Low-temperature sintering and phase/microstructure tailoring of multi-element ultra-high temperature ceramics remain challenging, restricting the improvement of mechanical properties and the development of ultra-high temperature ceramic materials. In this work, a novel low-temperature reactive sintering technology was used to tailor the content of multiple borides and carbides in (Hf, Ta)B 2 -(Hf, Ta)C-SiC ceramics. It was found that the introduction of borides promoted the densification process of multi-phase ceramics. With the increase of borides content, the grain size of multi-phase ceramics gradually increased. The introduction of moderate amount borides helped to form a uniformly refined microstructure. When the molar ratio of borides to carbides was 2:1, the flexural strength and fracture toughness of multi-phase ceramics were the highest, which were 487.57 ± 38.3 MPa and 5.04 ± 0.09 MPa·m 1/2 , respectively. The main strengthening and toughening mechanisms included pullout of (Hf, Ta)B 2 grains and crack deflection.

To optimize the impact-ablation resistance of SiC nws @PyC/HfC coating, PyC-SiC double-layer interface phase was introduced. After impacting test, the crack widths of SiC nws @PyC-SiC/HfC were much lower than that of SiC nws @PyC/HfC coating. The impact-ablation resistance of SiC nws @PyC-SiC/HfC coating was better than that of SiC nws @PyC/HfC coating. The good impact-ablation resistance SiC nws @PyC-SiC/HfC coating attributed to the two-grade pull-out reinforcement effect, self-sealing function of Hf-Si-O glass generated from oxidation of SiC nws @PyC-SiC core-shell structure and the precipitation of HfO 2 grains from Hf-Si-O glass under ablation environment.

The conversion of biomass energy sources is a crucial direction in the transformation of energy resources, such as cellulose to high-value chemicals. As an important platform compound, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is one of the worthwhile products from biomass. Previously, the use of Hf/ZSM-5 catalyst demonstrated excellent catalytic performance, with the yield of HMF reaching 67.50% under optimal reaction conditions (120 min, 190 °C, H 2 O(NaCl)/THF). Based on the previous work, the effect of a series of metal salts on the preparation of HMF from cellulose catalyzed by Hf/ZSM-5 catalyst was investigated in this paper. This result demonstrates the addition of AlCl 3 promoted the production of HMF yield and AlCl 3 completed with excellent performance among five metal salts. Moreover, the yield of HMF was improved to 70.95% by adjusting the optimal reaction conditions. Graphical Abstract

HfC and TiC are high-temperature materials which can be used in astronautic and aeronautic industries. The titanium (Ti) and zirconium (Hf) have the similar chemical properties due to they are in the same IVB family. Zr x Hf 1-x C composites doped with different Hf contents are prepared by pyrolysis of ZrC precursors. The precursor of aqueous solution systems is more environmentally friendly than in organic systems. The results show that prepare high-purity Zr x Hf 1-x C composites can be obtained at the Zr: C and Hf: C molar ratio more than 1: 4. The mole number of C is at least four times than the metal ions Zr 4+ or Hf 4+ . All the prepared composites exist in the form of solid solution. The results show that the average particle size of Zr x Hf 1-x C composite ceramic particles is about 100 nm, and the distribution is uniform and dendritic. Zr 0.25 Hf 0.75 C composites can increase the oxidation temperature to 478.6 °C, which is a certain increase compared with the initial oxidation temperature of ZrC of 460 °C. Meanwhile, the first principles simulation showed that Zr 0.5 Hf 0.5 C has the best mechanical property and thermodynamic properties in Zr x Hf 1-x C system, which can provide a future choice for good mechanical properties of block materials.

In recent years, graphene oxide assisted etching silicon has been considered a potential method to replace metal-assisted chemical etching. This work demonstrated the catalytic ability of graphene oxide synthesized by the Hummers method to promote chemical etching of silicon. By adjusting HF/H2O2 ratio of the solution and reaction temperature, a minimum weighted average reflectance of 9.9% in the wavelength range of 300–1100 nm was obtained. An etching rate of 10 μm h−1, faster than those in others' reports, was obtained in an optimized acidic solution at 80 °C. Finally, a four-electron model for graphene oxide assisted etching mechanism was proposed to explain our research results.

Device stability is one of the key parameters for transistor applications. To improve the stability of Indium oxide (In 2 O 3 ) after a long-time gate bias, a synthetic solution of hafnium chloride (HfCl 4 ) and indium nitrate (In(NO 3 ) 3 ∙xH 2 O) reagents were used to obtain 0% to 5-at.% Hf doped In 2 O 3 thin-film transistors. With the increase of Hf doping concentration, oxygen vacancies and residual hydroxyl groups continue to decrease, suppressing the carrier concentration and influencing the trap state density of In 2 O 3 . The sub-threshold slope (SS) 0.78 V·dec −1 for the undoped In 2 O 3 transistor in this work is a typical value. When the dopant dose is up to 5-at.%, SS decreases to 0.32 V·dec −1 . According to the proportional relationship between SS and the density of trap states, it shows that the density of trap states in the dielectric layer and the semiconductor/dielectric interface SS is greatly reduced after 5-at.% Hf doping. The probability of the charge being trapped is dropped as well. At the same time, under the doping of Hf, the transistor exhibits a very small threshold voltage shift. Especially at the dopant dose of 5-at.%, the transfer characteristic curve hardly shifts. This work demonstrates an In 2 O 3 transistor with high bias stability by doping method.

