Perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) are emerging as one of the most promising candidates for next-generation display technology due to their outstanding optical and electrical properties. However, the inherent instability, lead-toxicity and poor electrical conductivity of PeQDs films have seriously hindered their commercial applications. To solve these problems, we adopted the strategy of Zr ions doping and in-situ passivation of CsPbBr 3 PeQDs with the short-chain inorganic ligand potassium thiocyanate (KSCN), which not only enhanced the stability and boosted the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of PeQDs films, but also improved their electrical conductivity. To further solve the problem of charge injection balance and improve the operating lifetime of the devices, we simultaneously used all-inorganic metal oxide semiconductor materials Mg-doped ZnO (Mg-ZnO) and Mg-doped NiO x (Mg-NiO x ) as the electron and hole transport layers of QLEDs (ETL and HTL), respectively. The operating stability of the devices was greatly improved while being able to withstand higher current densities. Therefore, using Zr-doped and KSCN passivated CsPbBr 3 (Zr doped CsPbBr 3 -KSCN) PeQDs as the light-emitting layer, we fabricated highly efficient and stable green-light all-inorganic quantum dots light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 13.8% and the maximum brightness of 24800 cd/m 2 . These green perovskite QLEDs provide a working half-life of 360 min (initial brightness is 1000 cd/m 2 ) and the operating half-life of the devices is more than two times higher than that of the reference devices. Our proposed strategy based on doping and in-situ inorganic ligand passivation will open a new avenue for fabricating efficient, stable and other colored perovskite QLEDs.

Mn 2 O 3 -Na 2 WO 4 /SiO 2 is considered as the most promising catalyst for the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) process; however, it only has a better catalytic performance over 800 °C. To improve its low-temperature performance, an attempt has been made to modify the Mn 2 O 3 -Na 2 WO 4 /SiO 2 catalyst using TiO 2 , MgO, Ga 2 O 3 , and ZrO 2 . Among the synthesized catalysts, the TiO 2 -modified Mn 2 O 3 -Na 2 WO 4 /SiO 2 catalyst shows markedly improved low-temperature OCM performance, achieving a high CH 4 conversion of ~23% and a good C 2 -C 3 selectivity of ~73% at 700 °C (the catalyst bed temperature), along with promising stability for at least 300 h without signs of deactivation. In comparison with the unmodified Mn 2 O 3 -Na 2 WO 4 /SiO 2 catalyst, the TiO 2 modification results in significant improvement in the low-temperature activity/selectivity, whereas the MgO modification has almost no impact and the Ga 2 O 3 and ZrO 2 modifications have a negative effect. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman results reveal that the formation of a MnTiO 3 phase and a MnTiO 3 -dominated catalyst surface is crucial for the improvement of the low-temperature activity/selectivity in the OCM process.

The great challenge in capturing harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using Metal-Organic-Frameworks (MOFs) materials still rely on rationally modifying its appreciable microporous character in hydrostable structure. Defected structure in MOFs might be very beneficial for creating expected engineering adsorbent. In this study, defect-engineering UiO-66 via imparting acetic acid (HAc) as an interfering agent was successfully fabricated by a simple hydrothermal method. The physicochemical properties of the obtained materials were intensively ascertained and identified through a series of applicable characterizations. By the proper participation of tuning concentration of HAc (HAc/TAc = 24, molar ratio), the obtained adsorbent UiO-66–1.0HAc was endowed with the highest adsorption capacity for benzene (367.13 mg g −1 , 25 °C) in the known UiO-66 materials, which was 41.9% higher than that of the non-defected UiO-66. With a higher optimized added amount of HAc (HAc/TAc = 48, molar ratio), the adsorption capacity of UiO-66–2.0HAc to toluene achieved the highest capture values (410.21 mg g −1 , 25 °C), which boosted 93% compared with the original counterpart. This demonstrated improvement was ascribable to the imparted structural defect-engineering derived from the missing-linkers of MOFs increasing the unsaturated adsorption site and concomitant enlarged structural properties of the resultant material. By identifying the DIH (Difference in adsorption heat), the obtained maximum adsorption selectivity of UiO-66–1.0HAc to toluene/water was further enhanced to 64.4, which was 3.7 times the original UiO-66, owing to the existed defect-engineering in adsorbents, indicating the potential differential competitive adsorption effect for benzene and toluene under humid conditions.

One-dimensional mesoporous Zr/La bimetallic hydroxide fibers (ZLFs) were prepared for the first time, by one-step electrospinning and high-pressure steam heat-treatment method, and they were used for effective removal of phosphate. The as-obtained fibers had a homogeneous composition and a large surface area, and they benefited from the high-pressure steam heat-treatment. Optimum heat-treatment conditions were confirmed, and the special hydrolysis mechanism in fibers and the Zr/La hydroxides formation process were analyzed. ZLFs with maximum surface area of 233.31 m 2 /g were obtained at a Zr/La mole ratio of 0.4:0.6. Influence of the Zr/La mole ratio of fibers on the adsorption property was examined; an impressive phosphate adsorption performance was observed with saturated adsorption capacity reaching 453.63 mg/g at a Zr/La mole ratio of 0.5:0.5. Notably, the ZLFs exhibited great anti-interference abilities against co-existing ions and pH values, along with good recycling performance. In summary, the ZLFs, produced via an easy method, with outstanding adsorption performance and high reusability, have great potential as adsorbents in the phosphate adsorption field.

