To enhance the service performance of titanium alloys for demanding high-end equipment applications, an h-BN/SiC-Ti-MAO composite coating was fabricated on Ti6Al4V via one-step micro-arc oxidation (MAO). Optimizing the SiC additive concentration offers an effective way to improve the overall performance of the composite coating in mechanical, tribological, oxidation resistance and anti-corrosion properties. The research results show that the coating prepared with 4 g/L SiC yielded superior multifunctional properties. It possessed a dense microstructure with the lowest porosity (6.45%), high hardness (712 HV) and excellent adhesion. This coating maintained a low friction coefficient of approximately 0.20 from RT to 5 0 0 ∘ C and exhibited the best oxidation resistance at 6 0 0 ∘ C, with a parabolic rate constant ( K P ) of 3 . 3 3 × 1 0 − 4 . Electrochemical tests in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution further confirmed its optimal anti-corrosion, showing the lowest corrosion current density ( 3 . 3 2 5 × 1 0 − 9 A/cm 2 ) . In contrast, insufficient SiC concentration results in limited performance improvement of the composite coating, whereas excessive concentration introduces microstructural defects, ultimately degrading the overall performance. This study demonstrates that optimized h-BN/SiC co-doping represents an effective strategy for developing high-performance MAO protective coatings on titanium alloys.

Magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ) is widely regarded as a highly promising solid-state hydrogen storage material. However, its practical application is severely constrained by high operating temperatures and sluggish hydrogen absorption/desorption kinetics arising from multistep reaction energy barriers. Here, we rationally tailor a quinary Ti-based rutile-type high-entropy oxide to overcome these intrinsic limitations for the first time. The onset dehydrogenation temperature of the hybrid reduces to 195°C, which is 163°C lower than that of pristine MgH 2 . The composite releases 5.88 wt.% H 2 within 10 min at 250°C, accompanied by a 58% reduction in the apparent dehydrogenation activation energy. Moreover, a 1.84 wt.% H 2 uptake can be achieved within only 20 s at room temperature. The coexistence of various multivalent metal cations, lattice distortions, abundant defects, and oxygen vacancies in (TiNbCrTaFe)O 2 substantially reduces the multi-step reaction energy barriers during MgH 2 de/hydrogenation, enabling the overall kinetics to surpass those of all previously reported high-entropy catalyst-modified MgH 2 systems. This work expands the compositional design space and application scope of high-entropy oxides and provides a viable strategy for advanced hydrogen storage and catalytic systems.

The influences of Cr 3 C 2 addition on phase formation, microstructures and mechanical properties of (Zr,Ti,Nb,Ta,Hf)C prepared from binary carbides mixtures by spark plasma sintering were studied. The introduction of 4/3 mol.% Cr 3 C 2 significantly lowered the minimum temperature for uniform high-entropy phase (Zr,Ti,Nb,Ta,Hf)C from 2200 °C for to 1900 °C. The lower solubility limit of Cr in (Zr,Ti,Nb,Ta,Hf,Cr)C results in excessive Cr 3 C 2 -based carbides, which tends to segregate along grain boundaries at higher sintering temperatures while locate at triple junctions at lower sintering temperatures . High mechanical strength of 599 MPa were obtained when 4/3 mol.% Cr 2 C 3 was added and sintered at 1900 °C. The fine grain size and Cr 3 C 2 -based carbides are responsible for the high mechanical properties. More Cr 2 C 3 addition results in lower mechanical properties due to excessive Cr 3 C 2 -based carbides.

Advanced tritium breeder materials with high lithium density, robust mechanical strength, and fine grain size are prerequisites for the safe and efficient operation of fusion blankets. While Li 2 TiO 3 -Li 4 SiO 4 biphasic ceramics have been developed to balance the trade-offs between single-phase breeders, achieving rigorous control over microstructure stability at elevated temperatures remains a challenge. In this work, a dual-optimization strategy combining solid solution strengthening and biphasic compositing was proposed. Novel Li 2 (Ti,Zr)O 3 -Li 4 SiO 4 ceramic pebbles with various phase ratios (Ti/Si atomic ratio = 1:0.5, 1:1, and 1:2) were successfully prepared for the first time. The introduction of Zr into the Li2TiO3 lattice serves as a grain growth inhibitor, while the Li 4 SiO 4 phase enhances sinterability. The results indicate that pure-phase and well-crystallized powders can be obtained at 700 °C. Interestingly, the addition of Li 4 SiO 4 was found to hinder the phase transition of Li 2 (Ti,Zr)O 3 effectively. Benefiting from the synergistic effect, the pebbles sintered at 1000 °C exhibit a refined grain size of <2 μm, significantly smaller than that of traditional Li 4 SiO 4 -based ceramics. Meanwhile, a satisfactory relative density of ∼82 %T.D. and a high crushing load of >70 N were achieved due to the improved sinterability. This study demonstrates that the Li 2 (Ti,Zr)O 3 -Li 4 SiO 4 ceramic, which integrates the advantages of structural stability from solid solutions and mechanical robustness from biphasic composites, holds great promise as a high-performance tritium breeder.

