In this study, lanthanum hydroxide adsorbent was synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method and applied for removing phosphate from water. The optimal adsorbent was obtained at the La/OH molar ratio of 4:1. The adsorbent showed rapid adsorption of phosphate within the first 4 h in which approximately 84% of the equilibrium adsorption capacity can be achieved. The phosphate uptake was highly dependent on solution pH. The better fit of the Langmuir isotherm model to experimental data indicated that the monolayer adsorption occurred and the maximum adsorption capacity of 193.9 mg/g was accomplished at pH 7.0. The presence of fluoride could significantly retard the uptake of phosphate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that hydroxyl groups on the adsorbent surface played the most key role in the adsorption. The phosphate ions were adsorbed on the adsorbent through the formation of inner-sphere complexes.

The Si-TiO 2 based composites with a nanosized multi-sphere structure have been developed as novel anode for lithium ion cells . The Si spheres are highly embedded within the titanium dioxide nanoparticles via a hydrothermal synthesis route. The as-proposed sphere-stack like morphology achieves a superior cycling stability for lithium storage. The existence of TiO 2 is in favor for the mechanical stability of Si during charge-discharge and conversely reduces the obtained capacity of the composite. Furthermore, the Si/TiO 2 composite is coated by pyrolysized carbon. The reversible discharge capacity of the Si/TiO 2 /C composite reaches to 976 mAh g −1 after 50 cycles. Carbon coating is beneficial for the rate capability of the Si/TiO 2 based composite.

As a typical supercapacitor electrode material, the reported Mo-N compounds mostly own one part of outstanding electrochemical properties (specific capacitance (C sp ), voltage window and cycling stability), and the well integration with three aspects was rare. Here using a novel MoO 3 precursor with ultra-long nanobelts (NBs) and stable orthorhombic crystal structure, we prepared unique Mo 3 N 2 NBs, which inherited the morphology and structure of the precursor greatly. Compared with other Mo-N compounds, the Mo 3 N 2 NBs both possessed the high C sp (220.3 F/g at 0.4 A/g), great cycling stability (98.3% C sp retention after 1500 cycles) and wide voltage window (0.95 V) due to the improved morphology, stable structure and excellent conductivity.

A (ZrC/SiC) 35 multilayer alternating coating with 500∼700 nm sublayers thickness and 70 interfaces was deposited on sharp leading edge C/C composites by continuous CVD method. Its mechanical property and ablation resistance were assessed by scratch test and oxy-acetylene flame respectively and compared with ZrC monolayered coating. The (ZrC/SiC) 35 multilayer alternating coating exhibited a high bonding strength via the regulation of sub-micro alternating stress field and the inhibition of crack propagation by 70 interfaces, showing a high critical load L C3 of 22.521 N, which was higher than that of ZrC monolayered coating of 5.688 N. Furthermore, the coating revealed excellent ablation resistance evidenced by its intact oxide layer, and the mass and linear ablation rates were only 0.17 mg/s and 0.87 μm/s respectively. The layer-by-layer oxidation behavior allowed the advantages of ZrC and SiC sublayers to be fully utilized, thus maintaining the layered oxide structure. Furthermore, the total 35 layers of thin ZrO 2 layers improved the fault tolerance ability of coating in harsh ablative environments.

