Overdosing of Na(Cl, C 5 H 8 NO 4 ) can raise one's blood pressure but moderately intaking of C 6 H 8 O 6 ascorbic and C 2 H 4 O 2 acetic acids effects contrastingly with mechanisms yet to be clear. From the perspective of hydrogen bond (O:H O or HB with “:” being electron lone pairs of oxygen) cooperativity, we show phonon-spectrometrically that solvation of the Na-based doses raises their solution surface tension by ionic polarization, but solvation of the organic acids performs contrastingly by dipolar fragilization. The Na-based doses dissolve into Na + cations and anions that serve each as a charge center to cluster, stretch, and polarize the solvent O:H O bonds, raising the viscosity of the solution. However, the acidic dipoles break the solvation network into small fragments, helping to the blood flowing. Findings could offer workable mechanisms for hypertension medication and prevention.

Graphical Smart screens : An intelligent approach was developed to screen Na−Mn−W/SiO 2 catalysts for the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM). Effective composition regions other than the standard composition were successfully excavated. The wide range of the optimal composition allowed a fluctuation of composition during the reaction, which secured its excellent stability in the OCM reaction. Optimizing the performance and understanding the mechanism of metal oxide catalysts in the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is one of the most important projects in industrial catalysis. Here, we report an intelligent approach to screen Na−Mn−W/SiO 2 catalysts for the OCM reaction via ink-jet printing and multidimensional group testing. The ink-jet-printing-assisted (IJP-A) synthetic methodology ensured a fast synthesis of 1536 catalysts that were evaluated in 24 tests via a multidimensional group testing strategy (m-GT). After two-round synthesis-and-screening processes, several excellent groups with different composition space were screened out. Among the excellent catalysts, the OCM performance of Na−Mn−W/SiO 2 catalyst with higher Na, Mn and W content (G3 and G7) was less sensitive to its constituent than that of Na−Mn−W/SiO 2 catalyst with lower Na, Mn and W content (G1). These results indicated the sensitivity of performance to its Na, Mn and W content decreased in larger Na, Mn and W spaces, consistent with the complex homogeneous/heterogeneous reaction mechanism and multi-active sites. A series of Na−Mn−W/SiO 2 formulas with good performance also provide a reasonable explanation to its excellent stability for the OCM reaction. In addition, this intelligent optimization in total space offers a pathway to study the multicomponent metal oxide catalyst in the OCM reaction.

Single crystalline lead-free (K, Na)NbO3 (KNN) nanostructures have attracted much attention for the high piezoelectricity and environmental compatibility. Especially, the plate-like KNN structures are supposed to be utilized in the synthesis of textured KNN-based ceramics. The KNN plate-like templates were prepared by a two-step molten salt reaction. The layered-perovskite Bi2.5Na3.5Nb5O18 (BNN5) was first prepared by using Bi2O3, Nb2O5, Na2CO3, NaCl as raw materials. The BNN5 precursors possess high aspect ratio with an average size of 15 - 20 μm in width and 0.5 - 1 μm in thickness. Then Bi element in the BNN5 was replaced by Na/K through topochemical reaction, and KNN plate-like products which have anisotropic crystal structure were fabricated. It should be emphasized that piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) was used to confirm three-dimensional (3-D) morphology, while piezoelectric properties of single crystalline KNN platelets were acquired simultaneously. The as-synthesized KNN structures are expected to play an important role in the study of textured KNN ceramics. Meanwhile, the methodology investigated in this paper can also be applied for further fundamental studies on KNN system as well as other lead-free piezoelectric materials.

In this research, the LiY zeolite was firstly synthesized by using NaY as the parent zeolite; thereafter, the LiYAg and NaYAg zeolites created for formaldehyde gas detection were prepared with further Ag+-Li+/Na+exchange and a mild thermal treatment at 300 °C to promote the formation of luminescent Ag CLs. The spectra experimental results indicated that Ag CLs showed stronger and blue-shifted emissions in LiYAg compared with in NaYAg, and the emission intensity of Ag CLs in both zeolites monotonously decreased when exposed to increasing formaldehyde gas content. Moreover, the linear dependence of the Ag CLs’ emission intensity variation on formaldehyde content indicated a reliable method for fast and sensitive formaldehyde detection. According to the XPS, UV–vis absorption, and N2adsorption–desorption isotherm studies, the formaldehyde-gas-induced luminescence quenching of Ag CLs is due to the formation of Ag2O and Ag NPs, in which the higher content of Ag+/Ag0redox couples in LiYAg and larger surface area of NaYAg benefit the precise detection of formaldehyde gas in low- and high-content ranges, respectively. Furthermore, the blue-shifted peak position and widened FWHM of Ag CLs can also be used for the indication of formaldehyde gas and the detection limit of NaYAg and LiYAg, which both meet with the standards of the WHO and OSHA.Keywords:FAUY zeolite;silver clusters;luminescence property;formaldehyde detection;auger parameter

