Layered transition-metal oxides are recognized for their substantial potential as cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), particularly in the context of large-scale energy storage systems. O′3-NaMnO2 (NMO) has received considerable attention due to its cost-effectiveness, high capacity, and adequate initial sodium content. However, its practical application is hindered by issues, such as Jahn–Teller distortion and the migration of Mn during cycling, which result in severe irreversible phase transitions and structural collapse. In this study, the entropy strategy was employed to synthesize O′3-NaMn0.8Mg0.06Ti0.06Fe0.04Al0.04O2 (NMO-MTFA), which not only stabilized the crystal structure but also enhanced both the bulk and surface/interface kinetics. NMO-MTFA delivers a high initial discharge capacity of 190 mA h g–1 and demonstrates a superior cycling performance and rate capability. The stabilization of the crystal structure is further reinforced by the strengthened Mn–O interaction, achieved through the trace doping of multiple elements. This research underscores the efficacy of the entropy strategy in optimizing the performance of layered oxide cathodes, thereby presenting a novel approach for the design of high-performance SIBs.

To study the influences of 3-amino-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (NH 2 -POSS) on the properties of waterborne polyurethanes (WPU), a series of NH 2 -POSS modified WPUs were synthesized by using polypropylene glycol (PPG-2000, PPG-310), 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA), isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), and NH 2 -POSS via a one-pot reaction and a high shear emulsification method. The results showed that when the NH 2 -POSS amount in the WPU/NH 2 -POSS nanoemulsion was 5.73 wt% (WPU2, based on the weight of WPU resin), its viscosity was 2.496 MPa · s and its Zeta potential was 63.7 mV(pH = 6.1), showing lower viscosity and better dispersion stability. The particle size of WPU2 is smaller than that of WPU0, and the polydispersion index (PDI) of WPU2 was decreased from 5.520 to 3.837 indicating a higher crosslinking density. In addition, the thermal stability of WPU/NH 2 -POSS nanoemulsion was increased with the content of NH2-POSS from 0.00 to 13.19%. The water contact angle values for the WPU2 (84.5°) were higher than that of WPU0 (80.2°), showing an improvement of the hydrophobic properties. This WPU/NH2-POSS nanocomposites can be used for making coating adhesive for textile and hosting matrix for making multifunctional nanocomposites. Graphical abstract

A polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) organic conductive membrane with photoelectric activity was successfully developed via printing of oxidant (FeCl 3 ·6H 2 O) layer by layer and then chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of Poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). Four kinds of membranes were prepared by changing the number of oxidant coatings layers. The structure and photoelectric properties of four membranes were well characterized. The photocurrent density of 3.7 × 10 −4 A indicated that the four-oxidant coating layers membrane achieved the best performance in photo-electricity activity. A comprehensive study of degradation efficiency under different photoelectric conditions was carried out. Results showed that the photoelectrocatalytic removal of tetracycline hydrochloride was 1.6 and 7.9 times higher than that of photocatalysis and photolysis, respectively, under a voltage of 3 V assisted with visible light irradiation. The anti-interference and stability tests in continuous filtration process demonstrated that the dissolved organic matters (DOMs) can result in a 30% fluctuation on removal rate. The streaming potential tests of DOMs adsorption on membrane surface indicated that the more obvious the adsorption phenomenon was, the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride was weaker. The degradation intermediates were identified and pathways were proposed in this work. The photoelectrocatalysis of PEDOT modified PVDF membrane provided a new potential for water purification .

In 2 O 3 (ZnO) k superlattice ceramics are promising oxide thermoelectric materials, as superlattice interfaces are effective in scattering phonons and filtering low-energy electrons to decrease thermal conductivity and improve the figure of merit ( ZT ) value. In this work, homologous compounds were prepared by solid-state reaction method using ZnO and In 2 O 3 as raw materials. Phase purity and crystal structure were characterized by x-ray diffraction, revealing that In 2 O 3 (ZnO) k crystallizes in an R3 m space group for odd k values and P6 3 /mmc for even k values. The study of thermoelectric (TE) properties showed that as k increased, the thickness of InO(ZnO)

