Catalysts with high oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performances are crucial to the development of lithium-oxygen batteries (LOBs), which aim to promote Li2O2 deposition and decomposition and then avoid the active site passivation. Considering the metallic Ag possessing good electrical conductivity and excellent catalytic activity and perovskite oxides exhibiting high abundance, an easily tunable structure, and excellent intrinsically catalytic activity, we adopt the ultraviolet light to realize the deposition of Ag nanoparticles on the La0.6Sr0.4Fe0.9Mn0.1O3 (LSFM) substrate as a high-performance cathode for LOBs. The results confirm that the synergetic effect of Ag nanoparticle decoration and the La0.6Sr0.4Fe0.9Mn0.1O3 substrate could dramatically improve the electronic conductivity and ORR/OER kinetics of the nanohybrids. Ag@LSFM hybrids with abundant active sites and considerable electronic conductivity promote the deposition of a thinner discharge product film, and the corresponding LOBs deliver high discharge capacity (12 477 mAh g–1), a small gap between charge and discharge potentials (∼1.3 V), and high cycling stability (147 cycles). Overall, the study suggests that such a bifunctional catalyst is a promising candidate in LOBs.

The fabrication of qualified catalysts is a key issue to implement gas-phase aerobic alcohol oxidation but necessarily requires understanding the structures of catalytic active sites and the supply of active oxygen species. Herein, we present one example of the Ag–CoO/Ti- powder catalyst for gas-phase benzyl alcohol aerobic oxidation. The first interesting observation is that the Ag–Co3O4 ensembles on the fresh catalyst could be transformed into Ag–CoO due to the presence of reductive benzyl alcohol. The preferred catalyst with 3 wt% Ag and 3 wt% CoO exhibits 93% benzyl alcohol conversion and 99% benzaldehyde selectivity at a weight hourly space velocity of 20 h−1 and a temperature of 240 °C. The structures of Ag–CoO ensembles and oxygen species supply were probed and identified by electron microscopy and other spectroscopy techniques in combination with temperature-programmed thermal analyses, pulse experiments, and kinetic studies. In nature, the oxygen species is generated at the Ag–CoO interfacial sites in the form of atomic oxygen with appropriate chemisorption strength on these sites to achieve a high oxidation activity of benzyl alcohol. Moreover, the Co3O4 ↔ CoO cycle is promoted by Ag at low temperature such as 240 °C to endow the Ag–CoO ensembles with excellent catalytic performance.

O 2 (M=Zr, Ce) was prepared by urea gelation/co-precipitation method, and characterized by N 2 adsorption, XRD and UV-vis spectra. UV irradiation greatly enhanced the adsorptive capacity and selectivity of TiO 2 -ZrO 2 for organosulfur in model oil because organosulfur compounds were first photocatalytically oxidized to sulfoxides and sulfones over TiO 2 -ZrO 2 , which were then selectively adsorbed on the bifunctional material due to much higher polarities of generated sulfoxides and sulfones. The Ti/Zr molar ratio and calcination temperature were optimized to 5 : 5 and 500 °C with the sulfur removal of 99.6% after reaction for 2 h under UV irradiation. After adding 25 wt% toluene into model oil, the sulfur removal could still reach 97.2% after reaction for 7 h. TiO 2 -ZrO 2 could be well regenrated by washing with acetonitrile followed by thermal treatment in air.

Introducing electron-rich nitrogen atoms to ordered mesoporous carbons (OMC) as supports for noble metal catalysts, not only improves the hydrophilic properties of a mesoporous carbon surface, but also enhances the coordination and binding abilities of metal ion. In the present work, nitrogen-doped ordered mesoporous carbons (NOMCs) were successfully fabricated via a facile hydrothermal self-assembly. The prepared NOMCs were characterized through powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm. The analyses demonstrated that the NOMCs prepared at a pyrolysis temperature of 750°C possessed an ordered 2D hexagonal mesoporous structure, a high graphitization degree, large surface area, and a well-distributed pore size. In particular, NOMCs could anchor Pd nanoparticles uniformly because of the introducing N atoms with strong electronegativity, which were selected as efficient catalysts for the partial oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. Approximately 24.63% conversion with 85.71% selectivity to benzaldehyde was obtained without using any solvent by molecular O2 oxidation. Most importantly, the TOF value of the catalyst in the reaction system was up to 8698 h−1. After five runs reaction, TOF and selectivity of the catalyst remained essentially same. Hence, the proposed catalyst has a potential engineering application value.

