Flexible Li-O 2 batteries have attracted worldwide research interests and been considered to be potential alternatives for the next-generation flexible devices. Nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibers (N-CNFs) prepared by electrospinning are used as flexible substrate and an amorphous TiO 2 layer is coated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and then decorated with Ru nanoparticles . The Ru/N-CNFs@TiO 2 composite is directly used as a free-standing electrode for Li-O 2 batteries and the electrode delivers a high specific capacity, improved round-trip efficiency and good cycling ability. The superior electrochemical performance can be attributed to the amorphous TiO 2 protecting layer and superior catalytic activity of Ru nanoparticles. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations from first principles, the carbon electrode after coating with TiO 2 is more stable during discharge/charge process. The analysis of Li 2 O 2 on three different interfaces (Li 2 O 2 /N-CNFs, Li 2 O 2 /TiO 2 , and Li 2 O 2 /Ru) indicates that the electron transport capacity was higher on Ru and TiO 2 compared with N-CNFs, therefore, Li 2 O 2 could be formed and decomposed more easily on the Ru/N-CNFs@TiO 2 cathode. This work paves a way to develop the free-standing cathode materials for the future development of high-performance flexible energy storage systems .

The effect of RE 2 O 3 (RE = La, Y, Er, Lu) on the oxidation behavior of RMI-SiC ceramics in air and wet oxygen atmospheres at 1400 °C were studied. The outward migration of RE 3+ cations reduces the oxidation resistance of SiC-RE ceramics in air, but improves the wet-oxidation resistance of SiC-RE ceramics due to the formation of denser RE 2 Si 2 O 7 layer. The outward migration rates of RE 3+ cations may be influenced jointly by the RE 3+ cation radius and the formation rate of RE 2 Si 2 O 7 . The higher mobility of Er 3+ and Y 3+ cations makes Y 2 O 3 and Er 2 O 3 promising modifier for enhancing the wet-oxidation resistance of RMI-SiC f /SiC composites, although the modified components need to be optimized and further analyzed in a more realistic service environment.

In this work, a stable bimetallic hydrotalcite-derived NiCu/MgAlO catalyst and O 2 as oxidant were used for the toluene oxidation to produce the valuable benzyl alcohol (PhCH 2 OH) and benzaldehyde (PhCHO) under solvent-free and additive-free conditions. This strategy gave 7.2% toluene conversion with 70.7% selectivity to PhCH 2 OH & PhCHO. Multiple characterizations showed that highly dispersed metallic Cu and Ni were anchored on the support surface and a chemical bonding interaction occurred between the metallic Ni and the MgAlO. The metal–support interaction contributed to the formation of active Ni 0 species and NiCu alloy with abundant oxygen defects, resulting in excellent catalytic activity and acceptable stability. A plausible reaction mechanism for the catalytic oxidation of toluene over NiCu/MgAlO catalyst has been proposed. The attractive feature of the present catalytic oxidation system compared to conventional methods was its ability to achieve high selectivity for the desired target product. The further advantage of NiCu/MgAlO catalyzed toluene oxidation was that the reaction temperature and time could be below 180 °C and 2 h, thereby minimizing energy consumption and reducing effluent wastewater, which has potential application prospects.

The photocatalytic efficiency of hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ) is limited by its photoexcited state lifetime and diffusion length. By adjusting the surface structure, the photogenerated electron pairs can migrate to the surface and the charge recombination can be suppressed, which can effectively solve these problems and improve the photo-Fenton performance. In this study, four kinds different morphologies of α-Fe 2 O 3 - x (truncated hexagonal bipyramidal, cubic, hexagonal shape, and spherical) were synthesized by hydrothermal method , and a photocatalyst (H-α-Fe 2 O 3 - x ) with higher catalytic activity was prepared by hydrogenation. The results of UV–Vis DRS , PL , Raman, and XPS analysis , the oxygen vacancies and Fe (II) species were introduced into the α-Fe 2 O 3 catalyst after the hydrogenation reaction. The H-α-Fe 2 O 3 - x showed good degradation performance for TC and DX as EMPs model pollutants. The results show that the formation of oxygen vacancy and Fe 2+ is the main factor to improve the photocatalytic activity of the reaction system. Furthermore, the reaction mechanism revealed that reactive radicals involved in the H-α-Fe 2 O 3 - x photocatalytic system were •OH, •O 2 − , and h + responsible. This study provides an alternative technology for an easy and effective means for bandgap engineering to improve the photocatalytic performance of photocatalysts and facilitate widening environmental application.

