A one-step hydrothermal method was used to deposit a in situ composite coating on a magnesium alloy by adding ZIF-8 nanoparticles modified by polydopamine (PDA) (PDA@ZIF-8) as a photoabsorbing agent and growing Mg-Al double-layer hydroxide (LDH). The results showed that PDA@ZIF-8 nanoparticles had significant influence on the corrosion resistance, antibacterial properties, and biocompatibility of the LDH coating, and improved the compactness and crystallinity of LDH by regulating the growth of its lamella. Compared with the LDH coating, the corrosion current density of the composite coating by adding PDA@ZIF-8 nanoparticles was reduced from 2.28×10 -5 to 1.86×10 −6 A·cm -2 . And its immersion corrosion rates were 0.89 ± 0.05 mm·year −1 in SBF solution for 8 days. Meanwhile, it had antibacterial efficacy of 99.99% and 99.99% against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus , respectively, with the in vitro photothermal conversion efficiency of 29.77%. Moreover, besides greatly improving osteogenic activity and biocompatibility in vitro, the composite coating with the addtion of PDA@ZIF-8 nanoparticlescan also drive M1-type macrophages to M2-biased phenotypes after exposure to 808 nm NIR light, changing in macrophage secretion for tissue regeneration, and fulfill the excellent antibacterial properties in vivo antibacterial implantation test. This method can provide an effective way and strategy for regulating and enhancing the antibacterial functionalization and improving the corrosion resistance of the double-layer hydroxide coating on the surface of magnesium alloys.

Li–Mg–B–H reactive hydride composite (RHC) has attracted extensive attention over the past decades for its extremely high hydrogen storage capacity (11.5 wt%). But the sluggish desorption kinetics for the second step dehydrogenation reaction need to be further improved. Herein, short rod-like TMTiO 3 (TM = Co, Ni) bimetallic oxides , which contain two kinds of transition metal elements, were synthesized and introduced into Li–Mg–B–H RHC for the first time. The NiTiO 3 exhibits excellent catalytic effect on the hydrogen desorption kinetic performance of Li–Mg–B–H RHC, and the incubation period for the second step dehydrogenation reaction is eliminated completely by reducing the apparent activation energy for the generation of MgB 2 from 296 kJ/mol to 269 kJ/mol. The NiTiO 3 doped Li–Mg–B–H RHC can desorb about 9.0 wt% H 2 without obvious attenuation of kinetic performance in five cycles. Mechanism analyses reveal that the in-situ generated nano-sized MgNi 3 B 2 and TiB 2 species (∼5 nm) both meet the critical value ( < 10%) of the edge-to-edge matching model (5.77% for MgNi 3 B 2 and 2.22% for TiB 2 ), which play a significant role in supporting the nucleation of MgB 2 . Meanwhile, the extremely fine MgNi 3 B 2 and TiB 2 heterogeneous nucleation sites can inhibit the excessive growth for a single crystal nucleus of MgB 2 . The heterogeneous nucleation and grain refinement mechanisms caused by the novel bimetallic oxide could provide alternative insights into designing an in-situ generated nano-sized catalytic hydrogen storage system with enhanced kinetics and cyclic stability for hydrogen-fueled applications.

Upcycling polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic into high-value chemicals like p-xylene is challenging, due to the difficulty for achieving selective depolymerization of PET and deoxygenation of reaction intermediates. Herein, a tandem alcoholysis-hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis strategy for converting PET to p-xylene over Cu-based catalysts using n-butanol as both solvent and reactant at 205 °C was conducted using Mg-modulated Cu-based catalysts derived from layered double hydroxides. By precisely tuning the Mg/Al molar ratio, the multidimensional synergistic roles of Mg in enhancing the catalyst performance were unraveled, which serves as the core of heterogeneous PET depolymerization. Specifically, Mg reinforces metal–support interactions, confining Cu nanoparticles to an average size of 4.8 nm, which is far smaller than the 14.1 nm observed in Mg-free Cu1.0Al2.0, maximizing accessible active sites and accelerating the rate-determining step of PET butanolysis. Mg also induces pore coarsening to form a hierarchical mesoporous architecture, eliminating steric hindrance for the rapid diffusion of bulky PET oligomers. Moreover, Mg enriches surface basic sites (critical for ester bond cleavage, as confirmed by acid–base titration) and induces oxygen vacancies (promoting carbonyl adsorption and deoxygenation via in situ FT-IR). The optimized catalyst exhibits a low apparent activation energy (49.6 kJ/mol) and high p-xylene yield (99%), with exceptional recyclability by suppressing Cu sintering.

