Copper plays a crucial role in the low-carbon transformation of global communities with prevalent use of electric vehicles. This study proposed an environmentally friendly approach that utilizes a deep eutectic solvent (DES), choline chloride-ethylene glycol (ChCl-EG), as green solvent for the selective extraction of copper from scrap materials . With hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent , the copper species from the printed circuit boards (PCBs) scraps were efficiently leached by the DES through oxidation-complexation reactions (conditions: 25 min, 20 °C, and 5 wt% H 2 O 2 ). Molecular dynamics and density functional theory were performed to simulate the intricate cascade of interactions between copper species and hydrogen bond donors/acceptors of DES, providing insights into the mechanistic processes involved. Copper was selectively recovered from the DES leachate containing impurities (e.g. , Pb 2+ , Sn 2+ , and Al 3+ ) through electrodeposition via a diffusion-controlled reaction under a constant potential mode. A comprehensive life cycle assessment of the process demonstrated that the utilisation of DES in the extraction of copper from waste PCBs could result in significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions (−93.6 kg CO 2 eq of 1000 kg waste PCBs), thus mitigating the carbon footprint of global copper use through the proposed solvometallurgical recycling process of secondary resources.

A large area graphene platform electrode (GPE) was fabricated by transferring chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene on Cu foils onto polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates with the aid of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Cobalt hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF) was electrodeposited on GPE by cyclic voltammetry. The morphology and electrochemical properties of CoHCF/GPE were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the electrochemical measurements. The CoHCF/GPE showed favorable sensing effect toward H 2 O 2 . A novel non-enzyme H 2 O 2 sensor was constructed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the proposed sensor responded to the addition of H 2 O 2 very quickly (about 2 s) with a wide linear rang (0.005–1.2 mM) and a low detection limit (7.1 nM). This sensor was easy to be fabricated and showed excellent stability and anti-interference ability.

Bisphenol A (BPA) was successfully electrodeposited on glassy carbon electrode modified with the chitosan-graphene (Chit-GR/GCE) by multiple sweep voltammetry under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The experimental conditions of the BPA deposits and the probable oxidation mechanism were investigated. Two oxidation peaks (peakII=0.12 V, peakIII=0.20 V) appeared in a suitable potential range of 0.0V and 0.2V at the Chit-GR/GC eletrode in the presence of UV light, and it could be seen that the oxidation peak current increased with the increase of UV irradiation time. The emerging peakIII was reported firstly in the work, which showed that the Chit-GR modified electrode had catalytic activity on the oxidation of BPA. Based on the oxidation peak (III) of BPA oxidative porducts on the Chit-GR/GC electrode under UV irradiation, the electrochemical sensor was fabiracated for determination of BPA. The calibration curve was obtained in the range of 5.0 to 200.0 μM with the limit of detection of 0.34 μM (S/N=3) and the response sensitivity of 0.33 μA μM -1 , which was higher than those of the method of determining BPA based on the direct oxidtation of BPA (0.98 μM (S/N=3), 0.12 μA μM -1 ). It was applied successfully for determination of BPA in lake, soil and plastic bottle samples. The new strategy, based on anodic electrodeposition and photocatalytic oxidation of BPA oxidation porducts, was provided for determination of BPA under UV irradiation. It was green, evironmental and effective.

The dynamic optical switch of plasmonic nanostructures is highly desirable due to its promising applications in many smart optical devices. To address the challenges in the reversibility and transmittance contrast of the plasmonic electrochromic devices, here, a strategy is reported to fabricate color switchable electrochromic films through electro-responsive dissolution and deposition of Ag on predefined hollow shells of Au/Ag alloy. Using the hollow Au/Ag alloy nanostructures as stable seeds for site-specific deposition of Ag, elimination of the random self-nucleation events is enabled and optimal reversibility in color switching is allowed. The hollow structure further enables excellent transmittance contrast between the bleached and colored states. With its additional advantages such as the convenience for preparation, high sensitivity, and field-tunable optical property, it is believed that this new electrochromic film represents a unique platform for designing novel smart optical devices.

