Furfuryl alcohol (FOL) is commercially available by selective hydrogenation of furfural (FAL). A variety of catalysts have been developed for such purpose, among which Cu-based catalysts show superior catalytic performance. However, copper nanoparticles with complex valence states are easy to agglomerate during hydrogenation reaction, which might have a negative influence on the catalytic performance. The carbon coating is an efficient strategy to prevent the sintering of Cu-based catalysts. Herein, a strategy based on the thermal decomposition of Cu-EDTA complex was designed to prepare carbon encapsulated Cu-based catalysts. The prepared catalysts were applied in the selective hydrogenation of FAL to FOL in the batch reactor. The results showed that a nearly quantitative conversion of FAL with a selectivity of 98.7 % towards FOL was achieved using CuO x @NC-150 (molar ratio of Cu: Na 4 EDTA·4H 2 O=2:1; obtained by oxidative activation at 150 °C) under 140 °C, 3 MPa in 4 h. The performance was comparable to that of the commercial CuCr 2 O 4 catalyst under the identical conditions. In addition, the developed carbon encapsulated Cu-based catalysts exhibited a slightly better stability than CuCr 2 O 4 catalyst in terms of FOL yield in five consecutive cycles. XPS and XAES characterizations implied that the presence of a suitable surface ratio of Cu + /(Cu + +Cu 0 ) of the prepared catalyst may contribute to the selective hydrogenation of FAL to FOL.

Transferrin (TRF) is the main iron-containing protein in plasma, responsible for carrying iron from digestive absorption and released from the erythrocyte degradation. The plasma TRF levels can be used to diagnose anemia and monitor treatment. Herein, a sandwich type biosensor was developed for the sensitive and efficient TRF detection utilizing the affinity of boronic acid and specific recognition of antibody. TRF can be captured by the facilely synthesized phenylboronic acid decorated SiO 2 @Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanoparticle (PBA-SiO 2 @Fe 3 O 4 ), and then the antibody functionalized Au,Pt,Cu@polydopamine (Ab-Au,Pt,Cu@PDA) with peroxidase-like activity was bond to TRF to form the sandwich conjugate. After the prompt magnetic separation and catalysis with the chromogenic substrates (TMB and H 2 O 2 ), the distinct color development can be observed and measured for the TRF quantification. The proposed method shows satisfied performance with a detection range of 0.128–2000 ng/mL and LOD of 0.051 ng/mL. Moreover, this approach possesses excellent stability and simple operation, without complicated sample pretreatment. Consequently, this biosensor poses a significant potential for the diagnosis and monitoring of abnormal TRF levels-related diseases.

This work reported that protease can be used as the signal label to amplify the signal of electrochemical immunosensors. Carbon nanotube (CNT) was used as the carrier of recognition antibody and signal label. The nanolabel was captured by sensor electrode via a sandwich-type immunoreaction. Protease on the surface of nanolabel can catalyze the hydrolysis of peptide substrate to liberate an amino terminal Cu(II)- and Ni(II)-binding (ATCUN) peptide. The released ATCUN peptide can bind with Cu(II) to generate an electrocatalyst which exhibits high electrocatalytic ability for water oxidation. Thus, the signal was amplified again by the redox cycling between ATCUN-Cu(II) and H 2 O. The immunosensor exhibits low background current because of the poor redox activity of peptide substrate and the high oxidation overpotential of H 2 O molecule. Based on the signal amplification of protease and redox cycling, the target concentration as low as 10 pg/mL can be readily measured with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as the model analyte. The proposed immunosensor was applied to determine PSA in human serum samples with satisfactory results.

Rapid and efficient detection of pesticide residues is essential for ensuring food safety. Herein, we develop a smartphone-assisted multi-channel microfluidic paper–based device (MCPD) biosensor integrated with a cloud platform for the simultaneous detection of glyphosate (Gly), malathion (Mal) and acetamiprid (Ace). Detection zones are functionalised using nanoprobes fabricated via coupling up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) with Fe 3 O 4 @Cu. In the presence of targets, the fluorescence intensity gradually recovers and is detected using a spectrometer and smartphone. Under optimal conditions, the MCPD exhibits a rapid response time of 25 min for Gly, Mal and Ace, with fluorescence-based detection limits of 0.133, 0.181 and 0.232 ng/mL, respectively, and image-based detection limits of 0.493, 0.346 and 0.285 ng/mL, respectively. This method shows no significant differences compared with HPLC method. Furthermore, an Android-based cloud platform enables real-time image analysis and data storage. This MCPD biosensor represents a sensitive, efficient platform for the on-site monitoring of multiple targets.

