The inherent floatability of chalcopyrite and molybdenite, together with the environmental concerns associated with conventional depressants, poses a persistent challenge to their efficient and sustainable separation. Therefore, this study evaluates the potential of 4-amino-6-hydroxy-2-mercaptopyrimidine (AHMM) as an efficient depressant and systematically investigates its role in improving flotation selectivity and regulating interfacial interactions. Micro-flotation experiments showed that at neutral pH and an AHMM concentration of 12 mg/L, the recovery of molybdenite reached 92.91%, whereas that of chalcopyrite was only 7.76%. This large difference corresponds to a selectivity index of 12.48, enabling highly efficient separation of the two minerals. Surface analyses—including zeta potential measurements and surface wettability tests—indicated that AHMM preferentially adsorbed onto chalcopyrite, significantly reducing its hydrophobicity. FTIR and XPS results demonstrated that the S and N atoms of AHMM coordinated with Cu atoms on the chalcopyrite surface, leading to the formation of stable surface complexes. DFT calculations further supported the robust chemisorption of AHMM on the chalcopyrite surface, producing a four-membered chelate via Cu–S and Cu–N coordination. Overall, this study demonstrates that AHMM has significant potential to serve as an efficient and selective depressant for chalcopyrite in Cu–Mo flotation separation processes.

Self-assembled nanocomposites typically form through the phase separation of immiscible components, yet controllable synthesis with tailored functionalities remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate a substrate-directed self-assembled 2-(1-3)-structured nanocomposite via topotactic phase separation, preserving the crystallographic orientation from the substrate. It comprises a horizontal antiferromagnetic (AFM) rocksalt layer (2) at the substrate and vertical rocksalt nanopillars (1) embedded in a ferrimagnetic (FiM) spinel matrix (3). The nanopillars arise from kinetic trapping of late-arriving rocksalt species unable to diffuse through the growing spinel layer, forming “frozen diffusion channels” under continuous pulsed laser deposition. Importantly, the comparable magnitudes of AFM anisotropy and AFM-FiM interfacial exchange coupling enable two phenomena: switching between coercivity enhancement and exchange bias regimes, and field-free manipulation of AFM order. This approach offers precise control of magnetic interactions in self-assembled nanocomposites for advanced spintronic applications.

The edge-sharing connection mode of [BO4] tetrahedra has greatly enriched the structural chemistry of borates, which provides more options and possibilities for designing more materials with unique structures and excellent performance. A zinc borate Ba5Zn4(B3O6)2(B12O24) (BaZnBO) was synthesized via a high-temperature solid reaction. Its uniqueness lies in not only introducing Zn into the structure of β-BaB2O4 but also containing the unusual edge-sharing [BO4] tetrahedra. The functional building units are isolated [B3O6] and [B12O24] groups. The adjacent [B3O6] groups are linked to a layer in the ab plane and further stack along the [001] direction, while the [B12O24] groups are located in the middle of these layers, thus forming the “sandwich” structure. This work also analyzed the impact of introducing Zn into β-BaB2O4 on the structure of anions. In addition, BaZnBO also exhibits good thermal stability and excellent optical properties including the short cut-off edge (204 nm) and suitable birefringence (0.058@1064 nm).

Biomass materials as an abundant renewable resource could replace traditional fossil fuels and non-renewable materials, providing a new solution to achieve sustainable development. In this paper, Ce-modified Co(OH) 2 /Cu 2 O composite catalysts were prepared by an electrodeposition method, and the CoOOH/CuOOH dual active sites were successfully obtained through an electrochemical reconfiguration strategy, and the experimental results showed that the incorporation of Ce induced the formation of high-valent Co and Cu species, which improved the activity of electrocatalytic HMF oxidation. At 0.55 V vs Hg/HgO, the HMF conversion reached 100%, the FDCA yield was 95.04% and the Faraday efficiency was up to 98.47%. These results confirm the effectiveness of Ce-based non-precious metal catalysts in electrochemical reconstruction strategies and demonstrate their potential application in the high-value conversion of biomass derivatives. This finding not only provides a solid research basis for the development of highly efficient catalysts, but is also expected to promote the development of related technological fields.

BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic and treatment-resistant disorder requiring potent therapeutics that are effective and safe. Cedrol (CE) is a bioactive natural product present in many traditional Chinese medicines. It is known for its suppression of inflammation and mitigation of oxidative stress. Its therapeutic efficacy and mechanistic underpinnings in UC remain uncharacterized. AIM To investigate the therapeutic potential and mechanisms of CE in UC. METHODS The anti-inflammatory activity and intestinal barrier-repairing effects of CE were assessed in a dextran sulfate sodium-induced murine colitis model. Network pharmacology was employed to predict potential targets and pathways. Then molecular docking and dynamics simulations were utilized to confirm a stable interaction between CE and the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 2 (MD2) complex. The anti-inflammatory mechanisms were further verified using in vitro assays. Additionally, the gut microbiota composition was analyzed via 16S rRNA gene sequencing. RESULTS CE significantly alleviated colitis symptoms, mitigated histopathological damage, and suppressed inflammation. Moreover, CE restored intestinal barrier integrity by enhancing mucus secretion and upregulating tight junction proteins (zonula occludens 1, occludin, claudin-1). Mechanistically, CE stably bound to MD2, inhibiting lipopolysaccharide-induced TLR4 signaling in RAW264.7 cells. This led to suppression of the downstream mitogen-activated protein kinase and nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathways, downregulating the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1β, and interleukin-6. Gut microbiota analysis revealed that CE reversed dextran sulfate sodium-induced dysbiosis with significant enrichment of butyrogenic Christensenella minuta . CONCLUSION CE acted on MD2 to suppress proinflammatory cascades, promoting mucosal barrier reconstitution and microbiota remodeling and supporting its therapeutic use in UC.

In this study, we investigated the viscosity data of carbonated aqueous blends of 1-dimethylamino-2-propanol (DMA2P) and piperazine (PZ) over a temperature range of 303.2 to 323.2 K at atmospheric pressure. The concentration of DMA2P and PZ ranged from 30 wt% to 50 wt% and 2.5 wt% to 7.5 wt%, respectively. The experimental viscosities were calculated and predicted using the Weiland equation. The calculations showed good agreement with the experimental results, yielding an average relative deviation of 2.18%. Furthermore, the viscosity activation energy ( E a) and the estimated diffusion coefficient of CO 2 ( D CO2 ) into the carbonated DMA2P-PZ aqueous blends were derived using the Arrhenius-type expression and the modified Stokes-Einstein equation, respectively. The results indicate that the DMA2P-PZ absorbent exhibits promising potential for industrial application in CO 2 capture processes.

The efficacy of eight kinds of green leaf volatiles (GLVs) was investigated as potential natural antifungal agents against Aspergillus flavus in this study. Based on the in vitro assay, volatile phase inhibitory effects of the selected eight GLVs were consistently more effective on A. flavus growth than contact phase inhibitory effects, and ( E )-2-hexenal exhibited the highest efficacy as it could totally inhibited growth of A. flavus at concentrations of 0.032 μL/mL air and 1.6 μL/mL under vapor and contact conditions, respectively. Furthermore, results obtained from the in vivo assay demonstrated that ( E )-2-hexenal possessed potent fumigant activity in reducing A. flavus infection in stored peanut seeds, as it could completely inhibit colonization of A. flavus at 0.32 μL/mL air. Both in vitro and in vivo assay results provided convincing evidence that ( E )-2-hexenal, one of the GLVs that is naturally present in many plants, can potentially be used as a highly efficient and eco-friendly antifungal fumigant to protect peanut seeds from contamination of A. flavus during storage.

