Li–O 2 battery has attracted wide attention because it can satisfy the need for a new energy storage system with high energy density. However, poor oxygen reduction (ORR)/oxygen evolution (OER) kinetics involving Li 2 O 2 formation/decomposition is a major obstacle to its development. By designing suitable cathode with desired structure and surface electronic states, the formation/morphology of Li 2 O 2 and the reaction kinetics of charge process can be efficiently optimized simultaneously. In this work, a novel sulfur (S) and chlorine (Cl) co-doped porous carbon (CSC) were synthesized by one-step pyrolysis strategy, and the amount of heterogeneous atoms could be flexibly controlled by different calcination temperatures . Experimental combined with theoretical calculations show that the content of C Cl bond plays an important role in the adsorption of intermediate LiO 2 , thus regulating the morphology of Li 2 O 2 and ultimately affecting the release of battery energy. The C S bond mainly acts on the dynamics of the ORR and OER processes, which has an important influence on improving the round-trip efficiency of the battery. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of heteroatoms , the electrochemical performances of the Li–O 2 battery, including round-trip efficiency, discharge capacity and cycling stability are greatly improved.

Nanozyme-based tumor collaborative catalytic therapy has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years. However, their cooperative outcome remains a great challenge due to the unique characteristics of tumor microenvironment (TME), such as insufficient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) level, hypoxia, and overexpressed intracellular glutathione (GSH). Methods: Herein, a TME-activated atomic-level engineered PtN 4 C single-atom nanozyme (PtN 4 C-SAzyme) is fabricated to induce the “butterfly effect” of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through facilitating intracellular H 2 O 2 cycle accumulation and GSH deprivation as well as X-ray deposition for ROS-involving CDT and O 2 -dependent chemoradiotherapy. Results: In the paradigm, the SAzyme could boost substantial ∙OH generation by their admirable peroxidase-like activity as well as X-ray deposition capacity. Simultaneously, O 2 self-sufficiency, GSH elimination and elevated Pt 2+ release can be achieved through the self-cyclic valence alteration of Pt (IV) and Pt (II) for alleviating tumor hypoxia, overwhelming the anti-oxidation defense effect and overcoming drug-resistance. More importantly, the PtN 4 C-SAzyme could also convert O 2 ·- into H 2 O 2 by their superior superoxide dismutase-like activity and achieve the sustainable replenishment of endogenous H 2 O 2 , and H 2 O 2 can further react with the PtN 4 C-SAzyme for realizing the cyclic accumulation of ∙OH and O 2 at tumor site, thereby generating a “key” to unlock the multi enzymes-like properties of SAzymes for tumor-specific self-reinforcing CDT and chemoradiotherapy. Conclusions: This work not only provides a promising TME-activated SAzyme-based paradigm with H 2 O 2 self-supplement and O 2 -evolving capacity for intensive CDT and chemoradiotherapy but also opens new horizons for the construction and tumor catalytic therapy of other SAzymes.

The corrosion inhibition of carbon steel in CO 2 -O 2 -containing environment is one of the biggest challenges in flue gas injection for enhanced oil recovery. Herein we report the possibility to use Bis(2-ehylhexyl) phosphate (BEP) to inhibit the corrosion in CO 2 -O 2 -containing solution and simultaneously the inhibition mechanisms are unmasked. The results show that the corrosion is greatly inhibited with 500 ppm BEP in 1 wt% NaCl solution with 0.02 MPa CO 2 and 3 mg/L O 2 . BEP could interact with Fe and corrosion products via the formation of P-O-Fe bond and P-Fe bond to generate a barrier layer, thus, offering a protective performance.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) derivatives had been widely explored in electronic and environmental fields, but rarely evaluated in the biomedical applications. Herein, Fe–N codoped carbon (FeNC) nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized via facile pyrolysis of precursor ZIF-8 (Fe/Zn) nanoparticles, and their potential applications in tumor therapy were assessed in this investigation both in vitro and in vivo. After PAA (sodium polyacrylate) modification, the FeNC@PAA nanoparticles were able to initiate a Fe-based Fenton-like reaction to generate ·OH and O2 for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and O2 evolution. Meanwhile, the porphyrin-like metal center in the FeNC@PAA nanoparticles could be used as a photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of tumors, which could be enhanced by O2 generated in CDT. Furthermore, the FeNC@PAA nanoparticles were also found to be effective in photothermal therapy (PTT) with a photothermal conversion efficiency of 29.15%, owing to a high absorbance in the near-infrared region (NIR). In conclusion, the synthesized FeNC@PAA nanoparticles exhibited promising applications in O2 evolution and CDT/PDT/PTT synergistic treatment of tumors.