High-voltage and low-cost manganese-based P 2-type oxides show real promise as promising cathode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). But the P 2 − O2 phase transformation and Na + /vacancy ordering results in the inferior structural stability and Na + diffusion coefficient , which further leads to rapid decay of capacity and poor rate capability. Herein, in consideration of the synergetic effects of dual cationic doping, electrochemically inactive Li + and active Co 3+ codoping are proposed to solve the above issues. The novel two-step doping strategy, Co doping during synthesis of precursors via coprecipitation reaction followed by Li doping during solid-state reaction, are rationally developed. As anticipated, the Li/Co codoped P 2-type oxide exhibits the absence of P 2 − O2 phase transformation and Na + /vacancy disordering, which gives rise to an outstanding cycling stability (86.7% capacity retention within 100 cycles at 0.1C) and high-rate capability (reversible capacity of 109 mAh g −1 even at 10C). In addition, the full-cells composed of the codoped P 2-type positive and hard carbon negative show high energy-density, good lifespan and high-rate property. This proposed cationic codoping provides an effective and scalable tactics for modulating the structural properties of high-voltage P 2-type cathodes for advanced SIBs.

An effective method capable of simultaneously providing antibacterial activity, blood glucose regulation, and angiogenesis promotion for healing bacteria-infected diabetic wounds is not reported to date, but urgently required. In this study, a hydrogel composite ( γ -PGA/PDA/GOx/WO x (PPGW)), endowed with these desired attributes is fabricated by incorporating polydopamine (PDA), glucose oxidase (GOx), and tungsten oxide (WO x ) nanowires into the poly( γ -glutamic acid) ( γ -PGA) framework. The exceptional photothermal conversion properties of PDA facilitated notable antibacterial effects on bacteria-infected diabetic wounds; GOx regulated high blood glucose by consuming glucose and generating hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ); while WO x nanowires displayed remarkable photocatalytic abilities, converting H 2 O 2 into oxygen (O 2 ) when exposed to 808-nm near-infrared radiation. Density functional theory calculations and experiments are conducted to confirm the mechanism of WO x -mediated photocatalytic degradation of H 2 O 2 to produce O 2 . These transformations aided in alleviating the hypoxic conditions in wounds associated with diabetes, expediting angiogenesis, and fostering cell crawling and proliferation. Consequently, the multifunctional hydrogel dressing PPGW, featuring photothermal, antibacterial, and enzyme-catalyzed activity reduces hyperglycemia at the wound site. Moreover, photocatalytic O 2 production represents a promising strategy for addressing chronic bacteria-infected diabetic wounds.

In this study, we prepared a micron zero-valent iron/ N -doped graphene-like biochar (mZVI/NGB) composite using a mechanochemical method for tetracycline (TC) degradation through O 2 activation. The mZVI and NGB components formed a strong coupling catalytic system, with mZVI acting as an electron pool and NGB as a catalyst for H 2 O 2 generation. Under circumneutral pH (5.0–6.8), the mZVI/NGB composite exhibited exceptional TC removal efficiency, reaching nearly 100 % under optimal conditions. It also showed good tolerance to co-existing anions, such as Cl - , SO 4 2- , and humic acid. Further studies found that the TC degradation mechanism was mainly ascribed to the non-radical pathway ( 1 O 2 and electron transfer), and the Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ redox cycle on the composite's surface also played a crucial role in maintaining catalytic activity. This research contributes to the development of advanced materials for sustainable and effective water treatment, addressing pharmaceutical pollutant contamination in water sources.