A composite solid electrolyte comprising a Cu−Al bimetallic metal-organic framework (CAB), lithium salt (LiTFSI) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) was fabricated through molecular grafting to enhance the ionic conductivity of the PEO-based electrolytes. Experimental and molecular dynamics simulation results indicated that the electrolyte with 10 wt.% CAB (PL-CAB-10%) exhibits high ionic conductivity (8.42×10 −4 S/cm at 60 °C), high Li + transference number (0.46), wide electrochemical window (4.91 V), good thermal stability, and outstanding mechanical properties. Furthermore, PL-CAB-10% exhibits excellent cycle stability in both Li−Li symmetric battery and Li/PL-CAB- 10%/LiFePO 4 asymmetric battery setups. These enhanced performances are primarily attributable to the introduction of the versatile CAB. The abundant metal sites in CAB can react with TFSI − and PEO through Lewis acid–base interactions, promoting LiTFSI dissociation and improving ionic conductivity. Additionally, regular pores in CAB provide uniformly distributed sites for cation plating during cycling.

To elucidate how CeO2 additives enhance the activity and stability of Cu-SSZ-13 SCR catalysts, we investigated two CeO2/Cu-SSZ-13 composite catalysts with Cu loadings of 1.0 and 2.5 wt %. These catalysts were characterized using an array of techniques, including XRD, SEM, TEM, NMR, H2-TPR, NH3-TPD, DRIFTS, DFT and SCR reactions under both steady-state and transient kinetic analysis conditions. Our findings demonstrate that CeO2 promotes low-temperature SCR by forming exchanged, isolated Ce-ions, which enhance Cu-ion coupling efficiency. External surface CeO2 particles can convert NO + O2 to surface nitrates, but these species primarily act as spectators below ∼250 °C, and do not contribute to the enhancement of low-temperature SCR activity. In contrast, these surface CeO2 particles can synergizes with Brønsted acid sites (BAS) to elevate high-temperature SCR activity. Furthermore, hydrothermal stability and sulfur resistance are improved by the presence of external surface CeO2 particles, a benefit that applies irrespective of Cu loading.

Catalytically agitating paddles are essential to perform liquid-solid heterogeneous catalytic reactions on an industrial scale due to the improved mass transfer and easy catalyst recovery. Herein, bimetallic oxides were formed after the calcination of nanomaterials derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Particularly, Mn(M)-BTC nanomaterials were synthesized by self-assembly of Mn 2+ ions (mixed with various dopants such as Cu 2+ , Ce 3+ , or Fe 2+ ) and H 3 BTC ligands in a mixed solvent of ethanol and water. It was found that in the powdery form, the Mn-Cu oxide derivate exhibited the highest degradation rate in the catalytic wet peroxide oxidation process (CWPO process), which was significantly higher than that of single metal oxide as well as Mn-Fe and Mn-Ce oxide derivates. The reason was caused by the synergistic effect between Mn-Cu promoted the formation of Mn 3+ and Cu + species to boost the CWPO reaction. Furthermore, the obtained Mn-Cu powdery catalysts were 3D-printed to obtain monolithic agitating paddles with different geometries, which were then mounted on a central shaft in the stirred reactor. An advanced oxidation process was used to investigate the effect of 3D patterns on the degradation efficiency of various organic dyes. It was discovered that the 3D-printed grid with higher cell density (484 cpsi) had better liquid mixing efficiency and thus better catalytic performance, which could be repeatedly used more than seven times. Additionally, the numerical simulation analysis (computational fluid dynamics) revealed a good mixing efficiency and improved mass transfer in the entire reactor equipped with the designed monolithic agitating impellers.

The Cu/TiO 2 catalysts modified by Sb were compounded through the sol-gel way and put into use for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH 3 . Experimental results suggested that CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 exhibited the excellent NOx conversion and SO 2 tolerance. Subsequently, the relationship between surface physicochemical properties and catalytic performance was also investigated by different characterization methods. From characterizations, the introduction of Sb for Cu/TiO 2 could promote the generation of more Cu 2+ , surface adsorbed oxygen species and surface acid sites on CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 catalyst. Furthermore, Sb species on CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 could contribute to the formation of more surface ad-NOx and ad-NH 3 species, which would enhance the NH 3 -SCR process effectively through both the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) and Eley-Rideal (E-R) mechanisms.

