In order to improve thermal conductivity, energy performance, and combustion performance of the aluminum-containing thermite, nanocarbon materials were added to thermite. Aluminum/molybdenum and trioxide/nanocarbon materials (Al/MoO3/NCM) were fabricated by electrostatic spinning technology. The Al and MoO3particles of the nAl/MoO3/NCM thermite are much smaller than nitrocellulose (NC); thus, the two components can be better attached to NC fibers. Results on thermal conductivity demonstrated that the addition of NCM can improve the thermal conductivity of Al/MoO3, and the addition of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) has a more significant impact on thermal conductivity. Energy performance analysis results indicated that the energy performance of Al/MoO3/NCM thermite spinning is the best when the value of combustion oxygen equivalent ratio (Φ) is 0.90–1.00. The combustion performance results show that the addition of NCM can significantly increase the combustion rate of thermites, and the addition of RGO improves its combustion rate the most, followed by carbon nanotubes (CNT) and nanoflake graphite (NFG) being the lowest. By changing the shape of the Al/MoO3/NCM charge and the internal composition of the charge, the sensitivity of the agent can be adjusted, and the matching performance and use performance of the electric igniter can be improved.Keywords:Al/MoO3/NCM;electrostatic spinning;thermal conductivity;energy performance;combustion performance

A turn-on fluorescent sensing platform based on an ultralow concentration of Al-metal organic frameworks for the detection of aflatoxin B 1 has been developed for the first time. This fluorescence turn-on sensor exhibits the largest fluorescence enhancement (or quenching) constant value of 179404 M −1 among all luminescence-based chemical sensors reported till date. Moreover, the sensor afforded a rapid detection of aflatoxin B 1 , with a linear response in the concentration range of 0.05–9.61 μM and a low detection limit of 11.67 ppb. Additionally, the fabricated sensor showed good repeatability, reproducibility, stability, and selectivity. Most importantly, the practical application of this sensor has been demonstrated by detecting aflatoxin B 1 in complex tea samples with low relative standard deviation (≤7.72%; n = 3) and satisfactory recoveries. In summary, the proposed method has great potential as a simple, sensitive and selective strategy for monitoring aflatoxin B 1 in food samples.

W-type hexaferrites were discovered in the 1950s and are of interest for their potential applications. In this context, many researchers have conducted studies on the partial substitution of Fe sites in order to modify their electric and magnetic properties. In this study, W-type SrYb hexaferrites using Al3+as substitutes for Fe3+sites with the nominal composition Sr0.85Yb0.15Zn1.5Co0.5AlxFe16−xO27(0.00 ≤ x ≤ 1.25) were successfully synthesized via the two-step calcination method. The microstructures, spectral bands of characteristic functional groups, morphologies, and magnetic parameters of the prepared samples were characterized using XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDX, and VSM. The XRD results showed that, compared with the standard patterns for the W-type hexaferrite, the W-type SrYb hexaferrites with the Al content (x) of 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 1.25 were a single-W-type hexaferrite phase. SEM images showed the flakes and hexagonal grains of W-type hexaferrites with various Al content (x). The saturation magnetization (Ms) and magneton number (nB) decreased with Al content (x) from 0.00 to 1.25. The remanent magnetization (Mr) and coercivity (Hc) decreased with Al content (x) from 0.00 to 0.25. Additionally, when the Al content (x) ≥ 0.25,MrandHcincreased with the increase in the Al content (x). The magnetic anisotropy field (Ha) and first anisotropy constant (K1) increased with the Al content (x) increasing from 0.00 to 1.25. Al-substituted W-type SrYb hexaferrites with soft magnetic behavior, highMs, and lowerHcmay be used as microwave-absorbing materials.Keywords:two-step calcination method;W-type hexaferrites;magnetic properties;X-ray diffraction

It is a green and environment-friendly strategy to use biomass to assist the synthesis of catalysts and use the prepared catalysts for biomass utilization. In this study, aluminum-rich silicon-phosphorus-aluminum nanosheet (Al-SPAN) was synthesized with biomass amino acids as additives for catalytic transfer hydrogenation of ethyl levulinate to γ-valerolactone. Compared with commercial Al 2 O 3 , Al-SPAN showed greatly improved catalytic performance for the reaction. The conversion of ethyl levulinate was increased by 47 % and the yield of γ-valerolactone was increased by 52 %. The effects of different alcohol on the reaction properties were investigated, with isopropanol used as a safe and efficient hydrogen source. The catalyst has good stability with little change in reaction performance after five cycles.

