The large-scale implementation of direct ethylene glycol fuel cells (DEGFCs) relies on the design of catalysts that possess exceptional activity, durability, and efficient C–C bond breaking ability. However, Pt and Pd-based nanomaterials continue to face challenges of low selectivity and slow reaction kinetics in driving the complete oxidation of ethylene glycol to CO 2 . In this work, a facile one-pot reduction method is reported for controllable synthesis of PtBi nanodendrites (PtBi-NDs) composed of ultrathin bimetallene subunits. In alkaline media, the composition optimized PtBi-NDs demonstrate outstanding activity and strong resistance to CO poisoning during the ethylene glycol oxidation reaction (EGOR). The PtBi-NDs show 5.8-fold higher mass activity, enhanced stability, and superior C1 selectivity relative to commercial Pt nanoparticles (Pt c-NCs). Most strikingly, PtBi-NDs deliver a higher power density (8.3 mW cm –2 ) than Pt c-NCs in DEGFCs. The theoretical analysis and experimental measurements explain that the introduction of Bi element into Pt induces d–p orbital hybridization and promotes electron transfer from Bi to Pt, thereby facilitating C–C bond cleavage and boosting EGOR kinetics. This work establishes an effective strategy for constructing Pt-based ultrathin bimetallenes and offers fundamental insights into boosting EGOR performance via d-p orbital hybridization.

In this work, a "bottom-up" strategy was proposed to one-step, in-situ synthesize P@ZSM-5 zeolites in a sodium-free system by elaborately self-designed tetrapropylphosphonium hydroxide as a new member of MFI-type zeolite organic templates inventory, and the interaction of phosphorus species with framework aluminum was investigated in detail. Multiple advanced characterizations confirm that the tetrahedrally-coordinated bidentate P IV -O 2 -Al IV structures are precisely customized and uniformly scattered in the zeolite channels. After experiencing harsh hydrothermal treatment (100 %H 2 O, 800 °C, 17 h), this new structure endows excellent hydrothermal stability of zeolite (crystallinity retention beyond 95 %) and reinforces its Brønsted acidity. Furthermore, methanol-to-propylene tests show that directly synthetic P@ZSM-5 zeolite performs extraordinarily long lifetime (180 h, WHSV = 1 h −1 ), enviable propylene selectivity (60.4 %) and propylene/ethylene ratio ( ca. 4.3) compared to the counterparts, which is benefited from encouragingly olefinic cycle pathway. These findings afford value-filled opportunities in novel catalyst production mode and understandings for phosphorus-zeolite chemistry . Synopsis -A "bottom-up" strategy was demonstrated to one-step, in-situ synthesize P@ZSM-5 zeolite in a sodium-free system by elaborately self-designed tetrapropylphosphonium hydroxide. The resultant P@ZSM-5 catalyst with hyperuniformly-stable bidentate P IV -O 2 -Al IV structures exhibited extraordinarily long lifetime (180 h) and enviable propylene selectivity (60.4 %).

In the quest to bolster the electrochemical efficiency of metal oxide electrodes for high-performance hybrid supercapacitors, the integration of phosphorus doping emerges as a pivotal method. This study delves into the fabrication process of a specialized P-CNT on Cu–ZnO/NPC composite through a meticulous in-situ synthesis followed by phosphating. The strategic incorporation of phosphorus heteroatoms orchestrates a profound alteration in the electronic structure of the Cu–ZnO/NPC matrix, effectively augmenting its storage capabilites. The electrode showcases a commendable specific capacitance of 1619C/g. Making this innovation into a hybrid supercapacitor configuration (P-CNT@Cu–ZnO/NPC //activated carbon) yields an impressive energy density of 56.13 Wh/kg at 1250 W/kg. Even after enduring 10,000 exhaustive testing cycles, the device remarkably retains 98.0 % of its initial capacitance, affirming the resilience and enduring performance of this tailored design. In oxygen evolution reaction (OER) application, the P-CNT@Cu–ZnO/NPC electrode demonstrated 43.26 mV/dec tafel slope. These groundbreaking findings underscore the transformative potential of the P-CNT@Cu–ZnO/NPC composite in shaping the landscape of future energy storage electrode materials.

