Developing highly efficient and stable catalysts toward advanced oxidation technology is the key to achieve industrial peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for pollution degradation. Perovskite-type oxide catalysts show high activity and stability for PMS activation, yet the small specific surface area of perovskite catalysts limits the increase of catalytic performance. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely used as the templates/precursors to prepare high specific surface area nanomaterials. In this study, two kinds of high surface area perovskites LaCoO 3 and LaMnO 3 were firstly fabricated with MOFs as templates. Benefiting from the extraordinary skeleton structure of MOFs, well-defined architecture and porous perovskite catalysts show superior catalytic performance towards PMS activation for the degradation of 2, 4-dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP), with a 99.8% degradation of 2, 4-DCP in 25 min for LaCoO 3 catalyst. Moreover, the LaCoO 3 catalysts exhibit long-term stability with a slight loss of catalytic activity during 3 times recycled experiments. This study not only developed high activity catalysts for PMS activation, but also expanded the MOFs applications for environment and energy.

Graphical Caught on film : Tris[4-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)phenyl]amine was obtained by a green synthetic route and its solution-processable nanoporous polymer was used to fabricate an efficient all-solid-state electrochromic supercapacitor. A new green synthetic route to tris[4-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)phenyl]amine (TEPA) monomer has been developed and the molecular structure of TEPA has been determined by using single-crystal XRD. Solution-processable nanoporous poly{tris[4-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)phenyl]amine} (PTEPA) is prepared by a chemical oxidative polymerization in a microemulsion. Based on the distorted structure of TEPA in the solid state, it is proposed that dendritic PTEPA has a distorted 3 D conformation with multiple twisted channels and pores that are narrowed and blocked by bifurcation and distortion of PTEPA, which is consistent with the observed hierarchical pore structure. As a cathode material, PTEPA exhibits a discharge capacity of 89.5 mAh g −1 in the initial cycle with a highly sloping two-stage discharge curve and relatively stable cycling performance. Beyond its excellent energy storage properties, PTEPA also shows relatively good electrochromic performance. Furthermore, an efficient all-solid-state electrochromic supercapacitor (ECSC) with good electrochromic performance and high energy storage capacity (13.3 mF cm −2 ) is assembled from PTEPA and nanoporous graphene films. During charge–discharge processes, the color of the ECSC changes between yellow-green and steel blue. Thus, the energy storage level of the ECSC can be monitored by the corresponding color changes. The fabricated ECSC may have practical applications, for example, in self-powered electrochromic smart windows.

One of the key challenges in preparing metal nanoparticle (NP)-based heterogeneous catalysts is to design host substrates with abundant high affinity anchoring sites to address the problem that metal NPs, due to their high surface energy, are easily deactivated by migration-aggregation during the catalytic process. Herein, we demonstrate that two-dimensional nitrogen-containing covalent organic frameworks can be used as host substrates with strong anchoring points to create stable and highly dispersed metal NP catalysts. Highly dispersed ultrafine Ag NPs (2.93 nm) with narrow size distribution have been successfully prepared by utilizing the abundant nitrogen-containing functional groups in the ordered channels of NCOF crystals. The prepared AgNPs@NCOF exhibits superior catalytic activity toward the reduction of 4-NPh. In addition, the AgNPs@NCOF is highly stable and easily reused with no significant loss of catalytic activity. The unique structure of the NCOF provides favorable nucleation sites for Ag NPs, confines the space for size-controlled growth of Ag NPs, and binds Ag NPs tightly through the interface interaction. Our work provides a promising strategy for immobilizing ultrafine metal NPs on porous supports. We hope that metal-based heterogeneous catalysts prepared by further diversification of different COFs and different metal NPs can be used in industrially important transformation reactions.

