In this study, sulfur vacancies were introduced into an S-scheme AgIn_(5)S_(8)/Bi_(2)S_(3) heterojunction via an in situ hydrothermal method. The sulfur vacancies induced charge density redistribution within the heterojunction and generated efficient active sites for electrons, thereby creating a localized electron-rich environment. The synergistic effects of the sulfur vacancies, internal electric field, and defect energy levels accelerated the separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers via the S-scheme pathway, thereby enhancing the visible-light photocatalytic performance, by achieving a Cr(Ⅵ) reduction efficiency of 99.6%. More importantly, the long-term stability and excellent anti-interference capability of the S-scheme AgIn_(5)S_(8)/Bi_(2)S_(3) heterojunction demonstrate its practical application potential, achieving 98.9% Cr(Ⅵ) removal from real electroplating wastewater and meeting discharge standards. This work provides a theoretical basis for constructing highly-catalytic S-scheme heterojunctions and serves as a promising solution for Cr(VI)-containing electroplating wastewater treatment.展开更多

文摘The rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers and the poor stability of metal sulfides remain bottlenecks limiting their practical applications. In this study, sulfur vacancies were introduced into an S-scheme AgIn_(5)S_(8)/Bi_(2)S_(3) heterojunction via an in situ hydrothermal method. The sulfur vacancies induced charge density redistribution within the heterojunction and generated efficient active sites for electrons, thereby creating a localized electron-rich environment. The synergistic effects of the sulfur vacancies, internal electric field, and defect energy levels accelerated the separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers via the S-scheme pathway, thereby enhancing the visible-light photocatalytic performance, by achieving a Cr(Ⅵ) reduction efficiency of 99.6%. More importantly, the long-term stability and excellent anti-interference capability of the S-scheme AgIn_(5)S_(8)/Bi_(2)S_(3) heterojunction demonstrate its practical application potential, achieving 98.9% Cr(Ⅵ) removal from real electroplating wastewater and meeting discharge standards. This work provides a theoretical basis for constructing highly-catalytic S-scheme heterojunctions and serves as a promising solution for Cr(VI)-containing electroplating wastewater treatment.

文摘Magnesium(Mg)alloys face a critical challenge in balancing performance optimization and unintended density increases caused by high-density secondary phases.To address this,machine learning was employed to predict the density and volume of Mg-containing binary phases,aiming to guide lightweight alloy design.Using 211 experimentally observed data points,five machine learning(ML)algorithms—Random Forest(RF),Support Vector Machine(SVM),Artificial Neural Network(ANN),K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN),and Bayesian Ridge(Bayes)—were trained and tested.Quantitative results showed that RF achieved exceptional performance in volume prediction,with a testing coefficient of determination(R^(2))exceeding 0.96 and a mean absolute error(MAE)of 41.0Å^(3),while SVM outperformed others in density prediction with a testing R^(2) of 0.885 and MAE of 0.421 g/cm^(3).Feature importance analysis revealed that atomic count is the primary determinant of phase volume,whereas density prediction depends on the synergistic interaction of relative atomic mass and stoichiometric ratio,as further validated by SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)analysis.This work establishes a physics-informed predictive model that accelerates the development of lightweight Mg alloys by mitigating high-density secondary phases,and can be extended to other alloy systems.

文摘Bioprinting of cell-laden hydrogels is a rapidly growing field in tissue engineering.The advent of digital light processing(DLP)three-dimensional(3D)bioprinting technique has revolutionized the fabrication of complex 3D structures.By adjusting light exposure,it becomes possible to control the mechanical properties of the structure,a critical factor in modulating cell activities.To better mimic cell densities in real tissues,recent progress has been made in achieving high-cell-density(HCD)printing with high resolution.However,regulating the stiffness in HCD constructs remains challenging.The large volume of cells greatly affects the light-based DLP bioprinting by causing light absorption,reflection,and scattering.Here,we introduce a neural network-based machine learning technique to predict the stiffness of cell-laden hydrogel scaffolds.Using comprehensive mechanical testing data from 3D bioprinted samples,the model was trained to deliver accurate predictions.To address the demand of working with precious and costly cell types,we employed various methods to ensure the generalizability of the model,even with limited datasets.We demonstrated a transfer learning method to achieve good performance for a precious cell type with a reduced amount of data.The chosen method outperformed many other machine learning techniques,offering a reliable and efficient solution for stiffness prediction in cell-laden scaffolds.This breakthrough paves the way for the next generation of precision bioprinting and more customized tissue engineering.

