Cu5(VO4)2(OH)4 (turanite) is a layered compound, exhibiting a copper(II) oxide layer in the [0 1 1] plane composed of edge-sharing CuO6 octahedra. Each Cu–O layer is further separated by VO4 tetrahedra. Closer scrutiny found that the copper(II) oxide layer in the compound represents a totally new geometrically-frustrated lattice, a 1/6 depleted triangular lattice. More specifically, the spin network in the [0 1 1] plane is formed by the alternate ranking of triangular and honeycomb strips. Magnetic measurements show that the Cu5(VO4)2(OH)4 behaves as a spin-1/2 ferrimagnet with a Tc = ∼4.5 K. It exhibits an unusual 1/5 magnetization plateau arising from the competition between antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic interactions caused by the strong frustration. The possible spin-arrangements are also suggested.

Cu-based Fenton-like systems have demonstrated high effectiveness in the degradation of organic pollutants, however, challenges still exist to overcome the sluggish cycling of metal ions and fast activation of reactants. Herein, a novel n-p type Cu 2 (OH) 3 F/Cu 2 O photo-Fenton-like catalyst (CFC) was prepared with in-situ reduction of Cu 2 (OH) 3 F and applied for tetracycline hydrochloride degradation. Under optimized condition, the target catalyst (CFC-5) showed excellent activity, achieving a degradation efficiency of approximately 99.93 % in 30 min. The reaction rate constant with CFC-5 was 4.10 and 3.26 times higher than that of Cu 2 (OH) 3 F and Cu 2 O, respectively. Moreover, the Cu 2 (OH) 3 F/Cu 2 O catalyst exhibited highly cycling stability and broad applicability. The results illustrate that construction of Cu 2 (OH) 3 F/Cu 2 O composites facilitates the charge separation and enhances Cu 2+ /Cu + cycling, which benefits the generation of highly oxidizing active species and thus significantly improved the degradation efficiency. Besides, this study offers a versatile method to construct inexpensive and efficient photo-Fenton-like heterojunction catalysts.

The slow redox rate of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in neutral environments makes the H2O2 sensor inadequate for the detection of low levels of signalling molecules. The aim of this study is to fabricate a flexible sensing electrode by hydrothermally loading micro-nanometer Ni and Co(OH)2 on carbon cloth (CC) and electrochemically depositing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) on the surface of the electrode. The sensor presented high sensitivity (10.43 mA mM−1 cm−2), a wide detection range (0.033–120.848 mM), a low detection limit (0.92 nM), high stability, and excellent anti-interference performance in neutral solutions. Ni–Co(OH)2 provides abundant active sites while CC solves their agglomeration phenomenon and conductivity. The PEDOT film offers heightened conductivity, hydrophilicity, interfacial stability, and an electrochemically active surface area (ECSA). The side area of the chrysanthemum petal like PEDOT is 39 ± 7 times the bottom area, and PEDOT increases the ECSA of the composite to six times that of CC. Electrochemical precise control of PEDOT morphology to improve sensor performance provides a new strategy for the application of PEDOT in sensors.

Fire alarm systems are essential for protecting lives and properties from fire hazards. However, most of the existing fire alarm nanopapers rely on the resistance reduction after heating, which requires direct contact with the flame. In this study, we present a novel fire alarm nanopaper (CMPA) based on heat-triggered shape recovery. The CMPA is composed of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) as the matrix and 2D nanomaterials M(OH)(OCH 3 ) as fillers. When the temperature of CMPA exceeded the glass transition, the thrice-folded CMPA-1.0 flattened in 30s and connected to the alarm circuit based on its conductive surface. According to the results, the CMPA-1.0 with a thickness of about 0.2 mm had an efficient electromagnetic shielding of 42.1 dB. Moreover, the CMPA-1.0 self-extinguished rapidly after being ignited with its original shape preserved. The peak heat release rate of CMPA-1.0 was 108.9 W/g, which was 61.9 % lower than that of HPMC. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity of CMPA-1.0 reached to 0.317 W m −1 K −1 , which was 40.8 % higher than that of HPMC, reducing the heat accumulation effectively. This work shows that CMPA is an ideal material for sensitive and safe early fire alarm, and the strategy based on heat-triggered shape recovery is promising in fire alarm application.

Low-silica chabazite (CHA) catalysts with varying configurations of Cu 2+ -2Z and [Cu(OH)] + -Z active centers are developed through the regulation of the opening of CHA-cages. The catalysts are subsequently applied to the selective catalytic reduction of NO x by NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR) reactions. A series of characterizations and performance evaluations indicate that the density of [Cu(OH)] + -Z in eight-member rings (8MRs) is positively correlated with low-temperature performance. Moreover, the presence of partial Cu 2+ -2Z in six-member rings (6MRs) enhances activity and tolerance at high temperatures. The residual K + ions in the CHA-cages after NH 4 + exchange are retained in the 6MRs. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the residual K + ions stabilize the 6MRs structure, ensuring the entry and stable presence of the active Cu 2+ -2Z centers. In situ analysis reveals the reaction intermediates involved in the NH 3 -SCR process on representative catalysts. These findings can further elucidate the active centers of CHA-type catalysts and guide the design of commercial catalysts.

