It is still challenged to propose a straightforward and in-situ growth method of fabricating perovskite-type metal oxide films with dense and uniform surface coverage. This paper presents a simple strategy to prepare LaBO 3 (where B = Ni, Co, Fe, Mn) films by metal oleate (MO) route, in which metal oleates (La(OA) 3 and (B(OA) x , x = 2 or 3) serve as effective ligands to inhibit the self-aggregation among crystal grains. The as-prepared LaNiO 3 film with uniform and dense surface shows a reduced contact angle (31.5° vs 51.2°) and surface roughness (Ra = 14.2 vs 23.9 nm) compared with film prepared by Sol-gel (SG) method. Finally, the LaNiO 3 film by MO route is successfully employed as hole transport layer (HTL) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) to obtain a power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 15.62 %, which is 1.54 times that of PSCs by SG method. This work opens an avenue for fabricating LaBO 3 films with dense and uniform surface coverage by MO route.

Ethane dehydrogenation to aromatics (EDA) is one of the most promising routes to produce aromatics. Herein, the tandem of dehydrogenation component and acidic zeolite are prepared and investigated for EDA. Pt/Fe-S-1 coupled with ZSM-5 of Si/Al of 14 via mixing homogeneously shows excellent EDA performance with 54.0% ethane conversion, 61.5% aromatics selectivity as well as a deactivation rate constant of 0.00010 h −1 . According to catalysts characterizations and controlled experiments, it is confirmed the highly dispersed positive Pt δ + species around Fe species over Pt/Fe-S-1 is the active sites for ethane dehydrogenation to ethylene and subsequent naphthenes dehydrogenation to aromatics, Brønsted acid sites of ZSM-5 and MFI pore are responsible for ethylene oligomerization and cyclization to naphthenes and further naphthenes dehydrogenation to aromatics. The short spatial space between dehydrogenation active sites and acid sites is beneficial for EDA. And the ethylene generation rate is the rate-determining step of EDA.

The advancement of high-performance oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts is increasingly responsible for energy development. Iron and nitrogen co-doped carbon materials (Fe-N-C) have garnered extensive attention because of their catalytic activity, which is comparable to that of precious metal-containing catalysts. Nevertheless, the precursor ZIF-8 inevitably forms clusters during the conventional pyrolysis preparation procedure, leading to the coverage of Fe-N active sites and inhibiting catalytic performance. In this study, we induced ZIF-8 to deform into a unique interpenetration twin structure (ZIF-8-IT) by introducing the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), it has a concave-convex morphology with abundant facets that enhanced interfacial contactability, thereby reducing particle-to-particle interactions and alleviating agglomeration during pyrolysis. The Fe-N-C-IT catalyst prepared using ZIF-8-IT as a precursor exhibited exceptional ORR performance in alkaline media (E 1/2 = 0.898 V, E 0 = 0.983 V). Furthermore, the Fe-N-C-IT based coulomb electrolytic oxygen sensor demonstrated superior performance compared to Pt/C, it achieved an average response time of 66 s within the 100–1000 ppm oxygen concentration range, with only a 4.9 % current fluctuation observed after 28 days at a concentration of 500 ppm oxygen. This study presents a novel strategy for developing efficient oxygen reduction electrocatalysts through morphology engineering.

Iron-based sulfite (S(IV)) activation has emerged as a novel strategy to generate sulfate radicals (SO 4 •- ) for contaminants degradation. However, numerous studies focused on dissolved iron-induced homogeneous activation processes while the potential of structural Fe(III) remains unclear. In this study, five iron (hydr)oxide soil minerals (FeO x ) including ferrihydrite , schwertmannite , lepidocrocite , goethite and hematite , were successfully employed as sources of structural Fe(III) for S(IV) activation. Results showed that the catalytical ability of structural Fe(III) primarily depended on the crystallinity of FeO x instead of their specific surface area and particle size, with ferrihydrite and schwertmannite being the most active. Furthermore, in-situ ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and 2D-COS analysis revealed that HSO 3 - was initially adsorbed on FeO 6 octahedrons of FeO x via monodentate inner-sphere complexation, ultimately oxidized into SO 4 2- which was then re-adsorbed via outer-sphere complexation. During this process, strong oxidizing SO 4 •- and •OH were formed for pollutants degradation , confirmed by radical quenching experiments and electron spin resonance . Moreover, FeO x /S(IV) system exhibited superior applicability with respect to recycling test, real waters and twenty-six pollutants degradation. Eventually, plausible degradation pathways of three typical pollutants were proposed. This study highlights the feasibility of structural Fe(III)-containing soil minerals for S(IV) activation in wastewater treatment .

