Highly efficient and flexible power sources have always been the focus and goal in the field of wearable electronics. However, the existing wearable power sources are limited by their large size, high weight, electrolyte leakage, and poor mechanical compliance, which seriously hinders their practical applications. Herein, we propose a novel strategy to achieve and demonstrate a fabric-based high-performance wearable triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) structure. The metals of gallium (Ga), bismuth (Bi), indium (In), and tin (Sn) are mixed according to specific mass ratios, and then they are transformed in liquid phase to form room-temperature multiphase soft metals of GaBiInSn. The material exhibits both metallic and fluidic properties, and possesses a characteristic of multiphase structure. The GaBiInSn material is directly deposited between polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) layers and nonwoven fabrics to establish multi-level conductive and frictional interfaces, creating charge transfer and solid-liquid hybrid dielectric layers. Therefore, the thin film-type triboelectric nanogenerators with a structure of PTFE/GaBiInSn/nonwoven fabric (LM-P-TENGs) is manufactured. The LM-P-TENGs can be integrated onto fabrics without compromising their breathability, comfortableness, and flexibility. Particularly, LM-P-TENGs efficiently convert the mechanical energy of human limb movements into sustainable electrical energy output. Under the human limb mechanical triggering conditions, LM-P-TENG achieves a champion specific open-circuit voltage up to 900 V, peak short-circuit current density of 43.3 mA/m 2 , and high power density of 12.56 W/m 2 . This work demonstrates the application potential of room-temperature multiphase soft materials in flexible wearable power sources, while introducing a novel power supply mode for wearable electronics. Additionally, the LM-P-TENGs also present applications in self-powered wearables, medical biosensing systems, human-machine interaction systems, near-eye display systems, etc. for the flexible electronics.

A facile strategy was designed to prepare magnetically layered chalcogenide Fe3O4/KMS-1 (FK) composite adsorbents combining the advantages of rapid magnetic separation and satisfactory adsorption performance under vigorous stirring in ethanol solution at room temperature. The dispersion degree of Fe3O4 in ethanol was superior to that in water, which gave a better result with the preparation in ethanol. Characterization by SEM-EDS, XRD, magnetic test, N2 physical-adsorption and TG-DTG demonstrated formation of FK and its adsorption performance. The results showed that the Fe3O4 microspheres could be well distributed over the surface of KMS-1 by electrostatic attraction in ethanol and the obtained FK could be easily separated from water after adsorption using a magnet. The pH slightly affected the adsorption capacity in the range of 3 to 6. Both KMS-1 and Fe3O4 retained their own original adsorption capacity in FK and FK0.3 was the best composite adsorbent when the mass ratio of Fe3O4 and KMS-1 was 0.3. As the amount of loaded Fe3O4 was decreased, the adsorption capacity of the composite adsorbents increased. The kinetic data of FK0.3 fit well with pseudo-second-order models. The co-existing ions had a slight effect on the removal of Zn(II) by FK0.3. The interlayer spacing of KMS-1 in FK increased from 0.851 nm to 1.123 nm after adsorption. The FK composite adsorbents can be considered as an excellent recoverable adsorbent in the treatment of wastewater.

Here, we developed a new strategy for preparation of series of in-situ reduction bimetallic catalysts Ni-W/SiO 2 by introducing of reducing agent in the preparation process. And these catalysts were applied into the catalytic hydrogenolysis of microcrystalline cellulose and pretreated lignocellulose. The results show that the in situ reduction 15%Ni–20%W/SiO 2 shows the prominent activity for microcrystalline cellulose conversion into ethylene glycol (EG), 1,2-propylene glycol, and glycerol with the highest yield of EG at 61.30% under the experimental condition. And the relative high of EG yield (30.23%) was obtained when a combinative pretreatment technology of steam explosion (0.45 MPa) coupled with hot alkali (70 °C) was introduced to enhance the hydrogenolysis of plant lignocellulose-based feedstocks over the in situ reduction catalyst 15%Ni–20%W/SiO 2 . The SEM and thermogravimetry analysis revealed that segmental lignin and hemicellulose were removed partly by hot alkali pretreatment. Meanwhile, the existence of Ni–W alloys and metal Ni particles were evidenced by X-ray diffraction spectra. In addition, by the detailed analysis via transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the catalytic particle size was distributed in the range of 9.3 ± 1.3 nm.

