The dehydrofluorination of 1,1-difluoroethane (R152a) is a Lewis acid–catalyzed reaction in which both catalytic activity and stability are governed by the coordination and acidity of aluminum sites. In this work, a mechanochemical fluorination strategy was developed to construct a partially fluorinated Al-based catalyst with tunable acid properties. By controlling the fluorine-aluminum ratio during ball milling, the in situ formation of AlF 2 (OH) was achieved, serving as a structural stabilizer and electronic modulator. The coexistence of F-Al-O units and unsaturated Al centers provides medium-strength Lewis acid sites, which favor selective C-F bond activation while suppressing side reactions. Comprehensive characterizations (XRD, XPS, 27 Al NMR, and NH 3 -TPD) confirmed that the defect-related F-Al-O structure maintains structural integrity and balanced acidity during reaction. Consequently, the optimized catalyst exhibits excellent activity, selectivity, and long-term stability in R152a dehydrofluorination.

To achieve the rapid and sensitive detection of trace methyl parathion (MP) in river water and edible agricultural products, the catalytic composite material zirconium hydroxide (Zr(OH)4)/zeolite imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) was prepared by a one-step synthesis method. The composite was further incorporated with a conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) hydrogel to prepare a modified electrode. Then, an electrochemical sensing method based on the PEDOT:PSS/Zr(OH)4/ZIF-90 composite was successfully established for the analysis and detection of MP. The component ratio of the composite material, modification amount and pH value of the detection substrate were optimized. The electrochemical properties of the composite modified electrode were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques, and the results confirmed that it had good electrochemical properties. The electrochemical response of the established sensing method to MP showed a good linear relationship in the concentration range of 1–250 µmol L−1, and its detection limit and sensitivity reached 0.74 µmol L−1 and 0.09 µA µmol−1 L−1, respectively. The interference of common coexisting ions on the detection performance of the PEDOT:PSS/Zr(OH)4/ZIF-90 modified electrode was further investigated, and it was applied for the quantitative analysis of MP in actual river water and apple samples. The electrochemical sensing method developed in this work provides a new way for the efficient detection of MP residues in environmental water and agricultural products.

Allyl acetate (AA) is widely used as monomer and intermediate in industrial chemicals synthesis. To evaluate the atmospheric outcome of AA, kinetics and mechanism of its gas-phase reaction with main atmospheric oxidants (O3, OH, Cl, and NO3) have been investigated in a Teflon reactor at 298 ± 3 K. Both absolute and relative rate methods were used to determine the rate constants for AA reactions with the four atmospheric oxidants. The obtained rate constants (in units of cm3 molecule–1 s–1) are (1.8 ± 0.3) × 10–18, (3.1 ± 0.7) × 10–11, (2.5 ± 0.5) × 10–10, and (1.1 ± 0.4) × 10–14, for reactions with O3, OH, Cl, and NO3, respectively. While results for reactions with O3, OH and Cl are in good agreement with previous studies, the kinetics for the reaction with NO3 is reported for the first time in this study. On the basis of determined rate constants, the tropospheric lifetimes of AA are τO3 = 9 days, τOH = 5 h, τCl = 5 days, τNO3 = 2 days. On the basis of the products study, reaction mechanisms for these oxidations have been proposed and the reaction products were detected using thermal desorption–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (TD–GC–MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results show that the main products formed in these reactions are carbonyl compounds. In particular, 2-oxoethyl acetate was detected in all four AA oxidation reactions. Compared to previous studies, several new products were determined for reactions with OH and Cl. These results form a set of comprehensive kinetic data for AA reactions with main atmospheric oxidants and provide a better understanding of the degradation and atmospheric outcome of unsaturated acetate esters in the troposphere, during both daytime and nighttime.

Rate constants at room temperature (293 ± 2 K) and atmospheric pressure for the reaction of methyl n-propyl ether (MnPE), CH3OCH2CH2CH3, with OH and NO3 radicals and the Cl atom have been determined in a 100 L FEP-Teflon reaction chamber in conjunction with gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) as the detection technique. The obtained rate constants k (in units of cm3 molecule–1 s–1) are (9.91 ± 2.30) × 10–12, (1.67 ± 0.32) × 10–15, and (2.52 ± 0.14) × 10–10 for reactions with OH, NO3, and Cl, respectively. The products of these reactions were investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and formation mechanisms are proposed for the observed reaction products. Atmospheric lifetimes of the studied ether, calculated from rate constants of the different reactions, reveal that the dominant loss process for MnPE is its reaction with OH, while in coastal areas and in the marine boundary layer, MnPE loss by Cl reaction is also important.

