In this study, simulated fly ash containing CuO/CuCl 2 was heated at 350 °C in a flow of N 2 and also in a nitrogen flow containing 10 vol% H 2 , to evaluate the influence of hydrogen adding on dioxin formation. The total polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/F) output derived from the CuO sample under N 2 and 10 % H 2 was 7.382 and 0.708 ng/g, respectively. As for CuCl 2 , it was 589 and 46.1 ng/g, respectively. The results show that the hydrogen adding has a good inhibition effect on PCDD/F formation; the inhibition rate was higher than 90 % for PCDD/Fs. HCl and NH 3 were detected by Gasmet in the flue gas; the probable inhibition mechanism of hydrogen reaction was proposed, based on our measurements and others’ researches.

Chitosan-based pluronic thermo-sensitive hydrogels represent a class of biomaterials characterized by their favorable biocompatibility and exceptional thermo-sensitive properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate their potential as carriers for embedding α-Mangostin (α-M), a bioactive compound derived from mangosteen peel, with the aim of inhibiting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). During the synthesis process, chitosan (CS), tannic acid (TA), pluronic F-127 (F127), and pluronic F-68 (F68) were combined to form the thermo-sensitive hydrogel, into which α-M was physically incorporated through crosslinking (designated as CTFF@α-M). We are very interested in the results obtained during the research process. The results of fluorescence imaging in small animals showed that CTFF extended the residence time of α-M in the body from 3 to 9 days, improved the bioavailability of α-M, and achieved the goal of sustained drug release. In vitro antibacterial experiments showed that CTFF@α-M (30 mg/mL) had an inhibition rate of 79.69% against MRSA, which was higher than CTFF@amoxicillin (AM) (5 mg/mL) increased by 71.68%. This study is expected to provide new insights into the integration of biomaterials and natural therapy, and emphasize the therapeutic potential of thermosensitive hydrogels and α-M in antibacterial treatment, especially in the fight against MRSA infection. Graphic In this study, a CTPP hydrogel was prepared using a physical cross-linking method, and α-M was encapsulated to create the CTPP@α-M drug-loaded hydrogel. Various characterization techniques, including SEM, FT-IR, and XRD, were employed to confirm its physicochemical properties. The hydrogel exhibited excellent water solubility, swelling capacity, sustained release characteristics, and biocompatibility, with the ability to transform into a semi-solid gel at 37 °C. In vitro experiments demonstrated that the CTPP@α-M hydrogel showed a powerful inhibitory effect on MRSA, exhibiting strong resistance to antibiotic resistance. Infection experiments using a mouse model confirmed that CTPP@α-M not only accelerated wound healing but also significantly reduced bacterial counts at the wound site. Moreover, the CTPP@α-M group significantly decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines while increasing the levels of anti-inflammatory factors, indicating its promising anti-inflammatory properties. Collectively, these data suggest that CTPP@α-M is a highly effective antibacterial thermo-sensitive hydrogel with excellent performance.

Chiral cholesteric molecular tweezer 7d was synthesized and its influences on changes in the ultraviolet (UV) and fluorescence spectra of various anions were investigated. The results displayed that molecular tweezer 7d selectively recognized F−ions in dimethyl sulfoxide with a detection limit of 5.14 μmol/L, while other anions had little interference. On this basis, a method for the rapid detection of F−ions by host molecular tweezer 7d was established, and the naked-eye detection of F−was realized through the unique yellow color of the complex solution. According to the determination of F−ions in real food samples, it was proved that the established method had good application prospects in F−ion detection.Keywords:cholesteric molecular tweezer;fluoride ions;naked-eye detection;specific recognition;food samples

A series of Ni and F ion doped LiMn2O4 composite cathode materials are synthesized via a sol–gel method with citric acid as the chelating agent. The morphology and structure of LiNixMn2−xO4−yFy were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS and the electrochemical performance was tested and characterized by CV and EIS. The results showed that Ni and F ions were uniformly dispersed in the lattice without changing the structure and morphology of LiMn2O4. LiNi0.03Mn1.97O3.95F0.05 exhibits an excellent electrochemical performance among all the samples, and delivers an initial discharge capacity of 120.3 mA h g−1 at 1C and with a retention of 94.5% (25 °C) and 80.4% (55 °C) after the 100th cycle respectively. The results demonstrated that the dual-doping of Ni and F ions in lithium manganate can prevent the manganate from dissolving in the electrolyte and enhance the cycling performance at elevated temperatures, exhibiting excellent performance at different discharge rates.