Structural colors forming by photonic crystal microspheres as a novel coloring method has received more and more attention in many fields. However, photonic crystal polymer microspheres usually do not have special functions, which limits their application. In this study, a novel polymer photonic crystal microspheres of poly (hexafluorobutyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) (P(HFBMA-co-GMA)) containing hydrophobic functional groups and reactive epoxy groups were synthesized. The structural colorized cotton fabrics with Janus characteristic of different colors and different hydrophilicity of two sides were prepared by spraying the functional P(HFBMA-co-GMA) microspheres on the polydopamine (PDA) modified cotton fabrics. P(HFBMA-co-GMA) microspheres can self-assemble into amorphous photonic crystals (APCs) with long-range disordered and short-range ordered on PDA modified cotton fabrics, showing crack-free and bright structural colors. The Janus structural colorized cotton fabrics with four different colors were obtained by spraying the P(HFBMA-co-GMA) microspheres with different particle diameters which were prepared by changing the molar ratios of HFBMA and GMA. The Janus structural colorized cotton fabrics have excellent flexibility, air permeability and colorfastness showing a good application prospect in functional textiles. This research provides a new strategy to prepare the functional structural color fabrics with Janus characteristic based on the synthesis of the functional polymer microspheres.

m -Cresol and p -cresol cannot be effectively separated using conventional distillation because of their proximate boiling temperatures. This study investigated the adsorption separation of cresol using the short b -axis ZSM-5 synthesized via a urea-assisted method. In contrast to the ellipsoidal HZSM-5, which was approximately 1 μm in length, the thickness of the sheet-like HZSM-5 decreased to 36 nm, resulting in an increase in total cresol adsorption capacity from 76 to 122 mg/g. Applying the CLD method, an increase in the TEOS:HZSM-5 ratio from 0 to 0.83 resulted in the increase in p -cresol adsorption capacity from 69 to 106 mg/g, while m -cresol adsorption capacity dropped from 53 to 12 mg/g. The adsorption selectivity significantly rose from 1.3 to 9.7. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms demonstrated that the process was exothermic for p -cresol and endothermic for m -cresol.

Heteroatom-doped porous carbon materials (HPCMs) have attracted great attention due to their excellent physical and chemical properties and the enhanced performance of multiple heteroatom co-doping. Herein, N, P-co-doped porous carbon materials (NPPCs) are developed via a novel synthesis of the phytic acid-induced self-assembled chitosan aerogel followed by pyrolysis and activation. Phytic acid serves as a P source, acid regulator and structure-directing agent for improved activation efficiency to create more pores. A little of NaNO 3 is used both as a template and activator simultaneously. The porosity and N content of such NPPCs are controlled by rationally tuning the pyrolysis temperature and the mount of NaNO 3 . The NPPC-0.75-600 delivers a good CO 2 adsorption capability of 3.02 and 5.31 mmol g −1 at 100 and 500 kPa, respectively, and has an excellent stability with almost no adsorption capacity decay even after successive 20 cycles. For supercapacitors (SCs), the NPPC-0.75-700 also displays a high capacitance of 231.2 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and an outstanding stability at circa 96.7% initial capacity after 10000 cycles. These results highlight the great potential of such NPPCs in CO 2 capture and SCs, and the novel synthetical route offers new insights for the readily scalable production of HPCMs.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) in tumor cells is a significant obstacle for successful cancer chemotherapy. Overexpression of drug efflux transporters such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a key factor contributing to the development of tumor drug resistance. Verapamil (VRP), a P-gp inhibitor, has been reported to be able to reverse completely the resistance caused by P-gp. For optimal synergy, the drug and inhibitor combination may need to be temporally colocalized in the tumor cells. Herein, we investigated the effectiveness of simultaneous and targeted delivery of anticancer drug, paclitaxel (PTX), along with VRP, using DOMC-FA micelles to overcome tumor drug resistance. The floate-functionalized dual agent loaded micelles resulted in the similar cytotoxicity to PTX-loaded micelles/free VRP combination and co-administration of two single-agent loaded micelles, which was higher than that of PTX-loaded micelles. Enhanced therapeutic efficacy of dual agent micelles could be ascribe to increased accumulation of PTX in drug-resistant tumor cells. We suggest that the synergistic effect of folate receptor-mediated internalization and VRP-mediated overcoming MDR could be beneficial in treatment of MDR solid tumors by targeting delivery of micellar PTX into tumor cells. As a result, the difunctional micelle systems is a very promising approach to overcome tumor drug resistance.

