Plasmonic nonmetal semiconductors with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects possess extended light-response ranges and can act as highly efficient H 2 generation photocatalysts. Herein, an LSPR-enhanced 0D/2D CdS/MoO 3− x heterojunction has been synthesized by the growth of 0D CdS nanoparticles on 2D plasmonic MoO 3− x elliptical nanosheets via a simple coprecipitation method. Taking advantage of the LSPR effect of the MoO 3− x elliptical nanosheets, the light absorption of the CdS/MoO 3− x heterojunction was extended from 600 nm to the near-infrared region (1400 nm). Furthermore, the introduction of 2D plasmonic MoO 3− x elliptical nanosheets not only provided a platform for the growth of CdS nanoparticles, but also contributed to the construction of an LSPR-enhanced S-scheme structure due to the interface between the MoO 3− x and CdS, accelerating the separation of light-induced electrons and holes. Therefore, the CdS/MoO 3− x heterojunction exhibited higher photocatalytic H 2 generation activity than pristine CdS under visible light irradiation, including under 420, 450, 550, and 650 nm monochromic light, as well as improved photo-corrosion performance.

Highly conductive thin films with suitable mechanical performances play a significant role in modern electronic industry. Herein, a series of ternary conductive polymer composites were fabricated by incorporating carbon black (CB) into binary conductive polymer composites of poly(amide-imide) (PAI) and polyaniline (PANI) to enhance their mechanical and conductive properties simultaneously. By varying the composition of PAI/PANI/CB ternary films, the conductivity enhanced by two orders of magnitude compared with the sum of PAI/PANI and PAI/CB binary conductive polymer composites, and a high conductivity of 1160 S m−1was achieved. The improved conductivity is mainly because much more continuous conductive networks were constructed in the ternary conductive polymer composites. With the help of the unusual morphology, the tensile strength was also enhanced by more than 80% from 21 to 38 MPa. The origin for the improved morphology was discussed for further improvement.Keywords:conductive polymer composite;ternary blend;poly(amide-imide);polyaniline;carbon black

A Ni–Mg bimetal-doped Zn(O,S) photocatalyst has been synthesized, characterized, and tested for several photocatalytic applications. The hydrogen generation reaction, hydrogenation reaction for chemical transformation, detoxification of hexavalent chromium, and mixed dye (MB + RhB + MO) degradation under simulated solar-light illumination were confirmed. The essential characterization results indicated improved oxygen vacancy sites on the catalyst with enhanced photoresponse, better photocarrier separation, and facile charge transfer properties. A typical catalyst, NMZ-S10, was evaluated with a 1000-cycle CV test to demonstrate its long-term use for industrial application. Stable reusability experiments for the HER, PHR, PHC reaction, and PDM also supported the long-term application. The photocatalytic HER of NMZ-S10 could evolve hydrogen at a rate of 4000 μmol g−1 h−1. 30 ppm azobenzene-to-aniline conversion was completely done in 2 h of reaction. Detoxification of 30 ppm hexavalent chromium was conducted in 70 min of reaction. Finally, 10.5 ppm MB–RhB–MO mixed dye degradation was carried out in 1 h of reaction. The as-synthesized NMZ-S10 catalyst has demonstrated its capability to overcome energy and environmental issues promisingly. The great photocatalytic activities are discussed and elucidated with a plausible mechanism to rationalize the superb catalytic performance.

The bacterial infections, especially wound infection, have become a growing problem threatening the human health. Small molecular antimicrobial agents were synthesized to fight against the bacteria but the clinical application in wound inflection treatment was restricted because of their hydrophobicity and poor skin permeation. Here, we synthesized a novel quinoline compound to be used as an antimicrobial agent. Due to its hydrophobic property, this quinoline compound could be successfully encapsulated into poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PCL-PEG) nanoparticles (NPs) with a mean size of about 100 nm and showed a sustained drug release manner in vitro. Compared to the free drug of this quinoline compound, these drug-loaded PCL-PEG NPs had better water solubility and lower cytotoxicity in vitro. Results of in vivo wound healing experiments demonstrated that these drug-loaded NPs could not only greatly suppress the bacterial infection around the wound, but also significantly accelerate the curing rate of wound. Thus, these quinoline compound-loaded PCL-PEG NPs could act as a promising drug delivery system for wound healing applications.