Hypoxia can aggravate tumor occurrence, development, invasion, and metastasis, and greatly inhibit the photodynamic therapy (PDT) effect. Herein, carbon nitride (CNs)-based DNA and photosensitizer co-delivery systems (BPSCNs) with oxygen-producing functions are developed to address this problem. Selenide glucose (Seglu) is used as the dopant to prepare red/NIR-active CNs (SegluCNs). The tumor-targeting unit Bio-PEG 2000 is utilized to construct BPSCNs nanoparticles through esterification reactions. Furthermore, DNA hydrophobization is realized via mixing P53 gene with a positively charged mitochondrial-targeted near-infrared (NIR) emitting photosensitizer (MTTPY), which is encapsulated in non-cationic BPSCNs for synergistic delivery. Ester bonds in BPSCNs@MTTPY-P53 complexes can be disrupted by lipase in the liver to facilitate P53 release, upregulated P53 expression, and promoted HIF-1α degradation in mitochondria. In addition, the oxygen produced by the complexes improved the hypoxic microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), synergistically downregulated HIF-1α expression in mitochondria, promoted mitochondrial-derived ferroptosis and enhanced the PDT effect of the MTTPY unit. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments indicated that the transfected P53-DNA, produced O 2 and ROS by these complexes synergistically led to mitochondrial-derived ferroptosis in hepatoma cells through the HIF-1α/SLC7A11 pathway, and completely avoiding PDT resistance caused by hypoxia, exerting a significant therapeutic role in HCC treatment.

It is still challenging to design stimuli-responsive smart hydrogel dressing to promote bacteria-infected diabetic wound healing from the whole healing stage by intelligently responding to external stimuli or wound microenvironment. In addition, nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen (O 2 ) have been shown to accelerate diabetic wound healing by promoting angiogenesis and alleviating hypoxia. A series of NIR/glucose stimuli-responsive multifunctional smart hydrogels with NO/O 2 dual gas-releasing properties was designed based on N-carboxyethyl chitosan-grafted-phenylboronic acid (CECP), oxidized dextran (OD), ε-polylysine (EPL)-coated manganese dioxide (EMn), and β-cyclodextrin-reduced graphene oxide/N, N’-di-sec-butyl-N, N’-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (rGB) via dual dynamic crosslinking to promote bacteria-infected diabetic wound healing. The added rGB and EMn as photothermal agents rapidly kill bacteria through photothermal therapy. Meanwhile, rGB endows CECP/OD/EMn/rGB hydrogels to release NO under NIR stimulation to promote angiogenesis. Nanozyme EMn with catalase (CAT)/superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity can scavenge ROS and release O 2 to alleviate hypoxia and oxidative stress. The phenylboronic acid in CECP forming phenylboronate ester structure endows hydrogel with glucose-controlled release of doxycycline. NIR/glucose stimuli-responsive CECP/OD/EMn/rGB hydrogels with NO/O 2 dual gas-releasing property in a full-thickness skin wound-infected diabetic model reduced the inflammation, promoted wound contraction, collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and alleviated wound hypoxia, providing new ideas for treating bacteria-infected diabetic wounds.

