The electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to methane (CH4) represents a promising strategy for carbon utilization, however, achieving high selectivity and efficiency remains a significant challenge. Herein, a copper foil-based catalyst with abundant interfaces was synthesized through electrodeposition to achieve Sb and F dual doping on the copper surface (CuSbF-ED), enabling efficient methane production through pulsed CO2 electrolysis. Under the pulsed electrolysis condition, the CuSbF-ED catalyst achieved a remarkably high CH4 Faradaic efficiency of approximately 92.6% and a partial current density of 60.3 mA•cm-2 at an overpotential of -1.2 V vs RHE, representing significant advancement over the static electrolysis performance of pristine copper foil. The in situ infrared spectroscopy results revealed an enhanced coverage of key intermediates *CHO on the CuSbF-ED surface during pulsed electrolysis. Theoretical calculations further confirmed that the CuSbF-ED structure with Sb and F dual doping stabilizes *CO intermediates and promotes the formation and adsorption of *CHO intermediates. Under the pulsed electrolysis conditions, the stabilized Cu species on CuSbF-ED surface facilitate the further conversion of adsorbed *CHO and *CH2O intermediates by deep hydrogenation processes toward high CH4 selectivity. The present research highlights Sb-F dual doping combined with pulsed potential electrolysis as a promising approach for the efficient and selective electroreduction of CO2 to CH4, contributing to sustainable carbon management

BACKGROUND Over the past two decades, bed bugs ( Cimex spp.) have resurged as common urban pests around the world. The search for efficient and safe control measures has become a key interest among researchers, manufacturers, and pest control professionals. In this study, we evaluated and compared the efficacy of steam, diatomaceous earth (DE) dust, and a combination of both against tropical bed bugs ( Cimex hemipterus (F.)) under laboratory and field conditions. RESULTS In the laboratory study, the mortality of bed bugs after 2 days of exposure to DE dust was 100%. When bed bugs stayed on the surface of an object or in cracks, a brief steam treatment (1 s) caused 100% mortality. However, when bed bugs were hidden under a fabric cover, steam application for 10 s only caused 89 ± 6% mortality. Bed bugs that survived steam treatment exhibited reduced feeding activity. In a 14-week long study, there was no significant difference in the reduction rate of bed bugs between steam treatment and DE dust treatment. A 37-week long control study showed that steam and steam plus DE dust treatments eliminated 97–100% of the infestations. CONCLUSION Applying steam and DE dust are effective strategies for eliminating natural tropical bed bug infestations. Continuous follow-up monitoring and treatment until no bed bugs are found are crucial in completely eliminating the infestation of tropical bed bugs. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Structure and stealth integrated materials that simultaneously deliver mechanical loading and broadband electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption performance are critical for next generation stealth aircraft. Although conventional carbon fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composites (C f /CMCs) exhibit outstanding load-bearing capacity, their inherent EMW reflection characteristics often fail to meet stealth requirements. This work proposes a multiscale design strategy synergizing microscopic defect engineering with macroscopic gradient permittivity modulation. Accordingly, (SiO 2 –C) f /(CrZrHfNbTa)C–Si 3 N 4 –SiBCN composite featuring self-adaptive impedance matching and multi-mechanism EMW absorption were successfully constructed. The material demonstrates acceptable load-bearing capacity (101 ± 5 MPa) while achieving a remarkably high effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) per unit thickness (2.68 GHz mm −1 ). More importantly, radar cross section (RCS) simulations reveal that the sample achieves a remarkable RCS reduction of 35.52 dB m 2 . This surpasses most reported materials system, demonstrating high practical application potential. Density functional theory calculations reveals that defect engineering (lattice distortion and point defects) in the sample constructs new polarization centers at the microscopic level, which significantly enhances polarization relaxation loss for improved EMW absorption. On the other hand, macroscopic structural design (SiO 2f -C f -SiO 2f ) significantly optimizes the impedance matching, which effectively broadens EAB. The multiscale design strategy overcomes the inherent conflict between strong EMW reflection and attenuation in carbon fibers, which provides a novel material solution for stealth aircraft.