Aqueous zinc metal batteries (AZMBs) as one of the next-generation energy storage technologies have attracted both academic and industrial attention due to their high safety, low cost, and high specific energy, yet are facing interfacial challenges at the electrolyte/anode interface, e.g. uneven physical diffusion of Zn2+ flux, severe chemical corrosion, and disordered electrochemical deposition behavior of the zinc metal anode. To address these issues, herein, we propose a facile and effective electrolyte modulating strategy to construct a physico-chemo-electrochemically coupled stable interface between the aqueous electrolyte and zinc anode. The aqueous electrolyte modified using a tiny amount of water-soluble ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF4) can form a positively charged organic EMIM+ adsorption layer and a protective inorganic Zn2+-conducting layer through the in situ decomposition of BF4− on the zinc anode surface, thus effectively homogenizing the Zn2+ diffusion flux and decreasing the chemical corrosion rate. Moreover, EMIM+ provides an electrostatic shielding layer, leading to the preferential and ordered electrodeposition of Zn2+ along the Zn (002). Benefiting from this physico-chemo-electrochemically multifunctional interfacial layer, the Zn//Zn symmetric cells achieve a considerably extended lifespan of up to 1200 h at 5 mA cm−2 and 5 mA h cm−2, and more than 450 h even at an ultrahigh current density and large deposition capacity (10 mA cm−2 and 10 mA h cm−2). Zn//Cu asymmetric cells also exhibit excellent reversibility with a high coulombic efficiency of 99.75%. Furthermore, the physically, chemically, and electrochemically stabilized interface enables the AZMB with a quinone-based cathode to offer high specific capacity (256.9 mA h g−1) and a decent capacity retention rate (83.9% after 300 cycles).

A basic anion exchange resin , Amberlite IRA-900, was loaded with Pd(C 3 H 5 )(C 5 H 5 ) by an easy metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) approach to give Pd@IRA-900 catalyst after reduction at room temperature . Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy results showed a red shift of the absorption peak of Pd 2+ after the Pd precursor was loaded on the resin, indicating that a chemical reaction occurred between the precursor and the support. Pd nanoparticles with 2.6 nm of average size were well dispersed on the support. The Pd@IRA-900 catalyst showed high activity for different kinds of aryl halides in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions under mild and aerobic conditions. Excellent recyclability of Pd@IRA-900 catalyst was also observed in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of iodobenzene and phenylboronic acid . A bifunctional catalyst Pd@IRA-900(OH) was synthesized by pretreating the ion exchange resin support with NaOH before Pd loading, which successfully catalyzed the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of iodobenzene and phenylboronic acid without base under aerobic conditions.

Flexible broadband photodetectors are desired but challenging to be fabricated for next-generation wearable intelligent optoelectronic devices. Considering the narrow bandgap and strong light absorption, molybdenum telluride (MoTe 2 ) based photoelectrochemical photodetectors are successfully assembled by liquid phase exfoliation accompanied with the electrophoretic deposited method. This MoTe 2 -based photodetector shows a broadband detection in ultraviolet–near-infrared band, long-term stability within 18000 s, and fast response in millisecond-level (response time≈19 ms, recovery time≈26 ms). More importantly, even though the MoTe 2 photodetector is bent and twisted at a high degree for several hundred times, it still shows excellent flexibility with stable on-off switching characteristics. Additionally, this photodetector displays a good response for rotation angles in the range from 0° to 360°, and the extracted I ph maintain almost the same value approximately 0.97 µA cm −2 , suggesting an omnidirectional detection capability. This work demonstrates the proposed flexible photoanode shows a great potential in future broadband omnidirectional detection systems.

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.

This paper introduced a general method of etching suspended graphene by nonmetallic SiO x nanoparticles (SiO x NPs) in graphene synthesis. Effects of etching time, concentration of silica gel and type of graphene on the etching mode of graphene have been systematically considered with using as-grown graphene film on a silica gel coating copper as model system. Nonmetallic SiO x NPs acted as etchant plays important role in the in situ etching process during the fabrication of graphene. The etched multilayer graphene pattern can be modulated from large area films to a rectangle pattern by varying the Si concentration and etching time, while single layer graphene pattern alters little. The morphology and critical structure of SiO x etched graphene were characterized by Raman spectra, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectrum. The process and mechanism described here open the way for tailoring graphene via nanoparticles instead of metal, which show significant influence of the electrical properties of graphene.

