Developing effective techniques to produce and stabilize highly active metastable F-Al-O species in HFCs dehydrofluorination system without being over-fluorinated to Al-F is a major challenge. Herein, we report a new strategy for the formation and stabilization of metastable species. Using NaH 2 PO 4 as a P source, phosphoric acid groups are modified to the surface of Al 2 O 3 leading to the fabrication of AlPO 4 /Al 2 O 3 interface. P and Al 2 O 3 bond to form Al-O-P structure at the interface and stabilize F-Al-O in the dehydrofluorination system. Further studies show that AlPO 4 /Al 2 O 3 interface increase the oxygen vacancy content of catalyst and accelerate the conversion of HFC-152a on the catalyst surface. Meanwhile, AlPO 4 /Al 2 O 3 interface improves the surface acidity of Al 2 O 3 , endue a large number of Lewis weak acid sites, reducing the carbon accumulation of catalyst, and improving the stability of catalyst. The activity test showed that AlPO 4 /Al 2 O 3 interface shows high catalytic performance (74.2 %) and excellent stability (50 h) for 1,1-difluoroethane dehydrogenation compared with Al 2 O 3 (30 % and low stability) without P modification.

M-cresol and p-cresol, typically produced as mixtures in industrial processes, are crucial chemical intermediates. However, their separation is challenging due to their similar structures and properties. ZSM-5 zeolite has shown potential as an adsorbent for separation, while the performance is yet to be improved. In this study, ZSM-5-F(x) was synthesized via hydrothermal method, incorporating F − ions during the synthesis process. The adsorption behaviour of m-cresol and p-cresol on ZSM-5-F(x) was investigated through static experiments, with ZSM-5-F(8) demonstrating the highest selectivity (9.01). Both ZSM-5-F(0) and ZSM-5-F(8) were characterized using XRD, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) techniques. In addition, the introduction of F − ions increased the material's electronegativity, as demonstrated by the change in zeta potential from 53.22 to −45.93 mV. Single-component adsorption of m-cresol or p-cresol on ZSM-5-F(0) and ZSM-5-F(8) respectively were investigated in detail. The adsorption of m-cresol on ZSM-5-F(8) showed a non-monotonic phenomenon with a significant decrease after 0.06 mol/L. The thermodynamic parameters including Δ G , Δ H , and Δ S were calculated accordingly. All the values |Δ G |, |Δ H |, and |Δ S | of both components on ZSM-5-F(8) were greater than those on ZSM-5-F(0), suggesting that the introduction of F − ions facilitated the adsorption. Competitive adsorption experiments on both ZSM-5-F(0) and ZSM-5-F(8) were conducted at 298.2 K. The results indicated that the selectivity α p/m on ZSM-5-F(8) increased with increasing initial concentration and laid between 13 and 14. After seven consecutive regeneration cycles, the selectivity (α p/m ) only decreased to 13. This study suggests that ZSM-5-F(8) could be a promising adsorbent for m-cresol and p-cresol in industrial applications.

In this study, La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 was synthesized by the sol-gel method, and its structural, morphological, magnetic, and magnetocaloric effects were investigated. The structural properties were analyzed by x-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the morphology. An integrated magnetic measurement system was used to determine the magnetic properties. La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 crystallized in a hexagonal crystal system with space group R -3 c . This was also confirmed by Rietveld refinement of the x-ray data from La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 . With the doping of Nd 3+ , the cell volume decreases, which can be explained by the angles and bond lengths of the bonds between the Mn and O ions and the distortion of the lattice. Near the Curie temperature, La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 exhibits significant magnetocaloric effects. The magnetic study of La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 suggests that the transition from the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase can occur near the Curie temperature. The maximum magnetic entropy change and relative cooling power (RCP) of La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 (298 K, 3 T) are 2.70 J/(kg K) and 135 (J/kg), respectively. The effect of f -orbitals on the magnetic properties of La 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 was investigated by first-principles calculations in density functional theory. Thus, it can be concluded that the magnetocaloric effects of the material after doping with f -orbital ions (Nd 3+ ) is enhanced compared to La 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 .

NH2-MIL-53(Al) nanorods studded with F− were successfully synthesized via coordination modulation with HF as a modulator. The investigation of the growth mechanism pointed out that F− plays a key role in the formation process. The incorporation of F− into the framework of NH2-MIL-53(Al) not only made the crystal morphology tunable but also magnified the fluorescence enhancement performance of NH2-MIL-53(Al) in water vapor, based on which a highly efficient humidity sensor was fabricated. Among different kinds of humidity sensors, the present sensing system stood out due to its fast response rate, good sensitivity and high selectivity with a low detection limit of 0.6 μg mL−1 (S/N = 3) and a wide detection range from 4 to 40 μg mL−1. On the other hand, a majority of the conventional electronic humidity sensors seriously suffered from temperature dependence, while the present sensing system got over this disadvantage. Therefore, the NH2-MIL-53(Al) nanorod layer-based fluorescence sensing system has the potential for application in the real-time monitoring of humidity under ambient conditions.

