Dual-function and multi-function sensors can use the same material or detection system to achieve the purpose of detection of two or more substances. Due to their high sensitivity and specificity, dual-function and multi-function sensors have potential applications in many fields. In this article, we designed a dual-function sensor to detect Sn(II) and ascorbic acid (AA) based on the inner filter effect (IFE) between NaYF4:Yb,Er@NaYF4@PAA (UCNPs@PAA) and Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex. Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex has strong absorption in most of the ultraviolet-visible light range (350 nm–600 nm), and this absorption band overlaps with the green emission peak of UCNPs@PAA at 540 nm; Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex can significantly quench the green light emission of UCNPs@PAA. When Sn(II) or AA is added to the UCNPs@PAA/Fe(III)/1,10-phenanthroline, they can reduce Fe(III) to Fe(II). Fe(II) can react with 1,10-phenanthroline to form an orange complex, thereby quenching the green light emission of UCNPs@PAA. And the quenching efficiency is related to the concentration of Sn(II) and AA; there is a linear relationship between quenching efficiency and the concentration of Sn(II) and AA, within a certain concentration range the detection limits of this dual-function sensor for Sn(II) and AA are 1.08 μM and 0.97 μM, respectively. In addition, the dual-function sensor can also detect Sn(II) and AA in tap and spring water.

A silica-based adsorbent (P507@COF-TpAzo/SiO 2 ) with nitrogen and phosphorus donors was prepared for industrial separation and recovery of Sn(IV) by in-situ growth of covalent organic framework (COF) on a silica substrate combined with vacuum impregnation. The materials were tested and analyzed by the scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and other characterization techniques, which demonstrated that the adsorbent has an enormous specific surface area, excellent heat resistance, and a regular morphological structure. The static experimental results showed that the adsorbent displayed remarkable selectivity for Sn(IV) in high HCl and HNO 3 concentration environments, with excellent kinetics (∼60 min) and outstanding adsorption capacities (60.02 mg/g in 3 M HCl, 92.59 mg/g in 3 M HNO 3 ) in different media at 3 M acidity. Cycle performance testing demonstrated that the adsorbent exhibited excellent stability (cycle times ≥8). Analysis using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that the synergistic adsorption results of N and P were reflected, mainly by the synergistic complexation of P=O and N=N-C. The potential sites for the adsorption of the adsorbent towards Sn(IV) were predicted by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and the adsorbent demonstrated a more stable binding energy with Sn(IV). Finally, dynamic separation and efficient enrichment (>210) of Sn(IV) in highly acidic wastewater were realized by designing a penetrating column separation process. P507@COF-TpAzo/SiO 2 satisfied the requirements of the dynamic adsorption experiments, bridging the research gap of dynamic separation, and provides a new strategy for the industrial removal and recovery of Sn(IV), as well as a way for environmental protection and industrial green production.

Alloy-type materials are regarded as prospective anode replacements for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to their attractive theoretical capacity. However, the drastic volume expansion leads to structural collapse and pulverization, resulting in rapid capacity decay during cycling. Here, a simple and scalable approach to prepare NiM (M: Sb, Sn)/nitrogen-doped hollow carbon tubes (NiM C) via template and substitution reactions is proposed. The nanosized NiM particles are uniformly anchored in the robust hollow N -doped carbon tubes via Ni N C coordination bonds, which not only provides a buffer for volume expansion but also avoids agglomerating of the reactive material and ensures the integrity of the conductive network and structural framework during lithiation/delithiation. As a result, NiSb C and NiSn C exhibit high reversible capacities (1259 and 1342 mAh/g after 100 cycles at 0.1 A/g) and fascinating rate performance (627 and 721 mAh/g at 2 A/g), respectively, when employed as anodes of LIBs. The electrochemical kinetic analysis reveals that the dominant lithium storage behavior of NiM C electrodes varies from capacitive contribution to diffusion contribution during the cycling corresponding to the activation of the electrode exposing more NiM sites. Meanwhile, M (Sb, Sn) is gradually transformed into stable NiM during the de-lithium process, making the NiM C structure more stable and reversible in the electrochemical reaction. This work brings a novel thought to construct high-performance alloy-based anode materials.

The in-situ polymerization of 1,3-dioxolane (PDOL) in battery cells has attracted extensive attention, however, the differences of Lewis acid initiators on the DOL monomer conversion (C%) and electrochemical properties has been ignored. Here, it is demonstrated that compare with Sn(OTf) 2 Lewis acid initiator, the gelation of DOL is achieved at the lower addition of In(OTf) 3 . By optimizing their content in the gelation process, their C% are comparable which are 95.7 % and 93.5 % for In(OTf) 3 and Sn(OTf) 2 , respectively. However, the higher ionic conductivity (7.1 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at room temperature), electrochemical window (~4.5 V) and Li + transference number (0.42) are obtained for DOL initiated with In(OTf) 3 , due to its lower molecular weight which is helpful to the intermolecular Li + transport along PDOL main chain; In addition, the Li/Li symmetrical cell of In(OTf) 3 can be stably cycled for >500 h at 3 mA cm −2 , with an over-potential of 178mv. The storage and cycling impedances of half cells further proves the stable interface of In(OTf) 3 initiated DOL toward to lithium metal in comparison with those of Sn(OTf) 2 . Scanning electron microscopy results show a denser and thinner interface in the DOL catalyzed by In(OTf) 3 . Finally, the assembled Li/LiFePO 4 battery delivers specific discharge capacity and capacity retention rates of 115.5mAh g −1 and 85 %, respectively after 300 cycles at 1C. Through the initiator selection, the DOL synthesis and electrochemical properties can be tuned, which further broadens the design idea of PDOL based solid polymer electrolyte.

