High-loading Pt/C catalysts play an important role in the practical application of metal–air batteries and fuel cells because of their superior activity, high conductivity, and commercial availability. It is well known that high loadings always lead to the agglomeration of Pt nanoparticles, resulting in a loss of catalytic activity and stability; thus, it still remains a challenge to prepare high-loading Pt/C catalysts with high dispersion and small particle sizes. Here, we introduce a surfactant-assisted microwave discharge method to prepare high-loading (>40 wt %) Pt/C electrocatalysts with ultrafine particle sizes (∼3.19 nm) and good dispersion. Benefitting from the high-temperature property and reducibility of carbon-induced-arc, the surfactant and Pt precursors undergo rapid decomposition, reduction, and carbonization, generating the structure of Pt@C on carbon black. The carbon derived from the surfactant can not only inhibit the agglomeration of Pt nanoparticles but also prevent the Pt core from toxication, ensuring high activity and stability of the high-loading Pt/C catalyst. When evaluated in the oxygen reduction reaction, the as-prepared Pt/C catalyst demonstrates a comparable activity and better methanol resistance to commercial Pt/C.

The conversion of lignin into value-added chemicals is one of the important ways for sustainable development. Herein, phytic acid, a biomass-derived chemical, was used as the phosphorus source and pore former to synthesize the AlPyOx support. After loading Ni, the Ni/AlPyOx catalysts were found to be highly active in the catalytic conversion of lignin model compounds to high-value-added chemicals under mild conditions. The benzyl phenyl ether (α-O-4 lignin model compound) could be completely converted into toluene and phenol with near-equivalent selectivity at 30 °C and 3 MPa H2. Diphenyl ether and 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol were also used as 4-O-5 and β-O-4 model compounds of lignin, respectively. The unique activity of Ni/AlP0.5Ox could be attributed to metallic Ni that interacts with AlP0.5Ox and the unique adsorption of substrates on the carrier. Lignin can also be degraded over Ni/AlP0.5Ox via selective cleavage of the C–O bond, and 26.60 wt % yield of identified monomers was obtained.

Efficient heat dissipation is very crucial for the performance, service life, and reliability of modern electronic devices. It is very challenging to improve heat dissipation efficiency through innovative material structure design. Therefore, in the work, dopamine (PDA) is used to coat the surface of graphite (C) with its excellent surface coating modification ability, so that the C surface has oxygen-containing groups to change its electronegativity, and Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ in the solution are attracted to the surface of C, and then in situ redox reaction occurs on the surface of C to generate magnetic graphite (Fe 3 O 4 @C). Fe 3 O 4 @C is uniformly dispersed into liquid silicone rubber (LSR) by solution blending, and Fe 3 O 4 @C performs integral directional filling in the LSR under the action of magnetic field ( B = 140 mT), thus preparing Fe 3 O 4 @C/LSR composites. Through magnetic field orientation, the thermal conductivity of Fe 3 O 4 @C/LSR composites reach 1.25 W/m·K when the content of Fe 3 O 4 @C is 100 phr, which is 410% higher than that of pure LSR (0.2447 W/m·K). Infrared thermal imaging test shows that Fe 3 O 4 @C/LSR composites has good heat dissipation performance, Fe 3 O 4 @C/LSR composites have shown great potential in terms of flexibility and high thermal conductivity.

Cadmium (Cd), a heavy metal, has harmful effects on animal and human health, and it can also obviously induce cell apoptosis. Quercetin (Que) is a flavonoid compound with antioxidant and other biological activities. To investigate the protective effect of Que on Cd-induced renal apoptosis in rats. 24 male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups. They were treated as follows: control group was administered orally with normal saline (10 ml/kg); Cd group was injected with 2 mg/kg CdCl2 intraperitoneally; Cd + Que group was injected with 2 mg/kg CdCl2 and intragastric administration of Que (100 mg/kg); Que group was administered orally with Que (100 mg/kg). The experimental results showed that the body weight of Cd-exposed rats significantly decreased and the kidney coefficient increased. In addition, Cd significantly increased the contents of Blood Urea Nitrogen, Creatinine and Uric acid. Cd also increased the glutathione and malondialdehyde contents in renal tissues. The pathological section showed that Cd can cause pathological damages such as narrow lumen and renal interstitial congestion. Cd-induced apoptosis of kidney, which could activate the mRNA and protein expression levels of Cyt-c, Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 were significantly increased. Conversely, Que significantly reduces kidney damage caused by Cd. Kidney pathological damage was alleviated by Que. Que inhibited Cd-induced apoptosis and decreased Cyt-c, Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 proteins and mRNA expression levels. To sum up, Cd can induce kidney injury and apoptosis of renal cells, while Que can reduce Cd-induced kidney damage by reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting apoptosis. These results provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of Que in the prevention and treatment of cadmium poisoning.