With excellent high-temperature stability (up to 1000 K) and favorable electrical properties for thermoelectric application, TiNiSn-based half-Heusler (HH) alloys are expected to be promising thermoelectric materials for the recovery of waste heat in the temperature ranging from 700 K to 900 K. However, their thermal conductivity is always relatively high (5–10 W/mK), making it difficult to further enhance their thermoelectric figure-of-merit ( ZT ). In the past decade, introducing nano-scale secondary phases into the HH alloy matrix has been proven to be feasible for optimizing the thermoelectric performance of TiNiSn. In this study, a series of TiNiSn-based alloys have been successfully synthesized by a simple solid-state reaction. The content and composition of the heterogeneous phase (TiNi 2 Sn and Sn) is accurately regulated and, as a result, the thermal conductivity successfully reduced from 4.9 W m −1 K −1 to 3.0 Wm −1 K −1 (750 K) due to multi-scale phonon scattering. Consequently, a ZT value of 0.49 is achieved at 750 K in our TiNiSn-based thermoelectric materials. Furthermore, the thermal stability of TiNiSn alloys is enhanced through reducing the Sn substance phase.

The development of both effective and robust catalysts is crucial for the commercialization of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells since the reactivity and durability of the catalysts determine its ultimate lifetime and activity. Herein, we developed a facile approach for the synthesis of porous and hierarchical mono- or bi-metallic titanium nitride nanotubes (NTs), and this robust non-carbon material was used as the Pt support. The optimized catalyst (Pt/Ti0.9Ni0.1N NTs) demonstrated a mass activity of 0.78 A mgPt−1 and a specific activity of 1.3 mA cm−2 at 0.9 V (vs. RHE), which is roughly 3.6 times that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst. In particular, the catalyst exhibited excellent stability, such that the mass activity remained 3.2 times greater than that of pristine commercial Pt/C even after 15 000 continuous cycles at up to 1.2 V; in addition, the structure of the catalyst was perfectly maintained. The experimental data demonstrates that the hollow and porous structures, the strong metal-support interaction, and the synergistic effects derived from the nickel doping contribute to the improved performance and durability of the catalyst. This study paves the way for the rational synthesis of robust non-carbon catalysts that can be applied in a wide range of energy conversion processes.

In this work, the co-doping in both the anion and cation sites of SnTe has been implemented by addition of BiCl 3 and the effect of co-doping on thermoelectric performance of SnTe-based materials has been studied detailedly. Benefitting from the sharp reduction of carrier concentration and the increase of density of states due to the electron donor contribution of Bi and Cl, the electrical transport properties have been improved greatly; moreover, the hierarchical architectures such as the point defects , dislocations, nano-particles and phase/grain boundaries act as multiscale phonon scattering centers and effectively suppress the transport of phonons in wide frequency range, thus reduced the thermal conductivity dramatically. Due to the synergistic regulation of cation-anion co-doping, a maximum ZT of ~1.27 at 873 K has been obtained in the sample of SnTe doping with 4% BiCl 3 , which enhances by 182% in comparison with the pristine sample.

The thin-film photovoltaic material Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) has drawn worldwide attention in recent years due to its earth-abundant, nontoxic element constitution, and remarkable photovoltaic performance. Although state-of-the-art power conversion efficiency is achieved by hydrazine-based methods, effort to fabricate such devices in a high throughput, environmental-friendly way is still highlydesired. Here a hydrazine-free all-solution-processed CZTS solar cell with Na 2 S self-depleted back contact modification layer for the first time is demonstrated, using a ball-milled CZTS as light absorber, low-temperature solution-processed ZnO electron-transport layer as well as silver-nanowire transparent electrode. The inserting of Na 2 S self-depleted layer is proven to effectively stabilize the CZTS/Mo interface by eliminating a detrimental phase segregation reaction between CZTS and Mo-coated soda lime glass, thus leading to a better crystallinity of CZTS light absorbing layer, enhanced carrier transportation at CZTS/Mo interface as well as a smaller series resistance. Furthermore, the self-depletion feature of the Na 2 S modification layer also averts hole-transportation barrier within the devices. The results show the vital importance of interfacial engineering for these CZST devices and the Na 2 S interface layer can be extended to other optoelectronic devices using Mo contact.

To solve the bottleneck of low degradation rate and low biogas yield in anaerobic digestion of food waste, the addition of anionic surfactant sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate (SN) and nonionic surfactant primary alcohol ethoxylate (AEO) were proposed. The results showed that both surfactants could promote the methane production and facilitate the degradation of food waste. The highest methane yield per mass of volatile solid was obtained in 0.1 g/L AEO (497.14 mL) and 1 g/L SN (445.51 mL), which was improved by 92% and 72% compared with the control group. While with the increase of surfactant concentration, methane yield was decreased due to negative effect caused by the surfactant. This corresponded with the variation of pH, total volatile fatty acids (TVFAs), and soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD). The microbial community analysis showed that the relative abundance of methanobacterium increased while the relative abundance of methanosaeta decreased after the addition of surfactant. Meanwhile, the methane production pathway was shifted from codominance of hydrogenotrophic and aceticlastic methanogens to predominance by hydrogenotrophic methanogens in the groups with low concentration of AEO and SN.

