In this paper, (1- x )Li 2 MoO 4 (LMO)- x Ni 0.2 Cu 0.2 Zn 0.6 Fe 2 O 4 (NCZO) ceramic composites were consolidated using cold sintering method at a temperature of 150 °C, which is far below the sintering temperature of NZFO ceramic-based systems via conventional ceramic preparation method. The phase composition, microstructure, dielectric properties and magnetic properties of the as-cold-sintered LMO-NCZO ceramic composites were studied. The relative density of all composites is larger than 95 % at a cold sintering temperature of 150 °C for 30 min under a uniaxial pressure of 200 MPa. XRD results showed that the composites were only composed of two phases. SEM revealed that the NCZO particles were enwrapped by the LMO phase. The 0.46LMO-0.54NCZO ceramic composite exhibited excellent magnetodielectric properties with an effective permittivity of about 8.3, a dielectric loss of 0.003, a permeability of 7 and a magnetic loss of 0.024 (@10 MHz), which make it potentially applicable in the miniaturization of electronic devices.

A new type of absorbent was synthesized by grafting N-methyl-D-glucamine (MG) onto the surface of chitosan beads to separate boron element. The physicochemical properties of modified chitosan beads (CTS-MG) were examined by FT-IR and SEM analyses. The results indicated that MG had grafted on chitosan beads (CTS) successfully. Compared to surface of pure CTS, CTS-MG had a rougher surface. While the pH value ranged 3–8, CTS-MG would have a high efficiency of adsorption to boron. The characteristics of the adsorption process were evaluated by Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms , and the maximum adsorption capacity of CTS-MG was 20.36 mg·g −1 . When mass of absorbent was not lower than 0.1 g, the concentration of 10 ml boron solution would decrease from 50 to 0.5 mg/L. This absorption process fit to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. CTS-MG had a comparatively high selectivity because general competing ions had little influence on the absorptive ability of CTS-MG. After 5 times adsorption-desorption cycles, absorptive capacity of CTS-MS did not decrease obviously. CTS-MG was hopefully used in the process of boron desorption in salt lake brine.

Semiconductor catalyst with high photocatalytic activity can be exploited via heterojunction. In this study, a new S-scheme SrTiO 3 /porous ZnO composite was rationally devised, successfully prepared by utilizing a two-step pyrolysis of SrTiO 3 /ZIF-8, and analyzed by various characterization technologies including XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, XPS, PL, UV–vis DRS, and photoelectrochemical and DFT theoretical calculations. A porous structure, tight contact, and a heterojunction formed between SrTiO 3 and porous ZnO (ZnOT) can be observed by SEM and TEM images. BET testing indicates that the SrTiO 3 /porous ZnO composite (S3ZT) shows the highest specific surface area (30.37 m 2 /g). The band gap values (E g ) of SrTiO 3 and ZnOT are around 3.17 and 2.95 eV, which agree with those obtained from DFT calculations. Compared to other samples, the SrTiO 3 /porous ZnO composite (S3ZT) shows higher light absorption and lower transfer resistance as demonstrated by UV–vis DRS and EIS results. S3ZT presents a superior photocatalytic efficiency of 48.8% in degrading 5 mg/L methyl orange (MO) irradiated by 1 h UV–vis light, which are 7- and 1.5-fold higher than pristine SrTiO 3 and ZnOT, respectively. Moreover, based on Mott-Schottky theory, active species trapping experiments, XPS determination, and DFT calculations (energy band gap and work function), it was shown to be reasonable to utilize the S-scheme charge migration process for an explanation regarding the better photocatalytic activity of SrTiO 3 /porous ZnO composite. Overall, this work will provide an effective protocol for devising and preparing semiconductor photocatalysts with S-scheme heterojunction by utilizing the superior characteristics of MOFs.

A series of SAPO-11 molecular sieves were synthesized in the concentrated gel system by reducing the water content in the synthesis system. With SAPO-11 molecular sieves as supports, NiW-supported catalysts were prepared for the hydroisomerization of n-hexadecane. SAPO-11 molecular sieves and catalysts were characterized by XRD, SEM, N 2 adsorption–desorption, NH 3 -TPD, Py-IR, HRTEM and XPS. The results showed that reducing the water content in the synthesis system could increase the mesoporous volume of SAPO-11 molecular sieve and improve the acidity of SAPO-11. For the corresponding catalysts, using SAPO-11 synthesized in concentrated gel system as the support weakened the interaction between the active phase and the support, and increased the dispersion and stacking number of the active phase, which effectively improved the catalytic performance of the catalyst. The yield of i-hexadecane of the catalyst NiW/45W-SA corresponding to SAPO-11 synthesized in conventional water content system was 28.14%, while that of the catalyst NiW/5W-SA corresponding to SAPO-11 synthesized in concentrated gel system was 52.24%. According to the distribution of isomers, it is inferred that hydroisomerization of n-hexadecane over NiW/SAPO-11 follows the pore-mouth mechanism.

