Nickel-rich cathode materials, owing to their high energy density and low cost, are considered to be one of the cathodes with the most potential in next-generation lithium-ion batteries. Unfortunately, this kind of cathode with highly active surface is easy to react with H 2 O and CO 2 when exposed to ambient air, resulting in the formation of lithium impurities and interfacial phase transition as well as deterioration of the electrochemical properties. In this work, the evolution mechanism of the structure and interface of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 during air-exposure is systematically investigated. Furthermore, a facile reviving strategy is proposed to restore the degraded LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 by using LiPO 3 as the repair agent. The lithium impurities on the surface of the degraded sample can transform into the repair/coating layer, and part of the rock salt phase on the subsurface can revive to layered phase after repair heat treatment. As a result, the optimized cathode delivers an initial discharge capacity of 198.3 mAh g −1 at 0.1C and a capacity retention of 85.5% after 50 cycles. Although slightly lower than the bare sample (201 mAh g −1 and 88%), they are obviously higher than the exposed samples (166.5 mAh g −1 and 40.4%). The regenerated electrochemical properties should be attributed to the multifunctional repair layer that can efficiently reduce the surface lithium impurities, prevent the corrosion of electrolyte, and improve the interfacial Li + diffusion kinetics. This work can effectively reduce the waste of the degraded Ni-rich ternary materials and realize the transformation of “waste” into wealth.

A simple and reliable method was proposed for rapid detecting ciprofloxacin, based on molecularly imprinted technology. The molecularly imprinted ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CPX) sensor was prepared by electropolymerization of pyrrole (Py) and o-phenylenediamine (o-PD) on the pencil graphite electrode (PGE). The performance of the sensor was characterized by square wave voltammetry (SWV) using potassium ferricyanide as molecular probe. Under optimal conditions, the sensor displayed high selectivity and stability towards CPX. A linear relationship between the change in current (Δi) and the logarithm of CPX concentrations from 1×10 −9 to 1×10 −3 mol/L was obtained with a detection limit of 7.58×10 −11 mol/L (S/N=3). Furthermore, the MIP sensor was applied for the analysis of real tablet samples with high accuracies.

Novel delivery systems for epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) were developed using broccoli by-products and their fractions as carriers. Puree and pomace from broccoli by-products had higher adsorption capacities for EGCG than juice at 25 °C (43.20 mg g −1 , 39.47 mg g −1 and 25.22 mg g −1 dry weight for pomace, puree and juice respectively). Chemical sorption is the rate-controlling step for EGCG-broccoli interactions. Langmuir and Freundlich models well described the adsorption of EGCG onto puree and pomace. FTIR results indicated that EGCG-puree had stronger interaction than EGCG-pomace. When the same level of EGCG (∼26 mg) was added to different matrices, more EGCG (∼20%) was recovered from the in vitro digestion system of EGCG-loaded puree than from the EGCG-loaded pomace (14%) and neat EGCG (9%). The antioxidant capacity of the whole digesta was positively correlated with the EGCG levels. Broccoli by-products are promising carriers for delivering and stabilizing EGCG through gastrointestinal digestion.

A series of luminescent polymers are synthesized by incorporating rare earth complex units into polymer matrices. Firstly, we functionalize the selected polymer matrices with the imidazolium moieties, and then introduce the rare earth tetrakis(β-diketonate) complexes into polymer matrices through a mild anion exchange method. The resulting materials are characterized by FTIR, XRD, EDAX, SEM, thermogravimetric analysis, luminescence excitation spectra and emission spectra, luminescence lifetime measurements and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectra. The photoluminescence measurements indicate that all these rare earth complex functionalized polymers exhibit a characteristic luminescence emission originating from the corresponding rare earth ions. Among the hybrids, the europium tetrakis(TTA) complex functionalized polymers show remarkable luminescence quantum yields and relatively long 5 D 0 lifetimes at room temperature.

