With the increasing concern over food safety, the development of smart labels capable of visually monitoring food freshness in real-time has become increasingly urgent. In this study, a novel zinc-based metal-organic framework (Zn-MOF) was synthesized and incorporated into a poly(vinyl alcohol) and starch matrix to prepare PS@Zn-MOF composite films. The films demonstrated colorimetric and fluorescent dual-signal responsiveness, ammonia sensitivity, and antimicrobial properties. A comprehensive evaluation of the films revealed excellent mechanical properties, UV shielding ability, and water vapor barrier capabilities. Furthermore, the films exhibited color stability, with a ΔE value change of <2.4 after 40 days of exposure. When applied to monitor shrimp spoilage, the films shifted from yellow-brown to purple-red in daylight and from blue to violet fluorescence under UV light. The color difference and fluorescence intensity in both response modes were linearly correlated with TVB-N values. The shrimp packaging application demonstrated that the films effectively maintained shrimp freshness. These findings suggest that the dual-signal intelligent freshness monitoring system based on PS@Zn-MOF composite films presents a promising solution to food safety challenges.

Exploration of non-corrosive chemical activation agents that are capable of transforming sustainable biomass into nanocarbon with large specific surface area and suitable heteroatomic content for electrochemical energy storage applications is highly desired. Herein, potassium peroxodisulfate (K 2 S 2 O 8 ) has been proposed as the effective activation agent for the synthesis of N, S co-doped carbon nanosheets (N, S-CNSs) from renewable onions. Different from the other activation agents, it was found that the K 2 S 2 O 8 can act as the physical activating agent and chemical activating agent simultaneously owing to its temperature-dependent decomposition behavior. Consequently, the N, S-CNSs with large specific surface area of 2110.6 \({\mathrm{m}}^{2}{\mathrm{g}}^{-1}\) , optimal oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur-containing functional groups were rationally emerged. The assembled Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors with the as-prepared N, S-CNSs delivered a maximum specific capacity of 141.5 mAh \({\mathrm{g}}^{-1}\) , robust cycling stability with 98.3% capacity retention after 20,000 cycles, and large specific energy up to 113.4 Wh k \({\mathrm{g}}^{-1}\) . As explicitly discussed with the relevant characterizations, the study deeply explored the adaptability of the chemical activating agent in general synthesis of porous carbon-based materials from sustainable biomass, and great insight for designing high-performance electrochemical energy storage devices.

Transition metal selenide-based materials have been demonstrated as promising electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), yet the actual design of a highly efficient and stable electro-catalyst based on these materials still remains a long and arduous challenge. Herein, a predesigned hybrid Zn/Co zeolitic imidazole framework was used to fabricate CoSe2/Co nanoheteroparticles embedded within hierarchically porous Co, N co-doped carbonnanopolyhedra/nanotubes (CoSe2/Co@NC-CNTs) through a facile approach involving controlled carbonization and selenization procedures. As expected, the optimized CoSe2/Co@NC-CNT-1 displayed outstanding electrocatalytic performance for the ORR and OER, with an onset potential of 0.95 V vs. RHE, a half-wave potential of 0.84 V vs. RHE for ORR, and a potential of 1.69 V vs. RHE for OER at 10 mA cm−2. It also exhibited excellent long-term stability and methanol resistance ability, which were superior to commercial IrO2 and the commercial 20 wt% Pt/C catalyst. Notably, the assembled Zn–air battery with CoSe2/Co@NC-CNT-1 showed a low charge–discharge voltage gap (0.696 V at 10 mA cm−2) and a high peak power density (100.28 mW cm−2) with long-term cycling stability. These superior performances can be ascribed to the synergistic effects of the highly active CoSe2/Co nanoheterostructure, hierarchically porous structure with a large surface area, high electrical conductivity and uniform doping of the Co and N.

The exploration of a non-corrosive and sustainable strategy to produce thin graphene-like porous carbon nanosheets with large specific surface area for electrochemical energy storage applications is highly desired yet a huge challenge. Herein, we report a eutectic salt induced self-activation process for the synthesis of a serials of porous carbon nanosheets with well-controlled microstructures just by simply changing the type of eutectic salt. The experiment results illustrated that the in-situ formed Na 2 CO 3 , which is usually “inert” when serves as a chemical activation reagent at relatively low temperature, display a significant enhanced chemical activation in eutectic salt medium. Specifically, thin graphene-like porous carbon nanosheets with a large specific surface of 1739.5 m 2 /g can be obtained in CsCl-NaCl eutectic salt. When acts as a cathode for Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZSCs), a high specific capacity of 169.1 mAh/g (at 0.1 A/g), large specific energy of 62.24 W h kg −1 (at an ultrahigh specific power of 16 kW g −1 ) and cyclic stability of 91.7 % after 10,000 cycles. In addition, a quasi-solid-state ZSC device, which can freely realize series to increase the working voltage, demonstrated its hold a potential for practical application. This strategy combines the advantages of the in-situ chemical activation with the advantages of the eutectic salt medium, which offers an alternative way for the producing of various functional nanocarbons for a variety of applications including electrochemical energy storage.

