Differential absorption spectroscopy (DAS) quantifies changes in the UV–Visible absorbance of dissolved organic matter (DOM) caused by reactions of its chromophores. As a result of its precision and sensitvity, DAS serves as a powerful tool for characterizing the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in generated in DOM chlorination reactions. However, the nonlinear relationship between the intensity of DAS and DBP concentrations as well as the need to develop site-specific fitting parameters limit its practical applications. This study investigated the physico-chemical nature of DAS of chlorinated DOM through experimental measurements and theoretical calculations. Results of this study provide molecular-level evidence that electrophilic substitution reactions involving DOM reactive sites result in the emergence of DAS feaures ascribed to the "fast" chromophores. The ring opening in the cyclic enones-like structures which can be present either in the original DOM or are generated as intermediates in its chlorination, leads to the emergence of DAS features associated with the "slow" chromophores and high yields of DBPs. The kinetic study of chlorination of real waters reveals a strong linear relationship (R 2 > 0.91) between ln([DBP]) and the long-wavelength (λ > 325 nm) parameter of the DAS, notably (ln(-DA 350 )). This relationship varies among different water sources due to the differences in the heterogeneity of Band A 3 whose maximum is near 350 nm. Band A 3 is one of the Gaussian bands that comprise the overall UV–Visible spectrum of DOM. A new function ( f ( − D A 350 ) ) is proposed in this study to quantify DBP formation. This function, which is determined by the Band A 3 's area, allows establishing a universal linear relationship between f ( − D A 350 ) and ln([THMs]), as well as f ( − D A 350 ) and ln([HAAs]), across various water sources. The findings of this study will stimulate further development of spectroscopy-based DBP monitoring technology for monitoring and optimization of water disinfection processes.

Solid-state electrolytes are widely anticipated to revitalize high-energy-density and high-safety lithium-ion batteries. However, low ionic conductivity and high interfacial resistance at room temperature pose challenges for their practical application. In this work, the dual-matrix concept is applied to the design of a bilayer heterogeneous structure. The electrolyte in contact with the cathode blends PVDF-HFP and oxidation-resistant PAN. In contrast, the electrolyte in contact with the anode blends PVDF-HFP and reduction-resistant PEO. A UV-curing process was used to fabricate the bilayer heterostructure electrolyte. The heterostructure electrolyte exhibits an ionic conductivity of 4.27 × 10−4S/cm and a Li+transference number of 0.68 at room temperature. Additionally, when assembled into LiFePO4/CPEs/Li batteries, it shows a high initial discharge capacity at room temperature (168 mAh g−1at 0.1 C and 60 mAh g−1at 2 C), with a capacity retention of 93.3% after 100 cycles at a current density of 0.2 C. Notably, at 60 °C, the battery maintains a discharge capacity of 90 mAh g−1at 2 C, with a capacity retention of 97.4% after 100 cycles at 0.2 C. Therefore, solid-state batteries using this bilayer heterogeneous structure electrolyte demonstrate promising performance, including effective capacity output and cycling stability.

Brominated halonitromethanes (Br-HNMs) are generated in water disinfection processes and present high toxicity to human health. This work used aspartic acid (ASP) as the precursor to reveal that bromide (Br − ) induced the production of Br-HNMs in the UV/chlorine disinfection process. Consequently, six Br-HNMs were identified, and their yields presented an increasing and then declining evolution over the reaction time from 0 to 15 min. Also, the total Br-HNMs yield reached the maximum of 251.1 μg L −1 at 5 min and then declined to 107.1 μg L −1 . The total Br-HNMs yield increased from 2.40 to 251.14 μg L −1 with the increase of Cl 2 :Br − ratios from 0.25 to 3.0 by increasing free chlorine dosage with a fixed Br − concentration, and it increased from 207.59 to 251.14 μg L −1 and then decreased to 93.44 μg L −1 with the increase of Cl 2 :Br − ratio from 1.0 to 3.6 by increasing Br − concentration with a fixed free chlorine dosage. Besides, the total Br-HNMs yield reached the highest value (251.14 μg L −1 ) at pH 7.0 and the lowest value (74.20 μg L −1 ) at pH 8.0. Subsequently, the possible reaction mechanism of Br-HNMs generated from ASP was deduced, and the changes in toxicity of Br-HNMs also followed an increasing and then declining trend, closely relating to Br-HNMs yields and Br − utilization. This work explored and illustrated the yields, influence factors, reaction mechanisms, and toxicity of Br-HNMs formed from Br − containing ASP water during UV/chlorine disinfection, which might help to control Br-HNMs formation.

