Felicitously incorporating noble metals with some transition metals to fabricate composite nanoagents with diverse shape and microarchitecture is a more promising solution for obtaining highly effective and cost-cutting catalyst. Herein, we report a facile and flexible synthesizing tactics, or Galvani substitution modulated self-assembly protocol, to fabricate Cu nanowire (core)-Pt nanoparticle (shell) unique microarchitecture (Cu-NWs@Pt) with porously hiberarchy. The comprehensive characterizations reveal that as-fabricated bimetallic nanowires with average aspect ratio of ca. 80 and apparent diameter of ca 60 nm, hold the razor-thin Cu–Pt alloy sublayer in the metallic contact interface, with the prebuilt Cu nanowires cladded by orderly oriented Pt nanograins to form loose, porous and stratiform structure. The thickness and microarchitecture of the Pt shell could be duly regulated by adjusting dosage of the metal precursors and substituting time. The verified formation of electronic synergic effect in the bimetallic nanoagents avails the adsorption of H to form metal-H species, leading to enhance the catalytic activity . Their catalytic ability overall increases with rising of Pt/Cu molar ratios , of which the Cu 0.6 Pt 0.4 even exceeds Pt-NPs, with a turnover frequency of 77.26·min −1 and apparent activation energy of 30.25 kJ·mol −1 , and maintaining 89% of the incipient catalytic ability after 5 recycling runs.

Cu-Y binary oxysulfide was synthesized for the first time. A series of batch experiments were conducted to determine the optimum conditions for preparing the adsorbent and further investigate the effects of the initial pH and coexisting anions on the removal of arsenic. The results indicate that the adsorbent displays an extremely excellent performance in removing both As(III) and As(V). The maximal adsorption capacities at the initial pH 6.0 are 263.16 and 270.27 mg/g for As(III) and As(V), respectively. The adsorbent remains relatively stable even at the initial pH 3 and at this pH it also exhibits a very high removal efficiency for As(V). Based on Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) analyses and other results obtained in our experiments, a possible mechanism for the removal of arsenic is proposed. The dissolved O 2 is activated to O 2 − via a single-electron transfer reaction from Cu(I) on the adsorbent, which oxidizes As(III) to As(V). Then, arsenate anions are adsorbed onto the surface of the adsorbent and the adsorbed arsenate anions further react with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the adsorbent via an ion exchange or precipitate with Y(III) on the surface of the adsorbent .

The effective electrochemical recovery of metal for bimetallic composite ionic liquid (IL) is related to the ion species and even the reaction mechanism under different Cu(I) contents. Thus, bimetallic composite ILs (Et3NHCl–1.54AlCl3–xCuCl, x = 0–0.23) were synthesized to investigate the Cu(I) speciation, voltammetric behavior and electrodeposition mechanism under different Cu(I) contents. For the cyclic voltammogram, three cathodic peaks of Et3NHCl–1.54AlCl3–0.010CuCl were related to the reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I), Cu(I) to Cu(0), and Al(III) to Al(0), respectively. Meanwhile, for Et3NHCl–1.54AlCl3–0.23CuCl, the cathodic and anodic peaks were related to the redox reaction of copper. The whole offline detection of bimetallic composite ILs showed that the anodic reaction under low content of Cu(I) (≤ 0.60 wt%) was dominated by the generation of chlorine gas, while the cathodic reaction was related to the potential. However, when the Cu(I) content was higher than 2.23 wt%, only the disproportionation reaction of Cu(I) occurred and CuCl2 was obtained on the anode. Long-term electrodeposition showed that the effective recovery of copper from industrial bimetallic composite IL was realized. This study lays a good foundation for the clear understanding and comprehensive implementation of the resource utilization.

Printed circuit boards (PCB) are easily corroded under moist environment due to formation of dendrites and short circuit. It would be a promising approach to exploit intentionally formed dendrite covered by functional coating for corrosion inhibition to elongate the lifespan of PCB. In this work, a facile electrodeposition method has been applied to grow dendritic tin onto Cu as a substrate for PCB. Bioinspired formation of superhydrophobic surface (SHS) and liquid-infused surface (LIS) are adopted to minimize access of moisture to underneath Cu metal. In this regard, dimethylsilicone oil and zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) nanoparticles are infused into dendritic matrix to form a solid–liquid ZIF-LIS coating. Morphology, composition and wettability are characterized by different sophisticated techniques. Beyond significant improvement in corrosion resistance, ZIF-LIS has demonstrated self-healing properties, improved mechanical stability and anti-icing behavior. Current finding provides a new approach to fabricate coating for PCB having extended stability against corrosive degradation.