The amorphous mesoporous Ni(OH) 2 hollow spheres (Ni(OH) 2 -HSs) with waxberry-like morphology were fabricated by using a facile hydrothermal method with poly(styrene-acrylic acid) spheres as the template, followed by extraction of the template. In the hydrothermal process, Ni(NO 3 ) 2 ⋅6H 2 O was employed as the precursor of Ni(OH) 2 . SEM, TEM, XPS, XRD, and N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherm techniques were used to characterize the structure and morphology of Ni(OH) 2 -HSs. The obtained Ni(OH) 2 -HSs have a uniform morphology with an average diameter of 300 nm and shell thickness of about 25 nm. The mesoporous shells of the Ni(OH) 2 -HSs are composed of amorphous Ni(OH) 2 particles. When used as an electrode, the as-prepared Ni(OH) 2 -HSs exhibit pseudocapacitive behavior with a high specific capacitance of 2559 F g −1 at a scan rate of 1 mV s −1 and a good capacitance retention of 91.8% after 1000 cycles at a current density of 5 A g −1 . These results suggest promising applications of the waxberry-like amorphous Ni(OH) 2 hollow spheres in electrode materials for supercapacitors.

The UV lights of different wavelengths were performed in boosting hydroxyl radicals ( OH) generation from traditional Fenton reagent for the gaseous toluene removal. The Fenton, UV 254 /Fenton and UV 365 /Fenton processes were first adopted to eliminate gaseous toluene through the bubble column reactor, respectively. The stable toluene removal efficiency in 60 min was 85.31% in the UV 365 /Fenton process, which was higher than other processes. The gaseous toluene was mainly oxidized into CO 2 rather than other gaseous intermediates in the UV 365 /Fenton process. For UV 365 /Fenton process, the GC-MS tests were carried out to figure out the aqueous intermediates of gaseous toluene removal. The OH concentration in the UV 365 /Fenton process was the highest among all the parallel tests via the EPR experiments and the quantificational measurements with coumarin as the probe. The iron ion in the aqueous solution was systematically evaluated with the experiments proceeding. The evolution of iron ion in the aqueous solution indicated that the fast reduction of Fe 3+ to Fe 2+ was assisted with 365 nm UV rather than 254 nm UV, which played a key point in the high gaseous toluene removal efficiency. This study demonstrated that the combination of UV 365 irradiation and Fenton in the wet scrubbing reactor performed a synergistic effect on the gaseous toluene removal.

Dry reforming of methane (DRM) represents a highly promising process for syngas production, as it simultaneously utilizes two predominant greenhouse gases (CH 4 and CO 2 ). However, the deactivation caused by carbon deposition, which originates from rate gap between carbon accumulation and removal, has been one of the most difficult problems solved, severely restricting its application. Herein, a series of hydroxyapatite (CaHAP) supports with structural hydroxyl (-OH) replaced by F − (CaHAP-xF) were employed to prepare Ni/CaHAP-xF catalysts for DRM. Effects of F − introduction on the surface property of CaHAP supports and DRM reaction behavior were explored. Ca 2p XPS and CO 2 -TPD indicate that F − weakens the electron density of adjacent Ca 2+ (which is the main CO 2 adsorption site), thereby enhancing the CO 2 adsorption. FT-IR, H 2 -TPR, TEM, and CO 2 -DRIFTS, in combination with reaction test results, manifest that F − incorporation modulates -OH quantity on the surface and activates the neighboring structural -OH, which strongly affects the distribution of the adsorbed CO 2 , as well as the existing state of the introduced Ni. Appropriate F introduction promotes Ni dispersion, resulting in high CH 4 cracking rate. Further, it is testified that the structural -OH species participate in the decarbonization reaction, especially those activated by F significantly accelerate the carbon removal. Thus, the catalyst with high dispersion of Ni (2Ni/CaHAP-0.98F) exhibits the best performance of DRM under the harsh conditions. CH 4 and CO 2 conversions of 59.2% and 72.8% were achieved at low temperature (700 °C) and high WHSV (48,000 mL·h −1 ·g −1 ).

