TETA or TETA-AEP mixtures were used as an activator to enhance CO2 capture in the MDEA solution. The effect of amount and type of activators, and the viscosity of absorbents on CO2 capture were discussed. The results showed that the positive effect of TETA-AEP mixtures on CO2 capture in the MDEA solution was greater than that of TETA. The optimal absorbent was No. V, whose CO2 absorption capacity/desorption efficiency was 3.08 times/1.18 times of No. І. The viscosity had a little influence on CO2 absorption and an obvious effect on CO2 desorption.

Biodiesel has been considered as one of the feasible attempts to replace the fossil fuels. Alcohols always played a role as the additives to improve the certain properties of biodiesel. In this work, the liquid thermal conductivity of binary mixtures of methyl laurate usually the significant biodiesel component with three alcohols (1-propanol, 1-butanol and 1-pentanol) was measured with the temperature ranging within 287 K to 358 K at atmospheric pressure. The total standard uncertainty of the experimental results was estimated to be less than 2% (in the 0.68 confidence level) and the repeatability was better than ±0.5%. In addition, three useful correlations for estimating the thermal conductivity of mixtures have been fitted and optimized, and the maximum deviation of three correlations were less than 1.30%.

The solubilities of l -malic acid in pure and mixture organic solvents were measured from 278.15 to 323.15 K using the laser monitoring observation system. The modified Apelblat equation, the semi-empirical Buchowski–Ksiazczak λh equation and the Combined Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent/Redlich (CNIBS/R-K) equation were proposed to correlate the experimental data. In pure and mixed solvents, the 100RD (relative deviation) <3.61 and 7.58, respectively, the 10 4 RMSD (root-mean-square deviations) <3.07 and 2.28, respectively, so the equations selected in this work fit the data very well. Van’t Hoff equation was used to predict the dissolution enthalpy and entropy of l -malic acid in the corresponding solvents.

Interfacial modulation has been considered an effective strategy to enhance the thermoelectric (TE) performance by decoupling thermal and electrical parameters. However, inappropriate interfacial heterojunctions can significantly deteriorate electrical transport while enhancing phonon scattering, which causes no substantial improvement in TE performance. Herein, we introduce two-dimensional graphene or MXene into the Mg3.2Sb0.5Bi1.49Te0.01 matrix by ball mixing combined with rapid sintering to modify the composition and structure at the interface. The differences in morphology, size and distribution of interfacial graphene and MXene lead to distinct results which show that incorporated graphene flakes with larger size hinder the carrier transport, while the homogeneously dispersed tiny MXene provides improved carrier channels and boosts the mobility. On the other hand, such uniformly diffused heterogeneous MXene structures create stronger scattering on phonons compared to enriched graphene phases, resulting in a low lattice thermal conductivity of ∼0.66 W m−1 K−1 and enhanced zT of ∼1.0 at 513 K in Mg3.2Sb0.5Bi1.49Te0.01-0.6 wt% MXene with good component stability in air. This work highlights the importance of size, concentration, and distribution in the interfacial modulation strategy, demonstrating an effective method for developing high TE performance Mg3(Sb, Bi)2-based near-room-temperature materials.

Micelle-to-vesicle aggregate transition is investigated in this work through the addition of β-cyclodextrin 1 (β-CD) in mixed catanionic surfactant aqueous solutions. The catanionic system is composed of 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (C 16 mimCl) and sodium oleate (NaOle) which are cationic surfactant and anionic surfactant, respectively. The mixed surfactant solutions can self −assemble into micelles, which are studied by dynamic light scattering measurements and the calculation of molecular interaction parameter. The inclusion complexation of β-CD to C 16 mimCl-NaOle surfactants is studied by surface tension measurements and the calculation of association constants. The dynamic light scattering (DLS), rheological measurements, freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy(FF-TEM)were conducted to indicate that micelles can transform into vesicles with the addition of β-CD. Finally, the transformation mechanism is proposed. The main reason for micelle-to-vesicle aggregate transition is the inclusion complexation of β-CD to surfactants and it will alter the composition of mixed C 16 mimCl-NaOle surfactant systems which should be responsible for the phase behavior.

