In this work, a metal-free electrode substrate with unequal amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped graphene (N, P-G) and different spacer contents is synthesized from activated carbon (AC) via a one-step synthesis technique. Characterization of the chemical structures of this material shows that it has more active bonds and improves electrochemical performance as the anneal temperature increase. The unequal dope by the ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus is more than 2:1 can significantly improve oxidation-reduction reaction (ORR). With a mass ratio of 10% platinum, carbon (Pt/C) to 10% AC @ N, P-G as 2:1, the P-G composite electrodes demonstrate superior heat dissipation performance in comparison to traditional Pt/C electrodes due to the higher thermal uniformity and shorter thermal transport response time . With AC @ N, P-G as the electrode substrate material , a maximum output performance of 0.551 Wcm −2 is obtained at various temperatures, humidities, and mass ratio conditions, indicate a composite material with excellent ORR stability and high heat dissipation capacity on the electrode surface . Our experimental results show that an electrode substrate material with unequal amounts of N, P-G with AC spacer content is a promising candidate as a non-metallic substrate for proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells.

Synthesis of new carbon nanostructures with tunable properties is vital for precisely regulating electrochemical performance in the wide applications. Herein, we report a novel approach for the oxidative polymerization of N- and P-bearing copolymers from the self-assembly of three different monomers (aniline, pyrrole, and phytic acid), and further prepare the respective carbon nanostructures with relatively consistent N dopant (6.2%–8.0%, atom) and varying P concentrations (0.4%–2.8%, atom) via controllable pyrolysis . The impacts of phytic acid addition on the compositional, structural, and morphological evolution of the copolymers and the resulting nanocarbons are well studied through a spectrum of characterizations including N 2 sorption , Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatograph, scanning/transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Gradual fragmentation of the nanosphere structures is evidenced with increasing addition of phytic acid, leading to different nanostructures from hollow nanospheres to 3D aggregates. Nanocarbons decorated with N and P dopants from pyrolysis are further utilized as anode materials in lithium-ion batteries, demonstrating enhanced electrochemical performance, i . e ., a reversible capacity of 380 mA·h·g −1 at 2 A·g −1 for NPC-0.5 during 200 cycles. The superior performance originates from the balanced porosity, and appropriate concentrations of P and pyrrolic N, thus pointing the direction for designing high-performance anode materials.

Supercapacitor with high storage capacity and small volumes are the development trends of miniaturization and portable energy storage systems. Herein, we design a novel self-supporting P-doped carbon nanotube (P-CNT) intercalating NiCo 2 O 4 /CoP core–shell polyhedron film. P-CNT is an ideal substrate with high electrical conductivity and interconnected porous architecture, which can enable the electrons transport to an external circuit from the electroactive component. NiCo 2 O 4 /CoP core–shell fluffy polyhedrons are derived from metal-organic frameworks with rich oxygen vacancies and abundant characteristics of pseudocapacitance, as well as better wettability. The self-supporting composite film readily achieves an ultra-high gravimetric and volumetric capacitance of 1918.4 F g −1 and 1074.3 F cm −3 at 1 A g −1 . Accordingly, as-assembled hybrid supercapacitors using two binder-free electrodes, i.e., a self-supporting composite film as the positive electrode and P-doped CNT integrating graphene film as the negative electrode, harvest a remarkable gravimetric/volumetric energy density of 68.6 W h kg −1 (41.8 W h L −1 ) at 800 W kg −1 (488 W L −1 ). Our work suggests that the rational-designed NiCo 2 O 4 /CoP@P-CNTs electrode is a competitive candidate for designing next-generation supercapacitors with high volumetric energy density.

