文摘The limited high-temperature oxidation resistance of Mg alloys is a key factor restricting their development and application.The addition of some rare earth elements(REs),owing to their unique physical and chemical properties,can significantly enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg alloys.Based on our previous study,we conclude that REs such as Gd,Y,and Ce enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg-RE alloys.This article comprehensively reviews recent research progress on high-temperature oxidation behavior and the potential mechanism in Mg-RE alloys.Based on the thermodynamic and kinetic analyses,the evolution of the complex oxide system formed during the high-temperature oxidation of Mg-RE alloys is first summarized.The diffusion behavior and concentration control mechanisms of REs during the oxidation process and how these mechanisms affect the sustained growth of the oxide film and antioxidant properties were elucidated.Moreover,the different structures of the oxide films were classified,and their properties were discussed.Finally,this paper introduces the applications of commonly used REs in Mg alloys and frontier research on their oxidation mechanisms.Based on the above review,we propose that future research perspectives can be explored in terms of expanding the experimental temperature range for oxidation tests,optimizing the chemical composition by adding trace REs to study their synergistic mechanism,revealing the underlying oxidation mechanism through advanced in situ microscopic characterization methods,and investigating the mechanical properties of oxide films using diverse approaches.

文摘Aggregation-induced emission(AIE)polymers have been extensively studied;however,the integration of AIE units into polyelectrolytes remains largely limited by the laborious multistep synthesis of pre-designed emissive monomers.Herein,we report a one-pot multicomponent polymerization method that directly produces main-chain charged polyelectrolytes with intrinsic AIE characteristics from non-emissive building blocks.By optimizing the monomer structures and reaction conditions,a series of soluble high-molecular-weight polymers with welldefined backbones were obtained in high yields.The resulting polyelectrolytes displayed robust AIE behavior,exhibiting fluorescence enhancement up to about 60-fold in an aqueous environment,and maintained excellent thermal stability.Owing to their cationic backbones,these polymers interact strongly with microbial surfaces and exhibit remarkable antimicrobial activities.This study establishes a synthetically efficient route to AIE polyelectrolytes and highlights their potential applications as multifunctional materials for bioimaging,antimicrobial therapy,and other applications.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘In this study,the design,analysis,manufacturing,and testing of a 3D-printed conformal microstrip array antenna for high-temperature environments is presented.3D printing technology is used to fabricate a curved ceramic substrate,and laser sintering and microdroplet spraying processes are used to add the conductive metal on the curved substrate.The problems of gain loss,bandwidth reduction,and frequency shift caused by high temperatures are addressed by using a proper antenna design,with parasitic patches,slots,and metal resonant cavities.The antenna prototype is characterized by the curved substrates and the conductive metals for the power dividers,the patch,and the ground plane;its performance is examined up to a temperature of 600℃in a muffle furnace and compared with the results from the numerical analysis.The results show that the antenna can effectively function at 600℃and even higher temperatures.

文摘Catalysts are key for olefin polymerization reactions and are also ubiquitous in catalysis science.Multinuclear metal catalysts have witnessed enhanced performances in catalytic reactions relative to mononuclear catalysts,but which substantially involve multi-step,tedious,and difficult synthesis.Herein,this study reports an intriguing approach to construct multi-nuclear catalysts for the milestoneα-diimine nickel catalysts using an oligomeric strategy.A polymerizable norbornene unit is incorporated into theα-diimine ligand backbone,leading to the formation of the monomeric nickel catalyst Ni_(1)and its corresponding oligomeric nickel catalysts(Ni_(3)and Ni_(5))with varying degrees of polymerization(DP=3 and 5).Notably,the oligomeric catalyst Ni_(5)was facilely scaled up(50 g-level),showed enhanced thermal stability,exhibited 4.6 times higher activity,and yielded polyethylene elastomer with a 379%increased molecular weight in ethylene polymerization,compared to the monomeric catalyst Ni_(1).Catalytic performance enhancements of oligomeric catalysts were found to be DP-dependent.The kilogram-scale polyethylene,produced using Ni_(5)in a 20 L reactor,presented a highly branched all-hydrocarbon structure,which demonstrated typical elastic properties(tensile strength:4 MPa,elastic recovery:SR=72%)along with great processability(MFI=3.0 g/10 min),insulating characteristics(volume resistivity=2×10^(16)Ω/m),and hydrophobicity(water vapor permeability:0.03 g/m^(2)/day),suggesting potentially practical applications.

