Copper corrosion in chloride environments necessitates efficient and eco-friendly inhibitors. This study first proposes nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur co-doped carbon dots (N,P,S-CDs) as a novel inhibitor for copper in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution, filling a gap in the application of ternary-doped nanomaterials in representative neutral chloride media. The structure and performance of N,P,S-CDs were systematically compared with those of single (N-CDs) and dual-doped (N,S-CDs, N,P-CDs) carbon dots. A multi-scale investigation combining electrochemical tests, surface morphology analysis, and theoretical simulations was conducted to elucidate the corrosion inhibition mechanism. Results demonstrated that N,P,S-CDs achieved an optimal inhibition efficiency of 96.15% at 200 mg/L. The ternary doping strategy enhanced the chemical adsorption capability of CDs onto the metal surface through a synergistic effect, resulting in the formation of a compact and stable protective film that effectively blocked the attack of corrosive species. This work provides novel insights into the design of high-performance green corrosion inhibitors via multi-element synergistic doping.

Although epoxy resins (EP) have been widely used in many fields, performing halogen-free flame-retardant modification on them while improving their mechanical properties still holds significant research value. Herein, a halogen-free P/N/B-containing modifier (DVB) was synthesized via mild nucleophilic substitution, esterification, and Schiff base reactions using diphenylphosphinyl chloride, vanilline, phenylboronic acid, and 3-amino-1,2-propanediol as precursors. Its efficacy on bisphenol A epoxy resin/4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane thermosets was systematically evaluated, with comparisons to a phosphorus-only intermediate (DV). At 3 wt% DVB loading (0.18 wt% P content), the modified EP exhibited a limiting oxygen index of 28.5% and achieved UL-94 V-0 classification. Relative to pristine EP, EP/5% DVB demonstrated a reduction of 41.8% in peak heat release rate, 27.7% in total heat release, and 30.0% in total smoke production, outperforming EP/5% DV (17.8%, 15.8%, and 12.2% reductions, respectively). Furthermore, EP/DVB thermosets displayed maximal improvements of 37.0% in flexural strength and 59.4% in impact strength, coupled with a glass transition temperature retention rate of 98%. Collectively, DVB presents considerable application potential for synergistically enhancing the flame retardancy and mechanical performance of epoxy resins.

Activating lattice oxygen in oxygen evolution reactions (OER) serves as an effective strategy to overcome the inherent limitations of the traditional adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM). Molybdenum dioxide (MoO2), which has attracted attention due to its high electrical conductivity and other metallic properties, exhibits excessive adsorption of oxygen-containing intermediates at its elevated molybdenum d-band center. This leads to the formation of stable Mo–O bonds, thereby hindering the lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM). This study demonstrates that phosphorus doping serves as a more direct strategy for intrinsic electronic structure modulation. DFT calculations predict that phosphorus doping effectively lowers the d-band center of molybdenum and softens Mo–O bonds, thereby enabling lattice oxygen participation in the reaction mechanism. Consistent with the computational results, experimental kinetic studies (e.g., pH-dependent experiments) and chemical probe tests confirm that P-MoO2 follows the LOM pathway. The prepared P-MoO2 catalyst exhibits an overpotential of only 247 mV at 10 mA cm−2 current density while maintaining stability for up to 100 hours. Furthermore, through various characterization techniques (TEM, XPS, in situ Raman spectroscopy), it was observed that the catalyst underwent significant potential-induced surface reconstruction during the reaction process, forming an amorphous MoO(OH)x layer rich in Mo5+. This reconstructed layer is considered the true active phase, where Mo5+ has been confirmed as the dominant valence state in the OER process.

