Aluminum-water (Al-H2O) batteries, enabling on-demand high-purity hydrogen production and simultaneous power output, hold great promise for hydrogen energy and electrochemical energy storage applications. However, severe self-corrosion of aluminum anode and parasitic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in highly alkaline electrolytes hinder their practical deployment. This work proposes a novel organic-inorganic hybrid corrosion inhibitor comprising sodium 3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (MPS) and zinc oxide (ZnO). Combined experimental and computational investigations demonstrate that a dense, robust adsorption-deposition composite protective layer is formed on the anode surface via a "molecular bridging" synergistic mechanism, delivering a corrosion inhibition efficiency of 72.9%. In alkaline Al-H2O full-cell tests, the battery achieves 77.5% anode utilization, and a specific capacity of 2309 mAh g-1 at 20 mA cm-2. This work offers valuable guidance for designing high-performance hybrid corrosion inhibitors for Al anodes.

Conquering the anodic passivation effects is essential to achieve the validity of the electrorefining process in room temperature ionic liquids. Herein, we investigated the effect mechanism of H 2 O on the removal of AlCl 3 (s) passivation layer on the surface of aluminum anode and the deposition of aluminum foil on the cathode in EmimCl-AlCl 3 ionic liquid. The results indicate that the introduced H 2 O derives an intermediate species AlCl 3 OH − , which is the key to de-passivation. The de-passivation effect of AlCl 3 OH − is divided into three stages with the anodic potential increase: under the low anodic potential of 0.8 V, it derives the black passivation film AlCl 2 OH(s), and consumes the AlCl 3 (s) passivation layer derived by Al 2 Cl 7 − → AlCl 4 − + AlCl 3 (s) at the anodic potential of 1.6 V ~ 2.2 V. Moreover, the derived AlCl 2 OH(s) is simultaneously also consumed up by the reaction AlCl 2 OH(s) + AlCl 4 − → Al 2 Cl 6 OH − . At the higher anodic potential of 2.2 V, it consumes up the derived AlCl 3 passivation layer, which ensures the continuous dissolution of the aluminum anode, resulting in the high anode dissolution current efficiency of about 100 %. On the other hand, the aluminum foil is electrodeposited by the electrochemical reduction of 4Al 2 Cl 7 − and Al 2 Cl 6 OH − species. However, the introduction of H 2 O reduces the current efficiency of the aluminum foil electrodeposition from 97 % to 90 % as the anodic potential increases from 1.6 V to 3.0 V. In addition, the lithium cobaltate half-cell with the electrodeposited aluminum foil collector shows a superior capacity retention rate of 98.33 % for 150 cycles at 0.5C current density.

Conventional photodynamic therapy (PDT) has limited applications in clinical cancer therapy due to the insufficient O 2 supply, inefficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and low penetration depth of light. In this work, a multifunctional nanoplatform, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)@TiO 2 @MnO 2 core/shell/sheet nanocomposites (UTMs), is designed and constructed to overcome these drawbacks by generating O 2 in situ, amplifying the content of singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) and hydroxyl radical (•OH) via water-splitting, and utilizing 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) light to increase penetration depth. Once UTMs are accumulated at tumor site, intracellular H 2 O 2 is catalyzed by MnO 2 nanosheets to generate O 2 for improving oxygen-dependent PDT. Simultaneously, with the decomposition of MnO 2 nanosheets and 980 nm NIR irradiation, UCNPs can efficiently convert NIR to ultraviolet light to activate TiO 2 and generate toxic ROS for deep tumor therapy. In addition, UCNPs and decomposed Mn 2+ can be used for further upconversion luminescence and magnetic resonance imaging in tumor site. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that this nanoplatform can significantly improve PDT efficiency with tumor imaging capability, which will find great potential in the fight against tumor.

The construction of a comprehensive thermodynamic model for boron-containing salt brine is important. However, the general lack of the solubility of H 3 BO 3 + salt + H 2 O ternary systems makes it difficult to determine model parameters involving boron species. Here, we systematically determined the solubility isotherms of the H 3 BO 3 + CsCl + H 2 O system at T = (273.15, 298.15, 323.15, 348.15 and 363.15) K. There are three solubility branches corresponding to H 3 BO 3(cr) , CsCl (cr) and a novel adduct in the system. The determined composition of the adduct is 2H 3 BO 3 ·3CsCl. Moreover, the single crystal structure of 2H 3 BO 3 ·3CsCl is solved, suggesting that H 3 BO 3 molecules keep it native plane-triangle structure, but the O atoms coordinate to the Cs ion. We modeled these ternary solubility isotherms using the Pitzer-Simonson-Clegg (PSC) model implemented in the ISLEC program. With the help of the model, a complete polythermal phase diagram of the system was constructed for the temperature range from 250 K to 373.15 K. The determined standard thermodynamic quantities of 2H 3 BO 3 ·3CsCl (cr) from the model are Δ f G m Θ = − 3182.26 kJ∙mol −1 , Δ f H m Θ = − 3496.19 kJ∙mol −1 , S m Θ = 485.85 J∙K −1 ∙mol −1 , C p , m Θ = 320 J∙K −1 ∙mol −1 , respectively.

