Red phosphors often play a crucial role in enhancing the lighting quality of WLEDs. However, it remains difficult to develop a red phosphor that shows high efficiency, outstanding thermal stability, and high color purity. The struggle against “thermal stability” is always an inevitable task for photoluminescent materials. In this work, we propose a method inspired by nonlinear optical materials to synthesize a novel red-emitting pyrophosphate phosphor Cs2MgZn2(P2O7)2:Eu3+. The phase purity and morphology features are clearly investigated using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The emission spectra show that Cs2MgZn2(P2O7)2:20%Eu3+ can emit bright red light with a high color purity (84.68%) under ultraviolet light excitation. Rietveld refinement of the XRD pattern and luminescence kinetics as a function of the Eu3+ doping concentration were used to obtain information about the crystal structure and determine the Eu3+ site occupation preference. In particular, the sample exhibited excellent thermal stability (100%@170 °C) due to zero thermal quenching behavior, and the mechanism is described in detail. The present work provides a new possibility for the research and application of zero-thermal quenching phosphors. In addition, the fabricated WLED device was characterized via its satisfactory CIE coordinates (0.3508, 0.3233), outstanding correlated color temperature (CCT = 4608 K) and strong emission intensity, which demonstrates its potential for application in the field of WLED solid-state lighting.

Phase change materials (PCMs), which exhibit significant capacity of latent heat absorption and release during the phase change process , have been promisingly used for solar energy conversion and storage. However, the application of organic PCMs for solar energy storage remains a great challenge owing to their low thermal conductivity and liquid leakage problem. In this work, a form-stable PCM with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and epoxy resin (EP) was prepared by melt blending (the mass ratio is 1:1). The experimental results indicated that the leakage problem of PEG was solved by the cross-linking of the molecular chains of PEG and EP. Meanwhile, in order to improve the solar energy conversion capability and thermal conductivity , an extremely low loading (4 wt%) of expanded graphite (EG) modified with Ag nanoparticle was added into the PEG/EP matrix. The results suggested that Ag nanoparticles were uniformly dispersed by electroless silver plating in the surface of EG, and the electroless modified EG was evenly distributed in the PEG/EP matrix. Moreover, the composite fillers exhibited prominent solar energy conversion capability (90.7 %) and higher thermal conductivity (121 %). Therefore, this novel composite has favorable potential in practical applications of solar energy storage.

Extra-large-pore aluminophosphate –CLO (i.e., DNL-1) nanocrystals were synthesized in a eutectic mixture composed of diethylamine hydrochloride (DEAC) and ethylene glycol (EG) with 1-methylimidazole (1-MIm) as an additional amine using both conventional and microwave heating . The effects of the synthesis parameters, such as the amount of 1-MIm and the P/Al ratio, on the formation of DNL-1 nanocrystals were studied. The products were characterized using a variety of techniques. XRD , DLS , SEM and TEM results indicate that the as-synthesized DNL-1 nanocrystals have good crystallinity and narrow particle size distributions , and their average particle size was controlled in the 100–220 nm range by simply adjusting the amount of 1-MIm. TG–DSC and N 2 adsorption analyses reveal that the as-synthesized DNL-1 nanocrystals exhibit good thermal stability and the calcined samples possess high BET surface areas and large pore volumes . In addition, the cooperative structure-directing effects of 1-MIm and the eutectic mixture cation (DEA + ) in the formation of DNL-1 nanocrystals were discussed.

Bismuth telluride-based materials has been applied in thermoelectric cooling wildly, but the properties still can be further enhanced by doping, microstructure controlling and compositing strategies. Herein, we demonstrate an anomalous doping strategy in (Bi, Sb) 2 Te 3 (BST) materials, where the strong n type dopant of PbBr 2 acts as p-type dopant, introducing holes in BST materials. The anomalous doping is attributed to the dissolution of Pb and Br elements into the matrix in a non-stoichiometric ratio, with Pb predominantly occupying Sb vacancies and Br enriching the in-situ generated Sb 2 O 3 , resulting in the increased hole concentration and improved electrical conductivity. The maximum power factor (PF) ultimately increases to 3972 μW m −1 K −2 for the 0.3 mol% PbBr 2 doped BST sample. Moreover, the enhanced multi-scale wavelength phonon scattering centers cause the lattice thermal conductivity fall to 0.52 W m −1 K −1 . Finally, the peak ZT is effectively enhanced to 1.3 at 323 K, which is 22 % higher than that of pristine sample. Furthermore, a direct conversion efficiency of 4.6 % is achieved in a single 0.3 mol% PbBr 2 -doped BST leg at a temperature gradient of ΔT = 200 K. Thus, this study underscores the anomalous PbBr 2 doping in Bi 0.42 Sb 1.58 Te 3 , promoting the wider application of BST-based materials.