Heteroatom-doped carbon materials derived from oil-bearing sludge exhibit excellent supercapacitor performance due to their unique electronic and chemical properties. However, the complex composition of heteroatoms in oil-bearing sludge makes it difficult to achieve sufficient and directional doping by direct pyrolysis . In this paper, an oleic acid pretreatment-roasting-secondary activation strategy was developed to make full use of hydrocarbons, iron- and nitrogen-containing compounds in oil-bearing sludge to prepare Fe-N X -C materials with excellent electrochemical properties. Characterization results such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and N 2 adsorption analysis showed that the best sample had a hierarchical pore structure and uniform Fe and N element loading. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis found that the addition of oleic acid can promote the formation of Fe-Nx, and the dosage of oleic acid will affect the content of Fe-Nx in the carbon materials. Electrochemical characterization of this supercapacitor material was conducted. The best sample's specific capacitance was as high as 293.6 F g −1 at the current density of 0.5 A g −1 , and the capacitance retention rate could still reach 71.5% at the current density of 10 A g −1 . The assembled button-type symmetrical supercapacitors had an energy density of 8.68 Wh kg −1 and a power density of 137.53 W kg −1 , which is much higher than those of most other waste-based carbon materials. This work presents a new idea for the preparation of heteroatom doped carbon materials with excellent capacitive properties from oily sludge, which provides a new reference for the treatment and resource utilization of oily sludge.

For the first time, the present work reports the dielectric properties and electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbing performance of polymer-derived carbon-rich NbC-SiC-C nanocomposites. In our previous work, NbC-SiC-C nanocomposites with the ultra-high temperature ceramic phase NbC as the main phase were synthesized with the allylhydridopolycarbosilane (AHPCS) and niobium pentachloride (NbCl 5 ) as starting materials. On this basis, divinyl benzene was chosen as carbon-rich source and introduced into the AHPCS and NbCl 5 to form a single-source-precursor. Finally, carbon-rich NbC-SiC-C nanocomposites were successfully synthesized by polymer-derived ceramic approach. Compared with ceramic samples without Nb and with lower carbon content, the carbon-rich NbC-SiC-C nanocomposites show extremely enhanced EMW absorbing performance with minimum reflection coefficient of −51.1 dB at 6.88 GHz for the thickness of 2.27 mm. As a consequence, the resultant carbon-rich NbC-SiC-C nanocomposite has to be considered as structure&function integrated material with excellent EMW absorption performance, which can be applied in hostile environment.

A chemical reduction route was designed to prepare flexible and free standing 3D-rGO porous sponges embedded Sn nanospheres (3D-rGO/Sn). It is revealed the relation between phase composition and contact and charge-transfer resistances. The structural and interfacial stabilization of 3D-rGO/Sn through Sn-C chemical bonds can effectively preserve the isolated Sn nanospheres from detaching, and enhance the charge transfer. Simultaneously, Sn nanosphere wrapped by thin graphene layers could alleviate the large stress generated from the volume expansion of Sn. Finally, for lithium-ion batteries, the optimal 3D-rGO/Sn anode exhibited an excellent cycling stability performance and rate performance compared to Sn nanospheres and the mixture of 3D-rGO and Sn.

A novel Calcium-loaded catalyst (Ca-C/Al 2 O 3 ) was prepared with a facile impregnation method, using polyethyleneimine (PEI)-polydopamine (PDA) as a coating agent and Al 2 O 3 as supporter. The prepared Ca-C/Al 2 O 3 catalyst showed a higher treatment performance for high salt organic wastewater, and removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) was enhanced from 32.5% to 64.4% comparing with single ozonation. Besides, it also showed a good catalytic performance comparing with other catalysts reported in different literature. Catechol groups and reactive amine groups in the PEI-PDA coating worked as anchoring points for metal ions, facilitating the formation of dispersed calcium sites (Ca-O and Ca-N). Calcium sites and different types of nitrogen (graphite nitrogen, pyrrolic nitrogen, and pyridinic nitrogen) were identified as the active sites for the catalytic reaction. The analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and radical quenching tests revealed that hydroxyl radical (•OH) and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) were the reactive oxygen species (ROS) for treatment of high salt organic wastewater. According to the above results, the prepared Ca-C/Al 2 O 3 catalysts showed a good catalytic permanence and used for advanced treatment of high salt organic wastewater.