The widespread use of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) in the food industry has brought about human safety risks related to nanotoxicity. In this study, food-related TiO2 NPs (anatase, 40 nm) were given to rats by oral gavage for 90 days at doses of 10, 100, and 1000 mg/kg bw. An additional two satellite groups underwent the same protocol for 45 days and for 90 days followed by a 28 day recovery. TiO2 NPs tended to agglomerate together in H2O, AGJ, and AIJ. No systemic toxicity was observed after 90 day agglomerated TiO2 NP exposure with no Ti distribution in major tissues/organs. Furthermore, TiO2 NP consumption for 90 days had no impact on microbiota diversity; the community structure of the gut microbiota is shifted to some extent at the genus level. Collectively, the NOAEL of agglomerated TiO2 NPs for 90 days of oral administration was 1000 mg/kg bw, the highest dose tested in male and female rats.

Water pollution is a dreadful affair that has incessantly aggravated, exposing our planet to danger. In particular, the persistent nitro aromatic compound like nitrophenols causes anxiety to the researchers due to their hazardous impacts, excessive usage, and removal difficulty. For this purpose, a novel multi-featured composite was constructed based on κ-Carrageenan (κ-Carr), MOF (MIL-125(Ti)), and magnetic Fe 3 O 4 for efficient adsorptive removal of o-nitrophenol (o-NP). Interestingly, BET measurements revealed the high surface area of Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) of about 163.27 m 2 /g, while VSM showed its excellent magnetic property (20.34 emu/g). The comparison study pointed out the synergistic effect between Fe 3 O 4 , κ-Carr, and MIL-125(Ti), forming a composite with an excellent adsorption performance toward o-NP. The adsorption data obeyed pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and Freundlich isotherm model was better fitted than Langmuir and Temkin. Furthermore, Langmuir verified the supreme adsorption capacity of o-NP onto Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) since the computed q max reached 320.26 mg/g at pH 6 and 25 °C. Furthermore, the XPS results postulated that the adsorption mechanism pf o-NP proceeded via H-bonding, π - π interaction, and electron donor–acceptor interactions. Interestingly, Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) composite retained good adsorption characteristics after reusing for five cycles, suggesting its viable applicability as an efficient, renewable, and easy-separable adsorbent for removing nitro aromatic pollutants.

Electromagnetic (EM) wave pollution is harmful to human health and environment, thus it is absolutely important to develop new electromagnetic wave absorbing materials. MAX phases have been attracted more attention as a potential candidate for electromagnetic wave absorbing materials due to their high conductivity and nanolaminated structure. Herein, two new magnetic MAX phases with multiprincipal elements ((Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 FeC) in which Fe atoms replace Al atoms in the A sites are successfully synthesized by an isomorphous replacement reaction of multiprincipal (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 AlC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 AlC MAX phases with Lewis acid salt (FeCl 2 ). (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 FeC exhibit ferromagnetic behavior, and the Curie temperature ( T c ) are 302 and 235 K, respectively. The dual electromagnetic absorption mechanisms that include dielectric and magnetic loss, which is realized in these multiprincipal MAX phases. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC is −44.4 dB at 6.56 GHz with 3 mm thickness, and the effective bandwidth is 2.48 GHz. Additionally, the electromagnetic wave absorption properties of the magnetic MAX phases indicate that magnetic loss also plays an important role besides dielectric loss. This work shows a promising composition-design strategy to develop MAX phases with good EM wave absorption performance via simultaneously regulating dielectric and magnetic loss together.