Fluid loss agent (FLA) was adopted to reduce the fluid loss of cement paste to ensure the safety of cementing construction. With the increase of exploration depth, FLA applied at high temperatures has been urgently required. To meet the cementing requirements at 240 °C, the FLA with organic/inorganic intercalated microstructure was prepared. Anionic polymer FLA (ADIS) was comprised of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic Acid (AMPS), N , N -dimethylacrylamide (DMAA), Itaconic acid (IA) and Sodium p-styrene sulfonate (SSS). The organic-inorganic hybrid FLA (MgAl-ADIS-LDH) was prepared via intercalating ADIS into Mg/Al hydrotalcite (MgAl-NO 3 -LDH) interlayers . The intercalated microstructure was observed by SEM , TG results exhibited that the intercalation of polymer ADIS in MgAl-NO 3 -LDH enhanced the thermal stability of overall FLA. When applied in cement, the cement with MgAl-ADIS-LDH showed a small water loss of 36 mL at 240 °C. Moreover, the structure avoided the decrease in the compressive strength of hardened cement resulted from traditional polymer FLA. Compared with the cement contains 1.6% bwoc ADIS, the compressive strength of specimen with MgAl-ADIS-LDH increased by 20.5% after cured for 3 days.

Osteoporosis, a prevalent chronic health issue among the elderly, is a global bone metabolic disease. Flavonoids, natural active compounds widely present in vegetables, fruits, beans, and cereals, have been reported for their anti-osteoporotic properties. Onion is a commonly consumed vegetable rich in flavonoids with diverse pharmacological activities. In this study, the trabecular structure was enhanced and bone mineral density (BMD) exhibited a twofold increase following oral administration of onion flavonoid extract (OFE). The levels of estradiol (E2), calcium (Ca), and phosphorus (P) in serum were significantly increased in ovariectomized (OVX) rats, with effects equal to alendronate sodium (ALN). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) levels in rat serum were reduced by 35.7% and 36.9%, respectively, compared to the OVX group. In addition, the effects of OFE on bone health were assessed using human osteoblast-like cells MG-63 and osteoclast precursor RAW 264.7 cells in vitro as well. Proliferation and mineralization of MG-63 cells were promoted by OFE treatment, along with increased ALP activity and mRNA expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL). Additionally, RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast activity were inhibited by OFE treatment through decreased TRAP activity and down-regulation of mRNA expression-related enzymes in RAW 264.7 cells. Overall findings suggest that OFE holds promise as a natural functional component for alleviating osteoporosis.

By applying the high-entropy strategy, one can develop stable mixed oxide by populating a single sublattice with many distinct cations. Two kinds of rare-earth high-entropy hexaaluminates (La 1/5 Nd 1/5 Sm 1/5 Eu 1/5 Gd 1/5 )MAl 11 O 19 (M = Mg and Zn) were successfully synthesized, and their mechanical and thermal properties were analyzed. We highlight that the Zn-containing sample displays a significant increase in fracture toughness (2.48 MPa m 1/2 ) and a decrease in thermal conductivity (1500 °C, 1.2 W m −1 K −1 ) as compared to the Mg-containing sample. The diffusion of fine grains in platelet-like grains observed only in the Zn-containing sample is considered to be responsible for its outstanding mechanical properties. This work demonstrates the excellent thermal-mechanical properties of the Zn-containing sample and indicates the promising use of high-entropy hexaaluminate in the aerospace field acting as thermal barrier coating materials.

