The synthesis of monomers with two epoxy structures (EIA) was successfully achieved by adopting holo-biobased feedstocks and in situ solvolysis reaction. The molecular structure of EIA was subjected to characterization through the use of infrared spectroscopy (IR), mass spectrometry (MS), and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy ( 1 H NMR). The EIA was employed as the epoxy monomers for the synthesis of the grafted compatibilizer, resulting in the successful preparation of a fully bio-based and high epoxy value grafted compatibilizer (PLA-g-EIA (PLE)). The effects of varying proportions of the monomer (EIA) and Bis(tert-butylperoxy-1-methylethyl)-benzene (BIBP) on the dynamic grafting reaction were investigated systematically using IR, 1 H NMR, melt flow index (MFR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore, the compatible effects of PLE on the mechanical performances, rheological properties, and microstructure of bamboo powder (BP) enhanced PLA composites were also investigated. Furthermore, a series of comparisons were conducted between PLE and a homemade PLG under identical conditions. The grafting degree (GD) of PLE reached 1.28 % under identical conditions (monomer mass addition of 3 %, monomer: initiator mass ratio of 20:3), whereas the GD of homemade PLA-g-GMA (PLG) was only 0.82 %. In comparison to PLG with varying contents, the prepared PLE markedly augmented the interfacial adhesion between two phases, thereby promoting an enhancement of impact, tensile, and flexural strength. Furthermore, the presence of PLE (5 wt%) enhanced the impact strength by up to 37 %, tensile strength by up to 3.03 MPa, and flexural strength by up to 6.16 MPa of PLA/BP composites compared to the absence of the compatibilizers. Meanwhile, PLE (5 wt%) was 1.68, 2.16, and 2.02 times more effective than PLG in enhancing the notch impact, tensile, and bending strength of composites, respectively.

Various porous adsorbent materials have shown excellent adsorption performance for the removal of organic micro-pollutants in water. However, the practical application was hindered by the high cost or slow adsorption kinetics for most of porous adsorbents. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop economic adsorbent materials with characteristic like low-cost, easier preparation method, excellent adsorption kinetics etc . Herein, based on the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction, we reported three novel hydrophilic organic porous adsorbent frameworks (PAF-210, PAF-211 and PAF-212) with high Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area (956 ∼ 1384 m 2 /g) for phenolic micro-pollutants (bisphenol A (BPA), 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and 2-naphthol (2-NO)) adsorption in water, which were prepared by using cheap trimethyl orthoformate (TMOF) as crosslinker and one-step simple ball milling synthetic method under room temperature within 15 min. Rich oxygen content promotes the resulting polymers to possess excellent hydrophilicity and wettability through water vapor adsorption and water contact angle analysis. The excellent hydrophilicity and proper porous properties made the resulting frameworks suitable as porous organic adsorbents to rapidly remove organic phenolic micro-pollutants from water. Among the resulting polymers, the PAF-210 exhibited ultra-fast adsorption (>94.0 % within 5 s), ultra-rapid adsorption kinetics with pseudo-second-order rate constants (K 2 , up to 7.72g/mg min −1 for 2,4-DCP), high pollutant adsorption capacity (up to 867.03 mg g −1 for BPA) and excellent recyclability (10 cycles with slight loss in adsorption capacity) through systematically characterization. The adsorption performances of PAF-210 are much better than these of the commercial activated carbons and β-cyclodextrin-based porous adsorbents (K 2 = 1.50g/mg min −1 for P-CDP) etc . The favorable hydrophilicity, surface wettability, and adsorption performance of PAF-210 were significantly better than the comparative material constructed by using benzene and formaldehyde dimethyl acetal (FDA) through conventional thermal synthetic method, which is a very classic synthesis strategy in the field of porous materials. More importantly, the PAF-210 exhibited relatively superior adsorption performance on BPA, and it still presented excellent adsorption performance (removal efficiency ≥ 96.8 % within 5 s after 10 cycles) even at the safe range of BPA quantified in drinking water (BPA≤10 μg L −1 , Standards for drinking water quality, GB5749-2022, China). XPS analysis and theoretical simulations proved that the excellent adsorption performance and ultra-fast adsorption rate stem from interactions including π-π interactions, hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions between PAF-210 and micro-pollutants.

