Photodynamic (PDT) and chemodynamic therapies (CDT) relying on reactive oxygen species-mediated treatments mainly face various challenges of hypoxia, endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) deficiency, and glutathione (GSH) overexpression in the tumor microenvironment. Herein, we propose a novel strategy using a core–shell structured nanocomposite, UCNP@mSiO 2 @5-ALA-CaO 2 -Cu(UA@CC). The strategy centers on upconverting NPs and then utilizes mesoporous silica loaded with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) to maximize the enrichment of protoporphyrin IX (Pph IX), an intra-tumor photosensitizer. Then in the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), CaO 2 in the outer layer reacts with H 2 O to form O 2 , H 2 O 2 and Ca 2+ , and the released H 2 O 2 serves as an auxiliary “fuel” to induce acceleration of the Fenton-like (Cu 2+ ) reaction and inactivation of the antioxidant GSH enzyme, thus enhancing the tumor cells’ Catalysis. Furthermore, under the excitation of a 980 nm laser, 5-ALA-mediated PDT and Cu + -based CDT were initiated. Through interconnected processes of Ca 2+ overload, self-supply of H 2 O 2 /O 2 , and enhanced GSH depletion, an accelerated cycling strategy for combined PDT/CDT therapy was established, resulting in amplified oxidative stress and anti-tumor capabilities, which was validated in cancer cells and melanoma mouse models.

A novel and efficient 1,2-oxidative trifluoromethylation of olefins employing Ag(O 2 CCF 2 SO 2 F) as a trifluoromethyl source is described with O 2 as the oxidant, which provides access to a variety of valuable α-trifluoromethyl-substituted ketones. The broad substrate scope, feasibility of large-scale operation, and derivatization reactions of α-trifluoromethyl ketones demonstrate the promising utility of this protocol.

Electrolyte is the key to constructing the ionic transport paths and O2 gas diffusion routes in the cathode as well as maintaining the electrode interfacial stability in view of the complex chemistry of Li–O2 batteries. A novel poly(vinyl formal) (PVFM)-based Janus membrane, which is prepared via coating multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the porous side of the cross-linked PVFM membrane, has been proposed herein to achieve membrane-supporting gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) for Li–O2 batteries. Within Li–O2 batteries, the dense side of PVFM-based Janus membrane demonstrates a good compatibility with lithium metal anode, while the other side with MWCNTs coating reserves much more solvent on the surface, assisting the cathode to form enlarged electrolyte-wetted interface. Moreover, the comparative studies indicate that PVFM-based Janus membrane also can provide a conductive pathway, modulate the morphology of the discharge products, and produce accommodation space for the products. So, the Li–O2 batteries containing PVFM-based Janus membrane-supporting GPE not only demonstrate significantly improved discharge capacity and cycling stability, i.e., 150 times at 1000 mAh g–1 capacity limitation, but also a narrow voltage gap of 0.90 V and an excellent rate performance up to 1000 mA g–1.

Electrochemical synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) via two-electron pathway of oxygen reduction reaction is a promising alternative to the current anthraquinone process. The H 2 O 2 production from O 2 is a competing reaction with four-electron O 2 reduction to H 2 O, and the selectivity is related to the adsorption energy of the OOH intermediate on electrocatalysts surface. Generally, the properties for binding of OOH intermediate on catalysts can be controlled by changing its electronic structure. Herein, the electronic structure of porous carbon materials was tuned by doping different types and contents of fluorine species. The yield of H 2 O 2 generation depended on the F content and the best catalytic activity toward H 2 O 2 electrosynthesis was obtained with F content of 3.41 at.%. The resultant F-doped porous carbon (FPC) catalysts exhibited good H 2 O 2 selectivity of 97.5–83.0% and the H 2 O 2 production rate could reach 112.6–792.6 mmol h −1 g −1 over the potential range of 0.2 V to −0.3 vs. RHE (pH 1). The density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experiments revealed that the incorporation of CF 2, 3 into carbon plane promotes the activation of O 2 molecule and facilitates desorption of OOH intermediate, which was crucial to H 2 O 2 synthesis.

