Ultra-sensitive hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) detection technology at low temperatures provides critical support for the application of one-time alert systems under extreme conditions, ensuring reliable monitoring of H 2 S in low-temperature environments and enhancing safety and practicability. In this study, we developed a novel low-temperature H 2 S sensor based on Cu/Cu 2 O nanoarrays, prepared through a combination of 2D electrodeposition in situ assembly and the hydrothermal method. The heterointerface between Cu nanowires and Cu 2 O nanocubes presents a high barrier, which can be modulated to zero through the formation of continuous Cu x S conductive channels via the vulcanization reaction, thereby achieving excellent sensitivity and selectivity towards H 2 S at low temperatures. At freezing temperatures and low H 2 S concentrations (≤20 ppm), the sensors show ideal recovery and reasonable sensitivity (R=150 to 10 ppm H 2 S at 0 °C). However, the response significantly increases (R=5624 at 10 ppm H 2 S at 50 °C) and recovery is lost under reversed conditions. First-principles calculations have confirmed that the enhanced H 2 S adsorption at the heterointerface is the primary reason for the robust response observed at 0 °C. Experimental results demonstrate that the Cu/Cu 2 O nanoarrays were capable of rapid detection of H 2 S at low temperatures through modulation of heterointerface barriers.

Cu-doped cerium oxides were successfully prepared by nitrate combustion method. The crysatlline phase evolution, micro morphology and photocatalytic performance of the products are systematically studied by XRD, SEM/EDX and degradation rate of methylene blue. The results show that at relative low temperature (<600°C), 20 mol% copper can be dissolved into CeO2 fluorite type cubic structure, however, at high temperature of 700°C, CuO phase desolution from CeO2 solid solution is detected by XRD, and confirmed by DTA for 5% Cu-doped sample. The as prepared photocatalysts show agglomeration of ultra fine particles with porous structure. Degradation results of methylene blue indicate that better photocatalytic performance is obtained for 5% Cu-doped CeO2 under the stimulated visible light than UV light irradiation (both 254 nm and 365 nm), even the power of former is half of the later. The loss of photocatalytic activity for higher doping samples (>5% Cu) is believed to be the serious agglomeration of the particles and desolution of CuO from CeO2 solid solution.

Heterogeneous metal–organic framework composites are widely used to catalyze the synthesis reaction of organic materials. Here, we report the use of a heterogeneous catalyst to catalyze the reaction of alcohols and amines to synthesize imines directly using a one-pot method. A low-dimensional Cu-MOF prepared by a simple surfactant-assisted method shows the morphology of nanorods. Cu-MOF nanorods provide an ideal support for preparing supported metal nanocatalysts. A reduction method was applied to immobilize the ultrafine noble metal Au and Pd nanoparticles on the surface of Cu-MOF nanorods to form a Cu-MOF/Au–Pd composite catalyst. Cu-MOF/Au–Pd catalyst is used to catalyze the reaction between alcohols and amines to form imines. Due to the synergy between different metal nanoparticles, it can effectively catalyze the reaction to form imines. In addition, Cu 2+ in Cu-MOF/Au–Pd catalyst facilitates the adsorption of substances by excess electrons and promotes product formation. After 12 h of catalytic reaction, the yield of imine is as high as 95%.

Commercially available and inexpensive ethylenediamine/Cu(OAc) 2 · H 2 O has been found to be a highly effective catalyst system for the cyanation of aryl bromides in the solvent of NMP. At the same time, the highly activated aryl chlorides with NO 2 groups gave corresponding benzonitriles in good yields. Similar to the previous observation, it is not necessary to use an excess of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] in the cyanation reaction (only 20 mol% of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] was used). In other hand, a more remarkable KI-accelerated effect was observed for the cyanation reaction: the addition of KI increased the yield from 6% to 91% in the cyanation of bromobenzene.