Lithium sulfur batteries (LSBs) have been considered as one of the most promising options for next generation high-performance batteries. However, the heavy shuttle effect and inferior redox conversion during the charge/discharge processes of the batteries have greatly hindered their further applications. In this study, to address these disadvantages of LSBs, Fe/Fe 3 C/FeN 0.0324 heterostructured nanocubes were designed and prepared through high temperature carbonization process using Prussian blue precursor. Then the Fe/Fe 3 C/FeN 0.0324 nanocubes were used to modify the commercial polypropylene (PP) separator, which can greatly catalyze the redox transformation of polysulfides and provide sufficient active sites for chemisorption . As result, the modified separator endowed LSBs with excellent rate capacity and cycle stability, delivering a high-capacity of 1025 mAh/g at 0.5 C with nearly 100% coulombic efficiency. It also displayed a superb cycling performance with a per-cycle capacity attenuation rate of 0.09% after 300 cycles. When the current density increased to 1 C with the S loading of 1.73 mg cm −2 , Fe/Fe 3 C/FeN 0.0324 -PP separator presented a satisfactory capacity decay rate of 0.05% per cycle after 1000 cycles. Besides, it also presented outstanding electrochemical performance even at high sulfur loading of 4.5 mg cm −2 . This work has provided a new avenue for the design of nanomaterials with synergistic effect of catalytic conversion and chemisorption of polysulfides for the promotion of high-performance Li-S batteries.

Two novel diols having both imide and aromatic groups in main chains, including N,N-(pyromellitoyl)-bis-l-phenylalanine diacid ester glycol (PBDCG) and N,N-(pyromellitoyl)-bis-l-phenylalanine diacid ester butynediol (PBDCB), were synthesized. Then, the novel thermoplastic-segmented poly(urethane–imide)s (PUIs), in which 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and the diols as the hard segments and poly(tetrahydrofuran) as the soft segments, were prepared via two-step polymerization. The prepared polymers were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), gel permeation chromatography, tensile tests and UL 94 vertical burn test. TGA result indicates that the novel PUIs with the rigid hard segments have slower degradation rates than the conventional polyurethanes, and PBDCB-based PUIs are more thermally stable than PBDCG-based PUIs. DSC and x-ray diffraction results confirm that they are amorphous structures. Moreover, DSC analysis indicates that the glass transition temperature of PUIs increases by increasing the contents of hard segments. The weight-average molecular weights of PUIs are in the range of 1.12–4.19 × 104. The UL 94 vertical burn test according to the ASTDM D3801 test method indicates that the PUIs are classified under vertical ranking V-2.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of S-ketamine (S-KET) against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) – induced liver damage and oxidative stress, as well as to elucidate the related underlying mechanisms. Blood was collected to measure biochemical parameters (alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin (TB) and γ-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT)) and the liver was harvested for histopathological analysis of enzymes related to the antioxidant response (malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX)). Liver cell apoptosis was evaluated using the TUNEL assay. In addition, the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins and the nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling pathway were detected by Western blot analysis to explore potential mechanisms. S-KET protected the liver from CCl4-induced damage. The changes to the liver biochemical parameters (increased ALT, AST, ALP, TB, and γ-GT) and oxidative stress-related indicators (increased MDA; depleted SOD, GSH, and GSH-PX) induced by CCl4 were inhibited by S-KET. S-Ket also inhibited CCl4-induced cell apoptosis, the changes in expression of related proteins, and blocked CCl4-induced liver injury and oxidative stress via activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. S-KET effectively protected the liver by inhibition of CCl4-induced damage via upregulation the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

The rational design and controllable synthesis of excellent bifunctional oxygen reduction and evolution reaction (ORR/OER) electrocatalysts are of vital importance for zinc–air battery applications. Herein, we report nitrogen/sulfur-codoped carbon nanosheets (NSC) decorated with dense Co9S8/Co1−xS heterostructures (Co9S8/Co1−xS@NSC), prepared by a one-pot salt template-assisted pyrolysis procedure. The population of the Co9S8/Co1−xS heterostructure can be effectively controlled by tuning the precursor components. Salt templates constructed hierarchical porosity for the wide-open carbon nanosheets, which maximized the N functional groups to anchor highly dispersive Co9S8/Co1−xS species. Experiments and theoretical simulations revealed notable electronic interactions within Co9S8/Co1−xS interfaces, which can effectively optimize the adsorption/desorption behaviors of intermediates in ORR/OER, thus promoting the bifunctional electrocatalytic performance. The half-wave potential for the ORR of 0.86 V and the OER electrocatalytic potential of 1.52 V at 10 mA cm−2 were obtained. Benefiting from the strong coupling effect between the Co9S8/Co1−xS species and the carbon substrate, superior durability was obtained for 2000 ORR/OER cycles. The practical zinc–air battery based on the Co9S8/Co1−xS@NSC cathode manifested a high open-circuit voltage, small voltage gap and robust reversibility. Our study revealed the great potential of the bi-elemental (Co and S) heterostructure in enhancing the ORR/OER activity, which suggests a logical extension to other electrocatalysis systems.