Herein, a novel molecularly imprinted gel (MIG)-based electrochemical sensor equipped with hydrated zirconium oxide@hollow carbon spheres (ZrO(OH) 2 @HCS) was developed for highly sensitive and selective detection of tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) in foods. The MIG was synthesized by using L-histidine to rapidly cross-link cationic guar gum, acrylamide and TBHQ through intermolecular hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions at room temperature, which offered outstanding specific recognition performance for TBHQ. ZrO(OH) 2 @HCS possessing excellent conductivity and water dispersibility was employed for signal amplification. Under optimal conditions, the MIG-ZrO(OH) 2 @HCS/GCE sensor showed a wide dynamic detection range (0.025–100 μM) with a low limit of detection (6.7 nM). TBHQ recovery experiments were conducted in spiked peanut oil and milk powder, yielding excellent recoveries. Moreover, the sensor was successfully utilized to detect TBHQ levels in snowflake chicken cutlets, crispy fried pork and boneless chicken fillets, and the results were in agreement with those obtained by the high performance liquid chromatography method.

Using urea oxidation reaction (UOR) instead of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is one of promising strategies for significantly diminish power consumption for hydrogen production from electrochemical water splitting. The electrocatalysts with cost-effective, multifunctional and high-performance are urgently required for enhancing UOR and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), but this remains a challenge. Herein, we designed a bifunctional Ni(OH) x /p-Ni catalyst by electrochemical oxidation of Ni(OH) 2 in-situ grown on the surface of porous Ni membrane (p-Ni) to generate more abundant high-valence Ni 3+ active species, which is favorable for reducing the energy barrier of electrochemical reaction . At the same time, a large number of metallic oxygen bonds (Ni–O) were formed to optimize the reaction kinetics of the electrochemical process, thus promoting the overall urea electrolysis efficiency. In 1.0 M KOH with 0.3 M urea, the optimized Ni(OH) x /p-Ni only requires potentials of 1.38 V and 0.22 V to obtain a current density of 100 mA cm −2 for UOR and HER, respectively. Notably, by assembling the Ni(OH) x /p-Ni as the cathode and anode for hydrogen production from urea-assisted water splitting, it can drive a current density of 100 mA cm −2 at a low voltage of 1.52 V and has excellent stability. This work provides a feasible strategy for design efficiently non-noble metal electrocatalysts for energy-saving hydrogen production and purifying urea-rich wastewater.

s The development of a new type of photocatalyst for multiple deep degradation of phenol in wastewater together with the elucidation of the method for this process are highly significant in the treatment of sewage. In this report, three-dimensional heterostructured La(OH)CO 3 /NiAl-LDHs composite catalysts were prepared by loading ultrathin NiAl-LDHs onto La(OH)CO 3 substrates using a hydrothermal synthesis method and an in-situ growth technique. Photocatalytic experimental studies showed that La(OH)CO 3 /NiAl-LDHs could remove up to 97 % of (degrade) phenol from water, which was 5.86 and nearly two-fold greater than pure NiAl-LDHs and La(OH)CO 3 . Even after 5 cycles, La(OH)CO 3 /NiAl-LDHs still sustains an excellent photocatalytic stability (93.6 % phenol degradation). Fabrication of ultrathin NiAl-LDHs greatly enhanced the surface expanse of the composites from 1.442 m 2 /g to 140.16 m 2 /g, exposing more active sites. According to the in-situ XPS analysis under irradiation and the capture of active species on La(OH)CO 3 /NiAl-LDHs, the electrons would be transferred from La(OH)CO 3 to ultrathin NiAl-LDHs. The S-type heterointerfaces formed at the La(OH)CO 3 substrate with ultrathin NiAl-LDHs nanosheets effectively inhibited carrier complexation and improved the catalytic performance. Meanwhile, the formation of oxygen vacancies between La(OH)CO 3 and NiAl-LDHs further enhanced the photocatalytic activity. The photocatalytic degradation mechanism of phenol showed that the main radicals of this catalytic reaction were •O 2 - and •OH. The three-dimensional stratified staging engaged with La(OH)CO 3 and the ultrathin NiAl-LDHs mixed nanosheet faces offered a new path to advance superlative catalysts to treat sewage.