Rational designing a robust bifunctional electrocatalyst for urea-assisted water splitting (UWS) toward a carbon-neutral economy is imperative factor to address the energy-intensive challenges of sustainable hydrogen production at industrial current densities. In this study, a Mo/P co-doped Ni 3 S 2 one-dimensional nanoarray, decorated with two-dimensional nanosheets (MP-Ni 3 S 2 ), is synthesized using an in-situ growth method. The optimized MP-Ni 3 S 2 exhibits a significant advantage in the urea oxidation reaction (UOR), achieving much lower potentials (1.346 V at 100 mA cm −2 and 1.505 V at 1000 mA cm −2 in 1.0 M + 0.33 M urea) comparable to the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which requires 302 mV and 445 mV at the same current densities. The MP-Ni 3 S 2 ||MP-Ni 3 S 2 electrolyzer reduces the cell voltage from 2.146 V for overall water splitting (OWS) to 1.856 V for UWS at 500 mA cm −2 , surpassing most reported catalysts. Theocratical calculations demonstrate that Mo and P doping in Ni 3 S 2 , through the hybridization of Mo/Ni 3d and N/O 2p orbitals, effectively accelerates UOR kinetics by lowering the energy barrier in dehydrogenation and N-N coupling processes, while P doping optimizes the Gibbs free energy of hydrogen adsorption (ΔG H* ) to enhance HER activity, thereby synergistically improving overall performance. These findings offer a viable strategy for the development of energy-saving hydrogen production.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, C3 and C4 paraffins) from syngas have attracted much attention recently due to the growing demand of non-oil resource as well as its environmentally friendly features, but the catalytic reaction process controlled by thermodynamics and CO conversion rate is low with many side reactions. Here we report a catalyst with core shell structure for LPG synthesis from syngas. Zeolite as shell was synthesized by hydrothermal method firstly and then coated on Cu/ZnO core with Ludox (CZ@Z), the Cu/ZnO core was prepared by co-precipitation method. The unique core shell structure had efficient synergistic effect. The reaction equilibrium favored forward reaction because methanol as an intermediate was directly transformed to dimethyl ether. The zeolite type in the core shell structure catalyst had great effects on the activity and selectivity. The catalysts have been characterized by XRD, NH 3 -TPD and SEM. The activities were determined after in situ H 2 reduction. CZ@H-β catalyst showed a more effective catalytic activity compared with the traditional hybrid catalyst. The excellent catalytic performance was attributed to the combined contribution of both unique core shell structure and proper zeolite type. At these reaction conditions, temperature of 350 °C, pressure of 3.0 MPa and flow rate of 40 ml min −1 , CO conversion and hydrocarbons selectivity achieved 61.8% and 64.2%, respectively. LPG selectivity in hydrocarbons was 70.2%.

A novel system for enhancing the properties of P( N -isopropylacrylamide- co -poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate) (P(NIPAM- co -PEGDA)) temperature-sensitive hybrid hydrogels by incorporating acrylolsobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (MAPOSS) was developed in this study. Inorganic/organic hybrid P(NIPAM- co -PEGDA) hydrogels based on MAPOSS were synthesized via free radical polymerization. Environmental scanning electron microscopy images showed that hydrogels with different feed ratios exhibited significant changes in the porous structure and average pore size. The heterogeneous and irregular network was caused mainly by MAPOSS aggregation. The rigid cage-like nanostructure of MAPOSS had dual opposite effects on polymer thermal properties; this effect was proven through differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The mechanical behaviors of the swollen hydrogels investigated through compression test showed that MAPOSS incorporation enhanced the yield strength. Swelling, deswelling and reswelling behaviors of hydrogels with different feed ratios were systematically examined and compared. The increase in MAPOSS provided the hydrogels with improved deswelling rate because of its cage-like nanostructure and hydrophobicity.

