Novel monomer TPACz containing carbazole and triphenylamine active groups was synthesized. P(TPACz)/WO 3 coralloid porous electrochromic electrode material were prepared by electropolymerization . The P(TPACz)/WO 3 coralloid porous composite electrode material exhibited independent electrochromic properties in the positive potential range (0−1.7 V) (yellow at neutral state and blue at oxidation state) and negative potential range (−1.8−0 V) with the color of the film changing from yellow to dark blue. At the same time, the electrochemical properties of P(TPACz)/WO 3 composite material ware tested. It is noteworthy that the P(TPACz)/WO 3 coralloid porous electrochromic composite electrode materials exhibit both n-type and p-type doped electrochemical properties . Especially, P(TPACz)/WO 3 exhibit excellent capacitive properties in the n-doped state. According to its GCD curve of P(TPACz)/WO 3 nanocomposite electrode material, the area ratio capacitance is 1.94 mF cm −2 in the positive potential window of 0−0.8 V. And the area ratio capacitance is 33.3 mF cm −2 in the negative potential window of −1.8−0 V. Therefore, the design and effects of the nanocomposite material can broaden application range of electrochromic electrode materials and provide new strategies for energy saving material design.

As a successful alternative to the complex and dangerous anthraquinone process, a simple and safe method for the efficient preparation of hydrogen peroxide is to use the electrochemical two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e− ORR) process. Herein, we report a facile approach to achieving metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon material electrocatalysts (N-CMCs) using cheap and easily available raw materials, which also have an excellent electrochemical 2e− ORR catalytic performance and selectivity for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The as-fabricated nitrogen-doped carbon material electrocatalysts (named as N-CMC-1 : 5) deliver the high H2O2 selectivity of over 80% in a wide potential range from 0.30 to 0.70 V vs. RHE, where the highest H2O2 selectivity can reach 81.4% at 0.42 V vs. RHE. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical analyses reveal that the content of pyrrolic-N in the catalysts has a positive effect on the 2e− ORR activity. When the catalyst contains more pyrrolic-N, the catalyst demonstrates a better 2e− ORR performance and H2O2 selectivity in alkaline medium, as well as the long-term stability of the catalyst.

Burning oxygenated hydrocarbon biofuels in engines is a viable path for saving energy and reducing carbon emissions. N-butanol and biodiesel are two representative biofuels and have attracted widespread interest. In this study, the blends of n-butanol and biodiesel (a waste cooking oil) with different n-butanol ratios (40%, 60%, 80% by volume) were adopted to study their autoignition characteristics in a newly developed ultrahigh-pressure rapid compression machine. The ignition delay times of the blends were precisely measured under wide pressures of 10/20/40/60 bar, equivalence ratios of 0.3/0.5/1.0, and a temperature range of 700–970 K. Experimental results show that the ignition delay time decreases with the increase of pressure and equivalence ratio at the investigated conditions regardless the blending ratios. It is also found that the ignition delay time becomes slightly longer with the increasing n-butanol ratio in the blends at temperatures below 820 K. However, as the temperature further increases, the ignition delay times of different blends get closer and has a crossover tendency. The composition of the biodiesel was quantitively analyzed and a surrogate fuel was developed. An optimized mechanism was proposed based on a documented detailed mechanism with 461 species and 18,217 reactions. Simulation results show that the optimized mechanism better captures the dependence of the measured ignition delay times on temperature, pressure, and blending ratios over the entire temperature range compared to the original mechanism. In the end, species evolution and sensitivity analysis were performed sequentially with the optimized mechanism to give kinetics insight into the chemical interaction between biodiesel and n-butanol. The experimental data and modeling results reported here provide a basis for understanding the combustion reaction kinetics of biodiesel/n-butanol blending fuels .

Carbon-based adsorption and TiO 2 -based photocatalysis are both safe and low-cost ways of pollutant purification. Constructing C-TiO 2 architectures can effectively improve removal efficiency. However, most of those carbon frames only acted as supporting substrates, exhibiting rather limited synergistic action from TiO 2 and carbon. Herein, Fe/N co-doped nano-TiO 2 wrapped on mesoporous carbon spheres with a core-shell structure was designed. The Fe, N co-doped carbon sphere with a hierarchical structure improved the synergy of adsorption and transfer during the photocatalytic process. Without extra dopant, the Fe and N partly exposed on the surface realized the in-situ migrating into the TiO 2 shell to enhance the interface effect, which significantly promoted the photocatalytic efficiency of the composite. Furthermore, the photocatalytic efficiency of the composite was investigated through two typical pollutants under visible-light irradiation. The degradation efficiencies for rhodamine B and paraxylene were 96.2% in 60 min and 94.1% in 20 min, respectively, with the apparent rate constant of 0.045 min –1 and 0.049 min –1 , 8.3 and 11.4 times of that for bare TiO 2 . The composite is likely advantageous for treating diverse environmental pollutants.

