Although mercury is one of the heavy metal pollutants that endanger human health and the environment, it is also an essential raw material needed for industrial development. We try to use electrochemical reduction method to realize the resource utilization of mercury. MoS 2 @Ti electrodes were prepared using a one-step solvothermal method, and XRD, XPS, SEM and EDS were used to analyze the MoS 2 powder. The prepared highly reactive MoS 2 @Ti electrode was used as a cathode to electrochemically reduce the mercury-containing solution. After a series of single-factor experiments, under the conditions of stirring rate of 400 r/min, electrode spacing of 20 mm, constant potential of 2 V and electrolytic time of 2 h, the removal efficiency of Hg 2+ in 10 ∼ 50 mg/L HgSO 4 -10 % H 2 SO 4 solution reached 94.5 % or above. The reaction mechanism of MoS 2 @Ti was investigated mainly by using the indirect reaction of superoxide radicals and hydrogen radicals to achieve the reduction of Hg 2+ . And the MoS 2 @Ti electrode can still reach 80.0 % removal efficiency after five times of repeated use. A neural network model was used to predict the efficiency of Hg 2+ reduction in this system with a high accuracy of RMSE 1.3049 and R 2 0.9511. The above study contributes to the realization of the resource utilization of mercury.

This study reports on the development of highly-efficient Pt/CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 monolithic catalysts for the low-temperature conversion of NO to N 2 via CO-SCR. In this case, ultrathin TiO 2 nanosheet arrays are designed to in situ grow on flexible Ti mesh to provide more spaces/areas for the loading of highly-dispersed Fe 2 O 3 and CuO active components. Furthermore, Pt nanoparticles with an average size of 1.30 nm are effectively decorated on the surface of CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 . The H 2 -TPR and NO-TPD results demonstrate that the excellent synergistic effect between TiO 2 , CuO, Fe 2 O 3 and trace amounts of Pt is conducive to enhance the adsorption of NO and finally promote the CO-SCR. The obtained Pt/CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 catalysts exhibit excellent CO-SCR performance with 100 % NO conversion, and 100 % N 2 selectivity at 250 °C, showing great potential of de-NO x application by using toxic CO as reductant in industry.

The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) has been widely recognized as a promising method for green ammonia synthesis. However, the inert NN bond, inferior catalytic activity and small electrochemically active area impede its practical application. To circumvent these problems, we proposed self-supported Ti-doped iron phosphide (FeP) nanorod arrays grown on carbon cloth (Ti-FeP/CC) as an electrode for eNRR. The introduction of Ti doping sites regulated the electron structure of FeP, leading to electron migration from Fe to P, which facilitated N2-to-NH3 conversion. The as-prepared Ti-FeP/CC showed an enhancement of electrochemical surface area (ECSA), high electrical conductivity and well-exposed active sites. Ti-FeP/CC was capable of producing a high NH3 yield of 10.93 μg h−1 cm−2 and faradaic efficiency of 10.77% at an optimal voltage of −0.3 V (vs. RHE) in a 0.1 M Na2SO4 solution with excellent stability and durability during the eNRR process. This work not only presents a promising electrode material for eNRR, but also provides a new insight into rational heteroatom doping for electrocatalysis.

In recent years, Ga2O3 flexible solar-blind ultraviolet photodetectors (UVPDs) are gradually becoming the focus of research and the industry because of their excellent wearability, low manufacturing cost, portability, large area compatibility, and high scalability. However, the crystallization temperature required for high-quality α-phase Ga2O3 films exceeds the heat resistance of most flexible materials, so the growth of Ga2O3 films on flexible substrates is a very big challenge. In this study, a highly ordered α-Ga2O3 nanorod array and flexible solar-blind UV PDs with excellent performance were successfully prepared on a flexible titanium (Ti) substrate at 500 °C by a simple water bath heating method. When irradiated by 254 nm ultraviolet light, the α-phase Ga2O3 flexible photodetector exhibits an excellent self-power optical response at 0 V bias and exhibits excellent photoelectric performance with a responsivity of 15.3 mA/W, a fast rise and fall time of 0.104 and 0.077 s, a photocurrent density of 45.7 μA/cm2, and a high detectivity of 13.8 × 109 Jones. Bending and repeating experiments demonstrated that the detector had high stability. This study provides a simpler and less expensive method for the preparation of flexible self-powered α-Ga2O3 solar-blind UV photodetectors.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are new porous materials composed of metal centers and organic ligand bridges, which received great attention in the field of photocatalysis. In this work, Ag2CrO4@MIL–125(Ti)–NH2(denoted as AgCr@M125) Z–scheme heterojunctions were synthesized via a simple microemulsion method, by which highly dispersed nano–sized Ag2CrO4can be anchored uniformly on the surfaces of porous MIL–125(Ti)–NH2(denoted as M125). Compared with pure M125 and Ag2CrO4, the as–prepared AgCr@M125 hybrids show significant photocatalytic efficiency against inactivatedStaphylococcus aureus(S. aureus), reaching over 97% inactivation of the bacteria after 15 min of visible light irradiation. Notably, the photocatalytic activity of the obtained 20%AgCr@M125 is about 1.75 times higher than that of AgCr–M125, which was prepared via a traditional precipitation method. The enhanced photocatalytic antibacterial activity of the AgCr@M125 photocatalytic system is strongly ascribed to a direct Z–scheme mechanism, which can be carefully discussed based on energy band positions and time–dependent electron spin response (ESR) experiments. Our work highlights a simple way to enhance the antibacterial effect by coupling with Ag2CrO4and M125 via a microemulsion–assisted strategy and affords an ideal example for developing MOFs–based Z–scheme photocatalysts with excellent photoactivity.Keywords:MIL–125(Ti)–NH2;Ag2CrO4;S. aureus;Z–scheme;microemulsion method