A novel sunflower-like nanocomposite of SrCo2S4 nanoflakes and functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) entanglement enveloped in nitrogen-reduced graphene oxide (N-RGO) is prepared by a cheap process. The unique entanglement structure of the material
exhibits higher specific surface area, better electrical conductivity and other properties. This helps to reduce the transfer resistance in the photoelectric process of the battery and improve the electrochemical activity, thus increasing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.
The new ternary cobalt-based sulfide material can replace platinum as the counter electrode (CE) material loaded on dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs with SrCo2S4@f-MWCNTs@N-RGO (SCS@f-M@N-R) as CE material show excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE,
8.06%), even surpassing than that of Pt CE material (7.51%). The low cost, excellent electrocatalytic performance and simple preparation method of SCS@f-M@N-R nanomaterial provide feasibility for replacing platinum material as the CE material of DSSCs, which is of great significance and persuasion.

Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) is a significant air pollutant with a notable environmental impact, necessitating precise monitoring. However, most existing NO 2 sensing materials exhibit low sensitivity and require high-temperature operation. In this study, we employed a hydrothermal and co-precipitation method to synthesize a novel ternary nanocomposite , In 2 O 3 /SnO 2 nanoparticles (NPs)/fluorine-doped carbon quantum dots (F-CDs). By varying the mass ratio of In 2 O 3 to SnO 2 NPs, we investigated the gas-sensing performance of the composite towards NO 2 . The results demonstrate that when the ratio of SnO 2 and In 2 O 3 reaches to 1 : 2, the 2-In 2 O 3 /SnO 2 /F-CDs gas sensor exhibited the highest response, excellent selectivity , and remarkable stability under ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation at room temperature (∼25 °C). Furthermore, the response of the 2-In 2 O 3 /SnO 2 /F-CDs gas sensor displayed a strong linear relationship with the concentration of NO 2 gas. At a NO 2 gas concentration of 3 ppm, the sensitivity was 238, which is significantly higher than that of In 2 O 3 /SnO 2 NPs and In 2 O 3 sensors. The response time and recovery time were measured at 62 s and 33 s, respectively. Finally, based on experimental characterization results and band structure analysis, we confirmed the promising effects of ternary nanocomposite in enhancing gas sensing.

Wood is a widely used carbon-storing material, but its applications are constrained by vulnerabilities to water, oil and fire. Existing coatings have limited functionalities, failing to meet the intelligent requirements of modern wood products and constructions. Inspired by bionics, a robust superamphiphobic fire sensing EP/F-POS@Fe3O4 coating was designed on wood substrate, fabricated from functional ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4) particles, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS, hydrolyzed into polysiloxane), 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrimethoxysilane (PFDTMS), and epoxy resin (EP) adhesive. Optimizing the EP content not only enhances coating stability but also engineers surface micronano reentrant structures, endowing the wood with excellent superamphiphobicity (water/oil contact angles >150°). The EP/F-POS@Fe3O4 coating maintains robust hydrophobic and oleophobic properties under sandpaper abrasion, tape peeling, glass bead impact, and knife scratching tests. At the same time, the coating’s effectiveness in reducing the wood’s liquid absorption further confirms its stable water/oil repellency. Importantly, beyond passive flame retardancy, the EP/F-POS@Fe3O4 coating features a breakthrough active fire alarm function: nonconductive under ambient conditions, it acts as a sensor upon flame exposure, exhibiting ultrafast (∼3 s) intelligent visual alarm response and excellent repeatability (>10 cycles), holding potential to mitigate fire risks. Obviously, the EP/F-POS@Fe3O4 coating shows great promise for future applications in wooden architecture and smart furniture.

Bisphenol F (BPF) has evoked global attentions due to its ubiquity and detrimental effects. Herein, a flexible molecularly imprinted fiber library was firstly proposed for the metabolic analysis of BPF in aquatic ecosystems . The library includes flexible single fibers and fiber arrays to precisely identify BPF and its metabolites with a wide range of polarities. Compared to commercial polyacrylate , the performance increased 11.56–570.98-fold. The adsorption capacity and the Log K ow value were positively related. These arrays were used for the acquisition of environmental metabolomics data from aquatic ecosystems. In-depth data analysis showed that risk quotient was lower than 0.76, and bioaccumulation factor was lower than 2000 L/kg. Distribution concentration of BPF and its metabolites changed seasonally, and accumulation in sediment was much larger than that in surface water and hydrobionts. The risk is gradually increasing in sediment, but it does not reach high risk. The likelihood of bioaccumulation of parent compounds was greater than its metabolites. The library can be used in the metabolic diagnosis of pollutants with a broad range of polarities, providing a new method to acquire data for further ecological risk assessment , and offering a revolutionary strategy for environmental metabolomics investigation in aquatic ecosystems.

