The decarbonylation of fatty acids presents a promising method for synthesizing sustainable long-chain olefins. However, the development of catalysts that combine satisfactory efficiency and selectivity for fatty acid decarbonylation still encounters challenges. In this study, we developed an N-doped carbon-supported PtCo bimetallic catalyst for fatty acid decarbonylation. Employing stearic acid as a substrate, we achieved a combined heptadecene selectivity of 64.4% and a total hydrocarbon selectivity of 95.7% alongside a stearic acid conversion rate of 83.1%. The superior performance of the PtCo3Nx@NC catalyst can be attributed to the formation and influence of the Pt–CoNx interface, characterized by unique electronic and geometric properties that underlie bimetallic synergy. This research introduces new avenues for the decarbonylation of fatty acids, offering an environmentally friendly approach to producing long-chain olefins from biomass.

Aiming at the problem that the ignition ability of semiconductor bridge (SCB) is limited by the quality of bridge area, an energetic semiconductor bridge (ESCB) was prepared by 3D direct writing printing method. Using Al/CuO as the main component of the energetic ink and nitrocellulost (NC) as the binder, an energetic ignition bridge was successfully prepared by combining the energetic ink on the SCB surface. The electric detonation and ignition experiments of SCB and ESCB were carried out by means of capacitive discharge, and the gap ignition experiments proved that the ignition ability of SCB was successfully enhanced by energetic ink. In the electrical explosion experiment, under the excitation of 30 V capacitor discharge, the melting and vaporization time of ESCB bridge zone is longer than that of SCB, because the energetic film absorbs the heat generated by the bridge zone. Due to the bonding effect of NC, Al and CuO are more closely combined and the reaction is more complete, and the heat release of energetic ink is 1232 J/g. At 30 V/100 µF, the ESCB can ignite the B/KNO 3 charge at an 10 mm gap when the ink charge is 3 mg. The results demonstrate the strong ignition ability of ESCB, which has a good application prospect in the use of ignition and fire transmission sequences.

Micro-nano composite energetic materials have attracted extensive attention from researchers due to their excellent properties. Electrostatic spray drying, as an emerging composite material preparation technology, has an important impact on the assembly and energy release regulation of energetic materials. In this paper, NC with excellent mechanical properties was selected as the energetic binder. The uniform assembly of TKX-50 and Al was achieved by electrostatic spraying technology, and Al@TKX-50@NC micro-nano composite energetic material microspheres were prepared. The structure and composition of the composite were characterized, and its thermal decomposition kinetics and thermodynamics were calculated and analyzed. At the same time, its ignition and combustion performance were tested. It is found that the samples prepared by electrostatic spray are regular spherical, and the particle size is about 1–6 μm. Compared with the physical mixture samples, the Al@TKX-50@NC composite microspheres not only have a more complete oxidation reaction but also have better ignition and combustion performance. The results show that the electrostatic spray method is very effective in improving the energy release of composite energetic materials.

Recently, how to improve the photocatalytic uranium removal performance of Graphite-phase carbon nitride (GCN) has always been a hot research topic. In this paper, a new strategy based on p-n junction and D-A structure is proposed to improve the photocatalytic performance. And as a result, a novel cyano modified photocatalytic material NC-GCN/Ag 2 O was designed and prepared for the reduction of U(VI). Interestingly, the material shows better adsorption performance for U(VI) in the dark treatment stage, and its removal of U(VI) is close to 70 % under the initial U(VI) concentration of 20 ppm and the solid–liquid ratio of 0.2 g/L. And the adsorption is in accordance with the Langmuir model and Pseudo second order model. After 30 min of illumination, the removal rate of U(VI) can reach 93.2 %, significantly higher than that of GCN (13.6 %) and NC-GCN 10 (37.7 %). It’s worth mentioning that photocatalytic reduction dominated the adsorption-reduction process for U(VI) removal after light exposure. In addition, after four cycles, the removal of U(VI) from the composite material decreased by only 5 % with no change in the crystal structure, i.e., it has good reusability and stability. Meanwhile, there was no significant interference with other ions except for Cu 2+ and V 5+ , which had a weak interference. Finally, a new mechanism for U(Ⅵ) reduction was proposed.