CuO-ZnO is a key catalyst widely used in catalytic processes such as dehydrogenation and hydrogenation. Hence, revealing the impact of H2O and H2 on the stability of CuO-ZnO catalysts is of critical importance. In this work, a CuO-ZnO/SiO2 catalyst with highly dispersed CuO-ZnO interface active sites was synthesized, and the structure-activity relationship and deactivation mechanism were systematically investigated using a model reaction (the cyclodehydrogenation of 1-amino-2-propanol to 2,5-dimethylpyrazine) that simultaneously generates H2O and H2. Under optimized reaction conditions (250 °C, space velocity: 1.5 h-1, and N2 flow rate: 8 mL/min), a 2,5-dimethylpyrazine yield of 68.1% was achieved over the 20%CuO-ZnO/SiO2-3:2 catalyst. The investigation into the deactivation mechanism reveals that Cu species agglomeration and carbon deposition are the primary reasons for the decline in activity. The roles of H2 and H2O in catalyst stability were found to be different: H2 suppressed the aggregation of metallic Cu0, while H2O enhanced stability by suppressing the formation of carbon deposits. Based on the understanding of the deactivation mechanism, catalyst regeneration was performed through air calcination, recovering the 2,5-dimethylpyrazine yield to 88.1% of the initial value. Overall, this work reveals the deactivation pathways and stabilization mechanisms of CuO-ZnO/SiO2 catalysts under reactive atmospheres containing H2 and H2O, offering theoretical guidance for industrial application and design of a highly stable CuO-ZnO catalyst.

Hydrolysis of cellulose into C 6 sugars is the starting point and entry point for biomass refining and is an important pathway for biofuel production. However, biomass-based 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a highly catalytic promising but underutilized organic carboxylic acid. In this paper, we investigated the use of easily recoverable FDCA as a catalyst for the hydrolysis of cellulose to produce C 6 sugars in a γ-valerolactone/water (GVL/H 2 O) green solvent system. FDCA has high inherent acidity (pKa = 2.76) and stability with unique solubility in aqueous solutions and many solvents. These properties allows it to meet both high temperature solubility for efficient homogeneous hydrolysis reactions and low temperature crystallization catalysts for high purity recovery. This process not only solves the problem of solid-solid mass transfer between solid acid and cellulose which limits the hydrolysis rate, but also eliminates the problem of difficult separation and recovery of liquid acid catalysts. The results showed when initial concentration of microcrystalline cellulose was 0.7 wt%（equivalent to 7 g/L）, and the initial dosage of FDCA was 2.0 wt%, the maximum yield of C 6 sugars reached 72.9% (40.1% glucose and 32.8% fructose) in GVL/H 2 O (60/40, V/V) with a reaction at 200 °C for 30 min. More importantly, FDCA can achieve 80% recovery and ＞99% spectroscopic purity recovery. This study reveals the potential of FDCA as a catalyst in the catalytic conversion of biomass, which provides a new pathway for the green and efficient conversion of biomass resources.

In order to separate cesium nitrate from the eluant mixture sodium nitrate solution, the phase equilibrium of the ternary system (NaNO 3 + CsNO 3 + H 2 O) at 338.15 K and 0.1 MPa was investigated using the isothermal equilibrium solution method, and the solubilities and physicochemical properties (density and refractive index) of the system were determined, experimentally. According to the experimental data, the phase diagram and physicochemical properties versus the composition diagram of the ternary system at 338.15 K were established for the first time. There is one invariant point (NaNO 3 + CsNO 3 ), two univariant curves, and two crystallizing regions corresponding to NaNO 3 and CsNO 3 . The phase diagram belongs to a simple-type ternary system, and neither double salt nor solid solution was formed. Based on the phase diagrams of this system at 298.15 and 338.15 K, the cycle separation process for CsNO 3 recovery from the eluant of sodium nitrate mixture solution was evolved. It is worth noting that 90.29 % CsNO 3 can be separated from the mixed solution after three cycles. It is significant for the green recovery of cesium nitrate from the eluent solution containing sodium nitrate effectively.