In this paper, a novel nanocomposite fulvic acid reduced graphene oxide (FA-rGO) and Co-phthalocyanine nanorods (CoPcNRs) was prepared and used to construct an electrochemical sensor for simultaneous detection of catechol (CC), hydroquinone (HQ), phenol (PN) and p-nitrophenol (p-NP). FA as reductant used to prepare FA-rGO nanocomposite, which fabricated by hydrothermal method and freeze-drying process. The method is environmentally friendly and realizes the gentle reduction of GO. CoPcNRs were synthesized by surfactant-assisted ultrasonic method. The microstructure and morphologies of the as-prepared materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The electrochemical oxidation of CC, HQ, PN and p-NP was investigated using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results show that the FA-rGO/CoPcNRs modified electrode exhibits excellent electrochemical activity toward the simultaneous redox of CC, HQ, PN and p-NP. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges of CC, HQ, PN and p-NP were 1 μM–650 μM, 2 μM–450 μM, 2 μM–160 μM, 2 μM–140 μM, with 0.3 μM, 0.65 μM, 0.65 μM and 0.65 μM, respectively. In addition, the modified electrode showed good selectivity, sensitivity and stability. The application in real samples was also evaluated, and the recoveries suggesting that FA-rGO/CoPcNRs nanocomposites could be used as an excellent potential reaction platform for the simultaneous determination of CC, HQ, PN and p-NP in environmental samples.

Photocatalysis based on metal sulfide semiconductor is considered as an economic, safe, renewable, and clean technology. However, the availability of photocatalysts is limited by the low solar energy utilization efficiency and the fast recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Developing a hollow heterostructure photocatalyst based on semiconductors for enhancing solar energy utilization and separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers is crucial in the photocatalytic H 2 production reaction. The as-prepared 3D hierarchical nanocages photocatalyst CuS@ZnIn 2 S 4 with abundant and compact nanosheets 2D/2D hetero-interfaces displayed an improved photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate as high as 7910 μmol h −1 g −1 in the absence of any cocatalyst. This is the first report of the use of CuS nanosheets-assembled hollow cubic cages to construct 3D hierarchical nanocages photocatalysts. The close distance between the two nanosheet subunits induce the strong interaction, which was advantage to the separation and transfer of charge carriers. In addition, the hollow structure can not only enhance light adsorption, but also suppress photogenerated carrier recombination. The experimental characterizations and theory calculations confirmed that the strong interaction between CuS and ZnIn 2 S 4 2D/2D hetero-interfaces can extremely facilitate the separation of photogenerated charge carriers and accelerate the electrons transfer. The present work provides a feasible method to construct heterojunction photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution via water splitting powered.

Solid-state sodium metal batteries have attracted great interest because of their improved safety and abundant Na resources. However, the interfacial resistances and instabilities induced by parasitic reactions, together with Na dendrite issues, result in reduced rate capability and poor cycling stability. Here, we address these challenges by intrinsically inhibiting parasitic interfacial redox reactions through enhanced P-O covalency in Na 3 Zr 2 Si 2 PO 12 (NZSP) with Na 2 SiF 6 incorporation, wherein the high electronegativity of F strengthens P-O covalency. Additionally, SnF 2 coating provides a sodiophilic surface and stabilizes the NZSP interface, which is essential for effective electrochemical cycling. This integrated approach significantly reduces interfacial impedance to 2.0 Ω cm 2 , enabling stable Na plating/stripping for 3600 hours at 0.5 mA cm -2 /0.25 mAh cm -2 . The full cell with Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 positive electrode demonstrates stable cycling with high-rate capability (87.5% capacity retention after 2500 cycles at 1 C and 96.1% capacity retention after 1200 cycles at 5 C). This study sheds light on the development of high-performance quasi-solid-state sodium batteries.

