Ionic covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold great promise in regulating the structure of polyamide nanofiltration membranes for divalent ions removal. In this work, we demonstrate cationic COF (cCOF) nanosheets engineered polyamide membrane with excellent divalent cations rejection. cCOF nanosheets as versatile regulator and an interlayer accelerate the self-sealing and self-termination of interfacial polymerization between polyethyleneimine and trimesoyl chloride, endowing membranes with dense network and small thickness. Meanwhile, the quaternary ammonium groups on cCOF nanosheets increase positive charges on membranes. Through synergistic intensification of electrostatic repulsion and size sieving, the resulting cCOF-PA membranes display excellent rejection for divalent cations (MgCl 2 , 99.3%), superior to most reported polyethyleneimine-based polyamide membranes. This work highlights the significance of ionic COF materials in developing positively charged membranes for efficient ionic and molecular separations.

Multifunctional capability and low coupling electronic skin (e-skin) is of great significance in advanced robot systems interacting with the human body or the external environment directly. Herein, a multifunctional e-skin system via vertical integrated different sensing materials and structures is presented. The multifunctional e-skin has capacity sensing the proximity, pressure, temperature, and relative humidity simultaneously, with scope of 100–0 mm, 0–30 N, 20–120 °C and 20–70%, respectively. The sensitivity of the four kinds of sensors can be achieved to 0.72 mm −1 , 16.34 N −1 , 0.0032 °C −1 , and 15.2 pF/%RH, respectively. The cross-coupling errors are less than 1.96%, 1.08%, 2.65%, and 1.64%, respectively, after temperature compensation. To be state-of-the-art, a commercial robot is accurately controlled via the multifunctional e-skin system in the complicated environment. The following and safety controlling exhibit both accuracy and high dynamic features. To improve the sensing performance to the insulating objects, machine learning is employed to classify the conductivity during the object approaching, leading to set the threshold in dynamic. The accuracy for isolating the insulator increases from 18% to 88%. Looking forward, the multifunctional e-skin system has broader applications in human–machine collaboration and industrial safety production technology.

Based on the four-component separation technology of asphalt, the influence mechanism of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene microsheets (GNPs) and graphene oxide (GO) in SBS-modified asphalt four-component was systematically analyzed by combining macroscopic properties and microscopic characteristics, as well as exploring the morphological distribution of SBS in asphalt four-component. According to the results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy, the modification mechanism of asphalt by three types of carbon nanomaterials follows two pathways: chemical reaction and physical blending. The addition of CNTs, GNPs, and GO results in the destruction of long carbon chains of the saturated fraction in SBS-modified asphalt, and promotes the aggregation of SBS in the asphaltene, as well as its dense distribution and crosslinking in the oil fractions. The results of the fluorescence microscopy test and phase separation test showed that the dispersing effect of the three carbon nanomaterials could alleviate the aggregation phenomenon of SBS, improve the mutual integration between SBS and matrix asphalt, and promote the storage stability of SBS-modified asphalt. Therefore, based on the excellent mechanical properties of the three carbon nanomaterials and their promotion of filling and crosslinking of SBS in asphaltene, they have made significant contributions to the mechanical properties of carbon nanomaterials-composite SBS modified asphalt. This can also be demonstrated by DSR testing and conventional physical property testing. This study hopes to provide a viable analytical route for the use of nanomaterials in modulating the four-component structure and improving the properties of asphalt.

As an essential separation and purification method, solvent extraction was widely used in many fields. In previous studies, extractants had received much attention, while the role of diluents had often been ignored. However, the diluent had a very complex effect on the extraction process. In the study, the influence of diluent on the extraction of chromium with amide as an extractant was discussed in detail. In order to increase the universality of the study, the common organic solvents, including alkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, and halohydrocarbons, were selected as diluents. The extraction performance, formation of extracted complex, and thermodynamics under different diluents were determined. In addition, FT-IR and UV–Vis spectral analyses have been carried out to investigate the influence of diluent on the spectrum. The results showed that the diluent had an obvious influence on the spectrum of the amide group before extraction, and the influence was weakened after extraction. Based on the analysis of molecular electrostatic potential, the effect of diluent on the reaction site of amide extractant was investigated. Further, the molecular polarity index was used to calculate polarity parameters and deepen the understanding of the effect of diluent on the extraction process. The study provided a theoretical basis for other extraction systems to select appropriate diluents.

