Underground CO2 storage is a key strategy for mitigating climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, the heterogeneity of reservoirs poses challenges to effectively storing CO2 in designated spaces. In this study, an environmentally friendly CO2-responsive ionic liquid (IL) DA-Ch was synthesized by choline hydroxide (Ch) and dodecanedioic acid (DA) at a 2:1 mol ratio. The innovative system enhances the sweep efficiency and storage capacity of CO2 by enabling the transition of DA-Ch ILs aqueous solution from low-viscosity liquids (0.5 mPa·s at 0.1 mol/L) to solid microparticles upon CO2 introduction. After CO2 injection, DA precipitated again from the DA-Ch ILs aqueous solution with a volume mean particle size of micrometers, even under high-salinity conditions. This phase transition effectively plugs preferential flow channels, expanding CO2 storage space by 82% compared to conventional CO2 flooding. Our findings propose a novel, sustainable approach to address gas channeling challenges in subsurface CO2 storage, offering dual benefits for carbon sequestration and enhanced oil recovery.

The equilibrium solubility of quetiapine fumarate was determined in twelve individual solvents and one binary solvent mixture by the gravimetric method at atmospheric pressure over a temperature range of 283.15–323.15 K. The results showed that the solubility increases with increasing temperature in all selected solvents. The solubility order is tetrahydrofuran–water (mole fraction of tetrahydrofuran 0.8083) > tetrahydrofuran > n-propanol > dichloromethane > butanone > methyl isobutyl ketone > xylenes > ethyl formate > tert-butyl methyl ether > isopropyl acetate > toluene > hexane ≈ heptane. The modified Apelblat model, λh model, nonrandom two-liquid model, and van’t Hoff–Jouyban–Acree model were employed to correlate the experimental solubility. The four models provided satisfactory fits, as confirmed by the average relative deviation and the root-mean-square deviation. The modified Apelblat model showed the best performance among them. The accurate solubility data are essential for the design and optimization of the crystallization process of QF.

This work describes the separation performance of utilizing hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) as the stationary phase for capillary gas chromatography (GC). The statically coated h-BN column showed moderate polarity and achieved column efficiencies of 3455 plates/m and 3800 plates/m for naphthalene and n -dodecane, respectively. With temperature-dependent structure properties, the h-BN stationary phase exhibited stronger retention for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) over phthalic acid esters (PAEs) and showed advantageous separation performance over the g-C 3 N 4 and commercial polysiloxane stationary phases. Moreover, it displayed preferential retention for halogenated analytes and high resolution performance for structural and positional isomers. In addition, the h-BN column showed good column repeatability with relative standard deviation (RSD) values of 0.03%–0.07% for run-to-run, 0.31%–0.71% for day-to-day and 2.6%–5.3% for column-to-column, respectively, and thermal stability up to 260 °C.

Due to the high conformal films, atomic layer deposition (ALD) alumina has been used as a uniform stationary phase or support layer of stationary phase for micro gas chromatographic column. However, the severe tailing of chromatographic peaks appears when ALD alumina is used as the stationary phase. Recently, an H-diffusion model was proposed to explain the H accumulation phenomenon of ALD alumina films. Compared with the normal-resistance silicon substrates, the ALD alumina films based on low-resistance silicon substrates have fewer H impurities, which may further improve the tailing of chromatographic peaks and the theoretical number of plates. In this paper, a micro gas chromatographic column based on the low-resistance silicon (LR-μGCC) substrate (resistivity, 0.001–0.005 Ω·cm) using alumina deposited by atomic layer deposition as the stationary phase is reported. Compared with normal-resistance silicon substrates (resistivity, 1–10 Ω·cm), the micro gas chromatographic columns (μGCC) prepared on low-resistance silicon substrates have a higher separation performance. The test results showed that the LR-μGCC increased the theoretical plate number of alkane mixtures (n-hexane, n-octane, n-nonane, and n-decane) by 20.9%, 74.8%, 139.4%, and 55.4%, respectively, and reduced the tailing factor by 13.0%, 41.8%, 48.6%, and 49.1%, respectively.

The objective of this study was to investigate the stability and aerosolization of pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) containing thymopentin nanoparticles . Thymopentin nanoparticles, fabricated by a bottom-up process, were suspended in hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) 134a together with cineole and/or n -heptane to produce pMDI formulations. The stability study of the pMDIs obtained was carried out at ambient temperature for 6 months. The amount of thymopentin and the aerosolization properties of pMDIs were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and a twin-stage impinger (TSI), respectively. Based on the results, thymopentin nanoparticles were readily suspended in HFA 134a with the aid of cineole and/or n -heptane to form physically stable pMDI formulations, and more than 98% of the labeled amount of thymopentin and over 50% of the fine particle fraction (FPF) of the pMDIs were achieved. During storage, it was found that for all pMDIs more than 97% of the labeled amount of thymopentin and FPF greater than 47% were achieved. Moreover, the size of thymopentin nanoparticles in propellant containing cineole and n -heptane showed little change. It is, therefore, concluded that the pMDIs comprising thymopentin nanoparticles developed in this study were stable and suitable for inhalation therapy for systemic action.

