In the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, vascular scaffold materials play an extremely important role. The appropriate substrate chemistries and 15 dynes/cm 2 physiological fluid shear stress (FSS) are both required to ensure normal physiological activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The present study reported the collective influence of substrate chemistries and FSS on HUVECs in the sense of its biological functions. The CH 3 , NH 2 , and OH functional groups were adopted to offer a variety of substrate chemistries on glass slides by the technology of self-assembled monolayers, whereas FSS was generated by a parallel-plate fluid flow system. Substrate chemistries on its own by no means had noticeable effects on eNOS, ATP, NO, and PGI 2 expressions, while FSS stimuli enhanced their production. While substrate chemistries, as well as FSS, were both exerted, the releases of ATP, NO, and PGI 2 were dependent on substrate chemistries. Study of F-actin organization and focal adhesions (FAs) formation of HUVECs before FSS exposure proves that F-action organization and FAs formation followed similar chemistry-dependence. Hereby proposed a feasible mechanism, that is, the F-actin organization and FAs formation of HUVECs are controlled by substrate chemistries, further advancing the modulation of FSS-triggered responses of HUVECs.

The exceptional protection of epoxy resin (EP) is restricted in practical applications due to high electrical insulation and inherent microporous defects. In this study, acid-doped polypyrrole (f-PPy)/MXene hybrid nanomaterials incorporated into the EP matrix to construct three-dimensional (3D) conductive network that simultaneously enhances corrosion resistance and imparts antistatic capability. Electrochemical impedance measurements demonstrate a long-term stability, maintaining 9.73 × 10 10 Ω cm 2 even after 14 days of immersion, which is significantly higher than the EP coatings. Compared with pure EP, the composite SiO 2 @f-PPy/MXene/EP coating shows a 3 times reduction in surface resistivity (8.68 × 10 7 Ω m) and exceeds the industrial antistatic threshold by two orders of magnitude. The enhanced anticorrosion is attributed to the synergistic contribution of the triple properties of the SiO 2 @f-PPy/MXene: “labyrinth effect”, redox effect and corrosion inhibition. SiO 2 @f-PPy/MXene 3D conductive network enhances the antistatic ability of EP. This dual-functional strategy addresses the critical gap of combining anticorrosion and antistatic performance in EP coatings and offers a practical route for protective applications on Mg alloys.

In TiO 2 colossal dielectric ceramics co-doped with In 3+ and Nb 5+ , the electron-pinned defect-dipoles effect is strongly influenced by the adjacent and overlapping interaction between diamond ( Nb 2 5 + Ti 3 + A Ti ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{\mathrm{2}}^{{\mathrm{5 + }}}{\mathrm{Ti}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}{{\mathrm{A}}}_{{\mathrm{Ti}}}$ (A = Ti 4+ /In 3+ /Ti 3+ )) and triangle ( In 2 3 + V O · · Ti 3 + ${\mathrm{In}}_{\mathrm{2}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}V_{\mathrm{O}}^{ \cdot \cdot }{\mathrm{Ti}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}$ ) defect clusters. Although acceptor doping introduces oxygen vacancies ( V O · · $V_{\mathrm{O}}^{ \cdot \cdot }$ ) that facilitate the formation of triangular ( In 2 3 + V O · · Ti 3 + ${\mathrm{In}}_{\mathrm{2}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}V_{\mathrm{O}}^{ \cdot \cdot }{\mathrm{Ti}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}$ ) defect clusters, this doping inevitably results in the presence of additional diamond ( Nb 2 5 + Ti 3 + A Ti ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{\mathrm{2}}^{{\mathrm{5 + }}}{\mathrm{Ti}}^{{\mathrm{3 + }}}{{\mathrm{A}}}_{{\mathrm{Ti}}}$ (A = In 3+ )) defect clusters. Unfortunately, this structure complexity hinders a clear understanding of the intrinsic relationship between the colossal dielectric properties and low-temperature dielectric relaxation associated with individual defect clusters. Therefore, creating novel defect clusters to achieve high electron localization is crucial for the advanced TiO 2 -based ceramics. Herein, a colossal dielectric constant of up to 3.4 × 10 4 and a low dielectric loss of 0.044 are observed at 1 kHz and room temperature for the first time in cation–anion (In 3+ and F − ) co-doped TiO 2 ceramics. Meanwhile, the materials exhibit excellent frequency stability and meet the temperature requirements defined by the X9R standard. Dielectric relaxation associated with electrons in the low-temperature range of 2–30 K is attributed to the generation of novel diamond defect clusters ( In 3 + Ti 4 + F 2 − ${\mathrm{In}}^{3+}{\mathrm{Ti}}^{4+}{\mathrm{F}}_{2}^{-}$ ). Combined with density functional theory calculations, the notable electronegativity of F − promotes electron localization without relying on V O · · $V_{\mathrm{O}}^{ \cdot \cdot }$ -related defect clusters formations. Overall, the study presents a novel strategy for designing next-generation colossal dielectric ceramics.