Metal-free catalysts with environmental friendless, cost-competitiveness and less susceptibility to leaching and poisoning over metal-based catalysts, have revolutionized in the catalysis domain. In this respect, we herein report the first application of cheap and abundant pumpkin-derived N -doped porous carbon for the reduction of 2-methyl-4-nitrophenol assisted by NaBH 4 . The obtained catalyst is cost-competitive, efficient and robust, with an attractive mass-normalized rate constant of 4.73 s −1 g −1 and good recycling performance. Systematical analyses demonstrate that the 2-methyl-4-nitrophenol reduction reaction catalyzed by the N -doped carbon proceeds through the Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics and the performance enhancement benefits from the strong adsorption and activation of the substrates induced by the electronic modulation in the carbon framework via N -doping. This study opens up new avenues for the high-value use of pumpkin as well as the development of metal-free strategy in more catalytic applications.

Developing a simple and mild one-step method for the preparation of bimetallic nanomaterials with both free-standing features and excellent catalytic performance is highly desirable but remains technically difficult. Herein, a facile liquid-liquid interface route is exploited to grow the wheat-like PdAg nanostructures at the interface of chloroform and water under mild conditions without the use of any surfactants and supports. To implement this scheme, Na 2 PdCl 4 and AgNO 3 as precursors are dissolved in aqueous phase and α-naphthol as reducing agent in chloroform phase to build up the interfacial reaction system. At 40°C, the PdAg nanowheats are orderly grown, fused and assembled by many newly generated nanoparticles at the interface region, which have uniform shapes with the length of about 340 nm and the diameter of about 45 nm, abundant defects and strong electronic interaction between Au and Pd, as well as free-standing features. In the hydrogenation reaction of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, PdAg-1 nanowheats exhibit excellent catalytic activity, selectivity and durability. Within 60.0 min of reaction at 35°C under atmospheric pressure, 99.8 % conversion of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 99.5 % selectivity toward 4-aminobenzaldehyde can be realized. After 5 cycles, 99.4 % conversion of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 98.0 % selectivity toward 4-aminobenzaldehyde can be maintained.

The catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), a persistent environmental pollutant faces dual challenges reliance on noble metals and inefficient utilization of hydrogen radicals (H*). Meanwhile, nickel-containing sludge generated by the electroplating industry, classified as hazardous waste has long posed significant disposal conundrums. Herein, we developed a noble metal-free pyroxene-type CaNi(Si 2 O 6 ) catalyst, synthesized from electroplating sludge, that simultaneously addresses these challenges through dynamically reconstructed Ni–O–Ca interface with oxygen vacancies and interfacial electron transfer channels. Ni@Ca-195/20 establishes a self-sustaining catalytic system, achieving a remarkable conversion of 96.8% with 0.1 mM NaBH 4 and 0.05 mg catalyst, while maintaining stability over 31 cycles in low concentration regimes. Integrated characterization combined with catalytic performance evaluation reveals an interfacial electron transfer mechanism: the engineered interface enables in situ reduction of Ni 2+ generates metallic electron-deficient Ni δ+ species, enhancing 4-NP − and BH 4 − adsorption through dual-site coordination. Oxygen vacancies accelerate BH 4 − hydrolysis, while electron transfer channels sustain H* flux via Ca 2+ modulated charge equilibration. This work establishes a waste-to-functionality paradigm for designing defect-engineered catalysts while advancing sustainable remediation of nitroaromatic pollutants. Graphical The Ni-plating sludge was converted into a Ni@Ca-195/20 catalyst with abundant oxygen vacancies and Ni–O–Ca heterointerfaces via the solvothermal method, which was used to efficiently catalyze the hydrogenation reduction of 4-nitrophenol.