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) possesses excellent corrosion resistance, moderate friction properties, and high‑temperature stability. However, under severe operating conditions, its coefficient of friction (COF) and wear rate increase significantly, limiting broader application. In this work, P‑MoS₂ was synthesized in situ on a PEEK matrix using a hydrothermal method, while K‑BN‑OH was prepared via surface grafting with a coupling agent. Both fillers were then blended with a PEEK/PTFE matrix to produce a novel PEEK/PTFE/P‑MoS₂/K‑BN‑OH composite. Orthogonal experiments identified the optimal composition of PEEK/PTFE/P‑MoS₂, which exhibited the best overall performance. The effect of K‑BN‑OH content on the mechanical, thermal, and tribological properties of the composites was systematically studied. Tribological behavior under varying conditions was analyzed to elucidate wear mechanisms and filler synergy. Results show that the composite with 25% PTFE and 5% P‑MoS₂ achieved the most balanced performance: elastic modulus (1414.62 MPa), compressive strength (127.81 MPa), COF (0.108), and wear rate (1.81 ×10⁻⁶ mm³/N·h) decreased by 22.58%, 35.82%, 73.13%, and 59.78%, respectively, compared to pure PEEK, while creep strain (2.77%) increased by 95.62%. Further addition of 3% K‑BN‑OH enhanced mechanical and thermal properties: elastic modulus rose to 1520.13 MPa, compressive strength to 131.33 MPa, creep strain fell to 1.82%, and thermal conductivity reached 0.294 W/m·K. The average coefficient of friction(ACOF) declined to 0.094, though wear rate rose slightly to 2.26 × 10⁻⁶ mm³/N·h. Tribological tests revealed that wear rate increased with rotational speed, while ACOF showed a non‑monotonic trend, first decreasing and then increasing. With increasing load, both ACOF and wear rate initially decreased before rising, reaching minima at 20 N (0.077 and 2.09 ×10⁻⁶ mm³/N·h, respectively). Molecular dynamics simulations elucidated that PTFE formed a lubricating film through interfacial enrichment, while MoS₂ enhanced matrix ordering and promoted interfacial slip via π-π stacking and C-S bonding. In contrast, h-BN disrupted the synergistic lubrication network established between PTFE and MoS₂ due to its spatial blocking effect. This work systematically elucidates the synergistic mechanisms of fillers from the microscopic level to macroscopic performance, providing a theoretical basis for the design of high‑performance PEEK composites tailored to specific operating conditions.

Two new alkali–metal bismuth iodates KBi(IO3)3(OH) (1) and NaBi(IO3)4 (2) have been synthesized by a hydrothermal method via tuning of alkali–metal ions. Compound 1 crystallizes in the space group P and features a [Bi(IO3)3(OH)]n chain with eight-membered Bi–O–I–O–Bi–O–I–O rings. The [Bi(IO3)3(OH)]n chain consists of paddlewheel-like dimeric Bi2(OH)2(IO3)4 units linked by IO3 pairs. Compound 2 in the polar space group Cc features a [Bi(IO3)4]− double layer with Bi4I4 eight-membered rings (8-MRs). NaBi(IO3)4 exhibits a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response of ∼5.0 × KDP (KH2PO4) and a wide transmittance window (0.4–12 μm), and structure analyses and theoretical calculations reveal that polarization results mainly from the proper alignment of the IO3 groups. The calculated electronic structure based on the DFT method indicates that the BiOn and IO3 groups dominate their optical properties.

Non-equilibrium adsorption contributes to post-illumination TC removal. • Bi 2 WO 6 /Ni(OH) 2 shows enhanced adsorption and photocatalytic kinetics. • Charge storage is unlikely to dominate the dark-stage behavior. • Acid extraction reveals adsorption-related surface retention of TC. • Light-off timing supports adsorption relaxation after photocatalysis. The photocatalytic removal of antibiotic pollutants has been widely investigated for water purification, where continued pollutant decay after light irradiation (“dark-stage removal”) represents an intriguing post-illumination phenomenon in photocatalytic systems. Although charge storage provides an important explanation for post-illumination activity, adsorption relaxation after light-off may also contribute to dark-stage removal. In this work, a Ni(OH) 2 -modified Bi 2 WO 6 system was employed as a representative model to investigate non-equilibrium adsorption in photocatalytic dark-stage tetracycline removal. The photocatalytic performance under visible light was first evaluated to establish a high-activity reaction system. Subsequently, a combination of acid extraction, solution–surface distribution analysis, and charge probing experiments was used to clarify the contributions of adsorption redistribution and charge storage. The results demonstrate that charge storage is negligible and unlikely to dominate the dark-stage behavior in the Bi 2 WO 6 /Ni(OH) 2 system. Instead, the apparent dark-stage removal is primarily governed by a non-equilibrium adsorption process, arising from the imbalance between rapid photocatalytic consumption and adsorption–desorption dynamics during illumination. After light-off, the system gradually relaxes toward equilibrium, leading to continued redistribution of tetracycline from the solution to the catalyst surface. This work reveals a photocatalysis-induced non-equilibrium adsorption pathway for dark-stage removal, providing a complementary perspective for understanding post-illumination behavior in photocatalytic systems.