Although the oxidative hydration of ethylene with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) to ethylene glycol (EG) over Ti-MWW zeolites take advantages of step-saving and facile operation, both H 2 O 2 utilization efficiency and EG yield are relatively low, because some extra-framework octahedral Ti species are usually formed in the Ti-MWW zeolites synthesized by prevailing methods, which are detrimental to selective oxidation . In the present work, an acid-modulated isomorphous substitution method, i.e. , layered borosilicate MWW-type zeolite (ERB-1) treated with HNO 3 aqueous solution containing tetrabutyl orthotitanate (TBOT), is developed to synthesize a Ti-MWW zeolite without extra-framework octahedral Ti species under the optimized synthesis conditions. In combination with the results from extensive characterizations for the synthesized zeolites, it is found that in the zeolite prepared by the currently developed synthesis method there are more open Ti(OSi) 3 OH sites formed, resulting in the stronger Lewis acidity that is very helpful to EG production from the oxidative hydration of ethylene with H 2 O 2 , compared to the one synthesized by the prevailing method. Moreover, the developed catalyst is recyclable after the regeneration of the deactivated zeolite by calcination at high temperatures. Therefore, it is anticipated that the currently developed Ti-MWW might be industrially applicable in the one-pot synthesis of EG from ethylene with H 2 O 2 .

MgO/Mg(OH) 2 is a potential thermochemical material with high heat density and stable characteristics. Four additives including Carbons, Carbides, Nitrides and Titanates were selected for modification. The decomposition behavior and kinetics analysis were both investigated. It is found that Titanates has a catalytic effect, and the tested energy storage density can be increased to 971 J/g. The spectral absorption of candidate material with 6% graphite can reach to more than 50% and 6% CaTiO 3 has an extremely high absorption in the short wave segment. In microscopic morphology, Mg(OH) 2 particles sintered at high temperature will form adhesion agglomeration. Due to the special microstructures of candidate materials, agglomeration phenomenon is effectively alleviated and the candidate materials with 6% graphite or CaTiO 3 are both ideal modified materials. The optimized mechanism of modified material with 6% CaTiO 3 was illustrated by model. To investigate the kinetics mechanism, the model of non-isothermal decomposition was developed. The activation energies of pure material, sample with 6%graphite and sample with 6%CaTiO 3 are 141 kJ/kg, 113 kJ/kg and 122 kJ/kg respectively. The shape factor polynomials and kinetic governing equations were obtained. According to the established kinetics equations, the heating processes at 8 K, 12 K and 25 K/min were predicted. The study can provide a necessary kinetics reference for the numerical calculation of thermochemical heat storage.

