Uncontrollable lithium (Li) dendrite growth has hampered the application of lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Herein, a novel plastic crystal composite polymer electrolyte (nh-CPE) consisting of multifunctional two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and ion-conducting one-dimensional (1D) surfactant oxidized cellulose nanocrystal (OCNC) is developed to overcome this challenge. The nh-CPE possesses good Li-dendrite-suppressing ability, which is attributed to the well-designed three-dimensional (3D) ion conducting network constructed by homogeneously dispersed MoS 2 and OCNC. This structure facilitates Li-ion conductivity and enables uniform Li deposition on the anode. Moreover, the impermeable MoS 2 nano-flakes with excellent mechanical strength serve as physical barriers to hold the electrolyte-electrode interface stability and consequently block Li dendrite growth and enhance fire retardancy. When applied in LMB, the nh-CPE exhibits excellent cycle performance and rate capability, with 90% capacity retention after 200 cycles at 0.5 C and 60 °C, and a discharge capacity of 128 mAh g −1 at 1 C. Notably, owing to high room-temperature ionic conductivity (0.8 mS cm −1 ), the cell with nh-CPE cycled at room temperature delivers an initial discharge capacity of 144 mAh g −1 . The outstanding performance and simple process offer great opportunity to promote Li-dendrite-suppressing LMBs for practical application.

Herein, uniform cobalt manganese hydroxide (CMOH) nanoneedle arrays were firstly prepared via a low-temperature hydrothermal process using nickel (Ni) foam as a nanoneedle growth support framework. Subsequently, stable and integrated heterostructures of cobalt–manganese sulfides (CMS) with porous structures can be simultaneously formed and grown through the reaction of CMOH with Na2S during the hydrothermal anion-exchange reaction process while retaining their intrinsic nanoneedle array structure. The as-prepared CMS nanoneedle arrays as binder-free electrodes for supercapacitors exhibit a high area capacity of 0.53 mA h cm−2 at 2 mA cm−2 and good rate performance, as well as outstanding cycle life (only 6.3% capacity loss after 1500 cycles). Based on the unique architecture and excellent electrochemical performance of CMS nanoneedle arrays, a novel CMS-8//AC asymmetric supercapacitor with a high operating voltage of 1.7 V was fabricated using CMS nanoneedle arrays as the positive electrode and activated carbon (AC) as the negative electrode, respectively, and provided a maximum specific energy of 48.5 W h kg−1 at a specific power of 524.5 W kg−1. Such excellent electrochemical behaviors suggest that the CMS nanoneedle arrays are promising electrode materials for high performance supercapacitors. Moreover, the present synthesis strategy can be extended to prepare other porous, integrated and heterostructured metal compounds.

This study investigated the commercially available zero-valent copper powder and copper foil to activate molecular oxygen (O 2 ) and ozone for the degradation of organic pollutants. Under aerobic atmospheric conditions, copper powder effectively removed 50 mg/L of acetaminophen (ACT) within 2 h, though the degradation rate using the foil was less than 20% of the powder. However, copper foil activated ozone to effectively degrade ACT. The total organic carbon (TOC) removal reached a high of 58.3% at a catalyst concentration of 40 g/L, but only 26.8% with ozone alone. The initial solution pH and dosage of copper foil were key operational parameters affecting the ozone activation process. H 2 O 2 and Cu(I) were important intermediates in the process as hydroxyl radicals ( · OH) were identified via EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) experiments and free radical scavengers. The generation of · OH was attributed to a Fenton-like reaction between Cu(I) and H 2 O 2 ; this free-radical generation mechanism differs from typical transition metal oxide catalysts. This study outlines a promising approach to significantly increase the generation of · OH and effectively remove refractory organic compounds. Furthermore, these copper products are applied in structural components of practical water treatment. Thus, the study of corrosion resistance to oxygen and ozone in aqueous solution have both a practical and theoretical significance. It was determined that copper products were resistant to oxygen corrosion in aqueous solution, but not resistant to ozone corrosion.

Porous solid bases are increasingly attractive for applications in green chemistry and heterogeneous catalysis under relatively mild conditions. Here, covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) were first applied as a support for the porous solid strong bases through a redox process between the base precursor KNO3 and CTFs, leading to a relatively low calcination temperature (400 °C). As a result, porous organic frameworks possessing ordered microstructures as well as strong basic sites were successfully synthesized. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, temperature programmed desorption of CO2, and so forth. The obtained solid bases displayed remarkable catalytic activity in the aerobic oxidation of methylene compounds, and the yield of fluorenones could reach 93.6% at 120 °C, which was nearly 3 times higher than that of the control catalyst. The current research may present a new idea for the construction of porous organic polymers with strong basicity.