文摘To address the issues of unknown target size,blurred edges,background interference and low contrast in infrared small target detection,this paper proposes a method based on density peaks searching and weighted multi-feature local difference.Firstly,an improved high-boost filter is used for preprocessing to eliminate background clutter and high-brightness interference,thereby increasing the probability of capturing real targets in the density peak search.Secondly,a triple-layer window is used to extract features from the area surrounding candidate targets,addressing the uncertainty of small target sizes.By calculating multi-feature local differences between the triple-layer windows,the problems of blurred target edges and low contrast are resolved.To balance the contribution of different features,intra-class distance is used to calculate weights,achieving weighted fusion of multi-feature local differences to obtain the weighted multi-feature local differences of candidate targets.The real targets are then extracted using the interquartile range.Experiments on datasets such as SIRST and IRSTD-IK show that the proposed method is suitable for various complex types and demonstrates good robustness and detection performance.

文摘Electrically assisted forming(EAF)is a reliable method of reducing the deformation resistance of metallic materials and enhancing their formability.In this study,the mechanical properties and microstructure of Al_(0.5)CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy(HEA)under electrically assisted compression(EAC)were investigated.The results showed that the flow stress decreased with increasing current density in the EAC.Specifically,the flow curves exhibited S-shaped softening at a higher current density,which was dominated by the non-uniform distribution of the Joule heating temperature during EAC.When the flow stress was fixed at 500 MPa and 80 A·mm^(−2),compressible deformation amounts of 63.7%were observed at a strain rate of 1 s−1,indicating full compression of Al_(0.5)CoCrFeNi HEA at low-stress levels.Based on the microstructure,the flowability of Al_(0.5)CoCrFeNi HEA was improved during EAC,and the flow direction shifted from 45°to the horizontal direction.The current density,which influences the Joule heating temperature and strain rate,synergistically affects the stacking fault energy(SFE)and critical resolved shear stress(CRSS),which affect the tendency for twinning behavior.Thererfore,deformation nanoscale twins(DTs)were observed,indicating a shift in the deformation mechanisms from dislocation slip domination to a mixed pattern of dislocation slip and twinning.This study confirmed the deformability of Al_(0.5)CoCrFeNi HEA during EAC and provided an experimental foundation and theoretical support for the formation of HEAs.

文摘Layered sodium cobaltate(Na_(x)CoO_(2)),characterized by CoO_(2) slabs and intralayer edge-shared CoO_6 octahedra,holds promising potential as an electrocatalyst for chlorine evolution reaction(CER).However,the suboptimal adsorption of the intermediate on Na_(x)CoO_(2) resulted in unsatisfactory activity.Herein,Na_(x)CoO_(2) flakes with varying sodium densities(x=0.6,0.7,0.9)were engineered for efficient CER.Excitingly,the optimal Na_(0.7)CoO_(2) achieves an ultralow overpotential(55.47 mV)outperforming commercial RuO_(2) at 10 mA/cm^(2),while remaining inactive toward the competing OER.Experimental and theoretical calculations demonstrate that appropriate interlayer sodium density has optimized the d-band center level of Co atoms in Na_(x)CoO_(2),thereby weakening the strength of Co-Cl bonds.This modulation facilitates the adsorption-desorption equilibrium of Cl species(ΔG_(Cl^(*))=-0.109 eV)on the surface and kinetically accelerating Cl_2 release.This work is anticipated to elucidate the mechanism by which interlayer sodium density modifies the catalytic performance of Na_(x)CoO_(2),and present new insights for the rational design of advanced CER electrocatalysts.