Room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) N-doped carbon-dots (CNDs) featuring eco-friendliness, low cost and high biocompatibility, are ideal photodynamic antibacterial and anticancer nanomaterials. However, the existing CNDs are limited by low singlet oxygen (1O2) quantum yield, which has become a bottleneck in the development of CNDs. One basic reason is the short T1-state exciton lifetime of CNDs. Herein, triethylenetetramine hexaacetic acid was used to synthesize CNDs via a one-step hydrothermal method. CNDs are characterized with low toxicity, high biocompatibility and ultralong-lifetime RTP (URTP). In addition to the URTP (average lifetime 414 ms) under solid conditions, CNDs even had URTP (average lifetime 320 ms) in a water environment. The ultralong T1 exciton lifetime largely extends the collision time between T1 state excitons and O2 and prolongs the energy transfer time, not only improving the quantum yield (0.63) of singlet oxygen (1O2) in solution, but also facilitating the photodynamic antibacterial and anticancer effects.

N-doped mesoporous carbon has been used as an efficient metal-free catalyst for hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) removal. Traditional synthesis methods for mesopore usually are expensive, corrosive, not eco-friendly, and less N-functional groups remained, leading to the poor removal efficiency for H 2 S. This study provides a facile and green synthesis of N-doped interconnected mesoporous biochars (HNBCs) designed from waste biomass with the cross-linked lignin self-template removed by H 2 O 2 . Compared with those without H 2 O 2 (NPC), HNBCs exhibited higher mesopores volume and more basic sites, i.e., pyridinic N (PdN), pyrrolic N (PyN), -C O, and π-π*, which worked as the main active sites. As a result, adding H 2 O 2 increased the breakthrough sulfur capacity to 181 mg/g for HNBC prepared from cypress sawdust, which was about 5 times that without H 2 O 2 (37 mg/g). The desulfurization and regeneration performance were highly related to the cross-linked mesoporous structure and basic sites on the HNBC. This self-template removing method could easily extend to other waste biomass containing lignin and provide an insight into the advantages of efficient biomass self-structure utilization in the biochar designed properly.

Electrospinning is one of the attractive technologies for fabrication carbon-based fibers due to its high efficiency, component controllability and functionalities. Here, a multi-step strategy was used for the efficient synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) MOF-derived C@Co/N-doped carbon@polypyrrole (C@Co/NC@PPy) composite fibers . The composite fibers synthesized by introducing the electrospinning method possessed unique structural anisotropy and multiple absorption mechanisms. The electromagnetic parameters , the absorption performance and the internal mechanisms of samples were thoroughly illustrated. By adjusting the filler loadings of samples, the electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption could be optimized. The C@Co/NC@PPy with 35 wt% filler loading showed the optimal performance. Impressively, with a thickness of merely 1.65 mm, the C@Co/NC@PPy composite fibers delivered high performance with the minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of -72.14 dB. Correspondingly, the maximum effective absorption bandwidth (EAB max ) could reach 5.6 GHz with the thickness of 1.88 mm. Furthermore, the 35 wt% loading C@Co/NC@PPy composite fibers could reach 14.28 GHz (89.25% of 2–18 GHz) effective absorption, showing the ultrawide absorption. Those positive results forcefully verified that the 1D MOF-derived C@Co/NC@PPy composites showed great potential and superiority as EMW absorption material .

Chemical fixation of CO 2 with epoxides is an effective option to achieve sustainable synthesis of cyclic organic carbonates. Although metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising catalysts for this reaction, their low stability in aqueous solutions makes this application infeasible. In an effort to overcome this limitation, cobalt-based metal–organic framework (Co(II)MOF) nanoribbons have been prepared by coordinating the Co(II) ions with a new ligand (C 16 H 12 N 4 O 4 ) full of oxygen and nitrogen moieties. Strong chemical interactions occur between the adsorbed CO 2 and oxygen/nitrogen atoms in this porous MOF structure. Co(II)-MOF nanoribbons with tetra- n -butylammonium bromide acted as cocatalysts with ∼97% yield of cyclic carbonate (reaction kinetic rate of 14.7 × 10 6 µmol g -1 h −1 ) upon the cycloaddition of epichlorohydrin (ECH) to CO 2 (>99% reaction selectivity under solvent-free reaction condition at 80 °C, 3 h and 1 MPa CO 2 pressure). This work may open a new avenue for chemical fixation of CO 2 by rational design of the components and morphology of MOF-based catalysts.