A piezoresistive sensor based on ultralight and superelastic aerogel is reported to fabricate MXene/reduced graphene oxide (MX/rGO) hybrid 3D structures and utilize their pressure-sensitive characteristics. The MX/rGO aerogel not only combines the rGO’s large specific surface area and the MXene’s (Ti3C2Tx) high conductivity but also exhibits rich porous structure, which leads to performance better than that of single-component rGO or MXene in terms of the pressure sensor. The large nanosheets of rGO can prevent the poor oxidization of MXene by wrapping MXene inside the aerogel. More importantly, the piezoresistive sensor based on the MX/rGO aerogel shows extremely high sensitivity (22.56 kPa–1), fast response time (<200 ms), and good stability over 10 000 cycles. The piezoresistive sensor based on the MX/rGO hybrid 3D aerogel can easily capture the signal below 10 Pa, thus clearly testing the pulse of an adult at random. Based on its superior performance, it also demonstrates potential applications in measuring pressure distribution, distinguishing subtle strain, and monitoring healthy activity.

The mesoporous carbon fibers, of about 400 to 900 nm in diameter, have been synthesized by an electrospinning method with PF resin and PVP as carbon sources and triblock copolymer Pluronic P123 and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as mesoporous templates. All materials have large surface areas (1215–2092 m2 g−1), high pore volumes (0.66–1.37 cm3 g−1), and mesoporous structure (with pore sizes of 2.31–2.64, 3.79–3.86, and 5.68–5.70 nm). The adsorption capability of four dyes, methylthionine chloride, methyl orange, rhodamine B, and congo red have been investigated. All the adsorption isotherms fit the typical Langmuir adsorption model well. The mesoporous carbon fibers show high adsorption capacity for these bulky dye molecules. The adsorption amount is mainly determined by the surface area, pore size and the structure/size matching between adsorbent and adsorbate. With the highest BET surface area, C-3.5 (with 3.5 g TEOS) exhibits the highest adsorption amount (1044 mg g−1).

A simple method was proposed for simultaneous determination of chlorpyrifos and its hydrolysis and biodegradation product 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) in soil samples. The analytes were extracted with ethyl acetate (EtOAc) under optimized pretreatment conditions such as the type, volume and pH of extraction solvent. Clean-up of the extract from soil was conducted by dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) using activated carbon as the adsorbent. High performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) was used for simultaneous determination of the two analytes. Under the optimized HPLC conditions, the limits of detection (LOD), obtained on signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 3, for chlorpyrifos and TCP were 0.0080 mg kg−1 and 0.0120 mg kg−1, respectively. Linear calibration curves were obtained in the range of 0.05–2.00 mg kg−1 and 0.03–2.00 mg kg−1 for chlorpyrifos and TCP, respectively. The spike recoveries from soil ranged from 89.4% to 114%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was in the range of 0.80%–14%.

A novel N-doped activated carbon (AC) based nanostructure decorated with nanotubes (N-CNT-AC) has been successfully fabricated through a facile and scalable approach involving the mechanical milling and subsequent solid pyrolysis of the low-cost and commercially available AC and melamine. Various characterization techniques including high resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were employed to reveal the relationship between catalyst features and catalytic performance in the oxidant- and steam-free direct dehydrogenation (DDH) of ethylbenzene to styrene. Although the as-synthesized AC-based hybrid nanostructure has a much lower surface area (397.0 cm2 g−1) and pore volume (0.17 cm3 g−1) than the parent AC (777.1 cm2 g−1 surface area and 0.4 cm3 g−1 pore volume), it demonstrates 1.74 and 3.67 times the steady-state styrene rate of the per gram parent AC and the industrially-used K–Fe catalyst, respectively, for the DDH reaction, which is ascribed to the promoting effect of the unique hybrid microstructure, the surface rich CO group and defect/edge feature, the increased basic properties through N-introduction into the hybrid nanostructure, the small size of the graphitic crystallite, as well as the inherent high surface and large porosity of the AC-based materials. The in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy measurement suggests a lower activation energy over the developed novel N-doped AC-based hybrid nanostructure for the DDH reaction than over the parent AC. Interestingly, the developed hybrid nanocomposite exhibits a much superior selectivity for styrene production compared to the parent AC, which is ascribed to the N-doping into the AC-based matrix. The developed N-doped AC-based hybrid nanostructure catalyst could be a potential candidate for catalytic styrene production via steam- and oxidant-free direct dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene.