The aim of this work is to explore the electrodeposition of uranium in low-melting LiCl-KCl-CsCl eutectic. A variety of conventional electrochemical techniques, including cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronopotentiometry (CP), and chronoamperometry (CA), were employed to study the electrochemical and kinetic properties of uranium at different temperatures ranging from 573 to 872 K. First, the electrochemical behaviors and diffusion coefficients of uranium species in the melts were investigated and compared to the published results. The temperature significantly affects the cathodic current response of the U4+/U3+ couple within the low temperature range. Moreover, the nucleation mechanisms of uranium in the electrodeposition process were evaluated, and the results indicated that nucleation and growth tend to occur via the same instantaneous mode at all applied temperatures and overpotential ranges. Finally, metallic uranium was deposited by potentiostatic electrolysis at an overpotential of −100 mV vs. U3+/U at different temperatures, and their morphologies and compositions were characterized by SEM-EDS and XRD, respectively. The results show that from 573 to 773 K, uranium deposits evolve form one-dimensional needle-like to multidimensional dendritic structures. No dendrite-free uranium deposits were obtained in the CsCl-containing melts regardless of the temperature.

A series of nitrogen doped biomass carbon catalysts were prepared through two different nitrogen doped methods by using soybean meal as the raw material, melamine as nitrogen source and KOH as the activators. The catalysts were characterized by BET, SEM , CO 2 -TPD, EA , FTIR , XPS and Raman. The catalytic performances of CH 4 –CO 2 reforming over different samples were also studied. The results show that the preparation method of the catalyst significantly affects the structural characteristics, N content and N species type of the catalyst. The characterization results also show the proportion of pyrrolic-N in the catalyst prepared by in-situ nitrogen doped method (Y-NC) is higher than that in prepared by the post-treatment method (H-NC). Pyrrole-N is more conducive to the adsorption and activation of CO 2 . So, the catalyst prepared by in-situ nitrogen doped method has good catalytic activity and stability. The conversion of CH 4 and CO 2 were respectively 40% and 65% at 900 °C after 50 h of CH 4 –CO 2 reforming reaction .

Recently, a Ti-containing hollownest-structured zeolite (Ti-HSZ) material with the shell constructed by randomly intergrown MWW (framework type code) flaky crystals has been synthesized through one-step rotating hydrothermal method within 3.5 days, which shows predominant catalytic property for the epoxidation of alkenes . Herein, it is firstly reported that the crystallization efficiency of Ti-HSZ material can be notably increased by applying seeds-assisted synthesis method. Thus-crystallized materials have been characterized by XRD , UV–vis, XPS , SEM , TEM, FT-IR, and N 2 adsorption-desorption. Moreover, the key controlling factors are revealed to include the addition percentage of seed crystals, rotating rate and filling degree of autoclave. When 2 wt% or 3 wt% seed crystals are added into the reaction gel, the crystallization time of Ti-HSZ can be sharply reduced to 2.5 days or even 2.0 days, respectively. Particularly, thus-synthesized Ti-HSZ-SM material still maintains hollownest morphology characteristic and excellent catalytic activity and catalytic stability. About 95% allyl chloride can be converted into corresponding epoxide when using H 2 O 2 as oxidant, and about 85% cyclopentene and 87% cyclooctene can be converted into corresponding epoxides when using TBHP as oxidant, with the selectivity for epoxides of nearly 100%.

In this study, two different polymers have been synthesized and introduced as adsorbents to study their performances in the removal of Fe(III) ions and phenol from wastewater. The polymers have been synthesized by mixing acrylic acid, acryl amide, and N , N -dimethylacrylamide. This is both used as a primary polymer and grafted with graphene oxide as modified polymer to compare their performances in Fe(III) ions and phenol removal. The structure and morphology of the polymer and the grafting polymer with GO were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and TEM. The effects of pH, time, contact temperature, and dosage of adsorbent were evaluated. From the obtained results, the optimum condition of the adsorption process was concluded to be a concentration of graphene oxide/polymer (1 g L −1 ) and polymer (3 g L −1 ) at an ion concentration of 75 ppm, pH 8 for 2 h. The highest removal rates for Fe 3+ and phenol were 92–98% and 86–89%, respectively. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was studied. The removal of Fe 3+ and phenol is consistent with a pseudo-second-order model, meaning physical adsorption occurs on the surface of both polymers. Other isotherm models, like Temkin and intra-particle, were used; the error function was calculated to test the fitness of all the models’ results. Adsorption was not consistent with the last two models and the result from the error function proved that the pseudo-second-order model is favorable for the removal of Fe(III) and phenol.

