Singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) is an electrophilic oxidant capable of selectively eliminating contaminants in complex wastewater, which is highly expected in environmental remediation. However, due to the limitations in synthesizing catalysts with well-defined adsorption and active sites, the efficient and selective generation of 1 O 2 remains challenging. Herein, isolated Ru-O 3 moiety decorated two-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 T x catalysts (Ru-SA/Ti 3 C 2 T x ) were prepared to regulate 1 O 2 generation via peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. The constructed catalysts with asymmetric dual-metal structures (Ti-O-Ru) exhibited surprising mass activity of 1.4 × 10 4 min −1 ·mol −1 with a high 1 O 2 generation selectivity of 98.3 %. Mechanism inquiry indicated that the enhanced adsorption and electron transfer between PMS and Ru-SA/Ti 3 C 2 T x attributed to the synergistic effect of the strong adsorption at the Ru sites and the rapid electron transfer in the asymmetric Ti-O-Ru structures. Theoretical calculations demonstrated that Ru-O 3 moiety decreased the formation energy barrier of key intermediate *O, thus converting to a 1 O 2 -dominated oxidation path. Two possible degradation pathways of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) were proposed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS), and the toxicities of intermediates were significantly decreased due to the strong electrophilic attack of 1 O 2 . This study deepened the understanding of the specific contribution of individual sites in multi-site synergistic, which furnished implications for the design and optimization of Fenton-like catalysts.

Non-stoichiometric Nd[Mg 0.5 Sn 0.5(1+ x ) ]O 3 (− 0.04 ≤ x ≤ + 0.04)—type samples were prepared using a traditional two-step solid-state sintering process. Their crystal structures, phase compositions, dielectric properties and lattice vibrational characteristics were identified in detail. The double perovskite Nd(Mg 0.5 Sn 0.5 )O 3 with a monoclinic structure was distinguished as the main crystalline phase, and pure phase was obtained when x < 0. The sample [Nd(Mg 0.5 Sn 0.49 )O 3 ] at x = − 0.02 shows the excellent dielectric properties: ε r = 18.74, Q × f = 47,979 GHz. The lattice vibrational characteristics were clarified with Raman and infrared active mode spectroscopy. The intrinsic properties were fitted by four-parameter semi-quantum model, which show that the low-frequency infrared modes yield a more significant contribution to permittivity and dielectric loss. Raman shifts of modes F 2g (A) and F 2g (B) correlate with dielectric constants negatively, which implies that the bond length has a positive correlation with permittivity. Full widths at half maximum of vibrational modes A 1g (O) correlate with dielectric loss values positively and correlate with the degree of order ( S ) negatively.

Photovoltaic wastewater contains a large amount of thiourea that cannot be directly treated by biological methods because of its biotoxicity. In this study, a novel O3/H2O2 + BiPO4/UV synergy technique was used as a pre-treatment process to degrade thiourea. The effects of H2O2 and catalyst loading were investigated, and the transformation pathway of thiourea was predicted based on the intermediates detected by UPLC-Vion-IMS-QToF. The synergy technique degraded 89.14% thiourea within only 30 min, and complete degradation occurred after 150 min. The TOC removal of O3/H2O2 + BiPO4/UV was 1.8, 1.5, and 1.9 times that of O3/H2O2 and BiPO4/UV/H2O2 single processes and O3/H2O2 + UV process, respectively, which was due to the synergy between H2O2 residues and BiPO4. In addition, thiourea was mainly degraded by ·OH into thiourea dioxide and melamine (polymerized by other intermediates) and then further degraded into biuret and methyl carbamate by the holes of BiPO4, followed by complete mineralization into H2O and CO2. These results confirm that the O3/H2O2 + BiPO4/UV synergy technique is a promising option for the degradation of thiourea.

Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) have shown broad application prospects in the field of energy storage due to their low cost, high safety, wide operating temperature range, fast charging, and environmental friendliness. As one of the key components of SIBs, layered oxide cathodes have significant advantages such as high specific capacity, feasible energy density, and high operating voltage, but they also face challenges of poor interface stability and insufficient air stability. In this work, a P2/O3 biphasic system Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Fe 0.33 Mn 0.33 O 2 (Na0.67NFM) is synthesized by a sol-gel and subsequent solid phase calcination method. Furthermore, the structural characteristics of Na0.67NFM calcined at 900 °C (Na0.67NFM-900) are investigated, revealing that it maintains a high stability even after exposure in humid ambient air for 5 days. Although a small amount of Na 2 CO 3 and NaHCO 3 is produced on the surface of Na0.67NFM-900, the main P2/O3 structure still maintains overall integrity into the internal bulk phase. Therefore, the electrochemical performance of Na0.67NFM cathode is not significantly affected after short-term air exposure. After 200 cycles at 1C, the capacity retention of Na0.67NFM-900 cathode still remains 72.3 %, which is almost comparable to that of the unexposed one (75.7 %). This work indicates that Na0.67NFM is a promising candidate cathode material with exceptional air stability for SIBs.

