The electronic properties and infrared emissivity of Zn 1-x Mg x O (x = 0, 0.0625, 0.125) were systematically investigated by using the first-principle calculation s based on density functional theory (DFT). The Zn 1-x Mg x O (x = 0, 0.0625, 0.125) powders were prepared by sol-gel method and their infrared emissivity in the wavelength of 8–14 μm was characterized. The results indicate that the infrared emissivity increases with the increase in Mg concentration, which is attributed to the reduction in conductivity and in the real part of dielectric function. Furthermore, the variation in conductivity and dielectric function has been well studied, and a reasonable method to calculate infrared emissivity of semiconductors has been established. It is expected that this method can be used for designing materials with different infrared emissivity and also applied for effectively guiding the experimental investigation.

Ordered mesoporous Fe/TiO 2 was prepared by an evaporation-induced self-assembly method. The iron ions were in situ embedded in the pore wall of the TiO 2 framework. The catalyst has excellent light-assisted Fenton catalytic performance under UV and visible light irradiation. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results showed that the TiO 2 samples have an ordered two-dimensional hexagonal pore structure and an anatase phase structure with high crystallinity . The ordered pore structure of the TiO 2 photocatalyst with a large specific surface area is beneficial to mass transfer and light harvesting. Furthermore, iron ions can be controlled by embedding them into the TiO 2 framework to prevent iron ion loss and inactivation. After five cycles, the reaction rate of the ordered mesoporous Fe/TiO 2 remained unchanged, indicating that the material has stable performance and broad application prospects for the purification of environmental pollutants .

The search for a reusable material as an efficient and economic catalyst for hydrocarbon oxidation is an important field of research. In this study, we investigated the highly effective combination of support and metalloporphyrin provided by manganese tetraphenylporphyrin adsorbed onto a precursor of freshly precipitated aluminium hydroxide, followed by conversion to a manganese porphyrin/boehmite compound. This was characterized using FT-IR, UV–vis spectroscopic techniques, N 2 BET analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron micrograph technique and thermal analysis. Aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane has been investigated using the compound as a catalyst under mild conditions and in the absence of any solvent and reductant. The results indicate that it has higher catalytic activity than manganese tetraphenylporphyrin and the corresponding chitosan-supported catalyst. In particular, the catalyst exhibits good atom economy for cyclohexane oxidation, high catalyst turnover number, and good ketone and alcohol selectivity. In particular, it has excellent reusability, with no change in original catalytic activity; a quantity of catalyst containing only 1 mg of Mn TPP can be reused 8 times under the promotion of beomite (BM). In addition, we examined the reaction conditions for the use of such nanoparticle-supported manganese tetraphenylporphyrin as a mild and environmental friendly oxidation catalyst.

The synergic effect between each component in composite membrane has created a new concept to fabricate membrane materials and widen their applications. Previous trials have suggested that micrometer-scale aramid fiber (MAF) could be effectively split into nanoscale aramid fiber (NAF) by dissolution in DMSO/KOH. Addressed herein is a time-saving approach to incorporate graphene oxide (GO) together with NAF to fabricate composite membranes through π–π stacking interactions. NAF–GO composite membranes (GO/NAF) containing gradient contents of GO have been prepared using absolute ethanol as proton donor, making the drying process facile and fast. The obtained composite membranes exhibit excellent hydrophilicity and enhanced mechanical performance. The chemical structure, morphology, crystallization and mechanical strength of GO/NAF composite membranes are characterized, respectively, and the hydrophilicity of GO/NAF is also evaluated by static water contact angle measurements. In the case of medium GO content (1 wt%) used in this study, the composite membrane possesses both optimal mechanical performance and better hydrophilicity compared to other supplementations, indicating that absolute ethanol is a promising proton donor for flocculation, which makes the post-treatment process more economic.

In this article, we present a simple and sensitive electrochemical DNA biosensor based on graphene oxide (GO)/chitosan (CS) hybrid nanocomposites modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E.coli O157:H7). The morphology and composition of GO and hybrid nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR). Cyclic voltammetry investigations indicated that the GO/CS/GCE showed excellent electron transfer ability and good linear relation. Under the optimal hybridization conditions, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) responses of ssDNA/GO/CS/GCE biosensor were in linear with the target DNA in the concentration range from 1×10 -14 to 1×10 -8 M with the detection limit as 3.584×10 -15 M (3σ). Moreover, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies revealed good specificity and excellent ability of ssDNA/GO/CS/GCE biosensor to distinguish complementary, 1-base mismatched DNA, 2-base mismatched DNA and multi-base mismatched DNA. The developed strategy in this research revealed that the GO/CS modified electrode possess excellent performance for detecting of Escherichia coli O157:H7 DNA.

The Mn dissolution issue in manganese-based materials (LMO) represents one of the most challenging barriers to further commercial development of electrochemical lithium extraction, which is an efficient and clean way of extracting Li from liquid resources. Here, by leveraging the advantages of composite materials, a novel combination of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and sulfonated ionic polymers (Nafion) is introduced to relieve the issues of electrode polarization and manganese dissolution, critical factors limiting the durability of LMO electrodes. By modifying with rGO to enhance electronic conductivity and surface characteristics, and capturing dissolved Mn 2+ through Nafion, the modified electrode showed significant improvement in cycling stability and lithium adsorption capacity. Experimental results confirm that this synergistic approach effectively mitigates polarization effects and controls disproportionation reactions, thereby enhancing the stability of the lithium extraction process, revealing a notable increase in electrode capacity retention from 79.04 % to 94.64 % after 30 cycles. Additionally, through DFT calculations and XPS analysis, the effectiveness of the manganese capture strategy is validated. This work presents an effective new strategy to extend the lifespan of manganese-based electrodes and enhance their adsorption performance.

