Although the titanosilicate zeolite catalyzed one-pot oxidative hydration of ethylene with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) to ethylene glycol (EG) takes advantages of step-saving and facile operation, both H 2 O 2 utilization efficiency and EG yield are relatively low. In the present work, Sn-doped Ti-MWW zeolites, named Sn-Ti-MWW, were developed for this oxidative hydration, showing the much higher H 2 O 2 utilization efficiency and EG yield, compared to Ti-MWW. The extensive characterizations of Sn-Ti-MWW zeolites, in combination with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, verify that the doping of Sn into Ti-MWW leads to the higher electropositivity of the Ti species, resulting in the stronger acidity of the zeolite, which is helpful to the H 2 O 2 utilization and EG production. In addition, although the catalyst deactivation is observed due to the deposition of the bulky byproducts onto the active sites and/or into the zeolite micropores, the simple calcination of the used catalyst readily restores its catalytic activity. Therefore, it is anticipated that the developed Sn-Ti-MWW catalyst might be applicable in the one-pot oxidative hydration of ethylene with H 2 O 2 to EG industrially.

Kesterite Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 (CZTSSe) is emerging as one of the most promising materials owing to its low-cost, non-toxicity, similar electronic properties with Cu 2 (In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS). However, the current highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) for CZTSSe device is far below the CIGS because of the high open-circuit voltage (V oc ) deficit and low fill factor (FF). Here, we fabricated CZTSSe thin film from 2-methoxyethanol solutions and investigated the effects of different Sn (Sn 2+ vs Sn 4+ ) oxidation states of precursor solution and selenization temperature on the crystal quality of the CZTSSe thin film and device performances. By characterizations and analyses, we found that incomplete redox reaction caused by the off-stoichiometric component in Sn 2+ precursor solution led to the formation of detrimental secondary phases such as SnSe, Cu 2 Se, and SnSe 2 in the CZTSSe thin film. The existence of volatile SnSe could cause the formation of voids and thus affected the FF and V oc . The reaction from Sn 4+ precursor solution to absorber material avoided the formation of SnSe. Ultimately, the Sn 4+ thin film showed better features in terms of improving crystal quality and reducing V oc deficit that limited the efficiency of kesterite CZTSSe thin film solar cells. Besides, we demonstrated that an appropriate selenization temperature could further reduce the number of secondary phases and improve the surface morphology and crystallinity of the CZTSSe thin film. As a result, we obtained CZTSSe thin film solar cells with 8.27% PCE from the Sn 4+ precursor solution under the selenization temperature of 580 °C.

In this paper, a visible light-responsive Sn 2+ and N co-doped TiO 2 photocatalyst was prepared by facile one-pot hydrothermal method. All as-prepared samples were characterized in detail by a series of characterization approaches. The results showed that the Sn 2+ and N elements were co-doped into TiO 2 , while the catalyst still maintains anatase crystal structure and gets irregular little nanocluster in diameter of 9–10 nm with higher specific surface area. The absorption edge of Sn 2+ and N co-doped TiO 2 extends to the visible light region. Compared with Sn 2+ -doped TiO 2 and N-TiO 2 , the absorption edges have obvious red-shift of about 50 and 70 nm, respectively. The synergistic effect of O 2p-N 2p and O 2p-Sn 5s hybridization to form impurity levels is the main reason for the red-shift. The hydrogen production performance of the Sn 2+ and N co-doping TiO 2 ( n (N)/ n (Ti) = 1) catalyst reached the maximum value of 0.37 mmol·h −1 ·g −1 under visible light, which is higher than that of N-doped TiO 2 and Sn 2+ -doped TiO 2 singly. This result is due to the wider visible light region-responsive ability of Sn 2+ and N co-doped into TiO 2 . Furthermore, mild hydrothermal methods will not make the Sn 2+ oxidized to Sn 4+ , which make the catalysts still maintain high photocatalytic performance. This work provides a simple and mild method for the preparation of dual-element co-doped TiO 2 with high crystallinity, excellent performance and broad application prospects. Graphic abstract