Photocatalytic degradation is an eco-friendly and sustainable method for the treatment of water pollutants especially tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH). Herein, we developed F-doped H2Ti3O7-{104} nanorods with oxygen vacancies using TiOF2 as a precursor by simple alkali hydrothermal and ion-exchange methods. The phase structure, surface composition, optical properties, specific surface areas and charge separation were analysed by a series of measurements. The effects of KOH concentration on the structure and properties of H2Ti3O7 were investigated. It is confirmed that the TiOF2/H2Ti3O7 composite can be formed in low concentration KOH solution (1 mol L−1), while the H2Ti3O7 single phase can be formed in high concentration KOH solution (>3 mol L−1). The prepared F-doped H2Ti3O7-{104} nanorods provide a high specific surface area of 457 m2 g−1 and a macroporous volume of 0.69 cm3 g−1. The appropriate mesoporous structure of the photocatalyst makes TCH have a stronger affinity on its surface, which is more conducive to the subsequent photodegradation. Moreover, a synergistic mechanism of photosensitization and ligand–metal charge transfer (LMCT) in the photocatalytic degradation of TCH was proposed. In addition, the prepared F-doped H2Ti3O7-{104} nanorods showed excellent cycle stability and resistance to light corrosion. After five cycles of photodegradation, the degradation rate of TCH was only reduced from 92% to 83%. This low-cost strategy could be used for the mass production of efficient photocatalysts, which can be used for TCH clean-up in wastewater treatment.

Food to microorganisms (F/M) ratio is one of the most important factors affecting microbial growth and pollutant removal in biological wastewater treatment system. For stability of aerobic granular process, optimal range of F/M ratio and a maneuverable F/M ratio control method via quantitative sludge discharge were investigated in this study. Results showed that stable aerobic granules were achieved with good settleability, high pollutant removal efficiency and microbial diversity when F/M ratio was controlled at 0.4–0.5 gCOD/gSS d. In addition, a maneuverable F/M ratio control method via quantitative sludge discharge was developed to verify the feasibility for optimization of F/M ratio. By this method, aerobic granules cultivated with the F/M ratio of 0.4 ± 0.02 gCOD/gSS d had better pollutant removal performance and stable structure with higher protein-like components in EPS. This study further revealed the importance of F/M ratio in the stability of aerobic granular sludge process.

The instability of P─F bond-based electrolyte (PFE) under ambient conditions presents one of the biggest challenges for the production, usage, and recycling of lithium (Li) batteries. It increases the cost of battery production, decreases battery service life, and harms human health and environmental sustainability during the use of batteries. Here a stabilized P─F bond electrolyte (SPFE) is reported, which can effectively prevent the side-reactions in PFE at ambient conditions. The SPFE, which is pristine, containing ultra-high content of water (10 000 ppm or 10 g L −1 ), can support the 2 Ah Li-ion pouch cell (200 Wh kg −1 ) cycling 400 times with 90.2% of its capacity retained. The mostly dry room-free (DRF) production of commercial Li-ion (2Ah, 200 Wh kg −1 ) and anode-free (AF) Li metal pouch cell (2 Ah, 410 Wh kg −1 ) also demonstrated excellent cycling stability with the SPFE. Moreover, the SPFE enables AF Li-metal batteries (AFLMBs) to retain 54.1% of their charged capacity even after 180 days of open circuit storage. By intrinsically safeguarding PFE from hydrolysis, the present SPFE would have a broad impact on future battery technology, simplifying battery production, extending battery service life, and safeguarding battery recyclability.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) were typical POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) in water. In this study, fluorine-doped covalent triazine framework (F-CTF) was synthesized using an ionothermal method, and the adsorption behavior for PFOA and 2,4,6-TCP on F-CTF was investigated using batch experiments and adsorption kinetic tests. Characterization results showed that the large surface area and abundant pore structure of F-CTF provide a large number of adsorption sites for PFOA and 2, 4, 6-TCP. Batch adsorption tests showed that F-CTF adsorbent exhibited high adsorption affinity to PFOA and 2,4,6-TCP, and the adsorption ability could be described well by the Langmuir adsorption model. The maximum adsorption capacity ( q max ) of F-CTF for PFOA and 2,4,6-TCP reached 262.5 mg/g and 709.2 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption process obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption mechanism including electrostatic attraction, hydrophobic interaction, and ion-dipole interaction was further confirmed by pH and ionic strength experiments. Additionally, the UV/Na 2 SO 3 /KI system achieved 100 % degradation rate of PFOA and 2, 4, 6-TCP within 40 minutes and the influence factors were further studied. The e aq − was the main active species for the high reduction of PFOA and 2,4,6-TCP in the UV/Na 2 SO 3 /KI system.