A novel pH and thermo dual-responsive graft copolymer , starch- graft -poly( N , N -diethyl aminoethyl methacrylate- co -poly(ethylene gly co l) methyl ether methacrylate) [starch-g-P(DEAEMA-co-PEGMA)], was successfully synthesized through single-electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET-LRP). The structure and molecular weight of the grafted chains were confirmed by 1 H NMR. These graft copolymers can self-assemble into micelles with starch backbone and PDEAEMA as the core and PPEGMA as the corona in water at pH 7.4. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the graft copolymers varied between 0.0313 and 0.1364 mg/mL, decreasing with an increase in the molecular weight of the grafted chains and the ratio of PDEAEMA and PPEGMA segments. The pH and thermo dual-responsive behaviors of starch-g-P(DEAEMA-co-PEGMA) micelles were investigated by DLS and TEM . As the pH decreasd from 8.0 to 5.5, the micelle sizes continued to increase due to the protonation of the PDEAEMA segments, and as the pH decreased to below 5.5, the micelles began to disassemble, which was verified by TEM observations. Upon heating, the size of the micelles decreased because of the shrinkage of the PDEAEMA segments. The pH and thermo dual-responsive behaviors of the starch-g-P(DEAEMA-co-PEGMA) micelles are reversible. Doxorubicin (DOX), a hydrophobic drug, was encapsulated in the micelles, and in vitro release from the drug-loaded micelles displayed good pH-responsive behavior.

An efficient green process was developed for production of p -aminophenol (PAP) from hydrogenation of nitrobenzene (NB) over a traditional Pt/Al 2 O 3 catalyst in a reaction medium of supercritical CO 2 (scCO 2 ) and H 2 O without any additional acid catalyst involved. The combination of scCO 2 and H 2 O was confirmed to be effective for the production of PAP. The acidity, aroused by the in situ formed carbonic acid, increased with CO 2 pressure, which acted as acid catalysis during the reaction, and it can easily self-neutralize by depressurization of CO 2 , resulting in a green and a intensive process for it removed the final neutralization and salts disposal of the traditional liquid acids. Under the optimal reaction conditions, a high yield to PAP (68.9%) was achieved at the high conversion of NB (98.5%). Moreover, the results of in situ diffuse reflectance FTIR spectra revealed that CO was generated by the reverse water-gas shift reaction (CO 2 + H 2 → CO + H 2 O), it can adsorbed on the surface of Pt/Al 2 O 3 to suppress the undesired deep hydrogenation of N -phenylhydroxylamine (PHA) to aniline (AN), which also contributed to the obtained high selectivity of PAP. Therefore, the present green and efficient catalysis process will arouse the interest of researchers in the fields of the green and sustainable organic synthesis.

In order to further the design and use of flame retardants with a lower environmental impact, a large number of available, eco-friendly, bio-based and biocompatible flame retardants have begun to be used. This study explores the synthesis of a novel phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant (PMO) using bio-sourced phytic acid (PA) and enteromorpha prolifera (EP), along with mineral-based modified sepiolite (OSEP) and melamine (MEL), to investigate its flame retardant and smoke suppression effects on ethylene-propylene-diene monomer rubber (EPDM). Experimental results demonstrate that compared to pure EPDM, EPDM with 50 phr PMO achieves a V-0 rating in UL-94 tests, with an increased Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) to 31.1 %, Time to Ignition (TTI) extended from 6 s to 29 s, Peak Heat Release Rate (PHRR) reduced by 55.8 %, Total Heat Release (THR) decreased by 69.4 %, particularly Total Smoke Production (TSP) reduced by over 73 %, significantly enhancing the flame retardant performance of the rubber composite material. After loading with modified seafoam, the highly efficient PMO flame retardant was successfully prepared, which has a broad application prospect in general rubber materials.