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.

In this work, Nd 2 (Zr 1- x Sn x ) 3 (MoO 4 ) 9 (0.02 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) (NZSM) ceramics were successfully obtained through conventional solid-state route. Phase analysis, microstructure, and properties were investigated scientifically by XRD , SEM, and network analyzer, respectively. XRD results revealed that all samples with different substitution amounts of Sn 4+ formed the pure phase with R-3c space group. The permittivity was related to the polarizability and the bond of Zr2-O5, the bond of Nd-O2 possessed a positive influence on Q×f . The reduced octahedral distortion and increased bond energy made the temperature coefficient more stable. Infrared reflection spectrum results showed that the permittivity was mainly caused by the absorption of phonon oscillation. The optimum properties ( ε r = 10.34, Q×f = 74,795 GHz, τ f = −13.55 ppm/°C) were obtained when x = 0.02 sintered at 750 °C.

Hit, Lead & Candidate Discovery To discover succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors with a novel structure, we introduced cinnamic acid structure to optimize the lead structure 1 and synthesized four series of cinnamon–pyrazole carboxamide derivatives. The bioassay data showed that compounds (E)-N-(1-[4-chlorophenyl]-4-cyano-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-3-(2-fluorophenyl) acrylamide ( 5III-d) and (E)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-(1-[4-chlorophenyl]-4-cyano-1H-pyrazol-5-yl) acrylamide ( 5III-f) showed the significant antifungal activity against three fungi. In addition, 5III-d and 5III-f exhibited the excellent inhibitory effect against succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzymes with IC 50 values ranging from 19.4 to 28.7 μM. The study demonstrates that the chlorine substituent group is present on both the phenyl and pyrazole rings that have a very good effect on the antifungal effect, and the compounds 5III-d and 5III-f can act as potential SDH inhibitors (SDHI) and throw a sprat for a new generation of SDHI.

In this work, a novel dual-excitation and dual-emission fluorescent probe , CDs–COO–Fluorescein (CDs–COO–F), for the specific detection of hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) was designed and synthesized through esterification reaction of carbon dots (CDs) and fluorescein (F). The prepared CDs were characterized by TEM, XPS , XRD and FT-IR and the optical properties of CDs and CDs–COO–F were described by UV–vis and fluorescence spectra. On the other hand, the affecting factors including hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) concentration and interfering substances on the hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) detection were researched. The high sensitivity and high selectivity of CDs–COO–F in detection hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) could be confirmed. Two good linear responses of fluorescence emission intensities of CDs–COO–F at 462 nm and 515 nm as functions of hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) concentration were obtained, respectively. The limits of detection hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) were 0.504 μM and 0.269 μM under 370 nm and 480 nm excitation wavelength lights, respectively. The detecting mechanism of hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) by CDs–COO–F was deduced from the experimental results. Cell imaging and cytotoxicity experiments of CDs–COO–F were measured. The experiment results show that the fluorescent probe CDs–COO–F can be applied to detect hydrazine (N 2 H 4 ) in aqueous solution and living cells.

Polymeric quaternary ammonium salts (PQAS) have been widely used to prevent microbial contamination, but little is known about their activity against phytopathogenic fungi. Our previous report described the synthesis of two novel PQAS, namely a homopolymer of (2-methacrylamido) propyltetrabenzyldimethylammonium chloride (PQD-BC) and dimethylaminopropyl benzyl chloride-grafted polysiloxanes (PDMS-g-BC); we demonstrated their structure-activity relationship against phytopathogenic fungi such as R . solani and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc4). Here, we analyzed the structure-activity relationship and toxicity mechanism of these compounds at the molecular level against Foc4 compared with the low molecular-weight quaternary ammonium salt benzalkonium chloride (BC). The results revealed that PQD-BC and PDMS-g-BC application inhibited the growth of Foc4 in a concentration-dependent manner and that PDMS-g-BC exhibited higher activity than PQD-BC. In addition, these polymers were found to induce cell death in Foc4 by disrupting the cellular structure integrity, such as the loss of the cell wall and plasma membrane integrity and oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation), leading to the release of intracellular contents and inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and interference with genomic DNA . The newly elucidated mechanism provides possible applications in which PQAS can be used against phytopathogenic fungi.