Chlorinated phenols are priority pollutants that require efficient low-temperature removal technologies. Here, we synthesize a series of spinel-type MAl 2 O 4 (M = Co, Mg, Zn, Cu) supports and deposit 1 wt% Pd via incipient-wetness impregnation to evaluate their hydrodechlorination (HDC) performance toward 4-chlorophenol under ambient aqueous conditions (30 °C, 0.2 MPa H 2 ). Catalytic screening shows that the identity of the divalent A-site cation strongly modulates activity: Pd/Co-Al achieves 91.8 % conversion with > 98.3 % selectivity to phenol, outperforming Pd/Ni-Al (84.7 %) and the remaining analogues. Pd/Cu-Al exhibits almost no conversion (<5.0 %), while Pd/Mg-Al and Pd/Zn-Al give moderate conversions (ca.55.4–58.7 %). Detailed characterization by XRD, N 2 -physisorption, H 2 -TPR, XPS and STEM reveals that the superior performance of Pd/Co-Al is rooted in (i) strong metal–support interactions that stabilize a balanced Pd 2+ /Pd 0 surface ensemble, (ii) coherent lattice matching at Pd(1 1 1)/CoAl 2 O 4 (311) interfaces that suppress particle growth, and (iii) high spinel thermostability that mitigates leaching and coking. A 30 h continuous-flow test confirms stable operation without activity loss. This work elucidates how subtle variations in spinel composition dictate Pd electronic structure and interfacial geometry, providing design principles for next-generation HDC catalysts.

The rational design of excellent electrocatalysts is significant for triggering the slow kinetics of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in rechargeable metal–air batteries. Hereby, we report a bifunctional catalytic material with core–shell structure constructed by Co3O4 nanowire arrays as cores and ultrathin NiFe-layered double hydroxides (NiFe LDHs) as shells (Co3O4@NiFe LDHs). The introduction of Co3O4 nanowires could provide abundant active sites for NiFe LDH nanosheets. Most importantly, the deposition of NiFe LDHs on the surface of Co3O4 can modulate the surface chemical valences of Co, Ni, and Fe species via changing the electron donor and/or electron absorption effects, finally achieving the balance and optimization of ORR and OER properties. By this core–shell design, the maximum ORR current densities of Co3O4@NiFe LDHs increase to 3–7 mA cm–2, almost an order of magnitude increases compared to pure NiFe LDH (0.45 mA cm–2). Significantly, an OER overpotential as low as 226 mV (35 mA cm–2) is achieved in the designed core–shell catalyst, which is comparable to and/or even better than those of commercial Ir/C. Hence, the primary zinc–air battery employing Co3O4@NiFe LDH as an air electrode achieves a high specific capacity (667.5 mA h g–1) and first-class energy density (797.6 W h kg–1); the rechargeable battery can show superior reversibility, excellent stability, and voltage gaps of ∼0.8 V (∼60% of round-trip efficiency) in >1200 continuous cycles. Furthermore, the flexible quasi-solid-state zinc–air battery with bendable ability holds practical potential in portable and wearable electronic devices.

Rationally designed and synthesized Schiff base sensor CMTAH containing coumarin fluorophores by the coupling of coumarin aldehyde and thiophene-2-carbohydrazide and acts as differentially selective chemosensor via colorimetric/ratiometric responses to Cu(II)/Zn(II) ions with fluorescence switchable strategy in aqueous media . Variation in absorption and emission spectra of CMTAH with different metal cations in aqueous media reveal high-affinity binding to Cu(II)/Zn(II) ions over other coexisting cations. Moreover, the spectrometric titrations and Job's plot curves substantiated the stoichiometric ratio of 1:1 for Cu(II)/Zn(II) complexes formation with low detection limits of 141 nM and 72 nM, respectively. Particularly, the responding mechanism of CMTAH toward Cu(II)/Zn(II) ions was investigated by density functional theory calculations. Notably, the molecular logic gates were established with the combination of CMTAH for the intelligentialized recognition of Cu(II)/Zn(II) ions. Additionally, the compatibility and permeability of CMTAH were attributed to Schiff base group, which exhibited remarkable responding and bioimaging in living cells and zebrafish. Notably, CMTAH could be used to image in Drosophila larvae with a clearly visible profile of internal organs and effectively capture Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions in living Drosophila larvae, which lay the foundation of sensors in the field of Drosophila biological imaging research.