In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were embedded into the hydrophilic poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibrous mats to achieve sustained release of water soluble drug from hydrophilic nanofibrous mats. MSNs were successfully prepared based on a sol–gel method. Water soluble drug naproxen sodium was then loaded into the mesopores of the MSNs, and different amounts of the drug-loaded MSNs were further incorporated into the fibers by the electrospinning process. Morphology of the nanofibrous mats was investigated, and it was found that all the fibers exhibited fibrous structure. Interestingly, lots of protrusions could be observed from the scanning electron microscopy images with high magnification, and numbers of the protrusions increased with the increasing of loading ratios of the MSNs from 5 to 15%. In addition, the wetting behaviors of the nanofibrous mats were also measured, and the water contact angles of all the mats were measured to be 0°. Finally, the drug release results indicated that all the PVA/MSNs composite nanofibrous mats showed an obviously prolonged drug release. The optimal loading ratio of the MSNs in the nanofibers was 10% due to the slowest drug release rate. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 47922.

In this work, we demonstrate a facile approach to synthesize high-performance and stable TiO 2 @PANI core-shell nanowires (NWs) as flexible electrodes for solid-state supercapacitors (SCs). The TiO 2 @PANI core-shell NWs are grown directly on highly conductive carbon cloth, which not only give efficient charge transport and accessible diffusion of the electrolyte, but also provide large surface area and active sites for redox reaction as well as good strain accommodation. Such these features enable them to deliver a large areal capacitance of 520.3 mF/cm 2 at 0.5 mA/cm 2 with outstanding rate capability. Furthermore, a flexible and stable solid-state SC device based on these TiO 2 @PANI core-shell NWs is also demonstrated. The as-fabricated solid-state SC device yields a remarkable volumetric capacitance of 898.4 mF/cm 3 , excellent flexibility and significant cycling stability with more than 97.2% retention of its capacitance after 10000 cycles. We believe that these findings may open up new opportunities to prepare high-performance PANI-based electrodes for flexible solid-state SCs.

The rapid development of artificial intelligent and internet of things calls for high-performance multifunctional devices for synchronous detection of a wide variety of environmental signals, such as gas, light, and humidity. Herein, highly crystallized tin dioxide (SnO 2 ) microwires (MWs) with low density of point defects are synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition method and constructed into a multifunctional device for photo and humidity sensing. The device shows excellent photoelectric performances, for example, ultralow dark current of ≈10 −13 A, ultrahigh on–off ratio of >10 7 , UV/visible rejection ratio of R 300 nm / R 400 nm > 10 7 , specific detectivity ( D *) of 1.16 × 10 15 Jones, linear dynamic range (LDR) of 152 dB, high responsivity of 18 A W −1 , and fast photoresponse speed of t rise / t decay = 2.7 µs/2.5 ms at 5 V bias. Furthermore, the p-CuI/n-SnO 2 heterojunction shows outstanding self-powered properties, such as responsivity of 8.98 mA W −1 , specific detectivity of 1.98 × 10 12 Jones and LDR of 106 dB at 0 V bias. Additionally, the SnO 2 MWs also show high sensitivity to ambient humidity changes. Therefore, the SnO 2 MWs show high potential for multifunctional applications, such as UV photodetector and humidity sensor.

The effect of calcination temperature on the coating layer and the phase of the alloy matrix is the main problem to improve the heat treatment process of SMCs and obtain excellent magnetic properties . In this study, FeNiMo@Al 2 O 3 powders which were coated by sol-gel and calcined at 900–1300 °C were prepared and these powders were pressed into SMCs. The results showed that the surface of the powder was uniformly coated with Al 2 O 3 . As the heat treatment temperature increases, the phase of the coating changed from AlOOH to γ-Al 2 O 3 , δ-Al 2 O 3 , θ-Al 2 O 3 , and α-Al 2 O 3 . Meanwhile, the new phase γ-Fe, Ni appeared in the alloy matrix. The magnetic permeability of the sample is very stable in the frequency range of 10–500 kHz. The magnetic loss decreases first and then increases, with a minimum at 1100 °C. The permeability and magnetic loss of the sample pressed from the powder obtained by calcination at 1100 °C are 321.78 mw/cm 3 and 87.61 (50 kHz, 100 mT) at the typical industrial application conditions of Iron–Nickel SMCs. The microstructure and the magnetic properties show that the obtained α-Al 2 O 3 have excellent insulation and heat resistance. This resulted in a significant reduction in core losses of FeNiMo SMCs.

Two kinds of TiO2 nanobelts were prepared from commercial P-25 powders via an alkaline hydrothermal method with and without an acid etching process. The uncauterized nanobelts (TNs) exhibited a smooth surface, and mixed phases of anatase and TiO2 (B), whereas the cauterized ones (CTNs) displayed a rough surface and a pure anatase structure. TNs and CTNs were then deposited onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface with a conductive adhesive (CA), and the resulting chemically modified electrodes exhibited electrocatalytic activities in the oxidation of nucleobases in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7.4. For guanine and adenine, well-defined oxidation peaks were observed in voltammetric measurements at about +0.62 and +0.89 V, respectively, at a potential sweep rate of 100 mV s−1, whereas for cytosine, uracil and thymine, the voltammetric features were not obvious. The average surface coverages (Γ) of guanine and adenine on the CTNs/CA/GCE electrode were estimated to be 4.75 × 10−10 and 7.44 × 10−10 mol cm−2, respectively, which were about twice those at the TNs/CA/GCE electrode. The enhanced activity of the CTN-based electrode towards purine nucleobase oxidation was ascribed to the large specific surface area and anatase structures with enhanced (001) facets of the CTN that facilitated adsorption of the analytes onto the electrode surface and charge transport through the electrode surface layer.
