Tubular carbon-covered cobalt-doped bi-crystalline phase In 2 O 3 (denoted as CoInO-x) was synthesized by one-step calcination of the metal-organic framework cobalt-doped MIL-68(In)-NH 2 precursor. The photocatalytic activity of CoInO-x was investigated using tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) degradation. The removal of TCH by CoInO-500 obtained by calcination at 500 °C under visible light irradiation was 90.1% after 70 min, which was significantly higher than that of In 2 O 3 . The reaction rate constant of CoInO-500 was 11.02 times higher than that of In 2 O 3 and could maintain a better photocatalytic performance after four cycles. The effects of photocatalyst dosing, pH, and inorganic anions on photocatalytic degradation were studied. The mechanism of photocatalytic degradation was analyzed in detail by reactive radical trapping experiments, Mott-Schottky measurements, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal characterization. Enhanced photocatalytic performance is mostly attributed to the cobalt doping creating impurity energy levels and narrowing the forbidden bandwidth of In 2 O 3 , enhancing the visible light utilization and the photogenerated charge separation efficiency. Carbon covering can serve as a bridge for charge transport, accelerating the rapid transport of photogenerated charges.

Ascorbic acid (AA) is an essential vitamin and plays an irreplaceable role in humans’ daily life. Therefore, it is of profound significance to develop effective strategies for AA sensing. Herein, a novel bi-functional sensing strategy was developed by using carbon dots (CDs) and MnO 2 nanosheet as the fluorometric/magnetic signal source. When AA was absence, the fluorescence of CDs was quenched by MnO 2 nanosheet due to the inner filter effect. Neither the fluorescence nor magnetic signal of the nanoprobe can be detected. In the presence of AA, a redox reaction occurred between MnO 2 nanosheet and AA resulting in the generation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) response Mn 2+ and decomposing of MnO 2 nanosheet structure, thus leading to the recovery of CDs fluorescence. The detection limit of the AA was determined to be 2.89 μM with a linear range of 0–80 μM in fluorescence mode, and detection limit of 0.776 μM with a linear range of 0–80 μM in MRI mode when used transverse relaxation rate as signal. Furthermore, the developed fluorometric/magnetic bi-functional nanoprobe showed good biocompatibility, high response rate, high selectivity towards AA and could be used to analyses AA in real samples. Moreover, in vivo imaging of AA in mice was achieved in magnetic mode. The fluorometric/magnetic bi-function sensor for AA detection was introduced, which provided a novel strategy for sensor design based on CDs.

The electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (ECO 2 RR) has emerged as a promising technology for achieving carbon neutralization. Even though considerable efforts are dedicated to gain deep insight into the understanding of ECO 2 RR on a mechanism level through density functional theory (DFT) studies, effects of solvent molecules and temperature have long been neglected by conventional DFT calculations as a consequence of limitations in current technologies and computational power of supercomputers. Under this context, the lack of comprehensive understanding over the energy changes in the reaction derived from the only concern on free energy changes between reaction intermediates have arouse an urgent call for exploring feasible calculation options toward generalized theoretical study. Here, a systematic mechanism study is provided toward ECO 2 RR via constrained ab initio molecular dynamics (cAIMD) simulations, in which the effects of solvent water molecules and temperature are taken into consideration to guide the synthesis of single-atom alloy (SAA) catalyst. Consequently, the resultant Pr 0.05 /InBi achieves a maximum Faradic efficiency (FE) of 96.4% and an energy efficacy (EE) of 59.41% for formate. This work offers a novel approach to the design and screening of SAA catalysts, presenting foreseeable future in accelerating the industrial application process of ECO 2 RR.

