Graphite-like carbon nitride nanosheets/3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic acid hybrids (g-C3N4 NSs–PTCA) were synthesized via π–π conjugate action. Based on novel dual molecular specific recognition of oxyethyl groups to diol and carboxyl to amine groups, a signal-on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for dopamine (DA) was constructed utilizing g-C3N4 NSs–PTCA as asignal probe and K2S2O8 as a coreactant. Under the optimal conditions, the prepared ECL sensor presented a response to DA with a linear range from 6.0 pM to 30.0 nM. The detection limit (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of the sensor were 2.4 pM and 7.9 pM, respectively. The g-C3N4 NSs–PTCA signal probe coupling with a novel dual molecular recognition strategy would provide a promising ECL sensing platform for detecting DA sensitively and selectively.

We are just beginning to exploit the fascinating potential of thionine , called electrochemical probe that can selectively recognize specific polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as tools for the detection of tricyclic aromatic hydrocarbons phenanthrene (PHE) and anthracene (ANT). A novel electrochemical sensing platform by modification of electroactive thionine functionalized graphene onto glass carbon electrode (Th/GRs/GCE) surface was constructed. The immobilized thionine showed a remarkable stability, which may benefit from the π–π stacking force with graphene. Under optimum conditions, the proposed electrochemical sensor exhibited high sensitivity and low detection limit for detecting PHE and ANT. The total amount of PHE and ANT could be quantified in a wide range of 10 pM–0.1 μM with a good linearity ( R 2 = 0.9979) and a low detection limit of 0.1 pM ( S / N = 3). Compounds which possess one or two benzene rings or PAHs with more than three rings, such as benzene, naphthalene (NAP), benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and pyrene (PYR) show little interference on the detection. Consequently, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was proposed for the determination of PHE and ANT, which was used to determine PHE and ANT in waste water samples. The electrochemical method provides a general tool that complements the commonly used spectroscopic methods and immune method for the detection of PAHs.

The corrosion inhibition performances of Diantipyrylmethane (DAM) for mild steel in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 were investigated using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and quantum chemical calculation. The obtained results reveal that DAM acts as a mixed-type inhibitor with a predominantly anodic reaction, and the inhibition efficiency increases with increasing inhibitor concentration whereas decreases with increasing temperature. The adsorption of DAM on steel surface is found to obey Langmuir isotherm, and the adsorption mechanism is mixed physical and chemical adsorption. The results of quantum chemical calculation demonstrate that pyrazolone rings within molecular structure of DAM play a dominant role in corrosion inhibition of mild steel.

Sodium-rich antiperovskite (NaRAP) ionic conductors have been considered promising inorganic electrolytes for all-solid-state sodium batteries due to their low fabrication cost, high sodium ionic conductivity and good structural tolerance. The high structural flexibility of NaRAPs allows variety of chemical substitutions to improve conductivity; in particular, the substitution of the anion cluster has effectively proved promoting Na+ migration, both experimentally and theoretically. Herein, we report an unexpected boost in Na+ ionic conductivity that climbs to 0.37 mS cm−1 at 485 K by introducing NO2− groups in the antiperovskite Na3ONO2 system. Its mechanism was fully investigated by neutron powder diffraction and DFT calculations, proving that the NO2− group on the lattice center, can utilize its terminal O2− anion to facilitate the Na+ migration via the Na–O interaction, when thermally excited at 485 K. The detailed migration path is also discussed by both maximum entropy method (MEM) and DFT calculations.

We provide a method for preparation of binder-free cathode for rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs). Ultrasonicated natural graphite (u-NG) flakes in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is drop-casted to a carbon fiber cloth (CFC) to obtain binder-free u-GF@CFC cathode for AIBs. We also provide an in-situ Raman spectral technology and the corresponding in-situ Raman cell to determine the mechanism of intercalation/deintercalation reactions of the chloroaluminate ions at cathode of AIBs. The in-situ Raman spectra are recorded using a Raman spectrometer combined with a potentiostat/galvanostat model electrochemical workstation. • A simple preparation method of a binder-free u-GF@CFC cathode is suggested. • The u-GF@CFC cathode is obtained by drop-casting ultrasonicated graphite flakes on the surface and internal gaps of the carbon fiber cloth. • The method includes the in-situ Raman spectral technology and the corresponding in-situ Raman cell.

Silicon is a strong competitor for the anode of the next generation of lithium-ion batteries, and ball-milled silicon has broad prospects as a low-cost method for preparing nano silicon. In order to match ball-milled silicon, it is imperative to develop better bonding agents with lower costs. Through adding amino silane coupling agent, the performance of ball-milling silicon anode is enhanced. This study explored the network structure formed by amino silane coupling agent with different chain lengths and polyacrylic acids. Herein, the crosslinked network prepared with 3-[2-(2-aminoethyl amino) ethyl amino] propyl-trimethoxysilane as coupling agent had the best performance, and the initial discharge capacity of the silicon anode prepared by this binder reached 3297.4 mAh·g −1 at a constant current density of 0.5A·g −1 , the initial Coulomb efficiency reached 92.25%. After 100 cycles, the discharge capacity of anode was still maintained at 2229.5 mAh·g −1 with excellent charge/discharge performance.