Recently, sustainable biochar composites created from waste biomass and other benign materials have attracted increasing attention for their promising potential in the removal of organic contaminants from environmental media. A facile approach combining coprecipitation-hydrothermal synthesis with buried carbon pyrolysis was used to produce composites composed of Mg-Al hydrotalcite and hickory-chip/peanut-shell biochar which was tested for its ability to remove anionic Congo red (CR) from aqueous solution. The composites exhibited high specific surface area, high micro-porosity, and abundant oxygen/carbon-containing functional groups. The sorbents derived from hickory and peanut shell exhibited maximum experimental CR adsorption capacities of 1045.6 and 1195.0 mg g -1 , respectively (20 times of pristine biochar) with removal rates of 86.1% and 98.3%, respectively, superior to those of hydrotalcite and many other advanced CR sorbents. The work highlights the potential of hydrotalcite/biochar composites as a promising adsorbent for water treatment and environmental applications.

An electrochemical sensor is described for the simultaneous determination of Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , Hg 2+ and Pb 2+ using square wave anodic stripping voltammetry. A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with N,N-dimethyl-N-2-propenyl-2-propen-1-aminium chloride homopolymer ionic liquid doped into magnesium(II)-aluminium(III) layered double hydroxides. The morphology investigations suggest that the material possesses typical interconnected laminated micropores and a mesoporous architecture dispersed on the surface of the GCE. This accelerates mass diffusion and facilitates the deposition-stripping process of metal ions. Key operational parameters including pH, deposition potential, deposition time and the quantity of nanomaterial on the GCE were optimized. The following figures of merit for the ions Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , Hg 2+ and Pb 2+ are obtained under optimum conditions: (a) detection limits of 250, 25, 250 and 16 ng L −1 ; (b) linear ranges from 0.5 to 20, 0.05 to 20, 0.5 to 20 and 0.05 to 20 μg L −1 , and (c) peak potentials of −768, +42, +302 and − 541 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl). The modified GCE was successfully applied to the determination of these ions in spiked black tea extract and in dried tangerine peel .

A cost-effective and eco-friendly catalyst is desirable for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) into reactive oxygen species (ROS) to abate organic pollutants in water. It is the first-ever research to synthesize a highly efficient PMS-activator by incorporating cobalt on as-synthesized Mg- and Al-loaded diatomite (DM) by impregnation (IM) and precipitation-deposition (PD) methods. The catalysts showed a mixture of the plate and pinnate-like morphologies. Atrazine (ATZ) degradation by diatomite-based catalysts followed the order of Co6Mg10/DM-IM > Co6Mg10/DM-PD > Co6Al10/DM-IM > Co6Al10/DM-PD. ATZ removal by sole PMS and adsorption was negligible. The Co6Mg10/DM-IM morphology, structure, and catalytic activity were well-maintained after reuse, with minor Co (0.05 mg L −1 ) and Mg (3.05 mg L −1 ) leaching. The ROS ( OH, SO 4 − , O 2 − and 1 O 2 ) were generated due to redox couples [Co 2+ /Co 3+ , and O 2− /O 2 ] and decomposition of PMS. Improved catalytic efficiency was ascribed to the Co/Mg and Co/Al synergism, spatially interconnected architecture with lower charge-transfer resistance, open porous structure, diffusion-friendly channels, abundant OH groups, and ROS generation. This research provides an insight into how tuning the surface chemistry of DM in terms of acidity and basicity can enhance the catalytic activity of other transition metals (such Fe, Mn, Cu, and their composites) for AOPs.

