Zinc-based materials have been extensively researched as biodegradable bone repair materials in recent years, but their low degradation rate and limited bioactivity need to be further improved. In this study, a new-type dual-sized macro-micro porous Zinc-Magnesium-β-tricalcium phosphate (DMMP Zn-Mg-β-TCP) scaffolds were designed and fabricated by vacuum heating-press sintering. The mechanical properties, degradation behaviors, in vitro biocompatibility, in vivo osteogenesis, and biological safety of the scaffolds were systematically evaluated. The results show that DMMP Zn-Mg-β-TCP has suitable mechanical properties, degradation properties, and excellent osteogenic properties. The compressive yield strength range of the scaffolds is 12.90–25.46 MPa, and the elastic modulus range is 0.31–0.44 GPa, meeting the mechanical properties required for implant materials in cancellous bone. In vitro degradation tests showed that the corrosion rate of the scaffolds ranges from 2.25 to 2.61 mm/y. Furthermore, the scaffolds exhibited excellent in vitro cell compatibility. After a 24-week animal experiment, the scaffold demonstrated excellent osteogenic capacity during bone healing, while maintaining biomechanical stability throughout its degradation process. In summary, the DMMP Zn-Mg-β-TCP has the potential to become a novel biodegradable bone implant material.

In this study, a series of non-equimolar ratio high-entropy rock-salt-type oxides (Mg, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn)O were prepared a high-temperature solid-phase method with tailored cation ratios, and their physical phase compositions and electrochemical properties were investigated. The result shows that (Mg, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn)O with varying elemental ratios form single-phase rock-salt structures when they are sintered at 1100°C under non-equimolar conditions. These oxides display a uniformly elemental distribution and irregular spherical particle morphology. With the increase in Ni or Co content, the electrochemical performance is significantly improved. Compared to the other six high-entropy oxides, (Mg0.1625, Co0.1625, Ni0.35, Cu0.1625, Zn0.1625)O powders have demonstrated excellent energy storage properties and rate capability, achieving a specific capacitance of 384.3 F/g at 1 A/g and a coulombic efficiency of 88.9%. These results demonstrate that non-equimolar (Mg, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn)O high-entropy rock-salt-type oxides have promising potential as advanced electrode materials. Graphical

The great challenge in the aldol condensation of tailored fermentation products (acetone–butanol–ethanol, ABE) into energy intensive fuels is to develop a suitable catalyst with high activity and low–cost. In this study, Co, Ni, and Co–Ni supported on Mg–Al oxide catalysts were prepared and their pore diameters were enlarged via adding active carbon as a hard template into Mg–Al hydrotalcite. During the aldol condensation reaction, the catalyst activity was enhanced after enlarging the pore diameter and Co–Ni bimetal supported catalyst presented the highest activity, which was resulted from that the electron transfer between Co and Ni in Co–Ni alloy enhanced the dehydrogenation activity and large pore lowered the mass transfer resistance. After optimizing the reaction conditions, acetone conversion and the total selectivity of C 5 –C 11 desired products in the aldol condensation of ABE reached up to 76% and 90%, respectively. The stability study showed that the activity was decreased with the increase of reaction number because of the oxidation of metallic Co and Ni, but this could be solved via a simple hydrogen reduction method.

Rechargeable Mg/Li hybrid ion batteries with Mg 2+ /Li + double-salt electrolytes and safe Mg anodes are a viable option for large-scale energy storage. Nevertheless, achieving the desired reasonable electrochemical performance remains a great challenge due to the capacity limitations of conventional Li-intercalation cathodes. To mitigate this limitation, the 3D oxygenated MXene Ti 3 C 2 @CoS 2 /FeS 2 (denoted as o-Ti 3 C 2 @CoS 2 , o-Ti 3 C 2 @FeS 2 ) with both dual-storage mechanism and multidimensional structure to achieve the desirable storage capacity is engineered. Benefiting from the formation of special structure and interfacial chemical bonds Ti–O–Co/Ti–O–Fe, as well as the electronegative o-Ti 3 C 2 weaken the Co–S/Fe–S bonds, the o-Ti 3 C 2 @CoS 2 cathode exhibits superior capacity up to 425 mAh g −1 at 100 mA g −1 and overwhelming advantageous ultra-long life over 2,400 cycles at 500 mA g −1 . Simultaneously, the o-Ti 3 C 2 @FeS 2 also displays a high-rate capability, outstanding cycling stability, and fast diffusion kinetics. Furthermore, the conversion reaction of Mg 2+ /Li + co-intercalation and the charge storage mechanism during cycling are thoroughly clarified by systematic ex-situ characterizations and theoretical computations. This study reveals the influence of MXene electrode structure on the importance of electrochemical performance and provides guidance for the future design of high-performance MXene materials for energy storage applications.