The development of cobalt-free P2-Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2cathodes is hampered by poor electrochemical performance, resulting from structural instability during high-voltage cycling. Herein, Li+and F−ions are introduced simultaneously via a simple sol–gel method. The F not only enters the lattice but forms chemically stable NaF on the surface. The modified electrode delivered significantly better electrochemical performance than the pristine one, including much-enhanced capacity retention (64% vs. 36%, 100 cycles) at 0.5 C and a four-time higher capacity output at 10 C. The ex situ XRD and in situ Raman analysis revealed cyclability enhancement mechanisms in terms of inhibiting the P2–O2 phase transition and Na+/vacancy ordering. The conductivity measurements (based on AC impedance and DC polarization) and GITT analysis proved, on both bulk material and electrode levels, that Na+conduction and, thus, rate performance is notably promoted by doping. The individual contribution of Li and F to the overall performance improvement was also discussed. Furthermore, a solid-state sodium-metal battery was successfully demonstrated with the modified cathode. The above results verify that Li+/F−incorporation can enable enhancements in both cyclability and rate capability of the P2-Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2cathodes and are expected to provide a new perspective for the rational design of high-performance layered oxide cathode materials for progressive sodium-ion batteries.

Achieving a stable interface between sulfide solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) and high-voltage Ni-rich oxide cathodes is crucial for enhancing the electrochemical performance of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). However, addressing the interface challenges through surface coating modifications remains a significant hurdle. In this work, a straightforward modification approach is proposed to achieve a highly stable interface by surface dual doping of Zr and F in LiNi 0.83 Co 0.12 Mn 0.05 O 2 (NCM83) cathodes via acid washing followed by annealing. First-principle calculations demonstrate the thermodynamic stability of Zr-F doped NCM83, effectively inhibiting the formation of unfavorable interfaces with decomposition products. The modified NCM83-1% ZrF cathode exhibits exceptional long-cycle stability, retaining 85.1% of its capacity after 1000 cycles at 0.5C rate. This simple and scalable modification strategy offers a new perspective for the design of high-performance sulfide-based ASSBs.

A copper-catalysed cascade ester amidation/radical cyclization of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones with α-bromocarboxylates to afford benzo[f]indole-2,4,9(3H)-triones is described, and the reaction has a broad substrate scope and the desired products are obtained in mostly moderate to good yields. Mechanism-probing experiments indicate that the otherwise challenging radical coupling reaction of α-bromocarboxylates with 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones is facilitated by a 5-endo radical cyclization.

To efficiently utilize solar energy and catalyze the water splitting reaction under visible-light, a novel strategy of first nitridation and subsequent calcination post-treatment methods is developed to prepare N,F-codoped TiO2 (TNOF) photocatalysts in this work. The prepared sample exhibits obvious band-to-band absorption with an edge up to ca. 580 nm. After calcinating the nitrided sample at low temperature in air, the Ti3+ defects, which could trap photo-generated electrons during photocatalysis, would be significantly reduced. Under visible-light irradiation, the TNOF photocatalyst presents excellent water oxidation performance in AgNO3 aqueous solution or Fe3+ reversible electron acceptor. Based on the obtained TNOF sample, an efficient Z-scheme water overall splitting system is successfully constructed combining with a known Ru/SrTiO3:Rh H2-evolution photocatalyst. Moreover, the TNOF photocatalysts also show good visible-light-driven water reduction and CO2 reduction activities. This work presents a novel strategy to prepare nitrogen-incorporated oxide photocatalysts with low defect concentrations for photocatalytic applications.