An efficient and straightforward method is developed to prepare a mechanochromic photonic gel by fixing the metastable SiO 2 colloidal crystalline array (CCA) in the mixture of ethylene glycol (EG) and poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (PEGMA) through photopolymerization. Thanks to the recent fabrication of solvent-wrapped, metastable CCA, a high volume fraction of EG (46%) is introduced to the photonic gel before particle assembly, but not by swelling after polymerization, which leads to a more deformable composite than most reported opal gels. Compared to traditional photonic gels, this opal gel not only has improved mechanochromic sensitivity to weak external force and extended color tuning range from red to blue (Δλ = 150 nm), but also possesses fast and reversible response in millisecond level (20–200 ms), repeatable reflection signals in cycling and fatigue tests, and good resolution in response to localized deformation, which renders it an ideal deformation-based photonic display screen. A new trigger system is designed to solve the large deformation causing color fading in conventional mechanochromic gels and brilliant red, green, and blue (RGB) pixels can be conveniently manipulated by ‘pushing’ operations.

A simple and efficient process was presented for the selective hydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into the high-quality liquid fuel 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) in the presence of tetrahydrofuran (THF). Among the employed metal catalysts, the relatively inexpensive carbon-supported ruthenium (Ru/C) displayed the highest catalytic performance, which led to 94.7% DMF yield with 100% HMF conversion at a relatively mild reaction temperature of 200 °C for only 2 h. Although Ru/C had a little loss in the catalytic activity when it was used for five successive reaction runs, the partially deactivated Ru/C could be easily regenerated by heating at a mixed flow of H2 and N2. Moreover, the plausible mechanism involving an aldehyde group, a hydroxyl group, and a furan ring for the selective hydrogenation of HMF into DMF was also proposed. Subsequently, DMF was separated from the crude hydrogenation mixture according to their various boiling points by the combination of atmospheric distillation and vacuum distillation, and then, the chemical structures and physical properties of the separated DMF were confirmed to be consistent with the authentic DMF. More gratifyingly, Ru/C and THF were also found to be a good combination for the direct hydrogenation of carbohydrate-derived HMF into DMF, which is very important for the practical production of DMF from a variety of biomass-derived carbohydrates such as fructose, glucose, sucrose, maltose, cellobiose, starch, and cellulose.

A series of the supported nickel catalysts have been synthesized through impregnation, characterized by X-ray diffraction, N 2 sorption measurement, temperature programmed H 2 reduction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The morphology and particle size of catalysts are imaged by scanning electron microscope. The catalysts have efficiently catalyzed the one-step hydrogenation of 1,5-dinitronaphthalene to 1,5-diaminodecahydronaphthalene. The catalyst 10%Ni/SiO 2 -1a is the most active for the titled hydrogenation with 100 mol% conversion and 95.3% selectivity, applicable for the catalytic one-step hydrogenation of nitro-aromatic compounds. The reducibility of NiO species on different supports has been carefully studied. Some factors such as the type of carriers, the addition of modifiers, the silica source, the Ni loading, the H 2 pressure and the reaction temperature and time play important roles in controlling the hydrogenation. In addition, the negative effect of the water amount has been observed. The recycling tests reveal the recyclability and stability of the supported Ni catalyst.

Invisible photonic prints shown by deformation are prepared by soaking the mechanochromic photonic paper with crosslinker (PEGDA) and subsequently crosslinking part of the paper through a photo lithography process. The key point of this new technique is creating patterns and background with very close photonic structures but different mechanochromic capabilities, so that the invisible photonic patterns in relaxed state can be revealed under deformation due to the nonuniform change in photonic structure. Based on the relationship between crosslinking level and the reflection changes during deformation, one can conclude that a low crosslinking level favors the hiding of invisible patterns and a high crosslinking level favors the showing of patterns. The as-prepared samples can instantly and reversibly show the patterns by deformation and hide them by relaxation for many times, and the encapsulation by PDMS rubber prolongs its life time and enhances its durability in practical usages. The current printing technique is capable of creating invisible photonic prints in both macroscale and microscale range, which makes them potentially useful for security and antifraud applications in daily life.
