Flexible piezoelectric materials that combine high performance and outstanding flexibility are imperative for advancing next-generation wearable electronics, self-powered sensors, and energy harvesters. The creation of useful piezoelectricity in piezoelectrics requires a poling process via the temporary application of a strong electric field, which introduces risks including electrical breakdown and thermal depolarization. Here, a self-aligned polarization state is realized in compositional graded Ti-doped BiFeO 3 films via the formation of defect dipoles and the spatial modulation of strain distributions. The down-graded film, among those with different configurations, manifests a notable upward initial polarization ( P 0 = −15.7 μC cm −2 ) and a substantial internal bias field ( E bias = 167.2 kV cm −1 ). The prototype piezoelectric harvester based on the flexible down-graded film can deliver a maximum output power of 2.26 μW at a load resistance of 3.52 MΩ, a high sensitivity of 5.92 V N −1 without the need for external poling treatment, and robust mechanical durability of 8000 cycles. These advances in self-poling enable the derived films to offer significant freedom to design flexible piezoelectric devices that are well suited for microscale energy harvesters and sensors.

Driven by the global goal of carbon neutrality, solar-driven photocatalytic overall water splitting provides a critical pathway for directly converting light energy into storable green hydrogen. However, solar to hydrogen efficiency is often limited by the slow kinetics of charge carrier separation, migration, and surface reactions. Although MOF/inorganic semiconductor heterojunctions can promote carrier separation by establishing built-in electric fields, dense inorganic phases often block MOF pores and shield active sites, thereby compromising the structural advantages of MOFs. Herein, we propose a dual-ligand engineering strategy to regulate the electronic structure and piezo-photocatalytic behavior of titanium-based MOFs, achieving efficient piezo-photocatalytic overall water splitting. By co-coordinating terephthalic acid and 2-aminoterephthalic acid with titanium precursors, the as-synthesized material preserves the high specific surface area of MOFs while introducing amino-functionalized linkers into the framework. The incorporation of amino ligands breaks the centrosymmetry of the material and endows the dual-ligand MOF with piezoelectricity. Under the synergistic excitation of light and ultrasound, carrier recombination is significantly suppressed and charge transfer within the framework is accelerated, enabling efficient and stable overall water splitting without sacrificial agents. This study provides a feasible dual-ligand modulation strategy for improving MOF-based piezo-photocatalytic overall water splitting and elucidates the synergistic regulation mechanism of charge dynamics and surface reaction kinetics under multi-field coupling.

The band gap width has always been the main reason for the low photocatalytic performance of TiO 2 semiconductors. “Band gap engineering” is often used to change the band gap width of TiO 2 . On this basis, the impurity band gap was induced below the TiO 2 conduction band by regulating N element. What's interesting was that N element adjusted the valence state of adjacent Ti element and caused the generation of oxygen vacancy . This is due to the extraction of neutral oxygen atoms, resulting in electron transfer to the Ti cation band structure . The 300-N-T catalyst exhibited the best photocatalytic hydrogen production performance under visible light, which was 307.65 μmol/(g·h) and was 61.53 times higher than that of anatase. And the concentration of Ti 3+ defects and oxygen vacancy reduced with decreasing of N content in TiO 2 . According to Kubelke Munk formula, the band gap of 300-N-T photocatalyst was narrowed to 2.73 eV, which indicated that there are impurity energy levels near the CB and VB of TiO 2 material. The Ti 3+ ions as the active site of the photocatalytic reaction was confirmed by instantaneous photocurrent response and EIS characteristic. This study revealed the structure-activity relationship between the content of N element, Ti 3+ ions and oxygen vacancy in TiO 2 materials, as well as the decisive process of defect induced visible light catalysis.

Selective epoxidation and allylic oxidation of cyclohexene were realized in the presence of BEA-Ti and (metallo)porphyrin catalysts. The integration of BEA-Ti and porphyrin H 2 MTPP afforded cyclohexene oxide with excellent selectivity (cyclohexene oxide/ 2-cyclohexen-1-one=85:15). BEA-Ti and metalloporphyrin MnMTPP yielded 2-cyclohexen-1-one with high selectivity (cyclohexene oxide/ 2-cyclohexen-1-one=12:88). Resulting active species involving of (metallo)porphyrin, Ti IV sites and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) promoted the oxidation process of cyclohexene. A possible mechanism resulting in the formation cyclohexene oxide and 2-cyclohexen-1-one was proposed. The outer-sphere effect constructed by (metallo)porphyrin, Ti IV sites and TBHP on the surface of BEA-Ti framework improved the epoxidation and allylic oxidation both in the conversion and selectivity.