The large losses and UV-light instability of traditional pesticide formulations during spraying lead to low drug utilization and a threat to the environment and human health. In this work, a tannic acid and iron ion functionalized titanium dioxide pillared montmorillonite drug sustained-release system was successfully prepared. Pillared montmorillonite showed good foliar retention after tannin modification to prevent the loss of the drug during spraying. Under the irradiation of UV light, the shielding and absorption of UV light by the montmorillonite sheet, TiO 2 and tannic acid coating greatly enhanced UV stability of the avermectin (AVM). In addition, AVM@Fe-TA-TiPMt also showed pH response release due to the ion exchange and disintegration of the coating. With the disintegration of tannic acid coating and the release of tannic acid molecules, AVM was rapidly released below pH 7. AVM@Fe-TA-TiPMt exhibited enhanced insecticidal effect due to the excellent foliar retention effect and high drug release. The tannic acid-functionalized sustained-release system has achieved high foliar retention, UV stability and pH-responsive release, which is conducive to the efficient utilization of pesticides and provides valuable information for the development of clay-based pesticide formulations in the future.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as photocatalysts have received increasing attention. In this work, a dual metal-substituted UiO-66-NH2 (Ti/Ce-MOF) containing different Ti/Ce mole ratios (x = 0–2.46) has been prepared via post-synthetic exchange between Ce-UiO-66 and TiCl4, followed by amination. The solid had a high surface area (828–937 m2/g) and a large pore volume (0.451–0.507 m3/g). Under visible light, Ti/Ce-MOF showed x-dependent activity for H2O reduction and oxidation on a film electrode, respectively. However, such a change for H2 evolution in a Na2S/Na2SO3 aqueous solution was observed only after CdS loading. In combination with the photoluminescence and band parameters, we propose that the photoactivity of Ti/Ce-MOF for redox reaction is determined by its ability for electron transfer. Furthermore, there is an interfacial electron transfer from Ti/Ce-MOF to CdS and a hole transfer from CdS to Ti/Ce-MOF, respectively, significantly improving the efficiency of charge separation for redox reactions. This work offers a new insight that Ti substitution benefits the performance of Ce-based MOF.

With different oxidants (aqueous H2O2 or cumene hydroperoxide), Ti-containing silica catalysts (hierarchical TS-1, Ti-MCM-41, and Ti-HMS) were applied as catalysts for the epoxidation of methyl oleate (MO) and vegetable-derived unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs). We found that the catalytic performances of titanium silicalites were highly dependent on oxidant types. For the epoxidation of MO over hierarchical TS-1 (HTS-1), aqueous H2O2 is a better oxidant compared with cumene hydroperoxide (CHP). Benefiting from good molecular accessibility and high activity of Ti sites, combined with high hydrophobicity, ultra-high-yield epoxides were obtained over HTS-1. In contrast, CHP was more favorable for Ti-HMS catalyst, which was beneficial to selective conversion of MO into epoxide under solvent-free conditions. The superior catalytic performance was ascribed to the high surface area and pore volume of Ti-HMS. Furthermore, the corresponding structure–catalytic performance relationships and reusability of various catalysts were discussed in consideration of the effect of oxidants.

Under the abusive conditions, it is demonstrated that the thermal stability of LiCoO 2 and the safety of LiCoO 2 /graphite batteries are improved by doping and coating Al and Ti elements into the bulk structure and surface of LiCoO 2 . The trickle charge and the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) results show that after coating Al and Ti oxides on the doped LiCoO 2 with 2000 ppm Al, the exothermic peak shifts to a higher temperature and the exotherm decreases, resulting in the increase of the thermal stability of LiCoO 2 . In addition, compared to the LiCoO 2 without Al doping, it is also indicated that the thermal stability of LiCoO 2 can be enhanced by doping Al, the exothermic peak of the LiCoO 2 with Al doping amount of 10000 ppm is up to 250 °C. Under the abusive testing conditions including thermal shock and overcharge, the safety evaluation results of pouch polymer LiCoO 2 /graphite batteries are in good agreement with the trickle charge and DSC results. These results reveal that the thermal stability of LiCoO 2 can be used as an indicator to evaluate the safety characteristics of LiCoO 2 /graphite batteries, and especially the introduction of Al and Ti into LiCoO 2 can effectively improve the safety of LiCoO 2 /graphite batteries under the abusive conditions.

In order to improve the surface properties of Ti-6Al-4V, high-entropy alloy coatings were prepared by in-situ laser cladding on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V substrate. The microstructure, micro-hardness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance were investigated. The results showed that the high-entropy alloy coating was composed of BCC high-entropy alloy phase, α-Ti phase and (Ni, Co)Ti2 phase. The micro-hardness of the high-entropy alloy coatings is much higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V substrate. The coating also has a better corrosion resistance than Ti-6Al-4V substrate, even superior to 304SS in 3.5wt.% NaCl solution at room temperature. Compared with Ti-6Al-4V substrate, the high-entropy alloy coating has a greater wear resistance with the wear mass loss decreased 28.2% and 23.1%, respectively. Wear patterns of Ti-6Al-4V substrate and high-entropy alloy coatings are the coexistence of adhesive wear and abrasive wear, but the wear degree of high-entropy alloy coatings is lower.