Although dual redox mediators (RMs) largely promote the discharge capacity and decreases the charge overpotential in Li-O 2 batteries , the shuttle effect leads to a RM degradation and a serious deterioration of Li metal, which results in a poor sustainability. Here, a poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly (styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) -decorated separator has been firstly introduced into a dual mixture RMs-involved Li-O 2 system, which restrains the shuttle effect via coulombic interactions. Benefiting from the advantages of as-prepared separator, a cell exhibits an enhanced cycling stability and a good reversibility associated with the Li 2 O 2 formation and decomposition during cell cycling. These results represent a promising progress in the development of an easy-to-operate modified separator for a highly efficient Li-O 2 battery.

Magnetic mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) show great potential for enhancing O 2 /N 2 separation efficiency by leveraging the inherent magnetic property differences between O 2 (paramagnetic) and N 2 (diamagnetic). However, one of the major challenges is the establishment and precise control of magnetic channels between magnetic fillers and polymer matrix. To address this issue, herein, ZIF-8 wrapped Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8) were synthesized using a step-by-step assembly method, and then integrated into polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) matrix to develop MMMs with well-defined magnetic channels for O 2 /N 2 separation. In comparison with Fe 3 O 4 , Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8 nanoparticles exhibited significantly enhanced compatibility with the polymer matrix, thereby facilitating uniform dispersion and improving interfacial adhesion. Gas permeation experiments revealed that the magnetic PIM-1/Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8 MMMs demonstrated enhanced O 2 /N 2 separation performance due to the combined effects of magnetic responsiveness and the presence of ZIF-8 magnetic channels. Under a magnetic field strength of 56mT, the magnetic MMM with a 4 wt% loading of Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8 exhibited optimal O 2 /N 2 separation performance with O 2 permeability of 710 Barrer and O 2 /N 2 selectivity of 3.64. These values represented a significant improvement of 42% and 24%, respectively, compared to pure PIM-1 membrane. Moreover, the simultaneous improvement of permeability and selectivity enabled the achievement of Robeson’s 2008 upper bound for O 2 /N 2 separation, underscoring the great potential of Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8 nanoparticles for designing magnetic MMMs with favorable structural attributes and exceptional separation efficiency.

A novel Pd-based electro-Fenton process has recently been developed to degrade organic contaminants in wastewaters and groundwater. However, the high cost of Pd catalyst limits the application of this process. In this study, Cu supported on bamboo charcoal (Cu/C) was synthesized to evaluate the feasibility of substituting Pd catalysts. Using phenol as a probe organic contaminant, the performance of Cu/C catalyst was evaluated for the electro-Fenton degradation of phenol in a typical undivided electrolytic system. The electrochemical degradation of phenol in the presence of Cu/C was significant, following a pseudo-first-order kinetics with rate constant ( k 1 ) of 0.008 min −1 . The addition of Fe 2+ remarkably enhanced the degradation ( k 1 = 0.012 min −1 ). H 2 O 2 and OH were validated as the reactive oxidizing species (ROSs), and OH was the main ROS contributing to phenol degradation. The as-synthesized Cu/C consisting of Cu, CuO and Cu 2 O could catalyze the production of H 2 O 2 from chemisorbed H 2 and O 2 as well as the decomposition of H 2 O 2 to OH. Particularly, the addition of Fe 2+ facilitated the transformation of H 2 O 2 to OH. Phenol degradation increased with increasing the current from 5 to 50 mA and decreased with the further increase to 100 mA. The degradation improved with the increase in Cu loadings and the decrease in solution pH. The presence of NaNO 3 , Na 2 SO 3 or Na 2 S inhibited the degradation, while the presence of NaCl increased the degradation. Although the activity of Cu/C is much lower than that of Pd/C for phenol degradation, the cost of Cu/C is much lower.

Electrocatalysts with appropriate electron coupling toward LiO 2 intermediates can exhibit superior oxygen reduction/evolution reaction kinetics in Li-O 2 batteries (LOBs). In this work, a charge redistribution strategy has been developed by constructing NiS/MoS 2 heterostructure nanosheet self-assembled hollow microspheres with an internal electric field to regulate the interaction with LiO 2 and then improve the electrochemical performance of LOBs. Density functional theory calculations and physicochemical characterizations reveal that the difference of work functions between NiS and MoS 2 promotes the electron redistribution in heterointerface via built-in electrical field, leading to increased electron density of interfacial Ni atom, thereby enhancing its electron coupling toward LiO 2 intermediates and promoting one-electron oxygen reduction/oxidation reaction kinetics. As a result, the NiS/MoS 2 -based LOBs exhibit evidently higher discharge capacity and much better cycling performance than the batteries using NiS and MoS 2 . This work provides a reliable charge redistribution strategy induced by build-in electric field to design efficient catalysts for LOBs.