Aqueous supercapacitors have occupied a significant position among various types of stationary energy storage equipment, while their widespread application is hindered by the relatively low energy density. Herein, N/F co-doped carbon materials activated by manganese clusters (NCM) are constructed by the straightforward experimental routine. Benefiting from the elevated conductivity structure at the microscopic level, the optimized NCM-0.5 electrodes exhibited a remarkable specific capacitance of 653 F g−1at 0.4 A g−1and exceptional cycling stability (97.39% capacity retention even after 40,000 cycles at the scanning rate of 100 mV s−1) in a neutral 5 M LiCl electrolyte. Moreover, we assembled an asymmetric device pairing with a VOxanode (NCM-0.5//VOx), which delivered a durable life span of 95% capacity retention over 30,000 cycles and an impressive energy density of 77.9 Wh kg−1. This study provides inspiration for transition metal element doping engineering in high-energy storage equipment.

The development of efficient adsorbents for perfluorinated electronic specialty gases’ (F-gases) recovery presents significant challenges in the chip plasma etching process. In this study, we focus on preparing Ti- and W-replaced MFI zeolites, which offer abundant Lewis acid sites, to enhance the separation of F-gases toward N2. Through single-component gas adsorption and ideal adsorbed solution theory selectivity analyses, the Ti- and W-doped MFI zeolites demonstrate remarkable separation performance. Additionally, dynamic breakthrough experiments have confirmed the effective capture of F-gases using Ti- and W-doped MFI zeolites. The intrinsic adsorption mechanism was also investigated by the Grand Canonical Monte Carlo and independent gradient model (IGM) simulations. IGM results indicate that there is a strong charge transfer interaction between the polar Lewis acid sites in the MFI channel and F-gases with high polarizability. These results highlight the promising potential of MFI zeolites with abundant Lewis acid sites for addressing F-gas capture in the semiconductor industries.

In situ Raman spectroscopy revealed that transiting H2O/NaX (∼64) solutions into an ice VI phase and then into an ice VII phase at a temperature of 298 K requires excessive pressures with respect to pure water. The increase of the critical pressures varies with the solute type in the Hofmeister series order: X = I > Br > Cl > F ∼ 0. The results suggest that the solute hydration creates electric fields that lengthen and soften the O:H nonbond and meanwhile shorten and stiffen the H–O bond through O–O Coulomb repulsion. Compression, however, does the opposite to solute electrification upon the O:H–O bond relaxation. Therefore, compression of the aqueous solutions recovers the electrification-deformed O:H–O bond first and then proceeds to the phase transitions, which requires excessive energy for the same sequence of phase transitions. Ice exclusion of solute disperses the frequencies of characteristic phonons and the critical pressures with unlikely new bond formation.

The corrosion characteristics of 12Cr2W2Mn Ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steel before and after Au-ions irradiation in static lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) have been investigated at 400 °C for 100 h. The results show that the samples without irradiation have many unequal size Fe 3 O 4 particles and little Cr-rich oxide after LBE corrosion test, and the thickness of corrosion layer is 4.4 μm. The irradiation samples display plenty compact triangular (Fe,Cr) 3 O 4 and some Cr-rich oxide, and the thickness of corrosion layer is 4.4 μm with some cracks. Au-ions irradiation enahnced the LBE corrosion of F/M steel, which could be attributed to the irradiation defects provide diffusion path of O atoms in liquid LBE. A schematic model was presented to understand the effect of irradiation damage on LBE corrosion behavior of F/M steel.