It is always difficult to control the growth of crystals during the formation of multiple quantum wells (MQWs) in the quasi-2D perovskite light emitting diodes (PeLEDs). In this study, we introduce the 1, 4, 7, 10-tetraoxacyclododecane ether into the quasi-2D perovskite of PEA 2 Cs n-1 Pb n Br 3n+1 to reduce the coordination rate between the phenethylamine bromide and the perovskite framework. As a result, Crown-ether assisted in-situ grown (CAIG) perovskite crystals (PCs) is grown with thick PbBr 4 layers (n > 55) during the spin-coating. For the CAIG PCs, the generation of small n phases (n = 1, 2 and 3) are significantly suppressed, resulting in almost flat energy structure with the phases of n ≥ 4. The generation rate of the excited states of the n ≥ 4 remains ultra-fast within ~0.77 ps even without the MQWs structures; however the decay of excited states becomes much slower. The CAIG PCs film has lower trap density , therefore promoting the carrier mobility , carrier diffusion length and the photoluminescence quantum yield . The PeLEDs based on the CAIG PCs film achieves the maximum luminescence of ~27562 cd m −2 and the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of ~16.1%. The half-lifetime of the luminescence and the EQE measured in the atmosphere (a relative humidity of ~52% at 27 ℃) are exceeding ~17 and 43 h, respectively. Hence, it can be recognized as the most ambient stable device based on the PEA 2 Cs n-1 Pb n Br 3n+1 perovskite.

Pattern recognition receptors on immune cells play essential roles in detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns and initiating downstream immune defense cascades. Toll-like receptor-4, a key member of the PRR family, regulates macrophage-mediated innate immune responses; however, its dysregulation due to excessive activation often exacerbates inflammatory processes. Herein, we report a Toll-like receptor-4-targeted nano-extinguisher designed to combat acute pneumonia caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. This innovative nanoplatform integrates bacterial capture ligands, a photothermal agent, and a Toll-like receptor-4 signaling inhibitor. Upon near-infrared light irradiation, the nano-extinguisher generates localized hyperthermia, leading to bacterial death through disruption of membrane integrity. Moreover, the heat-triggered release of the Toll-like receptor-4 signaling inhibitor enables dual immunomodulation by simultaneously regulating macrophage polarization and scavenging reactive oxygen species. The nano-extinguisher significantly alleviated the pathological progression of infection-induced acute pneumonia in our experiments. By combining photothermal antibacterial activity with spatiotemporal immunomodulation, this nanoengineered system offers a promising translational strategy for the treatment of acute bacterial infections and concurrent mitigation of Toll-like receptor-4-mediated immunopathology. Statement of Significance TLR4, which is crucial for initiating innate immunity via pathogen detection, often exacerbates inflammation when hyperactivated. We developed TLR-4-targeted nano-extinguishers to combat multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa -induced pneumonia. This system integrates bacterial capturing, photothermal therapy, and TLR-4 inhibition. Photo-driven localized hyperthermia disrupts bacterial membranes while thermally releasing the inhibitor, thereby achieving simultaneous macrophage polarization modulation and reactive oxygen species scavenging, effectively mitigating infection-induced pneumonia. By integrating precision photothermal sterilization with spatiotemporal immunoregulation, our nanoengineered strategy addresses both bacterial eradication and TLR-4-mediated immunopathology, offering translational potential for the treatment of acute infections.

Utilizing micro-channel technology and meticulously regulating the differential flow rates of the oil and water phases, we successfully synthesized remarkably spherical nB/F 2602 /HNS (hexanitrostilben)microspheres, measuring approximately 200 μm in diameter. The morphological and compositional characteristics of these microspheres were thoroughly analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and laser microscopy. Meanwhile, we conducted an in-depth investigation into the catalytic effects of the microspheres on the thermal decomposition of ADN(Ammonium dinitramide)/DAP-4((C 6 H 14 N 2 )[NH4(ClO 4 ) 3 ]), employing thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) and burst point assessments. The combustion performance of ADN/DAP-4, both prior to and following the incorporation of nB/F 2602 (fluoroelastomer)/HNS microspheres, was evaluated through high-speed imaging, high-sensitivity infrared thermography, and combustion calorimetry measurements. Furthermore, this study contemplated the combustion mechanism of nB/F 2602 /HNS microspheres. The findings indicated that, after adding nB/F 2602 /HNS microspheres, the thermal decomposition activation energy of ADN/DAP-4 was significantly reduced. These results revealed that the introduction of nB/F 2602 /HNS microspheres markedly enhanced the combustion intensity of ADN/DAP-4, with the pressurization rate accelerating dramatically from 0.55 MPa/s to 3.47 MPa/s. As the burning rate escalated, the maximum combustion temperature increased from 1697°C to 1788°C, and the combustion heat surged from −4478 kJ/kg to −17593 kJ/kg. Moreover, the comparative experimental outcomes, when juxtaposed with samples based on micro-boron (μB), reveal that nano-boron (nB) exhibits a superior burning rate and combustion efficiency. Consequently, the collective findings of these experiments emphatically indicate that nB/F 2602 /HNS markedly enhances the thermolytic and combustion processes of ADN/DAP-4.

