Titanosilicate with H 2 O 2 stands out as a highly consequential oxidized catalytic system, prized for its user-friendly operation, mild conditions, and eco-friendly attributes. However, a synthesis strategy for large surface area titanosilicalites approaching the theoretical lowest Si/Ti ratio without extra-framework Ti species remains an ongoing challenge. In this study, we successfully synthesized single-crystalline Ti-rich nanosized aggregated TS-1 by shielding effect with a Si/Ti polymer. This polymer demonstrated effectiveness in restraining TiO 2 species by regulating the proximity of Si/Ti species in Ti-Diol-Si polymers. The polymer not only facilitated the synthesis of single-crystalline Ti-rich TS-1 but also exploited the chain length of PEG, functioning as a shielding cage by hydrogen bonds, to synthesize nanosized aggregated TS-1 (TS-1-PEG400). This TS-1-PEG400 exhibited superior conversion (~60%), selectivity (~90%), and stability in 1-hexene epoxidation. This study not only establishes a synthesis pathway for Ti-rich TS-1 but also holds the potential to enhance related industrial oxidation reactions involving titanosilicates and H 2 O 2 .

Three kinds of Ti-HMS zeolites have been synthesized by using different templates, and their catalytic performance was investigated in deep oxidation-adsorption desulfurization process. Various analysis techniques have been applied to investigate physical and chemical properties of the catalysts. Using cyclohexanone peroxide as an oxidant, the catalytic performance results show that Ti-HMS-12 exhibits highest desulfurization performance (99.9%) without solvents. Dibenzothiophene (DBT) was almost completely oxidized to the more polar DBT sulfone, which could be subsequently adsorbed on the Ti-HMS-12, achieving a unified processes of oxidative-adsorption desulfurization process. Furthermore, the catalyst was recycled for five runs with slight decreases in the catalytic performance and can be easily regenerated by methanol washing.

Inevitable drawbacks on α-Fe 2 O 3 photoanodes , such as poor conductivity, short hole diffusion length , high electron-hole recombination rate, limit their photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance for water oxidation . The construction of heterojunction is an effective approach to improve the PEC performance of photoanodes. Herein, we report the design of the WO 3 /Ti–Fe 2 O 3 heterojunction photoanodes, which are synthesized by two simple hydrothermal method . The optimized WO 3 /Ti–Fe 2 O 3 photoanode shows remarkably improved photocurrent of 2.15 mA/cm 2 at 1.23 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) without additional cocatalyst , which is higher than that of previous literatures. The improvement benefits from reduced charge transfer resistance in the bulk of Ti–Fe 2 O 3 photoanode and improved charge separation efficiency, which can been further confirmed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the transient photovoltage (TPV) and the work function (WF) measurement. The present work also provide new opportunities in developing high performance photoanodes for PEC water splitting .

One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures of ZnO using atomic layer deposition (ALD) on chitosan (CS) modified carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were first introduced onto the surfaces of biomedical implants. When the content of ZnO is not sufficient, CNTs can strengthen the antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus by 8% and 39%, respectively. CS can improve the cytocompatibility of CNTs and ZnO. The amount of Zn content can be controlled by changing the cycling numbers of ALD processes. This hybrid coating can not only endow medical implants with high self-antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) of over 73% and 98%, respectively, but also regulate the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts by controlling the amount of ZnO.

The substantial release of industrial carbon dioxide has been identified as a key factor in the development of various environmental issues. In addressing these concerns, the utilization of photocatalytic technology for carbon reduction has garnered significant attention. The disadvantage of CO2photoreduction is the problem of product yield and selectivity. It is known that MIL-125(Ti) with a high specific surface area (SBET) possesses more active sites using Ti as a node. The calcination of MIL-125(Ti) in a reducing atmosphere has been shown to introduce oxygen vacancies (OV), thereby enhancing the material’s surface and internal pores. This process has been demonstrated to result in a significant increase in the SBETand an enhancement of the Ti3+/Ti4+ratio. The increased Ti3+centers have been found to improve the material’s reducing properties. The results demonstrate that the OV-rich MIL-125-2H material exhibits the high-performance and highly selective photoreduction in CO2.