A phosphorous-silicon (SiP) precursor was synthesized using p-phthalaldehyde, (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane and 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenantrene-10-oxide. The SiP was used to fabricate a phosphorous-silicon hybrid microsphere (SiP-M) via the sol-gel method. The SiP-M was employed to enhance the flame retardancy of poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The results indicate that PBAT containing 0.1 wt% of SiP-M displays a UL-94 V0 rating and a limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of 26.5 vol%. Meanwhile, PBAT containing 1.0 wt% SiP-M exhibits a UL-94 V0 rating and a LOI value of 29.8 vol%, and some reductions in peak heat release rate , total heat release, and total smoke production. The SiP-M functions in both the gas phase and condense phase in the PBAT blend, and the former is predominant. In addition, a coupling agent KH560 was used to modify the interface adhesion between PBAT and SiP-M. The tensile strength and elongation at the break of PBAT blends are enhanced by an appropriate amount of KH560. This work provides an efficient method for preparing flame-retardant PBAT without deteriorating its mechanical properties .

Ethylene glycol (EG) and water mixtures can be used as the antifreeze, refrigerant and coolant due to their good environmental, thermodynamic and transport performance. The mixture’s accurate thermal conductivity is indispensable for the optimal design of the relevant heat exchangers. However, thermal conductivity of EG/water mixtures is lacking and is seen to limit the further industrial application. In this paper, the transient hot wire method (THW) was used to measure the thermal conductivities of five EG/water mixtures (with ethylene glycol mass fraction w EG = 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00) in the temperature range from 253.15 K to 353.15 K and pressures up to 8.0 MPa. A comparison was made between the present experimental data and literature values, yielding a good agreement. The AADs are within 2.65% for EG/water mixture systems. For convenience of engineering calculations, the present experimental data were correlated as a function of temperature and pressure. The average absolute deviations (AADs) between the experimental thermal conductivities and the calculations are 0.50%, 0.10%, 0.60%, 0.40% and 0.32% for mixture systems with ethylene glycol mass fraction w EG = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, respectively. In addition, non-equilibrium molecular dynamics was applied to study the thermal conductivities of ethylene glycol/water binary mixtures based on PCFF (polymer consistent force field) and SPC/E (extended simple point charge) model, showing a good agreement with the experimental data. This study can provide fundamental thermal conductivity data for the heat transfer application of ethylene glycol aqueous solution in the industrial field.

To improve the performance of lime mortar, ancient craftsmen often added various additives to mortars, including inorganic and organic materials. The analysis of mortar additives plays an important role in the conservation and restoration of historical buildings. However, it is quite difficult to accurately identify the species of additives. This paper proposed a series of semi-quantitative analytical procedures to identify the organic additives in ancient lime mortars. By using reagents such as phenolphthalein, periodic acid, acetylacetone, anthrone, bicinchoninic acid (BCA), iodine-potassium iodide, chloramine T, etc., organic additives such as triglyceride, soluble sugar, starch, and protein (including blood, gelatine, and other unknown proteins) remaining in ancient lime mortar were accurately detected, respectively. The linear relationship of the standard curve was significant, and the detection limits for the target additives were below 7 µg/mL. The process is easy to operate within 6 h, and it is suitable for rapid in-situ testing.

In this study, lipoxygenase (LOX) extracted from dry-cured mackerel was purified, resulting in a 4.1-fold purification factor with a specific activity of 493.60 U/min·g. LOX enzymatic properties were assessed, referring to its optimal storage time (1–2 days), temperature (30 °C), and pH value (7.0). The autoxidation and LOX-induced oxidation of palmitic acid (C16:0), stearic acid (C18:0), oleic acid (C18:2n9c), linoleic acid (C18:2n6c), arachidonic acid (C20:4), EPA (C20:5), and DHA (C22:6n3) were simulated to explore the main metabolic pathways of key flavors in dry-cured mackerel. The results showed that the highest LOX activity was observed when arachidonic acid was used as a substrate. Aldehydes obtained from LOX-treated C18:1n9c and C18:2n6c oxidation, which are important precursors of flavors, were the most abundant. The key flavors in dry-cured mackerel were found in the oxidative products of C16:0, C18:0, C18:1n9c, C18:2n6c, and C20:4. Heptanaldehyde could be produced from autoxidation or LOX-induced oxidation of C18:0 and C18:1n9c, while nonal could be produced from C18:1n9c and C18:2n6c oxidation. Metabolic pathway analysis revealed that C18:1n9c, C18:2n6c, EPA, and DHA made great contributions to the overall flavor of dry-cured mackerel. This study may provide a relevant theoretical basis for the scientific control of the overall taste and flavor of dry-cured mackerel and further standardize its production.Keywords:lipoxygenase;fatty acids;autoxidation;enzymatic oxidation;volatile compounds