Dual-function and multi-function sensors can use the same material or detection system to achieve the purpose of detection of two or more substances. Due to their high sensitivity and specificity, dual-function and multi-function sensors have potential applications in many fields. In this article, we designed a dual-function sensor to detect Sn(II) and ascorbic acid (AA) based on the inner filter effect (IFE) between NaYF4:Yb,Er@NaYF4@PAA (UCNPs@PAA) and Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex. Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex has strong absorption in most of the ultraviolet-visible light range (350 nm–600 nm), and this absorption band overlaps with the green emission peak of UCNPs@PAA at 540 nm; Fe(II)–1,10-phenanthroline complex can significantly quench the green light emission of UCNPs@PAA. When Sn(II) or AA is added to the UCNPs@PAA/Fe(III)/1,10-phenanthroline, they can reduce Fe(III) to Fe(II). Fe(II) can react with 1,10-phenanthroline to form an orange complex, thereby quenching the green light emission of UCNPs@PAA. And the quenching efficiency is related to the concentration of Sn(II) and AA; there is a linear relationship between quenching efficiency and the concentration of Sn(II) and AA, within a certain concentration range the detection limits of this dual-function sensor for Sn(II) and AA are 1.08 μM and 0.97 μM, respectively. In addition, the dual-function sensor can also detect Sn(II) and AA in tap and spring water.

A two-step approach using co-precipitation and thermal reduction treatment strategy is adopted to synthesize Sn/FeSn 2 /FeO@nitrogen-doped carbon yolk-shell nanocubes with multi-phase nanocores for highly stable anode materials in lithium-ion battery. In the novel yolk-shell nanostructure , the multi-phase nanocores consist of Sn, FeSn 2 and FeO nanoparticles while the shell is made of amorphous nitrogen-doped carbon. With the synergy of multi-phase nanocores, the confining effect of the carbon shell and the in -depth nanocrystallization of Sn/FeSn 2 /FeO nanocores in the yolk-shell nanostructures, Sn/FeSn 2 /FeO@C nanocomposites exhibit high capacity of 601 mAh g −1 at 0.1 Ag −1 after the 300th cycle and capacity of 484 mAh g −1 at 0.5 Ag −1 after the 600th cycle. Our work suggests that high-performance battery materials can be produced by rational structure engineering of multi-phase nanocomposites.

High theoretical capacity and low discharge platforms of Sn and Sb-based materials are an auspicious anode material for sodium ion batteries. Although, their large volume change before and after sodium insertion during cycling leads to unstable electrode structure and poor cycle performance. In view of the above, a thermo chemical strategy by a simple one-pot for producing 3–6 nm diameter homogeneously dispersed Sn/SnSb nanoparticles on a nitrogen-doped graphene sheet with a large-scale and low-cost feature for high performance sodium ion battery is reported. Highly dispersed nano Sn-SnSb alloy/graphene composite electrode not only had good stress adaptability and good integrity protection to prevent agglomeration and polarization during cycling, and also provided the rapid Na + diffusion and electronic transfer channels, thus showing high rate and ultra-stable cycle performance. The as-prepared electrode could maintain the super stable reversible capacities of 251.8, 146.2 and 60.2 mAh g −1 at 1, 4 and 10 A g −1 over 1000 cycles, respectively.

Bismuth telluride-based thermoelectric (TE) devices were widely used in waste heat recovery due to their high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT), but the severe diffusion between Sn-based solder and TE pillar generated porous and brittle Sn-Te intermetallic compound (IMC), which seriously restricted the reliable service of devices. Ni-based coating was used but the thick Ni-Te IMC also impaired the properties of TE pillars. In this work, the crystalline Co-P coating was inserted between the p-type TE material Bi 0.5 Sb 1.5 Te 3 and the solder by electrodeposition, and the power generation sustainability of the TE pillar were significantly improved, and the mechanism was revealed. The microstructural characterization proved that the Co-P coating could effectively resist the diffusion of active Sn, Bi, Sb, Cu atoms. Co-P coating would provide support for the structural integrity and performance sustainability of TE pillars. It was worth noting that an ultrathin CoTe 2 IMC layer was formed between the Co-P coating and the Bi-Sb-Te pillar, which was much thinner than the Ni-Te IMC layer reported in the literature. This indicated that Co-P only consumed little thermoelectric elements, but also a good metallurgical bond was formed between the Co-P and the Bi-Sb-Te. After aging at 423 K for 150 h, the maximum output power and average Seebeck coefficient of the TE pillar without coating dropped significantly by 74% and 34%, respectively, and the internal resistance rose by 67%. Remarkably, the maximum output power and average Seebeck coefficient of the TE pillar protected by the Co-P coating only decreased by 14% and 5%, respectively, and the internal resistance only increased by 6%.