文摘Thermosetting polymers exhibit outstanding mechanical properties,thermal stability,and chemical resistance due to their permanently cross-linked network structures.However,the irreversible nature of covalent cross-linking renders these materials non-reprocessable and non-recyclable,posing significant environmental challenges.Although healable polymers based on dynamic covalent bonds and supramolecular interactions have emerged as promising alternatives,a broadly applicable strategy utilizing metal-ligand coordination in thermoset systems remains underexplored.In this work,we present a robust and healable thermoset system fabricated via ring-opening metathesis polymerization(ROMP)of commercially available chelating norbornene comonomers.Cross-linking is accomplished through O-donor coordination to Lewis acidic metal centers,yielding polydicyclopentadiene(PDCPD)-based networks that demonstrate high mechanical strength(up to 60.8 MPa)and effective self-healing performance.This methodology offers a simple and scalable approach to developing high-performance,sustainable thermosetting materials.

文摘High-nickel ternary cathodes hold a great application prospect in solid-state lithium metal batteries to achieve high-energy density,but they still suffer from structural instability and detrimental side reactions with the solid-state electrolytes.To circumvent these issues,a continuous uniform layer polyacrylonitrile(PAN)was introduced on the surface of LiNi_(0.8)Mn_(0.1)Co_(0.1)O_(2) via in situ polymerization of acrylonitrile(AN).Furthermore,the partial-cyclized treatment of PAN(cPAN)coating layer presents high ionic and electron conductivity,which can accelerate interfacial Li+and electron diffusion simultaneously.And the thermodynamically stabilized cPAN coating layer cannot only effectively inhibit detrimental side reactions between cathode and solid-state electrolytes but also provide a homogeneous stress to simultaneously address the problems of bulk structural degradation,which contributes to the exceptional mechanical and electrochemical stabilities of the modified electrode.Besides,the coordination bond interaction between the cPAN and NCM811 can suppress the migration of Ni to elevate the stability of the crystal structure.Benefited from these,the In-cPAN-260@NCM811 shows excellent cycling performance with a retention of 86.8%after 300 cycles and superior rate capability.And endow the solid-state battery with thermal safety stability even at hightemperature extreme environment.This facile and scalable surface engineering represents significant progress in developing high-performance solid-state lithium metal batteries.

文摘Objectives:Drug resistance is the major determinant of chemotherapy failure,leading to relapse and tumor progression,demonstrating the urgent need for novel antineoplastic drugs.This study aimed to evaluate the anticancer potential of two novel pyrazole derivatives,P3C.1 and P3C.2,and to elucidate their mechanism of action in cancer cells.Methods:The cytotoxicity of the compounds was evaluated across 27 different cancer cell lines via a nuclear staining assay.Subsequent flow cytometric and biochemical analyses were performed to assess reactive oxygen species(ROS)generation,apoptosis induction,mitochondrial integrity,and cell cycle progression.Additional studies included transcriptome analyses and immunoassays to characterize the molecular mechanisms underlying drug activity.Results:Two novel pyrazole derivatives,P3C.1 and P3C.2,were identified with potent cytotoxicity on a variety of cancer cell lines.Among the adherent cell lines tested,the triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)cell line MDA-MB-231 exhibited the highest sensitivity to both compounds and was therefore selected for further experimentation.In vitro assays demonstrated that both compounds induced ROS generation,mitochondrial membrane depolarization,cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.Whole-transcriptome sequencing of P3C.1 and P3C.2-treated MDA-MB-231 and two lymphoblastic leukemia cell lines revealed four genes in common associated with cell signaling and membrane dynamics.Connectivity Map(CMAP)database comparisons of shared genes for each cancer subtype revealed a strong similarity between the two compounds with tubulin inhibitors,and subsequent assays confirmed that these compounds act as microtubule-disrupting agents.Moreover,protein phosphorylation analysis indicated that both compounds induced hyperphosphorylation of JNK,and ERK1/2,along with hypophosphorylation of p38 kinases.Conclusions:P3C.1 and P3C.2 emerged as promising anti-breast cancer agents with dual mechanisms of action involving microtubule disruption and altered kinase signaling,leading to induction of apoptosis.