Zirconium-doped ceria hollow slightly-truncated nano-octahedrons (HTNOs) (Ce 1-x Zr x O 2 ) were synthesized by a one-pot, facile hydrothermal method. The morphology and crystalline structure were characterized with powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The composition and chemical valence on the surface of the as-prepared Ce 1-x Zr x O 2 powders were detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The surface area and pore size distribution of as-obtained Zr-doped ceria HTNOs were measured by N 2 adsorption-desorption measurement. Mechanisms for the growth of Zr-doped ceria HTNOs are proposed as both oriented attachment and Ostwald ripening process and the formation of the hollow structure is strongly dependent on the addition of Zr 4+ ions. Furthermore, the as-obtained Zr-doped ceria HTNOs revealed superior catalytic activity and thermal stability toward CO oxidation compared to pure ceria. It may provide a new path for the fabrication of inorganic hollow structures on introducing alien metal ions.

The effect of Ca(OH) 2 and Zr(OH) 4 on the sintering behavior and thermal shock resistance of Y 2 O 3 ceramics were investigated in this study. The results showed that Ca(OH) 2 enhanced the densification of Y 2 O 3 ceramics. CaO generated from the decomposition of Ca(OH) 2 reacted with Y 2 O 3 to form a solid solution. The substitution of Ca 2 + for Y 3+ created V O ∙ ∙ that facilitated substance migration and pore elimination. Conversely, the introduction of Zr(OH) 4 exerted an adverse effect on the sintering. ZrO 2 produced by the decomposition of Zr(OH) 4 formed a solid solution with Y 2 O 3 which inhibited the sintering of Y 2 O 3 ceramics, where Zr 4+ primarily enhanced lattice stability rather than promoting sintering. The O i ′ ′ created by the substitution of Zr 4+ for Y 3+ reduced cation diffusion and hindered grain boundary migration. The mechanisms by which two types of additives affect the thermal shock stability of Y 2 O 3 ceramics are different. The Zr(OH) 4 -doped ceramics demonstrated better thermal shock resistance owing to their higher porosity, which changed energy release pathway and increased the resistance to crack propagation. In comparison, the improvement in the Ca(OH) 2 -doped ceramics mainly originated from the enhanced mechanical properties, which would suppressed crack initiation and delayed failure under thermal stress.

Despite global regulatory bans due to its hematotoxic effects, chloramphenicol (CAP) persists as an illicit veterinary antibiotic in food animals owing to its low cost and broad-spectrum efficacy. Current analytical methods to monitor CAP residues in animal-derived foods face critical limitations: instrumental analyses rely on expensive equipment and specialized operations, while immunoassays lack sufficient sensitivity for regulatory compliance. Here, we develop an ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor leveraging a zirconium MOF‑silver nanocomposite (Zr-MOF@Ag), which effectively enhances charge transfer and facilitates aptamer immobilization. Under optimized detection conditions, the electrochemical aptasensor yielded a wide linear range of 1–100 ng/mL (r 2 = 0.990) with an ultralow limit of detection (LOD) of 9.94 pg/mL. Additionally, the sensor showed no cross-reactivity with other veterinary drugs, with RSD of 1.00–0.94 % for intra- and inter-batch repeatability, respectively. The recovery rates of spiked samples ranged from 95.1 to 108.4 %.

The direct conversion of methanol, a cheap and readily available feedstock, into value-added methyl acetate (MA) is a promising route. Considering the MA formation mechanism is complex, the design of highly selective catalysts is a huge challenge. Herein, we report a Cu@Zr-Beta catalyst, encapsulated Cu metal clusters within Zr-Beta zeolite by an in-situ two-step hydrothermal method, which exhibits high dispersion of Cu species and strong metal-support interaction between Cu and framework Zr species. The formation rate of MA using the Cu@Zr-Beta catalyst is as high as 2.84 mol kg cat -1 h −1 with a methanol conversion of 8.7 % and a MA selectivity of 55.8 % at 240 °C, which outperforms comparison catalysts. Experimental and characterization studies confirm that the electronic interactions between the encapsulated Cu species and Zr atoms not only enable the production of abundant and stable Cu + species but also promote the synergistic effect between Cu + and framework Zr species, thus accelerating the conversion of methanol to MA. In-situ FT-IR and reaction results show that the Cu 0 site is responsible for the dehydrogenation of methanol to CH 2 O*, which then moves to Cu + -Zr(OSi) 4 site and couples with CH 3 O* to form CH 3 CHO*, and finally produces MA through C-O coupling with another CH 3 O*.

