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.

In this paper, we fabricated a novel copper matrix composites reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using electroless deposition (ED) and spark plasma sintering technique. Microstructure, mechanical, electric conductivity, and thermal properties of the CNTs/Cu composites were investigated. The results show that a favorable interface containing C–O and O–Cu bond was formed between CNTs and matrix when the CNTs were coated with nano-Cu by ED method. Thus, we accomplished the uniformly dispersed CNTs in the CNTs/Cu powders and compacted composites, which eventually leads to the enhancement of the mechanical properties of the CNTs/Cu composites in the macro-scale environment. However, the interface structure can hinder the movement of carriers and free electrons and increase the interface thermal resistance, which leads to modest decrease of electrical and thermal conductivity of the CNTs/Cu composites.

In the face of environmental pollution and an energy shortage, how to reduce the cost of a noble metal catalyst in clean energy such as the fuel cell system and improve its electrocatalytic performance is one of the hot issues in this field. Here, a facile stepwise co-reduction route for synthesizing a series of PdFe/Cu catalysts with surface reconstruction is investigated and the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) performance is explored. The greater exposure of Pd active sites makes it excellent in EOR in alkaline media compared to the homemade and commercial Pd black catalyst. The mass activity of PdFe/Cu (794.97 mA mg −1 Pd ) is 2.52 times that of the Pd black catalyst (315.64 mA mg −1 Pd ). This kind of PdFe/Cu catalyst shows enhanced mass current density (255.66 mA mg −1 Pd ) after the 1800 s chronoamperometry test and only exhibits a decay of 1.4% after accelerated 500-cycle measurement. The enhanced EOR performance may be due to the change in the electronic structure of Pd caused by synergistic and strain effects among Pd, Fe, and Cu. This work provides an effective and kindly strategy to synthesize electrocatalysts with superior activity and durability in relation to EOR.

Photocatalytic CO 2 reduction is a promising approach for reducing CO 2 emissions and achieving the goal of carbon neutrality. In this work, selectively coupling Cu(OH) 2 and CuO with amine-modified brookite TiO 2 (NH 2 –B–TiO 2 ) has been achieved by a simple precipitation method. The results show that CuO is better than Cu(OH) 2 as a co-catalyst to enhance the CO 2 photoreduction capability of NH 2 –B–TiO 2 . The highest rates of CO 2 conversion to CH 4 and CO of NH 2 –B–TiO 2 –CuO composite reach 6.05 and 3.25 μmol h −1 g −1 , respectively, which is higher than 8 times the yield of CH 4 of NH 2 –B–TiO 2 . It is proposed that the NH 2 –B–TiO 2 –CuO composite offers an effective charge transfer through the formation of a p–n junction between NH 2 –B–TiO 2 and CuO interfaces, while in the NH 2 –B–TiO 2 –Cu(OH) 2 composite, the Cu(OH) 2 dominantly serves as an electron sink to capture photo-induced electrons, promoting photo-induced carrier separation. This work provides an ingenious synthetic method for selectively anchoring Cu(OH) 2 and CuO on semiconductors with different charge transfer routes for an efficient CO 2 photoreduction.

Herein, we have reported a facile one-pot strategy to synthesize fluorescent Cu nanclusters (Cu NCs) by using ʟ-histidine as stabilizer, and ascorbic acid as reducing agent. Cu NCs are stable, water-dispersible, and emit bright cyan emission with a quantum yield 26.08%. The Cu NCs can be employed as colorimetric and fluorimetric dual-mode detector, exhibiting excellent selectivity and sensitivity for detecting 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) specifically. Notably, Cu NCs were a sensitive sensor, which had speciality to detect DNP in range of linearity from 0.01 to 0.15 mM with a discernable limit as low as 3.96 μM. The mechanism of efficiently selective detection of DNP by Cu NCs was analyzed by UV absorption, fluorescence decay spectrum, and the performance of 'turn off' towards DNP was determined as the inner filter effect and static quenching effect. Further, the environmental tolerance of the Cu NCs probe was estimated by using the different natural water samples, demonstrating its great promise in the field of DNP monitoring and water sample analysis.

The artificial ammonia synthesis via electrochemical nitrate reduction has met increasing research interest, but it is still necessary to develop advanced catalysts with high nitrate-to-ammonia capability. Herein, we propose and demonstrate a one-step method to construct binder-free Cu foam-supported oxygen vacancy-rich Cu/CuOx in-plane heterostructured nanosheet arrays (Cu/CuOx/CF). In addition to exposing ample active sites, the two-dimensional nanosheet morphology greatly facilitates the mass/charge-transfer process during electrocatalysis. Besides, the in-plane heterojunctions and rich oxygen vacancies induced synergistic effect can modulate the electronic structure of active sites and thus tune the adsorption properties of the reactant intermediates and inhibit the formation of undesirable byproducts, which is conducive to the further improvement of nitrate reduction activity. As a result, these advantages endow the Cu/CuOx/CF with superior performance for ammonia synthesis via nitrate electroreduction, achieving high ammonia selectivity (95.00%) and Faradaic efficiency (93.58%).