Advanced clay sorbents have attracted widespread attentions for applications in environment remediation and pollution control. Here, a facile and environmentally-friendly approach to synthesizing a porous Na-bentonite/hickory-biochar composite sorbent from hickory waste biomass using hand-milling and carbon-bed pyrolysis was investigated. The sorbents, made using a range of clay/biomass ratios and at a range of temperatures, were characterized and examined for their ability to remove Eriochrome blue black R (EBBR) anionic organic dyes from aqueous solution. The composite sorbents showed increased microporosity and O-containing functional groups over the pyrolyzed bentonite control. The composite prepared with 10% biomass by weight, and at 600 °C had the greatest EBBR adsorption, and was best fit to Freundlich isotherm and intraparticle diffusion kinetics models. The modeled maximum EBBR sorption capacity of this composite (2020.5 mg g −1 , R2 adj = 0.92), which was attributed to the dispersion of bentonite particles over the biochar surface. These results show the bentonite/biochar composite to have great potential for use in environmental remediation applications.

As the high energy-density energy storage and greenhouse gas capture device, Na-CO 2 battery development is impeded by the sluggish CO 2 reduction and difficult decomposition of insulating discharge products on the cathode. Here, the cobalt (Co)-decorated carbon nanofibers accompanying with slight Co oxidation were used as the self-standing cathode for Na-CO 2 battery. It greatly reduces the discharge overpotential by 500 mV and charge overpotential by 210 mV, delivers a 12 times higher discharge capacity and runs nearly 4 times cycle life than its counterpart. Experiment combined with theory calculation demonstrates that the evenly dispersive, abundant and stable active sites (Co-CoO) with an equal CO 2 adsorption-desorption capability is the key to improving cell performance. This work reveals the importance of catalysts/cathodes and provides a direction to design highly efficient catalysts/cathodes for alkali metal-CO 2 batteries.

In this study, natural clinoptilolite was treated with NaOH solutions of different concentrations under mild ambient conditions. The composition and structure of the as-prepared samples were characterized, and their performance was assessed in terms of the removal of the heavy metal ions Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , and Cr 3+ from the aqueous solution. The results showed that the composition, structure, and capability of removal of heavy metal ions of the samples were significantly influenced by the NaOH concentrations. The crystal structure of clinoptilolite remained invariant under a relatively low NaOH concentration (≤0.5 M), began transforming into zeolite Na–P under a medium NaOH concentration (∼1.0 M), and then completely transformed into it under a high NaOH concentration (2.0–4.0 M). The samples treated with NaOH had lower SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratios, and were superior to unmodified natural zeolite in removing the heavy metal ions. This method of treatment with relatively high concentrations of NaOH is a simple and effective way to transform natural clinoptilolite into the zeolite Na-P rich ion exchanger, which is suitable for removing heavy metal ions.

P2-layered metal oxide cathodes exhibit great promise for use in sodium ion batteries due to their unique two-dimensional tunnel structure, high energy density and high redox potential, etc. However, the inferior structural stability and irreversible phase change of P2-layered cathodes inhibit their development. The best effective strategies to improve their structural stability and sodium storage properties are via the optimization of the P2-layered tunnel structure and morphology by adjusting the Na+ contents, lithium substitution and rational element doping. Herein, the first sub-group element (Cu2+, Ag+ and Au+) doped Na0.5Li0.07Mn0.61Co0.16Ni0.16O2 cathodes were successfully prepared and systematically studied using operando X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Rietveld refinement with corresponding Fourier electron cloud maps and the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT). These data indicate that the lattice parameters (a/b, c and V), energy barrier, and Na+ diffraction coefficient of sub-group element-doped Na0.5Li0.07Mn0.61Co0.16Ni0.16O2 cathodes are gradually improved in line with an increase in the sub-group element radii, which facilitate the kinetics of Na+ migration due to the synergistic effect between the valence and radius. Additionally, the structural stability and sodium storage mechanism of the optimized hybrid Na0.5Li0.07Mn0.6Co0.16Ni0.16Au0.01O2 electrode was revealed via operando XRD.