SiGe-based thermoelectric (TE) materials have gained increasing interests due to their low maintenance costs, environmental friendliness and long lifespan. However, the intrinsically high thermal conductivity of Si-based materials also results in poor TE properties. In this investigation, a zirconia (ZrO 2 ) composite strategy was applied to an n-type SiGe alloy, tremendously elevating its TE performance. After mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering (SPS) processes, the ZrO 2 induced the formation of nanopores in the SiGe matrix via phosphorus adsorption. Moreover, such increase in porosity enhanced the phonon scattering and dramatically suppressed lattice thermal conductivity, from 2.83 to 1.59 W·m −1 ·K −1 at 873 K. Additionally, reduced phosphorus doping led to an increase in Seebeck coefficients and a relatively minor decrease in electrical conductivity. The power factor didn’t deteriorate significantly, either, as its maximum of ~ 3.43 mW·m −1 ·K −2 was achieved at 873 K with (Si 0.8 Ge 0.2 ) 0.097 P 0.03 (ZrO 2 ) 0.003 . In short, a peak figure of merit ( ZT ) of ~ 1.27 at 873 K and an average ZT ~ 0.7 from 323 to 873 K were obtained. This study demonstrates that the electrical and thermal transportation of SiGe material can be synergistically tuned by compositing ZrO 2 , illustrating a novel strategy to optimize the TE properties of bulk materials.

CuSeO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) compounds were prepared by combustion synthesis combined with spark plasma sintering method.

CuSeO compounds have been measured in the temperature range of 323–823 K. The electrical conductivity is greatly enhanced by almost three times from 8.70 to 26.2 S/cm at 323 K by the substitution of Bi with K due to the large decrease of the activation energy. The overall thermal conductivity decreases significantly due to the strong point defect scattering by K doping and possibly enhanced interface scattering on the secondary phase. The maximum ZT reaches 0.6 at 823 K for the sample of x = 0.02, which is about 50% higher than that of the pristine sample. Our work offers a fast and more efficient approach for the fabrication of BiCuSeO-based materials.

Protein-based nanocarriers with inherent biocompatibility have been widely served as building blocks to construct versatile therapeutic nanoplatforms. Herein, bovine serum albumin-iridium oxide nanoparticles (denoted BSA-IrO2 NPs) are successfully synthesized via one-step biomineralization approach. The BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibits uniform size (40 nm), superb biocompatibility and high drug loading capacity for doxorubicin (27.4 wt%). Under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, the as-prepared BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibited high photothermal conversion ability (54.3%) and good photostability. The in vitro drug release experiments displayed pH and NIR laser -triggered DOX release profiles, which could enhance the therapeutic anticancer effect. By utilizing this DOX loaded nanoplatform, effective synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy against human osteosarcoma can be realized, which has been systematically verified both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, in vivo pharmacokinetics studies showed that BSA-IrO2@DOX had prolonged blood circulation time due to the BSA component can improve the stealthiness of the nanoparticles during the blood circulation. Meanwhile, in vitro and in vivo toxicity studies demonstrated that the BSA-IrO2 NPs can act as biocompatible agents for drug delivery and cancer therapy. Therefore, this work presents a biomineralized iridium-based NPs with remarkable features and be used as a very potential therapeutic nanoplatform for cancer treatment.

The structure and physicochemical properties of starch isolated from the cotyledon and hull of faba beans and from wheat (as reference) were examined using 16 different methods. The amylose content in faba bean cotyledon and hull starch was 32% and 36%, respectively, and that in wheat starch was 21%. The faba bean cotyledon and hull starch were structurally alike both displaying C-polymorphic pattern, a similar degree of branching and similar branch chain length distributions. Wheat starch had a significantly greater prevalence of short amylopectin chains (DP < 12) and a higher degree of branching. Granules in both faba bean starches exhibited surface cracks and were more homogenous in size than the smoother wheat starch granules. Gelatinisation temperature was higher for the faba bean starches, likely as an effect of high amylose content and longer starch chains delaying granular swelling. Cotyledon starch produced pastes with the highest viscosities in all rheological measurements, probably owing to larger granules. Higher prevalence of lipids and resistant starch reduced the viscosity values for hull starch. For all starches, viscosity increased at faster heating rates. During the rheological analyses, the samples were exposed to different instruments, heating rates and temperatures ranges, differing from standard rheological procedures, which could help predict how different processing techniques effect the final starch textures.