Red-emitting phosphors are indispensable compounds which are used to achieve a warm white light in phosphor-converted white light emitting diodes (pc-WLEDs). However, the luminous efficiency and stability of red phosphors are still big challenges. In this work, we developed red-emitting double perovskite phosphors La2ATiO6:Bi3+,Mn4+ (A = Mg, Zn) (LAT:Bi3+,Mn4+) and discuss the relationship between the double perovskite phosphor structure and the luminescence performance in detail. According to the Rietveld refinement results for the La2Mg(1−w)ZnwTiO6:Bi3+,Mn4+ (0 ≤ w ≤ 1) (LM(1−w)ZwT:Bi3+,Mn4+) solid solution, the proposed mechanism of the spectral adjustment is ascribed to the appearance of the phase transition, which results in a lower local structural symmetry of the [LaO12] polyhedron and the variation of the crystal field environment for Mn4+. Notably, this is the first time that the influence of the local structure variation on the luminescence tuning in double perovskite structure phosphors has been revealed, and this could offer guidance for the development of new phosphor system. By designing Mg2+/Zn2+ cation substitution, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) is remarkably enhanced beyond 20%. In addition, we succeeded in achieving a Bi3+/Mn4+ co-doped energy transfer in the double perovskite structure phosphors. Owing to the Bi3+ → Mn4+ energy transfer in LAT, the red emission of the Mn4+ ions could be dramatically enhanced. The energy transfer efficiency of LAT:Bi3+,Mn4+ eventually exceeded 90%. The IQE and the thermal stability were all enhanced by around 30% compared to the non-co-doped samples, respectively. These results indicate that the Bi3+ → Mn4+ energy transfer strategy could play a pivotal role in the development of highly efficient red-emitting phosphors. The performance of the fabricated pc-WLEDs devices indicates that LAT:Bi3+,Mn4+ could be a promising red phosphor for near ultraviolet (n-UV) based warm pc-WLEDs.

Neutral organic phosphate/FeCl 3 systems are widely employed for lithium extraction from high Mg/Li ratio brines; however, extractant degradation under prolonged operational conditions constrains process sustainability. This study investigates the degradation behavior of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and trioctyl phosphate (TOP) during lithium extraction, examining the influence of key process parameters (HCl/NaOH concentration, temperature, and FeCl 3 concentration) and evaluating the impact of degradation products on extraction performance. Single-factor experiments demonstrated that TOP exhibited superior stability compared to TBP, attributable to its longer carbon chains and greater steric hindrance. Both extractants displayed poorer acid resistance, whereas elevated FeCl 3 concentrations significantly suppressed degradation. On the basis of these findings, optimal process conditions are recommended: minimal HCl usage, NaOH concentration ≤ 4.0 mol·L −1 , and temperature ≤ 35 °C. Qualitative and quantitative 31 P NMR analyses confirmed that the primary degradation product of TBP was dibutyl phosphate (DBP), while that of TOP was di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA). Subsequent single-stage extraction experiments revealed that both DBP and D2EHPA diminished lithium extraction efficiency and Li/Mg separation factors, with D2EHPA exerting a more pronounced adverse effect. Across the concentration range of 0–0.5 mol·L −1 , D2EHPA reduced lithium extraction efficiency by 20%, compared to an 11% decrease caused by DBP. This study addresses a critical gap in understanding how extractant degradation affects long-term lithium extraction performance, and supplies feasible operational limits and formulation references for the industrial design and steady running of lithium separation processes.