Copper indium gallium selenide Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS) solar cells fabricated by vacuum thermal evaporation, magnetron sputtering, or organic solvent solution-process either lead to high manufacturing cost and film nonuniformity or cause explosion, toxication and pollution. To address these issues, herein, water as a solvent to prepare the CIGS precursor solution is used and 7.04% efficient CIGS solar cells without MgF 2 antireflection layer is obtained. Furthermore, for the first time, K doping on CIGS films via adding “K + ” into the aqueous precursor solution is conducted. K–In–Se species is formed in the process of selenization and acts as a Se reservoir during CIGS grain growth, resulting in improved quality of the CIGS film with much larger grains. K doping can also inhibit the loss of Ga element. The high-bandgap K–In–Se phase and higher Ga content combine to result in the increase in the CIGS bandgap. As a result, the K-doped CIGS solar cell achieves a 33.1% enhancement in efficiency to 9.37%, with the significant increase in the open-circuit voltage from 520.5 to 597.1 mV and fill factor from 50.77 to 55.36%. These results provide an important preliminary foundation for the development of aqueous precursor solution-based CIGS solar cells.

Immiscible bimetal systems, of which tungsten–copper (W–Cu) is a typical representative, have crucial applications in fields requiring both mechanical and physical properties. Nevertheless, it is a major challenge to determine how to give full play to the advantages of the two phases of the bimetal and achieve outstanding comprehensive properties. In this study, an ultrafine-grained W–Cu bimetal with spatially connected Cu and specific W islands was fabricated through a designed powder-mixing process and subsequent rapid low-temperature sintering. The prepared bimetal concurrently has a high yield strength, large plastic strain, and high electrical conductivity. The stress distribution and strain response of individual phases in different types of W–Cu bimetals under loading were quantified by means of a simulation. The high yield strength of the reported bimetal results from the microstructure refinement and high contiguity of the grains in the W islands, which enhance the contribution of W to the total plastic deformation of the bimetal. The high electrical conductivity is attributed to the increased mean free path of the Cu and the reduced proportion of phase boundaries due to the specific phase combination of W islands and Cu. This work provides new insight into modulating phase configuration in immiscible metallic composites to achieve high-level multi-objective properties.

Here, we report a controllable strategy for fabricating monodispersed microspheres composed of poly(butyl methacrylate) (BMA) and silane-modified Cu/Ni-embedded metal-organic framework (MOF)-TiO₂ composites (denoted as BMA@Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO₂ microsphere) for efficient photocatalytic degradation. Monodispersed oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion templates are prepared by a microfluidic device, which contain silane-modified Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 in oil phase. Utilizing benzildimethyl ketal (BDK) as a photoinitiator, porous microspheres can be obtained through a straightforward photopolymerization process initiated by ultraviolet light. When the concentration of the surfactant polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR 90) is 14% (w/v) and the crosslinker trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) is 12% (w/v), the BMA@Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 microspheres have good monodispersity, and the average diameter is 180.7 μm and coefficient of variation (CV) is 3.64%. When silane-modified Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 loading is 0.4% (w/v), the removal rate to methylene blue (MB) is up to 96.2% in 20 min, which is higher than that of powdered (86.6%). Under the optimal conditions, the removal rate of methylene blue reached 99.3% within 50 minutes. Moreover, after 5 cycles of testing, the degradation efficiency remained above 97.94%,, which strongly demonstrated the reusability of BMA@Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 microspheres. The photocatalytic mechanism involves the generation of electron-hole pairs in Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 under light irradiation, which react with O2 to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to degrad MB. The characterization results of XPS, and FTIR show that the silane-modified Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 is successfully loaded into the microspheres. BMA@Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 microspheres have a specific surface area of 5.962 m2/g and a specific volume of 2.491 cm3/g, providing sufficient diffusion channels and active sites for MB dyes. Therefore, BMA@Cu/Ni@MOF-TiO2 microspheres have excellent recyclability, high stability and attractive photocatalytic degradation efficiency, and show potential application prospects in the future treatment of dye wastewater.