The widespread application of quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC) has posed a serious hazard to the environment and human being, and high concentration of Cl − in QAC wastewater may further increase the difficulty of pollutants elimination . In this study, such a QAC wastewater under high salinity conditions was chosen as the target, the prepared Ti/(Ru x Ir y )O 2 anode exhibited favorable catalytic performance for the oxidation and mineralization of QAC under high salinity conditions. Increasing the Ru/Ir ratio of Ti-based electrode coating also slightly promoted the inner catalytic capacity. The combination of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quenching experiments indicates that 1 O 2 served as a main reactive specie in the Ti/(Ru x Ir y )O 2 electrooxidation system. The increase of pH could decrease the removal efficiency of QAC for the reduced 1 O 2 yield, and the rise of Cl − concentration could favor the QAC oxidation, and Cl − was a better electrolyte to promote the oxidation of organic contaminants when compared to Na 2 SO 4 or Na 2 CO 3 . Additionally, the conversion pathway of the model pollutant was tentatively investigated, the results demonstrated that there were almost no halogenated final products residual by electrocatalytic oxidation with Ti/(Ru x Ir y )O 2 anode. This study not only elucidate the reaction mechanism of Ti/(Ru x Ir y )O 2 anode electrocatalytic oxidation of high salinity QAC wastewater, but also may provide an efficacious and eco-friendly method for the treatment of high salinity QAC wastewater.

Zn species that exist in the flue gas are dangerous toxicants for SCR catalysts, which will seriously damage its catalytic activity and service life. Hence, the multi-layered nanosheets γ-Al 2 O 3 with (110) facets were introduced into the CeTiOx catalyst to improve the Zn-poisoning resistance performance. Benefiting from the structural and compositional merits, as well as the superior reducibility, abundant acid sites, and chemisorbed oxygen, the 3%Zn–Ce 0.3 -Al 0.4 -Ti catalyst with multi-layered nanosheets structure exhibits excellent NH 3 -SCR activity, over 90% NO conversion between 240 °C and 340 °C. In addition, in situ DRIFTS results suggest the SCR reaction mainly follows L-H and E-R mechanisms on 3%-Ce 0.3 -Al 0.4 -Ti samples, result from the multi-layered nanosheets γ-Al 2 O structure improves the BET specific surface area and Ce 3+ , promotes the adsorption/activation of more NH 3 and NOx species. More interestingly, compared with CeO 2 and TiO 2 the Zn species prefer to absorbed on nanosheets γ-Al 2 O 3 with (110) facets, so it can effectively protect CeO 2 from poisoning as a sacrificial agent .

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising luminescent materials for display and lighting, but their stability has long been an issue. Here, we designed a passivation strategy of doping Ti ions into the shell of alloyed CdZnSeS@ZnS QDs. The results showed that Ti ions were successfully doped into the ZnS shell and the stability of QDs was improved. In the aging test, the Ti ions doped QDs maintained 51.4% of the initial performance after 90 h of aging, while the pristine QDs decreased to less than 25% of the initial value. In addition, we discuss the reasons why Ti ions doping improves the stability of QDs. Ti ions are found to form Ti–S bonds in the ZnS shell, which has high binding energy and strong oxidation resistance. Most importantly, since there is no external physical insulating coating, the optimized QDs can also be directly used in electroluminescent devices, showing great potential in electroluminescence applications.

Methanol electro-oxidation reaction (MOR) is the kernel of methanol fuel cell. When the multi-step microscopic transformations process of MOR couples and occurs on the same active site, undoubtedly it reduces the probability of reaction and increases the steric hindrance, resulting in slow reaction kinetics and degradation of catalytic performance. In order to decouple the dehydrogenation and CO oxidation in MOR, herein we synthesized the hierarchical catalyst (NiCo/N-TiO 2 @NaOH) with bifunctional spatial distribution, which displayed 73 mA cm −2 at the potential of 1.5 V (vs. RHE) and only 20 % degradation of performance after continuously electrolysis over 40,000 s. Based on analysis of mass transfer and electron transport in hierarchical structure, combining with in-situ mass spectrometry and theory calculation, the high MOR performance of NiCo/N-TiO 2 can be ascribed to the spatial decoupling the MOR reactions including dehydrogenation under synergic effect of Ni/Co and CO oxidation on N-TiO 2 film.

The cation displacement closely related to the local symmetry and corner-connected oxygen octahedral rotation are the structural origin of macroscopic properties in ABO 3 perovskite oxides. This work describes in detail the relationship between microstructure and macroscopic properties in 0.78BT-0.12CT-0.1BZS ceramic, which achieves the enhanced strain of 0.19 % with a hysteresis of 6.56 %. The atomic level structure is revealed by aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscope (AC-STEM). The AC-STEM HAADF images reveal the coexisting of polar nanoregions with O and T symmetries. Such a microstructure has a lower energy barrier, facilitating dynamic polarization rotation flexibly under external stimuli. The AC-STEM ABF image reveals the existence of the BO 6 octahedral rotation, with rotation patterns of the a 0 b 0 c 0 and a - b + c - , and rotation angles are quantitatively measured. The BO 6 octahedral rotation and cation displacement are found to be consistent, the greater octahedral rotation with greater cation displacements. These results have important implications for understanding the structural origin of the excellent properties in ferroelectrics .