Carbon dioxide, being one of the major greenhouse gases responsible for global warming, its atmospheric level grows ever faster since the beginning of industrial era. Great efforts have been devoted to developing versatile technologies/processes to adjust and manipulate the rapid growth of CO 2 emission. Besides CO 2 capture and storage/sequestration (CCS) to control its emission, chemical utilization of the captured CO 2 (CCU) emerges to be a rational technique for economical benefits as well as environmental concerns. As for the aim of CO 2 utilization, an environmentally benign CO 2 /water reversible acidic system was developed for the copper (II)-catalyzed selective oxybromination of electron-rich aromatics without the need of any conventional acid additive and organic solvent. Notably, up to 95% yields of the bromination products were attained with good regio-selectivity when cupric bromide was used as the catalyst and lithium bromide as a cheap and easy handling bromine source under supercritical CO 2 . The catalytic system worked well for electron-rich aromatics including ethers, sulfides and mesitylene. Carbonic acid in situ formed from CO 2 and water is supposed to act as the proton donator in the Brønsted acid-promoted reaction. Notably, CO 2 in this study serves as a reaction medium and a promoter in conjunction with water and also provides safe environment for aerobic reactions. Given with excellent reaction efficiency as well as no need of neutralization disposal, this process thus represents an environmentally friendly approach for aerobic bromination of aromatics with essential reduction of CO 2 emission as well as an economically beneficial way for application of captured CO 2 .

The polymethacrylimide/silicate (PMI/silicate) composites were successfully prepared from the monomers of acrylonitrile (AN) and methacrylic acid (MAA) via the monomer in situ intercalation polymerization and free foaming. The formation of imide groups was monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results of FTIR and XPS indicated that the imide groups were gradually formed and cyano groups were dwindling but still existed during foaming and thermal treatment. The thermogravimetric analysis results revealed that the thermal stability of the PMI/silicate composites was improved, the rate of thermal degradation was reduced, and the residue was increased because of the addition of silicates. The results of dynamic mechanical analysis revealed that the rigidity and the glass transition temperature of the composites were improved. The limit oxygen index (LOI) and cone calorimeter (CONE) test showed that the fire-retardant properties were improved because of the barrier effect of silicates. The cell morphologies of the PMI/silicate composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the results showed that the silicate particles were distributed on the cell walls, but the cells slightly cracked. The mechanical properties were measured by tensile, flexural, and compressive strength. The mechanical strength, especially flexural strength, was significantly improved. The flexural strength of PMI/MMT, PMI/kaolin, and PMI/talc containing 8 wt% silicates was improved to 172%, 240%, and 233%.

The efficient delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs to the tumor tissues unavoidably encounters numerous obstacles, such as poor tumor targeting capability, slow intracellular drug release and massive accumulation in the liver. In this study, by self-assembling methoxy poly (ethylene glycol)-poly (lactide) block copolymer (mPEG-PLA) and hyaluronic acid-paclitaxel conjugate (HA-PTX), the composite nanoparticles (mPPHP NPs) were fabricated for efficient therapy of cancer. mPPHP NPs formed self-assembled nanoparticles (116 nm in diameter) with a narrow size distribution; and showed a rapid release of PTX in the presence of hyaluronidase and esterase . mPPHP NPs exhibited enhanced internalization by cells via CD44 receptors and selected cytotoxicity against A549 cells in vitro . More importantly, compared with other PTX formulations, mPPHP NPs were demonstrated to present the reduced liver accumulation, excellent tumor-targeting ability and superior antitumor efficacy in vivo , with a TIR of 75.9%. The multifunctional composite nanoparticles could be developed as a promising nano-carrier for improved therapeutic efficacy.

The exploration of methods to produce biomaterials with antibacterial properties in ultra-small scales is of great scientific and technological interest. Here, we reported a microfluidic spinning approach to prepare a novel film combined with konjac glucomannan (KGM), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). The film was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. This film was transparent, orderly, thermally stable, and uniform in size, with an average width less than 1 μm. Also, the film exhibited excellent antibacterial efficiency (97.1% against E. coli , 99.7% against S. aureus , 97.3% against S. enterica and 99.9% against B. subtilis ) in our antibacterial test. In addition, the film promoted wound healing with the advanced development of neovascularization and hair follicles. This strategy provides a facile and green pathway for the construction of biomaterial films for medical applications.