Synergistic extraction mechanism in TBP system was investigated. • Synergistic extraction system performs better at low lithium concentration. • TBP-DEC system exhibits higher β Li/Mg than other synergistic systems. • Reducing O's electric potential in C O of synergistic agents enhance lithium selectivity. This study investigates the extraction and selective separation of Li from solutions with a high Mg/Li ratio based on a synergistic extractant system involving tributyl phosphate (TBP). Different synergistic agents were investigated, including ethyl acetate (EA), butyl acetate (BA), diethyl carbonate (DEC), methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK), N,N-Diethylacetamide and N,N-di(1-methylheptyl)acetamide (N503). The result showed that TBP-DEC synergistic extraction system achieved the highest lithium extraction rate of 71.4% and lithium magnesium separation factor of 160, when the concentration of Li = 0.50 g/L and Mg/Li ratio = 200. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis revealed that TBP acted as the primary extraction agent for lithium extraction, while the O atom in the C O group of the synergistic agent participates in coordination with lithium. Additionally, the lithium extraction rate of the synergistic extractant system increased with the integrated peak area of the P O stretching vibration. Mechanism analysis reveals that increase of the negative charge density on the O atom in the C O group and reduction of the intermolecular steric hindrance of the synergistic agent can enhance the lithium selectivity of TBP.

Intensive rice cultivation faces the dual challenges of low nitrogen use efficiency and heavy metal pollution risk. In this study, a previously developed magnesium–iron layered double hydroxide-loaded biochar (Mg/Fe-LDH@BC) composite was evaluated in paddy soil to determine its effects on nitrogen retention, heavy metal activity, crop growth and bacterial community organization. With the addition of the 1% Mg/Fe-LDH@BC, NH 4 + −N retention increased by 41.7% while NO 3 - −N accumulation decreased by 9.8%. Meanwhile, NH 3 volatilization decreased by 24.2%, and N 2 O emissions were reduced by over 50%. These changes were accompanied by increased rice biomass and grain dry mass, together with decreased concentrations of multiple geochemically reactive metals. Microbial community analysis showed that this material reshaped the topology of the bacterial co-occurrence network. The 1% Mg/Fe-LDH@BC material formed the most complex network (1446 nodes and 11,063 edges) and shifted key species from slow-growing groups (such as Syntrophus ) to metabolically active groups associated with carbon, iron, and sulfur cycles (e.g., Streptomyces , Pelobacter , and Thiobacillus ). This network exhibited both high connectivity and a highly modular structure, indicating a more interconnected and compartmentalized pattern of microbial associations. Furthermore, the porous structure of BC may create micro-anaerobic niches that support the survival of anaerobic taxa (e.g., Anaerolinea ). Although the LDH can directly immobilize heavy metals through physicochemical mechanisms, sulfur cycle-related bacteria (e.g., Desulfatitalea ) were identified as key species in the network, suggesting that microorganisms may contribute to in situ heavy metal immobilization through sulfide production.

A series of Mg-Al LDH-based photocatalysts were synthesized via a one-pot steam-assisted method, including pure Mg-Al LDH (MA), Zn-In ion-exchange-modified Mg-Al LDH (MAZ), BiOCl-loaded pristine Mg-Al LDH (MAB), and Zn-In-modified Mg-Al LDH co-loaded with TiO2and BiOCl (MA/Zn-In/TiO2/BiOCl, MAZB). The one-pot synthesis facilitated the in situ intercalation and uniform loading of BiOCl/TiO2/Zn-In, while Zn2+/In3+modified the MA layers via ion exchange, leading to an expansion of the interlayer spacing. The innovation of this work is reflected in two aspects: first, all raw materials are added via a one-pot strategy to achieve in situ preparation of modified hydrotalcite; second, this synthetic route features simple post-treatment without complicated washing, pressure filtration, and other tedious operations. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and N2adsorption–desorption isotherms. The bismuth chloride oxide/TiO2/LDHs exhibited a layered structure, with the active components uniformly distributed between the layers and on the MA surface. Under simulated sunlight irradiation, MAZB achieved 97.5% degradation of 20 mg/L MB within 120 min, with an apparent rate constant of 0.0297 min−1, which is 7.2 times, 2.4 times, and 2.9 times that of MA, MAZ, and MAB, respectively. The degradation rate of MAZB still remained at 89.5% after five cycles, demonstrating excellent stability and reusability. Compared with traditional hydrothermal methods, this steam-assisted system features mild reaction conditions (180 °C, atmospheric pressure), sodium-free raw materials, no washing requirement, and zero waste discharge, showing prominent green advantages.

