Microarc oxidation (MAO) coatings incorporating hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanoparticles were synthesized on Mg-Li alloys. The effects of h-BN nanoparticle concentration on the structure, phase composition, and tribological properties of the MAO coatings were systematically investigated. The results indicate that the addition of h-BN nanoparticles induces the formation of protrusions on the coating surface, varied in size and distribution with the concentration of h-BN particles. The protrusions are advantageous for enhancing the wear resistance of the coating, owing to the effective reduction of the contact area and the lubricating impact of the released h-BN particles during wear. The thickness and hardness of the coating contained h-BN particles are significantly elevated. At an optimal h-BN concentration of 7 g/L, the composite coating exhibits the lowest average coefficient of friction (COF = 0.59) and the minimum wear rate (W = 2.6 × 10 −6 mm 3 /N·m), thereby demonstrating superior tribological performance.

Creating high-quality and highly adaptable self-lubricating surfaces at the interface of mechanical components is significant in extending the lifespan of equipment. Due to the limitations of the performance of a single nanofiller, its enhanced polymer-based coatings often struggle to meet the requirements of harsh working environments. In this study, the 2D/2D nanohybrid of graphitic carbon-nitrogen (g-C 3 N 4 ) supporting h-BN nanosheets (BNNSs) was prepared using the facile calcination method. Furthermore, its tribological enhancement on epoxy (EP) composite coating was evaluated by sliding against 440 C steel ball. The “soft phase” of g-C 3 N 4 and “hard phase” of BNNSs in 2D/2D BNNSs/g-C 3 N 4 nanohybrid could integrate the multiple advantages and provide synergistic enhancement for epoxy self-lubricating composite coating. The BNNSs/g-C 3 N 4 demonstrated the optimal lubricating properties for EP compared to single BNNSs or g-C 3 N 4 . Compared with the pure EP coating, the friction coefficient and wear rate of the 0.5 wt% BNNSs/g-C 3 N 4 /EP coating were reduced by approximately 74.5 % and 80.9 %, respectively. The outstanding tribological properties of BNNSs/g-C 3 N 4 /EP were mainly due to the synergistic enhancement of BNNSs and g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets and the lubricating effect of high-quality transfer film.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has emerged as a critical thermal management material in electrical insulation systems due to its superior thermal conductivity and dielectric properties. Nevertheless, suboptimal filler-matrix interfacial compatibility hinders both thermal conductivity enhancement and dielectric performance in composites. This study introduces an innovative plasma bubble treatment strategy, utilizing the discharge within bubbles to simultaneously achieve h-BN exfoliation and surface hydroxylation. By producing plasma in a 3% H2O2 solution with Ar/O2 mixed gas, hydroxyl groups are successfully grafted onto h-BN surfaces. This surface modification improves the silane grafting efficiency with KH560, resulting in improved filler dispersion within the epoxy resin (EP) and the introduction of deep charge traps in interfacial regions. Under 9.77 W discharge power, composites containing 20 wt% h-BN treated for 10 min exhibits optimal performance characteristics. The modified composite attains a 327% thermal conductivity of pure EP while showing superior dielectric properties with a 12.4% increase in breakdown strength relative to untreated composite. These findings present an effective surface engineering approach for developing high-performance polymer composites for electrical insulation applications.