The agglomeration phenomenon of metals in transition metal-based carbon catalysts has been one of the major reasons hindering their replacement of commercial Pt/C. Its self-aggregation phenomenon greatly limits the number of active sites and reactivity, which affects the catalytic performance. To overcome this issue, this work prepared a high N-doped carbon structure catalyst coated with high-dispersion FeCo/Fe 3 C nanoparticles. This was achieved by utilizing the advantages of the Prussian blue analogs (PBA) metal framework structure to suppress the self-aggregation of metals, thereby achieving high dispersion. Additionally, the introduction of melamine compensated for the nitrogen loss caused by the carbonization of PBA, thus increasing the nitrogen doping content. The experimental results show that when the calcination temperature is 850 °C and the mass ratio of melamine to FeCo PBA is 5, the half-wave potential (E 1/2 ) of the FeCo@NC catalyst prepared can reach 0.857 V, and the current intensity of FeCo@NC catalyst can maintain 97.12 % during 40,000 s stability test, which is much higher than that of commercial Pt/C. Moreover, the prepared FeCoNC@-850-5 and commercial Pt/C catalysts were used as cathode catalysts for Zn-air batteries (ZAB), and FeCoNC@-850-5 had higher open-circuit voltage (OCV), power density, and specific capacity. These findings demonstrate that the catalyst possesses excellent catalytic activity and promising application prospects, providing a new perspective for the design of efficient oxygen reduction catalysts based on the coupling of bimetallic alloys and N-doped carbon materials.

Triple-base gun propellants composed of nitrocellulose (NC), triethylene glycol dinitrate (TEGDN) and cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) with carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were studied to explore the effects of CNFs on the thermal and mechanical properties. The results indicated that CNFs with less than 0.50 wt % were evenly and randomly dispersed in the propellant, otherwise there existed obvious aggregation. Temperatures of initial decomposition and exothermic peak reduced with the increase of NCFs from 0.00 to 3.00 wt %. Decomposition enthalpy of the composites with 0.50 wt % NCFs was 1214.6 J g −1 , increased by ∼131.4 J g −1 compared to that of NC-TEGDN-RDX propellants. Moreover, the mechanical properties were effectively tailored by varying the amount of CNFs added to the composition. Decomposition enthalpy of the propellant with 0.25 wt % CNFs were hardly compromised for achieving enhancement in the compressive and impact properties, while the tensile strengths decreased slightly compared to that of the propellants.

Burgeoning oxidation technology based on peracetic acid (PAA) has been widely used to treat organic pollutants, and the development of efficient catalytic materials is a vital theme. In this study, a novel catalyst FeCo@NC was designed to degrade sulfamethoxazole (SMX), a typical sulfonamide antibiotic, which not only owned excellent activation performance of PAA, but also presented superior recycling performance and stability. Ten μM of SMX were nearly completely removed within 90 min under the conditions of 25 °C, pH at 7.0, 0.5 g/L catalyst, and 100 μM of initial PAA. FeCo@NC/PAA technique possessed a satisfactory degradation performance on SMX in a wide pH range, and even in the presence of a variety of anions and humic acids. The 90-min degradation rate of SMX in FeCo@NC/PAA system remained above 70 % after 4 cycles. Metal ion leaching data together with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results confirmed the reusability and stability of this material. Superoxide and organic radicals eliminated SMX via the bond cleavage of S–C or S–N, hydroxylation and coupling reaction to yield 11 intermediates. The S–N bond cleavage was an eco-friendly route. This study provides a reference for the design of effective catalysts and their application in the treatment of refractory organic pollutants.

The design and development of high-quality electromagnetic waves (EMW) absorbing materials play a vital role in combating the escalating negative effects of microwave radiation and interference. Herein, MoS 2 @Co/NC@CF fibrous membranes are successfully fabricated by electrospinning technology and carbonization, and a molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) layer is synthesized on the surface of these fibers via hydrothermal method. The seed-assisted growth method not only effectively avoids the accumulation and improves the loading of ZIF-67 particles, so as to ensure that the magnetic components in the fibers are evenly distributed in a wider range, rather than only intermittently present in some sites. Meanwhile, the introduction of semiconductor MoS 2 as the shell further optimizes the impedance matching and improves the EMW absorption performance of the carbon fibrous membranes: the minimum reflection loss (RL min ) is −67.56 dB, and the maximum effective absorption bandwidth (EAB max ) is further expanded to 6.56 GHz (2.1 mm, 11.44–18 GHz). This work provides a feasible method for developing high-efficient EMW-absorbing materials.