In this work, the influences of 4ZnO·B 2 O 3 ·H 2 O zinc borate (ZB) whisker based intumescent flame retardant (IFR) containing ammonium polyphosphate and dipentaerythritol on the mechanical, flame retardant and smoke suppression properties of polypropylene (PP) composites were characterized by the universal testing machine, UL-94, limiting oxygen index (LOI), and cone calorimeter tests, respectively. The results indicate that only 1 phr of ZB could effectively improve the LOI value and slow down the burning rate of PP composite. The peak heat release rate, average of HRR, total heat release, peak smoke production rate, and total smoke production values are all decreased from 413.8 kW/m 2 , 166.3 kW/m 2 , 82.3 MJ/m 2 , 0.0995 m 2 /s, and 17.9 m 2 for PPc/20IFR composite to 267.8 kW/m 2 , 128.3 kW/m 2 , 66.8 MJ/m 2 , 0.0478 m 2 /s, and 12.6 m 2 for PPc/20IFR/1ZB composite, respectively. The scanning electron microscopy images, energy dispersive spectrometry, and Raman spectra of char residue reveal that ZB is helpful to form a compact and graphitized intumescent char residue so that the heat diffusion and oxygen transmission are greatly hindered. The thermogravimetry analysis-fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TGA-FTIR) results show that less combustible volatiles and more H 2 O vapor are generated with the appearance of ZB. Hence, the combustion mechanism in gas phase is suppressed.

Its crystal structure and spectroscopic features have been investigated in details by physicochemical methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Different from other mononuclear metal-flavonolate complexes, this complex demonstrates a cluster molecular structure which has four Ni II centers, and each Ni II centre is coordinated by a bidentate flavonolate, three methanol and a water molecule. The crystal of this complex is tetragonal crystal system: space group I 41/a, a = 24.4361(14), b = 24.4361(14), c = 12.7972 (14), α = β = γ = 90 ° , V = 7641.5 (12), Z = 4.

The solubilities and the refractive indices in the ternary system LiBO 2 −Li 2 B 4 O 7 −H 2 O at 298.15 K and 323.15 K were determined with the isothermal dissolution method. The phase diagrams and refractive index diagrams were drawn with the experimental values. The phase diagrams at 298.15 K and 323.15 K consist of one invariant point, two univariant curves and two crystallization regions corresponding to Li 2 B 4 O 7 ·3H 2 O, LiBO 2 ·8H 2 O (at 298.15 K) and LiBO 2 ·2H 2 O (at 323.15 K). Based on the Pitzer model, the mixing ion-interaction parameters ( θ B ( O H ) 4 − , B 4 O 5 ( OH ) 4 2 − and Ψ L i + , B ( O H ) 4 − , B 4 O 5 ( O H ) 4 2 − ) at 298.15 K and 323.15 K were fitted with the solubility data. A comparison shows that the calculated solubilities in the ternary system at 298.15 and 323.15 K agree well with the experimental data. The phase diagram and Pitzer model for the ternary system were then used to conduct isothermal evaporation simulation. Different salt will be obtained if the original solution point in different unsaturated regions.

It is of importance to reclaim single-salt of potash from Li + -type brines of low concentration. In this work the potassium salts KHCO 3 was efficiently separated from the lithium carbonate-type brines with the aid of CO 2 carbonation. The phase field was provided in which the precipitation of KHCO 3 occurs and single-salt of potassium can be obtained. The low concentration of [Li + ] was also successfully concentrated to a high level (8.1 g/L), and this concentration can be used as sources for Li + -salts production using pre-developed strategies, which looks forward wider applications of the lithium resources of natural brine. This state-of-art was traced via isotherm evaporation on the quaternary system of Li + –K + –CO 3 2− –H 2 O at 298.15 K in which the carbonation steps were performed by CO 2 . Metastable phase diagram was found to consist of three invariant points, seven univariant curves, and four crystallization fields corresponding to Li 2 CO 3 , KHCO 3 , potassium carbonate sesquihydrate (K 2 CO 3 ⋅ 3/2H 2 O), and a potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate double salt (K 2 CO 3 ⋅ 2 KHCO 3 ⋅ 1.5H 2 O). There was no crystallization field corresponding to LiHCO 3 . The pH-composition diagram and density-composition diagram were also plotted. This work was carried out in aim of extracting/separating single salts of alkali metals from carbonate-type brines of west China.

In this work, we designed three kinds of functional deep eutectic solvents (DESs) to capture SO2 in simulated flue gas. The DESs were composed of imidazole (Im), 2-methylimidazole, and 2-ethylimidazole as the hydrogen-bond acceptor (HBA) and H2O as the hydrogen-bond donor (HBD). The absorption results showed that the mole absorption capacities of 2.1 vol % SO2 by the three DESs at 40 °C were all about 1 mol of SO2/mol of HBA. Im–H2O DES (nHBA/nHBD = 1:4) shows a mass absorption capacity of 0.331 g of SO2/g of DES, which is the highest value reported in the literature. The mole ratio of HBD/HBA, flow rate of flue gas, and other acid gases in flue gas did not influence the absorption capacity of SO2. The absorption capacity decreased when the temperature increased. The absorption capacity of SO2 was almost the same after absorbing and desorbing 5 times. Furthermore, the results of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared analyses showed that SO2 was interacted with Im by forming Im sulfite.