The rapid footstep of hydrogen society drives people to pursue the reliable, energy-saving, and renewable hydrogen production patterns. Herein, an electricity-hydrogen co-produced Na-ion direct formate fuel cell (e-h 2 Na-DFFC) is proposed as a conceptual avenue to link the CO 2 utilization and H 2 society. Using the solar fuel-formate that can be readily synthetized from carbon dioxide, we experimentally demonstrate the capability of e-h 2 Na-DFFC for continuous co-production of electricity and hydrogen. A proof-of-concept e-h 2 Na-DFFC yields a peak power density as high as 168 mW cm −2 at 380 mA cm −2 associating with the hydrogen production rate reaching 2.9 mL min −1 cm −2 . More importantly, the approximate 100% purity and over 98.9% Faradic efficiency suggest the great potential of this electricity-hydrogen co-production device. In addition, we explore the scalability, stability and applicability of the e-h 2 Na-DFFC. The hydrogen that is produced from the e-h 2 Na-DFFC can be directly fed to hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, which presents a peak power density of 546 mW cm −2 and a 35-h stable operation at room temperature . This proposed e-h 2 Na-DFFC provides a new pathway for renewable hydrogen production.

Li2FeSiO4 is a superior cathode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its high capacity, low cost, and superior stability. Exhilaratingly, the material also exhibits the desired electrochemical performance as the anode for LIBs in comparison with traditional carbon materials. However, the Li2FeSiO4 anode is subject to a fatal capacity degradation in long cycles, due to its low conductivity and serious particle agglomeration. With inspiration from the unique architecture based on the hybrid nanotubes consisting of active nanoparticles embedded in CNTs, a simple and efficient sol–gel method combined with subsequent calcination has been developed for the synthesis of porous Li2FeSiO4/C hybrid nanotubes. Benefiting from the intrinsic increased conductivity of the hybrid and its robust structure, as the anode for LIBs, it exhibits a high capacity (444.7 mA h g−1 at 0.2 A g−1), superior long cycling stability (161 mA h g−1 at 2 A g−1 after 3000 cycles) and an ultra-high rate capability (261.1 mA h g−1 at 1 A g−1 and 112.9 mA h g−1 at 8 A g−1). Surprisingly, the Na2FeSiO4/C hybrid nanotube also shows satisfactory application prospects as the anode for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Such hybrids furnish attractive potential for high-performance LIB/SIB anodes, which would be a promising substitution for carbon anodes.

The hierarchical nickel chloride/reduced graphene oxide (NiCl 2 -rGO) aerogels are synthesized via a facile hydrothermal and freeze-drying methods using low-cost nickel chloride hexahydrate (NiCl 2 ·6H 2 O) as raw material. The NiCl 2 -rGO hybrid aerogel structure enables the uniform distribution of lamellar NiCl 2 on the three-dimensional (3D) cross-linked conductive graphene sheets. When employed as cathode for sodium-nickel chloride (Na-NiCl 2 ) batteries, the as-obtained NiCl 2 -rGO aerogels exhibit excellent electrochemical performance with high reversible capacities (116 mAh g −1 after 50 cycles, 128 mAh g −1 in a fixed capacity window (20%–80% state of charge (SOC)) after 50 cycles), and a ultra-low polarization (0.05 V in the fixed capacity window). The outstanding performance of NiCl 2 -rGO aerogels can be attributed to the excellent conductivity of graphene. Moreover, the strong contact between NiCl 2 and graphene sheets can effectively promote the transfer of electrons. Compared with traditional tubular Na-NiCl 2 batteries, the molar ratio of Ni/NaCl of NiCl 2 -rGO aerogels can be decreased from 1.8 to the stoichiometric ratio (0.5). To the best of our knowledge, this work paves a perspective way for the first time to develop charged-state NiCl 2 -based cathodes with splendid performance for Na-NiCl 2 batteries.

The sodium-nickel chloride (Na-NiCl 2 ) batteries technology has been considered as one of the most promising candidates for large-scale electrical energy storage application owing to its abundant electrode material resource, high energy density and safety. However, ultra-excessive Ni in the cathode leads to high material cost and the growth of cathode particles during cycles makes degradation of batteries performances, which hinder the further application of Na-NiCl 2 batteries. To address these challenges, we designed a free-standing Ni-less cathode with Ni/NaCl particles uniformly distributed in the three-dimensional (3D) conductive matrix constructed by carbonfiber (CF) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The 3D hierarchical structure synthesized by low-cost vacuum filtration method can offer sufficient void space to accommodate the growth of NaCl particles and effectively enhance the electronic conductivity of the cathode. When the molar ratio of Ni/NaCl in the cathode is reduced to 1.0, a specific capacity of 90 mAh g −1 for planar Na-NiCl 2 batteries can be achieved after 170 cycles at 190 °C with a capacity retention of 67%, which is higher than that of traditional tubular Na-NiCl 2 batteries.