Hemin as the organic linker ligand and Cu (II) as the metal center were applied to prepare a copper-metal-organic framework (Cu-hemin-MOF) via one-step hydrothermal method. Characterization using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) demonstrate that the acquired Cu-hemin-MOF possesses the appearance of 3D ball-flower shape with the existence of C, N, O, Fe, and Cu on the surface. Further study found that this 3D ball-flower shaped Cu-hemin-MOF exhibits peroxidase-like activity, which can catalyze the peroxidase substrate of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to generate 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) in the presence of H 2 O 2 . DAP has a yellow color and also emits a strong fluorescence when excited by ultraviolet light. Interestingly, Cu-hemin-MOF’s peroxidase-like activity can be strongly inhibited by glutathione (GSH). In view of this, a dual readout (fluorescence and colorimetry) was proposed to detect GSH for the first time. Under optimal conditions, the proposed method exhibits good linear relationship between the signal response (fluorescence and colorimetry) and the concentration of GSH, and low limits of detection (LOD) of 2.3 and 26.6 nM, respectively.

Meniscus-confined electrodeposition (MCED) is an effective and versatile technique for fabrication of alloy structures with precise localization and high controllability. Here, the fabrication of cobalt-copper (Co/Cu) alloy microwires using MCED techniques is reported. Co/Cu microwires with a wide range of compositions (Co9Cu91 to Co100Cu0) and controllable morphology were printed using the co-electrodeposition mode from a single electrolyte. We utilized multiphysics finite element simulation to investigate the influence of electrolyte evaporation and electric field on the concentration distribution of metal ions in the meniscus. The concentration of ions at the substrate interface increases linearly with decreasing humidity and increasing current density, which can be used to fine turn the alloy composition. By further analyzing the alloy composition, we found that the electrodeposition of Cu is diffusion controlled, while Co is mainly electrochemical reaction controlled, as a results of combined action of surface evaporation and reaction dynamics in the meniscus. The prepared alloy wires are polycrystalline, dense and uniform composition distribution. The coercivity and magnetic anisotropy are enhanced by increasing of the copper content in the alloy wires. The high tunability of composition make this alloy a promising material for magnetic micro/nano-electromechanical devices.

Catalytic transfer hydrodechlorination of plastic pyrolysis oil on supported transition-metal catalysts using isopropanol as a hydrogen donor was investigated in this work. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction, hydrogen temperature-programmed desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the reaction products were identified by GC-MS. Among various Al2O3-supported transition-metal (Cu, Co, Ni) catalysts, Cu/Al2O3 exhibited the best catalytic transfer hydrodechlorination performance due to the superior activation ability of Cu/Al2O3 for isopropanol. The doping of Ni in Cu/Al2O3 significantly enhanced its catalytic activity due to the inherent excellent hydrogenation activity of Ni, good metal dispersion, and strong Ni–Cu interaction in Ni–Cu/Al2O3. GC-MS results revealed that chlorobenzene was hydrogenated to benzene and HCl, and isopropanol was dehydrogenated to form acetone, which was subsequently transformed to methyl isobutyl ketone. The reactivities of three representative organochlorine compounds followed the order of chlorobenzene > tetrachloroethane > tetrachloroethylene. Ultradeep dechlorination of real plastic pyrolysis oil was achieved by catalytic transfer hydrodechlorination over the optimal 15Ni-10Cu/Al2O3 catalyst. The chlorine content of real plastic pyrolysis oil was reduced from 61.7 to 0.5 mg/L with a chlorine removal of 99.2% after reaction for 3 h at the reaction temperature of 210 °C.

Flexible multifunctional pressure sensors for human motion monitoring have recently attracted extensive attention. However, the preparation of a multifunctional sensor with wide coverage and high sensitivity to pressure detection remains a considerable challenge. Here, we design a flexible multifunctional pressure sensor consisting of Cu-catechol nanowire coated carbonized nanofiber networks (Cu-CAT@CNFN) sandwiched between two interlocking polydimethylsiloxane doped with ZnS:Cu (ZnS:Cu/PDMS) composite electrode films. Due to the pressure concentration between the interlock micromastoid arrays and the thicker pressure sensitive layer, the pressure sensors demonstrate a high sensitivity of 45.40 kPa −1 , pressure detection coverage of 0 to 110 kPa, a response time of 0.166 s, outstanding cyclic stability of 5,000 cycles and visualization of the pressure. Furthermore, the pressure sensor can be used to detect pulses, wrist and elbow bending, and finger press. The excellent performance of the pressure sensor demonstrates its application potential in the next generation of wearable electronics.