O3-type cathodes with sufficient Na content are considered as promising candidates for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, these cathodes suffer from insufficient utilization of the active elements, restraining the delivered capacity. In this work, a high entropy strategy is applied to a typical O3 cathode NaLi 0.1 Ni 0.35 Mn 0.55 O 2 (NLNM), forming a high entropy oxide NaLi 0.1 Ni 0.15 Cu 0.1 Mg 0.1 Ti 0.2 Mn 0.35 O 2 (Na-HE). Results show that the active elements are fully exploited in Na-HE, with a two-electron reaction by Ni 2+/4+ (further extended to Cu redox and even oxygen redox), vastly different from a one-electron reaction of Ni 2+/3+ in NLNM. The full utilization of the active elements dramatically improves the output capacity of the cathode (122.6 mAh g −1 of Na-HE versus 81 mAh g −1 of NLNM). Moreover, the detrimental phase transition is well suppressed in Na-HE. The cathode exhibits high capacity retention of 88.7% after 100 cycles at 130 mA g −1 , compared to only 36.4% for NLNM. These findings provide new insight for the design of new cathode materials for SIBs with high energy density and robust stability.

O3-type layered oxides are promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries. However, unsatisfying cyclic stability hinders its practical application, mainly resulting from harmful phase transition and irreversible oxygen redox, especially in high-voltage regions. Herein, a co-doped strategy by incorporating Li + , Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , and Sb 5+ into the O3-Na 0.8 Ni 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 cathode materials is proposed. Both suppressing the undesired phase transition over 4.1 V (vs Na/Na + ) and reducing the anisotropic strain are achieved with the novel Na 0.8 Ni 0.3 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.3 Li 0.1 Mg 0.02 Ca 0.05 Sb 0.03 O 2 (LMCS NFM). Moreover, restricted but highly reversible oxygen redox is observed due to strong attraction from Sb 5+ and special “Li–O-vacancy” and “Mg–O-vacancy” configurations. The strategy brings about excellent high-voltage cyclic stability with a reversible capacity of 130 mAh g −1 and a capacity retention of 85% after 250 cycles at 4.2 V, and less thermal runaway risk and moisture sensitivity, increasing the probability of O3-type oxide cathode practical applications.

Bi(Zn 1/2 Ti 1/2 )O 3 −BiScO 3 −PbTiO 3 (BZT−BS−PT) high Curie temperature piezoelectric ceramics were synthesized by the conventional solid-state reaction method. Systematical investigations on the sintering, piezoelectric, and dielectric properties of the piezoceramics have been conducted. It was found that the sintering temperature could be remarkably depressed by varying the compositions in BZT−BS−PT systems. For composition of 11BZT−34BS−55PT ceramic, the sintering temperature is even lowered down to 750°C without any extra additions of sintering aids. Meanwhile, the ceramic sintered at this ultralow temperature presents dense microstructure with relative density up to 97%, as well as optimal properties of piezoelectric coefficient d 33 of 336 pC/N and Curie temperature of 415°C. The mechanism of low sintering temperature may be ascribed to the low melting point bismuth-based components in BZT−BS−PT solid solutions. Furthermore, 11BZT−34BS−55PT multilayer ceramics have been co-fired at 750°C with Ag internal electrodes. The dense structures, low cost, and optimal comprehensive properties of the co-fired multilayers illustrate obvious advantages of the ultralow sintering temperature in LTCC devices, implying promising applications of this Bi(Zn 1/2 Ti 1/2 )O 3 −BiScO 3 −PbTiO 3 high Curie temperature ternary system.

Herein, (1 − x )CaO–Al 2 O 3 –B 2 O 3 –SiO 2 (CABS)/ x Ba(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 (BMN; x = 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, and 0.6) composites were prepared, and the impact of the BMN and low-softening-point glass content in CABS/BMN composites on the sintering, dielectric, thermal, and mechanical properties of the prepared composites was investigated. The main crystal phases of the CABS/BMN composites are BMN and Ba 2 NaNb 5 O 15 (BNN). The crystallization temperature of the composite was reduced by an appropriate amount of BMN. BMN ceramics (40–60 wt%) was added to the CABS glass, and the composites were sintered at 800 °C, 825 °C, 850 °C, 875 °C, and 900 °C. To elucidate the influence mechanism of different glass contents and sintering temperatures on the properties of the composites, different qualitative and quantitative instruments were used to study the composite properties. The CABS/BMN composite containing 50 wt% CABS glass sintered at 875 °C exhibits the following ideal properties: volumetric density of 3.57 g/cm 3 , dielectric constant of 17.97, dielectric loss of 6 × 10 −4 , \(Q \times f\) value of 10,947 at 9.5 GHz, bending strength of 157.7 MPa, and coefficient of thermal expansion of 5.9 ppm/K. Microstructure analysis reveals that the microstructure of the composite is dense, the pores are few, the surface morphology is uniform and flat, and the composite does not react with silver electrodes, making it suitable for applications utilizing medium dielectric constant low-temperature co-fired ceramic materials at low sintering temperatures.

