Development of cost-effective and efficient electrochemical catalysts for the fuel cells electrode is of prime importance to emerging renewable energy technologies . Here, we report for the first time the novel La 0.9 Ca 0.1 Fe 0.9 Nb 0.1 O 3−δ (LCFNb) perovskite with good potentiality for the electrode material of the symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells (SSOFC). The Sc 0.2 Zr 0.8 O 2−δ (SSZ) electrolyte supported symmetrical cells with impregnated LCFNb and LCFNb/SDC (Ce 0.8 Sm 0.2 O 2−δ ) electrodes achieve relatively high power outputs with maximum power densities (MPDs) reaching up to 392 and 528.6 mW cm −2 at 850 °C in dry H 2 , respectively, indicating the excellent electro-catalytic activity of LCFNb towards both hydrogen oxidation and oxygen reduction. Besides, the MPDs of the symmetrical cells with LCFNb/SDC composite electrodes in CO and syngas (CO: H 2 = 1:1) are almost identical to those in H 2 , implying that LCFNb material has similar catalytic activities to carbon monoxide compared with hydrogen. High durability in both H 2 , CO and syngas during the short term stability tests for 50 h are also obtained, showing desirable structure stability, and carbon deposition resistance of LCFNb based electrodes. The present results indicate that the LCFNb perovskite with remarkable cell performance is a promising electrode material for symmetrical SOFCs.

In this study, lanthanum hydroxide adsorbent was synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method and applied for removing phosphate from water. The optimal adsorbent was obtained at the La/OH molar ratio of 4:1. The adsorbent showed rapid adsorption of phosphate within the first 4 h in which approximately 84% of the equilibrium adsorption capacity can be achieved. The phosphate uptake was highly dependent on solution pH. The better fit of the Langmuir isotherm model to experimental data indicated that the monolayer adsorption occurred and the maximum adsorption capacity of 193.9 mg/g was accomplished at pH 7.0. The presence of fluoride could significantly retard the uptake of phosphate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that hydroxyl groups on the adsorbent surface played the most key role in the adsorption. The phosphate ions were adsorbed on the adsorbent through the formation of inner-sphere complexes.

A series of luminescent polymers are synthesized by incorporating rare earth complex units into polymer matrices. Firstly, we functionalize the selected polymer matrices with the imidazolium moieties, and then introduce the rare earth tetrakis(β-diketonate) complexes into polymer matrices through a mild anion exchange method. The resulting materials are characterized by FTIR, XRD, EDAX, SEM, thermogravimetric analysis, luminescence excitation spectra and emission spectra, luminescence lifetime measurements and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectra. The photoluminescence measurements indicate that all these rare earth complex functionalized polymers exhibit a characteristic luminescence emission originating from the corresponding rare earth ions. Among the hybrids, the europium tetrakis(TTA) complex functionalized polymers show remarkable luminescence quantum yields and relatively long 5 D 0 lifetimes at room temperature.

Lost circulation has been a serious problem to be solved in many drilling practices during oil, gas and geothermal well drillings. Many materials have been developed and evaluated for the purpose. However, their performance to plug severe leakoff is very limited. Herein, an injectable self-healing hydrogel based on polyampholyte with sulfonated and quaternary ammonium functionalities (P(MPTC- co -NaSS)) was developed and comprehensively evaluated to prevent the severe loss of fluids to formation. By incorporating cation-π (π is for aromatic residues) interaction, the hydrogel shown self-healing property and robustness in severe environment (temperature, salt) by comparison with other hydrogels merely consisting of cation-anion and H-bonding interactions. Aromatic residues enhanced thermal stability above 310 °C. The plugging measurement shown that an addition of 2 wt% dried gel particles can plug high-permeability formation and endure a high pressure of 6 MPa, produce much lower circulation loss and result in a dramatically increased loss volume reduction rate (63.5%) compared with a commercial polymer gel product and an inert material (9.4%) after a self-healing process. Markedly, P(MPTC- co -NaSS) can be used in a wide range of formation temperature (as high as 150 °C) and salt concentrations (NaCl, CaCl 2 , as high as 15 wt %). In addition to suitable particle size and mechanically robustness, it was also attributed to the soft, swelling, deformable, toughness and self-healable features of P(MPTC- co -NaSS) gel particles as well as the strong adhesion to negatively charged formations in water, even under high thermal and saline condition. These characteristics also contributed to a long-term plugging performance, beneficial to avoid repeated lost circulation in drilling operation. Besides, this self-healing polyampholyte gel particles dispersed well in saline fluid and maintained stable rheological properties after hot rolling, which was favorable to drilling fluid circulation. This study shown the application potential of self-healing materials as plugging material candidate in petroleum drilling industry.

