Efficient, flexible, thin, and easy processing electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance materials attract attention to prevent increasingly electromagnetic pollution. Herein, we fabricated multiple spatial-scale conductive frameworks containing tantalum carbide (TaC) nanoparticles by electrospinning and high-temperature pyrolysis. The electrospun composite fabrics possess outstanding properties such as an excellent tensile strength of 9.5 MPa and excellent flexibility. Furthermore, the TaC nanoparticles with appropriate concentration can interconnect with each other endowing the composite fabrics with high electrical conductivity of 10.4 S cm −1 . It also has great EMI SE of up to 37.7 dB in X band with only 0.2 mm thickness, and the SSE/t values of 4290.1 dB cm 2 g −1 . Owing to its pore structure, the shielding mechanism is mainly based on reflection and the finite element simulation further visually confirmed the excellent shielding capabilities. This novel electrospun composite fabrics have a great potential to be applied in fields of aerospace, and electronic devices.

Tuning of the metal–metal/oxide interaction is a vital route to enhance the performance of the supported catalysts. In this study, a Cu/Zn bimetallic MOFs was synthesized through a simple solvothermal method by using an adenine rigid biomolecule acted as organic linker. Furthermore, a ZnO/nitrogen-doped carbon composite supported Cu catalyst (named as Cu-ZnO/NC-BMOFs) derived from the bimetallic CuZn-MOFs was obtained via one-pot pyrolysis method. The developed Cu-ZnO/NC-BMOFs catalyst was tested for hydrogenation-amination tandem reaction. The bimetallic CuZn-MOFs with the uniformly dispersed Cu and Zn centers acted as a self-sacrificing template, which could facilitate the derived catalyst with strengthened Cu-ZnO interaction, high dispersity, and more N species. All of these advantages give the developed Cu-ZnO/NC-BMOFs catalyst with higher performance in hydrogenation-amination tandem reaction compared with traditional Cu/ZnO/NC-IWI (synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation) catalyst. The Cu-ZnO/NC-BMOFs exhibits good stability for the recycling experiments with a negligible loss in its performance. More importantly, the Cu-ZnO/NC-BMOFs catalyst could convert nitroarenes into the corresponding imines or secondary amines with excellent selectivity (>90.0%). This bimetallic MOFs-derived strategy may provide a way for fabricating NC supported catalysts in other tandem reactions.

Transition metal oxides (TMOs) based compounds are recognized as high-energy anodes in next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their extremely high theoretical capacity. However, the lower intrinsic conductivity , fast fading cyclic stability and dramatic volume expansion during discharge/charge processes greatly hinder the practical application of TMOs as anodes in LIBs. In this study, we have designed and constructed MoO 3 /ZnCo 2 O 4 QDs@C@rGO/MoO 3 (denoted as GMZCO) sandwich-structured hybrid nanocomposites via an effective route, and have proposed the formation mechanism of this unique nanostructured composite on the basis of the systematic results of the microstructures. Due to the unique sandwich structure and the synergistic enhancement effect of the ZnCo 2 O 4 QDs , α-MoO 3 and rGO, the as-constructed GMZCO exhibits the superior electrochemical performances when used as anode for LIBs. The obtained GMZCO can maintain high capacity of 1281 mAh g −1 at 0.2 A g −1 after 300 cycles, and can deliver as high as specific capacity of 913 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 500 cycles, revealing the higher capacity and excellent cyclic stability. What deserves to be mentioned most is that GMZCO can keep a capacity of 541 mAh g −1 after 1400 cycles even at higher current density of 3 A g −1 , having outstanding rate capability. This work paves a novel approach for design TMOs with unique microstructures as a promising anode for the high-performances LIBs.

Lithium borohydride (LiBH 4 ) exhibits poor hydrogen storage reversibility because of phase separation between LiH and B due to foaming during thermal dehydrogenation. Herein, we report that by synthesizing nanostructured LiBH 4 without any supports, the foaming and phase separation can be effectively suppressed, and consequently, the hydrogen storage reversibility of LiBH 4 can be considerably improved. Using a facile single-pot solvothermal approach, a hierarchical porous nanostructured LiBH 4 composed of 50–60 nm-sized primary nanoparticles is synthesized. The resulting neat nano-LiBH 4 reversibly desorbs and absorbs approximately 12 wt% of H at 400 °C and under 100 bar H 2 . The superior hydrogen storage performance is attributed to the effective inhibition of foaming upon heating. The formation of LiH and B prior to melting, which can be associated with the largely reduced particle sizes and porous agglomeration structure, plays a crucial role in suppressing foaming. Our findings offer a new strategy for the preparation of nanoscaled freestanding borohydrides, and also important insights into the development of highly reversible metal borohydrides for hydrogen storage applications.