Herein, we report a simple synthesis of PtNiCo trimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) loaded on carbon black (PtNiCo/C) via ambient-temperature chemical reduction and galvanic replacement reaction. The influence of thermal treatment temperature in 10 %H 2 /N 2 on PtNiCo NPs in PtNiCo/C-X nanostructures is revealed, where, X = 200 °C, 500 °C. XRD, XPS, TEM, HAADF-STEM, HRTEM, STEM-EDX elemental line-scanning (mapping), HS-LEIS, H 2 -TPR, atomic resolution aberration-corrected STEM (AC-STEM), XANES and EXAFS have been employed to characterize various nanostructures of PtNiCo NPs in PtNiCo/C-X. We established the relationship of nanostructure-reducing temperature thus catalytic behavior of PtNiCo/C-X: PtNiCo/C-200 ∼ Pt island (single atom and cluster)-on-NiCo alloy NP, PtNiCo/C-500 ∼ PtNiCo alloy NPs. PtNiCo/C-200 provides much improved catalytic activity and selectivity to target products ( NO 2 group hydrogenation) as compared to PtNiCo/C-500 for nitroarenes selective hydrogenation under mild reaction conditions (1.0 MPa-H 2 pressure, 18 °C or 40 °C-reaction temperature). That is considered to be closely correlated with the synergy effect of Pt islands and NiCo alloy nanoparticles in PtNiCo/C-200.

In this study, the S modified iron-based catalyst (S-Fe@C) for activating peroxydisulfate (PDS) was fabricated by heating the S-MIL-101 (Fe) precursor at 800 °C. The resulted S-Fe@C composite mainly consisted of carbon, Fe 0 , FeS, FeS 2 , and Fe 3 O 4 , and showed strong magnetism. Compared with Fe@C obtained from MIL-101 (Fe), the S-Fe@C exhibited much higher performance (1.5 times larger) on PDS activation and the S-Fe@C/PDS could rapidly degrade various organic pollutants in 5 min under the attack of the species of SO 4 - · , 1 O 2 , electro-transfer and Fe(IV). The S element in enhancing the PDS activation mainly involved two mechanisms. Firstly, the doped S could speed up the electron transfer efficiency, resulting in a promotion on PDS decomposition; secondly, the S 2- S 2 2- or S 0 could achieve the circulation of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ , leading to the formation of non-radicals Fe(IV) and 1 O 2 .

Toxic dyes in wastewater will become a significant hazard to human health if they are not treated effectively. Therefore, it is significant to separate and remove dyes from the aqueous solution. C and O co-doped BN (BCNO) with high adsorption capacity and outstanding cycle efficiency is a simple and efficient adsorbent for the cationic dye malachite green (MG). Glucose is characterized as an eco-friendly and cheap source of C and O. Benefited by the high specific surface area (1515.6 m 2 /g), the maximum adsorption capacity of MG is 1511.1 mg/g. Besides, the curves of adsorption fitting correspond to the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order model, respectively. Moreover, after 5 cycles, the adsorption efficiency reached 78% of the first time and the adsorption capacity remained above 780 mg/g. Furthermore, in the selectivity adsorption study, the cationic dyes (MG, neutral red (NR), methylene blue (MB)) can be removed more effectively in the binary dye system of MG-methyl orange (MO), NR-MO, MB-MO, MG-Orange II (OR), MB-OR, or NR-OR. BCNO-2 has a promising application in the removal of cationic dyes from complex dye wastewaters.

Utilizing halide perovskites for photocatalytic aromatic C( sp 3 ) H bond activation remains a great challenge due to the serious recombination of photogenerated charge carriers and slow reaction dynamics of the materials themselves. Herein, a lead-free perovskite-based hybrid of Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 /g-C 3 N 4 nanosheet is constructed and applied for photocatalytic aromatic C( sp 3 ) H bond activation, which shows enhanced photocatalytic performance. By introducing ultrathin g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets as the heterogeneous nucleation sites, size-reduced and well-dispersed Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 nanocrystals can be obtained. The as-formed close contact and high-quality heterointerface between Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 and g-C 3 N 4 provides pathways for fast charge transfer which is beneficial to improve the separation efficiency of photogenerated electron−hole pairs. Under visible light irradiation, the Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 /g-C 3 N 4 hybrid photocatalyst can effectively oxidize toluene toward benzaldehyde and benzyl alcohol with a total conversion rate of 8346.8 μmol g −1 h −1 , which is 26.6- and 6.0-fold that of pure g-C 3 N 4 and Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 , respectively. This work demonstrates the potential of all-inorganic lead-free halide perovskite-based heterostructures for photocatalytic organic reactions.