Micro-propulsion underwater technology has been an extensively concerned topic in advanced marine energy systems because of its wide prospects in high-precision prospecting and positioning. Wherein, the design and selection of propellant in energy-supply systems are the key issues to greatly explore its future application. Here, the hydrophobic thermite sticks which contain hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene nanoparticles and modified aluminum coated with 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane shells, were fabricated via a simple direct-writing approach. The modified thermite sticks exhibit stable underwater combustion and self-sustained propagation with a small diameter size (0.94 ± 0.05 mm). In-situ observation shows that the underwater reaction process could be divided into three steps: laser-induction, organic decomposition-dissolution, and thermite reaction. The aging results indicate that the thermite sticks demonstrate an excellent storage stability wherever in air or underwater environments. Simultaneously, it is found that its critical energy required to sustain stable underwater combustion is higher than that in air. Most notably, it not only can be used as the fuels for controllable miniature underwater propulsion, but also can be applied as the energy-delivery materials to expand thrust capacity of vehicles by igniting higher impulse explosives, such as CL-20.

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors show great potential in biochemical molecular detection due to the advantages of low background noise, high sensitivity, and easy integration. However, the current PEC glucose biosensors are subject to the deficiencies of the relatively large limit of detection, small detectable range of concentration, and requirement of an operation voltage. Herein, we construct an unbiased glucose biosensor both in three- and two-electrode configurations using a glucose oxidase (GOx)-modified Schottky junction comprised of Au nanoparticle (NP)-decorated TiO2-coated Al films. A wide detectable range of concentration (0.3–104 μM) is achieved at relatively zero bias versus the reference electrode in a three-electrode configuration under AM 1.5G illumination along with a fitted sensitivity of 3780 μA mM–1 cm–2 (in the concentration range of 0.3–1.0 μM) and a limit of detection down to 0.05 μM. The photocurrents corresponding to typical interfering substances (e.g., uric acid and ascorbic acid) are less than 10% of that to glucose. Moreover, the constructed sensor achieves almost no attenuation in photocurrent under light ON/OFF circular irradiation for 30 min and shows a photocurrent around 92% of the initial value after 30-day storage in air at room temperature. The satisfactory sensing performance is ascribed to the following three aspects: (1) the optical absorption is enhanced due to the formation of a plane-parallel resonance cavity and the reduced band gap of the TiO2 material, (2) the separation and extraction of the photogenerated carriers are facilitated due to the Al doping and the embedded Schottky junction, and (3) the carrier transfer from the photoelectrode surfaces into the electrolyte is boosted because of the Au NPs and nanostructured GOx decoration. This work provides an alternative route to prepare high-performance and self-powered glucose sensors for diabetes diagnosis.

Novel alumina-supported Ni-Mo hydrodesulfurization (HDS) catalysts were prepared via assembly of Mo and Al precursors induced by tetradecylamine (TDA). Compared with conventional impregnation, this assembly method improves Mo dispersion, weakens metal-support interactions, enhances Ni modification at MoS 2 edge sites, and produces more NiMoS phases on Al 2 O 3 . The optimal NiMoS microstructure was obtained by modulating the TDA/Mo ratio in the assembly. A microstructure-activity correlation indicated that the S vacancies at the NiMoS corner sites favored σ-adsorption and direct desulfurization of 4,6-dimethylbenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT), and those at the NiMoS edge sites promoted C-S breaking in hydrogenated derivatives of 4,6-DMDBT. Among these catalysts, NiTMo-2.0/Al 2 O 3 , which had the most corner and edge S vacancies, exhibited the highest reaction rate constant of 5.89 × 10 −7 mol·g −1 ·s −1 and the highest desulfurization ratio of 99.5% in HDS of 4,6-DMDBT.

A novel quaternary ammonium hydroxide , p-Xylylene-bis(N-methylpiperidinium hydroxide) (XBMPOH), was prepared and used as an organic structure-directing agent (OSDA) for the syntheses of BEC zeolites . Both Si,Ge- BEC and Al incorporated BEC (Al- BEC ) zeolites were successfully synthesized. In comparison with commonly used OSDA (tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TEAOH)), XBMPOH was more suitable for the crystallization of BEC structure, especially in the Al containing system. Al- BEC zeolites were directly synthesized at lower germanium and OSDA content, in a wider (Si + Ge)/Al ratio range (20 to ∞ vs. 50 to ∞) and shorter time (6 h vs. 12 h). For the first time, Al- BEC zeolites were used as a solid acid to catalyze the alkylation of benzene with 1-dodecene, and showed significant catalytic performance. After an acidic treatment procedure, the catalytic performance was further improved due to the removal of non-framework Al with accompanied exposure of framework Al.