The emerging oscillatory pressure sintering technology is used to prepare high-performance Al 2 O 3 -Ti(C,N) ceramic tools for high-speed cutting. By recording the displacement during sintering, the sintering shrinkage rate of the Al 2 O 3 -Ti(C,N) composite was calculated, and the stress exponent n and sintering activation energy Q were calculated according to creep theory to determine the densification mechanism. In addition, the evolution of phases, microstructure and hardness of the composite was also observed. Results show that during oscillatory pressure sintering process at 1400 °C and 1300 °C, the stress exponent of Al 2 O 3 -Ti(C,N) composite is around 2.2 and the sintering activation energy is 486 kJ mol −1 , indicating that the densification mechanism is a diffusion-controlled grain boundary sliding of Al 2 O 3 phase. Additionally, as the oscillatory pressure increases, the average grain size of the Al 2 O 3 decreases and the Vickers hardness increases. Hardness achieves the highest 22.7 GPa when the median oscillatory pressure is 70 MPa at 1400 °C, which is 1 GPa higher than that of static pressure of 70 MPa.

Magnetic carbon-based microwave absorption materials (MAMs) derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been regarded as promising candidates for addressing the electromagnetic pollution. The construction of magnetic carbon-based MAMs derived from MOFs with ferromagnetic centers (Fe, Co, Ni etc.) and their composites has become a mainstream in recent years. However, MOFs with non-magnetic centers have received less attentions due to the challenges in achieving magnetic-dielectric synergistic effect and proper impedance matching in their derivatives. In this work, a facile metal-polyphenol network coating strategy has been proposed to facilitate the construction of magnetic MWCNTs decorated TiN 0.9 /NC absorber derived from non-magnetic MIL-125(Ti). The regulation effect of carbothermal temperature on magnetism, defect density, graphitization degree as well as electromagnetic parameters of absorbers have been systematically investigated. The obtained composites exhibit outstanding microwave absorption performance due to the magnetic-dielectric synergistic effect and improved impedance matching. The minimum reflection loss reaches −42.55 dB at 1.91 mm and the effective absorption bandwidth reaches as wide as 4.6 GHz with an ultra-thin thickness of only 1.38 mm. It is believed that this study provides a new way to construct efficient magnetic carbon-based MAMs with non-magnetic metal-based MOFs and a meaningful exploration for the preparation of ultra-thin absorbers.

Metal-organic framework MIL-125(Ti)-NH2 was prepared and coordinated with salicylaldehyde and NiCl2·6H2O to create a heterogeneous catalyst for ethylene polymerization. The structure of the products was characterized by a variety of physical methods, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The catalytic performance of MIL-125(Ti)-NH2-Sal-Ni was also investigated. The results showed that the reaction temperature, Al/Ni molar ratio, and ethylene pressure influenced on the catalytic activity and product selectivity. Under optimal reaction conditions, the catalytic activity of MIL-125(Ti)-NH2-Sal-Ni for ethylene oligomerization could reach 5.90 × 104 g·(mol Ni·h)−1 using cyclohexane as the solvent and MAO as the co-catalyst; the main products were C4 and C6. In addition, MIL-125(Ti)-NH2-Sal-Ni had good catalytic stability and recycling, which could be reused at least twice without significant loss of activity. Moreover, based on the evaluation of catalytic performance, the catalytic ethylene oligomerization mechanism of MIL-125(Ti)-NH2-Sal-Ni was also deduced.

High-toughness Al 2 O 3 –Ti(C,N) composites reinforced by cBN particles were prepared by the new oscillating pressure sintering technique. The density, phase, and microstructure evolution of the Al 2 O 3 –Ti(C,N)-cBN composites sintered at different temperatures were studied, and their effects on the mechanical properties were investigated. The results show that when the sintering temperature increases from 1300 to 1500°C, the heat preservation time shortens, whereas the density and interface bonding strength of the composites increase. In addition, cBN particles can play the role of crack bridging and be pulled out when the composites fracture, improving the toughness of the Al 2 O 3 –Ti(C,N)–cBN composites. However, when the sintering temperature further rises to 1600°C, a new phase of TiB 2 forms, and the solid solubility of C and N in Ti(C,N) increases, leading to a decrease in density and mechanical properties. As a result, when the Al 2 O 3 –Ti(C,N)–cBN composite is sintered at 1500°C, its mechanical properties reach the maximum values of 21.5 GPa, 5.7 MPa m 1/2 , and 731 MPa for hardness, fracture toughness, and flexural strength, respectively.