Black phosphorus nanosheets (BPns) have gained widespread attention in the field of flame retardancy due to their highly efficient flame-retardant properties achieved with a low addition rate (e.g., 0.4%). However, the pyrolysis pathways of BP in polymers have not yet been elucidated. This work systematically studies the flame retardancy and pyrolysis behavior of BP in oxygen-containing (polyurethane, PU) and oxygen-free (polypropylene, PP) polymers, distinguishing between the gas-phase and the condensed-phase flame retardant effect of BP. Through slow heating and staged heating methods, the condensed phase and gas phase pyrolysis products of BP in PU and PP at different temperatures are compared in detail. The distinct flame retardant pathways of BP in PU and PP are revealed. The results indicate that the oxidation of BP commences with its reaction with atmospheric oxygen, implying that the condensed-phase flame-retardant effect of BP primarily occurs at the polymer surface. In PP, BP mainly functions as a gas-phase flame retardant. In the condensed phase, BP generates phosphate derivatives that cover the substrate surface, providing solely a physical barrier effect. In PU, while BP demonstrates an outstanding gas-phase flame-retardant effect, it also accelerates the early dehydration carbonization of alcohols within the substrate, resulting in the formation of phosphate ester compounds (P–O–C structure) to bolster the thermal stability of residual carbon. Additionally, the side reactions of BP during catalytic carbonization will decrease the thermal stability of ester bonds in PU. This work lays a theoretical foundation for the development and application of BP-based flame retardant systems.

Tin–lead mixed perovskite-based tandem solar cells show promise. However, the inherent oxidation of tin remains a challenge for achieving high power conversion efficiency and device stability. In this study, we present an approach to address this challenge by developing an electron-withdrawing chloromethyl phosphonic acid ligand based on the substituent effect, designed to mitigate tin oxidation in tin–lead mixed perovskite materials. The introduction of this electron-withdrawing ligand improves the redox potential of the tin adduct. Furthermore, it leads to a substantial increase in the ionization potential of the perovskite structure. Through comparative analysis with conventional coordinating molecules, we reveal that the electron-withdrawing ligand is more effective in suppressing tin oxidation and reducing the defect density within the tin-based perovskite film. Using our approach, we demonstrate certified efficiency of 26.96% for all-perovskite tandem solar cells.

In the context of low-carbon and energy conservation initiatives, smart thermal management textiles for the human body, which operate without energy consumption and pollution, are gaining increased attention. However, conformal to human skin, ensuring the fire safety of these textiles remains a critical challenge for their practical application. Meanwhile, complicated and changed environments demand a high self-adaptation for designed textiles. This study introduces a dual-mode textile designed for freely switching radiative cooling (RC) and solar heating (SH). The textile is created by applying a high-white flame retardant and black phosphorus to both sides using a convenient scrape coating method. The combination of the cooling layer (90.0% solar reflectance and 95.9% infrared emissivity) and the heating layer (80% solar absorptivity) provides a comfortable thermal environment for the human body. Furthermore, the Janus coating, consisting of advanced flame retardants, synergistically enhances the textile's fire safety, confirmed by a limiting oxygen index of 28.0%, a reduction of 40.1% in peak value of heat release, and self-extinguishing properties. This research presents a simple and available approach to creating dual-mode smart textiles for maintaining a comfortable micro-environment towards changed seasons and weather, significantly contributing to the development of fire-safe personal thermal management technology.

The specific aims of this study were to evaluate the inhibition effect on CYP3A of di-n-butyl-di-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato)tin (IV) (DBDCT), a tin-based complex with high antitumor activity, and the probable mechanism(s) of this action. Adult male SD rats were treated separately with natural saline (NS), lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 5 mg/kg), DBDCT (1.25, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg) intraperitoneally for 2 days after induction of CYP3A with dexamethasone (DEX, 100 mg/kg) for 4 days. Western blot analysis and fluorescent quantitation PCR (FQ-PCR) were conducted to determine the changes in expression of CYP3A, PXR, CAR and RXR. The biological accumulation of DBDCT and total Sn were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS). CYP450 content and CYP3A activities were significantly inhibited (p< 0.05) in DBDCT-treated rats compared with the control group, as was the expression of CYP3A (p< 0.05) at both protein and mRNA levels. In DBDCT-treated groups, the expression of PXR protein and mRNA increased, while the expression of CAR decreased. The biological accumulation of DBDCT and Sn in rat livers treated with DBDCT was high. The accumulation of DBDCT and Sn due to the inhibition of CYP3A may be involved in the mechanism of toxicity of DBDCT in rat liver.Keywords:cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A);di-n-butyl-di-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato)tin (IV) (DBDCT);inhibition;rat