Scrap aluminum (Al) alloy recycling is critical for energy conservation and decreasing carbon emissions. Conventional remelting process does not remove alloying elements, severely limiting the value and applications of recycled Al. To overcome this limitation, this study develops an efficient process for recovering pure Al from scrap Al alloys via soluble anode electrolysis in a designed MgCl 2 -KCl-NaCl (MKN) molten salt system. Real-time monitoring of the electrolysis process, time-dependent characterization of cathodic deposits, and electrochemical analyses reveal a three-stage cathodic deposition mechanism in the MKN molten salt system: initial underpotential deposition of Mg 2+ transitions to co-deposition of Mg 2+ and Al 3+ , and ultimately to exclusive reduction of Al 3+ , which is driven by progressive Al 3+ accumulation. The introduction of AlCl 3 proves pivotal, simultaneously enhancing Al 3+ deposition efficiency while effectively suppressing Mg 2+ co-reduction. Systematic optimization identifies 12.5 wt% AlCl 3 addition, 500 °C, and 0.15 A/cm 2 as the ideal operational parameters, achieving recycled Al with 99.84 wt% purity. The soluble anode electrolysis process in the MKN molten salt system represents an efficient and scalable alternative to conventional remelting. The developed process is capable of producing recycled Al with purity comparable to that of primary Al while addressing critical sustainability challenges in the Al industry.

Carbon-free based fuels are a promising solution to overcome the world energy crisis and environmental pollution . Therefore, hydrogen fuel is a critical and sustainable energy source to replace the limited carbon-based fossil fuels, which can be generated using a simple photocatalysis method. Herein, we demonstrated that Ni- and Mg-doped ZnIn 2 (O,S) 4 (NMZI) photocatalysts prepared with a hydrothermal process performed an unprecedented HER rate without a noble-metal cocatalyst under visible-light illumination. The amounts of Ni and Mg dopants in NMZI were varied and the as-prepared NMZI were characterized with SEM, TEM, XRD, Raman, FTIR, XPS, EPR, DRS, PL , EIS, TPC , CV, and tested for photocatalytic HER . It was found that the Ni and Mg co-dopants induced substitutional surface defects of Zn In − , Ni In − , and Mg In − . As a result, the formation of oxygen vacancy ( V O 2 + ) compensated the induced defect charges, which are crucial in the HER mechanism. EDS, ICP, and XPS analyses suggest a non-stoichiometric Zn(Zn,Ni,Mg,In) 2 (O,S) 3.5 with Zn, Ni, and Mg occupying In sites in the structure. The NMZI catalyst could achieve a maximum HER rate of 9.4 mmol/g․h under visible-light illumination. It is believed that the HER performance improvement is due to the defect formation on NMZI catalyst that subsequently enhances the optical, electrochemical, and photocatalytic properties. The photocatalytic HER mechanism has been elucidated and discussed thoroughly in this work.

Mg anode has pronounced advantages in terms of high volumetric capacity, resource abundance, and dendrite-free electrochemical plating, which make rechargeable Mg-based batteries stand out as a representative next-generation energy storage system utilized in the field of large-scale stationary electric grid. However, sluggish Mg2+ diffusion in cathode lattices and facile passivation on the Mg anode hinder the commercialization of Mg batteries. Exploring a highly electroactive cathode prototype with hierarchical nanostructure and compatible electrolyte system with the capability of activating both an anode and a cathode is still a challenge. Here, we propose a POM⊂MOF (NENU-5) core–shell architecture as a hybrid precursor template to achieve the stacking of tailored chalcogenide nanosheets around MoO2-C conductive stakes, which can be employed as conversion–insertion cathodes (Cu1.96S-MoS2-MoO2 and Cu2Se-MoO2) for Mg–Li dual-salt batteries. Li-salt modulation further activates the capacity and rate performance at the cathode side by preferential Li-driven displacement reaction in Cu+ extrusible lattices. The heterogeneous conductive network and conformal dual-doped carbon coating enable a reversible capacity as high as 200 mAh/g with a coulombic efficiency close to 100%. The composite cathode can endure a long-term cycling up to 400 cycles and a high current density up to 2 A/g. The diversity of MOF-based materials infused by functional molecules or clusters would enrich the nanoengineering of electrodes to meet the performance demand for future multivalent batteries.