In this work, a series of near-infrared persistent luminescent phosphors CaSnO 3 :Bi,xMg 2 + were prepared via Mg 2+ co-doping, and the effects of Mg²⁺ doping on the structure, luminescence properties, Bi valence state, and defects of the phosphors were systematically studied. The results show that at low doping concentrations, Mg²⁺ primarily enters the CaSnO 3 lattice in an interstitial manner, leading to lattice expansion. The interstitial incorporation of Mg²⁺ introduces positive charges, which promotes the reduction of Bi³ ⁺ to Bi²⁺, thereby increasing the concentration of Bi²⁺ and enhancing the near-infrared photoluminescence efficiency of the phosphors. Moreover, Mg²⁺ codoping modified the defect distribution in the phosphor, which further enhances the near-infrared persistent luminescence intensity. Under the optimal Mg 2+ doping concentration, the photoluminescence intensity of the phosphor increased by 0.8 times, and the initial persistent luminescence brightness improved by 6.3 times compared to the Bi singly-doped sample. This study not only provides a new near-infrared persistent luminescent phosphor but also offers a novel strategy for regulating the valence state of Bi ions through interstitial codoping to prepare Bi 2+ -based near-infrared persistent phosphors.

The key to lithium extraction from brine lies in achieving efficient Li + /Mg 2+ separation, which imposes stringent requirements on the precision and efficiency of separation technologies. Among existing techniques, nanofiltration (NF) membranes stand out as a critical approach due to their superior ion-sieving capabilities, yet conventional NF membranes still face challenges in improving Li + /Mg 2+ separation ratios. In this study, the nonionic surfactant, Sorbitan monooleate dehydrate (Span80) was introduced to regulate the diffusion behavior of piperazine (PIP) molecules by reducing interfacial tension. Results from molecular dynamics simulations, ultraviolet spectroscopy experiments, and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy analysis revealed that Span80 enhances the uniform diffusion of PIP molecules at the interface, optimizes the membrane pore size distribution, and significantly improves Li + /Mg 2+ separation performance. The fabricated NF membrane achieved a Li + /Mg 2+ separation ratio of 94.28 under a Mg 2+ /Li + mass ratio of 100:1. This study introduces an innovative strategy for tailoring interfacial reactions via surfactant modulation, providing new insights into the design of high-performance NF membranes for lithium extraction from brine.

Despite the outstanding lightweight potential of Mg alloys, their poor corrosion resistance significantly limits their practical applications in engineering. As a more sustainable alternative to solvent-based resins, waterborne polyurethane (WPU) coatings offer notable environmental and safety benefits, including low VOC emissions, non-flammability, and ease of application. However, the inherent microporous defects formed during the curing process, coupled with the absence of self-healing capabilities, notably undermine their protective performance. In this study, a smart hybrid coating was developed to improve the corrosion protection of WPU on Mg alloys. The coating combines benzotriazole (BTA)-loaded mesoporous polydopamine (mPDA) microspheres and hydroxylated boron nitride (OH-BN) within the WPU matrix, achieving active-passive synergistic protection through dual pH/light responsiveness. The mPDA enhances OH-BN dispersion within the matrix and simultaneously acts as an intelligent carrier for the controlled release of BTA under acidic or light-irradiated conditions. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that, after 6 h of immersion in NaCl solution (pH = 3), the damaged composite coating retained an impedance modulus of 2.37 × 10 5 Ω·cm 2 at 0.1 Hz, and maintained a value of 1.97 × 10 5 Ω·cm 2 under light irradiation-28 and 2.8 times higher, respectively, than pure WPU. These results confirm the coating's outstanding corrosion resistance and stimulus-responsive self-healing capability, which arise from the synergistic effects of the OH-BN barrier and BTA release under pH and light stimuli. This work presents a sustainable and intelligent corrosion protection strategy for Mg alloys in harsh environments.