The development of electrocatalysts for efficient water splitting is a pivotal and challenging task. Transition-metal phosphides (TMPs) have been known as one of the most promising candidates for the efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) due to their favorable intrinsic reactivity. However, structural engineering related to the gas bubbles evolution and tiny regulation of components concerned with the electronic structure remained as a significant challenge that requires further optimization. Herein, the nanoarrays (NAs) composed of ultrasmall Co2P and CoP nanoparticle-embedded N-doped carbon matrix (Co2P&CoP@N–C) are prepared and demonstrated an overpotential of 62.8 ± 4.7 mV at 10 mA cm–2 in 1.0 M KOH. The nanoarray-structured electrocatalyst revealed the superaerophobicity and facilitates the detachment of the in situ formed hydrogen gas bubbles, ensuring abundant catalytic sites and electrode–electrolyte interface for the mass transfer process. The amount of P doping modulated the local electron density around Co and P atoms, which attains a favorable compromise to afford sufficient electrons for the electrocatalysis and inhibit the negative influence of H2 desorption. Significantly, the lowered overpotential induced by the electrocatalyst surface architecture is much stronger than that of the component content and promotes the electrocatalytic activity.

Sodium (Na) metal anode has been considered as the promising candidate for next generation high-energy-density rechargeable batteries such as Na-S, Na-O 2 and Na-CO 2 , owing to its high specific capacity, low electrode potential and low cost. Unfortunately, some intractable problems hinder the practical application, including volume change and dendrite formation induced by inhomogeneous Na nucleation. Herein, 3D carbon cloth (CC) supporting Bi-MOF derived carbon nanosheets containing Bi nanoparticles and carbon shells (CC@Bi@C) were prepared to serve as Na deposition/dissolution hosts, integrating high surface area and favorable sodiophilicity. Due to the existence of Bi sodiophilic sites, Na nucleation and deposition can be induced, rendering uniform and dendrite-free morphology. Moreover, the 3D carbon framework can effectively reduce the current density and uniform distribution of Na + flux, solving the uncontrolled Na dendrite growth. As a result, the CC@Bi@C||Na half cell operating at 1 mA cm −2 for 1 mA h cm −2 exhibits 99.85% Coulombic efficiency for nearly 500 cycles. The symmetric cell maintains stable cycle for more than 300 h at 2 mA cm −2 for 2 mA h cm −2 with low overpotential. When paired a full cell with Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 cathode, CC@Bi@C anode exhibits a stable capacity of 103.4 mA h g −1 at 1C (1 C = 117 mA h g −1 ) over 150 cycles for 95.5% capacity retention with high CE of 99.0%. This work provides a facile strategy to inhibit dendrite growth and uniform Na deposition.

Preparation of high-performance composites photocatalysts for organic pollutants degradation is of great significance. In this work, elemental doping was employed to realize the visible-light harvesting and visible-light photocatalysis of the (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 mesocrystals following by introduction of CdS quantum dots (QDs) into layered and poriferous (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets for fabrication of S-scheme charge transfer pathways. In this work, the higher temperatures treatment induced the successful transformation of (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets from Ta 3 AlC 4 MAX. The experimental results also revealed that CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites showed highly enhanced visible-light absorption and visible-light photocatalytic tetracycline degradation performance. The optimal photocatalytic reaction rate constant of the CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 -30% composite reached as high as 0.1117 min −1 , which was approximately 27.24 times of the (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets and 2.43 times of CdS QDs , far better than those of commercial Ta 2 O 5 and pristine Ta 3 AlC 4 . Meanwhile, the prepared CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites were also employed for efficient photodegradation of norfloxacin. Besides, the effects of various experimental parameters, reactive species determination, and band structures were also investigated. The improved visible-light photocatalytic performance of the CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites was mainly attributed to fabrication of S-scheme charge transfer pathways for efficient charge separation.

5- O -Caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA), also known as chlorogenic acid, exhibits various biological activities. Hence the interest in its property change during processing and extraction has increased. The present work studied the influence of ultrasound on the stability of 5-CQA at different pH (pH 4.69, 7.09, 7.69 and 9.22) in water and 50% methanol-water system. Different parameters including solvent, ultrasonic power, time, temperature, duty cycle, and liquid height were investigated during the treatment. Results indicate that ultrasound accelerated the degradation of 5-CQA. Based on Weibull model, the degradation kinetics were described. The rate constant ( k ) of the degradation increased with the increasing pH, demonstrating the alkali sensitivity of 5-CQA. The isomerization of 5-CQA to 3- and 4- O -caffeoylquinic acid was found at neutral and alkaline conditions, which was further boosted by ultrasound. The stability of 5-CQA was improved by adding epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and vitamin C (VC) respectively.