Outdoor icephobic coatings are prone to damage, particularly in extreme weather conditions like freezing temperatures and acid rain. Damage to the coating will result in a loss of icephobic function and may lead to increased icing. Furthermore, it is imperative to incorporate sustainability into icephobic coatings as environmental consciousness grows. Herein, a vanillin-based icephobic coating with anti-extreme-environment self-healing was prepared by incorporating vanillin-based polyols into prepolymers terminated with isocyanates that include silicone oil. The coating exhibited low ice adhesion with a measurement of 8.8 kPa, which was mainly attributed to the hydrophobicity of PDMS and the hydrophobic and lubricating characteristics of silicone oil. Moreover, the coating's remarkable chemical stability and ability to resist fouling were due to its lubricating and hydrophobic properties. More importantly, the coating retains impressive self-healing abilities in extreme conditions (−20 °C, pH = 1, pH = 14) due to the multiple dynamic bonds within the coating and the water-repelling and plasticizing effects of silicone oil. The coating maintained its original hydrophobic characteristics and low ice adhesion strength even after several recycling and self-healing cycles, demonstrating remarkable lifespan and sustainability. This work facilitates meeting the need for anti-icing in outdoor areas, particularly in extremely cold, acidic, and alkaline conditions.

With the popularization of the concept of sustainable development, biobased precursors are attracting increasing attention in the production of UV-curable adhesives. In this study, a straightforward solvent-free approach to prepare biobased adhesives was employed to synthesize methacrylic acid-modified epoxy soybean oil (AESO), which was subsequently blended with flexible hyperbranched siloxane (HPSI-HS) and hydrophobic 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) monomers. The resultant adhesive can be effectively adhered to the substrates through in situ UV curing with the help of initiators. The introduction of HPSI-HS and TFEMA not only reduced the viscosity of the adhesive, achieving a solvent-free adhesion process, but also improved the adhesion strength, flexibility, and thermal stability of the adhesives. The adhesive exhibits exceptional bonding strength to a variety of substrates, including glass, PVDF, copper, and aluminum. The adhesive is insoluble in water and can be bonded in various liquid environments including dimethyl silicone oil, artificial sweat (pH 4.7), seawater, deionized water, hydrochloric acid aqueous solution, and sodium chloride aqueous solutions. The adhesive is prone to degradation in a concentrated alkaline solution. Both the adhesion strength and degradation performance can be effectively modulated by adjusting the formulation meticulously. The multifunctional, degradable, and biobased fluorosilicone adhesive that is suitable for diverse application scenarios presents a practical approach to the advancement of green adhesives.

The incorporation of hyperbranched structure into the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) is a crucial method for achieving a low dielectric constant ( D k ), and the inclusion of crosslinked structure effectively reduces the dielectric loss ( D f ). This approach is of great significance in the development of high-quality communication at high frequencies. However, it is still a significant challenge for maintaining its mechanical properties and reducing D k and D f due to the poor film-forming properties and low ductility of hyperbranched polymers . In this study, we synthesized a novel acrylate-based fluorinated hyperbranched photosensitive polyaryletherketone ( hb -P6FAEK-Ace) as a prepolymer with various bifunctional aliphatic active and 4-acryloyl morpholine as the reactive solvent. Upon UV irradiation, cured films were obtained. This method significantly improved the mechanical properties of the hyperbranched UV-cured resin, with the tensile strength of CF-DCDDA of 83.2 MPa and the elongation at break of 7.61%. Additionally, the five prepared photosensitive resins exhibited excellent rheological properties (from 71.6 mPa s to 134.7 mPa s at 100 °C), rapid curing rates (within tens of seconds), and minimal volume shrinkage (<7%). Meanwhile, the D k of CF-DCDDA was measured to be 2.87, with a D f of 0.0126 at the frequency of 20 GHz. This low dielectric expression for the crosslinked cured films could be ascribed to the confinement of electronic polarization caused by the crosslinked and hyperbranched structures. This work provides a simple, green, and promising strategy for enhancing the dielectric and mechanical properties of hb -PAEK.

A series of new isostructural lanthanide metal–organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs), [Ln2(L)2(DMAC)2]·nH2O [Ln = La (1), Pr (2), Nd (3), Sm (4), Eu (5), Gd (6), Tb (7), and Tm (8); H4L = 5-(bis(4-carboxybenzyl)amino)-isophthalic acid, DMAC = N,N′-dimethylacetamide], have been isolated. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that all complexes exhibit a rare (4,8)-connected alb-4,8-P topology with binuclear [Eu2(COO)8]n secondary building units as 8-connected nodes and H4L ligands as 4-connected nodes. Two mixed-lanthanide analogues of single-lanthanide MOFs were designed and prepared [Ln = La0.93Eu0.02Tb0.05 (9) and Tm0.47Eu0.18Tb0.35 (10)] by way of careful regulation of the relative concentration of lanthanide ions which are able to emit pure white light. Luminescent sensing of complexes 3 and 5 has been investigated. Strikingly, complex 5 exhibits an excellent luminescent sensing to TNP with a high Ksv value of 3.58 × 104 M–1 and a low detection limit of 4.66 × 10–4 mM. Complex 3 reveals high selectivity and sensitivity toward benzaldehyde (Ksv of 4.9 × 104 M–1; detection limit of 3.4 × 10–4 mM). It represents the first example of an NIR luminescent MOF for sensing of benzaldehyde.