L10ordered FePt and FePtCu nanoparticles (NPs) with a good dispersion were successfully fabricated by a simple, green, one-step solid-phase reduction method. Fe (acac)3, Pt (acac)2, and CuO as the precursors were dispersed in NaCl and annealed at different temperatures with an H2-containing atmosphere. As the annealing temperature increased, the chemical order parameter (S), average particle size (D), coercivity (Hc), and saturation magnetization (Ms) of FePt and FePtCu NPs increased and the size distribution range of the particles became wider. The ordered degree,D,Hc, andMsof FePt NPs were greatly improved by adding 5% Cu. The highestS,D,Hc, andMswere obtained when FePtCu NPs annealed at 750 °C, which were 0.91, 4.87 nm, 12,200 Oe, and 23.38 emu/g, respectively. The structure and magnetic properties of FePt and FePtCu NPs at different annealing temperatures were investigated and the formation mechanism of FePt and FePtCu NPs were discussed in detail.

The development of efficient Cu–Ce catalysts for selective CO oxidation in hydrogen streams (CO-PROX) remains a critical challenge for hydrogen purification technologies. Herein, we report an acid-modified Cu–Ce/γ-Al2O3 catalyst synthesized through HCl-assisted wet impregnation and thermal aging, demonstrating exceptional low-temperature CO-PROX performance. The optimized CuCe0.8(Cl)0.2/γ-Al2O3 catalyst achieves superior CO conversion below 160 °C and maintains stable activity for 50 h at 160 °C. Mechanistic studies reveal that HCl modification induces dual enhancement effects: (1) increased Cu+ species density enhances CO adsorption capacity; (2) elevated Ce3+ concentration promotes oxygen vacancy formation for efficient O2 activation. Complementary characterization demonstrates that the acid treatment optimizes the active species dispersion and creates hierarchical pore structures in the γ-Al2O3 support, which facilitates reactant accessibility and stabilizes catalytic intermediates. The reaction mechanism involves synergistic cooperation between Cu+-mediated CO adsorption, oxygen vacancy-assisted O2 activation, and hydroxyl-assisted bicarbonate intermediate formation on the alumina support. This work establishes an effective acid-modification strategy for designing durable CO-PROX catalysts, advancing the development of a practical hydrogen purification system.

TpFO-PA, a novel spherical hollow mesoporous polyamide, was firstly synthesized by the reaction among 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB), furylamine and oxalyl chloride in using silica-gel nanoparticle as hard template, and the composite Cu(I)@TpFO-PA with high catalytic activities in C-N coupling reactions between (hetero)aryl bromide and (hetero)aryl amines under mild conditions was prepared basing on presence of N in the framework. A maximum activity of the catalyst with yield of C-N coupling product were about 311.9 g (product) /mol Cu(I) ·h and 95 % respectively, and the activity could be maintained at least 5 times after the catalyst was reused. The composite Cu(I)@TpFO-PA is a few heterogeneous catalysts reported in catalyzing coupling reaction between aromatic amines and brominated aromatic compounds.

Cu-Ag particles with different molar ratios have been prepared in the hyperbranched polyester matrix using ascorbic acid as a reducing agent. The third generation hyperbranched polyester has been synthesized by step by step polymerization using the first generation hyperbranched polyester as core molecular and 2, 2-dimethylol propionic acid as branched monomer. The synthesized hyperbranched polyester and Cu-Ag alloy were characterized by FT-IR, 1 H-NMR, UV-vis spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Laser particle size measurement, TEM, etc. The XRD and EDX studies confirm the formation of Cu-Ag alloy. Laser particle size measurement, SEM and TEM studies show that the particles of the Cu-Ag alloy are well-dispersed with average size of 120 nm. The thermal properties of the Cu-Ag alloy have been studied by thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The results show that the measurement values are close to the theoretical ones.