The composite after referred to as P(DMDAAC-AGE)/(Ce-ZnO) was prepared via free radical polymerization by polymer including quaternary ammonium salt and epoxy group which grafted onto the surface of Ce-ZnO. ZnO nanorods, Ce-ZnO nanorods, P(DMDAAC-AGE), P(DMDAAC-AGE)/ZnO composites, P(DMDAAC-AGE)/(Ce-ZnO) composites and commercial antimicrobials were respectively treated on the cotton fabrics and their biological properties were investigated. There is a synergistic effect between Ce-ZnO and N + from the polymer in the fabric treated with P(DMDAAC-AGE)/(Ce-ZnO) composite so that it had a better antibacterial activity than pure polymer and pure Ce-ZnO. The antimicrobial rate of fabric treated with P(DMDAAC-AGE)/(Ce-ZnO) composite could reach up to 96%. And in order to investigate the durable ability, the fabric was washed multiple times to simulate the daily use washing. The result showed that the fabric still gave a superior antibacterial performance after 11 cycles (the equivalent of 55 times house laundering). Simultaneously, the differences in the amount of P(DMDAAC-AGE)/(Ce-ZnO) composite deposited on the fibers after washing were also investigated.

The polymethacrylimide/silicate (PMI/silicate) composites were successfully prepared from the monomers of acrylonitrile (AN) and methacrylic acid (MAA) via the monomer in situ intercalation polymerization and free foaming. The formation of imide groups was monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results of FTIR and XPS indicated that the imide groups were gradually formed and cyano groups were dwindling but still existed during foaming and thermal treatment. The thermogravimetric analysis results revealed that the thermal stability of the PMI/silicate composites was improved, the rate of thermal degradation was reduced, and the residue was increased because of the addition of silicates. The results of dynamic mechanical analysis revealed that the rigidity and the glass transition temperature of the composites were improved. The limit oxygen index (LOI) and cone calorimeter (CONE) test showed that the fire-retardant properties were improved because of the barrier effect of silicates. The cell morphologies of the PMI/silicate composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the results showed that the silicate particles were distributed on the cell walls, but the cells slightly cracked. The mechanical properties were measured by tensile, flexural, and compressive strength. The mechanical strength, especially flexural strength, was significantly improved. The flexural strength of PMI/MMT, PMI/kaolin, and PMI/talc containing 8 wt% silicates was improved to 172%, 240%, and 233%.

Nowadays, the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA), a highly prevalent joint disorder, remains a medical challenge because of the lack of understanding of its pathogenesis. In this work, we developed an alternative strategy of OA treatment using magnesium-based materials as potential therapeutic agent towards subchondral bone remodeling. We selected deer antlers as the animal model where calcification behaviors could provide interesting references for the rapid and reproducible endochondral bone growth. Extremely high content of Mg was detected in the antler, which was able to affect the evolutions of biological apatite. Herein, octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), which are critically involved in the calcification process, were respectively synthesized under the Mg-containing conditions to understand the role of Mg in the evolution of biological apatite. Results showed that the substitution of Mg 2+ at lower contents stabilized OCP and ACP, while higher contents of Mg inhibited the formation of both phases. The size of both calcium phosphates was also altered significantly by the addition of Mg. The results of cell culture indicated that excess Mg notably accelerated the secretion of extracellular matrix and inhibited the mineralization of chondrocyte matrix. Hence, utilization of Mg-based materials in subchondral bone was supposed to provide a potential therapeutic approach to treat the OA by inhibiting subchondral of ossification process.

A new complex rare earth borate K7PbLu2B15O30 was prepared by the spontaneous crystallization method. K7PbLu2B15O30 is crystallized in the chiral trigonal space group R32 with cell parameters a = b = 13.0893(3) Å, c = 15.2379(6) Å, α = β = 90°, γ = 120°, and Z = 3. The basic structure of the crystal can be seen as composed of B5O10 groups and LuO6 polyhedra sharing oxygen atoms, while K+ and Pb2+ fill the space to balance the charge. The UV transmission cut-off edge of K7PbLu2B15O30 was less than 300 nm, and the powder SHG response was roughly 1.1 times that of KDP. Furthermore, a first-principles analysis was performed to see more about the relationship between the crystal structure and optical characteristics.