Develop Pd-based catalysts for propylene epoxidation with H 2 and O 2. • Sn species in PdSn/Ti-MWW increase the electron density of Pd. • Increased electron density of Pd enhances the H 2 utilization. • Sn significantly promotes the catalytic propylene epoxidation. The low-temperature epoxidation of propylene with H 2 and O 2 to propylene oxide (PO), commonly referred to as the low-temperature HOPO process, over titanosilicate zeolite-supported Pd catalysts is economically attractive and environmentally friendly. However, PO selectivity remains a major challenge for these systems and is comparatively low, because this process is commonly accompanied with propylene hydrogenation to propane. In the present study, a novel and efficient Ti-MWW-supported PdSn catalyst (PdSn/Ti-MWW) was developed for this low-temperature HOPO process, displaying a substantially high PO selectivity. The results on extensive characterizations, in combination with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, for PdSn/Ti-MWW and Pd/Ti-MWW verify that the introduction of Sn species into Pd/Ti-MWW can boost the electron density of Pd species while does not affect the coordination states of Ti species and the textural properties of the zeolite. Interestingly, the enhanced Pd electron density will weaken the adsorption of propylene on the Pd active sites, resulting in inhibiting propylene hydrogenation, which is beneficial for the selective production of PO. Catalytic tests reveal that the optimal 0.33Pd0.22Sn/Ti-MWW catalyst achieves a PO selectivity of 68.4 % and a maximum PO productivity of 7.5 mol g Pd -1 h −1 , far exceeding monometallic Pd/Ti-MWW, while the undesired propane selectivity drops sharply. Moreover, PdSn/Ti-MWW shows an excellent stability and reusability as key catalytic traits. Thus, this work establishes an effective electronic modulation strategy for designing high-performance bimetallic Pd catalysts, and lays solid experimental and theoretical foundations for the industrial application of sustainable low-temperature HOPO technology.

The high-temperature proton ceramic membranes with simultaneous separation of hydrogen and oxygen exhibit promising applications in the catalytic conversion field. However, their separation performance often relies on external electrical circuits, which limits practical application. To overcome this limitation, doping strategies have emerged as a viable approach to develop triple-conducting (H+/e−/O2−) membranes for simultaneous hydrogen and oxygen separation in non-electrochemical mode. In this study, honeycomb-structured hollow fiber membranes were fabricated, and the effects of varying Fe3+and Y3+doping concentrations on hydrogen and oxygen permeation fluxes were systematically investigated. At the Fe3+doping level of 0.2 mol, the oxygen permeation flux of 0.692 mL min−1cm−2in BaCe0.6Zr0.2Fe0.2O3−δ(BCZF) was achieved at 1000 °C, while the hydrogen permeation flux was 0.201 mL min−1cm−2. The BaCe0.55Fe0.05Zr0.2Y0.2O3−δ(Fe-BCZY) hollow fiber membrane can enhance the hydrogen permeation flux by 75% at 1000 °C. Furthermore, during the simultaneous permeation of hydrogen and oxygen, a 1.7-fold enhancement in hydrogen permeation performance was achieved for the Fe-BZCY hollow fiber membrane at 1000 °C, and with oxygen permeation flux of 1.76 mL min−1cm−2at the same temperature. More significantly, a hydrogen permeation flux of 0.34 mL min−1cm−2can be achieved at 700 °C under simultaneous hydrogen and oxygen permeation, which is favorable for the application of membrane reactors in catalytic reactions.

The electrocatalytic reduction of O2via two-electron reaction (2e-ORR) to H2O2represents a promising alternative to the current anthraquinone process, since it is advantageous in the sustainable and decentralized production of H2O2. Herein, we report the development of oxygen and nitrogen-rich few-layered graphene-like materials (ms-dcda) by the one-step carbonization of biomass-sourced monosaccharides (D-glucose, D-fructose, D-galactose, D-ribose, D-xylose, L-arabinose, and D-mannose) with the aid of dicyandiamide for electrochemical O2reduction to H2O2. The ms-dcdamaterials were porous and possessed wrinkled morphology typical of graphene nanosheets. In H2O2production via 2e-ORR in an acidic electrolyte, these ms-dcdamaterials were all active and stable catalysts, among which glu-dcdaderived from D-glucose and dicyandiamide displayed the lowest onset potential of 0.553 V and the highest selectivity of up to 91.6%. The catalyst was also highly stable in chronoamperometric tests. Selective chemical titration of the C–OH and C=O groups revealed that the latter is far more active and selective than the former in 2e-ORR. Moreover, a positive correlation between the contents of C=O and pyrrolic N and the H2O2partial current suggests that the pyrrolic N group also contributes to 2e-ORR. This work affords a facile strategy for the sustainable fabrication of metal-free carbon-based catalysts efficient for H2O2electrosynthesis.
