Scrap aluminum (Al) alloy recycling is critical for energy conservation and decreasing carbon emissions. Conventional remelting process does not remove alloying elements, severely limiting the value and applications of recycled Al. To overcome this limitation, this study develops an efficient process for recovering pure Al from scrap Al alloys via soluble anode electrolysis in a designed MgCl 2 -KCl-NaCl (MKN) molten salt system. Real-time monitoring of the electrolysis process, time-dependent characterization of cathodic deposits, and electrochemical analyses reveal a three-stage cathodic deposition mechanism in the MKN molten salt system: initial underpotential deposition of Mg 2+ transitions to co-deposition of Mg 2+ and Al 3+ , and ultimately to exclusive reduction of Al 3+ , which is driven by progressive Al 3+ accumulation. The introduction of AlCl 3 proves pivotal, simultaneously enhancing Al 3+ deposition efficiency while effectively suppressing Mg 2+ co-reduction. Systematic optimization identifies 12.5 wt% AlCl 3 addition, 500 °C, and 0.15 A/cm 2 as the ideal operational parameters, achieving recycled Al with 99.84 wt% purity. The soluble anode electrolysis process in the MKN molten salt system represents an efficient and scalable alternative to conventional remelting. The developed process is capable of producing recycled Al with purity comparable to that of primary Al while addressing critical sustainability challenges in the Al industry.

In this work, a superhydrophobic magnetic photothermal flame-retardant polyurethane sponge (AH/Fe-MOF-P@Fe 3 O 4 @PA@PU) with efficient oil–water separation performance was prepared. After coating the polyurethane sponge with a phytic acid (PA) film, the new honeycomb-like “three-in-one” flame-retardant AH/Fe-MOF-P and magnetic nanoparticle Fe 3 O 4 were firmly bound to the sponge by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). AH/Fe-MOF-P@Fe 3 O 4 @PA@PU exhibited excellent superhydrophobicity (with a water contact angle of 155.3°), an oil–water separation efficiency of up to 99%, outstanding recyclability, and environmental stability. Utilizing its magnetic properties, it can be applied to special and complex oil spill treatments. The AH/Fe-MOF-P@Fe 3 O 4 @PA@PU composite exhibited exceptional photothermal properties and demonstrated highly efficient adsorption capabilities for high-viscosity crude oil. Furthermore, the modified sponge possessed remarkable flame-retardant properties, exhibiting the ability to self-extinguish within 2 s following ignition. The superhydrophobic magnetic flame-retardant polyurethane sponge has great potential as an effective oil spill remediation material.

The performance of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) can be enhanced through the utilization of multi-heteroatom doped, porous, and layered electrocatalysts. Nitrogen-doped graphene-like porous carbon (Cu–Fe–CN) was synthesized via a simple and cost-effective NaCl template method using maltose, FeCl3·6H2O, and CuCl2·H2O as precursors. This material exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the ORR. During the electrocatalysis process, the maltose-derived graphene-like porous carbon possesses abundant pores that facilitate rapid mass and electron transfer. Additionally, the incorporation of polyatomic dopants and the construction of the porous carbon framework result in an abundance of active sites. The optimized Cu–Fe–CN electrocatalyst exhibited a more positive half-wave potential (E1/2 = 0.87 V) in alkaline media, surpassing that of the commercial Pt/C (E1/2 = 0.84 V), and demonstrated exceptional durability. The average discharge voltage of Al–air batteries with the Cu–Fe–CN catalyst is always higher than that of Al–air batteries with the commercial Pt/C catalyst, at the same current density. The present study showcases a convenient approach for fabricating porous low-metal catalysts for the ORR, highlighting their immense potential in ORR catalysis and aluminum–air batteries.

In this work, a magnetic adsorption material based on metal–organic framework (Fe3O4@ZnAl-LDH@MIL-53(Al)) was synthesized and used as an adsorbent in the process of magnetic solid phase extraction. Then, a high-performance liquid chromatograph was used to quantitatively detect triazole fungicides in samples. In order to verify the successful preparation of the material, a series of characterization analyses were carried out. Besides, the key parameters that may affect the extraction efficiency have been optimized, and under optimal conditions the three triazole fungicides showed good linearity in the range of 10–1000 μg/L (R2 ≥ 0.9796); Limit of detections were ranged from 0.013 to 0.030 μg/mL. Finally, the established method was applied to the detection of triazole fungicides in four fresh juice samples. The results showed that the target analyte was not detected in all the test samples. By detecting the recoveries (73.3–104.3%) and coefficient variation (RSD ≤ 6.8%) of triazole fungicides in fortified samples, it proved that this established method meets the requirements of pesticide residue analysis and showed excellent application potential.