Plentiful heteroatom-containing zeolites as versatile redox catalysts have been successfully post-synthesized via the top-down methodology, where the starting aluminosilicate zeolites are normally expected to be highly dealuminated to maximize the amounts of silanol nests and occasionally to evade the detrimental effect of framework Al ions on the catalytic performance. Herein, our proposed dealumination-controlled strategy for the synthesis of hierarchical Ti–Y zeolite breaks through this concept. Framework-substituted Ti and tri-coordinated Al species were afforded from the interaction of Ti ions with dealumination-derived silanol nests and from the process of acid treatment, respectively. Structure–function relationships revealed that Lewis acid sites were the catalytically active centres of Ti–Y zeolite in oxidative desulfurization with hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, which came from the cooperative effect of dual active sites containing framework-substituted Ti and tri-coordinated Al species. The amounts of Lewis acid sites demonstrated a volcanic-type trend as the acid-treatment time increases. The reusability, regeneration ability, deactivation mechanism were also systematically investigated in oxidative desulfurization. Thus the Ti–Y zeolite catalyst was also effective for Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of 2-adamantanone. This work discloses the effectiveness of preparing an efficient Ti–Y zeolite catalyst with cooperative dual active sites via a dealumination-controlled strategy, which bears potential application for constructing other heteroatom-containing FAU-type zeolites with Lewis acid property.

Due to the excessive use, cephalosporin antibiotics have been detected in various aquatic environments, which may result in environmental and health concern. In this study, bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), Hf-UiO-66 and Ti-UiO-66, were successfully designed and obtained via post-synthetic method from UiO-66 for the adsorption of cefoperazone. A serious of adsorption experiments were investigated. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms demonstrated that the adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. Hf/Ti-UiO-66 exhibited much better adsorption performance than the undoped UiO-66. Particularly, Hf-UiO-66 had the highest adsorption capacity (346.0 mg g −1 ). With the introduction of Hf or Ti, the chemical coordination environment changed, which resulted in defective structures of MOFs. Such defective structures increased the adsorption active sites, changed the surface charges and enlarged pores. Based on the characterization by FT-IR, XPS, and zeta potential, it was identified that the electrostatic attraction, π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding and metal complexation were the driving force for the high adsorption capacity of the bimetallic MOFs. The as-prepared MOFs displayed good stability and reusability. This work provides a great prospect for the design and application of bimetallic defective MOFs in cephalosporins removal in environmental water.

Ti-containing Mobil composition of matter-twenty-two (Ti-MWW) zeolite was prepared via a two-step post-synthesis process and then characterized by X-ray fluorescence, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, Fourier transform infrared absorption spectra, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectra. These results indicate that the textural properties of MWW were well preserved after acid treatment and incorporation of titanium. An adsorptive-oxidative desulfurization (AODS) system was successfully developed on the basis of a model oil containing dibenzothiophene (DBT) with the as-prepared Ti-MWW being the catalyst and adsorbent and cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) being the oxidant. The parameters influencing the desulfurization performance were systematically investigated. These parameters include the Ti-MWW dosage, the reaction temperature, the stirring speed, the molar ratio of CHP to DBT and the additions of olefins and aromatics to the system. The conversion rate of DBT reached 99.6% via the catalytic oxidation process and the turnover frequency was 40.1 h −1 . Meanwhile, the oxidation products of DBT were removed by Ti-MWW adsorption. The recycling and regeneration performance of Ti-MWW were also investigated, and the DBT conversion reached 99.5% using the regenerated Ti-MWW. This work provides useful information for the construction of solvent-free oxidative desulfurization systems using a zeolite.

The trade-off between strength and ductility is a prevalent issue in strengthening commercially pure titanium (CP–Ti). This study presents a method to prepare ultra-high strength Ti–N alloys with adequate ductility using ball-milling (BM) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) techniques, based on nitrogen solid solution and grain refinement strengthening. The effect of ball milling time of mixed powders on mechanical properties of Ti–N alloys was studied systematically. Quantitative analysis reveals that solid solution strengthening and grain refinement strengthening worked synergistically to enhance yield strength of alloys. The Ti–N alloys with the most favorable mechanical properties demonstrated a yield strength of 1606 MPa and a compressive plastic strain of 14.44 %. The development of novel Ti–N alloys provides a viable strategy for the advancement of high-performance titanium alloys using ubiquitous elements.