Novel phenothiazine-based hyper-cross-linked porous polymers (PZ-HCPs) containing N, S double electron-rich atoms were synthesized using Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption test showed that the specific surface areas (S BET ) of the PZ-HCPs were between 131 m 2 g −1 and 209 m 2 g −1 . In addition, the π-electron-conjugated structure and the presence of N and S electron-rich heteroatoms in the PZ-HCPs facilitated its high iodine capture ability in both iodine solution and iodine vapor. Meanwhile, adsorption mechanism studies showed that the adsorbed iodine in the adsorbent existed as I 3 – and I 5 – . The adsorption behavior of PZ-HCP-1:4 for iodine conformed to the pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic model and Freundlich isotherm model. This work supplies a strategy for synthesizing HCPs as adsorbents for the treatment of radioactive iodine in nuclear waste .

Water was the source of life, in order to solve the serious water pollution problem facing the world, researchers have proposed many solutions. Among them, photoelectric catalytic technology based on semiconductor materials was an ideal and sustainable solution. Herein, by combining successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) with sol-gel electrospinning two strategies, a novel S-scheme heterojunction based on flexible and hierarchical BiOI/TiO 2 nanofibrous membranes (BiOI/TiO 2 NFM) was fabricated. The degradation rates of tetracycline (TC) and Rhodamine B (RHB) were 98.7% and 95.6%, respectively, under visible light irradiation. The main reason, except for the benefits offered by the hierarchical nanofiber structure, such as the large surface area, tightly connected interfaces and more exposed active sites, other advantages derived from photogenerated carrier transfer and superior redox ability were also momentous. To reveal the formed S-scheme heterojunction, a variety of test methods were used to characterize and test. These studies showed a significant increase in charge separation efficiency in the BiOI/TiO 2 NFM, and the charge transport of S-scheme heterojunction was demonstrated. This study may offer new design ideas for the design and construction of novel structures of S-scheme heterojunctions.

Since the key aroma compounds and bioactive profiles of Phyllanthus emblica fruit wine (PFW) driven by different yeast strains remain unclear, this study aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of five Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains on physicochemical properties, bioactive components, and volatile organic compound (VOC) profiles in PFW. Using an integrated flavoromics approach with chemometric analysis, we identified 110 VOCs. FR and D254 enhanced ester concentrations and antioxidant activity respectively, whereas strain L2323 significantly altered aroma complexity by promoting specific esters and alcohols. Multivariate analyses identified methyl nitrate and n-propyl acetate as discriminant markers among strains. Aroma-activity analyses further highlighted ethyl hexanoate, isoamyl acetate, and n-propyl acetate as major aroma contributors with distinctive strain-dependent distributions. These findings provide critical guidance for yeast strain selection and fermentation optimization to improve PFW quality, offering new insights for the development of functional fruit wines.

Recently, it was reported photocatalytic H 2 O 2 generation performed in biphasic system could significantly increase the H 2 O 2 yield. Aiming to further improve the H 2 O 2 yield, hydrophobic heterojunction of α-S and vacancy-rich g-C 3 N 4 (CNN) was constructed. H 2 O 2 production performance tests demonstrated the 0.2α-S/CNN composite achieved H 2 O 2 yields 1.72 and 1.99 times higher than pristine CNN and α-S, respectively. N-(C) 3 bonded nitrogen(N 3 C ) promoted oxygen activation, and heterojunction facilitated the separation of photogenerated holes and electrons. These contributed more effective photocatalytic synthesis of H 2 O 2 . The optimal 0.2α-S/CNN achieved a production rate of 2218 μmol g −1 , with an impressive apparent quantum yield (AQE) of 6.92 % under 455 nm monochromatic light, outperforming the state-of-the-art catalysts. The proposed mechanism suggested that photogenerated electrons migrated from α-S to CNN, reducing adsorbed O 2 to form •O 2 − radicals. These radicals subsequently reacted with water in the aqueous phase to generate H 2 O 2 via 2e − ORR. Due to the strong hydrophobicity of the catalyst, most •O 2 − radicals were generated in benzyl alcohol (BA) phase, while H 2 O 2 predominantly formed in the aqueous phase. This spatial separation delayed H 2 O 2 decomposition, facilitating its accumulation and enhancing overall yield.
