Controlled release formulations have been proven to have potential in overcoming the drawbacks of conventional plant growth regulators. Novel controlled-release formulation of β -naphthoxyacetic acid (BNOA) intercalated MgAl-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) was prepared by co-precipitation method. The effects of temperature, pH value, and release medium on BNOA release were studied and the releasing mechanisms were discussed. The results of release show that the increase of temperature induces the increase of BNOA release extent. The release rate and accumulated release amount of BNOA are found to be dependent to the anion in the aqueous solution in the order of CO 3 2− > SO 4 2− > Cl − . Moreover, the pH is the key controlling factor for the BNOA release processes, and with strong acid medium, the release character of BNOA is different from those at pH 7 and 12, which accompanies with fast collapse of LDHs nanolayered structure. The nanohybrid of BNOA intercalated LDHs possessed good controlled release properties and the BNOA release character from the nanohybrid fitted pseudo-second-order model in neutral medium.

A novel Mg-loaded chitosan carbonized microsphere (MCCM) was prepared for simultaneous adsorption of ammonium and phosphate in this study, through the investigation of preparation procedures, addition ratio, and preparation temperature. Pollutants removals by MCCM were more acceptable with 64.71% for ammonium and 99.26% for phosphorus, compared with chitosan carbonized microspheres (CCM), Mg-loaded chitosan hydrogel beads (MCH) and MgCl 2 ·6H 2 O. Addition ratio of 0.6:1 (m chitosan : m MgCl2 ) and preparation temperature of 400 °C in MCCM preparation were responsible for pollutant removal and yield. The effect analysis of MCCM dosage, solution pH, pollutant concentration , adsorption mode and coexisting ions on the removal for both ammonium and phosphate indicated that pollutants removals were increased with increasing MCCM dosages, and achieved the peak at pH 8.5, but presented to be stable with Na + , K + , Ca 2+ , Cl − , NO 3 − , CO 3 2− and SO 4 2− , except for Fe 3+ .Adsorption mechanisms discussion implied that simultaneous ammonium and phosphate removal with MCCM was attributed to struvite precipitation, ion exchange, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic attraction and Mg–P complexation, suggesting that MCCM presents a new way for simultaneous concentrated ammonium and phosphate removal in wastewater treatment .

Designing chiral adsorption separation material with high enantioselectivity and stability is a promising route to realize the enantioselective recognition and separation of racemic molecules. Here, for the first time, camphor sulfonic acid derivatives (CSA) were synthesized as a chiral resolving agent, and it was modified on Mg/Al layered double hydroxide (Mg/Al-LDH) through electrostatic self-assembly to construct functionalized chiral adsorption separation material (CSA@LDH), which could be served as an adsorbent for enantioselective recognition and separation of propranolol enantiomers ( R,S -PRO). The CSA@LDH maintained the advantage of limited chiral space in layered structures to achieve the selective enrichment of R -PRO, and the e.e. % value of single separation could reach 19.5%. Meanwhile, density functional theory (DFT) calculations supported that chiral recognition and separation were ascribed to the discrepancy in affinities stemming from the difference of π-π interaction force and hydrogen bonding capacity of CSA with R,S -PRO. Hence, considering the superior ability of hydrogen bond coordination and stereocontrol of camphor sulfonic acid derivatives, it is expected to be more widely used as a chiral resolving agent for other enantiomeric recognition and separation.

Cyclic stability is a key factor in the design of thermochemical heat storage systems . Because carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) may react with heat storage materials and lead to a decrease in energy storage efficiency, the effect of CO 2 on Ca(OH) 2 /CaO and Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems is investigated in this study. The experimental results show that CO 2 reacts with CaO in the water vapor that appears during the heat release process. Therefore, in the design of Ca(OH) 2 /CaO systems, CO 2 should be cleared from the system. The results from Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems show that CO 2 only slightly reacts with MgO and Mg(OH) 2 during heat storage and release processes. This study indicates that carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3 ) could easily react with CaO/Ca(OH) 2 to form CaCO 3 during heat release processes. Generally, the remaining CO 2 reduces the reversibility of Ca(OH) 2 /CaO systems but has only a slight influence on Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems. In addition, the experimental results show that carbonate shell does not exist in rehydration for both of the CaO/MgO samples, but the influence of CO 2 on the entire process increases after each cycle.