Succinonitrile has shown significant promise for application in polymer electrolytes for solid-state lithium metal batteries due to its high ionic conductivity at low-temperature. However, the use of Succinonitrile is limited due to its corrosion of Li metal. Herein, we report a solid polymer electrolyte with high ionic conductivity (2.17 × 10 −3 S cm −1 , 35 °C) enhanced by Ti 3 C 2 T x . Corrosion of the Li anode is prevented due to the Succinonitrile molecules being efficiently anchored by Ti 3 C 2 T x . Meanwhile, the coordination environment of Li + is weakened due to the introduction of competitive coordination induction effects into the polymer electrolyte, resulting in efficient Li + conduction. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of the electrolyte are enhanced by modulating the ratio of Ti 3 C 2 T x to suppress the growth of Li dendrites. Therefore, Li||Li symmetric batteries deliver stable cycling up to 8000 h at 28 °C. LiFePO 4 ||Li full batteries exhibit excellent cycling stability of 151.7 mAh g −1 with a capacity retention of 99.3% after 300 cycles. This work not only presents a new idea to suppress the corrosion of the Li anode by Succinonitrile but also provides a simple, feasible, and scalable strategy for high-performance Li metal batteries.

This work presents a novel method to selectively convert levoglucosan to lactic acid (LA) via initially adding LA as the Brønsted acid together with modified Sn-β as the Lewis acid. Sn-β catalysts exchanged with various cations significantly enhance the yield of LA, following the order Sn-β < Sn-β–Na < Sn-β–K < Sn-β–Mg, Sn-β–Ca. The role of exchanged alkali ions stems from removing the remaining Brønsted acid sites in the zeolite and tuning the framework oxygen with more Lewis base sites. The exchange with alkaline earth cations such as Ca2+ and Mg2+ appears to be more effective in promoting the retro-aldol condensation due to the synergetic effect of their stronger Lewis acid that can stabilize the oxygen atom of deprotonated alkoxides during the reaction. The LA yield from levoglucosan can reach up to 66% on Sn-β–Ca under the optimized conditions. We also demonstrated that such a synergetic effect of alkaline-earth ion exchanged Sn-β shows great universality toward enhanced retro-aldol condensation, which can significantly promote the yield of methyl lactate over glucose conversion in methanol solvent.

Lactic acid is an important platform molecule in the synthesis of a wide range of chemicals. However, in aqueous solutions without alkali, its efficient preparation via the direct catalysis of sugars is hindered by a side dehydration reaction to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural due to Brønsted acid, which originates from organic acids. Herein, we report that a previously unappreciated combination of common two metal mixed catalyst (Zn-Sn-Beta) prepared via solid-state ion exchange synergistically promoted this reaction. In water without a base, a conversion exceeding 99% for sucrose with a lactic acid yield of 54% was achieved within 2 hours at 190 °C under ambient air pressure. Studies of the acid and base properties of the Zn-Sn-Beta zeolite suggest that the introduction of Zn into the Sn-Beta zeolite sequentially enhanced both the Lewis acid and base sites and the base sites inhibited a series of side reactions related to fructose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and its subsequent decomposition.

ABSTRACT: Electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)/gelatin (GT) scaffolds were developed to provide controlled release of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxy camptothecin (SN-38). Acetic acid was introduced to improve the miscibility of PCL and GT to produce a homogeneous nanofiber membrane mixture. The effect of SN-38 content in binary mixtures on processability, fiber morphology, water sorption, swelling, and drug release was investigated. Electrospun PCL/GT blend nonwoven fibers showed fiber surface roughness, decreased PCL crystallinity, and increased swelling with increasing drug content of 1, 2, and 4 wt %. Additionally, increasing the SN-38 concentration reduced the degradation rate of the GT. Furthermore, we hypothesize the existence of a drug content saturation point in the monoaxial fiber to explain the different drug release patterns of PG2 compared with those of PG1 and PG4. The matrix also showed good biodegradation and anti-tumor function. Our results demonstrate that SN-38-loaded PCL/GT fibers can be obtained by electrospinning. The SN-38-loaded fibers merit further evaluation as a means to potentially prevent locoregional recurrence following surgical tumor resection.

