polymer interface can reduce the switching voltage due to local electric field enhancement, thus leading to tunable memory windows. By stacking a selector onto the memory, the vertical architecture features dynamic memory kinetics, enabling cross-talk-free readout by suppressing sneak leakage current paths.

Ni-Cu/Al-KCC-1 catalysts with different metal contents were prepared using fibrous nano-silica (Al-KCC-1) as a support. Field emission scanning electron microscopy observations showed that the spherical particle morphology and fibrous structure of the Al-KCC-1 were not changed after metal loading. Transmission electron microscopy images demonstrated that the introduction of copper improved the dispersion of the nickel, while X-ray diffraction and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction confirmed the formation of a Ni-Cu alloy. The N2-Brunauer–Emmett–Teller specific surface areas of the catalysts were in the range of 269–378 m2/g and the average pore diameters were 7.988–12.078 nm. These Ni-Cu/Al-KCC-1 catalysts were used to promote the cracking of waste cooking oil model compound (WCOMC) to produce H2 and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and the 10 wt% Ni-5 wt% Cu/Al-KCC-1 exhibited the highest catalytic activity. At a WCOMC flow rate of 0.04 mL/min and 750 °C, the instantaneous volume fraction of H2 reached 49.8 vol% and the content of H2 in the gaseous product was close to 71.4 vol%.

Filiform corrosion (FFC) challenges the application of Zn-Mg-Al coated steel (ZMA-steel). Herein, a self-healing coating loaded with functionalized mesoporous CeO 2 (mCeO 2 ) was developed to suppress FFC for ZMA-steel in saline media. mCeO 2 of large specific area readily accommodated benzotriazole and immobilized on g-C 3 N 4 generating a nanofiller (BTA@mCeO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 ) for epoxy matrix (EP). Strong barrier of lamellar g-C 3 N 4 , releasing BTA from nanofiller and generating Ce cations accounted for the long-term corrosion-resistance and self-healing effect of BTA@mCeO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 /EP system for ZMA-steel. Through taking full advantages of CeO 2 -based nanofiller, this work may provide an intelligent coating to solve FFC of ZMA-steel.

Recently, anti-corrosion coatings with auto-inhibition and self-reporting on their premature flaws are becoming more and more attractive. In this work, we engineered a cerium nitrate/8-hydroxyquinoline (Ce-HQ) hybrid pigment to endow epoxy coatings with corrosion self-inhibiting and fluorescent self-reporting performances via molecule design. The Ce-HQ pigments were synthesized by physical mixture and then dispersed into the commercial epoxy coating. Once the epoxy coating gets degraded, the underneath aluminum alloy matrix may corrode to produce Al 3+ ions, which can compete with Ce 3+ ions in the Ce-HQ complex, and then chelate with dissociative 8-HQ to form fluorescent Al-HQ complex, due to the higher bonding strength of Al 3+ with 8-HQ than Ce 3+ ions. Thus, not only the responsive releasing of Ce 3+ ions and 8-HQ can inhibit the underlying Al alloy, but the newly formed Al-HQ complex could indicate the location and severity of coating flaws through fluorescent emission under UV light. Electrochemical impedance evidenced that the composite epoxy coating containing 1 % mass Ce-HQ presents high corrosion resistance even after 504 h of salt spray test, showing 90 % corrosion refraining efficiency. This work may enlighten an approach to developing self-healing and self-diagnosis coating for premature corroded Al alloy beneath coatings via reactive release and fluorescent visualization.

Ni-Mg-Al hydrotalcite-derived materials promoted with Ce, Zr or Fe were prepared by the co-precipitation method, which exhibited excellent performance in steam reforming of toluene (SRT) at low temperature. Especially, Fe-doped catalyst had higher catalytic activity and stability at 400 °C, which maintained almost 100% toluene conversion during the SRT reaction (3 h). Moreover, it also had higher hydrogen production and better selectivity for hydrogen production. The physico-chemical characterizations and model simulation indicate its high dispersion of active sites and accessibility of reactants to active sites: uniform dispersion of active sites (SEM, TEM and EDX), large specific surface area (151 m 2 /g), pore volume (0.84 cm 3 /g) and average pore diameter (22.1 nm), small crystallite size (34.9 nm), desirable Ni species reducibility (TPR), high basicity (TPD), low metal carbide formation (XPS), and good adsorption affinity with toluene (−18.391 kJ mol −1 , DFT). Moreover, less carbon was deposited on the Fe-containing catalyst through measuring the amorphous carbon and CNTs by the TG-MS method, which was due to the tip-growth mechanism of CNTs. Considering lower toluene conversion temperature, higher hydrogen yield, and better resistance to carbon deposition, this study may be meaningful in development of SRT at low temperature.