Upgrading carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into valuable products is a highly promising strategy of artificial carbon cycle. In this study, a series of in situ reduced CuMgAl layered double hydroxides (R-CuMgAl-LDHs) composites were synthesized, in which Cu nanoparticles were effectively dispersed and anchored on MgAl-LDHs with formation of Cu + and Cu 0 species. The optimized R-Cu 1.5 Mg 1.5 Al 1 -LDH exhibited excellent catalytic performance for the carboxylative cyclization of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol with CO 2 (turnover number of 243) under mild conditions. The layered structure of LDH stabilized the active Cu species with high dispersion, enhancing the catalytic efficiency of this carboxylative cyclization reaction. Simultaneously, the dual-activation of both CO 2 and propargylic alcohol by Cu 0 /Cu + species generated on the surface of LDH contributed significantly to the catalytic efficiency enhancement. Furthermore, R-Cu 1.5 Mg 1.5 Al 1 -LDH catalyzed the reaction of a wide range of terminal or internal propargyl alcohols with CO 2 , yielding various functionalized α-alkylene cyclic carbonates. Finally, a reasonable reaction mechanism was put forward according to the comprehensive analysis.

To improve the hydrothermal durability of Cu-SSZ-13 selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst, a thin Al 2 O 3 modification layer was coated on the external surface of Cu-SSZ-13 by a chemical liquid deposition (CLD) method. The high-temperature SCR activity of the Al-modified Cu-SSZ-13 can be maintained upon 750–800 °C hydrothermal aging, and over-oxidation of NH 3 is largely inhibited. Based on H 2 -TPR and EPR results, it is revealed that CuAl 2 O 4 -like species forms upon Al modification and converts further to CuAlO 2 -like species during aging, while the accumulation of CuO-like species is inhibited. The high affinity of Al-containing species ( i.e. , Al 2 O 3 and CuAl 2 O 4 -like species) with Cu(OH) 2 is suggested by DFT calculations, indicating that Cu(OH) 2 detached from ion-exchange sites are captured by Al to form CuAlO 2 -like species instead of CuO-like species. The passivation of detached Cu species by coated Al leads to somewhat weakened low-temperature SCR activity, but successfully preserves the high-temperature SCR performance upon aging, which can be applied to high-temperature SCR scenarios.

NH 2 -MIL-53(Al)/CdS p-n heterojunctions are fabricated via facile two-step hydrothermal method. The formation of p-n heterojunctions could form built-in field, which favors spatial charge separation. The resultant NH 2 -MIL-53(Al)/CdS p-n heterojunctions with narrowed band gap extend the photoresponse, and have a high specific surface area of 417.7 m 2 g −1 , and a narrow pore size of 8.8 nm. Under visible light irradiation, the photocatalytic efficiency for reduction of Cr(VI) and removal of refractory pesticide trichlorophenol is up to 99.23 and 98.85 %, respectively. The photocatalytic oxygen evolution is also as high as 563.6 μmol g −1 h −1 . The excellent photocatalytic activity can be ascribed to the efficient p-n heterojunctions accelerating charge transfer and favoring spatial charge separation, and the special mesoporous structure supplying adequate surface-active sites and facilitating mass transfer. This facile strategy opens up new insights for fabricating other p-n heterojunctions photocatalysts with efficient solar energy conversion.

Agglomeration behavior of TiB 2 particles in 5%TiB 2 /Al-4.5%Cu composites (all compositions are in wt.% unless otherwise specified) is studied by adding different content of Mg to improve its strength and ductility, a widely used in-situ molten salt reaction process is used to produce the composites. The results show that addition of Mg could not only significantly segregate TiB 2 particles but also further refine the α-Al grains and then improve the mechanical properties of the composites on the basis of TiB 2 particles. Here, 0.5% Mg is considered the optimum mass fraction for dispersion, refinement, and modification of particles based on the results of investigation. The yield strength (YS), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), elastic Young’s modulus (EM), and Vicker’s hardness (VHN) of the composites in T6 heat treatment are increased to 375 MPa, 486 MPa, 88 GPa, and 167 HV - an improvement of 21.8%, 16.5%, 20.9%, and 9.4%, respectively, versus the original TiB 2 /Al-4.5%Cu composite (308 MPa, 417 MPa, 63 GPa, and 153 HV). The elongation of the composite is improved by 20.9%. These merits are mainly attributed to addition of Mg, which increases the surface-spread coefficient of TiB 2 particles by reducing the surface tension of the Al melt, thereby improving the wettability .