Layered transition metal oxides have been broadly studied due to their great potential in application as cathodes for sodium-ion batteries. However, many single-phase layered transition metal oxides, especially those crystallized in P2- or O3-type structure, possess their individual characteristics incurring unsatisfactory overall performances with respect to the reversible capacity, rate capability, and cycling stability. Here, an effective strategy of constructing the P2/O3 biphasic structure is realized in layered cathode Na 0.7 Ni 0.4 Mn 0.4 Ti 0.2 O 2 through Ti substitution. Through high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, the formation of P2/O3 intergrowth structure was clarified and the proportion of the two phases was determined. Benefitting from the presence of intergrowth structure, the layered cathode provides a competitive rate capability of 100 mAh/g at a high rate of 5 C as well as a prominent cycling stability of 80.04% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 5 C. The improved performance is closely related to the highly reversible phase transition process from P2/O3 to OP4/P3 with less strain and enhanced Na + kinetics. These findings evidence that exploring novel multiphase cathodes is an effective approach to improve the electrochemical performances of cathode for sodium-ion batteries.

The effects of Li substitution for Ti on the structure and electrochemical performances of Co-free Na0.67Mn0.55Ni0.25Ti0.2–xLixO2 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2) layered cathode materials for sodium ion batteries have been comprehensively investigated. X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement results demonstrate that Li mainly occupies TM (TM = transition metal) sites in the crystal structure to maintain the P2 structure majority and a small amount of Li atoms enter Na sites to generate some O3 phase. The discharge voltage, reversible capacity, rate capability, cycling performance, and Coulombic efficiency all have been improved by Li substitution, which can be largely attributed to the integration of P2 and O3. Li substitution also raises the average discharge voltage from 2.6 to 3.1 V. Na0.67Mn0.55Ni0.25Li0.2O2 (L02) can deliver an initial capacity of about 158 mA h g–1 at 0.05C (12 mA g–1) in comparison with the Li-free sample (147 mA h g–1). Even at the high rates of 480 (2C), 1200 (5C), and 1920 (8C) mA g–1, L02 can also display ca. 93, 65, and 38 mA h g–1 discharge capacities, respectively. The rate capability is higher than what is reported in the previous Li-substituted cathode materials. In addition, Li substitution in transition-metal sites generates more defects to maintain the charge neutrality, which enhances the electronic conductivity and also has a positive effect on the Na ion diffusion coefficient. The electronic conductivity and Na ion diffusion coefficient have been enhanced by 122% and 29%, respectively, with the substitution of Li for Ti. Our results also show that the oxidation peaks become sharper with increasing Li content, which indicates the feasibility of Na ion intercalation/deintercalation in the integrated P2/O3 phase. This study also offers some new insights into designing high-performance cathode materials for sodium ion batteries.

O3 phase layered oxides are highly attractive cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries because of their high capacity and decent initial Coulombic efficiency. However, their rate capability and long cycling life are unsatisfactory due to the narrow Na + transfer channel and irreversible phase transitions of O3 phase during sodiation/desodiation process. Constructing O3/P2 multiphase structures has been proven to be an effective strategy to overcome these challenges. In this study, we synthesized bi-phasic structured O3/P2 Na(Ni 2/9 Fe 1/3 Cu 1/9 Mn 1/3 ) 1- x Mn x O 2 ( x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05) materials through Mn doping during sodiation process. Benefiting from surface P2 phase layer with the enhanced Na + transfer dynamics and high structural stability , the Na(Ni 2/9 Fe 1/3 Cu 1/9 Mn 1/3 ) 0.98 Mn 0.02 O 2 (NFCM-M2) cathode delivers a reversible capacity of 139.1 mA h g −1 at 0.1 C, and retains 71.4 % of its original capacity after 300 cycles at 1 C. Our work provides useful guidance for designing multiphase cathodes and offers new insights into the structure-performance correlation for sodium-ion cathode materials.

The O3-type layered oxide materials have the advantage of high specific capacity, which makes them more competitive in the practical application of cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the existing reported O3-type layered oxide materials still have a complex irreversible phase transition phenomenon, and the cycle life of batteries needs, with these materials, to be further improved to meet the requirements. Herein, we performed structural characterization and electrochemical performance tests on O3-NaNi0.6−xFe0.25Mn0.15MgxO2(x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, and 0.075, denoted as NFM, NFM-2.5Mg, NFM-5.0Mg, and NFM-7.5Mg). The optimized NFM-2.5Mg has the largest sodium layer spacing, which can effectively enhance the transmission rate of sodium ions. Therefore, the reversible specific capacity can reach approximately 148.1 mAh g−1at 0.2C, and it can even achieve a capacity retention of 85.4% after 100 cycles at 1C, demonstrating excellent cycle stability. Moreover, at a low temperature of 0 °C, it also can keep capacity retention of 86.6% after 150 cycles at 1C. This study provides a view on the cycling performance improvement of sodium-ion layered oxide cathodes with a high theoretical specific capacity.