Edible bioplastics offer a possible approach with great potential to address the challenges of plastic and microplastic crisis and the issue of food waste. In the present study, in situ, induction of fibrillation of legume proteins within chitosan matrix is found to form edible bioplastic films with a high CO 2 /O 2 selectivity coefficient of ≈130. Desirable mechanical properties, including a high elongation at break of ≈230%, are realized to fabricate shopping bags, which can be filled with 5 kg of fruits. An atmosphere with a high CO 2 content and low O 2 concentration is spontaneously achieved after strawberries are packaged with the films and ≈85% of the fruits are edible after 9 days. The contents of CO 2 in the equilibrium state and the percent of edible fruits are positively correlated with the CO 2 /O 2 selectivity of the films. By comparison of the edible bioplastic films made from mung bean protein (MP) and pea protein (PP), the fibrillation capability of legume proteins and the heterogeneity in polydisperse diameters of the protein fibrils and chitosan are demonstrated to make great contributions to the dense microstructure, leading to the strong mechanical properties and high gas selectivity of the films. The structure-property relationship is elucidated for high-performance bioplastics films.

Selective catalytic reduction of NO x by CO (CO-SCR) in the presence of O 2 is challenging because in this process CO is prone to being oxidized by O 2 , thus inhibiting NO x reduction by CO. Furthermore, SO 2 typically leads to the deactivation of the CO-SCR catalyst. Herein, a significant promoting effect of SO 2 on Ir/SiO 2 catalyst for the CO-SCR of NO x in the presence of O 2 is reported. In-situ X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that SO 2 does not affect the chemical nature of Ir 0 under reaction conditions. However, SO 2 can be oxidized to sulfate and deposit on the catalyst surface. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis demonstrated that the presence of SO 2 can inhibit the CO + O 2 reaction, thus leaving more CO available to reduce NO x over the active Ir 0 sites. As a result, the reduction of NO x is remarkably promoted even in the presence of O 2 and SO 2 .

High-entropy fluorite oxide ceramics are promising candidates for spacecraft applications due to their excellent high-temperature thermal-mechanical properties. In this work, four kinds of high-entropy fluorite oxide ceramics ((ZrHfCeYEr) (1-x)/5 Ti x )O 2-δ (HEFOs, x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075) with different Ti 4+ contents were successfully synthesized through solid-state reaction method with conventional sintering. They all exhibited phase stability when annealed at 1500 ℃ for 20 h. When the content of Ti 4+ was increased to x = 0.075, the thermal conductivity reduced to1.34 W·m −1 ·K −1 at 1100 ℃, and the hardness and elastic modulus increased to 14.01 GPa and 205.70 GPa, respectively. Furthermore, the cyclic thermal shock resistance of HEFOs at different temperatures was investigated. The initial flexural strength reached 219.03 MPa when the content of Ti 4+ was increased to x = 0.075. After 60 thermal shock cycles at 1200 ℃ and 1500 ℃, the residual strength ratios were 97.56 % and 83.36 %, respectively. The results of this study establish the foundation for future applications of high-entropy fluorite oxide ceramics in spacecraft hot-end components.

The high concentration of heavy metals in solid wastes may cause serious pollution during thermal treatment. We have investigated, theoretically and experimentally, the effects of several important flue gas species and mineral sorbents on the partitioning behaviour of four major heavy metals (cadmium, lead, zinc and copper) which are often present in municipal solid waste (MSW). Their concentrations in bottom ash, fly ash and flue gas were quantified when model MSW samples were treated thermally under different conditions. The evaporation ratio of the four metals, excluding Cu, increased with decreasing oxygen concentration. The presence of HCl promotes heavy metal evaporation by preventing the formation of stable metallic species, especially for Zn (evaporation of more than 20%). An increase in oxygen concentration has a negative influence on the effect of HCl. In the presence of SO2, Cd and Pb exhibited a higher evaporation ratio, while Zn and Cu were insensitive to the change. SO2 also inhibits Cd vaporization in an oxidative atmosphere. The effect of NH3 on reducing the metal volatilization rate was established indirectly. Calcium oxide addition enhances metal evaporation except for that of Zn (which shows a decrease of 38%). Although desulphurization by calcium injection decreases the volume of acid gas, calcium affects heavy metal pollution control adversely. The presence or addition of SiO2- or Al2O3-containing minerals can lead to the formation of stable metallic salts. This may favour the control of Cd, Pb, Zn and Cu volatilization up to 13%, 50%, 17.5% and 19%, respectively.