文摘Switchable polymerization is emerging as a powerful tool to construct block copolymers directly from mixtures of monomers.However,current achievements typically iterate between two polymerization cycles to afford products with fixed sequences and compositions.Herein,we report the triethylborane/1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene(Et_3B/DBU)pair-mediated four-component switchable polymerization of propylene oxide(PO),CO_(2),phthalic anhydride(PA),and racemic lactide(rac-LA),which enables the on-demand synthesis of four different block copolymers,i.e.,poly(propylene phthalate)-b-polylactide(PPE-b-PLA),PPE-b-PLA-b-poly(propylene carbonate)(PPC),PPE-b-PPC-b-PLA,and PPE-b-PPCb-poly(propylene oxide)(PPO),through rationally modulating the Lewis pair(LP)ratio.Core to this protocol is that increasing the loading of Et_(3)B accelerates the ring-opening of PO while impeding the reactivity of rac-LA,thus allowing for fine-tuning of the thermodynamic and kinetic of the switchable polymerization.Therefore,the four polymerization cycles involving PO/PA ring-opening copolymerization(ROCOP),PO/CO_(2) ROCOP,rac-LA ring-opening polymerization(ROP),and PO ROP can be connected and discriminated in precisely programmed manners.

文摘The development of flexible supercapacitors(FSCs) capable of operating at high temperatures is crucial for expanding the application areas and operating conditions of supercapacitors. Gel polymer electrolytes and electrode materials stand as two key components that significantly impact the efficacy of hightemperature-tolerant FSCs(HT-FSCs). They should not only exhibit high electrochemical performance and excellent flexibility, but also withstand intense thermal stress. Considerable efforts have been devoted to enhancing their thermal stability while maintaining high electrochemical and mechanical performance. In this review, the fundamentals of HT-FSCs are outlined. A comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art progress and achievements in HT-FSCs, with a focus on thermally stable gel polymer electrolytes and electrode materials is provided. Finally, challenges and future perspectives regarding HT-FSCs are discussed, alongside strategies for elevating operational temperatures and performance.This review offers both theoretical foundations and practical guidelines for designing and manufacturing HT-FSCs, further promoting their widespread adoption across diverse fields.

文摘The deep underground engineering will face high-temperature and ultrahigh-pressure(HTUP)condition.Indoor triaxial testing is an important means to investigate this challenge in rock mechanics and rock engineering.Heat-shrinkable tubing,as a seal on the rock surface,is crucial for reconstructing deep rock in situ conditions(ensuring the accuracy and effectiveness of confining pressure and pore pressure).However,there are few reports on testing such material under HTUP condition.Thus,the mechanical and sealing performances of existing heat-shrinkable tubing under HTUP condition is still immature.The motivation of this study is to advance deep rock mechanics and engineering by developing a polymer heat-shrinkable tubing(pressure larger than 140 MPa and temperature greater than 150℃).Experiments using the deep rock in situ thermal insulation coring test system were conducted and compared with conventional heat-shrinkable tubing.The sealing performance of the polymer heat-shrinkable tubing was investigated.The results indicated that deep rock ultrahigh-pressure condition and natural damage to the rock surface are the main causes of conventional heat-shrinkable tubing failure.In contrast,the damage rate of the proposed polymer heat-shrinkable tubing is extremely low,indicating that incorporating base material with high-performances can significantly enhance the pressure resistance of polymer heat-shrinkable tubing.Additionally,through the analysis of experimental results and the three-dimensional(3D)morphology of rock surfaces,the failure behavior of heat-shrinkable tubing under HTUP condition was revealed at the meso-structural level,and the proposed failure criteria,taking into account 3D morphology of rock surfaces and applicable to HTUP condition,have been advanced.The findings offer possibilities for triaxial rock mechanics testing in HTUP condition,providing theoretical and technical support for experiments and engineering applications in deep rock mechanics.