Free-standing activated carbon nanofibers (ACNF) were prepared through electrospinning combining with CO2 activation and then used for nonaqueous Li–O2 battery cathodes. As-prepared ACNF based cathode was loosely packed with carbon nanofibers complicatedly overlapped. Owing to some micrometer-sized pores between individual nanofibers, relatively high permeability of O2 across the cathode becomes feasible. Meanwhile, the mesopores introduced by CO2 activation act as additional nucleation sites for Li2O2 formation, leading to an increase in the density of Li2O2 particles along with a size decrease of the individual particles, and therefore, flake-like Li2O2 are preferentially formed. In addition, the free-standing structure of ACNF cathode eliminates the side reactions about PVDF. As a result, the Li–O2 batteries with ACNF cathodes showed increased discharge capacities, reduced overpotentials, and longer cycle life in the case of full discharge and charge operation. This provides a novel pathway for the design of cathodes for Li–O2 battery.

In this work, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) was modified by Pd nanoparticles (Pd-CN) to prepare an efficient cathode catalyst for Li-O 2 batteries. The specific surface area of g-C 3 N 4 was improved to 239.56 m 2 /g by two-steps thermal polymerization. Pd nanoparticles were loaded onto the g-C 3 N 4 by K 2 PdCl 4 reduction with NaBH 4 . The resulted Pd-CN composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscope, and transmission electron microscope. The results proved that g-C 3 N 4 showed three-dimensional layered and porous structure, and Pd nanoparticles were successfully supported on it. The Li-O 2 batteries using Pd-CN composites as cathode catalysts were assembled and tested. The maximum initial discharge specific capacity reached 26,614 mAh g − 1 at current density of 100 mA g − 1 . The electrodes remained large capacity under high current density, meaning excellent rate capability. Li-O 2 batteries containing Pd-CN cathode were continuously cycled for 70 cycles with no loss of capacity and obvious change in the terminal voltage. These electrochemical results indicated that the loading Pd nanoparticles effectively increased specific capacity, reduced overpotential and improved the cyclic stability. The Pd-CN composites are proved to be the promising cathode catalysts for Li-O 2 batteries.

Nanoparticles presenting promoted catalytic activity, oxygen induction and loading capability are in high demand for effective synergistic tumor therapy. Herein, ferric-tannic acid complex nanocapsules with fine hollow microstructure (HFe-TA) are synthesized and loaded with a photosensitizer (indocyanine green, ICG) for synergistic tumor therapy. In acidic environment, ICG@HFe-TA decomposes and releases Fe3+ ions, TA and ICG molecules. Fe3+, with low catalytic activity, is effectively converted into highly catalytic Fe2+ by the reductant TA, enabling promoted efficacy of ˙OH induction. More importantly, the ROS (1O2) induction by ICG is significantly enhanced under 808 nm laser irradiation due to the O2 byproduct of Fe3+/Fe2+ conversion. In consequence, the ICG@HFe-TA nanoparticles exhibit considerable in vitro and in vivo tumor inhibition owing to the combined effect of ˙OH and 1O2 induced intracellularly. This study has therefore demonstrated a potential platform enabling combined photodynamic and chemodynamic therapy with high efficacy.

A novel ratiometric fluorescent sensor for superoxide radical (O 2 •− ) detection was developed based on Schiff base polymer (SBP)/rhodamine-B (SBP/RDB) nanocomposites. The SBP/RDB was investigated by atomic force microscopy , scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy , X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms and fluorescence spectroscopy, etc. The results showed the SBP was two-dimensional (2D) crystalline nanosheet with the thickness of 0.5 nm. RDB could be self-assembled on each of 2D SBP surface to form SBP/RDB due to the hydrogen bond between N atoms of SBP and –COOH of RDB as well as π-π interaction. The SBP/RDB exhibited the characteristic fluorescence emission of both SBP at 485 nm and RDB at 585 nm under an excitation of 270 nm. The 2D SBP was not only acted as template to assemble RDB, but also used as reference fluorescence for O 2 •− detection. The SBP/RDB fluorescence probe for O 2 •− detection demonstrated high sensitivity and selectivity with good linear range (11.1 ± 0.76 nM–8.0 ± 0.36 μM) and low detection limit (3.7 ± 0.42 nM). Because of the low cost and simple operation, the work sheds some new light to construct ratiometric fluorescent sensors based on SBP to detect O 2 •− in drinking water and human blood serum for commercial applications.