Degradation of organic pollutants by in-situ electrochemically synthetic hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) in electro-Fenton (EF) system is important for the treatment of wastewater. In this work, a Fe, Mo co-doped N@TiO 2 electrocatalyst was constructed for H 2 O 2 generation and applied to the degradation of organic dyes. The FeMoN@TiO 2 catalyst in 0.1 M KOH exhibits excellent 2e - Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity and stability, with a yield of up to 1409 mmol gcat -1 h −1 and Faraday efficiency (FE) of 83.4 % at −0.7 V (relative to SCE) for more than 10 h. The in situ generated H 2 O 2 delivers benign organic dyes degradation ability with high methylene blue (MB) removal rate of 98.2 % after 2 h in 0.1 M KOH without adding Fe 2+ . After adding Fe 2+ , the EF process occurs to degrade dyes more efficiently, with Congo red and phenol removal rates of more than 99.0 % and Ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal rate of more than 96.0 % in 0.1 M Na 2 SO 4 solution. It is found that Mo doping increases the active sites of the catalyst, while the dopant of Fe can enhance can improve the electron transfer rate between the catalyst and reactants. Additionally, the synergistic Fe and Mo modulate the electronic structure of Ti, increasing the concentrations of Ti 3+ and chemiadsorbed O. This enhances the electronic conductivity and the reactivity of the catalyst, leading to improved ability for H 2 O 2 generation and organic pollutants degradation. Radical quenching experiments show that the in-situ generated H 2 O 2 reacts with added Fe 2+ to produce a large amount of ·OH, which is the main active substance for organic pollutants degradation. This study provides new insights for non-precious metal oxides to replace precious metals towards in-situ production of H 2 O 2 and degradation of pollutants.

The design of transition metal nitrides with excellent oxygen evolution reaction and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation reaction (HMFOR) is of great significance to achieve the goal of "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality". Herein, Fe-doped bimetallic nitride Fe x Co 1-x ) 4 N was prepared by a simple electron regulation strategy. The introduction of Fe changes the electronic structure of Co and optimizes the adsorption energies of *OH, reduces the potential barrier for the generation of *OOH as a potential-determining step and thus increases the intrinsic OER activity of Co 4 N. In addition, Fe substitution of some of the Co atoms gives (Fe x Co 1-x ) 4 N a higher electrochemical active surface area, which accelerates the electron transfer efficiency and improves the electrical conductivity. The overpotential for (Fe x Co 1-x ) 4 N-0.9 to reach a current density of 10 mA cm −2 in 1 M KOH is only 271 mV. When in 1 M KOH + 50 mM HMF condition, (Fe x Co 1-x ) 4 N-0.9 requires only 1.37 V to reach a current density of 10 mA cm −2 . This work provides practical guidance for developing bifunctional transition metal electrocatalysts with excellent OER and HMFOR activity.

Herein, a nanocomposite of Cu,Ce-containing phosphotungstates (Cu,Ce-PTs) with outstanding laccase-like activity was fabricated via a one-pot microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. Notably, it was discovered that both Fe 3+ and Cr 6+ could significantly enhance the electron transfer rates of Ce 3+ and Ce 4+ , along with generous Cu 2+ with high catalytic activity, thereby promoting the laccase-like activity of Cu,Ce-PTs. The proposed system can be used for the detection of Fe 3+ and Cr 6+ in a range of 0.667–333.33 μg/mL and 0.033–33.33 μg/mL with a low detection limit of 0.135 μg/mL and 0.0288 μg/mL, respectively. The proposed assay exhibits excellent reusability and selectivity and can be used in traditional Chinese medicine samples analysis.

The development of stable and effective catalysts to convert toxic H2S into high value-added sulfur is essential for production safety and environmental protection. However, the inherent defects of traditional iron- and zirconium-based catalysts, such as poor activity, high oxygen consumption, and low sulfur selectivity, limit their further developments and applications. Herein, the Fe–Zr bimetallic organic framework FeUIO-66(x) with different cubic morphologies was synthesized via a facile solvothermal method. The results indicate that the introduction of Fe not only increases the specific surface area and weak L-sites of the catalyst without changing its crystal structure, which provides enough reaction space and more active sites for the adsorption and activation of H2S, but also reduces the activation energy of the reaction, significantly promoting the selective oxidation of H2S. As a result, the as-obtained FeUIO-66(1) catalyst exhibits the highest desulfurization activity and superior durability and water resistance stability, and its H2S conversion and sulfur selectivity within 50 h are 100 and 88%, respectively. More importantly, the structure of the catalyst after the desulfurization reaction is consistent with that of the fresh counterpart. The study offers new insights into the development of effective and stable bimetallic catalysts to eliminate H2S and recycle sulfur.