Functional sugar alcohols are a kind of burgeoning food additives to substitute saccharose due to the prominent biofunctions including moderate sweetness, low calorific values and no influence on blood sugar fluctuation, thus applied widely in food, medical, health protection as well as chemical production. Traditional synthesis of functional sugar alcohols required high temperature and H 2 pressure, as well as leading to low reaction efficiency, side reactions and leaching of toxic metal ions. In the present work, Pt–Ni–Sn/MWCNTs catalyst was obtained using a liquid phase reduction method with the transition metals loading of Pt 3.4%, Ni 0.7%, Sn 0.4%, respectively. The catalyst catalyzed the preparation of xylitol , sorbitol , mannitol and galactitol with the high monosaccharide conversion (>99.5%) and yield (>99.1%) under relatively mild conditions (100 °C, 3.0 MPa H 2 ), which were lower than ever reported. For the 13-batch reuse of Pt–Ni–Sn/MWCNTs, the total conversion of xylose was 99.4% and the total yield of xylitol was 99.2%, the productivity of 103.2 g xylitol per gram of catalyst was also obtained. Besides, no side reactions, no metal ions as well as no changes of pH were observed in the reaction process. Our trimetallic catalyst exhibited valuable potential in functional sugar alcohols production.

Promethazine (PMZ) is an effective antihistamine that is used as a nerve tranquilizer to treat mental disorders. However, drug abuse causes harm to the human body and also pollutes the environment to a certain extent. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a highly selective and sensitive biosensor for PMZ determination. An acupuncture needle (AN) was used as an electrode in 2015, and further research on the electrode's essence in electrochemistry is needed. In this work, a sensor based on a surface imprinted film coordinated Au/Sn biometal was first fabricated on AN via electrochemistry. The obtained cavities showed complementary and suitable sites for “N atom” electron transfer through the phenyl ring structure in promethazine, which is rigorous for the configuration near the interface. Under the optimal conditions, MIP/Au/Sn/ANE exhibits a good linear relationship in the range of 0.5 μM–500 μM, and the detection limit (LOD) is 0.14 μM (S/N = 3). The sensor exhibits good repeatability, stability, and selectivity and can be successfully used to analyze and detect PMZ in human serum and environmental water. The findings are scientifically significant for AN electrochemistry and the sensors have potential for in vivo medicamentosus monitoring in the future.

Triacylglycerols (TAG) are differences in fatty acid distributions between infant formula and human milk. In this study, fish oil (Tilapia, Golden pompano, Tiger grouper, and Basa) showed the potential as the source of human milk fat substitutes by comparing TAG profiles with infant formula and human milk. The total lipids and TAG of fish were concentrated in the by-products of fish (head and viscera) and contained high levels of palmitic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid. Compared with infant formula, fish oil was closer to human milk in sn -2 fatty acid distribution, and sn -2 palmitic acid level in fish oil exceeded 52 % of total palmitic acid, Golden pompano head was the highest (64.46 %). Further research showed that the content of sn -2 palmitoyl TAG (OPO and OPL dominated) increased from 157.16 mg/g TAG to 305.18 mg/g TAG by isopropanol enrichment (solid–liquid ratio: 1:4, temperature: −12 °C, time: 4 h).

The development of highly efficient electrocatalysts has attracted increasing attention in the field of electrochemical energy conversion. Therefore, we report a simple self-template method to construct Co–Sn–X (X = S, Se, Te) nanocages through the anion exchange reaction of CoSn(OH)6 nanocubes with chalcogenide ions under mild solvothermal conditions. Benefiting from advantageous compositional features and well-designed architectures, the obtained Co–Sn–X (X = S, Se, Te) nanocages display enhanced electrocatalytic activity for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline electrolyte. Remarkably, the Co–Sn–Se nanocages as the counter electrode (CE) catalyst deliver a prominent power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 9.25% for DSSCs compared with Pt CE (8.19%). Furthermore, when used as an OER catalyst, the Co–Sn–Se nanocages also exhibit outstanding electrocatalytic activity in terms of their low overpotential of 304 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm−2 and long-term stability in 1.0 M KOH solution. This work provides wide prospects for the rational design and synthesis of high-performance transition metal chalcogenide-based electrocatalysts for future energy conversion systems.

Sn-containing dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Sn-DMSNs) were successfully prepared by the in-situ co-assembly method. Sn-DMSNs preserve original structural characteristics with three-dimensional and center-radial pore structure. The nanoparticle sizes of Sn-DMSNs can be controlled systematically from 170 nm to 360 nm depending on the molar ratio of NaSal/CTAB. Sn species are incorporated into the matrix of silica and the highly dispersed SnO x species are achieved. Sn-DMSNs catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic performance and stability in the propane dehydrogenation. The highly dispersed SnO x species rather than polymeric SnO x or crystalline SnO 2 species contribute to the activation of propane and formation of propylene. The molar ratio of NaSal/CTAB also shows an important role in the structure of support and SnO x species. The excellent stability of Sn-DMSNs catalysts can be ascribed to the good ability to restrain coke formation and strong interaction between SnO x species and silica. The effect of potassium on Sn-DMSNs catalyst is also investigated.