Nano-Li 2 Mn 0.5 Fe 0.5 SiO 4 /C cathode material is synthesized by a hydrothermal route and phosphorus substitution is applied to improve structural stability and electrochemical properties. At low substitution content, P element completely enters into the lattice, forms [PO 4 ] tetrahedrons and partially replaces [SiO 4 ] tetrahedrons , which is confirmed by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope measurements. Phosphorus substitution helps to suppress the change of coordination number of Mn and stabilize the material structure to some extent, obtaining better electrochemical performance in the early cycle. With the increase of P content, parts of P element exist in Li 3 PO 4 which distributes uniformly and co-exists with active substance. Electrochemical tests prove that existing Li 3 PO 4 has positive impacts on cycle and rate performance, and the lithium ion diffusion coefficient increases by about 14 times than pristine sample. Under the synergistic effects of phosphate substation and proper Li 3 PO 4 , Li 2 Mn 0.5 Fe 0.5 SiO 4 /C shows enhanced electrochemical performances.

In this study, potassium ferrate(VI) was employed for the degradation of p-arsanilic acid (p-ASA) and simultaneous removal of the generated arsenic species though in-situ coagulation. The effects of several factors, including ferrate(VI) dosage, initial pH, coexisting anions, and humic acid, on the p-ASA degradation and arsenic species removal were investigated. Under various water quality conditions, an excellent removal of p-ASA could always be achieved with the 20:1 mol radio dosage of ferrate(VI) and p-ASA within 30 min. But the removal of arsenic species is significantly affected by the water quality. It could be inhibited by alkalinity and presence of phosphate and humic acid. The generated ferric oxide was mainly 2-line ferrihydrite according to the XRD and XPS analysis. Based on the HPLC-HG-AFS and GC–MS analysis, the major degradation products were detected and the mechanism of the p-ASA degradation by ferrate(VI) and the released arsenic removal by 2-line ferrihydrite generated from ferrate(VI) was given. Two simultaneous degradation pathways of p-ASA were proposed. The p-ASA in solution attacked by ferrate(VI) in solution would lead cleavage of the As–C bond firstly to generate As(III) and p-aminophenol. On the other hand, small amounts of p-ASA initially absorbed on 2-line ferrihydrite would be firstly converted to 4-nitrophenylarsonic acid through the oxidation of –NH 2 to –NO 2 by ferrate(VI), subsequently transformed to As(III) and p-nitrophenol. Combined with the strong oxidizing and the high removal capacity of released arsenic by its generated product, ferrate(VI) have well potential applications for controlling the risk of p-ASA in wastewater.

A novel and efficient light-controlled colorimetric assay for the quantification and detection of nitroreductase (NTR) was constructed based on p-aminophenol (pAP)-catalyzed and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)-mediated generation of AgNPs. Due to the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenol by NTR in the presence of NADH, the hydrolysis product can be used as a catalyst to catalyze the reduction of Ag+ by NADH under the light. As the concentration of NTR increases, the value of absorbance at ca. 400 nm (A400) decreases and the color of the solution turns from brown to bright yellow. A linear correlation was obtained between A400 and the NTR concentration in the range from 1–50 μg mL−1 and the limit of detection (LOD) is 0.27 μg mL−1. The detection system does not respond to other common biological molecules due to the specificity of enzymes and the effect of the nitroreductase inhibitor on the NTR activity was also tested. Finally, we applied the assay to determine NTR in human serum samples by spiking different concentrations of NTR with a recovery of 85.2%–92.5%.

We report a room-temperature NH3 gas sensor with high response and great long-term stability, including CeO2 NPs conformally coated by cross-linked PANI hydrogel. Such core–shell nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization with different weight ratios of CeO2 NPs and aniline. At room temperature, the nanohybrids showed enhanced response (6.5 to 50 ppm of NH3), which could be attributed to p–n junctions formed by the intimate contact between these two materials. Moreover, the stability was discussed in terms of phytic acid working as a gelator, which helped the PANI sheath accommodate itself and enhance the mechanical strength and chemical stability of the sensors by avoiding “swelling effect” in high relative humidity. The sensors maintained its sensing characteristic (response of ca. 6.5 to 50 ppm of NH3) in 15 days. Herein, the obtained results could help to accelerate the development of ammonia gas sensor.

Here we show a novel strategy for tailoring the synergistic electrical properties of metal@semiconductor hybrid nanocrystals (HNCs) based on cation exchange-enabled electronic doping. As a demonstration, the conductive nature of Au@CdS core–shell HNCs was changed from n- to p-type by introducing Cu dopants into the CdS shell. The dependence of the conductivity type on the dopant concentration in the HNCs is disclosed by combined photoelectrochemical (PEC) studies. Moreover, a tandem PEC cell consisting of an undoped Au@CdS photoanode and a Cu-doped Au@CdS photocathode respectively modified with cocatalysts is fabricated, which displayed stable H2 and O2 evolution in unassisted PEC overall water splitting.