A two-dimensional (2D) bi-layered composite nanofibrous film assembled by one-dimensional (1D) nanofibers with trifunctionality of electrical conduction, magnetism and photoluminescence has been successfully fabricated by layer-by-layer electrospinning. The composite film consists of a polyaniline (PANI)/Fe3O4 nanoparticle (NP)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) tuned electrical–magnetic bifunctional layer on one side and a Tb(TTA)3(TPPO)2/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) photoluminescent layer on the other side, and the two layers are tightly combined face-to-face together into the novel bi-layered composite film of trifunctionality. The brand-new film has totally different characteristics at the double layers. The electrical conductivity and magnetism of the electrical–magnetic bifunctional layer can be, respectively, tunable via modulating the PANI and Fe3O4 NP contents, and the highest electrical conductivity can reach up to the order of 10−2 S cm−1, and predominant intense green emission at 545 nm is obviously observed in the photoluminescent layer under the excitation of 357 nm single-wavelength ultraviolet light. More importantly, the luminescence intensity of the photoluminescent layer remains almost unaffected by the electrical–magnetic bifunctional layer because the photoluminescent materials have been successfully isolated from dark-colored PANI and Fe3O4 NPs. By comparing with the counterpart single-layered composite nanofibrous film, it is found that the bi-layered composite nanofibrous film has better performance. The novel bi-layered composite nanofibrous film with trifunctionality has potential in the fields of nanodevices, molecular electronics and biomedicine. Furthermore, the design conception and fabrication technique for the bi-layered multifunctional film provide a new and facile strategy towards other films of multifunctionality.

Herrin, the lignin extracted from Rice hull , Phyllostachys edulis , Cunninghamia lanceolata, and Populus tomentosa Carrière were used as a soft support to grow Ti-doped Bi 2 (O,S) 3 bimetal oxysulfide catalysts, labeled BT-Rh, BT-Pe, BT-Cl, and BT-Ptc, respectively. The catalytic reduction activity was investigated through the decolorization of methyl orange (MO), methylene blue (MB), and reduction of Cr(VI) solutions under dark. The lignin-supported BiTiOS improved crystallinity, decreased aggregate size, increased specific surface area, and enhanced electrochemical active sites, leading to improve electron transfer and accelerated reduction rates. The catalytic reduction activity of organic dyes and Cr(VI) was significantly improved with lignin-supported BiTiOS. The 5 mg BT-Pe catalyst completely reduced 100 mL of 50 ppm MO, MB, and Cr(VI) solutions in 6, 6, and 18 min, respectively, with the reaction kinetic rate of 0.6782, 1.090, and 0.1189 min −1 , and demonstrated good durability, maintaining a reduction rate of 95 % after six cycles. This work provides a feasible approach combining biomass/inorganic materials to treat industrial wastewater.

The CO 2 electrochemical reduction reactions (CO 2 ER) to produce high-value formate are crucial for closing the anthropogenic CO 2 cycle. Modulating the adsorption energy between *OCHO and Bi atoms in Bi-based catalysts could enhance both the activity and selectivity for formate formation. Here, a Bi/BiOBr nanosheet with highly dispersed Bi single atoms in intercalations was synthesized through NaBH 4 treatment of BiOBr, which retained the intercalated Bi atoms after electrolysis (Bi/BiOBr-D). The intercalated Bi atoms optimize the Bi-6p band center (0.016 eV) and charge distribution in Bi/BiOBr-D, enhancing the coupling between the O-2p orbitals of *OCHO and the Bi-6p orbitals as well as the electron transfer dynamics between Bi and the *OCHO intermediate, which improves the stability of the *OCHO intermediate during CO 2 ER. Further studies demonstrate that enhanced *OCHO adsorption reduces the Gibbs free energy barrier for the CO 2 →*OCHO process and suppressing the formation of the *H intermediate. Those advantages lead to high selectivity (FE of 96.83 %) in H-type cell, and excellent activity (j HCOO- of 815 mA/cm²) and productivity (15.22 mmol/h·cm²) in flow cell for formate production over Bi/BiOBr-D sample.