Hydrophobic charge-induction chromatography (HCIC) with 2-mercapto-1-methyl-imidazole (MMI) ligands shows promising results in antibody purification. In this study, competitive adsorption processes between bovine immunoglobulin G (IgG) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated with MMI resins. Adsorption isotherms of IgG, BSA and IgG/BSA mixtures at various mass ratios were measured, and the Langmuir-Freundlich model was used to fit the adsorption experimental data. The results indicated that IgG could be preferentially adsorbed by MMI resins, and MMI-B-4FF-100 resin with the pore size of 43.2 nm and the ligand density of 101 μmol/g gel showed the best adsorption selectivity of IgG over BSA. In addition, binding behaviors of IgG and BSA in column were studied with MMI-B-4FF-100 at various pH values, and the optimized separation conditions were obtained as loading at pH 7.0 and elution at pH 4.0. Furthermore, IgG was effectively separated from IgG/BSA protein mixtures with MMI-B-4FF-100. The purities of IgG monomer reached above 95%, and the recovery kept about 90%. The results indicated that MMI-B-4FF-100 with high ligand density and moderate pore size would be a promising HCIC resin for IgG purification.

Electrochemical conversion of metal hexacyanoferrates into their oxides or hydroxides was successfully achieved and reported using nickel hexacyanoferrates (Ni-HCF). Herein, a versatile strategy for such a conversion was explored by potential cycling Ni(OH) 2 nanoparticle film modified electrodes in K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] or K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] solution. The results show that K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] is more prone to the conversion from Ni(OH) 2 to Ni-HCF. Their composition , morphology, and structure were characterized by the techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV–vis spectrometry . The reaction mechanism is tentatively given. This strategy is also suitable for the other metal hydroxides including rare earth hydroxides such as neodymium, samarium etc.

A series of mono- and binuclear Co(II) complexes ( Co1 – Co7 ) supported by quinoline-2-imidate ligands were synthesized and thoroughly characterized. Measured by single crystal X-ray crystallography, complexes Co1 and Co3 adopted distorted tetrahedral structures around the cobalt center. Upon activation by ethylaluminium sesquichloride (EASC), these cobalt complexes exhibited high catalytic activity and cis -1,4-selectivity towards 1,3-butadiene polymerization. The effects of ligand environment, polymerization temperature, and cocatalyst types on the polymerization were investigated in detail. Interestingly, the binuclear Co(II) complexes exhibited high thermal stability, and the polymer yields were up to 97.2% even at a high temperature of 70 °C.

Nanostructure of ordered polyaniline-graphene (PANI-rGO PMAS ) hybrid nanomaterials is assembled based on poly(2-methoxyaniline-5-sulfonic acid) (PMAS) functionalized reduced graphene oxide (rGO PMAS ) nanosheets. The presence of PMAS not only improves dispersibility of reduced graphene oxide nanosheets, but also plays a key role for heterogeneous nucleation of polyaniline (PANI) nanorods . The formation mechanism of ordered PANI-rGO PMAS hybrid nanomaterials was studied in details by using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV–vis). The conductivity of PANI-rGO PMAS hybrid with 17 wt% rGO PMAS is as high as 4480 S/m, compared with 2.93 S/m for pure PANI. The cyclic voltammetry tests indicate that, PANI-rGO PMAS containing 2 wt% rGO PMAS possesses fast response to redox reactions and excellent reversible stability. It has a high specific capacitance of 385 F g −1 at the scan rate of 10 mV s −1 with potential ranges from −0.2 to 0.8 V. This ordered polyaniline-graphene hybrid has potential applications for flexible supercapacitors, sensors, batteries, electromagnetic materials and thermoelectric materials, etc.

In this work, Zn(OH) 2 nanosheets embedded with carbon dots (CDs) were prepared through a template-free microwave-assisted route for the first time. The preparative strategy was facile, green and cost-effective. The final composites possessed uniform size distribution, good fluorescence property, excellent stability and fast adsorption ability for metal ions. A novel and ultrasensitive fluorescent assay has been proposed using CDs/Zn(OH) 2 composites as amplifying fluorescent sensors for rapid detection of Cu 2+ and Hg 2+ in real water samples. Aided by a Cu 2+ /Hg 2+ chelating agent, exclusive detection could be expected without cross-reactivity, as well as reversible and reproduced analysis. The detection limits were 0.3 nM for Cu 2+ and 0.2 nM for Hg 2+ , respectively. This assay could effectively enrich/separate and detect Hg 2+ and Cu 2+ simultaneously, revealing remarkable advantages including operational simplicity, high sensitivity, low cost and acceptable reproducibility.