The activity and hydrothermal stability of Cu/SAPO and xMn–2Cu/SAPO for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia were investigated. An ion-exchanged method was employed to synthesize xMn–2Cu/SAPO, which was characterized by N2 adsorption, ICP-AES, X-ray diffraction (XRD), NH3-temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD), NO oxidation, X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS), UV-vis, H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra (DRIFTS). 2Mn–2Cu/SAPO and 4Mn–2Cu/SAPO showed the best SCR activity, in that at 150 °C NO conversion reached 76% and N2 selectivity was above 95% for the samples. NO oxidation results showed that the 2Mn–2Cu/SAPO had the best NO oxidation activity and the BET surface area decreased as manganese loading increased. XRD results showed that the metal species was well dispersed. NH3-TPD showed that the acid sites have no significant influence on the SCR activity of xMn–2Cu/SAPO. H2-TPR patterns showed good redox capacity for xMn–2Cu/SAPO. UV-vis and H2-TPR showed that the ratio of Mn4+ to Mn3+ increased as manganese loading increased. XPS spectra showed a significant amount of Mn3+ and Mn4+ species on the surface and addition of manganese increased the ratio of Cu2+. The promotion effect of manganese to 2Cu/SAPO comes from the generation of Mn3+ and Mn4+ species. Deduced from the DRIFTS spectra, the Elay–Rideal mechanism was effective on 4Mn–2Cu/SAPO.

A core-shell Cu@Pd nanowire with enhanced activity and stability for formic acid oxidation (FAO) was prepared by decorating Pd shell on the surface of Cu nanowire. Detailed characterization (XRD, TEM and HAADF-STEM) results confirm that the prepared nanowires are of Cu@Pd core-shell structure with enlarged surface areas. The catalytic activity of Cu@Pd/C (2197.88 mA/mg at 0.257 V) toward FAO is about 4 times higher than that of the commercial Pd/C (547 mA/mg at 0.257 V). The enhanced activity of the catalyst may mainly result from the synergetic effect of Cu and Pd, which was confirmed by density-functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Poly (2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC), as a highly hydrophilic as well as biocompatible material, has been widely used in biomedical applications. In this study, the friction reduction and wear resistance of HXLPE were improved by grafting PMPC on its surface. However, the PMPC will be sheared off during friction, which is difficult to meet the long-term service requirements of artificial joints. This can be achieved by improving the lubrication environment to minimize PMPC shedding. To simulate the human lubrication environment, free PMPC (lubrication factor) and Cu 2+ (transition group metal ion catalyst) were added to neonatal bovine serum (NBCS). When the friction pair consisting of grafted PMPC-modified HXLPE and Cu/ZrO 2 ceramics is rubbed therein, the grafted PMPC interacts with the free PMPC, while Cu 2+ catalyzes the oxidative hydrolysis of serum proteins into carbon-containing small molecules and adsorbs on the surface of the Cu/ZrO 2 ceramics to form a carbon-rich lubrication layer. The composite lubrication layer consisting of grafted-free PMPC and carbon-rich lubrication layer provides good load-bearing and lubrication properties at the friction interface. And the wear rate is reduced by 45% compared to rubbing in deionized water. This technique can reduce the shedding of grafted PMPC state and improve the load-bearing performance of the interfacial lubrication layer, thus reducing the wear of HXLPE and prolonging the service life of the artificial joint.

A designed ligand-accelerated Cu(I)-catalyzed cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction was monitored for the first time by real time infrared analysis technique based on ATR-FTIR principles. Principal components analysis (PCA) and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2Dcos) results showed that the consumption of alkyne and azide took place successively followed by the formation of the product 1,2,3-triazole, and a 1:1 complex of two reactants would be formed in the reaction process. The rate-determining step of the CuAAC reaction was also experimentally confirmed for the first time to be the transition of azide−alkyne 1:1 complex to the preproduct 1,2,3-triazole. Our results are in good conformity with the current catalytic mechanism proposed by Sharpless et al. according to DFT calculation results.

The increasing power density of high-performance electronics induces significant thermal stress mismatches among conventional packaging materials, thereby intensifying the demand for tunable, low-stress materials with high thermal conductivity to ensure packaging reliability. Copper-silicon carbide (Cu-SiC) composites have emerged as promising candidates. While composite electrodeposition offers an effective route to mitigate thermal issues inherent to traditional fabrication techniques, challenges persist in achieving uniform SiC dispersion, high incorporation efficiency, and defect-free heterogeneous interfaces at elevated deposition rates. Herein, an improved patterning electrodeposition strategy with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-assisted ternary-additive electrolyte was proposed for the rapid fabrication of defect-free Cu-SiC composites. Electrochemical analyses revealed CTAB competitively adsorbed with other additives on cathodic active sites, displacing accelerators and cooperating with suppressors to inhibit Cu matrix electrodeposition, refining grains (<1 μm) and promoting dense nucleation. By systematically tuning critical parameters—current density, CTAB concentration, and SiC content—Cu-SiC coating quality was significantly improved. The optimized process yields a uniform Cu-SiC composite coating with a high SiC content (35.9 wt%), dense Cu matrix with (111) preferred orientation, high deposition rate (65.3 μm/h), defect-free heterogeneous interfaces, a low coefficient of thermal expansion (7.2 × 10 −6 /°C), and minimal warpage (0.08 %).

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a highly toxic and bioaccumulative mycotoxin found in grains, threatening food safety. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with immunochromatography enables rapid and sensitive detection of OTA. This study aimed to develop a novel core-shell-satellite SERS probe (Au@Ag@(Cu-ZIF-8)-AuNPs) for OTA detection. The structure comprised an Au@Ag nanoparticle core, coated with Cu-doped ZIF-8 and gold nanosatellites. This design generated dense electromagnetic “hot spots” through plasmonic coupling between the core and satellites. Simultaneously, Cu doping reduced the bandgap of ZIF-8, thus enhancing charge transfer efficiency for chemical signal amplification. The dual electromagnetic-chemical enhancement achieved a detection range of 0.1 fg/mL–1.0 μg/mL and an ultralow detection limit of 0.057 fg/mL, thereby surpassing the detection limits of conventional methods. This innovative probe, with its high sensitivity and wide dynamic range, offers a powerful platform for mycotoxin monitoring, hence advancing SERS-based rapid detection technologies crucial for food safety.