The use of biogas as renewable raw material to produce syngas（H 2 /CO ≈ 2）suitable for direct synthesis of methanol has attracted wide attention, but designing promising catalysts with high activity and stability remains a challenge. The catalytic systems used for this process usually have the characteristics of poor stability and easy carbon deposition. Here, Based on the Ce redox cycle and the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI), we designed and synthesized a series of Ni catalysts (denoted as Ni/CeMgO x /BN) with BN interfacial constraints. The abundant oxygen vacancy of reaction-induced Ce redox cycle endows Ni/CeMgO x /BN with excellent carbon resistance, because the ability to activate CO 2 /H 2 O is significantly enhanced. The CO 2 /H 2 O activation and carbon elimination mechanism were comprehensively characterized by in situ H 2 -TPR/CO 2 /H 2 O-TPSR, in situ CH 4 -TPSR/CO 2 /H 2 O-TPO, and FTIR, etc. Ascribed to the appropriate basicity of CeMgO x , homogeneous Ni dispersion, and strong interaction between Ni ultra-small nano particles (NPs) and CeMgO x /BN, Ni/CeMgO x /BN exhibit higher CO 2 /H 2 O adsorption/activation, higher CH 4 activation/dissociation, compared with another samples, which facilitate the formation of active oxygen species and intermediate coke removal, thus enhance the resistance to coke deposition and sintering. At 750 °C, Ni/CeMgO x /BN exhibit satisfying catalytic activity (CH 4 /CO 2 conversation 92 %/52 %) and superior stability (100 h) with negligible deactivation rates.

With the increasing complexity of radiation environments, the development of effective shielding materials against 222 Rn and gamma radiation is critical for ensuring human health and safety. This study utilized a two-step hydrothermal method to synthesize Gd₂O(CO₃)₂@bismuth-based metal–organic frameworks (Bi-MOFs)/graphene nanoplatelets (GBG) composite fillers, followed by melt blending and hot-press molding to develop GBG/polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) composites aimed at shielding against 222 Rn and gamma radiation. The successful synthesis and structural integrity of the composites were confirmed using various characterization techniques, including x-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The experimental results indicate that the GBG composite filler exhibits superior enhancement in 222 Rn shielding capabilities, with the 222 Rn diffusion coefficient of GBG/PMMA-20 composites reduced to 1.41 × 10 −13 m 2 /s, a 98.6% decrease compared to pure PMMA (1.04 × 10 −11 m 2 /s). Furthermore, the GBG demonstrates outstanding improvements in gamma-ray shielding performance, with the mass attenuation coefficient of GBG/PMMA-50 reaching 2.70 cm 2 /g for 59.5 keV gamma rays, nearly 16 times higher than that of pure PMMA (0.16 cm 2 /g). Additionally, thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the introduction of GBG fillers significantly improves the thermal stability of the PMMA composites. This work could offer an innovative approach to the design of 222 Rn and gamma radiation shielding materials. Highlights Developed a novel composite for enhanced 222 Rn and gamma radiation shielding. Introduced Gd-based fillers to enhance gamma radiation attenuation in PMMA composites. Achieved superior thermal stability in PMMA composites compared to pure PMMA. Materials designed for application in high-radiation environments, including mining.

The Janus adhesive wound dressings exhibit properties analogous to human skin. Specifically, they must possess both adhesive and non-adhesive characteristics to function effectively. The adhesive property ensures secure attachment to the wound site, while the non-adhesive side acts as a protective barrier against external contaminants. In this study, we have developed an integrated Janus antibacterial hydrogel that features a rapid photoresponsive adhesive layer alongside a robust anti-adhesive layer. The anti-adhesion layer hydrogel, referred to as PPAL, exhibits a maximum tensile fracture strength of 738.54 kPa and a fracture strain of 774.02 %. This adhesive layer is referred to as MCDAE. Upon irradiation with 405 nm ultraviolet light, MCDAE rapidly forms a strong bond with PPAL within 10 s, resulting in the formation of a Janus-adhesive hydrogel (MCDAE/PPAL). We synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with sizes ranging from 20 to 40 nm in situ within MCDAE hydrogels. Owing to the synergistic effects of quaternary ammonium compounds and AgNPs, Janus MCDAE/PPAL hydrogels exhibited concentration-dependent bacteriostatic activity against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus . Furthermore, both in vitro and in vivo experiments have demonstrated that the MCDAE/PPAL dressing possesses superior biocompatibility, exceptional antibacterial properties, effective hemostatic capabilities, and enhanced wound healing potential.