In this paper, the potential applications of metal–organic framework (MOF) materials as fiber coatings for the solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water samples were explored. Fibers coated with MIL-53(Al, Cr, Fe) materials were fabricated by an adhesive method for SPME. The quantitation was performed by gas chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (GC–MS/MS) using the multiple reaction monitoring mode. Among the three MIL-53(M) coatings, MIL-53(Al) showed the highest extraction efficiency towards PAHs under the current fabrication procedure. Under optimized conditions, the MIL-53(Al)-coated fiber showed good precision (relative standard deviation <12.5%), low detection limits (0.10 ng L−1 to 0.73 ng L−1, S/N = 3), and good linearity (R2 > 0.98) for aqueous solutions containing 16 PAH . The fiber also offered high thermal and chemical stability. The method developed based on MIL-53(Al) SPME–GC–MS/MS was successfully applied in the analysis of real water samples. Based on the simulation results, the PAHs were adsorbed on MIL-53(Al) primarily through the hydrophobic and π–π interactions between PAHs and the organic linker of the material. The results presented in this paper indicate that water-stable MOF materials have great potential for the SPME of aromatic compounds in water samples.

Background Diabetic wounds present substantial therapeutic challenges, primarily due to their heightened susceptibility to infection and impaired healing. Effective management requires both local pathogen control and enhanced tissue regeneration. To address these dual clinical needs, we developed an electroactive and photothermal silk fibroin/polylactic acid/Al–Ti₃C₂Tₓ MXene Janus nanofibre membrane using electrospinning and spraying techniques. Results By integrating electrospinning and electrospraying, we fabricated a Janus nanofibre dressing with distinct structural, hydrophilic, and electroactive properties on each side. Upon near-infrared light irradiation, the dressing demonstrated rapid and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. At an intensity of 0.5 W/cm 2 , the resulting photothermal effect achieved rapid sterilisation within 5 min. When combined with external electrical stimulation, the dressing also facilitated fibroblast proliferation and migration. Moreover, this dual therapy upregulated EGF, VEGF, and TGF-β expressions, thereby significantly accelerating the healing of chronic diabetic wounds. These results underscore the strong therapeutic potential of this approach for effectively managing complex diabetic wounds. Conclusion This novel biomimetic Janus membrane effectively combines photothermal antibacterial action and electrical stimulation to support wound healing. The multifunctional electrospun dressing offers a promising framework for designing advanced wound care materials specifically for infected diabetic wounds.

The growing demand for lithium in energy storage batteries has driven interest in extracting lithium from shale gas wastewater as a sustainable alternative to traditional mining. To address challenges such as high cycling loss of adsorbent powder and complex operational procedures, this study developed adsorbent spheres by pelletizing Al-modified H 1.33 Mn 1.67 O 4 powder with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the skeleton material, and introducing cellulose acetate (CA) or Pluronic F127 as hydrophilic modifiers. CA-modified powder exhibited superior mechanical stability, internal porosity, and hydrophilicity. These properties reduced interference from organic matter and allowed a lithium adsorption capacity of 20.2 mg/g, surpassing the 18.8 mg/g capacity of unmodified PVC particles. Adsorption behavior followed the Freundlich isotherm model, while pseudo-second-order kinetics indicated that multi-step and multi-layer chemisorption governed lithium uptake. In fixed-bed filtration experiments, the optimal empty bed contact time (EBCT) was determined to be 40 min, leading to an adsorption saturation bed volume more than 40 times the empty bed volume. Desorption enrichment provided lithium concentrations of approximately 200 mg/L. The adsorbent maintained its adsorption capacity over 10 adsorption-desorption cycles, with manganese dissolution losses below 0.3 % and in some cases as low as 0.2 %. These findings confirm the durability and efficacy of the novel composite adsorbent in lithium recovery, offering a significant step toward more efficient and sustainable lithium extraction from treated shale gas wastewater.

The existing TUF membranes often face challenges such as declining permeation flux and insufficient separation selectivity. This study proposes to improve the above problems by the synergistic effect of Mg–Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) and tannic acid (TA) etched metal–organic frameworks (MOFs): (1) TUF membranes with adjustable interlayer distances and multi-level mass transfer channels were constructed by doping LDH two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets; (2) TAZIF-L (Co) etched by TA was introduced. TA inhibited the swelling of LDH nanosheets through coordination and enhanced the interface binding between ZIF-L (Co) and the substrate, thereby suppressing its shedding. The results showed that TA can etch ZIF-L (Co), and the membrane prepared after etching has better selectivity and stability of dye/salt separation. Taking MTAZIF-0.02 as an example, the pure water flux was 88.23 L m −2 h −1 , which was 1.91 times that of MLDH. The removal rate of congo red (CR) solution was 92.56%. The NaCl rejection in methyl blue (MB)/NaCl solution was 10.88% and in CR/NaCl solution was 10.57%. This study provides an experimental basis for the construction of highly selective ultrafiltration membrane for the treatment of high concentration dye/salt wastewater.