In this study, acrylamide and [2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride were grafted onto CS by UV initiation to obtain an environmentally friendly graft copolymer, CS-g-poly(acrylamide-acryloyloxyethyl) trimethylammonium chloride (CS-g-PAD). Poly(acrylamide-acryloyloxyethyl) trimethylammonium chloride was named as PAD. Nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (1H NMR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TG-DSC) were used to characterize CS-g-PAD. Results confirmed the synthesis of CS-g-PAD. SEM results showed that CS-g-PAD exhibited a porous structure with numerous 2–6 μm micropores. The enhanced CaCl2-aided flocculation tests of wastewater contaminated by zinc phosphate coating indicated that CS-g-PAD had better flocculation performance than PAD and the commercially available cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM). The removal rates of zinc concentration, total phosphorus concentration, and chemical oxygen demand were 99.3, 98.8, and 72.5%, respectively, at 6 mg·L–1 CS-g-PAD and pH 10. The precipitated flocs were mainly in crystalline form.

A novel polyurethane resin containing acrylate function and Diels-Alder (DA) structure was synthesized, with potential thermal reversibility and UV curable properties. The UV curing process was monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), which indicated that the DA structure was stable during curing process and the final acrylate C C conversion is 82.5%. The cured film exhibited good repeatedly thermal reversibility. The retro-Diels-Alder (rDA) reaction of the cured film occurred at temperatures higher than 85.5 °C and was obviously accelerated by increasing temperature, which was confirmed by the results of FTIR, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMA). The cured film displayed acceptable thermal stability up to 278.3 °C according to the thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) results. Finally, a cured film with excellent physical properties was obtained.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) is a promising conductive polymer due to its high conductivity and optical transparency. However, two main challenges remain to be solved for its practical application, including improving the humidity stability and water resistance. Here, a novel cross-linkable copolymer of methacryloyloxyethyl isocyanate grafted poly(styrene sulfonate-co-2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) [MOI-P(SS-HEA)] is synthesized by a radical polymerization and condensation reaction. MOI-P(SS-HEA) is used as a multi-functional counter anion to obtain the UV-curable conductive dispersion of PEDOT:MOI-P(SS-HEA). The electrical conductivity, humidity stability, and water resistance of the cross-linked PEDOT:MOI-P(SS-HEA) [PEDOT:MOI-P(SS-HEA)-C] conductive films are investigated. The results indicate that the UV cross-linked reaction significantly improves the humidity stability and water resistance of the PEDOT:MOI-P(SS-HEA)-C conductive film.

A simple method based on dispersive solid-phase extraction (DSPE) and dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction method based on solidification of floating organic droplets (DLLME-SFO) was developed for the extraction of chlorpyrifos (CP), chlorpyrifos-methyl (CPM), and their main degradation product 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) in tomato and cucumber samples. The determination was carried out by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). In the DSPE-DLLME-SFO, the analytes were first extracted with acetone. The clean-up of the extract by DSPE was carried out by directly adding activated carbon sorbent into the extract solution, followed by shaking and filtration. Under the optimum conditions, the proposed method was sensitive and showed a good linearity within a range of 2–500 ng/g, with the correlation coefficients ( r ) varying from 0.9991 to 0.9996. The enrichment factors ranged from 127 to 138. The limit of detections (LODs) were in the range of 0.12–0.68 ng/g, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) for 50 ng/g of each analytes in tomato samples were in the range of 3.25–6.26 % ( n = 5). The proposed method was successfully applied for the extraction and determination of the mentioned analytes residues in tomato and cucumber samples, and satisfactory results were obtained.

A novel DOPO-based phosphorus- and nitrogen-containing monomer named DOPO-DAAM was synthesized and grafted onto the surface of polyamide 66 (PA 66) fabrics via UV grafting in order to improve the flame retardancy. To facilitate the grafting efficiency, the PA66 fabric surface was first modified through the HCl treatment. In the UL-94 vertical burning test, the PA66 fabrics treated with DOPO-DAAM could stop the melt-dripping. Cone calorimetry results showed that a 22% reduction in peak heat release rate was achieved for PA66 fabrics grafted with 20 wt % DOPO-DAAM. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the presence of grafted monomer catalyzed the degradation pathway of virgin PA66 fabrics where the initial decomposition temperature was reduced and the char yield was enhanced for all treated fabric samples. Moreover, real time FTIR analysis confirmed that the DOPO-DAAM decomposed ahead of virgin PA66 and catalyzed the formation of char residue.
