Droplets impinging on sparse microgrooved polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces with different solid fractions was experimentally investigated. First, wettability and stability of droplets on these surfaces was analyzed. The advancing and receding contact angles were found to have a large difference between in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse one, which could be attributed to the anisotropy of the micropatterned surfaces. The judgement of whether a droplet on a sparse microgrooved structure is collapsed or suspended is proposed, and it was found that the droplets were in the Cassie-Baxter wetting state when the actual contact line density is greater than the critical contact line density, while they were in the Wenzel wetting state otherwise. Second, for the case of droplets impacting on sparse microgrooved PDMS surfaces, it was found that droplets can bounce off the micro-patterned surface with a solid fraction of 0.158 when the impact velocity was in a certain range. The lower limit of impact velocity for bouncing droplets can be determined by balancing the kinetic energy of the droplets with the energy barrier due to contact angle hysteresis. The upper limit of impact velocity for bouncing droplets was predicted using a theoretical model taking into account the penetration of liquid into the cavities between microstripes.

Abstract Steroid-based drugs are now mainly produced by the microbial transformation of phytosterol, and a two-step bioprocess is adopted to reach high space–time yields, but byproducts are frequently observed during the bioprocessing. In this study, the catabolic switch between the C19- and C22-steroidal subpathways was investigated in resting cells of Mycobacterium neoaurum NRRL B-3805, and a dose-dependent transcriptional response toward the induction of phytosterol with increased concentrations was found in the putative node enzymes including ChoM2, KstD1, OpccR, Sal, and Hsd4A. Aldolase Sal presented a dominant role in the C22 steroidal side-chain cleavage, and the byproduct was eliminated after sequential deletion of opccR and sal . Meanwhile, the molar yield of androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) was increased from 59.4 to 71.3%. With the regard of insufficient activity of rate-limiting enzymes may also cause byproduct accumulation, a chromosomal integration platform for target gene overexpression was established supported by a strong promoter L2 combined with site-specific recombination in the engineered cell. Rate-limiting steps of ADD bioconversion were further characterized and overcome. Overexpression of the kstD1 gene further strengthened the bioconversion from AD to ADD. After subsequential optimization of the bioconversion system, the directed biotransformation route was developed and allowed up to 82.0% molar yield with a space–time yield of 4.22 g·L −1 ·day −1 . The catabolic diversion elements and the genetic overexpression tools as confirmed and developed in present study offer new ideas of M. neoaurum cell factory development for directed biotransformation for C19- and C22-steroidal drug intermediates from phytosterol. Key points • Resting cells exhibited a catabolic switch between the C19- and C22-steroidal subpathways. • The C22-steroidal byproduct was eliminated after sequential deletion of opccR and sal. • Rate-limiting steps were overcome by promoter engineering and chromosomal integration.

Cesium-based inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are paid more attention because of their potential thermal stability. However, prevalent salt-doped 2,2′,7,7′-tetrakis(N,N-dipmethoxyphenylamine)9,9′-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) as hole-transport materials (HTMs) for a high-efficiency inorganic device has an unfortunate defective thermal stability. In this study, we apply poly (3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) as the HTM and design all-inorganic PSCs with an indium tin oxide (ITO)/SnO 2 /LiF/CsPbI 3− x Br x /P3HT/Au structure. As a result, the CsPbI 3 − x Br x PSCs achieve an excellent performance of 15.84%. The P3HT HTM-based device exhibits good photo-stability, maintaining ∼80% of their initial power conversion efficiency over 280 h under one Sun irradiation. In addition, they also show better thermal stability compared with the traditional HTM Spiro-OMeTAD.