Searching a renewable and flame-retardant alternative to bisphenol A epoxy resins is a necessary development trend. Diphenolic acid , a plant derivative, has been proven to be one of the sustainable alternatives to bisphenol A. However, how to impart the flame-retardant property to diphenolic acid thermosets is still a challenge to synthesize high performance intrinsic flame-retardant bio-based epoxy resins. A flame-retardant bio-based epoxy resin (TEBA) was designed and synthesized via a three-step synthetic pathway from 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO)、diethanolamine and diphenolic acid (DPA). The chemical structures of the intermediate and final products were confirmed by 1 HNMR and FTIR spectroscopy. TEBA cured with 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM) curing agent was compared with a standard bisphenol A epoxy resin (DGEBA). Due to the combination of phosphorus and nitrogen in the main chain, the TEBA-DDM shows superior flame retardancy. Compared with DGEBA-DDM, LOI of TEBA-DDM increased from 25.8% to 42.3%, UL-94 test rating from no rating to V-0 rating, self-extinguishing within 3s. The peak heat release rate (PHRR) in the cone calorimetry test decreased by 67%. total heat release (THR) and total smoke generation (TSP) decreased by 27% and 35%, respectively. In addition, the flame retardant mechanism of TEBA epoxy thermosets was researched by FTIR, residual char photograph, SEM, TG-IR analysis and Raman spectroscopy . Meanwhile, TEBA-DDM and DGEBA-DDM have comparable mechanical properties .

With the improvement of medical and health care level in our society, the demand for antibacterial materials is increasing. In this work, we prepared the antibacterial materials by loading silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on the dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) with in-situ synthesis method. DAC was prepared by pretreating cellulose fiber with sodium metaperiodate (NaIO 4 ) to convert the hydroxyl group into aldehyde group, and then reacted with silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ) to obtain AgNPs loaded on DAC. UV–Vis results show that the characteristic absorption peak of AgNPs at 428 nm appeared in the AgNPs-loaded-DAC. It was observed by SEM that the spherical AgNPs were distributed uniformly on the DAC surface without obvious flocculation. The color of DAC was not changed significantly, indicating that a small amount of AgNPs was loaded. In addition, sodium citrate (Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 ) was added in the reaction of DAC and AgNO 3 and its effect on the formation of AgNPs was studied. The results demonstrated that the color of DAC turned deeper and finally dark yellow with reaction time extended. When the reaction time was 60 h, the spherical AgNPs were gradually grown and transformed into triangular prism on the DAC surface. The antibacterial properties of AgNPs showed inhibition zones of 4.90 mm and 7.35 mm (60 h) against Gram-negative ( E. coli ) and Gram-positive ( S. aureus ), respectively, which increased by 40.00% and 14.85% compared with spherical AgNPs (2.5 h) obtained without Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 . The research of AgNPs-loaded cellulose-based materials promotes the development prospect of new nano-antibacterial materials. Graphical abstract

In this work, two ceramizable phenolic adhesives were prepared using ZrSi 2 particles or ZrSi 2 /B 4 C mix particles as the inorganic fillers. The thermal stability, bonding strength , microstructure and phase composition of the adhesives were investigated by TGA , shear strength of Al 2 O 3 joints, SEM, EDS , XRD and XPS . The results show that these two adhesives have different bonding performances and ceramicization evolutions above 600 °C in air due to the addition of the second phase particles B 4 C. The bonding strength of ZrSi 2 /B 4 C modified phenolic adhesive after treatment at 1200 ℃ can be as high as 36.6 MPa, while the bonding strength of ZrSi 2 modified phenolic adhesive under the same conditions is only 17.5 MPa. B 4 C undergoes oxidation reaction before ZrSi 2 , and the oxidation product B 2 O 3 liquid phase not only reacts with ZrSi 2 to form oxidation-resistant ZrB 2 , but also can dissolve the high temperatures defects of the adhesive and chemically bond with the Al 2 O 3 substrates at the interface.

The pretreatment of cathode material before leaching is crucial in the spent lithium-ion battery hydro-metallurgical recycling. Here research demonstrates that in-situ reduction pretreatment could dramatically improve the leaching efficiencies for valuable metals from cathodes. Specifically, calcination under 600 °C without oxygen using alkali treated cathode can induce in-situ reduction and collapse of oxygen framework, which is ascribed to the carbon inherently contained in the sample and promote the following efficient leaching without external reductants. The leaching efficiencies of Li, Mn, Co and Ni can remarkably reach 100%, 98.13%, 97.27% and 97.37% respectively. Characterization methods, such as XRD, XPS and SEM-EDS, were employed and revealed that during in-situ reduction, high valence metals such as Ni 3+ , Co 3+ , Mn 4+ can be effectively reduced to lower valence states, conducive to subsequent leaching reactions. Moreover, leaching processes of Ni, Co and Mn fit well with the film diffusion control model, and the reaction barrier is in accordance with the order of Ni, Co and Mn. In comparison, it is observed that Li was leached with higher efficiency regardless of the various pretreatments. Lastly, an integral recovery process has been proposed and economic assessment demonstrates that in-situ reduction pretreatment increases the benefit with a negligible cost increase.