Bisphenol F (BPF) is an emerging environmental pollutant widely present in surface water and wastewater systems. Microbial activity is crucial in driving its degradation, offering a potential avenue for mitigating its environmental impact. Although the degradation pathway for BPF has been identified in various bacteria, the biodegradation mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we isolated a highly efficient BPF-degrading strain of Sphingobium yanoikuyae DN12, which could utilize BPF as the sole carbon and energy source for growth, from a river sediment in Anhui Province, China. Through ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) analysis, we found that oxidation and hydrolysis are key steps for BPF biodegradation. Utilizing whole-genome sequencing, comparative transcriptomics analysis, and biochemical identification, a gene cluster bpf was identified to be involved in BPF degradation. BpfAB is a two-component oxidoreductase responsible for converting BPF to 4,4'-dihydroxybenzophenone (DHBP). BpfC is a Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenase responsible for converting DHBP to 4-hydroxyphenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate (HPHB). Isotope tracing demonstrated that the oxygen atom incorporated by BpfAB originates from water, whereas that incorporated by BpfC derives from molecular oxygen (O2). BpfD is an α/β hydrolase responsible for converting HPHB to 4-hydroxybenzoate and 1,4-hydroquinone. Analysis of the taxonomic and habitat of 325 prokaryotic genomes revealed that BpfA-like homologs are predominantly found in the phylum Pseudomonadota, primarily inhabiting soil and aquatic environments. This study enhances our understanding of the biodegradation mechanism of BPF and provides guidance for the effective remediation of BPF-contaminated environments.

By ingeniously using a (imino)coumarin-precursor, three reactive fluorogenic probes of MP , FP, and FMP have been fabricated in a single facile synthetic route. MP and FP are able to respectively act as selective “turn-on” fluorescent probes for detecting Hg 2+ and F − in buffer solution via specific analyte-induced reactions. Linear ranges for the detection of Hg 2+ and F − are 0–10 μM and 0–100 μM with the limits of detection (LODs) of 4.0 × 10 −8 M and 1.14 × 10 −6 M (3δ/slope), respectively. FMP is able to work as a molecular “AND” logic gate-based fluorogenic probe for monitoring the coexistence of Hg 2+ and F − via a multistep reaction cascade. The analytes-induced sensing mechanisms have been determined by using high-performance liquid chromatography analysis (HPLC). In addition, three probes show negligible toxicity under the experimental conditions, and are successfully used for monitoring Hg 2+ and F − in living cells with good cell permeability. The success of the work demonstrates that ingenious utility of specific analyte-induced reactions and conventional concepts on the appropriate molecular scaffold can definitely deliver tailor-made probes for various intended sensing purposes.

Tin-based perovskite material is the best choice to replace heavy metal element lead during the last several years. Cs 2 SnI 6 with Sn 4+ is a fascinating optoelectronic material, which is a more air-stable composite cesium tin halide peroxide variant from CsSnI 3 . However, the optoelectronic performance between N and P type of Cs 2 SnI 6 varies considerably. Herein, we synthesized uniform Cs 2 SnI 6 by modified two-step method, which thermal evaporated CsI firstly, and followed annealing in the SnI 4 and I 2 vapor at 150 °C resulted in uniform Cs 2 SnI 6 films. SnF 4 is used as a dopant source to improve the optoelectronic properties of Cs 2 SnI 6 films. Results indicate that good crystallinity was obtained for all films and the doped films underwent a crystalline plane meritocracy transition. The doped films had a flat, non-porous morphology with large grains. The high transmittance of the doped films in the infrared region led to the avoidance of self-generated thermal decomposition. With the help of F − , the films became more conductive and had higher carrier mobility. DFT calculations showed that doping with F reduced the surface energy of (004), resulted in a preferred orientation transition in the crystal of Cs 2 SnI 6 . Fluorine doped double layer perovskite materials would have a broader application prospect.