The development of efficient and stable solid acid catalysts for the Beckmann Rearrangement is critical to advancing sustainable chemical synthesis. However, challenges persist in balancing active site density, structural stability, and mass transfer efficiency. To address these limitations, nanosphere sulfonic acid resins were synthesized through soap-free emulsion polymerization and evaluated in the liquid-phase Beckmann Rearrangement, achieving exceptional performance with 86.96 % conversion and 96.12 % selectivity. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations revealed distinct catalytic performance of terminal sulfonate groups versus paired sulfonate groups, with the latter found to be the dominant active sites. Three distinct reaction pathways for cyclohexanone oxime (COX) were proposed based on the spatially constrained distribution of the two different active sites within the catalyst architecture, supported by subsequent DFT calculations providing mechanistic insights into the differential characteristics. Characterization of the catalysts through BET, SEM, TEM, FT-IR, TG, and acid-base titration indicated that 20 % divinylbenzene (DVB) content yielded the highest acidic sites density, while 10 % DVB content produced the most uniform nanosphere morphology. Notably, turnover number (TON) analysis demonstrated that the catalyst with 10 % DVB content exhibited a TON 1.7 times higher than that of commercial resin, underscoring its superior efficiency.

The moisture, oil, protein, and nervonic acid contents are crucial criteria for assessing the nutritional value and processing quality of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge seed kernels (XSKs). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers a viable alternative to conventional chemical methods for rapid and non-destructive sample analysis. This study employed a highly adaptive method known as competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), which facilitates variable selection for different components and streamlines the feature-variable screening process. Using this method, various algorithms were applied to establish NIRS detection models for the four components of XSKs, and accuracy evaluations were conducted using the prediction set determination coefficient ( R P 2 ), root-mean-square error (RMSEP), and other parameters. The results indicated that CARS effectively extracted key information on various components in NIRS. Based on the feature variables selected by CARS, the partial least squares regression (PLSR) model exhibited optimal performance regarding moisture ( R P 2 = 0.978, RMSEP = 0.117 %) and nervonic acid content ( R P 2 = 0.988, RMSEP = 0.072 %). Meanwhile, the particle swarm optimization-enhanced support vector regression (PSO-SVR) model and back-propagation neural networks (BPNN) achieved superior performance for protein ( R P 2 = 0.989, RMSEP = 0.243 %) and oil content ( R P 2 = 0.978, RMSEP = 0.467 %), respectively. These models enable rapid and non-destructive detection of multi-component content, thereby facilitating the expeditious identification and selection of XSKs with high nutritional value and superior quality.

Sebum fatty acids and squalene are major components of skin secretions and play a critical role in the pathogenesis of dermatological conditions through their compositional alterations. Human sebum fatty acids are uniquely diverse in their chain length, double bond positions, and chain branching; squalene is a rare component of skin secretions with six double bonds. We introduce a facile workflow for the analysis of sebum fatty acids and squalene for elucidating their contribution to the state of skin health or disease using advanced mass spectrometric methods for qualitative and quantitative analyses. Sebum from dermatologically healthy individuals was extracted, and covalent adduct chemical ionization (CACI), electron ionization (EI), and Paternò–Büchi (PB) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) techniques were employed for the identification of fatty acids with varying methyl branch and/or carbon–carbon double bond positions. A method for the full structural characterization of squalene via CACI tandem mass spectrometry was also developed. In sebum, we report for the first time unusual straight-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid isomers (n18:2n-7, n18:2n-3, n20:2n-12, and n20:2n-7), a series of previously unreported branched-chain saturated fatty acids with C19–C26, and a novel branched-chain monounsaturated fatty acid i15:1n-9. A total of 64 fatty acids were identified, exceeding the previous reports. Our study established a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative workflow for the analysis of sebum fatty acids and squalene, with the potential to advance dermatological research and clinical diagnostics.

