Mn-doped ZnO (MZO) films were prepared on glass substrates using sol–gel dip-coating technology. The microstructural, morphological, optical and photoelectric properties of MZO films were investigated at different withdrawal speeds (WS: 20, 40, 60 and 80 mm s−1). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that all the films obtained were polycrystalline with a hexagonal structure, and the highest crystallinity of MZO films was observed as films were deposited at 40 mm s−1. The UV-Vis spectra revealed that the average optical transmittance of all samples was over 60% and the energy band gap of films decreased from 3.616 to 3.254 eV with the increase in withdrawal speed. The formed Au/MZO/Au photodetectors (PDs) indicate that a device prepared at 40 mm s−1 shows superior properties both in response speed and detection capability, and the rise time is 1.871 s and fall time is 3.309 s at 365 nm for 3 V bias and the detectivity (D*) reaches ∼1.7 × 1010 Jones. Moreover, the responsivity of PDs is also affected by the distance between Au electrodes and external bias. This research provides a simple way to fabricate the UV PDs based on MZO films with faster response and higher detectivity.

In order to improve the stability time and foaming ratio of gel foam, and change the traditional preparation method of gel foam. In this paper, using super-hydrophobic nanoparticles , PVA, sodium tetraborate and sodium bicarbonate as the main raw materials, based on the self-assembly effect of super-hydrophobic nanoparticles and hydrophilic macromolecules, a high-foaming gel foam (PGF) without foaming agent was prepared. Through the test, the foaming volume of the 100 ml PGF can reach 329 ml without adding foaming agent, which is 1.4 times of the traditional gel foam (TGF) and 1.2 times of the viscous foam (VF). Even without foaming agent, the PGF has a half-life of more than 13 days and can retain water for more than 15 h at 100 °C. Response surface analysis showed that the foaming performance of the PGF was affected by nanoparticles, sodium tetraborate and sodium bicarbonate, among which the content of nanoparticles was the main factor. At the same time, sodium tetraborate and sodium bicarbonate also significantly affect the water retention performance of PGF. Fire prevention experiments show that the gel foam prepared by this method also has excellent fire prevention ability, which can effectively inhibit the consumption of hydroxyl group and the generation of methyl and methylene group in the process of coal oxidation. Moreover, it can still play an inhibiting ability at a high temperature of 400 °C, and can effectively prevent the recurrence of coal fire after extinguishing. The development of PGF provides a new method for the preparation of gel foam in the future. At the same time, the application of foaming agent is avoided, which reduces the pollution of surfactant to the environment.

ReNiO3 (Re = Pr, Sm, Eu) solid electrolytes were prepared by the sol–gel method, which were sintered in a pure oxygen atmosphere of 20 MPa at 1000 °C for 24 hours. The DC resistivities of the three materials in air and in a hydrogen-containing atmosphere were tested respectively. The resistivities in the hydrogen-containing atmosphere were about 102, 104, and 105 times higher than those in air and XPS analysis showed that after 10%H2–Ar treatment, the proportion of Ni2+ of PrNiO3, SmNiO3 and EuNiO3 increased successively. The proton transport number of PrNiO3 was lower than 0.5 at 50–500 °C, and SmNiO3 and EuNiO3 were almost pure proton conductors below 200 °C. The conductivities of SmNiO3 and EuNiO3 were 1.08 × 10−4 S cm−1 and 1.83 × 10−5 S cm−1 at 200 °C in 5%H2–Ar. The hydrogen sensing properties of SmNiO3 and EuNiO3 show that the measurement results of the two materials were accurate in the range of 0.5–10% H2.

Orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films have been successfully prepared via spin coating technique followed by annealing at 500–750 °C. The phase composition, microstructure, morphology and negative thermal behavior of the synthesized Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films were investigated. XRD and XPS analysis indicate that as-deposited film is amorphous . Orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films can be prepared after post-annealing at 500–750 °C for 1 h. The crystallinity of Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films gradually improved with the increase of post-annealing temperature. SEM analysis shows as-deposited film is smooth and compact, and the grain size of Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film grows up as the post-annealing temperature increases. Variable temperature XRD analysis demonstrates that the synthesized orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films show stable thermo-chemical and anisotropic NTE property in 25–700 °C. The corresponding coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of the orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film in a, b and c directions are −6.68 × 10 −6 °C −1 , 5.08 × 10 −6 °C −1 and −4.76 × 10 −6 °C −1 , respectively. The whole unit cell of the orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film shrinks and the volumetric CTE of the Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 thin film is −6.36 × 10 −6 °C −1 , and the linear CTE is about −2.12 × 10 −6 °C −1 ( α v = 3 α l ).

B-site cobalt-doped perovskite oxide BaNiO3 oxygen sorbents have been synthesized by an EDTA sol–gel method and further applied for producing oxygen. BaCoxNi1−xO3−δ oxygen sorbents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic oxygen adsorption/desorption experiments. Results showed that BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ features higher production amounts of oxygen among the candidates. The operating factors of oxygen releasing performance were investigated in detail including adsorption temperature, desorption temperature, adsorption time, CO2 flow rate and CO2 partial pressure. It was concluded that the temperature and CO2 flow rate are the main reasons affecting the performance of perovskite oxygen sorbents. The optimal operating parameters of oxygen releasing performance for BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ were as follows: adsorption temperature was 850 °C, desorption temperature was 850 °C, air adsorption time was 30 min, CO2 flow was 200 ml min−1 and the ratio of CO2/N2 was 100 : 0. The oxygen production amount of BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ was 49.5 mg g−1 under the optimal reaction conditions. Finally, multiple cycles demonstrated that BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ displays higher stability and regeneration capacity, which is the key factor providing a stable O2/CO2 gas stream for oxyfuel combustion application.

Porous gelcasted and solid-state-sintered SiC (S-SiC) ceramics with significantly improved connectivity were successfully prepared through the synergistic pore-forming mechanism of direct foaming and particle packing, using fine (D 50 = 0.5 μm) and coarse (D 50 = 5.0 μm) graded SiC powders as the main raw materials. As the proportion of coarse SiC powder increased, the viscosities of aqueous SiC-B 4 C-C slurries sharply decreased, which thus flourished foaming and enlarged bubble-derived-pore diameter in porous S-SiC ceramics, accompanied with the increased amount and size of window. Moreover, abundant particle-packing pores in struts of bubble-derived pores were also formed and even interconnected with each other at 60 wt% of coarse SiC powder. Besides, there was a remarkable increase in porosity from 61.0% to 81.7% and accordingly a significant decline in density from 1.24 g cm −3 to 0.58 g cm −3 as the content of coarse SiC powder increased. The optimized multiple pore microstructures resulted in an amazing nitrogen gas permeability of 1.78×10 −11 m 2 under the condition of an excellent compressive strength of 10.8 ± 2.7 MPa.

A negatively charged polypeptide nanogel, near-infrared (NIR) cyanine dye (Cy5.5) conjugated and 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride (DMA) modified poly- l -lysine-co- l -cystine (CDPLC), is synthesized and is used as an imaging-guided sequential drug delivery system. The CDPLC nanogel can respond to two general stimulations in sequence: extracellular tumor acidic microenvironment pHe (6.8–6.5) and intracellular high concentration glutathione (GSH). Under pHe, the DMA shell of the nanogel is removed and a charge reversal takes place, resulting in positively charged nanogel which can be internalized by cancer cells easily. Once internalized into tumor cells, the increased intracellular GSH concentration further promotes DOX release from the nanogel and DOX is enriched to the nucleus. Cy5.5 is conjugated to the nanogel as an NIR fluorescent probe, making it possible for imaging-guided drug delivery, which is confirmed by the MTT and confocal laser scanning microscopy via in vitro experiments. The as-prepared nanogel is a potential theranostic for cancer therapy.