To enhance the reduced graphene oxide hydrogels' capacitive performance, many modifiers are used to add doped element into the materials and improve the structure. The isomers of aminophenol which contain amino and hydroxyl groups on the benzene ring are employed as structure regulator and modifier to synthesize high-performance reduced graphene oxide hydrogels. The influences of preparation conditions including ratios of graphene oxide to aminophenol isomers, temperature, reaction times on the samples’ structure and properties have been investigated. The results show that the oligomer of o-aminophenol is formed on reduced graphene oxide sheets while the molecules of p, m-aminophenol are bound to the sheets; and that the hydrogel prepared in the presence of p-aminophenol has larger specific surface area, total pore volume , specific capacitance and good rate capability (74.0% of 427.0 F g −1 retains at 100 mV s −1 ) than other. The cells assembled by the optimized hydrogels exhibit the energy density of 14.07 Wh kg −1 at power density of 124.3 W kg −1 , and 4.96 Wh kg −1 at 6.78 kW kg −1 . Furthermore, 92.2% of initial capacitance can be retained after 20,000 cycles for the cells assembled by the optimal hydrogel. This kind of material may be found its use in energy storage field.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes have received increasing attention due to their unprecedented potential for energy-efficient gas separation. Compared with other MOF materials (like ZIF), fabrication and microstructural manipulation of high-performance Ti-MOF-based membranes, although being very attractive due to their excellent chemical and thermal stability, remained relatively less investigated due to the limitations of available titanium sources and heating modes. In this study, different Ti sources (TPOT, TiS 2 , and MXene) and heating modes (conventional heating, multi-mode microwave heating, and single-mode microwave heating) were examined for the preparation of NH 2 -MIL-125 membranes showing diverse microstructures and gas separation performances. The present work revealed that for the first time, MXene , the new two-dimensional Ti carbide , could be used as Ti source for synthesizing MOF membranes. The best performing NH 2 -MIL-125 membranes, which were obtained with TiS 2 as the metal source under single-mode microwave heating, exhibited the highest H 2 /CO 2 selectivity (ca. 17.2) as well as considerable H 2 permeance (1.7 × 10 −7 mol m −2 s −1 Pa −1 ), owing to an enhanced non-thermal effect of single-mode microwave heating and balanced dissolution rate of TiS 2 .

The successful one-pot synthesis of MCM-41/MFI composite is mainly concentrated on the trivalent heteroatom of Al 3+ and Fe 3+ , however there are almost no reports about the one-pot synthesis of Ti-MCM-41/MFI composite. In this work, we reported the one-pot synthesis of Ti-MCM-41/MFI composite with a temperature-gradient hydrothermal strategy using hexadecyl trimethylammonium bromide CTAB and silicalite-1 seed as structure directing agents as well as ammonia solution as alkali source, and its application as heterogeneous catalyst in the cyclohexene epoxidation reactions. The impact of Si/Ti molar ratio and ammonia dosage as well as CTAB amount on the formation and property of Ti-MCM-41/MFI composite were systematically investigated. In addition, a possible partial transformation mechanism of Ti-MCM-41/MFI composite sample was proposed. The synthesized Ti-HMZ-50-N3.77-Se0.05 sample with ordered mesoporous structure and high content of framework titanium active centers revealed the eminent cyclohexene epoxidation performance, achieving a 32.51 % of cyclohexene conversion and a 61.27 % selectivity of cyclohexene oxide within 5 h of reaction.

Anatase TiO 2 coatings prepared by solvothermal process in a neutral ethanol solution of isopropyl titanate at 160 °C have been grown on slag wool fibers (SWF) which were modified by hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in advance. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the coatings are of a nanocrystalline anatase structure, and scanning electron microscopy observations and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum revealed a continuous coverage of TiO 2 formed on the fiber surfaces. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was tested by the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) solution. The results show that CTAB modified slag wool fibers (CMSWF) are not a suitable adsorbent for MB due to their weaker negative surface charges. Anatase TiO 2 coated CMSWF display higher photocatalyst activity than anatase TiO 2 coated SWF without CTAB modification, and Anatase TiO 2 coated CMSWF are relatively stable under UV-light irradiation.

Silicon oxide (SiO
x
) films are widely used as barrier layers in different types of commodity packaging and have caught the interest of manufacturers and researchers alike owing to their high barrier functionality, good acid and alkali resistance, ability to withstand high-temperature and microwave treatments, and good transparency. In this study, we first synthesized polylactic acid (PLA) films by extrusion calendaring and then deposited a SiO
x
layer on the PLA films by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition to prepare SiO
x
/PLA composite films. We then evaluated the barrier functionality of the SiO
x
layer and elucidated its underlying mechanism. We also analyzed its effect on the mechanical properties of the composite films by comparing the oxygen and water vapor transmission rates, soil degradation performances, and surface morphologies of the two types of synthesized films (uncoated and coated with SiO
x
). The results showed that, because of the SiO
x
layer, the barrier properties and mechanical properties of the SiO
x
/PLA composite films were better than those of the uncoated films. In particular, the oxygen and water vapor transmission rates of the composite films were approximately 8–10 and 6–8 times lower, respectively, than those of the uncoated PLA films. In addition, the SiO
x
layer lowered the rate of soil degradation of the composite films, owing to which the weight-loss rates of the composite films were also lower than those of the uncoated films. Further, the tensile strengths and elongations at break of the composite films were higher because of the SiO
x
layer. Graphical