The compatibility between polypyrrole (PPy) and waterborne epoxy coating (EP) remains the main challenge. Here, phosphorylated poly (vinyl alcohol) (PPVA) and p-toluene sulfonic acid sodium (p-TSA) were simultaneously utilized as dopants to modify PPy and prepare water dispersible PPVA/p-TSA/PPy (PPVAT/PPy) solution. Additionally, poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and TSA were also adopted to prepare PVA/p-TSA/PPy (PVAT/PPy) for comparison. Denser film with granular morphology was observed for PPVAT/PPy nanocomposite film. Compared with PVAT/PPy-40 %, the tensile strength of PPVAT-8.0 %/PPy-40 % increased from 248.8–283.9 MPa. PPVAT/PPy displayed higher compatibility and interactions with EP compared to PPy-TSA and PVAT/PPy. Compared with EP, the impedance modulus of PVAT/PPy+EP and PPVAT/PPy+EP increased from 3.17×10 5 to 1.07×10 8 and 1.62×10 9 Ω·cm 2 ; corrosion current density I corr decreased from 1.49×10 −6 to 7.72×10 -8 and 4.01×10 -9 A·cm -2 ; corrosion potential E corr displayed a positive shift of 230 mV and 269 mV, respectively. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of PPVAT/PPy+EP reached 99.83 %, which is much higher than that of PVAT/PPy+EP (93.97 %). PPVAT/PPy+EP nanocomposite coating has been proved to have preferable long-term corrosion resistance based on electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS), polarization curves and salt water spray test. The simultaneous incorporation of phosphate anions, sulfate ions and PPy into EP was beneficial to fabricate high-performance anticorrosion coating.

Planar perovskite solar cells (PSCs) based on CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3- x (SCN) x (SCN: thiocyanate) active layer and low-temperature processed TiO 2 films are fabricated by a sequential two-step method in ambient air. Here, alkali thiocyanates (NaSCN, KSCN) are added into Pb(SCN) 2 precursor to improve the microstructure of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3- x (SCN) x perovskite layers and performance of the as-prepared PSCs. At the optimum concentrations of alkali thiocyanates as additives, the as-prepared NaSCN-modified and KSCN-modified PSCs demonstrate the efficiencies of 16.59% and 15.63% respectively, being much higher than 12.73% of the reference PSCs without additives. This improvement is primarily ascribed to the enhanced electron transport , reduced recombination rates and much improved microstructures with large grain size and low defect density at grain boundaries. Importantly, it is revealed that the modified PSCs at the optimized concentrations of alkali thiocyanates additives exhibit remarkably improved stability than the reference PSCs against humid circumstance, and a continuous exposure to humid air without encapsulation over 45 days only records about 5% degradation of the efficiency. These findings provide a facile approach to fabricate efficient and stable PSCs by low processing temperature in ambient air, both of which are highly preferred for future practical applications of PSCs.

A new complex rare earth borate K7PbLu2B15O30 was prepared by the spontaneous crystallization method. K7PbLu2B15O30 is crystallized in the chiral trigonal space group R32 with cell parameters a = b = 13.0893(3) Å, c = 15.2379(6) Å, α = β = 90°, γ = 120°, and Z = 3. The basic structure of the crystal can be seen as composed of B5O10 groups and LuO6 polyhedra sharing oxygen atoms, while K+ and Pb2+ fill the space to balance the charge. The UV transmission cut-off edge of K7PbLu2B15O30 was less than 300 nm, and the powder SHG response was roughly 1.1 times that of KDP. Furthermore, a first-principles analysis was performed to see more about the relationship between the crystal structure and optical characteristics.

The exploration of stable/efficient phosphor for n -UV chip pumped white light-emitting diodes ( w LEDs) remains an arduous task. Herein, a novel series of color tunable Eu 2+ /Tb 3+ /Sm 3+ tridoped Sc-based cyclosilicate phosphors (KBaScSi 3 O 9 : Eu 2+ /Tb 3+ /Sm 3+ ) have successfully designed and obtained via facile solid-state reaction based on comprehensive consideration of rigidly structural network of host, weak electron-phonon coupling strength and spectral adjustability of codopants via energy transfer (ET). The crystallographic occupancies of Eu, Tb and Sm primary in Ba/K, Ba and Ba sites in the monoclinic host, respectively were determined on the basis of the Rietveld refinements and crystal chemistry rules. The photoluminescence (PL) properties were systematically investigated in conjunction with structural analyses, implying that the ‘warm’ white light with excellent thermal stability is stemmed from combination of optimized blue (Eu 2+ ), green (Tb 3+ ) and red (Sm 3+ ) emissions via Eu → Tb → Sm ET strategy. Interestingly, Tb ions play both roles of green light luminescent center and ET bridge to achieve cascade ET for connecting Eu/Sm ion pairs because of the adverse metal-metal charge transfer (MMCT) effect (Eu 2+ + Sm 3+ → Eu 3+ + Sm 2+ ). Furthermore, the phosphor-converted w LEDs (pc- w LEDs), by encapsulating the optimal KBS: 4 %Eu/4 %Tb/6 %Sm with commercial n -UV LED chip, show high thermal stability with satisfactory electroluminescence (EL) performances. These results indicate the KBS: Eu/Tb/Sm phosphors are potential candidates for application in high power n -UV pumped pc- w LEDs.