The direct electrocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to methane using water as a medium is a reliable way to store intermittent renewable energy and solve environmental problems. However, in such multielectron/proton transfer reactions, the role of water is often overlooked. Specifically, the sluggish kinetics of water dissociation limit the effective proton supply during methane formation. Here, we propose a copper-doped CeO2 catalyst with frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), which can effectively reduce carbon dioxide to methane. Combined experimental analysis and theoretical calculations reveal that the synergistic interaction between Cu and FLPs forms an f-p-d gradient orbital coupling system, which significantly promotes water dissociation to generate active protons and optimizes the adsorption behavior of the *H and *COOH intermediates. Even at the large current density of −273 mA cm–2, the Faraday efficiency of Cu/CeO2-FLPs for methane was as high as 78.0%, with a conversion frequency of 15784.1 h–1 in the flow cell. This work provides a strategy for the rational design of efficient multipoint catalytic systems.

A novel fluorescent probe , phenolphthalein‑dialdehyde‑(2‑pyridyl) hydrazone (L), for sequentially detecting Al 3+ and F − in almost 100% aqueous medium was successfully designed and synthesized. The probe offers two binding pockets for Al 3+ to form a 1: 2 ligand/metal complex, leading to a significant fluorescence enhancement at 465 nm. Further, the in-situ formed L-Al complex acts as a secondary fluorescent chemosensor for F − by quenching the fluorescence of the complex with high selectivity. The detection limit for Al 3+ and F − sensing is 2.28 nM and 0.13 μM, respectively, which are far below the World Health Organization (WHO) acceptable limits (7.41 μM for Al 3+ ion and 79 μM for F − ) in drinking water . The probe L was successfully applied to the detection of Al 3+ and F − in cells using fluorescence microscopy .

In view of the few reports of the near-infrared emissive probe for fluorine ions , we herein designed and synthesized a new easy-to-get colorimetric and near-infrared emissive fluorescent probe ( IS-NR-F ) with a large Stokes shift (>127 nm). Based on specific F − triggered desilylation reaction induced enhanced ICT strategy involving the donor phenolate anion and the acceptor malononitrile , the probe exhibited dual colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on responses, and provided excellent selectivity for fluoride ions. The fluorescent response at 665 nm displayed very good linear relationship in the wide concentration range and deduced a low detection limit of 0.09 ppm. The detection mechanism was confirmed by 1 H NMR, ESI-MS, and TLC calculation. Moreover, probe IS-NR-F has been successfully employed to detect F − in tap water, toothpaste samples, and fluorescent imaging of F − in HeLa cells.

The advancement of Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has been impeded by its subpar kinetic characteristics, resulting in suboptimal electrochemical performance . In this case, a dual modification strategy involving Ta and F co-doping is employed, along with the incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), is introduced. Notably, the substitution of high-valence Ta 5+ for V 3+ ions induces an n-type doping effect, thereby increasing the density of free electrons and enhancing electrochemical performance. Moreover, Ta 5+ possesses a comparatively larger ionic radius than V 3+ , which enhances the ease of Na + transport, leading to an increased rate of ionic diffusion. Furthermore, Ta 5+ ions play a crucial role in reinforcing the crystal structure, thereby strengthening the stability of the NVP system. Importantly, during the high-temperature calcination process, the reduction of carbon results in the conversion of Ta 5+ to Ta 3+ , forming a novel conductive TaN phase through its reaction with N 2 . This TaN phase, known for its high conductivity, intercalates into the NVP bulk as interlayers, forming beneficial grain boundaries. Thanks to this unique TaN//NVP heterojunction , the migration of Na + ions is notably accelerated along the grain boundaries rather than within the NVP bulk. The introduction of F contributes to reducing the grain size of active particles, consequently shortening the pathways for Na + migration and improving kinetic properties. Moreover, the presence of carbon layers and the encapsulation of CNTs collaboratively construct a highly conductive cross-linking network, elevating both electronic conductivity and mitigating NVP particle aggregation during high-temperature sintering. Consequently, the modified NVTPF0.07/@CNTs sample exhibits outstanding performance in both half and full cells, underscoring its substantial potential for application in the field of sodium-ion batteries.

A facile and green method was developed for the simultaneous doping of nitrogen, boron, and fluorine in TiO 2 by H 2 TiO 3 via a microwave-assisted route. The ionic liquid (IL) [BMIm]BF 4 serves not only as microwave absorbent but also as a dopant. The IL also shows the ability to self-assemble under microwave irradiation, which causes it to act as an inhibitor for the growth of the TiO 2 particles. The N–B–F-tri-doped TiO 2 obtained exhibits large specific surface area, small crystal size, and a mesoporous structure, and the mechanism for the formation of the N–B–F-tri-doped TiO 2 was proposed. The prepared materials exhibit excellent visible light photocatalytic activity in the degradation of organic pollutants, including methyl orange, rhodamine B, Orange G, and reactive red X, which is attributed to the presence of a Ti–B–N structure on the TiO 2 surface, inducing a narrow band gap of 2.78 eV, and the synergistic effects of N, B, and F, which improve the separation efficiency of the photo-generated electron/hole pairs. The results obtained may provide a new sight for the application of ILs in the microwave-assisted preparation of nanomaterials.