As a renewable biomass material, wood is often deteriorated by decay fungi. Quercetin was here grafted onto poplar ( Populus nigra ) using oxalic acid as a linker through vacuum-pressure treatment and esterification with various molar ratios of quercetin to oxalic acid (Q/O) to enhance the wood decay resistance. Decay resistance, flexural strength, graft mechanism, and microscopic structure of the quercetin-grafted wood were analyzed. Results indicated that the decay resistance of quercetin-grafted wood to white-rot fungi ( Trametes versicolor ) and brown-rot fungi ( Gloephyllum trabeum ) was significantly improved. The modulus of rupture (MOR) of the quercetin-grafted wood was reduced while the modulus of elasticity (MOE) was improved. Quercetin was grafted onto wood through formation of ester groups among oxalic acid, wood, and quercetin. The highest amount of ester groups in the grafted wood was achieved when Q/O was 1:2 and Q/O lower than 1:2 would severely degrade the wood. The thickness of cell walls of the quercetin-grafted wood increased and reached a maximum of 2.2 μm with Q/O of 1:2. Quercetin can be grafted on wood cell wall by oxalic acid as an environment-friendly preservative to enhance the decay resistance of wood.

A three-step procedure has been developed for superhydrophobic coating on wood based on epoxy/silica materials in combination with hydrophobization. First, the epoxy resin is adhered to wood by immersing the samples into an epoxy resin acetone solution, then amino-functionalized silica particles are anchored by the epoxide groups, and finally, the created surface is modified by octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS). The superhydrophobic surface not only is water repellent, as shown by the contact angle (CA) tests, but also decreases essentially the wood’s water absorption as determined by a 120-day water immersion test. The good mechanical stability of the coating was confirmed by a sand collision method.

Vanillin is an antifungal and environmentally friendly compound. In this study, vanillin and silica microcapsules (VSM) were microencapsulated using the sol-gel method and then impregnated into wood. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the morphological structure and distribution of VSM in wood. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to study the intermolecular interactions between VSM and wood. The antifungal performance of the VSM-treated wood was evaluated. The study revealed that VSM had good sustained-release performance and decay resistance. Mass losses of VSM-treated wood after leaching and exposure to Trametes versicolor (L.) Quel. and Gloephyllum trabeum (Pers.) Murrill decreased from mass losses of 20.8 % and 15.9 % of the control group to 9.2 % and 6.4 %, respectively. VSM treatment disrupted the mycelium of T. versicolor and G. trabeum , inhibited their respiratory metabolism, and the ligninase-laccase enzyme activity of T. versicolor . Meanwhile, MOR and MOE of VSM-treated wood were 96.7 MPa and 12.3 GPa which were 28.8 % and 11.5 % higher than the control group, respectively.

In this study, representative lignin samples differing in hydroxyl content, molecular weight, linkage composition and lignin units ratio were prepared from eucalyptus wood by different isolation means and modification means: milled wood lignin (MWL), kraft lignin classified at different pH (KL), lignocresol (LC), lignoresorcinol (LR), lignopyrogallol (LP) as well as lignocresol secondary functional switched samples (LC 2 nd deriv). The structure of various lignins was characterized in detail by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). In order to eliminate the interference of other factors, bovine serum albumin (BSA) with relatively simple protein structure and different kinds of lignin and their derivatives were selected as the research objects. The adsorption/desorption behavior and mechanism between lignin samples and BSA were studied by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). The results showed that the content of phenolic hydroxyl was the main factor affecting the interaction of lignin and BSA, but in addition, the molecular size, linkages composition and the types of lignin units also had important effects on its adsorption behavior. The research will provide theoretical guidance and all-round reliable basic data for the interaction of lignin on lignocellulose hydrolysis enzymes in industrial application.

A novel method for the preparation of bamboo fibers (BF) has been investigated that includes crushing, rolling, and other combing techniques with 1,4-butanediol as a dispersant. The fibers were treated by oxygen plasma to improve their interfacial adhesion to unsaturated polyester (UPE) resins. Composites were prepared from the plasma treated fibers (BF tr ) and UPE by hand lay-up compression molding. BF tr significantly increased the tensile strength, flexural strength, and flexural modulus of the resulting BF-UPE composites. Dynamic mechanical analysis indicated that the plasma treatment essentially increased the storage modulus and glass transition temperature of the composites. The damping parameter of the composites showed a decreasing trend in the glassy region, while the opposite was true for the rubbery region. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the treatment did not change the crystal structures within the fibers but increased slightly their crystallinity indices. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis revealed that the surface of BF tr had a higher oxygen concentration and oxygen/carbon ratio than that of BF. The scanning electron microscopy graphs of the tensile-fractured surface of the composites demonstrated an improved interfacial adhesion between BF tr and UPE resins.

Rubberwood was modified using a two-step process involving impregnation with maleated lignin (ML) followed by densification. The effects of ML modification and densification on the physical and mechanical properties of modified wood were studied. The successful preparation of ML was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. In addition, scanning electron microscopy was used to characterize the densified rubberwood structure, which featured fully compressed cell walls and cell lumina filled with ML. The rubberwood modification resulted in a more uniform structure and increased density compared to untreated wood. Further, water immersion and moisture absorption experiments revealed thickness swelling of only 27.7% and 20.9%, a reduction of nearly 76% and 55%, respectively, compared to the densified wood that was only impregnated with water. The ML modification can alleviate the embrittlement of wood caused by densification. The modulus of rupture and modulus of elasticity of ML-treated and densified wood improved by nearly 54% and 200%, respectively, compared to untreated wood. Therefore, the synergistic treatment strategy can contribute to the high-value utilization of low-quality rubberwood.