ZIF-derived N,P,S-HCNFs provide a porous electroactive interface for TBHQ sensing. • Single- and dual-doped controls with DFT support cooperative heteroatom regulation. • Two linear ranges of 0.9–12 and 12–127 μM were achieved with a 0.075 μM LOD. • Reliable TBHQ quantification was demonstrated in spiked edible-oil samples. • Extra Trees enables validated auxiliary calibration in complex oil matrices. Tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) is a widely used synthetic phenolic antioxidant, and its excessive use in edible oils raises food-safety concerns. Herein, N, P, and S tri-doped hollow carbon nanofibers (N,P,S-HCNF) with interconnected porous channels were fabricated via an electrospinning–pyrolysis strategy. The hollow architecture and heteroatom-induced defects provide abundant electroactive sites and facilitate electron/mass transfer, enabling sensitive electrochemical oxidation of TBHQ. The N,P,S-HCNF/CP sensor exhibited two linear response ranges of 0.9–12 μM and 12–127 μM, with a detection limit of 0.075 μM. Acceptable selectivity, reproducibility, and storage stability were obtained. Single- and dual-doped controls combined with DFT calculations provided mechanistic insight into the enhanced TBHQ adsorption and interfacial electron transfer of N,P,S-HCNF, including preferential interactions involving the phenolic hydroxyl groups. An externally validated Extra Trees calibration model was further employed as an auxiliary strategy to reduce matrix-related prediction bias, integrating hollow carbon nanofiber engineering, multielement heteroatom regulation, mechanistic analysis, and data-driven quantification for TBHQ electrochemical determination in edible oils. A defect-rich N,P,S-doped hollow carbon nanofiber interface enabled sensitive electrochemical oxidation of TBHQ, while DFT supported favorable adsorption and interfacial charge redistribution and machine learning provided auxiliary calibration for improved quantification in edible-oil matrices.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are promising next-generation energy-storage systems because of their high theoretical energy density. However, their practical application is severely hindered by sluggish sulfur redox kinetics and the shuttle effect of soluble lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). Herein, a MoS 2 @NPCNFs interlayer is designed to immobilize LiPSs and accelerate bidirectional sulfur conversion. The porous and conductive carbon nanofiber framework provides rapid electron/ion transport pathways and facilitates electrolyte penetration, while the MoS 2 component offers abundant catalytic sites for polysulfide adsorption and conversion. As revealed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the nitrogen-regulated electronic environment modulates the Δd-p value associated with MoS 2 . This optimized d-p orbital interaction strengthens the coupling between MoS 2 and lithium polysulfides, thereby promoting their chemical adsorption and catalytic conversion. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows obvious binding-energy shifts after Li 2 S 6 adsorption, indicating strong interfacial electronic interactions. Density functional theory calculations further demonstrate that this electronic-structure regulation enhances the LiPSs chemisorption, optimizes the Gibbs free-energy evolution of sulfur redox reactions, and lowers the energy barriers for Li 2 S decomposition and Li + diffusion. Consequently, the MoS 2 @NPCNFs interlayer enables efficient bidirectional catalysis of polysulfide reduction, effectively suppressing the shuttle effect and improving reaction kinetics. The assembled Li-S battery delivers high initial discharge capacities of 1262.9 mAh·g −1 at 0.2C and 916.0 mAh·g −1 at 1C, and maintains excellent cycling stability over 1000 cycles at 1C with a low capacity decay rate of 0.043% per cycle. This work provides an electronic-structure-regulation strategy for designing advanced interlayers toward high-performance Li-S batteries.

Lightweight, high-temperature resistant copolymerized polyimide foams (CPIFs) were fabricated via a “stepwise heating-holding” thermal foaming process using 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (s-BPDA) and 2,3,3′,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (α-BPDA) as codianhydrides and p-phenylenediamine (PDA) as the diamine. Asymmetric α-BPDA rigidifies molecular chains to endow superior thermal resistance. The CPIFs possess a three-dimensional open-cell structure (open-cell content >99%), ultralow densities (<10 kg·m–3), excellent heat resistance (Tg ranging from 373.8 to 405.6 °C), and high thermal stability (T5% > 588 °C), substantially outperforming previously reported counterparts. Benefiting from the unique cellular architecture, the CPIFs exhibit thermal conductivities below 0.06 W·m–1·K–1 at room temperature and approximately 0.08 W·m–1·K–1 at 200 °C, and excellent sound absorption (NRC ≥ 0.4), along with outstanding flame retardancy (LOI > 44%, UL-94 V-0 rating). Moreover, the CPIFs remain flexible and thermal insulating even in liquid nitrogen. This work provides a robust strategy for high-performance polyimide foams integrating heat resistance, flexibility, thermal insulation, and acoustic absorption, promising for aerospace and extreme-environment applications.