In this investigation, four classical chemical oxidizing agents—hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), Fenton reagent, sodium persulfate (Na 2 S 2 O 8 ), and potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 )—were employed to remediate soils contaminated with BTEXs (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene). Simultaneously, ecotoxicity assays were integrated to comprehensively evaluate the consequences of the remediation efforts. The various oxidizing agents demonstrated efficient removal of BTEXs from the soil at appropriate concentrations. Post-remediation ecotoxicity evaluations indicated that H 2 O 2 and KMnO 4 treatments had the least phytotoxic effects on soil. On the contrary, high doses of Fenton and Na 2 S 2 O 8 treatments significantly increased the phytotoxicity of the soil. Each of the four oxidative interventions led to a reduced survival rate among earthworms, with a particularly pronounced effect observed at high concentrations of Na 2 S 2 O 8 . The oxidation of water-soluble substances in the soil by Fenton and Na 2 S 2 O 8 exerted a significant inhibitory impact on the luminous intensity of luminescent bacteria. Conversely, the remediation with KMnO 4 substantially alleviated the aquatic biotoxicity of soil leachate. This deleterious effect was mitigated by the application of low concentrations of H 2 O 2 and Fenton. However, the utilization of KMnO 4 resulted in a significant reduction in the diversity of soil microbial communities. Graphical Abstract

Beef flavor profiles are strongly influenced by cooking methods and lipid composition. However, the effect of instant-boiling on the aroma of different beef slices was unclear. This study investigated the lipid profiles and instant-boiling volatile profiles of chuck tender (M. Supraspinatus ), sirloin (M. Longissimus dorsi ) and silverside (M. Biceps femoris ). Quantitative lipidomics identified 336 lipid molecular species, of which 84–112 were quantitatively different among the three beef slices. Sirloin had lower phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol and free fatty acids than chuck tender and silverside. The unsaturated fatty acid acyl chains in phosphatidylethanolamine differed significantly. Solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-O-MS) identified hexanal, octanal, nonanal, decanal, (E)-2-octenal, (E)-2-nonenal, (E)-2-undecenal, (E,E)-2,4-nonadienal, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, 2-pentylfuran and acetoin as the aroma-active compounds of instant-boiled beef. Unsaturated free fatty acids and phosphatidylglycerols with unsaturated fatty acid residues positively correlated with the aroma-active compounds and might be crucial in flavor differences among the three beef slices. These findings provide greater understanding of the lipid and instant-boiling aroma-active compound profiles in chuck tender, sirloin and silverside, and reflect the suitability of different beef slices for instant-boiling from the aroma perspective.

Octaphenylsilsesquioxane (PH-POSS) and octa(γ-methacryloxypropyl)silsesquioxane (MA-POSS) were successfully synthesized by hydrolytic condensation of phenyltrichlorosilane and γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 1 H and 29 Si nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrum. Morphology, degradation behavior, thermal, and mechanical properties of hybrid composites were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), polarized optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), surface contact angle (SCA), tensile, and impact testing. Domains of PH-POSS and MA-POSS dispersed in the matrix with a wide size distribution in a range of 0.1–0.5 µm, while PH-POSS exhibited a preferential dispersion. Because of the possible homopolymerization of MA-POSS during the melt blending, the glass transition temperature of polycarbonate (PC)/MA-POSS composites remained nearly unchanged with respect to PC/PH-POSS composites that showed a depression of T g due to the plasticization effect. It is interesting to note that the incorporation of POSS retarded the degradation rates of PC composites and thus significantly improved the thermal stabilities. Si O fractions left during POSS degradations were a key factor governing the formation of a gel network layer on the exterior surface. This layer possessed more compact structures, higher thermal stabilities, and some thermal insulation. In addition, percentage residues at 700°C ( C 700 ) significantly increased from 10.8% to 15.8–22.1% in air. Fracture stress of two composites showed a slight improvement, and the impact strength of them decreased monotonically with the increase of POSS loading. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Ultra-deep desulfurization for the generation of clean petrol, diesel, and benzene remains a significant and challenging goal globally. Cu-containing materials have emerged as a promising desulfurization strategy due to their high adsorption capabilities. However, existing reduction technologies often lead to over-reduction. In this study, we reveal an intriguing and unexpected property of Y zeolite following ammonium ion exchange. The in situ generation of ammonia from ammonia pools may alter the location of copper species and modify their acid characteristics. We encapsulated various amounts of Cu into CuY zeolite, labelled as H-Cu X -Y(APE), using a facile self-reduction strategy. Notably, H-Cu 5.71 -Y(APE) exhibits an exceptional breakthrough sulfur capacity for thiophene, achieving 4.17 mg/g, nearly double that of traditional Cu-HY(H 2 ). XPS analysis following APE reduction indicates a high proportion of Cu + species in H-Cu 5.71 -Y(APE). In situ calcination FT-IR provided detailed insights into the chemical transformation of Cu 2+ species during APE reduction. Furthermore, CO-FTIR analysis shows that the Cu + content in the supercages of H-Cu 5.71 -Y(APE) reaches a maximum of 62.3 %. Py-FT-IR reveals the strong Brønsted acid content in H-Cu X -Y(APE) significantly increases. The desulfurization mechanism of H-Cu X -Y(APE) was thoroughly investigated using in situ FT-IR, demonstrating that the protonation and copolymerization of thiophene occurred on HCuY(APE) and could be effectively suppressed by adjusting the amount of copper. This work presents a promising solution for efficient ultra-deep desulfurization using an in situ NH 3 reduction method from ammonia pools.

Catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) of lignin aiming monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs) is attractive. Five metal oxide catalysts (named c-Nb 3 Al x ) with different Nb/Al ratios, c-Nb, c-Al, c-Nb 3 Al 1 , c-Nb 3 Al 2 and c-Nb 3 Al 3 were synthesized and applied to CFP of lignin. Among these catalysts, c-Nb 3 Al 2 exhibits excellent deoxygenation ability and the highest selectivity for MAHs (77.0 %). The selectivity and deoxygenation capacity of c-Nb 3 Al 2 for MAHs were higher than H-ZSM-5 (25) as a control. It was attributed to the large external surface area (90 m 2 g -1 ), mesoporous structure (16.15 nm) and high acid amount (2.00 mmol NH 3 /g cat ) of c-Nb 3 Al 2 . The c-Nb 3 Al 2 has good stability and can be regenerated by simple calcination . The selectivity of the regenerated c-Nb 3 Al 2 for MAHs was still high at 70.1 %. Guaiacol was used to compare the difference in the deoxygenation capacity of c-Nb 3 Al 2 and H-ZSM-5.

High-resolution separation of numerous isomers is highly desirable for their high-quality analysis, yet challenging, which puts forward high requirements on the precise design of stationary phase. Herein, flexible 4- tert -butylcalix[n]arenes (TBCx[n]s) with different cavities have been intelligently integrated with in-situ grown UiO-66 coatings, to investigate their separation efficiencies for alkane and substituted benzene isomers. The modifications of UiO-66 with TBCx[n]s have made up for the deficiency of UiO-66 on the separation of ethylbenzene and styrene. The effects of TBCx[n]s on the separation performance of UiO-66@TBCx[n]s have demonstrated distinct regularities, i.e., the effects of TBCx[6] are superior to those of TBCx[8], while the TBCx[4] is the least effective. The baseline separation of all analytes has been achieved by the UiO-66@TBCx[6] column with enhanced selectivity and improved separation resolution (Rs). For the six groups of isomers that are most difficult to separate, the corresponding selectivity and Rs are greater than 1.09 and 5.48, respectively, confirming the outstanding separation performance of the UiO-66@TBCx[6] column and the feasibility of integrating soft supramolecule and rigid MOF.