Liquid crystal (LC) droplets exhibit unique and sensitive response behaviors to surface absorptions, making them promising candidates for sensing aplications. Here, we have developed a label-free, portable, and cost-effective sensor for the specific and rapid detection of silver ions (Ag + ) in drinking-water samples. To achieve this, we have modified cytidine into a surfactant (denoted as C10–M–C) and anchored it onto the surface of LC droplets. The specific binding ability between cytidine and Ag + enables LC droplets anchored with C10–M–C to respond rapidly and specifically to Ag + ions. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the response meets requirements for the harmless concentration of Ag + in drinking-water. The sensor we developed is label-free, portable, and cost-effectively. We believe that the sensor reported here can be applied to the detection of Ag + in drinking-water and environmental samples.

In this work, the low-temperature oxidation of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (OME 3 ) with multi-component surrogates for diesel (DS:60%n-heptane/20%cyclohexane/20%toluene) and gasoline (GS:20%n-heptane/60%iso-octane/20%toluene) blends was investigated respectively using a jet-stirred reactor (JSR) with a temperature range of 500–950 K, constant fuel fraction of 0.008, residence time (τ) of 2 s and near atmospheric pressure. Two detailed multi-component kinetic mechanisms were established to describe the low-temperature oxidation characteristics and the interaction of blended fuels. Generally, the oxidation process of highly-reactive OME 3 and n-heptane is inhibited, while that of inactive fuels, including iso-octane, cyclohexane and toluene, are triggered and enhanced in various degrees in the blends. The OH radical acts as a bridge between high and low reactivity components. It is of interest that n-heptane reveals a quite different low-temperature oxidation behavior in diesel (DS) and gasoline (GS) surrogate respectively. In GS, the low-temperature oxidation of n-heptane is significantly inhibited, while in DS, the inhibition is mild, mainly due to the much different low-temperature oxidation characteristics of iso-octane and cyclohexane. As for OME 3 , it mainly improves the reactivity of the blends in the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) process. As for low-reactivity fuels of iso-octane and toluene, their low-temperature oxidations are completely triggered and dominated by highly-reactive fuels due to their weak OH build-up ability. On the contrary, when the low-temperature oxidation of cyclohexane is triggered, its self-enhancement also plays a crucial role in addition to the promoting effect from highly-reactive fuels. Therefore, cyclohexane reveals a promoting-ignition effect on the blended fuels, while iso-octane and toluene act as an inhibiting-ignition factor in blends.

Dining lampblack as a source of atmospheric pollution, urban residents had to spend a lot of economic costs all year round to solve its impact. However, traditional treatment methods often carry the risk of secondary pollution. The use of phase change absorption solvent (PCAS) controlled by CO 2 can effectively absorb the oily components in dining lampblack, and smoothly avoid the generation of secondary pollutants and squandering of resources. The reversibility of PCASs under CO 2 control was explained by pH changes and macroscopic visualizations. The absorption effects of favorable absorbents and PCASs on dining lampblack were compared and analyzed. The fatty acid (FA) in the oil absorption mixture was desorbed by interacting with D230. The results of GC/MS analysis on the oil components separated by desorption showed that the desorption of PCASs was effective for these refractory oil components. FAs can be enriched and applied to the subsequent dining lampblack treatment link to realize the waste recycling. In addition, the absorption and desorption of oily components by PCASs were combined with the CO 2 -controlled phase transformation of PCASs itself to achieve the absorption circulation of treating dining lampblack by using PCASs.

Star-shaped superplasticizers exhibited excellent dispersion performance on cement paste , but the molecular structure remained poorly controlled. This study develops three star-shaped block superplasticizers via atom transfer radical polymerization to investigate their effects on fluidity and early hydration in the Portland cement system. The three star-shaped block superplasticizers with acid to ether monomer ratio of 28, 36 and 100, are marked as SPCE-1, SPCE-2 and SPCE-3 respectively. Fluidity test shows that SPCE-1 and SPCE-3 with higher hydrodynamic radius exhibit better initial fluidizing effect than SPCE-2. Besides, there is competitive adsorption of SPCEs between the clinker phase and nano-ettringite in pore solution. SPCE-1 behaves best in fluidity retention due to the increase of adsorption amount over hydration time. A dispersion mechanism based on the extended-DLVO theory was proposed that SPCEs reduce hydrophobic interaction between cement grains and prevent agglomeration between cement grains and air bubbles.