文摘The large current density of electrochemical CO_(2)reduction towards industrial application is challenging.Herein,without strong acid and reductant,the synthesized BiVO_(4)with abundant oxygen vacancies(Ovs)exhibited a high formate Faradaic efficiency(FE)of 97.45%(-0.9 V)and a large partial current density of-45.82 mA/cm^(2)(-1.2 V).The good performance benefits from the reconstruction of BiVO_(4)to generate active metal Bi sites,which results in the electron redistribution to boost the OCHO∗formation.In flow cells,near industrial current density of 183.94 mA/cm^(2)was achieved,with the FE of formate above 95%from 20mA/cm^(2)to 180mA/cm^(2).Our work provides a facily synthesized BiVO_(4)precatalyst for CO_(2)electroreduction.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))oxidation and reduction reactions(HPOR/HPRR)are pivotal in various innovative electrochemical energy conversion devices.A comprehensive understanding of these mechanisms is critical for catalyst design and performance improvement in these applications.In this work,we systematically investigate the HPOR/HPRR mechanisms on low-index Pt surfaces,specifically Pt(111),Pt(100)and Pt(110),through density functional theory(DFT)calculations combined with the computational hydrogen electrode(CHE)model.For HPOR,all the low-index Pt surfaces exhibit a unified potential-determining step(PDS)involving the electrochemical oxidation of hydroperoxyl intermediates(HOO*).The binding free energy of HOO*(Δ_(GHOO*))emerges as an activity descriptor,with Pt(110)exhibiting the highest HPOR activity.The HPRR mechanism follows a chem-electrochemical(C-EC)pathway.The rate-determining step(RDS)of HPRR is either the cleavage of the HO-OH bond(chemical)or the reduction of HO(electrochemical),depending on their respective activation energies.These activation energies are functions of the HO*binding free energy,Δ_(GHO*),establishingΔ_(GHO*)as the descriptor for HPRR activity prediction.Pt(111)and Pt(100)are identified as the most active HPRR catalysts among the studied metal surfaces,although they still experience a significant overpotential.The scaling relationship betweenΔ_(GHOO*)andΔ_(GHO*)reveals a thermodynamic coupling of HPOR and HPRR,explaining their occurrence on Pt surfaces.These findings provide important insights and activity descriptors for both HPOR and HPRR,providing valuable guidance for the design of electrocatalysts in H_(2)O_(2)-related energy applications and fuel cells.

文摘AIM:To assess the variations in photoreceptor cell packing density(PCPD)across the retina among young healthy individuals with emmetropia,low and moderate myopia.METHODS:High-resolution adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy(AOSLO)systems were utilized for retinal imaging with a large sampling window of 700μm×700μm.The study cohort included 14 emmetropic[spherical equivalent(SE)ranged+0.5 to-0.5 D],15 low myopic(SE ranged-0.5 to-3 D)and 21 moderate myopic(SE ranged-3 to-6 D)healthy young adults.Photoreceptors at 3°temporal,6°superior and inferior 6°were captured.Statistical analysis was then performed to obtain PCPD and cell spacing.RESULTS:The average age of participants was 22.54±2.86(ranged 20–30y)with no difference among 3 groups.At 3°temporal,the emmetropic group exhibited the highest PCPD of 15186.16±2050.54 cells/mm^(2),while the low and moderate myopic groups had PCPD of 14009.15±1073.01 and 13466.92±1121.71 cells/mm2,respectively.At 3°temporal,the emmetropic group also had the smallest cell spacing at 6.66±0.26 mm,compared to 6.85±0.26 and 6.91±0.28 mm for the low and moderate myopic groups,respectively.Compared to the emmetropic group,at 3°temporal,the myopic groups showed significantly reduced PCPD(low myopia:P=0.032;moderate myopia:P=0.001).At 6°inferior,the moderate myopic group exhibited a significant decrease in PCPD(P=0.013),while at 6°superior,there were no significant statistical differences in PCPD for the low and moderate myopic groups(P>0.05).In comparison to the emmetropic group,only the moderate myopic group showed significantly increased cell spacing at all three positions(temporal 3°:P=0.011,superior 6°:P=0.046,inferior 6°:P=0.013).Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between PCPD and axial length changes(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Reduced PCPD and increased cell spacing strongly correlated with refractive error in mild to moderate myopic eyes,especially at 6°inferior to the fovea and the decreased PCPD in the macular region of myopic patients may be associated with increased axial lengthinduced retinal stretching.

