Structurally robust nanostructures on the surface of matrix highly determine the durability of superhydrophobic surface of cellulosic materials . Traditionally, the hydrophobic inorganic-organic nanocomposites were physically coated on the surface of cellulose fibers , whereas the nanocomposite was easy to fall off under external force due to the weak interfacial interaction between inorganic materials and cellulose, restricting their practical application. In this work, a sort of structurally stable superhydrophobic cellulosic materials was elaborately designed by successive in situ synthesis of Zn(OH) 2 nanoarchitectures and coating stearic acid (STA). The unique flower-like micro/nano structures as well as the presence of hydrophobic STA imparted the cellulosic materials with superhydrophobic behavior and the optimized water contact angle of synthesized STA@Zn(OH) 2 /paper nanocomposite was enhanced to 171°. Moreover, the resultant cellulosic nanocomposite also possesses excellent structural stability without STA and Zn(OH) 2 fall off as well as hydrophobicity reduction after bending 100 times. Compared to bare filter paper, both tensile stress and elongation at break of optimized flower-like nanocomposite reached 14.04 MPa and 25.24% with 109.6% and 323.5% improvement, respectively. Furthermore, such superhydrophobic cellulose-based material also presented excellent anti-fouling and antibacterial performances. This work proposed a facial and efficient strategy to construct structurally stable superhydrophobic cellulose-based materials, displaying great potential application in food packaging and outdoor anti-fouling fields.

To address the growing demand for efficient and stable energy storage in the context of green energy, in this study, an acid etching method was employed to in-situ grow Ni(OH) 2 nanosheet arrays on a nickel foam (NF) substrate. Subsequently, negatively charged Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets were electrophoretically deposited onto the Ni(OH) 2 /NF surface to result in a MXene/Ni(OH) 2 /NF composite electrode material. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed the homogeneous dispersion distribution of nanosheets on the material surface. The composite material exhibited high electrical conductivity and good hydrophilicity by rapid water infiltration within 150 ms. Furthermore, the Motte-Schottky effect establishes a distinctive pathway for electron transfer , which leads to the creation of electron vacancies or ‘holes’ on the MXene surface. This phenomenon significantly boosts MXene's electrochemical activity and enhances its affinity for OH − ions in the electrolyte, which consequently improves the performance of electrochemical capacitors . Electrochemical tests verified that the prepared MXene/Ni(OH) 2 /NF electrode displayed an areal specific capacitance of 0.223 mAh cm −2 at a current density of 1 mA cm −2 . The electrode displayed excellent rate performance with a capacity retention rate of 71 % when the current density was increased by five times. In addition, the assembled asymmetric capacitor with MXene/Ni(OH) 2 /NF electrode demonstrated an excellent cycling stability with only a 16.38 % capacity loss after 5000 cycles. It also exhibited the remarkable specific capacitance and long-term stability by achieving a high energy density of 43.68 Wh kg −1 and a power density of 424.96 W kg −1 . These results highlight the electrode's exceptional performance in terms of energy storage and power delivery.

Direct selective oxidation of methane (DSOM) to oxygenates under mild conditions is garnering increasing interest. UiO-66-H MOFs are effective for this reaction, while the active configuration of Zr-oxo nodes with adsorbed ˙OH species need further clarification from the atomic/molecular viewpoint. Here, we detect the evolution of the geometric and electronic structures of adsorbed oxygenic species on Zr-oxo nodes of UiO-66-H via the controlled ˙OH species. DFT calculations reveal a volcano-like curve relationship between the quantity of ˙OH species and the DSOM performance, which is further corroborated by experimental tests. Zroxo-˙OH is the main active configuration on Zr-oxo nodes of UiO-66-H at low ˙OH concentration, while it evolves to other oxygenic species (˙OOH, O2, and H2O) due to the self-reaction with the increase of ˙OH concentration, which leads to performance decrease. Furthermore, a critical descriptor of the p-band centers of O atoms in these oxygenic species on the Zr-oxo nodes is established, which can well represent the catalytic activity for the DSOM reaction.

Graphical A simple ex situ wet chemical transformation method of alkali treatment was proposed to prepare Ni(OH) 2 nanostructured flowers with large specific surface areas from Ni-MOF-74. The relationship between concentration of alkali and the structure properties of corresponding Ni(OH) 2 was uncovered. As the results, the catalyst of Ni(OH) 2 -0.25 performed remarkably catalytic properties with lower potential, higher current density and excellent durability towards MOR among various samples. Post treatment of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is widely employed to develop efficient electrocatalysts with better catalytic properties. But the complex processes of post treatment generally led to the collapse of the original structures of MOFs, making the preservation of their pristine hierarchical porous structure a great challenge. Herein, we propose the strategy of alkali treatment of Ni-MOF to transform it into Ni(OH) 2 with similar morphology and enhanced electrocatalytic properties for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). The structure and electrocatalytic properties of as-obtained Ni(OH) 2 nanostructured flowers were seriously depended on the alkali concentrations. As the result, Ni(OH) 2 obtained from Ni-MOF treated by 0.25 M NaOH (noted as Ni(OH) 2 -0.25) performs 1.5 and 2.5 times larger current density than those of Ni(OH) 2 -0.025 and Ni(OH) 2 -0.5 for MOR. Moreover, the electrocatalytic process and mechanism of MOR on the catalyst of Ni(OH) 2 -0.25 are also revealed. Hence, this ex situ conversion strategy of alkali treatment for Ni-MOF uncovered the transformation of MOFs in alkaline solution and develops robust electrocatalyst for practical application of methanol fuel cells.