A new three-layered film was fabricated on magnesium (Mg) alloy via electroplating to guard against corrosion in a chloride aqueous environment, which consisted of an underlying double-layered zinc/copper (Zn/Cu) and a top aluminum–zirconium (Al–Zr) layer. The Zn/Cu underlayers not only impeded the galvanic corrosion between the Al–Zr coating and Mg alloy but also improved the adhesive ability between the substrate and the upper Al–Zr layer. Herein, we discussed the nucleus sizes of Al–Zr coatings at the stage of nucleation carried out with different contents of ZrCl4 in AlCl3–1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid. The sandwichlike three-layered Zn/Cu/Al–Zr coatings were systematically investigated by surface morphology, phase structure, hardness, anticorrosion performances, and first-principles calculations. The corrosion current density declined from 1.461 × 10–3 A·cm–2 of bare Mg to 4.140 × 10–7 A·cm–2 of the Zn/Cu/Al–Zr3 sample. Neutral salt spray testing demonstrated that the Zn/Cu/Al–Zr3 sample showed no evident signs of corrosion after 6 days of exposure. The enhancement of the corrosion protection property was related to the fact that the application of the Cu layer changed the corrosion direction from initial longitudinal corrosion to extended lateral corrosion and the top Al–Zr coating hindered the transmission of aggressive ions. In addition, upon increasing the Zr content in the alloy films, the Fermi energy reduced initially and then increased. The Al–Zr3 alloy with 8.3 atom % Zr showed the lowest Fermi energy (−3.0823 eV), which exhibited the most efficient corrosion protection. These results showed that the prepared three-layered coating provided reliable corrosion protection to Mg alloy and may thus promote its practical applications.

Heavy metal contamination has become one of the greatest global environmental problems. In this study, a magnetic calcium-alginate hydrogel-sphere encapsulated with Fe–Mn–Zr ternary-metal composite (MCHETC) was prepared through a combined co-precipitation and extrusion approach and used for the adsorption of heavy metals in aqueous solutions. The active sites were dispersed in the MCHETC, which can be separated by the magnetic force for the ease in operation. Above 80% of ultimate adsorption was completed at a contact time of 5 h. The copper uptake history was well described by the intraparticle surface diffusion model, suggesting a multi-step process for the adsorption. The optimum pH for adsorption was 4; the maximum adsorption capacity was 103.1 mg-Cu/g. The adsorption capability well remained after the 5 adsorption–desorption cycles and the copper could be recovered. Furthermore, the adsorbent performed well in the nature water spiked with copper ions. The mechanism studies illustrated that the adsorption was mainly controlled by the ion-exchange reaction. This study demonstrated that the MCHETC adsorption technology may be used for heavy metal removal and recovery with higher efficacy.

A W-Zr alloy doped with ceramic powder W54.5Zr35-xNi6.7Fe3.3Mo0.5 (ZrO2) x was prepared by powder metallurgy. The effects of the ceramic content on the dynamic and static compressive mechanical behavior and energy release properties of the alloy were studied. The results showed that the addition of ceramics enhanced the energy release characteristics of the W-Zr alloy, and made the alloy break more thoroughly and the fragment cloud distribute evenly. The reaction delay time was shorter and the energy release reaction was more complete. However, the maximum temperature of the alloy reaction decreased. In addition, the addition of ceramics improves the mechanical properties of the material, and its compressive strength is much higher than that of traditional W-Zr alloys.(ZrO2)1 exhibited good mechanical behavior and energy release characteristics. The aftereffect damage performance was further verified using a ballistic gun experiment. Ballistic gun test results showed that (ZrO2) 1 can penetrate A92124 aluminum targets with a thickness of 2 mm at a speed of 809.3 m s−1 and ignite post-target absorbent cotton, with both penetration and post-target damage capabilities.

High selective hydrogenolysis of furfural to 2-methylfuran over a metal oxide-based catalyst is promising and challenging. In this paper, a Zr-modified CoO x (Zr 1 Co 6 -325) catalyst was prepared via a simple co-precipitation/reduction and exhibited superior initial activity and remarkable circular stability during the hydrogenolysis of furfural (FUR) to 2-methylfuran (2-MF). As high as 71.2 % yield of 2-MF was achieved at 170 °C for 2 h and nearly no deactivation was found after five cycles, much better than those of reduced Co 3 O 4 catalyst (Co 3 O 4 -250). Comprehensive studies demonstrated that the over-reduction of the CoO species during the reaction process was the main cause of catalyst deactivation. The introduction of Zr species, on the one hand, inhibited the over-reduction of CoO species during reaction processes, thereby enhancing the circular stability. On the other hand, the introduction of Zr species promoted the activation and dissociation of H 2 and therefore improved the activity. This research unveiled the stabilizing effect of Zr species on CoO, providing guidance for the design of high-stable CoO-based catalysts.