文摘In this study,a novel cost-effective methodology was developed to enhance the gas barrier properties and permselectivity of unfilled natural rubber(NR)/polybutadiene rubber(BR)composites through the construction of a heterogeneous structure using pre-vulcanized powder rubber to replace traditional fillers.The matrix material is composed of a blend of NR and BR,which is widely used in tire manufacturing.By incorporating pre-vulcanized trans-1,4-poly(isoprene-co-butadiene)(TBIR)rubber powder(pVTPR)with different cross-linking densities and contents,significant improvements in the gas barrier properties and CO_(2)permselectivity of the NR/BR/pVTPR composites were observed.The results indicated that compared to NR/BR/TBIR composites prepared through direct blending of NR,BR,and TBIR,the NR/BR/pVTPR composites exhibited markedly superior gas barrier properties.Increasing the cross-linking density of pVTPR resulted in progressive enhancement of the gas barrier properties of the NR/BR/pVTPR composite.For example,the addition of 20 phr pVTPR with a cross-linking density of 346 mol/m^(3)resulted in a 79%improvement in the oxygen barrier property of NR/BR/pVTPR compared to NR/BR,achieving a value of 5.47×10^(-14)cm^(3)·cm·cm^(-2)·s^(-1)·Pa^(-1).Similarly,the nitrogen barrier property improved by 76%compared to NR/BR,reaching 2.4×10^(-14)cm^(3)·cm·cm^(-2)·s^(-1)·Pa^(-1),which is 28%higher than the conventional inner liner material brominated butyl rubber(BIIR,PN2=3.32×10^(-14)cm^(3)·cm·cm^(-2)·s^(-1)·Pa^(-1)).Owing to its low cost,exceptional gas barrier properties,superior adhesion to various tire components,and co-vulcanization capabilities,the NR/BR/pVTPR composite has emerged as a promising alternative to butyl rubber in the inner liner of tires.Furthermore,by fine-tuning the cross-linking density of pVTPR,the high-gas-barrier NR/BR/pVTPR composites also demonstrated remarkable CO_(2)permselectivity,with a CO_(2)/N2 selectivity of 61.4 and a CO_(2)/O_(2)selectivity of 26.12.This innovation provides a novel strategy for CO_(2)capture and separation,with potential applications in future environmental and industrial processes.The multifunctional NR/BR/pVTPR composite,with its superior gas barrier properties and CO_(2)permselectivity,is expected to contribute to the development of safer,greener,and more cost-effective transportation solutions.

文摘Lithium plating/stripping occurs at the a node/electrolyte interface which involves the flow of electrons from the current collector and the migration of lithium ions from the solid-electrolyte interphase(SEI).The dual continuous rapid transport of interfacial electron/ion is required for homogeneous Li deposition.Herein,we propose a strategy to improve the Li metal anode performance by rationally regulating the interfacial electron density and Li ion transport through the SEI film.This key technique involves decreasing the interfacial oxygen density of biomass-derived carbon host by regulating the arrangement of the celluloses precursor fibrils.The higher specific surface area and lower interfacial oxygen density decrease the local current density and ensure the formation of thin and even SEI film,which stabilized Li^(+)transfer through the Li/electrolyte interface.Moreover,the improved graphitization and the interconnected conducting network enhance the surface electronegativity of carbon and enable uninterruptible electron conduction.The result is continuous and rapid coupled interfacial electron/ion transport at the anode/electrolyte reaction interface,which facilitates uniform Li deposition and improves Li anode performance.The Li/C anode shows a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 98%and a long-term lifespan of over 150cycles at a practical low N/P(negative-to-positive)ratio of 1.44 in full cells.

