文摘The rational design of high-performance CO_(2)adsorbents remains a critical challenge in addressing global carbon emissions,with metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)emerging as promising candidates due to their tunable pore environments.However,the lack of systematic guidelines for functional group selection has hindered their practical implementation in carbon capture applications.Here,this gap was addressed by developing a comprehensive design framework through high-throughput computational screening.Through construction of a topology-directed database of 4797,integrating 10 metal centers with 144 functionalized ligands(18 ligands modified by–NH_(2),–NO_(2),–CH_(3),–CF_(3),–SH_(2),–SO_(2),–OH,and–OLi)across 36 topologies,the fundamental structure–property relationships governing CO_(2)capture performance was established.Multi-metric evaluation reveals that–NO_(2),–SO_(2),and–OLi dramatically enhance CO_(2)selectivity over CH_4/N_(2)via selectivity(S_(ads)),working capacity(ΔN),adsorbent performance score(APS),sorbent selection parameter(S_(sp)),and renewability R.Specially,ΔN rises from 2.34(pristine)to 5.91–7.94 mmol g^(-1)and S_(ads)surges from 24.94/40.36 to 121.11/176.87(–NO_(2)),149.94/215.54(–SO_(2)),and 58.64/267.44(–OLi).Besides,the critical trade-off between adsorption strength and renewability demonstrates that enhanced performance comes at the cost of reduced renewability,where stronger CO_(2)affinity(isosteric heat of-29.15,-29.96,and-30.09 for–NO_(2),–SO_(2),and–OLi)compromises renewability(R reduced by -50%).To resolve this trade-off,a novel energy efficiency(η)metric was introduced,which holistically evaluates both adsorption performance(S_(ads),ΔN,APS,S_(sp),and R)and energy inputs(desorption heat,pressure-swing energy,net loss).This leads to the identification of–SO_(2)as the optimal functional group that balances exceptional CO_(2)capture(η=6.17/12.78 for CO_(2)over CH_4/N_(2)),surpassing the second higher of 4.74/8.80 in–CF_(3)and 0.99/2.18 in non-functionalized counterparts.Adopting high-throughput computational screening methods,this work provides both fundamental insights into host–vip interactions in functionalized MOFs and a practical framework for designing next-generation adsorbents,bridging the gap between materials discovery and process engineering considerations in carbon capture technologies.

文摘Shuttle effect of polysulfides overshadows the superiorities of lithium-sulfur batteries.Size-sieving effect could address this thorny trouble rely on size differ in polysulfides and lithium ions.However,clogged polysulfides pose some challenges for cathode and are rarely recycled during charging/discharging.Herein,an amino functionalized titanium-organic framework is designed for modifying lithium-sulfur batteries separator to address the aforementioned challenges.Wherein,the introduction of amino narrows titanium-organic framework pore size,enabling functional separator to selectively modulate lithium ions and polysulfides migration using size-sieving effect,thereby completely suppressing polysulfides shuttle.Furthermore,the blocked polysulfides will be adsorbed on the separator surface by positively charged amino leveraging electrostatic adsorption,ensuring polysulfides to redistribute and reuse,and boosting active materials utilization.Significantly,the migration of lithium ions is not hindered since there are lithium ions transfer channels formed via Lewis acid-base interaction with the help of amino.Combined with these virtues,the lithium-sulfur batteries with amino functionalized titanium-organic framework modified separator enjoy an ultralow attenuation rate of 0.045%per cycle over 1000 cycles at 1.0C.Electrostatic adsorption and Lewis acid-base interaction cover deficiencies existing in the inhibition of polysulfides shuttle by size-sieving effect,providing fresh insight into the advancement of lithium-sulfur batteries.

文摘Listeria monocytogenes(LM)is a dangerous foodborne pathogen for humans.One emerging and validated method of indirectly assessing LM in food is detecting 3-hydroxy-2-butanone(3H2B)gas.In this study,the synthesis of 3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyltrimethoxysilane(AAPTMS)functionalized hierarchical hollow TiO_(2)nanospheres was achieved via precise controlling of solvothermal reaction temperature and post-grafting route.The sensors based on as-prepared materials exhibited excellent sensitivity(480 Hz@50 ppm),low detection limit(100 ppb),and outstanding selectivity.Moreover,the evaluation of LM with high sensitivity and specificity was achieved using the sensors.Such stable three-dimensional spheres,whose distinctive hierarchical and hollow nanostructure simultaneously improved both sensitivity and response/recovery speed dramatically,were spontaneously assembled by nanosheets.Meanwhile,the moderate loadings of AAPTMS significantly improved the selectivity of sensors.Then,the gas-sensing mechanism was explored by utilizing thermodynamic investigation,Gaussian 16 software,and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared transform spectroscopy,illustrating the weak chemisorption between the-NHgroup and 3H2B molecules.These portable sensors are promising for real-time assessment of LM at room temperature,which will make a magnificent contribution to food safety.