In this study, a novel diethylene triamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid) (DTPMPA)- and graphene oxide (GO)-modified superhydrophobic anodized aluminum (DGSAA) coating was fabricated. The obtained coatings were characterized by scan electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Raman analysis. After immersion in the supersaturated CaCO 3 solution for 240 h, the scaling mass of the DGSAA coating is only 50% of that of the SAA coating. The excellent anti-scaling performance of the DGSAA coating comes from three barriers of the air layer, the DTPMPA:Ca 2+ chelate, and the lamellar GO, as well as the further active anti-scaling of DTPMPA:Ca 2+ at the coating-solution interface. DTPMPA and GO at the surface of the DGSAA coating exhibit an insertion structure. In the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement, the impedance modulus of the DGSAA coating is three orders-of-magnitude higher than that of the anodized aluminum. The synergistic effect of DTPMPA stored in the porous structure of anodized aluminum and the barrier protection of superhydrophobicity and GO contributes to the excellent comprehensive performance of the DGSAA coating. This research provides a new perspective for designing anti-scaling and anti-corrosion superhydrophobic bi-functional coatings.

The authors report that cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH) nanoflakes possess intrinsic oxidizing ability to directly oxidize 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to form a blue colored product (oxTMB) even in the absence of H 2 O 2 and oxygen. In the presence of ascorbic acid (AA), less of the blue product is formed because AA reduces oxTMB. These findings constitute a new scheme for colorimetric detection of AA. Absorbance, best measured at 652 nm, linearly drops in the 10 nM to 1 μM AA concentration range, and the limit of detection is 5 nM (at an S/N ratio of 3). The reaction is complete within <5 s and highly selective. A strip test has been designed for fast and on-spot visual detection of AA. The method was applied to the direct estimation of AA in the microdialysate of brain, and also in soft drink samples. The strip test is considered to be a promising tool for the rapid screening of AA in brain and commercial samples.

The accumulation and autoxidation of residual oily soil from human sebum is regarded as a major reason for the aging and yellowing of clothing and household textiles. In this study, the yellowing degree of cotton fabrics soiled with human sebum components and aged under various environmental conditions (various temperatures, humidities and light intensities etc.) were investigated. The representative sebum components including olive oil, squalene, oleic acid and cottonseed oil were selected and their chemical changes were studied by FTIR analysis. The results showed that, olive oil, squalene, oleic acid and cottonseed oil could caused more significant fabric-yellowing than other components in human sebum, and the yellowing degree could become higher with increasing temperatures, humidities and/or light intensities of aging environments. The chemical structures of olive oil, squalene and oleic acid changed remarkably after aging treatment. The aging products contained hydroxyl groups and carbonyl groups, and the conjugated C=O group was considered to be the chemical species leading to the yellowing of sebum-soiled fabrics.

Crystalline zirconium dioxide nanorods have been prepared by a simple hydrothermal process using zirconium hydroxide as the zirconium raw material. Zirconium dioxide nanorods are composed of monoclinic zirconium dioxide phase, which has been confirmed by the X-ray diffraction analysis. Electron microscopy observations show that the zirconium dioxide nanorods have a single crystal structure, with the rod diameter of less than 100 nm and length of 1–2 μm. Hydrothermal temperature and reaction time play essential roles in the formation and growth of the zirconium dioxide nanorods. Nucleation and crystal growth process are proposed to explain the formation and growth of the zirconium dioxide nanorods.

A novel strain capable of degrading triclosan was isolated from the acclimated activated sludge and identified to be Dyella sp. WW1 based on 16S rDNA analysis. The effect of initial concentration of triclosan (0.2, 1, 5, and 10 mg/L), temperature (15, 25, and 35 °C), pH (5, 7, and 9), and additional carbon source on the degradation of triclosan was investigated in a mineral medium. The results showed that Dyella sp. WW1 can use triclosan as sole carbon source and degrade it when initial triclosan concentration was in the range of 0.2–10 mg/L. The optimal condition for Dyella sp. WW1 to degrade triclosan was 15 °C and pH 7. TOC removal efficiency was more than 90%. Dyella sp. WW1 can degrade 3,5-dichloro-4-hydrobenzoic via co-metabolism in the presence of triclosan, but cannot degrade trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole, carbamazepine, and diclofenac. In the presence of glucose, Dyella sp. WW1 firstly utilized glucose to synthesize the biomass and then degraded triclosan. When triclosan concentration decreased to an extent (1.2 mg/L in this study), Dyella sp. WW1 started to use glucose again. The wastewater components did not significantly affect the activity of Dyella sp. WW1 to degrade triclosan. During the biodegradation process, six metabolite products were identified. Based on the metabolites, two degradation pathways were tentatively proposed. In summary, Dyella sp. WW1 could be used for degrading triclosan in the real wastewater.