Microporous zeolites are commonly employed as catalysts for the benzylation of arenes and benzyl alcohol. However, their catalytic efficiency is often compromised by diffusion limitations, particularly in reactions involving larger arenes. In this study, we developed metal-ion modified HY zeolites using Zn, Mg, and Ni as dopants and investigated their catalytic performance in the benzylation of a range of arenes, including toluene, benzene, mesitylene, p-xylene and with benzyl alcohol (BzOH). The structural and acidic properties of the modified HY zeolites were characterized using a combination of techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N₂ adsorption–desorption isotherms, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ammonia temperature-programmed desorption (NH₃-TPD), and proton magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H MAS NMR) spectroscopy. The presence of catalytically active Brønsted acid sites (BAS) was detected by 1H MAS NMR spectroscopy and it was demonstrated that the HY zeolite's acidity is considerably modulated by the addition of metal ions. The catalytic evaluations indicated that the metal-ion modified HY zeolites exhibited superior activity compared to unmodified HY zeolite, with the catalytic performance following the order Zn/HY > Ni/HY > Mg/HY > HY for the benzylation of benzyl alcohol with mesitylene. Further investigation into the mechanism revealed that the synergistic effect of metal ions and acidity plays a crucial role in enhancing the accessibility of arenes to the surface catalytic sites and thereby improving catalytic performance. These findings underscore the importance of the metal-acidity synergy in optimizing the catalytic efficacy of modified HY zeolites for selective benzylation reactions.

In this paper, ZnS/NiO p-n heterojunction microspheres were fabricated via a two-step hydrothermal approach. The sensing properties of composites with different ZnS contents were investigated by regulating the ratio of Zn. When containing 25 mol% ZnS, the ZnS/NiO nanosphere sensor achieved a response of 125. The response was improved by a factor of about 83.3 compared to pure NiO. The sensor functions optimally at a temperature of 225 ℃, and it possesses excellent selectivity, a rapid response/recovery time (49/44 s), and long-term stability. Therefore, this paper provides a hydrothermal method to prepare ZnS/NiO nanocomposites with heterojunction, specifically designed to detect n-butanol. After performing a series of characterizations, it was determined that the enhancement of the gas-sensitive properties could be related to the construction of ZnS/NiO heterojunctions and the increase in oxygen vacancies.

Superwetting materials play a crucial part in the fields of chemistry and materials science and draw increasing attention. Among the various applications, superwetting materials demonstrated up-and-coming potential in oil spill remediation. Herein, we report on the preparation of silver-coated copper mesh via a facile chemical deposition and annealing treatment approach that requires neither complex devices nor modification with toxic organic molecules. The resulting sample exhibited remarkable water repulsion (water contact angle of ~ 158° and sliding angle of ~ 1°) and oil affinity (oil contact angle of ~ 0°), contributing to superior separation ability toward various oil–water mixtures (hexane, toluene, benzene, chloroform, tetrachloromethane, kerosene, gasoline, diesel) or effectively cleaning up the floating or underwater oil spill. Moreover, the resulting silver-coated superhydrophobic/superoleophilic copper (Ag-coated SS Cu) mesh demonstrated great durability upon the water flow impact or the abrasion test and was able to continuously separate the toluene–water mixtures over 20 times with an efficiency over 97%. In addition, the sample readily prevented surface fouling via self-cleaning process and exhibited antibacterial ability toward Escherichia coli , Staphylococcus aureus , and Bacillus subtilis as witnessed by the corresponding bacteriostatic circle (11.38 ± 0.76 mm, 12.65 ± 0.68 mm, and 12.87 ± 0.72 mm, respectively) in the Petri dish.

Microwave thermal regeneration is an emerging technique for activated carbon regeneration, which has been extensively investigated experimentally. However, relevant simulation receives limited attention, with the mechanism of microwave thermal regeneration not very well understood. In this study, a multiphase, porous media model coupling electromagnetic , heat and mass transfer is established to study microwave thermal regeneration characteristics of spent activated carbon. The results show that inhomogeneous electromagnetic distribution in the cavity is the main factor contributing to the inhomogeneity of the sample temperature. The desorption of adsorbate in the hot spot region (dry basis) mainly relies on microwave radiation heating. The desorption of adsorbate in the cold spot region (wet basis) depends on heat conduction and convection in the hot spot region, as well as capillary diffusion caused by the concentration gradient . In addition, the uniformity of sample temperature distribution is optimized by rotating microwave thermal regeneration, and energy consumption is reduced by about 58 %. Therefore, this model can provide technical guidance for optimizing the microwave thermal regeneration process of spent activated carbon while explaining the mechanism of microwave regeneration.