The exploration of stable/efficient phosphor for n -UV chip pumped white light-emitting diodes ( w LEDs) remains an arduous task. Herein, a novel series of color tunable Eu 2+ /Tb 3+ /Sm 3+ tridoped Sc-based cyclosilicate phosphors (KBaScSi 3 O 9 : Eu 2+ /Tb 3+ /Sm 3+ ) have successfully designed and obtained via facile solid-state reaction based on comprehensive consideration of rigidly structural network of host, weak electron-phonon coupling strength and spectral adjustability of codopants via energy transfer (ET). The crystallographic occupancies of Eu, Tb and Sm primary in Ba/K, Ba and Ba sites in the monoclinic host, respectively were determined on the basis of the Rietveld refinements and crystal chemistry rules. The photoluminescence (PL) properties were systematically investigated in conjunction with structural analyses, implying that the ‘warm’ white light with excellent thermal stability is stemmed from combination of optimized blue (Eu 2+ ), green (Tb 3+ ) and red (Sm 3+ ) emissions via Eu → Tb → Sm ET strategy. Interestingly, Tb ions play both roles of green light luminescent center and ET bridge to achieve cascade ET for connecting Eu/Sm ion pairs because of the adverse metal-metal charge transfer (MMCT) effect (Eu 2+ + Sm 3+ → Eu 3+ + Sm 2+ ). Furthermore, the phosphor-converted w LEDs (pc- w LEDs), by encapsulating the optimal KBS: 4 %Eu/4 %Tb/6 %Sm with commercial n -UV LED chip, show high thermal stability with satisfactory electroluminescence (EL) performances. These results indicate the KBS: Eu/Tb/Sm phosphors are potential candidates for application in high power n -UV pumped pc- w LEDs.

In this study, green tea was used as a reducing agent to prepare GT-nZVI/Cu nano-zero-valent iron-copper bimetallic materials for nitrate degradation. Through single factor experiments, the process conditions for nitrate removal by GT-nZVI/Cu were optimized. By measuring the contents of nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia nitrogen in the reaction products, the reduction pathway of nitrate-nitrogen in GT-nZVI/Cu was studied. In addition, the removal mechanism of nitrate by GT-nZVI/Cu was also analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and kinetic experiments. The results showed that the size of GT-nZVI/Cu particles is between 50 and 70 nm, and they are irregular spherical shapes. The polyphenol antioxidants in green tea make GT-nZVI/Cu have stronger antioxidant properties, and the denitration products are mostly nitrogen. The addition of copper ions accelerates the reaction time and reaction rate. The maximum removal rate of nitrate by GT-nZVI/Cu within 75 min can be up to 99 %. After three repeated experiments, the removal rate of GT-nZVI/Cu can still reach 70 %. The removal mechanism of GT-nZVI/Cu has enhanced nitrate removal through complexation, redox, and adsorption co-precipitation. This study provides a new route for the green preparation and efficient application of nZVI.

A biocompatible fiber-optic pH sensor based on Fresnel reflection technique and a sensing coating is presented. Sodium alginate and polyethylenimine are alternatively deposited on the sensing fiber end to form the sensing coating via a layer-by-layer electrostatic self-assembly technique. An optical switch is added to the measurement system for the convenience of fast calibration. A linear, monotonic and fast response in a large pH range (from pH 5.87 to pH 10.55) is obtained with the resolution of 0.01 pH unit. The sensitivity of the pH sensor is 0.018 R.I.U/pH. It is not influenced by fluctuations of light source.

The effects of Mo doping into the B-site of La 0.3 Sr 0.7 TiO 3-δ perovskite on its ionic conductivity and catalytic activity as an anode material of solid oxide fuel cells have been investigated. The partial substitution of Ti by Mo reduces the bond energy between metal and oxygen ions in the perovskite. The concentration of Mo 5+ /Mo 6+ redox couples increases with the rise of the content of Mo, while the oxygen ionic conductivity decreases simultaneously. The doping of Mo significantly reduces the anodic polarization resistance and improves the performance of the single cell. The cell with La 0.3 Sr 0.7 Ti 0.97 Mo 0.03 O 3-δ anode and La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Ga 0.8 Mg 0.2 O 3-δ electrolyte exhibits a maximum power density of 135 mW cm −2 at 850 °C with hydrogen as fuel.