Catalysts in-situ reconstructed from transition metal sulfides for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) have been regarded as potential alternatives for the noble metal catalysts . Intriguingly, it was found that the self-optimized SO 4 2− @Cu doped Co(OH) 2 catalyst was reconstructed from bimetallic sulfide of CuCo 2 S 4 . During the OER process, the copper was partially leached and meantime doped into the in-situ generated Co(OH) 2 with SO 4 2− adsorption, while only oxides were discovered in counterparts of mono-metal sulfides. As a result, the SO 4 2− @Cu doped Co(OH) 2 catalyst exhibited superior OER performances, with low overpotentials of 211/272 mV to achieve the current densities of 10/100 mA cm −2 , exceeding the counterparts reconstructed from mono-metal sulfides. Experimental and theoretical results suggested that the in situ generated Cu doped Co(OH) 2 possessed thin and loosely layered structure with expanded lattice spacing (lattice spacing expanded from 0.28 nm to 0.46 nm) due to the SO 4 2− adsorption, making the intermediates more accessible to the active centers. In addition, the catalyst surface changed from hydrophobicity to super hydrophilicity , which greatly accelerated the mass transfer. This work indicated that the in-situ reconstruction process was greatly influenced by the interactions between metal sites and sulfide species, directly influencing the OER performances of the reconstructed catalysts.

Limited studies have demonstrated that inorganic arsenic exposure is positively associated with serum vitamin D levels, although the correlation between urinary arsenic species and serum vitamin D has not been investigated in areas of water-borne arsenicosis. A cross-sectional study of 762 participants was conducted in Wenshui Country, Shanxi Province, a water-borne arsenicosis area. The results showed a positive relationship between urinary arsenic species (inorganic arsenic (iAs), methylarsonic acid (MMAV), dimethylarsinic acid (DMAV) and serum 25(OH)D. Log-binomial regression analysis indicated a 0.4% increase in the risk of vitamin D excess for every 1-unit increment in the Box–Cox transformed urinary DMAVafter adjustment for covariates. After stratifying populations by inorganic arsenic methylation metabolic capacity, serum 25(OH)D levels in the populations with iAs% above the median and primary methylation index (PMI) below the median increased by 0.064 ng/mL (95% CI: 0.032 to 0.096) for every one-unit increase in the Box–Cox transformed total arsenic (tAs) levels. Serum 25(OH)D levels increased by 0.592 ng/mL (95% CI: 0.041 to 1.143) for every one-unit rise in the Box–Cox transformed iAs levels in people with skin hyperkeratosis. Overall, our findings support a positive relationship between urinary arsenic species and serum 25(OH)D. It was recommended that those residing in regions with water-borne arsenicosis should take moderate vitamin D supplements to avoid vitamin D poisoning.

Micro–nano structures with hydrophobic properties are promising in self-cleaning, anti-corrosion, and anti-icing performance. Here, we report a solvothermal method to construct micro–nano structures on Al–Li alloy by introduction oleylamine. The results show the concentration of oleylamine has an effect on morphology and hydrophobic property of micro–nano structures formed on Al–Li alloy. The X-ray diffraction results indicates the micro–nano structure is mixture with AlOOH and Al(OH) 3 . When the concentration of oleylamine is about 0.48 mol/L, the length of micro–nano structures is up to microscale, the width of micro–nano structures is about 100–200 nm, and the water contact angle can achieve 152.3°. Graphical A hydrothermal solution was prepared by mixing oleylamine, sodium formate, and DMF. Then, the uniform mixed solution was successfully used to prepare micro–nano structures on the surface of Al–Li alloy by a one-step hydrothermal method. The results show that when the concentration of oleylamine reaches the optimal level (0.48 mol/L), the micro–nano structure is uniform and the voids are filled with air, thus forming a superhydrophobic state.

Conformal hydrolysis of MOF precursors is a promising strategy to prepare hierarchical metal hydroxide electrode materials on a large scale with low cost and high efficiency. However, a complete transformation is challenging due to the normal “outside-in” conversion process. After studying the hydrolysis of Ni-MOF-74, which has regular 1D channels, we suggest that the transformation to Ni(OH)2 can occur simultaneously outside and within the precursor depending on the treatment temperature. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal that a higher temperature weakens the steric effects of OH− ions and facilitates the diffusion in the regular channels, and therefore, a complete transformation from Ni-MOF-74 to Ni(OH)2 is achieved. It is for the first time demonstrated that the 1D channels of MOFs are utilized for the complete conformal hydrolysis of Ni-MOF-74 to Ni(OH)2 electrode materials. Meanwhile, we also perform pioneering work illustrating that the complete conformal hydrolysis is the key to the improved supercapacitor performances of the MOF-derived Ni(OH)2 electrodes. The prepared Ni(OH)2 electrode under the optimized conditions has a specific capacity of 713.2 C g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1, which is at least 28% larger than those of the Ni(OH)2 prepared at other temperatures. The detailed analyses based on CV and EIS of the obtained Ni(OH)2 electrodes indicate that the residual MOFs within electrodes due to incomplete hydrolysis significantly influence the diffusion length and diffusion efficiency of OH−, drastically lowering the supercapacitor performances.