The use of electrochemical tactics to reduce nitrate to the valorized product ammonia has become the hot topic. Recently, the synergistic effect of metal/metal oxide is provided to significantly enhance the electrocatalytic performance of nitrate reduction as opposed to monometallic catalyst. In this work, a reticulated fibre structure with Cu/CoO nanoparticles (Cu x Co y O-NC) was prepared for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction (NO 3 - RR) to ammonia. The optimized catalyst (Cu 1 Co 1 O-NC) displayed brilliant performance for NO 3 - RR with high Faraday efficiency (FE) of 97.9 %, the excellent NH 3 yield rate of 0.45 mmol h −1 cm −2 , prominent NH 3 selectivity of 98.4 % and efficient NO 3 – conversion of 99.2 % at −0.79 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Besides, Cu 1 Co 1 O-NC also exhibits the potential for uranium recovery from simulated wastewater containing nitrate and uranyl ions with a total yield of 508 mg ammonium diuranate after i-t measurement for 6 times. This work not only provides an efficient catalyst for reduction nitrate but also proposes the sustainable method for uranium containing sewage realizing nitrogen cycle.

In this paper, Pt-Fe alloy with low-content of Pt (2 %) was distributed uniformly over the porous Fe/NC substrate treated by nitric acid etching, with small amount of metallic Fe and Pt nanoparticles. The optimized Pt-Fe alloy on Fe/NC substrate showed higher ORR performance with the E 1/2 of around 0.83 V vs. RHE as well as faster catalytic kinetics. In addition, the catalytic activity has not been decayed through an accelerated durability test after 5000 cycles CVs, indicating better catalytic stability for the alloying catalyst. The introduction of Pt elements into Fe/NC substrate increased the numbers and species of ORR active sites, invoking higher ORR activity comparing with isolated Fe/NC catalyst. The acid etching provided more defects for the substrate to anchor the active sites stably. Moreover, the synergistic effect originated from the alloying of Pt and Fe modulated the electronic structure of Pt, increasing the ORR activity with low yield of H 2 O 2 . This decreasing H 2 O 2 yield can weaken the Fenton reaction to prevent the dissolution of Fe in the acid solution, which can improve the stability of the catalysts to meet the commercial needs for PEMFC.

Most conventional nanozymes have poor specificity and low activity, and designing high-performance nanozymes remains a challenge. In contrast, single-atom nanozymes have high atom utilization and high reactivity. Here, we prepared Cu single-atom nanozymes (Cu-NC) with excellent peroxidase-like activity by high-temperature pyrolysis using Cu as a transition metal source. The introduction of Cu formed the Cu-N x active site, which accelerated charge transfer between the reactants and the active site and was the key for improving the activity. With Cu-NC as a catalyst, H 2 O 2 rapidly oxidized 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to oxTMB, and the solution turned blue with strong absorption at 652 nm. Because d -penicillamine (D-PA) can reduce oxTMB or react with reactive oxygen species radicals to inhibit the color reaction, we built a colorimetric sensing platform around Cu-NC for the determination of D-PA and successfully used it for the determination of D-PA in urine samples. This work provides new ideas for the design of high-performance nanozymes and the detection of D-PA in real environments.

It is of great practical significance to explore and prepare cheap, high-performance, and stable catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), but it is still in progress at present. Herein, a straightforward evaporation–pyrolysis strategy is designed for the preparation of 3D porous electrocatalysts (denoted as \(\textrm{Fe}-\textrm{Co}-\textrm{NC}\) , which represented carbonization products at °C) made of carbon nanoparticles combined with metallic Fe-Co-doped N-enriched bridged carbon nanotube by carbonization of a pristine ZIF8 as highly efficient and durable ORR electrocatalysts. The obtained Fe–Co–NC structure possesses 3D open porous texture, abundant active sites, desired nitrogen bonding type, and high specific surface area, providing them with excellent ORR activity. The optimal performing \(\textrm{Fe}-\textrm{Co}-\textrm{NC}\) catalyst presents an outstanding ORR performance in terms of a high onset potential ( \(\textrm{E}_{\text{ onset } }\) ) of 0.96 V (vs. RHE) and half-wave potential ( \(\textrm{E}_{1 / 2}\) ) of 0.86 V (vs. RHE), respectively, possible to rival those of the commercially available \(\textrm{Pt} / \textrm{C}\) in an alkaline electrolyte solution. Besides, the \(\textrm{Fe}-\textrm{Co}-\textrm{NC}\) catalyst manifests better stability than those of commercially available \(\textrm{Pt} / \textrm{C}\) , which is of importance for the optimization and characterization of novel electrocatalysts originated from non-precious metals.