Following the guidance of nitrogenase, the natural iron-based catalysts with remarkably high activity in nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) may be a talent option to develop artificial molecular mimics. However, the electrochemical NRR process of iron-based catalysts still suffers from the high overpotential, poor lifespan, and slow reaction kinetics of the hydrogenation process. Through a controllable etching and in-situ carbonating process, a Pt-doped FeP/C hollow nanorod catalysts was fabricated. Driven by the doped Pt atom, the catalyst solves the key kinetic problem about insufficient proton feeding in the process of nitrogen reduction, and actively transfers protons to intermediates of the hydrogenation steps in NRR. Moreover, the as-prepared catalyst presents the highest NH 3 yield value of 10.22 μg h −1 cm −2 among multitudinous Fe based catalysts at lower potential of −0.05 V ( vs . RHE) with an excellent Faraday efficiency (FE) of 15.3 %, which is higher than FeP/C without the Pt-driven proton-feeding effect, and the cathodic current density presents no significant change within 50 h. In addition, the density functional theory (DFT) and Attenuated total reflection surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectrum (ATR-SEIRAS) results verify the reaction path and protons-feeding kinetic process.

Metal, as a high-performance electrode catalyst, is a research hotspot in the construction of a high-performance microbial fuel cell (MFC). However, metal catalyst nanoparticles and their dispersed carriers are prone to aggregation, producing catalytic electrodes with inferior qualities. In this study, Pd is uniformly dispersed on the graphene framework supported by carbon black to form nanocomposite catalysts (Pd/GO-C catalysts). The effect of the palladium loading amount in the catalyst on the catalytic performance of the air cathode was further studied. The optimized metal loading afforded a reduced resistance and improved accessibility of Pd particles for the ORR. The maximum current output of the 0.250 Pd (mg/cm2) MFC was 1645 mA/m2, which is 4.2-fold higher than that of the carbon paper cathode. Overall, our findings provide a novel protocol for the preparation of high-efficient ORR catalyst for MFCs.Keywords:oxygen reduction reaction;microbial fuel cell;air cathode

It is highly desirable to develop all-pH-compatible hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts that can be used universally in a variety of different electrolyzers and operated in different pH conditions, i.e., acid, alkaline, microbial, chlor-alkali, etc. So far, two-dimensional layered MoS2 and Mo-based carbon materials have been regarded as promising pH-universal HER electrocatalysts. 2H-MoS2 as a naturally occurring and thermodynamically favorable phase, yet still suffers from poor HER activity in neutral and alkaline electrolytes. Herein, a hybrid electrocatalyst, i.e., 2H-MoS2/N-doped mesoporous graphene, rich in interfacial Mo–pyridinic N coordination is fabricated. The optimized hybrid catalyst delivers long-term durability and outstanding HER activity with overpotentials of 110, 145, and 142 mV at 10 mA cm–2 in acidic, alkaline, and phosphate buffered solutions (PBS) media, respectively, outperforming most of the previously reported MoS2-based catalysts. Theoretical and experimental results demonstrate that the interfacial pyridinic N has a higher tendency to bond with Mo atoms than pyrrolic and graphitic N, and the edge-Mo coordinated with pyridinic N could serve as HER active sites. DFT calculations further reveal that Mo–pyridinic N coordination modifies the charge density of edge-Mo, in turn optimizing the hydrogen absorption energy and facilitating water dissociation, and thereby significantly promoting the intrinsic catalytic activity for the pH-universal HER process.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) play an important role in the development of tumors by secreting a variety of cytokines or directly communicating with tumor cells, making TAMs-targeted therapeutic strategies very attractive. It has been reported that oncogene c-Myc is related to every aspect of the oncogenic process of tumor cells and the alternative activation of macrophages. Hence, we constructed a glycolipid nanocarrier containing ROS-responsive peroxalate linkages (CSOPOSA) for ROS-triggered release of drugs and further modified it with Ex 26 (Ex 26-CSOPOSA), a selective sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) antagonist, to achieve the dual-targeted delivery of the c-Myc inhibitor JQ1 via S1PR1, which is overexpressed on both tumor cells and TAMs, thereby inducing apoptosis of tumor cells, and blocking M2 polarization of macrophages. More strikingly, our studies found that JQ1 could effectively inhibit the migration of tumor cells induced by M2 macrophages-derived exosomes via blocking Caveolin-1 related intercellular exosome exchange through lncRNA H19 and miR-107. The in vivo results revealed that this dual-targeted delivery strategy effectively inhibited tumor growth and metastasis with less systemic toxicity, providing a potential method for effective tumor treatment.