The development of novel phosphors with excellent luminescence properties for white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) is always a formidable task. Compared with the traditional laborious and aimless “trial and error” experiments, a mineral-inspired prototype strategy can provide an efficient and accurate method. Herein, for the first time, a novel yellow-emitting phosphor NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ was discovered using the mineral-inspired prototype strategy and cation substitution method. The phosphor was prepared via the high-temperature solid-state reaction method, and its crystal structure, luminescence properties and potential application for WLEDs were systematically investigated. The NaBaY2(PO4)3 phase was derived from the K2Mg2(SO4)3-type mineral structure and a photoluminescence study revealed that the phosphor can emit bright yellow light with a maximum at 545 nm upon excitation at 351 nm. A WLED lamp was fabricated by the use of a blend of commercial blue-emitting BaMgAl10O17:Eu2+, yellow-emitting NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ and red-emitting (Ca, Sr)AlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors with a 380 nm LED chip. The CIE, CCT, Ra and efficiency of the as-fabricated LEDs were measured to be equal to (0.366, 0.365), 4327 K, 91.2 and 40.8 lm W−1, respectively. These results suggest that NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ could be a promising candidate for n-UV WLEDs.

The rapid increase in the commercialization of electric vehicles and portable electronics has markedly raised the demand for lithium resources. Extracting lithium from brine has become a critical pathway to address future lithium production challenges. However, the lithium extraction efficiency of conventional technologies is limited by the low levels of Li + and the high Mg 2+ /Li + ratio present in brine. A method involving one-step electrolysis with a solid-state electrolyte has been introduced for the direct and efficient extraction of metallic lithium. Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 (LATP) is considered a highly promising selective membrane for large-scale lithium extraction from brine sources due to its low cost, excellent stability, and high ionic conductivity. Herein, LATP electrolytes were synthesized through the optimization of solid-state reaction conditions. The resulting LATP pellets exhibited a high relative density of 98.29 % and an impressive ionic conductivity of 3.88 × 10 −4 S cm −1 . The lithium extraction device utilizing LATP as a selective membrane achieved a remarkable current efficiency of 97.4 % and a high lithium production rate of 40.4 μg h −1 cm −2 . After lithium extraction process, the LATP pellets retained the ionic conductivity of 2.69 × 10 −4 S cm −1 and preserved the sodium super ion conductors (NASICON) crystal structure. This study presents an efficient Li + selective membrane for extracting lithium directly from natural brine.

3-Hydroxy-2-butanone (3H2B) is a key gaseous metabolite of Listeria monocytogenes, a potential lung cancer biomarker, and a widely used food flavoring agent, underscoring the demand for real-time monitoring solutions. In this study, we designed a salicylaldehyde-functionalized 1,8-naphthalimide derivative (NI-OH-CHO) and reacted it with 1,3,5-tri(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB) at a liquid/liquid interface to synthesize fluorescent NI-TAPB nanofilms. Upon deprotonation, the nanofilms (NI-TAPB@F) exhibit a reversible and unprecedented fluorescence response to 3H2B. Leveraging this discovery, we developed a fluorescent 3H2B sensor with exceptional performance: ultrahigh sensitivity (detection limit: ∼ 1.8 ppb), rapid response (<8 s), outstanding selectivity, and remarkable stability at room temperature. These advantages stem from the rational design of binding sites and the porous structure of the nanofilms. Furthermore, visual 3H2B detection was achieved using the deprotonated films. Notably, the nanofilms are self-standing, self-adhesive, and flexible, enabling substrate-independent detection by eliminating interference from background color or emission. These properties also facilitate on-site qualitative and quantitative analysis. We anticipate this work will pave the way for the development of portable 3H2B detection devices.

Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease characterized by chronic inflammation. Indole-3-aldehyde (3-IAld) is a tryptophan metabolite secreted by intestinal flora, which can exert anti-inflammatory effects in multiple inflammatory diseases. However, the potential therapeutic role of 3-IAld in OA and the underlying mechanism remain to be explored. Methods IL-1β was utilized to induce chondrocytes inflammation. Then, cell counting kit-8 was carried out to assess the cytotoxicity of 3-IAld on rat chondrocytes viability. Meanwhile, RT-qPCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence were performed to evaluate the expression of inflammatory factors, matrix-degrading enzymes and matrix synthesis protein, and the NF-κB pathway in chondrocytes treated with IL-1β alone, with 3-IAld or with siRNA-AhR. Results Our results showed that 3-IAld did not affect cellular viability at concentrations up to 50 μM. 3-IAld significantly inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, iNOS and COX-2), and matrix-degrading enzymes (MMP3, MMP13 and ADAMTS5), upregulated the expression of matrix synthesis protein (aggrecan and collagen-II), and inactivated the NF-κB pathway in IL-1β-treated chondrocytes. However, AhR knockdown could totally abolish the aforementioned therapeutic capabilities and the inactivation of the NF-κB pathway induced by 3-IAld. Conclusions 3-IAld reduced inflammation through the AhR-NF-κB signalling pathway in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes, which is expected to provide a new therapeutic strategy for OA.

Background: Carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), a specific breast cancer-related biomarker in serum, can provide direct information to monitor a patient's postoperative status and can predict recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer. The conventional Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
(ELISA) is an effective approach for CA15-3 detection, but there is a high limit of detection which is more than 1 U mL-1. Therefore, a convenient, highly sensitive and specific CA15-3 detection method is needed for earlier prognoses of breast cancer. Objective: In this work, we aim to
develop a novel sensitive and selective immunofluorescence assay for the highly effective detection of CA15-3. Method: We pre-coat the antibody I onto the solid phase to capture antigen CA15-3. The A10254- labeled antibody II identified by electrophoresis and fluorescence spectra recognized
the antigen CA15-3 and formed the sandwich format. The fluorescence signal of A10254 directly relating to the amount of antigen could be detected and quantified by the microplate reader excited at 440nm. Results: The obtained method for CA15-3 detection showed lower limits of detection
(0.11 and 0.18 U mL-1) in a linear range of 0.25-14 U mL-1 in the buffer and 2% serum, respectively. This assay exhibited a good specificity and reproducibility in 2% serum with lower relative standard deviations in different tested concentrations. Conclusion: The developed immunofluorescence
assay enhanced the performance of the conventional CA15-3 ELISA kit. Moreover, the acceptable accuracy and good reproducibility in diluted serum indicated the assay has great potential for the diagnosis of breast cancer in clinical practice.

Pyroptosis is a newly discovered form of cell death. Peroxiredoxin 3 (PRX3) plays a crucial role in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), but its hepatoprotective capacity in acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver disease remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the role of PRX3 in the regulation of pyroptosis during APAP-mediated hepatotoxicity. We demonstrated that pyroptosis occurs in APAP-induced liver injury accompanied by intense oxidative stress and inflammation, and liver specific PRX3 silencing aggravated the initiation of pyroptosis and liver injury after APAP intervention. Notably, excessive mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) was observed to trigger pyroptosis by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome, which was ameliorated by Mito-TEMPO treatment, indicating that the anti-pyroptotic role of PRX3 relies on its powerful ability to regulate mtROS. Overall, PRX3 regulates NLRP3-dependent pyroptosis in APAP-induced liver injury by targeting mitochondrial oxidative stress.

A novel oxalate-based piezoelectric crystal, NaBaAl(C2O4)3·5H2O, was successfully synthesized and structurally characterized. The compound crystallizes in the polar space group Pca21, forming a robust three-dimensional framework constructed from [Al(C2O4)3]3– units stabilized by Na+, Ba2+, and coordinated water molecules. Optical diffuse reflectance spectroscopy combined with Tauc’s analysis indicates a direct bandgap of 4.53 eV, while polarized light microscopy measurements yield an experimental moderate birefringence of 0.044, confirming significant optical anisotropy. More notably, piezoelectric measurements reveal a relatively large coefficient of 67.9 pC/N at room temperature, representing an order-of-magnitude enhancement compared with previously reported Al-based piezoelectric crystals. Furthermore, variable-temperature measurements demonstrate the evolution of the piezoelectric response with heating. In addition, PFM measurements confirm polarization switching under applied bias, supporting the piezoelectric assignment. Collectively, these results expand the family of Al-based piezoelectrics and highlight the potential of ligand-engineered frameworks as a viable strategy for developing high-performance piezoelectric materials.