Regulating the separation and transport capabilities of the photocarriers is an important strategy to enhance corresponding activity of photocatalysts. In this work, novel Ti-MOF/Ti 3 C 2 heterojunction with face-to-face intimate contact was design and synthesized through a hydrothermal assemble route. The negatively charged Ti 3 C 2 not only facile the absorb of Ti nodes but also offer rich nucleation sites for the in-situ growth Ti-MOF. Under visible light irradiation, the optimized TM-0.05 exhibited exceptional photocatalytic activity and reusability during tetracycline photocatalytic degradation process. The rate constant reaches 1.83 × 10 −2 min −1 over TM-0.05, which was 5.3 times and 2.3 times higher than that of sole Ti-MOF and Ti 3 C 2 , respectively. Combined photoelectric characterization confirmed the improved photocatalytic activity was predominantly due to the excellent conductivity of Ti 3 C 2 and the tight interface connection between the two semiconductors, thus accelerating the interfacial charge separation and transport. Scavenger experiments, EPR, and LC-MS analysis confirmed the key role of •O 2 - , •OH and photogenerated holes during tetracycline degradation, and finally a possible mechanism was postulated. This work provides a new approach for constructing MOF/MXene structures via in situ self-assembly strategy, and expand their application in refractory pollutants photocatalytic degradation process.

The magnetic refrigeration is achieved through the magnetocaloric effect of a magnetic system, which is considered a promising technology for achieving the required low temperatures in industry, daily life, and scientific research. This work experimentally investigates the magnetic behavior and magnetocaloric performance of Ho 2 CoMn 1- x Ti x O 6 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) double perovskites. The experimental results reveal that a paramagnetic →ferromagnetic transition characterized by a sharp increase in magnetization is suppressed due to decoupling action of Ti 4+ with 3 d 0 spin configuration. As a result, the transition temperature T C reduces monotonically from 75 K at x = 0–37 K at x = 0.6, and no obvious ferromagnetic transition is identified at x = 0.8–1 due to the lack of Co 2+ –Mn 4+ interactions at so high Ti 4+ substitution concentration. In addition, the magnetocaloric effect is investigated by measuring the isothermal initial magnetization from 4 K to a temperature far above T C . The maximum magnetic entropy ( − Δ S M max ) under Δ H = 6 T does not exhibit significant variation from x = 0 (11.1 J kg −1 K −1 ) to 0.6 (11.5 J kg −1 K −1 ), while it increases noticeably from x = 0.8 (13.9 J kg −1 K −1 ) to 1 (17.2 J kg −1 K −1 ). The present work indicates that the cryogenic magnetocaloric effect can be improved by dilution effect of nonmagnetic ions.

Much attention has been focused on the fabrication of TiO 2 microspheres due to their excellent properties and attractive potential in many fields. Here, undoped 3D hierarchical TiO 2 microspheres (TMS) were synthesized in situ on Ti mesh using a hydrothermal method by varying NaOH concentration, reaction time and temperature. The 3D TMS grown along the surface of the woven wires of the Ti meshes, using the metal Ti meshes as a substrate, which resulted in improved conductivity. Meanwhile, the original Ti mesh with the macroporosity (due to the 15 % open area of the mesh) can act as fast proton mass diffusion. As a result, the flexible TMS-Ti photoelectrodes exhibit an excellent current density of 1.63 mA/cm 2 at a potential of 1.23 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Therefore, the in situ synthesis of TiO 2 microspheres on Ti mesh is highly desirable for flexible devices.

The selective hydrogenation of furfural (FAL) to furfuryl alcohol (FOL), catalyzed by the industrially important Cu/Al 2 O 3 catalysts, represents a significant research focus in biomass valorization. In this work, the significant promoting role of Ti modification on the performance of Cu/Al 2 O 3 for this reaction was systematically investigated using a series of Cu-xTi/Al 2 O 3 (x = 1–15 wt%) catalysts. The results revealed that at low Ti loadings (<9 wt%), Ti species were highly dispersed, formed Ti–O–Al interfacial structures with the Al 2 O 3 support, effectively increasing the number of weak acid sites and oxygen vacancies. Importantly, Ti modification optimized the metal-support interaction, enhanced the electron density of Cu species through electron transfer, significantly improved the reducibility of Cu species, and promoted the formation of metallic Cu 0 . However, excessive Ti loading (>9 wt%) led to the formation of crystalline TiO 2 particles that blocked surface active sites. The Cu-9Ti/Al 2 O 3 catalyst exhibited the best performance, achieving 100 % furfural conversion and 100 % furfuryl alcohol selectivity under reaction conditions of 85 °C, 1.0 MPa H 2 , and 4.5 h in isopropanol solvent. In situ DRIFTS experiments confirmed that the reaction followed the pathway of selective carbonyl adsorption and hydrogenation, and the formed furfuryl alcohol underwent rapid desorption, avoiding over-hydrogenation. This work elucidates the dual role of Ti modification in enhancing catalytic performance by tuning support acidity and optimizing the Cu electronic structure, providing insights for designing high-performance non-noble metal hydrogenation catalysts.