In this study, the F-doped poly-m-phenyleneisophthalamide (PMIA) solution was synthesized by low temperature polymerization method and spun to be three-dimensional nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning. The Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy investigations verified that F was successfully doped in PMIA membrane. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed the crystallinity degree of PMIA membrane decreased with the addition of F. The morphology, pore size and aperture distribution tests manifested that the average diameter of F-PMIA fibers became finer and their distribution was more uniform than these of PMIA fibers. The electrolyte uptake, preserving liquid electrolyte, thermal stability and shrinkage resistance of the F-dopoed membrane were also significantly enhanced than that of pure PMIA membrane. The F-PMIA membrane could be acted as matrix to prepare gel polymer electrolyte. Finally, the F-doped PMIA membrane was used in the assembled coin cells to test the properties including the electronic conductivity , battery interfacial characteristics, electrochemical stability windows and cycle performances of battery. The lower electronic conductivity and interfacial resistance , higher electrochemical stability window (5.7 V) of F-doped PMIA membranes were obtained when comparing to the pure PMIA and commercial polyethylene membrane. The cell exhibited high first-cycle discharge capacity with 145 mAh g −1 and excellent cycling stability with good capacity retention of 93.1% and coulombic efficiency of 99.3% after 100 cycles.

White light with excellent color rendering property has been highly required for comfortable and healthy illumination. A facile strategy to achieve high color rendering index (Ra >90) in practical applications is using near ultraviolet chips as excitation sources combined with RGB phosphors. However, achieving high color rendering with both blue chips and near-ultraviolet (NUV) chips for commercial phosphors dispersed in phosphor-in-glass (PiGs) materials is still a big challenge. In this work, the PiG based on the ultra-low melting point Sn–F–P–O glass with commercial green (Lu 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ ) and red (Sr x Ca 1-x AlSiN 3 :Eu 2+ ) phosphors has been successfully fabricated by one-step sintering method. The phase identification and distribution of monochromatic red phosphor in glass (R-PiG) and green phosphor in glass (G-PiG) were investigated in detail. The Sn 2+ ions in Sn–F–P–O matrix show the intense blue emission bands centered at 420 nm under the excitation of NUV chips (365 nm). Notably, the polychromatic red/green phosphor in glasses (R/G-PiGs) are versatile and exhibited excellent color rendering (Ra = 93, Ra = 95, Ra = 92, respectively) properties excited by both blue chips, NUV chips and laser diodes (WLD). The working temperature of R/G-PiGs is stable at ∼33 °C and ∼55 °C when employed in WLEDs/WLDs (1 W), which greatly prevented the phenomenon of “thermal quenching” for the phosphors caused by high temperature. Thus, the versatile R/G-PiG with ultra-high color rendering and excellent thermal properties indicates its promising application in high-power white LEDs/LDs.

In this report, we successfully synthesized amorphous Fe−P shell electrodeposited on Co(OH)F nanowire arrays supported on titanium mesh (Fe−P@Co(OH)F/TM) as an efficient catalyst for OER. Such catalyst exhibits excellent OER activity with a low overpotential of 267 mV to reach the geometrical current density of 10 mA cm −2 in 1.0 M KOH. In addition, it has good electrochemical durability to maintain its activity for at least 20 h.

The wide occurrence of metronidazole (MNZ) in aquatic environment has aroused increasing concern to the potential adverse effects on human health. Combining different motifs into a photolytic material to achieve high photocatalytic efficiency is regarded as one of the main strategies during photocatalytic process. Herein, a triple anions contained photocatalyst , Ba 3 (BO 3 )(CO 3 )F (BBCF), exhibited excellent removal efficiency of MNZ (92.6%) in 15 min, which was 5.87 times higher than that of commercial P25. The excellent removal efficiency could be attributed to the strong electronegativity of the F − , and the π-conjugated triangles structure of (BO 3 ) 3− and (CO 3 ) 2− , which made BBCF facilitate the transport of photogenerated electrons, thus accelerating the accumulation of active h + . Meanwhile, the appropriate reduction potential of BBCF accounted for the outstanding productivity of O 2 – . h + and O 2 – were proved as the dominant reactive species for MNZ degradation. The degradation products were analyzed by LC-TOF-MS, and the toxicity of the intermediate was evaluated to be lower than that of parent MNZ molecule. Moreover, BBCF showed the universal application of degrading oxytetracycline (OTC), methylene blue (MB). Therefore, anion-rich BBCF catalyst with high catalytic activity has a potential application prospect for degrading harmful pollutants in practical water environment.