Transition trimetallic sulfide NiCoMn–S attracts great attention due to its high specific capacity for hybrid supercapacitors , as well as Ti 3 C 2 is considered essentially as a potential new electrode material with iconic two-dimensional layered structure and excellent conductivity. Herein, NiCoMn–S nanoparticles are composited with two-dimensional layered Ti 3 C 2 via simple one-step hydrothermal method , which is first applied as positive electrode in hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs). A large number of NiCoMn–S nanoparticles distribute on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 and even insert into the Ti 3 C 2 layers, providing abundant electrochemical active sites for redox reaction and enhancing the mechanical stability for composites. Moreover, the NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 composites show lower charge-transfer resistance than pure NiCoMn–S, illustrating that the two-dimensional layered structure of Ti 3 C 2 improve the conductivity and supply additional electronic channels for ion transportation. The NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% delivers a specific capacity of 347.1 C g −1 at a specific density of 1 A g −1 , which is 28% higher than that of pure NiCoMn–S (270.2 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ). Finally, a hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) is assembled by using NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% as positive electrode and RGO as negative electrode, realizing a specific capacity of 164.3 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 and high specific energy of 16.2 Wh kg −1 at a specific power of 15 kW kg −1 .

We report evaporation of ethanol/water mixture droplets on both pillar-arrayed and micro-holed polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces. Analysis of wettability shows that (i) when the pillar-to-pillar spacing is 5 μm, the pillar-arrayed PDMS surfaces are Cassie-Baxter-wetted; (ii) when the pillar-to-pillar spacing is 20 or 50 μm, part of each pillar-arrayed surface is Cassie-Baxter-wetted while the other part Wenzel-wetted; (iii) all micro-holed PDMS surfaces are Cassie-Baxter-wetted; (iv) the advancing and receding contact angles increase with the increase of the pillar-to-pillar spacing, while they decrease with the increase of the hole-to-hole spacing. The investigation on evaporation of mixture droplets demonstrates that (i) evaporation on pillar-arrayed PDMS first proceeds with constant contact radius mode (CCR) due to the strong adhesion between the surface and the droplet; (ii) on micro-holed surfaces CCR stage is also observed for the surface with the hole-to-hole spacing of 5 μm, while it is not found at high ethanol concentration for surfaces with the hole-to-hole spacings of 20 μm and 50 μm, which is attributed to the weak adhesion between the micro-holed surfaces and the droplet. Finally, the evolution of droplet volume and its two-third power are discussed.

Inorganic metal chalcohalides are significant semiconductive materials for photovoltaics, photodetetion and infrared optics. Thus it is considerably rewarding to develop a new synthetic strategy to provide more degrees of freedom for atomic coordination to tune the optical and electronic properties of metal chalcohalides. In this work, the mixed-anion strategy is performed to synthesize two new metal chalcohalides Cs2InPS4X2 (X = Cl, Br) with mixed-anion structure by the reaction of InPS4 and CsX. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that they are isostructural and crystallize in the centrosymmetric space group P21/n, consisting of zero-dimensional structure [In2P2S8X4]4− (X = Cl, Br) built from tetrahedral [PS4]3− and octahedral [InS4X2]7− (X = Cl, Br) through edge-sharing, with Cs cations filling in intervening voids. The UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy measurement reveals that Cs2InPS4Cl2 and Cs2InPS4Br2 exhibit large optical bandgaps of 3.21 eV and 3.12 eV, respectively. The electronic structure calculations show that the bandgap mainly originates from the [InS4X2]7− (X = Cl, Br) mixed-anion groups. First-principles calculations indicate that the birefringence of Cs2InPS4Cl2 and Cs2InPS4Br2 is ∼0.08 and ∼0.05 at 2090 nm, respectively. Furthermore, thermal analysis reveals that the Cs2InPS4X2 (X = Cl, Br) are thermostable up to 400 °C. This discovery enriches the structural diversity of inorganic chalcohalides and provides an insight for the exploration of new semiconductive materials.