Here, a simple and green synthesis process of Fe/N-codoped reduced graphene oxide (Fe-N-C/NG) with high electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is reported. The synthesis of 3D porous structure of Fe-N-C/NG composites involves thermal drying the mixture of graphene oxide (GO), iron nitrate and aspartic acid (Asp) directly, follow by pyrolysis the mixture. The Asp is introduced as an environment-friendly nitrogen and carbon source, and the iron nitrate serves as the pore-forming agent and a gas producer that prevents the agglomeration of graphene. The as-prepared Fe-N-C/NG exhibits 3D loose porous structure with larger specific surface area (245 m 2 g - 1 ). The Fe-NC/NG composite exhibits the onset potential of 0.91 V, a half-wave potential (E 1/2 = 0.83 V), low Tafel slope and four-electron selectivity (n = 3.99) in alkaline solution. Furthermore, the stability test manifests the outstanding stability of Fe-NC/NG electrocatalyst and a superior methanol tolerance than Pt/C electrodes. Particularly, when the prepared Fe-NC/NG-3 catalyst is used as an air electrode catalyst in an assembled Zn-air battery, it exhibits a high specific capacity of 848.2 mAh g Zn -1 and displays more stability than Pt/C. This work provides an effective strategy for preparing high ORR and Zn-air battery performance Fe/N-codoped reduced graphene oxide materials.

Heteroatom-doped carbon materials have been proved as potent catalysts for the remediation of organic contaminants. Herein, molten salt electrolysis (MSE) was employed to convert waste eggshell and Co 3 O 4 into N, P, S tri-doped core–shell catalyst (Co@NPSC), achieving the conversion of waste eggshell into value-added materials. Impressively, Co@NPSC/peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system exhibited an exceptional ultra-high turnover frequency (TOF) value of 83.86 min −1 for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation with a low catalyst dosage of 0.001 g L –1 . Subsequently, density functional theory (DFT) simulation clarified the synergistic essences of catalytic oxidation (i.e., the Co@NPSC catalyst reduced the adsorption energy of PMS molecular on its surface, reduced itself work function, enhanced the length of the O-O bond ( I O-O ) of PMS molecule, and facilitated electron transfer for PMS activation). In addition, both theoretical predictions and acute toxicity assay results indicated that the degradation of SMX equals detoxification. This work provides a new insight into the reutilization of waste eggshell and the design of heteroatom-doped core–shell catalysts.

TiO2is widely used for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater, but the practical applications of the photocatalyst are limited due to its poor visible light absorption and low recovery rate. In this study, high production of nitrogen-doped TiO2was achieved by a hydrolysis precipitation method; the obtained N-TiO2had a small crystallite size and good dispersibility. The effect of calcining temperature on the photocatalytic performance of N-TiO2was evaluated through the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in a blue light LED irradiation cylinder, it was found the N-TiO2calcined at 400 °C showed the best photocatalytic activity. Then the N-TiO2was immobilized on SiC ceramic foam by dip-coating with PVA as the binder. The prepared N-TiO2/SiC foam showed excellent photocatalytic activity under blue light LED irradiation; as high as 96.3% of MB was degraded at optimum conditions. After five cycles of MB photodegradation, the photocatalytic activity of N-TiO2/SiC foam only changed slightly, which makes it a promising photocatalytic material for wastewater treatment.Keywords:nitrogen-doped TiO2;SiC foam;LED irradiation;photodegradation;methylene blue

The modification of photocatalyst was the vital task for improving photocatalytic performance. Inspired by multi-level effect and activation regions of N atom, multi-level bismuth-based spheres (Bi2Ti2O7) and N-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQD) were constructed for the photocatalytic application. Experiments demonstrated that the N-GQD/Bi2Ti2O7 multi-level spheres showed higher photocatalytic performance due to the multi-level effect and activation regions. Meanwhile, a series of characterizations proved that the separation efficiency of electron–hole pairs was improved after the N-GQD modifications. A possible mechanism was proposed for investigating N-GQD/Bi2Ti2O7 materials in the photocatalytic field.