Background. Ficus pandurata H. (Moraceae) is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine as a healthy food condiment or a medicine for treatment of various diseases including inflammation. Objective. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the phytochemical compositions and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of crude water (FPW) and ethanolic extracts (FPE) from Ficus pandurata H. Methods. Phytochemical compositions were identified by a high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry method (HPLC-ESI-MS). The antioxidant activities were evaluated by diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical assays, and the anti-inflammatory activities were evaluated by paw edema and levels of inflammatory mediator TNF-α and PGE2 in monosodium urate (MSU) crystal-induced rats. Results. Six compounds were identified by HPLC-MS method, and abundance of phenolics was found in FPE. The FPE showed concentration-dependent-significant scavenging of DPPH and hydroxyl radicals with IC50 values 118.4 and 192.9 μg/mL, respectively. The FPE treatment significantly inhibited the paw edema and the production of TNF-α and PGE2 in MSU crystal-induced rats. Conclusion. The FPE exerted stronger antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities which may be attributed to its high phenolic content.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) has attracted wide attention for medical application due to its biocompatibility and bioactivity. However, the infection problems of HA remain among the leading reasons for implantation failure. Thus, it is urgent to endow HA biomaterials with antibacterial activity. Herein, the high antibacterial activity was achieved by introducing trace Mn3+ and H vacancy couples in HA through a facile heat-treatment strategy in air. The theoretical results indicated that Mn3+ was preferentially substituted for the Ca(2) site in the HA structure with a charge-compensating H vacancy appearing at the adjacent OH− site. The antibacterial tests showed that Mn-HA possessed antibacterial activity towards both E. coli and S. aureus with trace Mn content at the ppm level, and implied that Mn3+ and centers may play an important role in the antibacterial process. The Mn3+ and couples in Mn-HA, serving as oxidative and reductive centers respectively, could then collectively participate in the CoQ/CoQH2 redox cycling and synergistically facilitate the accumulation of CoQ˙− and ROS radicals. This enhanced ROS production was the main factor to endow Mn-HA with efficient antibacterial activity. Moreover, the in vitro bioactivity assay showed that Mn-HA materials exhibited enhanced osteogenic activity and good biocompatibility. Therefore, this work not only provides a feasible method to control the oxidation state of Mn elements in HA, but also proposes a novel trace Mn3+-doped HA for potential applications in tissue engineering.

Series of triphenylene derivatives with multiple NH groups 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5a and 5b were designed and synthesised by simple procedures in high yields. Their structures were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS) and elemental analysis. Their mesophase behaviours were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, polarising optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The triphenylene derivatives 3a and 3b with two NH groups and triphenylene derivatives 4a and 4b with three NH groups possess excellent mesomorphic properties. Compounds 4a and 4b exhibited wider mesophase than compounds 3a and 3b. Triphenylene derivatives 5a and 5b with five NH groups have no mesomorphic properties. These results suggested the units of hydrogen bonds played the crucial roles on mesomorphic properties and acylthiosemicarbazide group with three NH groups was a good functional group for producing excellent mesomorphic properties.

To significantly improve the tribological performance of epoxy resin (EP), a novel h-BN/MoS2composite was successfully synthesized using spherical MoS2particles with lamellar self-assembly generated through the calcination method, followed by utilizing the “bridging effect” of a silane coupling agent to achieve a uniform and vertically oriented decoration of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanosheets on the MoS2surface. The chemical composition and microstructure of the h-BN/MoS2composite were systematically investigated. Furthermore, the enhancement effect of composites with various contents on the frictional properties of epoxy coatings was studied, and the mechanism was elucidated. The results demonstrate that the uniform decoration of h-BN enhances the chemical stability of MoS2in friction tests, and the MoS2prevents oxidation and maintains its self-lubricating properties. Consequently, due to the protective effect of h-BN and the synergistic interaction between h-BN and MoS2, the 5 wt % h-BN/MoS2composite exhibited the best friction and wear resistance when incorporated into EP. Compared to pure EP coatings, its average friction coefficient and specific wear rate (0.026 and 1.5 × 10−6mm3N−1m−1, respectively) were significantly reduced. Specifically, the average friction coefficient decreased by 88% and the specific wear rate decreased by 99%, highlighting the superior performance of the h-BN/MoS2-enhanced epoxy composite coating.

Due to the unique safety qualities, solid composite polymer electrolyte (SCPE) has achieved considerable attentions to fabricate high-energy-density lithium metal batteries, but its overall performance still has to be improved. Herein, a high lithium salt content poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based SCPE was developed, enhanced by hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanosheets, presenting perfect electrochemical performance, fast ion transport, and efficient inhibition of lithium dendrite growth. The optimized SCPE (PVDF-L70-B5) could deliver high ionic conductivity (2.98×10 −4 S cm −1 ), ultra-high Li + ion transfer number (0.62), wide electrochemical stability window (5.24 V), and strong mechanical strength (3.45 MPa) at room temperature. Density functional theory calculation further confirmed that the presence of h-BN could promote the dissociation of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide lithium (LiTFSI) and the rapid transfer of Li + ions. As a result, the assembled symmetric Li/Li battery and asymmetric Li/LiFePO 4 battery using PVDF-L70-B5 SCPEs both exhibited high reversible capacity, long-term cycle stability, and high-rate performance when cycled at 60 or 30 °C. The designed SCPEs will open up a new route to synthesize solid-state lithium batteries with high energy density and high safety. Graphical Polymer electrolyte : High lithium salt content poly(vinylidene fluoride)-based solid composite polymer electrolyte enhanced by hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets is prepared, which presents perfect electrochemical performance, fast ion transport, and efficient inhibition of lithium dendrite growth.