Environment-friendly process, low production cost, and simple operation are regarded as key factors for scalable kesterite photovoltaic applications. Herein a green ammonium thioglycolate (TGAm)-based aqueous solution route has been developed to deposit Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 films. It is found that sinstering in ambient air is as good as in argon, making the production process more affordable and reproducible. TGAm is more active than other alkylthiols with longer alkyl chains and has a strong coordination capability toward metal ions, which is a key factor in the dissolution of a series of metal oxides. Meanwhile, TGAm is widely used in biopharmaceuticals and hairspray, demonstrating good biological compatibility. Moreover, a low level of Ag doping can be successfully incorporated into the host lattice of the CZTSSe to form a homogeneous (Cu 1−x ,Ag x ) 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 (CAZTSSe) alloy material by this aqueous process. Benefiting from the effect of Ag doping, the initial power conversion efficiency is successfully enhanced from 5.86% ( x = 0) to 7.38% ( x = 2%).

A new adsorbent was synthesized via functionalizing nano-silica with 4-(aminomethyl) pyridine for selective recovery of gold. The adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, and BET (surface area and porosimetry analyzer). The results indicated that the maximum adsorption capacity of Au(III) was 55.5 mg/g at pH 4.0 and room temperature. The adsorption reaction was fairly rapid and reached equilibrium within 30 min. The adsorption processes of Au(III) were fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm model and adsorption kinetics of Au(III) followed the pseudo-second-order rate equation. The adsorption mechanism lies on the chelation and ion exchange between gold ions and amines/hydroxyl groups. The adsorbent had good reusability after five cycles. Moreover, 4-(aminomethyl) pyridine-Silica nanoparticles has a good selectivity in the adsorption of Au(III) from the coexisting ions. Therefore, 4-(aminomethyl) pyridine functionalized nano-silica could be of great potential as new adsorbent for the selective recovery of Au(III) from industrial effluents and waste e-products.

Lanthanide-doped Ca 3 Ln(AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 phosphors are adopted for numerous new types of applications with outstanding optical properties. Herein, the novel Ca 3 Gd(AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Dy 3+ phosphors were synthesized by the high-temperature solid-state method. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, diffuse reflection spectroscopy, and as well as photoluminescence (PL) spectra and lifetime curves are used to exemplify the resulting samples. This research explores the samples microstructure and the influence of Dy 3+ doping at the Ca and Gd sites. The PL spectrum results indicated that Ca 3 Gd(AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :Dy 3+ can be effectively excited by 349 nm UV light and emits bright white light results of Dy 3+ ions with the 4f–4f transition. The optimum doping content of the Dy 3+ in the Ca 3 Gd(AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 host samples were 7 mol%, and the concentration quenching (CQ) mechanism was mainly owing to dipole–dipole interaction. Interestingly, the Ca 3 Gd 0.93 (AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :0.07Dy 3+ showed exceptional thermal-quenching resistance of > 87.3% intensity at 350 K. The temperature-sensing properties of Ca 3 Gd 0.93 (AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :0.07Dy 3+ ranging from 300 to 500 K were analyzed and had shown a decent maximum S A value about 1.35% K −1 at 500 K between 455 and 669 nm fluorescence intensity ratio. Hence, the novel Ca 3 Gd 0.93 (AlO) 3 (BO 3 ) 4 :0.07Dy 3+ materials could be a competent candidate for low-cost and non-contact optical thermometry in a high-temperature environment.