The effect of aerobic dioxygen (O 2 ) residues and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) on dithiobenzoate-mediated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was studied. 2-cyano-2-propyl dithiobenzoate (CPDB) displayed excellent thermally oxidative stability against O 2 in O 2 -rarefied dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) but was readily oxidized by H 2 O 2 . Azo-initiated CPDB-mediated RAFT polymerization of MMA in DMSO under different media led to multi-component products, consisting of PMMA macro-CTAs, MMA-terminated oligomers and low-MW byproducts, while nitrogen deoxygenating and headspace eliminating gave rise to a comparable CTA efficiency, higher than that headspace limiting. H 2 O 2 -initiated CPDB-mediated headspace-free RAFT polymerization of MMA smoothly proceeded in DMSO even at 50 °C, suggesting the co-initiation by CPDB, and also formed predominant PMMA macro-CTAs, negligible oligomers and some low-MW byproducts. H 2 O 2 -initiated CPDB-mediated headspace-free RAFT polymerization of MMA at 70 °C displayed well-controlled behaviors with 2–5 wt.% byproducts, and the high fidelity of the PMMA macro-CTAs was confirmed by the chain extension via azo-initiated RAFT polymerization and Cu I -catalyzed concurrent ATRP/RAFT polymerization. Graphical AIBN-initiated dithiobenzoate-mediated RAFT polymerization of MMA in O 2 -rarefied DMSO under headspace-free media led to well-controlled behaviors comparable to that under N 2 deoxygenating. H 2 O 2 -initiated RAFT polymerization manifested the unprecedented acceleration by dithiobenzoate; ascribed to its oxidation by H 2 O 2 ; and well-controlled polymerization behaviors.

Catalytic oxidation of C C bond is a key technology to transform petroleum-based as well as sustainable biomass feedstock into more valuable oxygenates. We herein describe a convenient and useful oxidation strategy of converting ketones into carboxylic acids using homogeneous copper catalyst without additives and with O 2 as the terminal oxidant. A wide range of aryl and aliphatic ketones as well as β–O–4 lignin models were selectively oxidized to acids via C C bond cleavage. Mechanism studies by EPR and in situ NMR elucidate the principles of Cu/O 2 reactivity that involves C H bond and O 2 activation via a peroxide species. This provides an important foundation for expanding the scope of useful aerobic oxidation reactions using copper catalysts.

Premature leakage of photosensitizer (PS) from nanocarriers significantly reduces the accumulation of PS within a tumor, thereby enhancing nonspecific accumulation in normal tissues, which inevitably leads to a limited efficacy for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and the enhanced systematic phototoxicity. Moreover, local hypoxia of the tumor tissue also seriously hinders the PDT. To overcome these limitations, an acidic H 2 O 2 -responsive and O 2 -evolving core–shell PDT nanoplatform is developed by using MnO 2 shell as a switchable shield to prevent the premature release of loaded PS in core and elevate the O 2 concentration within tumor tissue. The inner core SiO 2 -methylene blue obtained by co-condensation has a high PS payload and the outer MnO 2 shell shields PS from leaking into blood after intravenous injection until reaching tumor tissue. Moreover, the shell MnO 2 simultaneously endows the theranostic nanocomposite with redox activity toward H 2 O 2 in the acidic microenvironment of tumor tissue to generate O 2 and thus overcomes the hypoxia of cancer cells. More importantly, the Mn(ΙΙ) ion reduced from Mn(ΙV) is capable of in vivo magnetic resonance imaging selectively in response to overexpressed acidic H 2 O 2 . The facile incorporation of the switchable MnO 2 shell into one multifunctional diagnostic and therapeutic nanoplatform has great potential for future clinical application.

Photocatalytic oxidation offers a viable method for removing low-concentration NO from the atmosphere. However, poor oxygen adsorption-activation capacity and high re-combination rate of electrons and holes limit the photocatalytic NO oxidation activity. To over-come these problems, Ni(OH) 2 clusters decorated NiTiO 3 Z-scheme heterojunctions are constructed by a precipitation method. The tight interfacial contacts and built-in electric field between the (0 0 2) crystal facet of Ni(OH) 2 and (0 1 2) crystal facet of NiTiO 3 promote a Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism. This Z-scheme mechanism will enhance the charge-transfer driving force and result in high separation efficiency of the charges, thus leading to an enhanced photocatalytic performance. Importantly, introducing Ni(OH) 2 is considered a promising strategy to enhance the adsorption ability of the O 2 , NO and NO 2 . This might help to increase O 2 activation efficiency and speed up NO deep oxidation, leading to high NO removal efficiency and low NO 2 selectivity. Benefiting from the above excellent properties, the photocatalytic NO oxidation efficiency of Ni(OH) 2 /NiTiO 3 composites is enhanced and the formation of more toxic NO 2 is inhibited compared with that of NiTiO 3 . This work offers a promising and effective route to design efficient NiTiO 3 -based photocatalysts in the application of environmental remediation.