Electrocatalytic glycerol oxidation reaction to produce high-value organic chemicals has research significance for managing the overproduction of glycerol and handling the energy crisis. Herein, a copper-based self-supporting catalytic electrode with a dynamic Fe-O-Cu optimized coordination (Fe-CuO x /CF) was prepared. The oxygen-bridged asymmetric coordination structure (Fe-O-Cu) optimized the electronic configuration and promoted the formation of the crucial intermediate species. After Fe was embedded in the lattice of copper oxides, a remarkable enhancement in the adsorption capacity of OH - and glycerol was confirmed. As a result, Fe-CuO x /CF exhibited an excellent production capacity of formate, with high faradaic efficiency and selectivity values of 93.65 % and 95.10 %. Concurrent production of formate and high purity hydrogen was achieved in the double-electrode flow electrolyzer. This work provides guiding significance for the optimization of the catalytic coordination and the design of high-efficiency transition metal-based catalysts for electrooxidation of biomass platform molecules.

As the frequency range of electronic devices gradually expands, exploring frequency insensitive electromagnetic wave adsorption (EWA) materials that can achieve effective absorption in all bands has aroused great interest. A series of Fe 1 − x S@C composite materials with three-dimensional conductive networks were successfully prepared in this work. In the preparation process, poly (aryl ether sulfone) with branched carboxylic (PAES-C) was selected as the skeleton and Fe 3+ ions were introduced via chemical adsorption. The main purpose of this work was to develop array porous composite materials with good EWA property. The work proposed a novel controllable method for preparing metal sulfides to explore the electromagnetic wave absorption. This routine was also developed to prepare other M x S@C composites (M = Fe, Cu, Mn). Compared to Mn x S@C and Cu x S@C composites, the RL min value of Fe 1 − x S@C-4 was − 40.6 dB at 13.52 GHz, and at a thickness of 1.5 mm the effective bandwidth reached 3.12 GHz. Furthermore, its effective absorption band covered Ku, X, and C radar bands at different thicknesses.

To overcome the limitations of the Fe(II)-activated percarbonate process for ACT removal, this study introduced cysteine as a complexing agent into the Fe(II)/SPC system and enhanced the degradation efficiency of ACT. Investigations were conducted on the effects of pH, temperature, common anions (Cl−, HCO3− and NO3−) in the water column, and humic acid (HA) on the degrading efficiency of the Cys/Fe(II)/SPC system. The results showed that under ideal conditions, 99.9% removal of ACT at 0.05 mM could be achieved. Alkaline environments inhibited ACT degradation, whereas acidic environments promoted it. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) successfully detected ˙OH and O2˙−, but no 1O2 radical signal was detected. Further research was carried out to determine how much ˙OH and O2˙− contributed to the oxidation process. The results showed that both ˙OH and O2˙− contributed to the degradation of the ACT, with ˙OH's contribution being particularly significant. Mass spectrometry analysis was used to determine the structure of the oxidation products. Vulnerable sites in ACT were predicted using density functional theory. Using LC-MS/MS analysis, seven intermediates of the Cys/Fe(II)/SPC degradation of ACT were individually identified. The results showed that the acetylamino group on ACT and the C–N bond on the benzene ring are susceptible to attack by ˙OH. The T.E.S.T. toxicity prediction model was used to predict the toxicity of ACT and its intermediates. The results showed a trend towards reduced acute toxicity and overall developmental toxicity.

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have wide applications in the biomedical field due to their outstanding physical and chemical properties. However, the potential adverse effects and related mechanisms of IONPs in human organs, especially the lung, are still largely ignored. In this study, we found that group-modified IONPs (carboxylated, aminated and silica coated) induce slight lung cell damage (in terms of the cell cycle, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, cell membrane integrity and DNA damage) at a sublethal dosage. However, aminated IONPs could release more iron ions in the lysosome than the other two types of IONPs, but the abnormally elevated iron ion concentration did not induce ferroptosis. Intriguingly, amino-modified IONPs aggravated the accumulation of intracellular peroxides induced by the ferroptosis activator RSL3 and thus caused ferroptosis in vitro , and the coadministration of amino-modified IONPs and RSL3 induced more severe lung injury in vivo. Therefore, our data revealed that the surface functionalization of IONPs plays an important role in determining their potential pulmonary toxicity, as surface modification influences their degradation behavior. These results provide guidance for the design of future IONPs and the corresponding safety evaluations and predictions.