The self-assembled Bi-based metal–organic framework microspheres (Bi-MOF-M) by nanorods were successfully constructed by the glycol-assisted solvothermal method . Using Bi-MOF-M as a homologous template, a petal-like Bi 2 MoO 6 (BMO) layer was grown in situ on its surface to facilely construct a chemically bonded heterojunction interface, realizing a micro/nano hierarchical flower spherical-like Bi-MOF-M/BMO heterojunction composite photocatalyst . The as-prepared series of Bi-MOF-M/BMO- x catalysts show higher visible light catalytic performance for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) degradation. Among them, Bi-MOF-M/BMO-0.3 has the optimal catalytic activity, and the degradation efficiency can reach 93.6% within 60 min of light irradiation with superior mineralization ability and structural stability , and the degradation kinetic constant is 6.12 times that of Bi-MOF-M and 5.69 times that of BMO, respectively. The homologously grown Bi-MOF-M/BMO chemically bonded heterojunction not only effectively broadens the spectral absorption range and enhances the absorption intensity but also promotes the efficient separation of photogenerated carriers through forming a favorable interfacial electric field and well-matched energy band alignment. A reasonable mechanism for the visible light degradation of TC by the Bi-MOF-M/BMO composite catalyst with h + and 1 O 2 as the main reactive species is proposed. The micro/nano hierarchical structure of the Bi-MOF/BMO catalyst allows it to exhibit the easy recovery advantage of micron-scale materials while maintaining the high catalytic activity of the primary nano-components.

The inevitable amorphous Bi 2 O 3 on the surface of plasmonic Bi nanospheres serving as the recombination center of hot electron-hole pairs, hindered the transfer of photo-generated hot electrons and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) seriously. In this study, Bi@amorphous Bi 2 O 3 was transformed to Bi@crystal Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 by secondary hydrothermal reaction. Bi@Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 core–shell photocatalyst exhibited higher visible-light catalytic activity (34.1%) than Bi@Bi 2 O 3 did (12.3%) in terms of NO x removal. Photoelectrochemical, surface photovoltage spectroscopy spectra and Kelvin probe force microscopy measurement results indicate that Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 shell reduced the transmission resistance of hot electrons excited from Bi core. O 2 -TPD, trapping experiments and density functional theory further confirmed that the transferred hot electrons were a help for ROS generation and •O 2 − radicals were the major contributor. This study not only addresses the unsettled issue of surface amorphous Bi 2 O 3 , but also provides a facile method to transform the amorphous shell to crystal phase of core–shell photocatalyst and new insights into the hot electrons separation and the formation of main ROS over the surface crystal transition of plasmonic Bi.

Structural electrolytes with both mechanical and electrochemical properties are of great significance in structural energy storage devices. In this paper, we succeeded to synthesize a novel epoxy resin/hydrogel bicontinuous phase structure electrolyte for the first time by the ingenious design of the hydrophobic curing agent and the substitution of hydrogel for water, and filled the application of bicontinuous electrolyte in aqueous electrochemical energy storage system. The fine structure composition of electrolyte was divided and analyzed in detail by X-ray micro-CT technology. The epoxy resin phase is composed of a reasonable distribution of skeleton structures of various sizes, the largest of which is able to support heavy weights. And a large number of tiny skeletons are distributed to connect the skeletons of different sizes, which improves the three-dimensional interconnection of the epoxy resin phase and makes it excellent mechanical properties (Tensile strength 11.91 Mpa). The large size PVA gel phase constitutes the main pathway for conducting ions. Furthermore, the large-diameter gel phases are coupled in three dimensions with a huge number of micro-diameter gel phases, increasing the number of micro-ion transport channels and decreasing the distance of ion transport with good ionic conductivity (0.15 mS cm −1 ). Using carbon cloth coated in slurry as the electrode, an integrated structural energy storage bearing device was created in situ using layer brush technology, which exhibited exceptional electrochemical performance during in-situ variable load tests. We have successfully solved the construction of aqueous bicontinuous phase structure electrolyte, which made the application of various water chemistry systems in structural energy storage possible.