Monoamine neurotransmitters play vital roles in cognitive and various physiological and pathophysiological processes, but their trace levels, small sample volumes, and complex biological matrices in biological samples pose significant analytical challenges. This study developed a novel method for the simultaneous quantification of six monoamine neurotransmitters—tyrosine, vanillylmandelic acid, tryptophan, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid, and homovanillic acid—in human serum and urine. The method utilizes magnetic solid-phase extraction coupled with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). A multifunctional magnetic composite, polyethylenimine@polymer dopamine hydrochloride@NH 2 -MIL-53(Al)-SiO 2 @Fe 3 O 4 , was synthesized, exhibiting high extraction selectivity and capacity and achieving an extraction range of 9.61–25.4 nmol/mg for the target neurotransmitters. The analytical method, optimized for the aforementioned composite, exhibited robust linearity for all six monoamine neurotransmitters, with correlation coefficients ( R 2 ) exceeding 0.998. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) ranged from 1.1 to 22 ng/L, indicating high sensitivity. Recovery rates for the targeted analytes varied between 94.5 % and 112 %, and relative standard deviations remained within the range of 1.5–9.4 %. These findings confirm that the developed methodology is sensitive, accurate, selective, and reliable for the quantitative determination of trace monoamine neurotransmitters in complex biological samples.

Herein, a specific core–shell MFI zeolite was designed for the methanol to propylene (MTP) reaction. The core–shell structure of Al-ZSM-5@B-ZSM-5 and Al-ZSM-5@silicalite-1 were easily obtained via a two-step procedure, in which Al-ZSM-5 aggregate acted as the core and B-ZSM-5 or silicalite-1 as the shell. Their core–shell structures, acidity distribution and pore properties were characterized systemically, and new insights were gained into the synergetic effect of acid property and diffusion on the MTP reaction. The Al-ZSM-5@B-ZSM-5 zeolite exhibited a superior catalytic performance with a lifetime of 350 h (WHSV = 3 h−1), propylene selectivity of 49% and high turnover number of 4.3 × 106, while for the Al-ZSM-5 core, the corresponding values were 210 h, 43% and 5.2 × 105, respectively. Al-ZSM-5@silicalite-1 displayed the second best performance with the values of 250 h, 45% and 2.9 × 106, respectively. Gradient strong acid reduction from the core to the shell via the epitaxial growth of the silicalite-1 or B-ZSM-5 shell combined with an appropriate strong/weak acid ratio plays a vital role in inhibiting the hydrogen transfer reaction and thus gives a low consumption of propylene and low coke deposition. For the hydrogen transfer reaction of alkenes to form alkanes and aromatics, strong acid sites are required. Moreover, the acid sites originally existing on the external surface of the Al-ZSM-5 core were converted into internal acid sites due to the formation of an interface zone in the core–shell zeolite, possessing micropore characteristics, which in turn improve the shape selectivity and suppress coke deposition. Especially, the Al-ZSM-5@B-ZSM-5 zeolite displayed more weak acid sites and few strong acid sites on its shell surface, which are beneficial for the low formation of external coke and also account for the highest utilization of acid sites in the MTP reaction, high propylene selectivity and long lifetime.

In the present study, new fiber-metal laminates (FMLs) are manufactured from the lay-up process of the carbon fibers-tungsten carbide nanoparticles/phthalonitrile (CFs-WC/PN) composite and the Al–Li alloy. The properties of the developed hybrids are analyzed and compared with those of the monolithic alloy. Generally speaking, the results indicate that the amount of the fiber considerably affects the tensile properties. The mechanical properties of the FMLs show enhancements over both the Al–Li alloy and the CFs/PN composite individually. When the number of the composite layers varies from 4 to 12, the ultimate tensile strength of the prepared FMLs increase from 335.3 to 690.5 MPa. The FMLs present a ductile behavior (up to a failure strain of 20%), which can be attributed to the ductile fracture morphology of the Al–Li alloy. These improvements are the result of the synergistic combination of the high strength of composites and the superior ductility of metals. In the meantime, the gamma rays (γ-rays) shielding test reveals that increasing the weight amount of the tungsten carbide (WC) nanoparticles in the composite noticeably improves the screening ratio, reaching the exceptional value of 46% for the hybrid containing 20 wt% of WC.