In this study, an investigation is conducted into the degradation of nitenpyram (NTP) using highly efficient APMMO/PDS/Vis system. As photocatalysts, silver phosphate (AP) and calcined Zn–Al layered double hydroxides (MMO) exhibit high efficiency in achieving charge separation. Besides, the injection of electrons into peroxydisulfate (PDS) from the APMMO can contribute to obtaining the species in the active state with higher efficiency. Based on the APMMO/PDS/Vis system, 50 mg/L of nitenpyram (NTP, 50 mL) can be completely removed in 60 min using 0.8 g/L photocatalyst and 0.2 g/L PDS under the optimum condition and visible light (780 nm > λ > 420 nm). Meanwhile, as demonstrated under visible light within 30 min, an ultrahigh degradation efficiency can be achieved by NTP based on APMMO1/PDS/Vis system. Besides, the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technique and radical quenching experiments suggested 1 O 2 , h + , SO 4 − •, •O 2 − , and •OH are all contributory to the removal of pollutants. Given the outcomes achieved by LC/MS system and mass spectrometry, the primary degradation intermediates of NTP end up being converted into photodegradation products (such as 2-Chloropyridine, 6-Chloropurine Riboside and dl -Leucine). Additionally, there are three potential photodegradation pathways to NTP degradation have been deployed. Moreover, the NTP light degradation occurring in APMMO1/PDS/Vis system is competent under the three types of real water sample. Accordingly, the high-efficiency APMMO1/PDS/Vis system is fit for use in water pollution control for agricultural productions.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) suffer from dendrite growth and side reactions, which severely limit their stability and commercialization. To address these issues, we developed a novel self-regulating hybrid interfacial layer composed of sodium alginate (SA) and in-situ formed zinc phosphate (ZP), which effectively regulates Zn 2+ flux and promotes uniform deposition. Specifically, SA coordinates with Zn 2+ through carboxyl groups to buffer local ion accumulation, while ZP improves ionic conductivity to facilitate rapid and uniform Zn 2+ transport. The synergistic interface mitigates interfacial ion concentration gradients and promotes homogeneous nucleation and lateral Zn growth, resulting in preferential (002)-oriented deposition and effective dendrite suppression. Therefore, the modified Zn anode demonstrates exceptional cycling stability, operating stably for >3000 h at 1 mA cm −2 and 1 mAh cm −2 , and maintains stable performance exceeding 3050 h at 5 mA cm −2 . This work proposes a scalable and eco-friendly interfacial strategy for stabilizing Zn anodes and highlights the potential of Zn 2+ flux modulation in advancing practical AZIBs.

Rechargeable metal–air batteries require nonprecious, efficient, and durable bifunctional electrodes for catalyzing the oxygen reduction/evolution reaction (ORR/OER). Here, we report a facile, scalable synthesis of a self-standing bifunctional electrode with CoMn2O4 (CMO) in situ embedded in nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibers (NCNFs) by electrospinning. Strong coupling between CMO and NCNFs facilitates the multiphase charge transport process. Meanwhile, the conductive carbonaceous network contributes to the overall stability by protecting CMO from corrosion and aggregation. As a result, the nanocomposite exhibits remarkable Pt-like ORR activity (onset/half-wave potential of 1.05/0.83 V) and high OER activity (overpotential of 340 mV at 10 mA cm−2). The rechargeable Zn–air battery assembled with CMO/NCNF delivers a peak power density of 224 mW cm−2 and a low charge–discharge voltage gap of 0.85 V even after 350 cycles at 10 mA cm−2. Furthermore, the assembled bendable solid-state Zn–air battery shows rechargeability, suggesting the promising potential of spinel/carbon hybrids in flexible devices.

Efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts are essential for high-performance rechargeable Zn-air batteries (rZABs). Herein, a porous hollow carbon nanoshell (H-Co@FeCo/N/C) in which FeN x and CoN x metal sites are atomically dispersed and interfaced intimately with metallic Co nanoparticles was derived from pyrolysis of polydopamine-coated ZnCo-ZIFs adsorbed with Fe 3+ ; the chemical interactions among different organic and metal species during the polymer-coating process was inverstigated; their role in regulating the size of the Co nanoparticles, the structure of the hollow carbon nanoshell and the formation of the FeN x -CoN x dual active sites was revealed. The H-Co@FeCo/N/C showed superior bifunctional oxygen electrocatalytic activity (Δ E = 0.698 V) and mass activity of 6.8 A g cat. −1 at 0.9 V, outperforming the commercial Pt/C/RuO 2 catalysts or the Fe/N/C or Co/N/C counterparts. When assembled for rZABs, the H-Co@FeCo/N/C cathode displayed a long cycle life of 200 h ( E gap of about 1.0 V@10 mA cm -2 ).