The surface-fluorinated Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 nanowires/reduced graphene oxide composite is synthesized through a hydrothermal procedure. Lithium ion transport is promoted by forming a special morphology of lithium titanate nanowires, meanwhile, electronic transmission is facilitated by surface fluorination and conductive network of graphene coating. These three kinds of synergistic effects greatly improve the rate performance of lithium titanate . The surface-fluorinated Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 nanowires/reduced graphene oxide composite exhibits high specific capacities (167.5 mAh g −1 at 1 C and even 132.6 mAh g −1 at 10 C) and good cyclic stability (95% capacity remain after 300 cycles at 5 C). The influences of surface fluorination and graphene coating on electrochemical performance of lithium titanate are investigated in detail in terms of reversible capacity, cyclability and rate capability. Its excellent electrochemical properties make it become possible to be a potential anode material for high-rate lithium-ion batteries applied in high power facilities.

High energy density Li-CO 2 batteries have attracted much attention owing to the “two birds with one stone” feature in fixing greenhouse gas CO 2 and providing renewable energy. However, poor reversibility of the discharge product Li 2 CO 3 is one of the main problems that limit its application, resulting in poor cycling stability and severe polarization. Herein, copper indium sulfide (CIS), a semiconducting non-precious metal sulfide, is fabricated as cathode catalysts for high-performance Li-CO 2 batteries. Combined with the synergistic effect of bimetallic valence bonding and coordinated electron transfer, Li-CO 2 batteries using CIS cathodes exhibit high full specific discharge capacity, excellent rate capability and cycle stability, namely it delivers a high specific full discharge capacity of 8878 μAh cm −2 , runs steadily from 10 to 100 μA cm −2 , and performs a stable long-term cycling behavior (>1050 h) under a high energy efficiency of 84% and a low charge voltage of approximately 3.4 V at 20 μA cm −2 within 100 μAh cm −2 . In addition, a flexible Li-CO 2 pouch cell is constructed to reveal the potential of employing CIS to fabricate flexible high energy storage devices in practical applications. This work shows a promising development pathway toward next-generation sustainable energy storage devices.

In order to improve the electrochemical performance and efficiently prepare a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) for the lithium-metal battery (LMB), a fumed SiO2 (FS) with surface Si–OH group was used to fabricate FS-modified poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)–LiClO4-based SPE by a facile preparation process. The influences of the FS content on the morphological properties, thermal properties, lithium salt dissociation, mechanical properties, and electrochemical properties of SPE were systematically analyzed. Results indicate that FS with the hydrophilic property was widely distributed throughout the amorphous phase of SPE, thus the crystallinity of SPE was reduced to 25.83% when the FS mass loading was 6.85 wt%. In addition, a greater dissociation degree of lithium salt was achieved after the addition of FS, and a higher ion conductivity of 3.03 × 10−4 S cm−1 and Li-ion migration number of 0.396 were recorded at 60 °C. The all-solid-state Li/SPE/Li coin cell showed excellent stable cyclability (380 h) and the LiFePO4 (LFP)/SPE/Li coin cell demonstrated good discharge specific capacity and coulomb efficiency of 96 mA h g−1 and 100.2%, respectively, after 100 cycles of galvanostatic charge–discharge operation under 0.5C at 60 °C. Thus, based on collective results, it is expected that SPE presented in this work is a promising electrolyte for next-generation high-energy all-solid-state LMB with enhanced safety.