Ag-coated Cu particles (Cu@Ag particles) are highly anticipated bimetallic materials with wide electronic applications. However, it is still crucially challenging to obtain well-covered Ag shells and facilitate the synthetic process, and the sintering/migration behaviors of Cu@Ag particles are also poorly understood. In this study, we develop a facile Ag coating method for Cu@Ag particles with the assistance of double complexing agents. Electrochemical analysis reveals that the complexing effect can effectively reduce the potential difference of the Cu-Ag replacement reaction, and thereby improve the coating quality. Cu@Ag particles with compact and uniform Ag shells are obtained, with Ag contents as low as ~10 at%. The as-prepared Cu@Ag particles show significantly improved oxidation resistance and reliable sintering property. Moreover, the Cu@Ag particles exhibit superior ion migration resistance even better than both Cu and Ag particles under an oxygen-containing environment. The results could provide helpful basis for understanding the synthesis, sintering and migration processes of Cu@Ag particles. The comprehensive performance of Cu@Ag particles makes them a promising interconnected material in future electronic industry.

This paper explored the effect of trace Cu(Ⅱ) (5 μM) on the degradation of Orange Ⅱ by Fe(Ⅱ)/Hydroxylamine (HA)/Persulfate (PS) system. The results showed that the addition of trace Cu(Ⅱ) not only improved the degradation efficiency of Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS system, but also broadened the pH range of Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS degradation Orange Ⅱ (2–10). Increasing the dosage of Fe(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ) and PS will promote the degradation of Orange Ⅱ by the Cu(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS system. However, the optimal dosage of HA is 0.03 mM. Lower or excessive HA dosage is not conducive to the degradation of Orange Ⅱ by the Cu(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS system. Scavenger experiments show that SO 4 ·- is the main reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the Cu(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS system. In both acidic and alkaline environments, Cu(Ⅰ) reduced by hydroxylamine can promote the conversion of Fe(Ⅲ) to Fe(Ⅱ). In acidic environment, Fe(Ⅱ) reduced by Cu(Ⅰ) is the reason why trace Cu(Ⅱ) can enhance the efficiency of Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS system to degrade Orange Ⅱ. However, in alkaline environment, Cu(I) reduced by hydroxylamine is the main participant in the production of SO 4 ·- by activating persulfate, which is also the main reason for broadening the applicable pH of Fe(Ⅱ)/HA/PS for Orange Ⅱ degradation to alkaline environment.

Application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the field of gas separation has been widely explored, however most of the reported MOFs are sensitive to hydrolysis, restricting their applications under practical environments. In this work, Cu-BTC with distinguishing high resistance to hydrolysis was prepared through in-situ functionalization with sodium citrate (SC). The obtained Cu-BTC-SC can hold its structure integrity and preserve its original gas adsorption capacity even after 10 days' immersion in water. On this basis, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) containing different loadings of Cu-BTC-SC in Pebax® 1657 were fabricated and applied for CO 2 /N 2 and CO 2 /CH 4 separation under humid conditions. The MMMs displayed excellent long-term stability towards humidified test conditions as well as improved CO 2 separation performance compared with the pristine Pebax® 1657 membrane. Specifically, the membrane incorporated with 15 wt% of Cu-BTC-SC demonstrated a CO 2 permeance of 1102.5 GPU together with a CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 54.8 for the CO 2 /N 2 mixed gas, and a CO 2 permeance of 1069.6 GPU together with a CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 32.5 for the CO 2 /CH 4 mixed gas, surpassing the Robeson upper bounds for CO 2 /N 2 and CO 2 /CH 4 separation. These results demonstrate a potential effective strategy for improving the water stability of MOFs and suggest a promising candidate for the fabrication of high performance membranes for practical large-scale CO 2 separation applications.

The optimized reaction conditions (160 °C, oxygen pressure 1.5 MPa, HNO 3 concentration 25 wt%, HNO 3 : substrate 0.5:1) use 1.0 mol% CuI as catalyst. The dosage of HNO 3 in the new process is only 25% of the stoichiometric amount and 12.5% of the amount of the traditional process. The NO