In this study, we report an efficient and rapid technique to achieve the covalent functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by hyperbranched poly(thiol ether-ester) (HPTEE) via thiol-yne click chemistry method. The structures of the MWCNTs grafted with HPTEE (MWCNTs-HPTEE) were characterized and their effects on the epoxy-based composites were investigated. It was found that the hyperbranched polymers have been successfully grafted onto the MWCNTs surface thorough covalent bonds, which can greatly improve the dispersion of MWCNTs in epoxy matrix and the interfacial interaction between them, contributing to the largely enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. When 0.6 wt% MWCNTs-HPTEE was added, the composites exhibited the best mechanical properties. An impressive 180% increase in the impact strength and 72.3% increase in flexural strength were observed with respect to the neat epoxy resin. Moreover, at the same filler content, the thermal stability and thermal conductivity of MWCNTs-HPTEE/epoxy composites outperformed the composites containing the raw MWCNTs. Experimental results demonstrated that the resulted MWCNTs-HPTEE are more effective on the improvement of properties of epoxy-based composites as compared with raw MWCNTs.

Flame propagation characteristics of wood dust deflagration and suppression mechanism of ultrafine powders are investigated systematically. The deflagration reaction intensity of wood dust increases firstly and then decreases with the increase in dust cloud concentration. This is due to factors such as oxygen supply, positive feedback among flame characteristic parameters. Thus, there is an equivalent dust concentration for greatest deflagration intensity. Nano-sized ultrafine zirconium hydroxide (Zr(OH) 4 ) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) powder are introduced to suppress wood dust deflagration at the equivalent concentration. It is found that Zr(OH) 4 has a suppression effect of endothermic decomposition to generate zirconia (ZrO 2 ), dilution of oxygen and absorption of free radicals; while SiO 2 exerts suppression effect due to its high melting point and heat absorption. The suppression performance of Zr(OH) 4 is better than that of SiO 2 . This is because that Zr(OH) 4 and ZrO 2 have a catalytic carbonization effect. It can not only improve thermal stability of wood particles by catalyzing production of high-temperature resistant residuals, but also promote the formation of catalytic sites to reduce crystallite size of carbon layer on wood particles surface, weakening heat and mass transfer between particles.

O 5+ δ
( x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) ceramics was studied from room temperature to 525 K. The results show that presence of Fe will increase both electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficients of the samples. Due to the lattice misfit and carrier concentration reduction caused by Fe, the thermal conductivity of the sample decreases. The activation energy of conductivity is larger than that of thermopower calculated in the semiconductive region, which means that the conduction mechanism may be determined as a small polaron hopping model. The optimum Fe doping amount is x = 0.6, which results in a ZT value 0.02 at 373 K.

The stability of aluminum (Al) nanoparticles is a key issue that determines the energy performance of solid fuels, Al-based green propellants, and fuel cells. The surface native oxide shell (Al2O3), nevertheless, cannot stabilize Al nanoparticles under hot water conditions. Herein, we report a passivation method utilizing an ultrathin zirconia (ZrO2) coating via atomic layer deposition, where a sub-nanometer coating layer could completely prevent the reactions between Al nanoparticles and hot water (80 °C). The weight percentage of metallic Al for ultrathin ZrO2 coated Al nanoparticles can reach 82.2 wt %, which is close to that of original Al nanoparticles with Al2O3 native oxide (88 wt %). The metallic Al’s weight has been kept at 93.4% for the ultrathin ZrO2 coated Al nanoparticles compared to the original Al nanoparticles. As a comparison, the Al2O3 coated Al nanoparticles result in the oxidation failure in 60 °C water. The proposed passivation mechanism is attributed to ZrO2 coating’s structural stability and the enhanced hydrophobicity to water. The ultrathin ZrO2 passivation offers a valuable tool for enhancing the stability of Al nanoparticles and thereby enables their potential applications in energy field.