This study is aimed at the enhancement of the corrosion and tribocorrosion performance of AZ31B magnesium (Mg) alloys after plasma electrolytic oxidization (PEO) treatment. Some PEO-treated Mg samples were coated with chitosan (CS) film by dip-coated method, while others were subjected to hydrothermal treatment (HT) followed by CS film. The microstructure and chemical composition of coatings were investigated via X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy . Corrosion resistance of the specimens was evaluated via electrochemical measurements (open circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) in simulated body fluid. The tribocorrosion performance was determined by simultaneously recording the variation of the friction coefficient and the open circuit potential with the sliding time. The results indicated that better corrosion and tribocorrosion performance were observed when CS layer is applied on hydrothermally treated PEO samples than on the bare PEO samples. Thus, fabrication of hydrothermally treated PEO surface coatings with chitosan is a significant approach to protect the Mg from corrosion and tribocorrosion, thereby increasing the potential application of Mg alloy as biological implants .

Due to bacteria in urine and inadequate blood supply, urethral defect repair faces great clinical difficulties. Inspired by the natural structure of the urethra, in this study, we designed a multifunctional hydrogel urethral patch with a Janus structure. The inner layer was a double-network hydrogel of polyvinyl alcohol/carboxymethyl chitosan (PVA/CMCS) enhanced by natural phytic acid (PA) and Mg 2+ (Mg 2+ -PA/PVA/CMCS). The outer layer was composed of poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibers to form a hydrophobic barrier, coupling via a micelle layer to ensure interfacial bonding. The patch exhibited mechanical properties matching soft tissues, with maximum tensile strength and toughness of 1.69±0.13 MPa and 24.7±0.9 MJ/m 3 , respectively, under the strengthening effect of Mg 2+ -PA chelation. Therein, the 4 % Mg 2+ -PA/PVA/CMCS composite patch could maintain unilateral hydrophobicity for at least 14 days and demonstrated an antibacterial rate of 99.0 %±0.1 % against E. coli . In PBS, the patch could deliver Mg 2+ for at least 7 days and stabilize the surrounding pH environment for up to 28 days. In vitro cell experiments indicated that the 4 % Mg 2+ -PA/PVA/CMCS composite patch could promote the human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation and migration, with the angiogenic protein expression enhanced more than 1.2 times compared with the Control group. In conclusion, the patch constructed in this study may provide a new approach to clinical urethral injury repair.

A modified Chou model with parameters of temperature ( T ), initial hydrogen pressure ( P 0 ), enthalpy change (Δ H ) and entropy change (Δ S ) is proposed in consideration of thermodynamic driving force. The meaningful activation energy E v can be calculated for the negative temperature dependence of hydriding reaction in hydrogen storage materials. This model is verified by the hydriding/dehydriding experimental data of (LaNi 5 ) 1− x Mg x ( x = 0, 0.018, 0.041, 0.063). The calculated results indicate that the hydriding kinetics of (LaNi 5 ) 1− x Mg x alloys are controlled by diffusion of hydrogen atom in hydride. The addition of small amount of magnesium improves the kinetic performance of LaNi 5 slightly. Furthermore, the modified Chou model was compared with the previous model that successfully explain the negative temperature depending hydrogenation reaction of Mg-based alloys. The fitting results show that the modified Chou model can describe the hydrogen absorption kinetic mechanism of negative temperature dependent materials more accurately.

A major challenge for semiconductor ion fuel cells (SIFCs) is to design an electrolyte with proton transport properties so that it can maintain high ionic conductivity within relatively low temperatures. Herein, we develop a Sr and Mg codoped LaAlO3 electrolyte that facilitates efficient conduction of protons and oxygen ions by enriching oxygen vacancies and reducing the activation energy of ion conduction. The optimized electrolyte shows a low activation energy of 0.31 eV and demonstrates remarkably elevated ionic conductivity at low temperatures, e.g., 0.1994 S cm–1 at 550 °C. This is attributed to the significant increase in oxygen vacancies, which has been verified by XPS technology. Meanwhile, the Sr and Mg codoped LaAlO3 electrolyte exhibits remarkable proton transport properties, confirmed by proton filtration experiments, which provide further evidence for the improvement of the electrolyte ionic conductivity. As a result, the fuel cell with an optimized LaAlO3 electrolyte delivers an impressive peak power density of 977 mW·cm–2 with an open circuit voltage (OCV) of 1.126 V at 550 °C. Particularly, compared with the fuel cell with a pure LaAlO3 electrolyte, the peak power density is increased by 38.4%. The dual-ion doping strategy provides crucial insight into the further development of high ionic conductivity electrolytes for SIFCs.