A multifunctional mesoporous silica nanoplatform was constructed for synergistic photo-chemodynamic therapy. • WO 3-x adsorb hydroxyl radicals to enhance chemodynamic therapy, while Cu(II) depletes glutathione to reduce ROS scavenging and boost oxidative stress. • The nanoplatform achieves 80% in vitro cell inhibition and 73.9% in vivo tumor growth inhibition via synergistic PDT/CDT. Combination photo-chemodynamic therapy (PDT/CDT) represents a promising anticancer strategy that synergistically generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) through light activation and Fenton-like reactions. However, the therapeutic efficacy of ROS is often compromised by overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and the ultra-short lifetime of hydroxyl radicals (•OH). To address these challenges, we developed a novel mesoporous silica-based nanosystem integrating a Fenton catalyst Cu(II), oxygen-vacancy-rich tungsten oxide (WO 3-x ), and the photosensitizer zinc phthalocyanine. The nanosystem enhances oxidative damage through Cu(II)-mediated GSH depletion and WO 3-x -facilitated adsorption and stabilization of •OH via oxygen vacancy trapping, in addition to the synergistic PDT/CDT effect. Following conjugation with a mitochondria-targeting ligand, the nanosystem was evaluated in vitro and in vivo , achieving a cell inhibitory rate of 80% and a tumor growth inhibition rate of 73.9%, demonstrating high therapeutic efficacy. These results indicate that the as-synthesized multifunctional nanosystem with enhanced oxidative capacity holds great promise as a PDT/CDT nanoagent for tumor ablation. A mesoporous silica-based nanoplatform co-delivering Cu(II) Fenton catalyst, oxygen-deficient WO 3-x , and ZnPc photosensitizer with mitochondria-targeting TPP ligand achieves synergistic photo-chemodynamic therapy by depleting GSH, enhancing •OH and 1 O 2 production, and suppressing tumor growth by 73.9%.

Hierarchical Co(OH) 2 /FeOOH is constructed via a facile one-step heterogeneous nucleation strategy. • Self-sacrificial FeOOH nanoneedles protects Co-based active phases under high current. • Efficient Co 2+ →Co 3+ conversion enriches high-valence active sites for accelerated OER kinetics. • The catalyst delivers an low overpotential of 275 mV at 200 mA cm −2 . • The catalyst achieves remarkable operational stability for over 450 h at 1 A cm −2 for OER. Cobalt hydroxide-based catalysts are promising candidates for electrochemical water splitting, yet their practical application in industrial electrolysis is hindered by insufficient activity under high-current conditions. Herein, we rationally construct a hierarchical Co(OH) 2 /FeOOH composite via a one-step heterogeneous nucleation strategy, where FeOOH nanoneedles are uniformly anchored on Co(OH) 2 nanosheets frameworks. The composite achieves an ultra-low overpotential of 275 mV at 200 mA cm −2 for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), with a lower Tafel slope. More notably, it maintains stability with negligible potential fluctuation over 450 h under an industrially relevant current density of 1 A cm −2 . The FeOOH promotes efficient Co 2+ →Co 3+ valence transition, while the hierarchical interfacial interactions enhance charge transfer efficiency and stabilize high-valence Co active species. A unique self-sacrificial mechanism is unveiled that preferential tip dissolution of FeOOH nanoneedles effectively protects the underlying Co-based active sites from over-oxidation and structural collapse, thereby ensuring long-term catalytic stability. Mechanistic studies further suggest that Co(OH) 2 /FeOOH exhibits enhanced lattice-oxygen-participated character relative to CoFe-LDH, which tends to follow the adsorbate evolution mechanism. This work develops a self-sacrificial interface engineering strategy to boost the activity and stability of Co(OH) 2 , and provides a feasible structural design paradigm for developing durable OER electrocatalysts toward industrial-relevant high-current conditions.