Melt blown-Nonwoven Polypropylene based materials have numerous applications, such as nonwoven fabrics, filtration membranes used in clothing and potential industrial use due to its higher breathability, durability, absorbency, and filtration properties. Nonwoven PP-fabrics are very often used to develop wearable articles such as garments. In this research melt blown-nonwoven polypropylene (NW-PP) membranes were functionalized using (O 2 ) cold plasma for the conversion of highly hydrophobic into hydrophilic nature to enhance the absorption and adhesion of graphene films on the fiber surface. The graphene oxide (GO) and NW membrane was successfully introduced on the fibrous mat and reduced into reduced Graphene oxide (rGO) with green chemical and thermal reduction. L-Ascorbic Acid was used as a reducing agent at a low-temperature microwave-assisted reduction at 90 °C. The as developed NW membrane was connected two copper electrodes and used as wearable pressure (WP) sensors. The physical sensor responds with different stretching and bending cycles under dynamic pressure of loading and unloading. The sensitivity of the developed pressure sensor was 0.050 kPa −1 in a wide pressure range (0–60 kPa). The resultant rGO coated NW-PP wearable pressure sensor (RNPWP) is capable of responding to human body movement and motion. The study demonstrates that mass production on an industrial scale graphene-based conductive nonwoven PP fabric potentially replaces the metal-based conductive wearable textiles for physical sensors.

The diffusion of five flavor organic molecules, including D-limonene, myrcene, ethyl hexanoate, 2-nonanone, and linalool in low density polyethylene (LDPE) film were investigated by combined experimental and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation studies. The diffusion coefficients derived from the prediction model, experimental determination, and MD simulation were compared, and the related microscopic diffusion mechanism was investigated. The effects of the presence of the flavor organic molecules on the diffusion of O2and H2O in polyethylene (PE) were also studied by MD simulation. Results show that: The diffusion of five flavor molecules in LDPE is well followed to Fick’s second law by the immersion experiment; MD simulation indicates the dual mode diffusion mechanism of the flavor molecules is in LDPE; the diffusion coefficients from MD simulation are close to those from the experimental determination, but are slightly larger than those values; the presence of the flavor organic molecules hinders the diffusion of O2and H2O, which can be well explained from the fraction of free volume (FFV) and interaction energy calculation results derived from MD simulation.Keywords:flavor organic molecules;LDPE film;molecular dynamics simulation;diffusion

Li-rich cathode materials are regarded as ideal cathode materials, owing to their excellent electrochemical capacity. However, residual lithium compounds, which are formed on the surface of the materials by reacting with moisture and carbon dioxide in ambient atmosphere, can impair the surface structure, injure the capacity, and impede the electrode fabrication using Li-rich materials. Exposure to air atmosphere causes the formation of residual lithium compounds; the formation of such compounds is believed to be related to humidity, temperature, and time during handling and storage. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time an artificial strategy for controlling time, temperature, and humidity to accelerate exposure. The formation and effect of residual lithium compounds on Li-rich cathode material Li1.35[Ni0.35Mn0.65]O2 were systematically investigated. The residual lithium compounds formed possessed primarily an amorphous structure and were partially coated on the surface. These compounds include LiOH, Li2O, and Li2CO3. Li2CO3 is the major component in residual lithium compounds. The presence of residual lithium compounds on the material surface led to a high discharge capacity loss and large discharge voltage fading. Understanding the formation and suppressing the effect of residual lithium compounds will help prevent their unfavorable effects and improve the electrochemical performance.

Hypothermal photothermal therapy, as a non-invasive therapy method, is becoming ever more prevalent. However, due to cellular heat resistance from the generation of heat shock proteins (HSPs) and the monotonicity of therapeutic modality, the antitumor efficacy is severely restricted. Herein, a self-supplied O 2 multifunctional nanoplatform mediated by glucose oxidase (GOx) is developed, which may combine starvation therapy (ST) and hypothermal photothermal therapy (HPTT) for tumor therapy. The obtained nanoplatform, [email protected] @ [email protected] (UMIGH), was assembled by the UIO-66 core, MnO 2 , indocyanine green (ICG) and hyaluronic acid (HA). GOx was introduced to decrease the ATP level thus alleviating the HSPs-mediated heat tolerance, while the loaded MnO 2 could decompose intratumoral H 2 O 2 into O 2 , which enhanced the effect of HPTT and ST. Due to the coated HA, UMIGH could target the high expressed CD44 in CT26 tumor cells. The active targeting and NPs-associated passive targeting promoted the uptake of nanoparticles. Furthermore, ICG encapsulated in UMIGH NPs could also accurately image tumors. This synergistic treatment strategy of HPTT and ST exhibited an excellent anti-proliferation effect on colon cancer cells in vitro and mouse xenograft model in vivo , which might bring an informatic strategy for future investigations.