The removal of hazardous Cr(III) complexes via advanced oxidation processes can generate highly toxic Cr(VI), posing significant environmental risks. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop alternative methods that completely suppress the generation of Cr(VI). In this study, with no detectable Cr(VI) in the solution (below the detection limit of 0.004 mg/L), the carbon nanotubes-modified micron-sized zero-valent aluminum (CNTs@mAl 0 ) can effectively remove 99.50% of Cr(III)-EDTA and 83.34% of TOC under the typical acidic conditions of industrial chromium wastewater (pH = 3.00) by activating molecular oxygen. Then the following alkaline precipitation can easily remove the decomplexed free chromium, lowering total chromium concentration to 0.11 mg/L, which meets most national and regional standards, whereas direct alkali precipitation fails to meet them. Serving as a strong electron reservoir (E 0 = - 1.662 V), micron-sized zero-valent aluminum (mAl 0 ) synergizes with highly conductive carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to effectively activate O 2 , facilitating the production of reactive oxygen species (primarily 1 O 2 and •OH) that drive the oxidative decomplexation of Cr(III)-EDTA. Furthermore, the organic ligands are efficiently mineralized, thus preventing Cr(III)’s re-complexation. More interestingly, once the Cr(VI) is possibly generated, it would be rapidly absorbed by CNTs and be immediately reduced by mAl 0 with strong reducing power, thereby completely suppressing the generation of any Cr(VI) in bulk solution. In conclusion, this study presents an environmentally friendly and straightforward treatment system for Cr(III)-complexes, offering an effective solution to mitigate the environmental risks posed by chromium, particularly Cr(VI), in wastewater.

A novel free-standing and binder-free air electrode with excellent electrochemical performance was designed for highly reversible Li–O2 batteries. The 3D hierarchically N, S co-doped macro–mesoporous carbon (NSMmC) was deposited on carbon paper (CP) via a template method, and then uniformly decorated with PdNi nanoparticles. The macropores of the porous carbon can provide enough space to accommodate discharge products, while the interconnected pores and channels efficiently facilitate oxygen and electrolyte diffusion. The introduction of PdNi nanoparticles greatly reduce the charge transfer resistance, resulting in the improvement of electron mobility of the whole cathode. Compared with Pd–NSMmC/CP and NSMmC/CP cathodes, the PdNi–NSMmC/CP cathode shows considerable enhancement of Li–O2 battery performance. The ultrafine and evenly distributed PdNi nanoparticles can not only provide enough catalytic sites, but can also tailor the discharge products into a cage-like morphology, which provides enough channels for electron and lithium ion transport. Moreover, the smaller size of the cage-like Li2O2 makes it decompose more easily, resulting in lower charge overpotential. This study provides a promising strategy to design 3D structured air cathodes for Li–O2 batteries with high electrocatalytic performance.

Recently, the activation of molecular oxygen (O 2 ) by graphite (Gr) supported aluminum (Al) composite for the in-situ generation of H 2 O 2 / OH gains increasing attention. However, the limited O 2 mass transfer and low catalytic activity of decomposition H 2 O 2 at neutral pH restrict its further application in the wastewater treatment. In this work, a novel N-rich graphite supported aluminum (Al-Gr-NPC) composite was fabricated by introducing the nitrogen-rich porous carbon (NPC) obtained from ZIF-8 derivative as precursor, and by a ball-milling and sintering process. The results showed that the NPC introduction not only improved the physiochemical property of Al-Gr, such as specific surface area, pore structure and hydrophobicity, facilitating the mass transfer of O 2 , but also made Al-Gr contain plentiful N species, serving as active sites for the two-electron ORR process and catalytic decomposition of H 2 O 2 . These excellent performances of Al-Gr-NPC favored the production and utilization of H 2 O 2 by the activation of O 2 at neutral pH and air aeration. The carbonization temperature of ZIF-8 determined the type of N species, surface area and the hydrophobicity of NPC. 1 O 2 was the main oxidant for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) degradation. 100 % TC degradation and 60.57 % of TOC removal were achieved within 60 min at neutral pH, Al-Gr-NPC dosage of 0.5 g/L and initial TC concentration of 20 mg/L. The toxicity of the final products of TC degradation were much lower than TC by ECOSAR software analysis. Al-Gr-NPC could be used for the removal of antibiotic contaminants from wastewater.

As one of the most promising advanced oxidation processes , the activation of S(IV) by iron-based materials to produce SO 4 •− has become a hot technology for the degradation of organic pollutants . However, the mechanism of radical chain reactions has not been clearly explored. Herein, we established a novel AOP system based on the combination of zero-valent iron (ZVI) and potassium pyrosulfite (PPS). Combined with the degradation trends of CBZ and the change of DO concentration, the system was proposed to be divided into a slow initiation stage in 5 min and a rapid degradation stage in 5 − 10 min. Through a series of quenching experiments, electron paramagnetic resonance tests and several probe experiments, the mechanisms of two radical chain reactions were proposed between ZVI and PPS: the first one produced O 2 •− and HO • , and the other produced SO 3 •− , SO 5 •− , SO 4 •− and HO • . The two-stage reaction and two radical production paths of the ZVI/PPS system were proposed for the first time, which provided theoretical guidance for the practical application of the ZVI/PPS system. The ZVI/PPS system has been found to have excellent environmental adaptability in the treatment of industrial wastewater .