Dopamine is a critical neurotransmitter, and its dysfunction is strongly linked to various neurological disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, depression, and schizophrenia. Current detection techniques exhibit limitations in clinical applications; therefore, developing a method with high sensitivity and rapid response for dopamine detection holds significant importance. In this study, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) was synthesized via the solvent method, and a novel electrochemical sensor was constructed by integrating titanium metal–organic framework (Ti-MOF) with PEDOT through an in-situ synthesis strategy. This sensor combines the REDOX properties of Ti-MOF with the high conductivity of PEDOT, demonstrating exceptional sensitivity toward dopamine. The linear detection range spans from 8 to 400 μM, with a detection limit of 3.815 μM. In the presence of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), and uric acid (UA), the sensor exhibits remarkable selectivity for DA. Repeatability testing reveals that the relative standard deviation of the sample response current is less than 5%, indicating high data consistency. Furthermore, after one month of storage, the senso’s response to DA decreases by only 12%, reflecting excellent reproducibility. Additionally, this study provides an in-depth analysis of the sensor’s REDOX mechanism, offering theoretical support for its optimization and practical application. The successful development of this sensor introduces an innovative, efficient, and highly sensitive approach for dopamine detection, thereby expanding the application scope of Ti-MOF in the field of electrochemical sensing.

In this paper, Ti-contained Schiff base complex was intercalated into the interlayer of the ZnCr layered double hydroxides (LDHs) to form a novel layered organic–inorganic nanoscale material. And then, the hybrid material was further calcined to make metal oxides composite contained Zn, Cr and Ti (Ti/ZnO–Cr 2 O 3 ). This composite was used to study the performance and mechanism for naphthalene ( l -acid) photodegradation under visible light. The characterization results showed that Ti/ZnO–Cr 2 O 3 composite has higher specific area, more uniform pores size distribution and narrower band gap than that of original ZnCr–LDHs. Both physico-chemical property and photocatalytic performance for l -acid degradation by Ti/ZnO–Cr 2 O 3 were greatly improved with the increasing of calcination temperature, due to the highly crystalline structures with appearance of spinel ingredients of Zn, Cr and Ti. In addition, the molar ratio of Ti/Cr would also influence the photocatalytic property of the materials. Ti/ZnO–Cr 2 O 3 composite with Ti/Cr = 1 and calcined at 800 °C not only has narrow bang gap (2.11 eV) and high surface area (227 m 2 ), but also shows highest photocatalytic performance for l -acid degradation (90.2% within 240 min). Furthermore, the types and amounts of active radicals of photo oxidation reaction were also tested. The photocatalytic mechanism of the Ti/ZnO–Cr 2 O 3 composite was also discussed. Moreover, based on the results from HPLC–MS, GC–MS, FT–IT and DFT analysis, the decomposition intermediates and reaction pathway for l -acid were investigated in detail.

MIL-125(Ti) is well known for having stable structure, tunable electron structure, and multiple active sites, which is commonly studied in the field of photocatalysis . In this work, a series of rare earth (RE) doped MIL-125(Ti) (RE=Ce, Pr, Tm, Dy, Eu, and Sm) are prepared via the one-step hydrothermal method . Notably, Pr-MIL-125 displays a significantly enhanced catalytic performance than other RE-doped MIL-125, resulting in a maximal CO and CH 4 yield of 13.30 and 0.87 µmol·g −1 ·h −1 , respectively, which are 2.53-fold and 4.14-fold of the pristine MIL-125. The layered morphology endows Pr-MIL-125 with more active sites and facilitates the reaction of photoreduction CO 2 . Furthermore, the promoted photoactivities attributed to Pr ion dopant can act as electron transfer bridge and suppress charge recombination. This work would provide insight and guidance for designing RE-MOF based photocatalysts and enhancing the performance of photoreduction CO 2 .