Layered 2D semiconductors, such as graphene and transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), are receiving intensive attention owing to their great performance in electronic and optoelectronic application during the past few years. Among them, SnS has similar anisotropy to black phosphorus and high photoresponse in the near infrared range, rendering it as an ideal candidate for infrared photodetectors. In this work, large-size (up to 330 µm) and high-quality single-crystalline SnS nanoplates are synthesized successfully via controlled chemical vapor deposition technique and characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, confocal Raman system, atomic force microscope, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Photodetectors based on as-grown SnS nanoplates are fabricated with back-gated field effect transistors (FETs) configuration, exhibiting a high mobility of 17.1 cm 2 V −1 s −1 . Photodetectors based on the SnS FETs demonstrate excellent optoelectronic performance both in visible and near-infrared spectral range. Typically, photoresponsivity of 197.7 A W −1 , photoresponse time of 39 ms, and external quantum efficiency of 6.06 × 10 4 % are exhibited under the irradiation of 405 nm laser. The wide response range and ultrahigh sensitivity make the large-area single crystal SnS nanoplate a promising candidate for future application in optoelectronics.

The tetragonal phase Nb 2 O 5 (T-Nb 2 O 5 ) nanobelts with preferentially exposed the (010) facet have been successfully prepared for the first time by insitu topological reaction using the KNb 3 O 8 nanobelts as the precursor. Meanwhile, the transformation mechanism of the crystal structure and morphology from the layered KNb 3 O 8 nanobelt to the T-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt was revealed in detail by using XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, HRTEM, SAED, UV-vis DRS, EDX, XPS, and Raman spectra. In addition, Ag deposited T-Nb 2 O 5 (Ag/T-Nb 2 O 5 ) nanobelts were prepared by photo-reduction reaction. The photoelectrochemical properties of the T-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelts and Ag/T-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelts as a photocatalyst were evaluated by splitting water under simulated sunlight. The results show that the photocurrent density generated by the prepared Ag/T-Nb 2 O 5 sample is 48.1 µA∙cm −2 , which is 2.3 times that of the T-Nb 2 O 5 sample, and the prepared tetragonal phase T-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelts produce a photocurrent value 1.5 times that of the contrast orthogonal phase O-Nb 2 O 5 nanosheets. It indicates that the (010) facet of the tetragonal phase Nb 2 O 5 is one of the highest photocatalytic active surfaces, and the visible light utilization efficiency of the T-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt with Ag deposited on the surface has been significantly improved, which implies that it has potential applications in the field of photocatalysis.

The immobilization of sedimentary phosphorus (P) by capping sediments with amended calcium peroxide material (ACPM) and CaO 2 was investigated, the sediments and overlying water from a black-odor river. Under the capping with ACPM and CaO 2 , the pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) in the overlying water were higher than in the control. This contributed to the more loss of external P under the ACPM (the phosphate sorption was fitted well by the Langmuir equation, the maximum P sorption capacity up to 29.28 mg P g −1 ). Additionally, ACPM improves the decrease of the reduction materials (e.g., NH 4 + -N, Fe 2+ ) in the pore water compared to that associated with CaO 2 , resulting in a less obvious dissolved inorganic P (DIP) in the pore water, but the accumulation of DIP in the pore water with CaO 2 suggested an explosive release once the micro-environment conditions encounters adverse conditions. The sharp reduction of Fe/Al-P and Res-P contributes to the increase of DIP in the pore water, with a release of up to 390.60 mg P kg −1 DW (dry weight), whereas the value is only 62.55 mg P kg −1 DW when capped with ACPM. Correspondingly, the percentage of the bioavailable P to Tot-P decreases rapidly from 17.27% (control, 0–2 cm) to 7.21% (ACPM, 0–2 cm) and 10.57% (CaO 2 , 0–2 cm), indicating the obvious P immobilization. The implication is that the application of CaO 2 is not suitable for direct use, while the combination with other materials (e.g., WPS) is a better choice.