Engineering semiconductor materials with vacancies and co-catalysts is a valid method to improve their photocatalytic performance. Herein, we prepared S vacancies-rich Mn 0.3 Cd 0.7 S nanorods modified with β-Ni(OH) 2 nanoparticles through solvothermal and co-precipitation strategies. The as-obtained 0D/1D β-Ni(OH) 2 /Mn 0.3 Cd 0.7 S nanorods exhibit excellent visible-light H 2 -production activity up to 71.09 mmol g −1 h −1 , 5.23 times higher than pure Mn 0.3 Cd 0.7 S and better than 1 wt% Pt/Mn 0.3 Cd 0.7 S and most reported Mn x Cd 1−x S-based catalysts. The apparent quantum yield reaches 46.68% at λ = 420 nm. We found that the presence of S vacancies and β-Ni(OH) 2 enhances the transfer/separation of photogenerated carriers and increases reaction sites, which is beneficial to photocatalytic H 2 -production reaction. This work proposes a new idea for the application of metal hydroxide co-catalysts and S vacancies in sulfide materials for photocatalytic H 2 production.

The potential application of microporous organic polymers (MOPs) in various fields have been demonstrated. However, further study of MOPs based on novel idea and delicate design remain a challenge. Herein, a unique phloroglucinol-based MOP with large numbers of –OH functional groups (OH-POF) was synthesized via simple and cost-effective microwave synthesis. Interestingly, the π-π interaction and hydrogen bonding among OH-POF, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and Nafion (NF) are beneficial to the combination of modification materials and immobilized enzymes into a whole on the surface of electrode. Furthermore, special structure and multi-functional integrated OH-POF material with a hierarchical pore system and large specific surface area as well as excellent electrical conductivity was applied as the immobilizations of AChE on carbon paste electrode (CPE) for improving its catalysis ability to construct organophosphate pesticides (OPs) biosensor. The electrochemical analysis of paraoxon and methyl parathion was achieved with wide linear range (5.0 × 10 −13 –1.0 × 10 −8 g∙mL −1 for methyl parathion, 1.0 × 10 −13 –1.0 × 10 −9 g∙mL −1 for paraoxon) and low limit of detection (LOD) (1.5 × 10 −13 g∙mL −1 for methyl parathion, 3.4 × 10 −14 g∙mL −1 for paraoxon). This work demonstrates the potential value of OH-POF material for electrochemical biosensor. Most importantly, it provides a fresh research idea and reference of further exploring the application of other MOPs in the field of environmental analysis.

The exploration of highly-efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalyst with well-defined structure to understand specific structure-performance relationship is crucial to meet the requirement of water-splitting. Herein, we firstly used atomically dispersed IrCl x to uniformly decorate ultrathin Co(OH) 2 nanosheets to dramatically improve electrocatalytic activity. The synthesized IrCl x -Co(OH) 2 nanosheets/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibits an overpotential of 230 mV to reach 10 mA/cm 2 , which was much enhanced compared to that of pristine Co(OH) 2 /CNTs (308 mV) and commercial benchmark IrO 2 (309 mV). X-ray absorption fine structure and density functional theory simulations demonstrate strong interfacial interaction between IrCl x and Co(OH) 2 nanosheets via the Cl-Ir-O and Ir-Cl-Co bond can efficiently boost its electronic conductivity. The accelerated charge transfer promotes the formation of more positively charged O atoms around cobalt centers, which is beneficial for the deprotonation on IrCl x -Co(OH) 2 and makes the catalyst facilitate OER.

Mg 7 V 4 O 16 (OH) 2 ·H 2 O was prepared by improving the hydrothermal conditions and Mg 3 (VO 4 ) 2 was obtained by heat treatment of Mg 7 V 4 O 16 (OH) 2 ·H 2 O at 700 °C. XRD shows a phase transition from a hexagonal structure to an orthogonal structure, which is confirmed by the HRTEM results. Mg 3 (VO 4 ) 2 keeps overall pencil-shaped SEM morphology with Mg 7 V 4 O 16 (OH) 2 ·H 2 O but shows a lot of spaces due to the loss of hydroxyl groups and crystal water in the structure during heat treatment. Mg 3 (VO 4 ) 2 enjoys a narrower band gap in comparison with Mg 7 V 4 O 16 (OH) 2 ·H 2 O. The space in Mg 3 (VO 4 ) 2 microstructure and its narrower band gap improve the transmission efficiency of Li + , reaching a stabile capacity of 151 mAh/g after cycling 100 times at a current density of 100 mA/g.