The effects of extrusion temperatures on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion performance of biomedical Mg-1Zn-0.4Ca-1MgO composites were systematically investigated. The results indicated that lower extrusion temperatures notably refined the grain size and promoted the formation of numerous nano-scaled secondary phase particles. The grain sizes were 0.8 μm, 1.7 μm, and 3.4 μm for the materials extruded at 280 °C, 310 °C, and 330 °C, which were named ET280, ET310, and ET330. The finest grain size and abundant precipitates enhanced the mechanical properties of the composite with a microhardness of 86.9 HV, a yield strength of 305 MPa, and a fracture elongation of 15.2%. Moreover, the ET280 alloy with ultra-fine grains exhibited the optimal corrosion resistance among these three composites, and its annual corrosion after immersion in Hank’s solution for 14 days was only 0.17 mm/y. The excellent performance in vitro immersion was mainly attributed to the formation of the uniformly dense Ca-P layer on its surface and the contiguous compact Mg(OH)2layer, which could effectively weaken the contact between the corrosive solution and the Mg matrix.

Magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ) is regarded as one of the most promising solid-state hydrogen storage materials. However, its practical application remains limited by thermodynamic stability, slow kinetics, and the gradual coarsening of particles during cycling. To address these limitations, we synthesized a stoichiometrically adjustable Mg-Nb nanocomposite using a liquid-phase in-situ growth strategy. Optimization revealed that the Mg-Nb (10:1) composite exhibits excellent hydrogen storage performance, releasing hydrogen at 239.5 °C with a capacity of 6.17 wt%. At 300°C, the composite released 5.72 wt% H₂ within 15 min, while hydrogen absorption commences at room temperature. Notably, after 100 cycles of hydrogenation/dehydrogenation, the capacity retention was maintained at 99.98 %, underscoring its exceptional cycling stability. The measured dehydrogenation activation energy was reduced to 85.38 kJ/mol, approximately 47.5 % lower than that of pure MgH 2 (162.54 kJ/mol). Mechanistic studies reveal that Nb 5 + is preferentially reduced and acts as a nucleation as well as growth site for Mg, allowing Mg to interact and distribute evenly with Nb. This structure not only provides abundant active sites and hydrogen diffusion pathways but also effectively suppresses the agglomeration and growth of Mg/MgH 2 matrix during hydrogenation/dehydrogenation. Furthermore, NbH 2 phases are formed during the hydrogenation/dehydrogenation process, significantly promoting the adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen atoms, thereby optimizing the hydrogen storage performance of the material.

Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) have attracted extensive attention due to the high volumetric capacity and natural abundance of magnesium (Mg) metal anode. However, the Mg metal anode in ether-based electrolyte systems often suffers from surface passivation, leading to the irreversible plating/stripping behavior of Mg. In this work, for the first time, an effective strategy is proposed to modify the Mg metal anode by in situ alloy formation using a chlorine-free organic metal compound, triphenyl bismuth (TPB). Through electrochemical reduction, an Mg-Bi alloy forms uniformly on the Mg metal anode surface, providing abundant nucleation sites for Mg, allowing for smooth and stable Mg deposition and suppressing the occurrence of short circuits. In a 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME)-based electrolyte system, the addition of TPB significantly improves the electrochemical performance of Mg anode, enabling stable cycling for up to 170 h at a low overpotential. Similarly, in the tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (G4) electrolyte system, excellent performance is observed, achieving stable cycling of 240 h. This work confirms the feasibility of using chlorine-free organic metal additives to improve the Mg anode interface and provides new possibilities for enhancing the practical applications of RMBs.