In this work, hydrogel photonic crystal beads with inverse opal structure are generated on a well-controlled microfluidic chip device. An online droplet drying method and templating technique are integrated into the producing process. This process results in the silica nanoparticles in the droplets self-assembled into spherical photonic crystals with narrow stop bands and identical structural colours, which is the ideal template for fabricating inverse opal hydrogel beads. The effects of acrylic acid (AA) concentration, water dosage and buffer pH on the equilibrium swelling of inverse opal hydrogel are discussed. In the concentration of AA (3%) and water (31%), the inverse opal hydrogel beads show wide sensing range and rapid response (less than 30 s) to pH variation. Overall, the inverse opal hydrogels as pH sensors show homogeneous structural colour changes due to the spherical 3D structure. The present characterization of quite mechanically robust and good reproducibility for the spherical pH sensor may have promise application in advanced optical devices.

A novel kind of impact protective material, named as impact protective micro-gel (IPM), was synthesized via a precipitation copolymerization of a compound containing boron and silanol. Diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) was introduced as the chain extender to enhance its impact protective performance. Its rheological properties and morphology were investigated. Three-dimensional (3D) spacer warp-knitted fabrics were dip-coated with the IPM made with and without use of MDI, and the impact protective performance of 3D finished fabrics was assessed by drop impact tests. The results show that the adjustment of the MDI content can adjust the real cross-linking density of the IPM due to the entanglement of polymer chains, and an appropriate cross-linking density can endow dilatant properties to the IPM samples. The results also show that the impact protective performance of 3D spacer fabrics finished with the IPM can be significantly improved. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

The absorbent materials synthesized from biosources with low cost and high selectivity for oils and organic solvents have attracted increasing attention in the field of oil spillage and discharge of organic chemicals. We developed a convenient surface-grafting method to prepare efficient and recyclable biobased aerogels from epoxidized soybean oil (ESO)-modified cellulose at room temperature. The porous network-like structure of the cellulose aerogel was still fully retained after undergoing hydrophobic modification with ESO. Moreover, the modified aerogels possessed excellent hydrophobicity with a water contact angle of 132.6°. Moreover, the absorbent ability of the hydrophobic cellulose aerogels was systematically assessed. The results showed that modified aerogels could retain more than 90% absorption capacity even after 30 absorption–desorption cycles, indicating that the ESO-grafted cellulose aerogels have practical applications in the oil–water separation from industrial wastewater and oil-leakage removal.

A diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) method using a new high-capacity cerium oxide (CeO 2 ) binding gel, for the first time, was developed for measuring dissolved inorganic arsenic in freshwater and seawater . The capacities of the new CeO 2 binding gel were 682 μg and 375 μg for As III and As V , respectively. The masses of As III and As V accumulated by CeO 2 -DGT device increased linearly with time and agreed well with the theoretical value calculated by DGT equation. The arsenic accumulation by CeO 2 -DGT was independent of pH (4.05–9.04) and ionic strength (0.1–750 mM), and common anions including CO 3 2− , SO 4 2− , Cl − and PO 4 3− had no obvious interference. CeO 2 -DGT showed excellent long-term deployment performance in freshwater and synthetic seawater . Field trials with CeO 2 -DGT achieved successfully the time-weighted-average concentrations of total inorganic arsenic in reservoir water (1.38 ± 0.09 μg/L) and coastal seawater (0.45 ± 0.06 μg/L). The results were comparable to those measured by grab sampling. The proposed method was reliable and robust for in-situ measurements of dissolved inorganic arsenic in environmental waters.

Three ionic liquids (ILs) with increasing dissolution power, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim][Cl]), 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Amim][Cl]), and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([Emim][Ac]), were selected for cellulose dissolution and film preparation through regeneration. The physical properties of the films were investigated, and the correlation between the IL used and the film properties was evaluated. The results indicated that the superior cellulose dissolution system, [Emim][Ac], had the most difficult regeneration process (i.e., more time was required for gel formation), followed by [Amim][Cl], and [Bmim][Cl]. On the other hand, the film produced from [Amim][Cl] had the highest crystallinity, transparency, and tensile strength, followed by the films produced from [Bmim][Cl] and [Emim][Ac]. It was inferred that stronger and more ordered molecular arrangements and inter-molecular interactions preferentially occurred during cellulose regeneration from [Amim][Cl] than during cellulose regeneration from [Bmim][Cl] and [Emim][Ac].