Configuring new nanostructured photocatalyst with high efficient photocatalystic capabilities is meaningfully for environmental pollution control. Herein, a p-n heterojunction nanostructured photocatalyst of Ni(OH) 2 /BiVO 4 was well designed and successfully fabricated via a facile solvothermal method, in which Ni(OH) 2 is a wide band-gap semiconductor. Being applied for photo-degradation of anion organic dye, it is found such Ni(OH) 2 /BiVO 4 heterostructures can not only increase the specific surface area and enhance the light response, but also effectively facilitate the photo-generated charge separation and transfer. As a result, 0.5-Ni(OH) 2 /BiVO 4 can possess a photocatalytic capability of 96% and a reaction rate constant 1.9572 h −1 within 90 min irradiation, being 6 and 18 times higher than that of pure BiVO 4 (16%, 0.1098 h −1 ). This study presents a new means to design a kind of high efficient wide band-gap semiconductor constructed BiVO 4 -based photocatalysts.

The pore-structural ordering in nanosheets-interlinked clusters is a significant issue for the electrochemical performance of Ni(OH) 2 as an electrode material for application in Faraday supercapacitors. Herein, the W/O emulsion stabilized by high shear mixer (HSM) is used as a medium to organize the pore structure in Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets-interlinked spheres. It is found that the water content in emulsion strongly affects the pore structure and surface area of Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets-interlinked spheres formed through the granulation effect of HSM. It is considered that the oil phase as continuous phase in emulsion can reduce the aggregation/agglomeration of Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets, resulting from the strong intermolecular force between nanosheets. As a result, the oil phase in emulsion is beneficial to the formation of ordered pore structure and the increase of surface area in the produced spheres. The characterization results indicate that the sample prepared at a water content of 20 vol% has the largest specific surface area and the well-defined pore structure enclosed with interlinked nanosheets. As a result, this sample presents excellent electrochemical performance and promoted cycling stability.

To achieve high NO oxidation efficiency, excessive O 3 must be used, which would lead to the high cost and escape of ozone. Herein, we adopted low cost and environmental-friendly TiO 2 as the catalyst of low concentration O 3 and H 2 O 2 system for high-efficiency NO x oxidation. The Ti sites on TiO 2 were the deprotonation sites of H 2 O 2 and H 2 O into Ti-OOH and Ti-OH species, respectively. We found that the surface of rutile phase TiO 2 had a low concentration Ti-OOH component but a large amount of Ti-OH after contacting with H 2 O 2 solution, thus lots of ·OH and a few O 2 − radicals formed with introducing O 3 molecules. H 2 O 2 solution induced the formation of a large amount of Ti-OOH and Ti-OH species on the anatase phase TiO 2 surface, thus lots of O 2 − generated in the O 3 /H 2 O 2 system. O 2 − and O H radicals could efficiently oxidize NO, in which O 2 − radicals could oxidize NO to NO 3 − in one step with high selectively. Therefore, anatase TiO 2 had better performance in NO x oxidation than rutile phase TiO 2 . The effect of temperature and SO 2 concentration on NO oxidation was also investigated, the results showed that TiO 2 -A/O 3 /H 2 O 2 system promoted NO oxidation at a low temperature and a low concentration of SO 2 .

Cobalt carbonate hydroxide possesses interesting capacitive properties due to the unique crystal structure. Herein, the hierarchical Co 3 O 4 @Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 dendritic structure was fabricated on carbon cloth with Co 3 O 4 nanoneedles as the inner core to enhance the conductivity. The loading efficiency of Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 nanowhiskers had improved obviously, and the nanowires provided more electrochemical sites to facilitate the superior electrochemical energy storage capacity of supercapacitor. The dendritic electrode with the core–shell structure had a high area-specific capacitance (1541 mF cm −2 at 1 mA cm −2 ), good rate capacitance (only 18.1% specific capacitance lost when the current density increased to 5 mA cm −2 ), as well as better electrochemical cycle stability (a capacitance retention of 72.1% after 5000 cycles at a high current density of 5 mA cm −2 ). The dendritic Co 3 O 4 @Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 and activated carbon as cathode and anode, respectively, were used to assemble an asymmetric supercapacitor, possessing the better area-specific capacitance of 87 mF cm −2 as well as well-deserved longevity retaining approximately 97.3% of initial capacitance even after 10,000 cycles at 1 mA cm −2 . The excellent properties stemmed from electro-active sites galore, strong adhesion between the core and shell, superior conductivity, as well as excellent ion transfer. The novel materials and feasible strategy are promising for next-generation hybrid supercapacitor with high performance.