This study introduces a novel p -diethylene glycol monomethyl ether cinnamyl formamide-based disulfide monomer , N,N′ -(disulfanediylbis(2,1-phenylene)) bis(4-(4-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy) phenyl)-2-oxobut-3-enamide) (Mp-BSCF), designed to reduce the volume shrinkage of photosensitive resins and initiate monomer polymerization under 455 nm LED light irradiation. The photochemical properties and photoinitiation efficiency of Mp-BSCF are systematically investigated using UV–vis absorption spectroscopy , electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and real-time infrared spectroscopy . Although its weak absorption around 455 nm, Mp-BSCF can generate arylthiyl radicals under 455 nm LED irradiation, and then effectively initiate the polymerization of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA)/A glycerolate dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) system. Increasing Mp-BSCF addition enhances the final double bond conversion and maximum polymerization rate of the TEGDMA/Bis-GMA system, reaching up to 82.0 % and 2.02 % s −1 , respectively. Notably, Mp-BSCF significantly reduces the volume shrinkage of the photopolymerization system, with the addition of 10 % Mp-BSCF resulting in a 50 % reduction compared to the control system. This reduction is attributed to the dynamic reversible nature of the S S bond “breaking-recovery” and the intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction. Additionally, Mp-BSCF improves the thermal stability, friction resistance, and hardness of the TEGDMA/Bis-GMA photopolymerization system.

The silicon (Si) anode boasts an exceptionally high theoretical capacity (4200 mAh g −1 ), making it an attractive candidate for advanced lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, its practical application is limited by poor electrical conductivity and disastrous volume expansion. In this work, we have successfully synthesized a yolk-shell composite material (Si@H-CoNPSC) consisting of N, P, S co-doped carbon encapsulated silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) via a self-template method based on the Kirkendall effect. The Si@H-CoNPSC anode exhibits excellent electrochemical performance, after 300 cycles, keeping a specific capacity of 872.8 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 . Additionally, after 150 cycles, it retains 1305.8 mAh g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 , with a capacity retention of 91.1 %. These outstanding results are mainly due to the co-doped hollow carbon shell, which improves the anode’s conductivity and reduces volume changes during cycling. This study provides new insights for the designing of silicon-carbon anode structures for high-performance LIBs.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a representative persistent organic pollutant that exerts toxic effects on aquatic organisms. As an alternative to PFOS, sodiump-perfluorous nonenoxybenzene sulfonate (OBS) has been frequently detected in aquatic environments and human tissues in recent years. However, its toxic effects on aquatic organisms and potential health risks to humans remain unclear. Zebrafish embryos are transparent and amenable to in vivo manipulation and observation. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated its developmental toxicity in zebrafish embryos, with PFOS as the positive control. We exposed zebrafish embryos to different concentrations of OBS (15, 20, and 25 mg/L) and PFOS (15 mg/L) for 2–168 h post fertilization (hpf) and then examined physiological and gene expression changes. At 24 hpf, spontaneous twitches in the 25 mg/L OBS group decreased to (5 ± 0.34)/min. By 48 hpf, the 20 mg/L OBS group’s hatching rate was (47.78 ± 2.22)%, significantly lower than the control. At 72 hpf, heart rates in both the PFOS and OBS groups were elevated, at 82 ± 0.6, 84.5 ± 0.5, 89.4 ± 0.3, and 93.7 ± 0.4, respectively. Similarly to PFOS, OBS induced developmental toxicity in zebrafish embryos. In addition, both OBS and PFOS exposure downregulated the expression level of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 in zebrafish embryos, with a notable 0.53-fold decrease observed in the 25 mg/L OBS group. Conversely, they upregulated the expression levels of pro-apoptotic Bax, Caspase-3, and Caspase-9, with Caspase-3 expression increasing 1.14-, 1.5-, and 1.7-fold in the 15 mg/L PFOS, 20 mg/L OBS, and 25 mg/L OBS groups, respectively. These OBS- and PFOS-induced changes in gene expression increased apoptosis, suggesting that OBS can induce developmental toxicity in zebrafish embryos, and that its effect is comparable to that of PFOS. Therefore, considering its aquatic toxicity, measures aimed at limiting or remediating OBS pollution in the environment are necessary.