A series of novel Sm 3+ activated yellow–orange-emitting phosphors have been synthesized successfully by the conventional solid-state method. Their phase composition and luminescence properties have been investigated and discussed systematically. Upon excitation at 410 nm, all the studied phosphors showed intense narrow emissions with a prominent peak centered at around 610 nm, corresponding to 4 G 5/2 — 6 H 7/2 transition. The critical concentration of Sm 3+ ions was determined to be 0.02, and the concentration quenching mechanism was verified as dipole–dipole interaction. The investigation of thermal stability revealed that the photoluminescence intensity of Ba 3 Lu 3.92 O 9 :0.08Sm 3+ at 425 K remained around 81.4% of that at 298 K. Besides, when excited at 410 nm, the studied phosphor exhibited high color purity of 99.5% with the CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.5974, 0.4010) and a low Correlation Color Temperature of 2217 K. Consequently, it could be expected that the as-synthesized Ba 3 Lu 4 O 9 :Sm 3+ phosphors would be a promising candidate of yellow–orange component for warm white or amber LEDs.

Exploring efficient catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is one of focus points of energy research. In this work, a series of MXene/Pt- x (wherein, x is the adding amount of 6.2 mM H 2 PtCl 6 solution) nanomaterials were fabricated via a facile synthesis method, in which coral-like Pt nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited on Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene. The Pt-loading amounts on the MXene could be simply controlled by varying the adding amounts of H 2 PtCl 6 , which would influence the sizes of Pt NPs on the MXene. The optimum catalytic activity was obtained on the MXene/Pt-3 with a low overpotential of 302 mV versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) at 10 mA cm −2 , which was about 84 mV less than MXene/Pt-2. The efficiently electrocatalytic HER activity of MXene/Pt- x nanomaterials was due to the electron transfer from MXene to Pt NPs. The HER performance of the MXene/Pt- x nanomaterials was influenced by both Pt-loading amounts and Pt particle sizes. This work expands future applications of MXene-based nanomaterials in clean energy conversion reactions.

In this study, we proposed a novel method of adding large amount of excessive Ti in Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 TiO 3 -based thin film to improve its energy storage density. Ti-excess 0.94Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 Ti x O 3 -0.06BaTi x O 3 (BNBT x , x = 1.00, 1.05, 1.10, 1.15) thin films were successfully prepared by sol–gel method. It was found that the phase structure of the thin films kept unchanged with the increase of Ti content, and substantial improvements in microstructure and breakdown strength could be obtained by the addition of an excess of Ti in BNBT x thin films, as well as reduced leakage. As a result, improved energy storage density of 34 J/cm 3 and energy storage efficiency of 48% were achieved simultaneously in BNBT 1.15 thin film at a medium electric field of 2400 kV/cm. Furthermore, Ti-excess thin films showed high-dielectric constant with good temperature stability from 25 to 200 °C. These results demonstrate that Ti-excess BNBT x thin film is a potential system for energy storage materials.

Ba 0.85 Ca 0.15 Zr 0.9 Ti 0.1 O 3 (BCZT) ceramics with various grain sizes were fabricated through solid-state method followed by different sintering temperatures. The influences of grain size and phase structure on the electric properties and energy storage performance were systematically investigated. The remnant polarization and quasi-static piezoelectric constant of BCZT samples increase gradually as grain size increases, and the samples with the grain size of 44.37 µm exhibit excellent ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity (2 P r = 25.4 µC/cm 2 , d 33 = 513 pC/N). Although the energy storage density of BCZT samples with the grain size of 8.28–44.37 µm is relative lower, all the ceramic samples have higher energy storage efficiency (82–87.4%). There is the maximum energy storage density in phase transition temperature of tetragonal–cubic phase for all BCZT ceramics and the maximum energy storage density first increases and then decreases with the increase of grain size. But the energy storage density of BCZT ceramics near room temperature decreases with increasing of grain size. The smaller grain size is beneficial to improve the room temperature energy storage density of BCZT samples and is disadvantageous to obtaining superior ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties.