文摘To synergistically recover alumina and alkali from red mud(RM),the structural stability and conversion mechanism of hydroandradite(HA)from hydrogarnet(HG)were investigated via the First-principles,XRF,XRD,PSD and SEM methods,and a novel hydrothermal process based on the conversion principle was finally proposed.The crystal structure simulation shows that the HA with varied silicon saturation coefficients is more stable than HG,and the HA with a high iron substitution coefficient is more difficult to be converted from HG.The(110)plane of Fe_(2)O_(3) is easier to combine with HG to form HA,and the binding energy is 81.93 kJ/mol.The effects of raw material ratio,solution concentration and hydrothermal parameters on the conversion from HG to HA were revealed,and the optimal conditions for the alumina recovery were obtained.The recovery efficiencies of alumina and Na_(2)O from the RM are 63.06%and 97.34%,respectively,and the Na_(2)O content in the treated RM is only 0.13%.

文摘The effect of adding hydroxycinnamic acids(caffeic acid,sinapic acid,p-coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid)in Cabernet Sauvignon dry red wine before and after fermentation was investigated,taking into account the color parameters,anthocyanin content,and overall polyphenol levels in the wine samples.The copigmentation effect of malvidin-3-Oglucoside and sinapic acid was further explored in model solution and through theoretical calculations.The results indicated that the addition of hydroxycinnamic acids significantly enhanced the wine's color with sinapic acid(before the fermentation)showing the most pronounced color protection effect.Compared to control samples,the addition of hydroxycinnamic acids resulted in a 36%increase in total phenolic content and a 28% increase in total anthocyanin content.Thermodynamic analysis revealed that the interaction between sinapic acid and malvidin-3-O-glucoside was spontaneous and exothermic.Theoretical studies identified hydrogen bonding(HB)and dispersion forces as the main primary stabilizing forces,with the carboxyl group of sinapic acid playing a critical role while the anthocyanin backbone also influenced the interaction.

文摘The demand for ^(238)Pu(nuclear battery heat source)drives the separation of its precursor,^(237)Np,from spent nuclear fuel(SNF).However,the co-existence of multi-valence states(IV/V/VI)of Np and similar redox behavior with Pu(IV)hinder the effective separation of Np.N-Butyraldehyde(n-C_(3)H_(7)CHO)selectively reduces Np(VI)to Np(V)without reducing Pu(IV).Herein,we examined the reduction mechanisms of Np(VI)and Pu(IV)by n-C_(3)H_(7)CHO using relativistic density functional theory.Based on the results of the potential energy profiles,the reductions of both Np(VI)and Pu(IV)by n-C_(3)H_(7)CHO are thermodynamically feasible,whereas only the former is kinetically achievable.It uncovers that n-C_(3)H_(7)CHO can only reduce Np(VI)to Np(V)owing to kinetically controlled selective reduction.The analyses of spin density and bond distance indicate that the reduction nature for the first Np(VI)/Pu(IV)belongs to hydrogen atom transfer,whereas that for the second one involves outer-sphere electron transfer.Localized molecular orbitals(LMOs)analysis discloses the bonding evolution during the reduction process of Np(VI)/Pu(IV).This study elucidates the reason behind the kinetically controlled selective reduction of Np(VI)/Pu(IV)by n-C_(3)H_(7)CHO at the molecular level and offers in-depth perspectives on the isolation of specific metal ions from the view of kinetic control.