Cu-based catalysts are crucial for the dehydrogenation of ethanol (EtOH) to acetaldehyde (AcH); however, their performance decreases at higher temperatures due to the low Tammann temperature of Cu species. In this study, we synthesized silica-supported Cu catalysts using microwave-assisted wet-kneading. Characterization revealed a typical core–shell structure (Cu@SiO 2 -WK), which demonstrated high activity, excellent selectivity, and superior stability for ethanol dehydrogenation. The Cu@SiO 2 -WK achieved 96.2 % EtOH conversion with 99.9 % selectivity to AcH at 260 °C. After 160 h of reaction, it maintained an EtOH conversion of 90.5 % and AcH selectivity of ∼99.9 %. Following simple calcination, the catalyst’s activity was fully regenerated to 96.1 %. Model catalysts and in situ FT-IR spectra indicate that the core–shell structure significantly enhances the catalyst’s performance in the dehydrogenation of EtOH to AcH.

Introducing novel bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (Cu/Zr-MOF) into wood cellulose scaffolds via an in situ growth strategy represents an effective approach to enhance the fire retardancy of wooden products. This work evaluates the effects of Cu/Zr-MOF loading content embedded in wood composite on the MOF morphology and flame retardancy of natural wood (NW). We discovered that MOF loading has a significant impact on the morphology of Cu/Zr-MOF. Specifically, with an increase in the amount of MOF precursors, the morphological transformation is from spherical to regular octahedra. Furthermore, the incorporation of high MOF loading remarkably enhanced the thermal stability at the early stage and exhibited significantly improved residual content. With 24 mass% loading of Cu/Zr bimetallic MOF, the highly flame-retardant wood composite (Cu-U-W-3) was obtained. Compared to pure NW, the peak heat release rate (pHRR) and total heat release (THR) were reduced to 25.25 W g −1 and 5.0 kJ g −1 , respectively. The limiting oxygen index (LOI) of the treated sample reached 24.81%, showing outstanding self-extinguishing ability. According to the char residue analysis, it was found that Cu-Zr bimetallic MOF anchored on the cell wall exhibited catalytic carbon-forming effect, thereby facilitating the generation of high-quality residual char. The enhanced fire safety of natural wood can be attributed to the oxygen barrier and the reduced heat transfer characteristics of the dense carbon layer. This work presents a novel methodology for the fabrication of bimetallic MOF hybrid flame retardants, with the objective of enhancing the flame retardancy of wooden products.

In this study, pyrite was used as the research object, and the behavior and mechanism of a copper-ion-enhanced organic depressant in depressing pyrite flotation were studied. Microflotation experiments showed that, after the addition of CuSO4 and N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamate (N,N-DDS), the floating collection efficiency of pyrite declined from 82.37 to 21.03% at pH 8.5. Infrared spectroscopy studies indicated that the addition of CuSO4 caused a significant enhancement in the characteristic N,N-DDS peaks on the pyrite surface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that, following the addition of CuSO4 and N,N-DDS, the relative atomic concentration of N 1s considerably enhanced on the surface of pyrite, with N 1s derived from N,N-DDS. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry showed that, before and after the addition of CuSO4, the normalized peak values of CSN– on the pyrite superficial layer were 0.0116 and 0.0032, respectively. All of the above-mentioned results indicate that the Cu ion promotes the adsorption of N,N-DDS on pyrite and facilitates the formation of complex ((CH3)2NCSS)2Cu. The N and S atoms in −NCS and metal ions formed chemical bonds, which were the primary mechanism of the interaction between N,N-DDS and pyrite. This process reduces the floatability of pyrite and achieves the selective depression of pyrite.

Cu + species was believed to play the crucial role in the catalytic transformation, and synergistic effect between Cu and CoFe species was observed in the reaction. Various tertiary anilines could be tolerated by the present catalytic system. A series of control experiments were conducted to determine the reaction intermediates. A distinctive reaction mechanism has been described for the annulation reaction based on these results and kinetic isotopic effects experiments.

In this study, two types of Cu-MOFs (Cu-TCPP and CuO-TCPP) with a two-dimensional layered porous structure were prepared via in situ polymerization using Cu2+, CuO, and TCPP as raw materials. Both Cu-MOFs exhibited peroxidase-like activity, capable of catalyzing the oxidation of TMB by H2O2to form oxTMB, resulting in an absorption peak at 652 nm and a color change from colorless to blue. Subsequently, the addition of AA can reduce oxTMB back to TMB, causing the color of the system to lighten or become colorless. Based on this principle, a simple and rapid colorimetric method for AA detection was established and successfully applied to the detection of TAC in fruits and vegetables. The results showed that Cu-TCPP and CuO-TCPP had a large linear range of ascorbic acid detection of 0.01–100 mM (Cu-TCPP) and 0.05–100 mM (CuO-TCPP). This study not only provides a novel method for preparing nanozymes with peroxidase-like activity, but also offers a simple approach for analyzing the TAC of food.