Graphical A novel and facile strategy was applied for designing and fabricating a bioinspired 3D hierarchical SC (sodium citrate)-functionalized MgAl-LDHs-based magnetic micromotor as an active self-propelled micromachine for the adsorption and removal of TCH or PNP from water. This paper reports a novel bioinspired 3D hierarchical sodium citrate (SC)–functionalized layered double hydroxides (LDHs)-based magnetic micromotor as an active self-propelled micromachine for the adsorption and removal of TCH or PNP from water. This micromotor was composed of MgAl-based layered double hydroxides intercalated with citrate anions (CA) and MgFe 2 O 4 fiber/Mn 3 O 4 . The outer SC-functionalized MgAl-LDH layer functioned as a functional unit for TCH or PNP adsorption, MgFe 2 O 4 fibers acted as a buffer layer, facilitating the nucleation and growth of MgAl-LDH. MgFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles provided magnetism for recycling. Mn 3 O 4 served as a catalyst in decomposing H 2 O 2 for self-propulsion of the micromotor. The obtained micromotor exhibited a circle motion form with an average speed of 147.50 µm s −1 in 5 wt% H 2 O 2 . Due to the cooperation of self-propelled movement with interlayer water repellency after SC intercalation, these micromotors exhibited a rapid removal rate of antibiotics or organic pollutants from water. The maximum adsorption capacities of SC-MgAl-LDH/MgFe 2 O 4 /Mn 3 O 4 toward tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) and p -nitrophenol (PNP) were 146.20 and 127.39 mg g −1 in the presence of 5 wt% H 2 O 2 . Therefore, this study provides an efficient option for wastewater treatment.

The rapid development of intelligent wearable devices and health monitoring equipment demands bio-based materials that integrate multiple functions with enhanced durability. Herein, this work is an first attempt to develop flexible electromagnetic shielding and stress-strain sensing based on a composite of polydopamine (PDA) modified-MXene (p-MXene) film with waterborne polyurethane (WPU)/bacterial cellulose (BC) film. The durable p-MXene@WPU/BC composite films are found to demonstrate excellent mechanical properties (370 MPa) and stable interfacial adhesion, attributing to the interlocking network structure between WPU and WBC and the strong hydrogen bonding between p-MXene layer and WPU/BC layer. The resultant composite film displays remarkable mechanosensing performance, facilitating the accurate and reliable detection of human physiological signals. Importantly, the prepared composite film could effectively reflect and absorb electromagnetic waves through the high conductivity of p-MXene layer and the staggered nanonetwork structure of WPU/BC layer, thus achieving a shielding effect of up to 72 dB. As proof-of-concept illustrations, it is noteworthy that the electromagnetic shielding efficacy displays a dynamic interaction with the strain sensing performance during the stretching process, which is primarily attributed to the moderating effect of the efficient attachment and parallel-aligned structure of p-MXene nanosheets. The research herein can offer new perspectives on the development of advanced bio-based multiple functions materials and dynamic perceptual interaction and smart wearables.

The misuse of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics leads to pollution of the water environment, necessitating the development of cost-effective and efficient degradation methods. This article presents a one-step hydrothermal method (200℃, 8 h) for the preparation of Fe-N-co-doped biochar/carbon quantum dots (Fe/N/BC/CQDs) as a photocatalytic material. The Fe/N/BC/CQDs was employed for the activation of H 2 O and O 2 , facilitating the degradation of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, with superoxide radicals, photo-generated holes, hydroxyl radicals, and singlet oxygen dominated the photodegradation process. Under 1 h dark and 8 h natural light conditions, the degradation efficiency of norfloxacin, sulfathiazole, sulfamethoxazole, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfadoxin, sulfamethazine (10 mg/L) by Fe/N/BC/CQDs ranged from 74.21 % to 89.23 %. The potential degradation pathways of sulfonamide and fluoroquinolone antibiotics were proposed based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of the intermediates. The Fe-N-doped biochar’s hierarchical pore structure enhances synergistic adsorption-catalysis effects, while the incorporated carbon quantum dots (CQDs) broaden solar spectrum utilization, effectively overcoming the high-intensity light dependency common to conventional photocatalysts. Efficient charge separation was achieved through the formation of a p-n heterojunction between Fe-N-co-doped biochar and CQDs. Additionally, the applicability of Fe/N/BC/CQDs in real water systems was confirmed, providing valuable insights for the construction of p-n heterojunction structures to degrade organic pollutants in water.