Sample preparation is a critical step to achieve reliable in situ chemical analysis. Sample mounting technique with a tin-based alloy was developed in recent years, which is particularly useful for high-precision volatile analyses by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). However, the success of this technique is hindered by challenges, such as complex alloy preparation and potential Pb contamination. Herein, we introduce a new Sn–Bi alloy preparation method that may overcome these hurdles and assess its potential as a standard preparation method for in situ volatile and isotope analyses. This new alloy can be manufactured with commercially available pure tin and bismuth metal (atomic Sn : Bi = 42 : 58), and its production requires only a heating plate and clean containers. This ensures its high accessibility to laboratories worldwide. The Pb content of the alloy is dependent on the tin and bismuth used. The material (Sn and Bi) from three different manufacturers were evaluated in this study, resulting in the virtually Pb-free MAC alloy (Pb <0.2 μg g−1). The SIMS U–Pb dating results of the zircon standards (Qinghu, Plešovice, and SA01) are consistent with the recommended values (within error). Furthermore, the mounted samples exhibit satisfactory relief on this alloy, suggesting that this alloy material is appropriate for the analysis of oxygen isotopes. The routine external precision of oxygen isotope ratios is better than 0.30‰ (2sd), on par with that obtained with epoxy mounts. The water background in the SIMS sample chamber can be recovered rapidly after sample transfer from the storage to the sample chamber. Hence, this tin-based alloy is suitable for sample mounting for SIMS volatile and isotope (incl. U–Pb) analyses.

Despite the multiple advantages of high tissue penetration depth, selectivity, and noninvasiveness of photothermal-assisted antitumor synergistic therapy, developing photothermal agents with multifunctional characteristics, desirable tumor therapeutic effects, and biological stability remains a key challenge. Herein, an electronic structure-regulated strategy is proposed to activate self-adaptive Sn–Fe electron pair centers (Sn2+/Sn4+ and Fe2+/Fe3+) through loading the electron donor Pt (Pt/SFO-1, -2, -3, -4). Experimental and theoretical calculations indicate that abundant dynamic active centers can facilitate the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which enables Pt/SFO samples to possess catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and oxidase (OXD) enzyme-like activities. Upon near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, Pt/SFO-2 with a Pt load of 0.9% achieves the highest ROS production, showing a 9-fold compared with SnFe2O4 and implements the synergistic therapy of photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The electronic state regulation of inorganic photothermal agents not only improves tumor therapeutic effects but also offers a novel strategy to regulate the electron structure of active centers.

RuO 2 supported on rutile TiO 2 or SnO 2 has been proved extremely effective for catalyzing the oxidation of HCl into Cl 2 . The supports play a crucial role in the catalyst systems. In this work, Ti-Sn oxides with different Sn/(Sn + Ti) molar ratios (0–0.2) were synthesized by a facile co-precipitation method as supports. The corresponding Ru/Ti-Sn oxide catalysts were investigated in HCl catalytic oxidation and systematically characterized to elucidate the role of Ti-Sn oxide supports on the process. The diffraction, spectroscopy and microscopy results reveal the crystal and surface structures of supports and catalysts. Among all the RuO 2 /Ti 1-x Sn x O 2 catalysts, RuO 2 /Ti 0.97 Sn 0.03 O 2 exhibits the best catalytic activity of 2.6 g Cl 2 ·g cat -1 ·h −1 with only 0.5% Ru loading and excellent stability on stream. Differed from the previous understanding, Ti 0.8 Sn 0.2 O 2 support containing the most rutile phase shows unsatisfying performance. The excessive Sn content renders more crystal disorder and volatile substrate, inevitably lowering the dispersion and stabilization of RuO 2 active phase. However, moderate Sn addition induces well-dispersed SnO 2 and rutile TiO 2 film, facilitating the dispersion of RuO 2 phase on the support surface with more active oxygen species. A large number of oxygen vacancies on Ti 0.97 Sn 0.03 O 2 can act as an active oxygen reservoir and boost catalytic performance.

BACKGROUND The conversion of glucose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) involves the isomerization of glucose to fructose catalyzed by Lewis acid and subsequent dehydration of fructose catalyzed by Brönsted acid. In this work, in order to obtain a high yield of 5-HMF, a series of Sn-Al-Beta catalysts containing both Lewis and Brönsted acid sites were prepared by a convenient solid state ion exchange (SSIE) method using partially dealuminated Beta zeolite and tin(II) acetate. RESULTS The obtained bifunctional catalysts were investigated for one-pot production of 5-HMF from glucose in the ionic liquid (IL) [C 4 mim]Cl. Among various catalysts, Sn-Al-Beta- 4 - 8 exhibited the best catalytic performance, giving a 5-HMF yield of 54% under optimal reaction conditions (393 K, 2 h), along with a glucose conversion of 81%. The Sn-Al-Beta- 4-8 catalyst and IL were regenerated by the extraction of 5-HMF, and the reactivity was reserved after five runs of recycling. In addition to glucose, the Sn-Al-Beta- 4-8 /[C 4 mim]Cl system was also proven to have the potential to effectively convert other carbohydrates into 5-HMF. CONCLUSION The results suggested that the catalyst is convenient to prepare and has preferable efficiency and stability in the conversion of carbohydrates into 5-HMF. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).