Graphene oxide (GO)-based nanocomposite films via facile and appropriate self-assembly methods have demonstrated many potential applications in wide fields. This study demonstrates a facile and clean route to prepare graphene oxide-dye composite films using Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique at room temperature. By electrostatic interaction between cationic dye molecules and negatively charged GO sheets as well as π-π interactions, GO-dye composite LB films were formed spontaneously. As a soft platform for dye molecules, GO sheets induce dye molecules to self-assemble and form highly ordered structures containing H-aggregates and/or J-aggregates. The morphological characterization results show the formation of GO-dye composite films with smooth and dense surfaces. And the spectral results reveal that dye molecules stack in well-organized aggregates on the surface of GO sheets corresponding to monomers in bulk solution. The present research work about GO-dye composite films by LB method may provide new clues to prepare organized composite films and demonstrate potential applications in many fields.

Clay is a rich aluminosilicate resource with unique advantages as a raw material for zeolites production. However, synthesizing nanosized single-crystalline zeolites through a simple approach using clay remains a significant challenge. In this paper, acid-washed montmorillonite (MSR) was used to prepare nano-H-ZSM-5 single crystals with high crystallinity, uniform grain size and permeable straight pores under the induction of a small amount of organic template tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH). Through temperature-staged treatment, the nucleation and growth process of zeolite were decoupled, ultimately achieving precise control over the size of the nano-single crystals. Mechanistic study showed that the low-temperature aging process produces smaller structural units which probably derived from the geopolymer topology of the clay, providing more active sites for zeolite nucleation, leading to the rapid crystallization during the high-temperature process. The porous structure promotes material diffusion, inhibits aromatic cycling and reduces carbon formation in the pores. The large specific surface area and nanoscale multilayer pore structure delay carbon accumulation and increase carbon holding capacity. These properties make nano-ZSM-5 single crystals an excellent choice for high olefin selectivity and long catalytic life in the methanol-to-olefin reaction. This synthetic route provides a general strategy for preparing nanosized zeolite single crystals from clay.

High-density h-BN@SiC/ZrO 2 composites with different ZrO 2 contents were prepared by hot-pressing. The microstructure, flexural strength, thermal shock behavior, thermal expansion properties and corrosion resistance of the composites in molten steel were systematically investigated. The construction of the h-BN@SiC core-shell structure is conducive to the formation of a uniform and continuous network structure during the sintering process. This significantly improves the sintering performance of h-BN-based materials and enables the low-temperature preparation of high-density products. Moreover, the uniform distribution of SiC can effectively coordinate the thermal matching between h-BN and ZrO 2 , significantly improving the high-temperature performance of the material. During the corrosion process, the SiC network structure can effectively bind ZrO 2 and BN particles, effectively resist the erosion of high-temperature molten steel, and its erosion resistance increases with the increase of ZrO 2 content. Especially, when the ZrO 2 content reached 40%, the erosion depth of the sample was merely 160.61 μm after being immersed in static molten steel for 120 min. Moreover, the h-BN@SiC/ZrO 2 composite with 30 wt% ZrO 2 demonstrates superior comprehensive performance: It achieves a flexural strength of 159.63 MPa, retains 87.08% of its original strength after thermal shock testing, exhibits a low apparent porosity of 3.37%, and possesses an average coefficient of thermal expansion as low as 3.95 × 10 −6 /K −1 . The comprehensive properties of h-BN@SiC/ZrO 2 composites were obviously improved by SiC network structure.

Mercury is one of the few terrestrial planets in the solar system with a magnetic field, yet the energy source to power its core dynamo remains unclear to date. Si, C, and possibly H are the top candidate light elements for its liquid core. Here, we showed experimentally that Si, C, and H in Fe-Si-C and Fe-Si-C-H liquids share a simultaneous solubility at 9–21 GPa, 1,400°C–2,200°C, and this solubility decreases with decreasing temperature. When exceeding the simultaneous solubility, light elements will exsolve from the Fe melt as elemental phases such as diamond, graphite, silicon, and H 2 . We infer that if Mercury had an early liquid core primarily composed of saturated Fe-Si-C-(H) liquid, subsequent cooling would lead to continuous light element exsolution in its liquid core. The gravitational potential released by the exsolved light elements can drive the compositional convection and power its long-term core dynamo.