Background and objectives In this study, Kluyveromyces marxianus with ability to produce β-glucosidase was used to preferment wheat bran (WB) and release a mixture of natural enzymes for improving dough performance and bread quality. Five different enzyme activities were analyzed. The effect of the prefermented WB with enzyme mixture on stickiness and microstructure of dough, ferulic acid release in bread, and molecular weight distribution of arabinoxylan were evaluated using Texture Analyzer, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), HPLC, and high-performance gel filtration chromatography (HPGFC). Findings Kluyveromyces marxianus exhibited abundant extracellular β-glucosidase activity (up to 6.98 U/g). The main enzymes released in prefermented bran were endoglucanase and exoglucanase, β-glucosidase, xylanase, and ferulate esterases. These enzymes were active during bread making (only prefermented bran added as improver or combined with xylanase) and affected solubility and molecular weight distribution of dietary fiber, which resulted in positive improvement of dough performance, release of phenolic acid, and overall quality of the breads. The changes observed were attributed to the extracellular enzymes from K. marxianus and endogenous enzymes activated during prefermentation, thus enhancing the WB functionality in bread. Conclusions Wheat bran bioprocessing using high enzyme producing yeasts increases functional application of wheat bran in baked products. Significance and novelty This study added new knowledge for developing a natural enzyme-based improver for bran-enriched baked products in the food industry.

The poor interface between the active materials, solid electrolytes, and conductive additives in composite cathode materials is the key factor restricting the performance of the all-solid-state lithium-sulfur battery. Here, the composite cathode material was prepared through the method of one-step ball milling. The sulfide electrolyte Li 3 PS 4 (LPS) was formed on the surface of the active material Li 2 S while the conductive additives were incorporated, and the conductive ions and electronic network were constructed simultaneously. After adding an appropriate amount of carbon nanotubes (cnt), the composite cathode exhibited high specific capacity of 1145.2 mAh g −1 after 30 times of cycling at a current density of 0.2 mA cm −2 , and the battery with ultrahigh areal Li 2 S loading also displays high capacity of 962.6 mA g −1 . The composite cathode with high Li 2 S content (56.3%) was prepared, with excellent performance exhibited: the capacity is 741 mAh g −1 after 30 times of cycling at a current density of 0.2 mA cm −2 .
Without additional sulfide electrolyte, the composite cathode materials were prepared by one-step ball milling with lithium sulfide, phosphorus pentasulfide, acetylene black, and carbon nanotubes as raw materials.

Electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices that combine high-performance are essential to resolve the extreme shortage of non-renewable energy sources and environmental issues. Nickel oxide (NiO) is considered to be a promising EES cathode material because of its ultra-high theoretical specific capacitance, whereas the practical applications are greatly limited with poor rate and cycle performance. Herein, we report the yolk-shelled NiO/Ni composites (YS NiO/Ni) that exhibit good charge storage capability in the aqueous electrolyte with high specific capacitance (2207.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), exceptional rate capability, and ultra-high cycling stability (95.8% retention after 10,000 cycles). The superior property can be ascribed to the special yolk-shelled structure that exposes more redox reaction active sites, and the associate Ni nanoparticles with flower-like NiO which can improve electron transfer as current collectors.

In this work, the irradiation response of A 2 Ti 2 O 7 (A represents rare earth elements of Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Yb and Nd) series ceramics were systematically studied under 3 MeV Au 2+ ions. The structural changes pre- and post-irradiation were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) and Raman spectroscopy . After heavy ion irradiation , all the samples undergo structural transformations from ordered pyrochlore to disordered fluorite and then to amorphous phase. The sample surface became fully amorphous when exposed to the maximum irradiation dose. The 5RETO high-entropy pyrochlore exhibits the lowest rate of amorphization during the process of structural transformation. The cation radius ratio and mixed entropy are the primary factors influencing amorphization rate. The cation radius ratio shows a strong positive correlation with the amorphization rate, while the mixed entropy demonstrates a weak negative correlation with the amorphization rate. The cation radius ratio can thus serve as a reliable indicator for predicting the radiation resistance of high-entropy pyrochlore ceramics.