文摘As promising high-temperature proton exchange membranes,phosphoric acid(PA)doped polybenzimidazole(PBI)membranes still face challenges,including excessive PA leaching and limited long-term stability.The preparation of mixed matrix membranes(MMMs)has emerged as a viable strategy to address these limitations,which can combine the excellent mechanical properties of polymers with the structural advantages of porous fillers.Among various filler materials,nitrogen-containing porous organic polymers(POPs)have shown particular promise because of their excellent compatibility with polymers.Therefore,in this work,a new pyridine-based POP called Py-POP was synthesized.Py-POP was mixed with commercial poly[2,2′-(p-oxidiphenylene)-5,5′-benzimidazole](OPBI)to prepare MMMs.Theoretical calculations indicate that the pyridine groups exhibit strong interactions with PA,significantly enhancing both PA retention and proton conduction efficiency.Remarkably,the PA retention rate of the composite membrane doped with 10 wt%Py-POP is 77.2%at 80/40%RH,which is much higher than that of the OPBI(62.7%).Furthermore,the membrane achieves an outstanding proton conductivity of 0.173 S cm^(-1)at 180℃,which is 4.2 times higher than that of the OPBI membrane.The peak power density of the composite membrane can achieve 915.1 mW cm^(-2) and remains at 891.5 mW cm^(-2) after 80 cycles of testing at 180℃.

文摘Organocatalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization(O-ATRP)is a pivotal technique for the synthesis of polymers with well-defined structures that are devoid of metallic residues.A major challenge in this area is the reduction of catalyst loading while maintaining precise control over polymer architecture and properties.Herein,we systematically evaluate the efficacy of six pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline(pyzPhen)-based photoredox catalysts in photoinduced O-ATRP.Experimental results indicate that the introduction of various substituents markedly influences the photophysical properties and redox behavior of the catalysts,thereby resulting in differing catalytic efficiencies in the O-ATRP of methyl methacrylate(MMA).Following additional optimization,two highly efficient O-ATRP photocatalysts capable of exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)were successfully identified.Under visible light irradiation,TADF catalysts effectively mediated the controlled polymerization of MMA at a low loading level of 50 ppm,particularly when used in conjunction with the initiator DBMM.The catalytic systems demonstrate excellent temporal control,broad monomer applicability,and favorable compatibility with various initiators and solvent systems.This work offers new insights into the development of efficient,low-catalyst-loading,metal-free ATRP systems.
文摘This study investigated the physicochemical properties,enzyme activities,volatile flavor components,microbial communities,and sensory evaluation of high-temperature Daqu(HTD)during the maturation process,and a standard system was established for comprehensive quality evaluation of HTD.There were obvious changes in the physicochemical properties,enzyme activities,and volatile flavor components at different storage periods,which affected the sensory evaluation of HTD to a certain extent.The results of high-throughput sequencing revealed significant microbial diversity,and showed that the bacterial community changed significantly more than did the fungal community.During the storage process,the dominant bacterial genera were Kroppenstedtia and Thermoascus.The correlation between dominant microorganisms and quality indicators highlighted their role in HTD quality.Lactococcus,Candida,Pichia,Paecilomyces,and protease activity played a crucial role in the formation of isovaleraldehyde.Acidic protease activity had the greatest impact on the microbial community.Moisture promoted isobutyric acid generation.Furthermore,the comprehensive quality evaluation standard system was established by the entropy weight method combined with multi-factor fuzzy mathematics.Consequently,this study provides innovative insights for comprehensive quality evaluation of HTD during storage and establishes a groundwork for scientific and rational storage of HTD and quality control of sauce-flavor Baijiu.