Interfacial self-assembly offers a promising route to fabricate functional materials, yet achieving robust mechanical performance remains challenging. Here, the self-assembly of nonionic surfactant polyoxyethylene monoalkyl ether (AEO-9) at oil–water interfaces was systematically investigated to form a high-strength interfacial gel. During the self-assembly process, the mechanical strength of the interfacial gel progressively increased, reaching a maximum equilibrium value of 4200 Pa after 24 h. Furthermore, significant gradients in the composition, microstructure, and micromechanical properties of the interfacial gel along the sample height were revealed by fluorescence microscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). This unique interfacial self-assembly behavior was further studied via dynamic light scattering and molecular simulations. The solubility differences and polar–hydrophobic interactions are the key factors. Directional migration of AEO-9 from the oil phase (low solubility) to the aqueous phase (high solubility), driven by solubility differences, was found to establish a transient interfacial concentration gradient. This gradient facilitated interfacial enrichment of AEO-9, which was subsequently organized into gradient lamellar liquid crystals (LC) through compositional heterogeneity and polar–hydrophobic interactions. The gradient variations in micromechanical properties were correlated with the gradient structural packing. Moreover, the effects of AEO-9 concentration, brine, temperature, and oil type on the gel’s mechanical properties were examined, highlighting their roles in modulating the polar–hydrophobic balance. This study reveals the dual control of solubility-driven migration and interfacial interactions on gradient formation, establishing a framework for the design of high-performance interfacial materials.

Due to the increasingly stringent environmental regulations and the great demand for sustainable materials, fluorine-free water- and oil-resistant coatings for paper have attracted considerable attention in the field of packaging and decoration. In this study, acrylated epoxidized soybean oil (AESO) and pentaerythritol tetrakis(mercaptoacetate) (PETMA) were used as reactants to form a crosslinked film on kraft paper through a UV-initiated thiol-ene click reaction, followed by the spraying of a mixed dispersion of silica (SiO 2 ) and AESO/PETMA solution, and a fluorine-free water- and oil-resistant composite coating on kraft paper was obtained. When the molar ratio of CC bonds of AESO to SH groups from PETMA was 1:1 and the content of SiO 2 was 20% of the mass of AESO, the water contact angle of the coated paper reached 141°, far higher than that of the uncoated paper at 56.5°. Meanwhile, compared with uncoated paper, the Cobb 60 value of the coated paper sharply decreased from 67.1 to 1.4 g m −2 , demonstrating excellent water resistance. In addition, the oil contact angle of the coated paper also attained 137°, and kit rating of 12/12. The coated paper also exhibited excellent barrier properties to hot castor oil.

To meet the requirement of thermal management of modern electronic devices, polymer composites with high thermal conductivity (TC) and dielectric performance are nowadays in urgent demand. Herein, a highly ordered continuous network of boron nitride nano-sheet (BNNS) was constructed in cyclic olefin polymer (COP) films via the forced flow processing in the rubbery state (FFRS), melt-spinning, fiber-alignment, and hot-pressing procedures. The composites exhibited superior TC, low dielectric permittivity, and low dielectric loss simultaneously. The in-plane TC of the composites reached 3.92 W/(mK) when the content of BNNS was at 27 weight percentage (27 wt%), since the procedures improved the face-to-face contact between the BNNS (which was exfoliated, dispersed, and in-plane oriented during FFRS), enhancing the continuity of the BNNS thermally conductive network. Both the TC and the experimental results indicated the outstanding heat dissipation performance of the composites. Meanwhile, the dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss of the 27 wt% BNNS composites were 2.56 and 0.00085 at 10 GHz, respectively, lower than that of the COP-POE matrix. Moreover, the mechanical properties, water vapor permeability, and coefficient of thermal expansion of the composites were excellent. The composites with such highly ordered continuous networks are very promising in high-performance electronic devices.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials with excellent shielding performance, salt spray resistance, and light weight are crucial for electronic devices operating in harsh environments. Here, anti-salt spray and conductive foams with high shielding effectiveness were successfully developed. Firstly, Ag conductive networks were constructed on the surface of melamine foams via polydopamine-assisted electroless plating. Subsequently, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with dual functionality was introduced through dipping method. The rGO films not only enhanced the shielding effectiveness by creating multiple interfaces and conductive pathways through sealing the open-cell structures (70 dB → 92 dB), but also improved salt spray resistance by forming a protective layer over the Ag surface. Finally, an ultra-thin polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating was applied to further enhance salt spray resistance through superhydrophobic surfaces (contact angle ≈ 153°), resulting from its inherent low surface energy and the surface roughness generated by the aggregated Ag particles. Moreover, PDMS increased the mechanical durability of the composite foams by encapsulating the conductive network and matrix like “glue”. The composite foams exhibited excellent EMI shielding effectiveness (90 dB) and maintained performance stability after salt spray corrosion and compression damage. This work presented a method to develop high-shielding-efficiency foams for harsh environment applications.