A novel indium doped bismuth hybrid nanofilm was prepared on a glassy carbon electrode (Bi@In/GCE) and successfully used for the simultaneous measurements of aqueous zinc (Zn(II)), cadmium (Cd(II)) and lead (Pb(II)). The Bi@In hybrid nanofilm was greatly improved in the ability of electron transfer, surface morphology as well as hydrophilicity over single Bi or In film, and exhibited well-defined and separate peaks for Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) by square wave stripping voltammetry. Analytical characteristics of the developed Bi@In/GCE were explored by comparing with single Bi and In film modified electrodes with calibration curves, which exhibited the most preferable electrochemical behaviors toward three metals as predicted. The synergistic effect of Bi and In mainly contributed to the enhanced electrochemical activity of the new electrode. In the concentration range of 0-120 µg L -1 , a good linear relationship was achieved between the peak current and the metal concentration with correlation coefficient higher than 0.995. The detection limits were calculated to be 0.52, 0.15 and 0.67 µg L -1 for Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) (S/N=3), respectively. The analysis of river sample with Bi@In/GCE was performed with satisfactory recoveries higher than 98%, suggesting that the new method is promising as a simple, sensitive and efficient approach to detect the heavy metals in water samples.

This paper reports the synthesis of waterborne epoxy phosphate emulsion (WEP) through the reaction between epoxy resin E44 and phosphoric acid and ammonia neutralization. Synthesized WEP was characterized by FTIR for the confirmation of reaction between epoxy groups and phosphoric acid and SEM for morphology. WEP acted as a modifier in two-component epoxy anticorrosion coating on rusty steel substrate. The anticorrosion properties of the coating on rusty steel were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Tafel polarization curve. Tafel polarization curve revealed that waterborne epoxy coating containing WEP had better protection ability which is clearly reflected by the protection efficiency (96.6%). EIS study also showed the higher impedance value for WEP containing coating as compared to pure waterborne epoxy coating.

As a promising anode material for next-generation high-energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), one of the main technical issues for silicon (Si) electrodes is the low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE). By a pre-lithiation process, preparation of lithium–silicon (Li–Si) alloy electrodes can efficiently improve the ICE, thus leading to excellent electrochemical performance. Herein, with solid wastes as precursors, we report a cost-efficient approach for the fabrication of Li3.25Si anode materials via simple magnesiothermic reduction and then mechanical alloy reaction methods, combining the advantages of low-cost and high ICE. The prepared Li3.25Si@acetylene black (Li3.25Si@A) electrode exhibits excellent electrochemical performance with a high reversible capacity of 1138.9 mA h g−1 over 90 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g−1 and its ICE is as high as 107.7%, which is superior to that of the commercial Li3.25Si@A electrode. With a simple and low-cost manufacturing process and high ICE, the fabrication process will be definitely meaningful in achieving low-cost and high-capacity anode materials with a prolonged cycle life.

The water-soluble protein was extracted from Moringa oleifera seed press cake and tested its performance as a natural coagulant for removing humic acid (HA) from water solution when comparing to polyaluminum chloride (PAC), a commercial coagulant. Influencing factors including pH, coagulant dosage, temperature and suspended solid were investigated in this study. The results indicated that the coagulating efficiencies of HA using the Moringa oleifera seed protein (MOSP) were better than those by PAC under all the experimental conditions at the same dosage. MOSP could increase the zeta potential more efficiently than PAC. The Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that no new compounds were generated during the coagulation process. Hence, adsorption and charge neutralization could be the main mechanism contributing to the HA removal using MOSP as coagulant. MOSP is an ideal natural coagulant for HA removal.

In this work, we synthesized CuInSe 2 quantum dots (CISe QDs) and applied them to perovskite solar cells (PSCs) as an inorganic hole-transporting material (HTM). A power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 12.8% was achieved for the PSCs using CISe QDs as the HTM, which is the highest value reported to date for devices with a Cu-based chalcopyrite semiconductor as HTM. More importantly, the stability of PSCs with CISe QDs was significantly improved compared with that of the devices using spiro-OMeTAD as the HTM. These results demonstrate that CISe QDs are a promising inorganic HTM for PSCs with long-term stability and low cost.

To address the large structural and volume changes of commercial WO 3 during charge/discharge, which make this material unsuitable for use in Li-ion batteries (LIBs), we herein prepared oxygen deficient WO 3- x nanosheets on a large scale by thermal treatment of ammonium paratungstate in a reducing atmosphere followed by sonication and freeze-drying. The above nanosheets were employed as LIB anode materials and exhibited a specific capacity and cycling stability significantly exceeding those of oxygen-deficient WO 3- x nanoparticles and commercial WO 3 . In addition, we investigated the effect of nanosheet loading on electrode performance, demonstrating that the best results (Li storage capacity of ∼628 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA g −1 ) were obtained at a nanosheet content of 20 wt%. This excellent performance was ascribe to the good exposure of defects caused by the comparatively small size of WO 3- x nanosheets , which resulted in an increased number of sites and diffusion paths available for Li-ion storage and transfer. The novel electrode-optimized strategy may be extended to the fabrication of other electrodes that use nanomaterials as active substances due to its superior comprehensive performance and low cost.