文摘This study investigates the properties of high-purity starches extracted from Polygonum multiflorum(PMS)and Smilax glabra(SGS).The starches were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,high-performance anion-exchange chromatography,and differential scanning calorimetry.Significant differences were observed in their morphological,physicochemical,and functional properties.PMS had a smaller particle size(13.68 μm),irregular polygonal shape,A-type,lower water absorption(62.67 %),and higher oil absorption(51.17 %).In contrast,SGS exhibited larger particles(31.75 μm),a nearly spherical shape,B-type,higher crystallinity(50.66 %),and greater amylose content(21.54 %),with superior thermal stability,shear resistance,and gelatinization enthalpy.SGS also contained higher resistant starch(83.28 %) and longer average chain length(20.58 %),but showed lower solubility,swelling power,light transmittance,and freeze-thaw stability.The physicochemical properties differences in crystal pattern and particle morphology between PMS and SGS lead to distinct behaviors during in vitro digestion and fermentation.These findings highlight the potential of medicinal plant starches in functional ingredients and industrial processes.

文摘The deposition of ultrafine single-atom nickel particles on Nb_(2)C(MXene)was successfully achieved using a wet chemistry method to synthesize Ni@Nb_(2)C composite.This study explored the effect of Ni@Nb_(2)C on the hydrogen absorption and desorption properties of MgH_(2) through theoretical calculations and experimental investigations.Under the catalytic action of Ni@Nb2C,the initial dehydrogenation temperature of MgH_(2) was reduced by 121℃,with approximately 4.26 wt.% of H_(2) desorbed at 225℃ in 100 min.The dehydrogenation activation energy of the MgH_(2)+Ni@Nb_(2)C composite dropped to 86.7 kJ·mol^(-1),a reduction of 60.5 kJ·mol^(-1) compared to pure MgH_(2).Density functional theory calculations indicated that the incorporation of Ni@Nb_(2)C enhanced the performance of MgH_(2) performance by improving interactions among Nb_(2)C,Ni,Mg,and H atoms.In the Ni@Nb_(2)C+MgH_(2) system,the lengths of Mg-H bonds(1.91-1.99 A)were found to be longer than those observed in pure MgH_(2)(1.71 A).The dehydrogenation energy for this system(1.08 eV)was lower than that for Nb_(2)C(1.52 eV).These findings suggest that the synergistic effect of Ni and Nb2C significantly enhances the hydrogenation/dehydrogenation kinetics of MgH_(2),thereby introducing a novel approach for catalytic modification of solid hydrogen storage materials through synergistic actions.

文摘Gauss radial basis functions(GRBF)are frequently employed in data fitting and machine learning.Their linear independence property can theoretically guarantee the avoidance of data redundancy.In this paper,one of the main contributions is proving this property using linear algebra instead of profound knowledge.This makes it easy to read and understand this fundamental fact.The proof of linear independence of a set of Gauss functions relies on the constructing method for one-dimensional space and on the deducing method for higher dimensions.Additionally,under the condition of preserving the same moments between the original function and interpolating function,both the interpolating existence and uniqueness are proven for GRBF in one-dimensional space.The final work demonstrates the application of the GRBF method to locate lunar olivine.By combining preprocessed data using GRBF with the removing envelope curve method,a program is created to find the position of lunar olivine based on spectrum data,and the numerical experiment shows that it is an effective scheme.

文摘Polyvinyl chloride(PVC)is one of the most widely used plastic materials worldwide,particularly in long-life applications such as construction materials.However,recycling options for PVC waste remain limited,as conventional methods often degrade material quality or generate environmentally hazardous byproducts.In this study,we demonstrate an efficient process to convert PVC into new polymers with variable aromatic groups,using triethylsilane as the reductant in different solvents.This approach enables the production of polymers analogous to functionalized polyethylene(PE),which are typically challenging to obtain through conventional copolymerization or direct post-modification of C-H bonds in PE.The resulting polymers exhibit tunable thermal and mechanical properties depending on the introduced aromatic groups,which not only enhance the sustainable valorization of PVC waste,but also provide an opportunity for the synthesis of new functionalized polymers.

文摘Saikosaponins are the major pharmacologically active components in Bupleurum genus and exhibit significant application potential in multiple fields such as immune regulation and anti-tumor activity.To elucidate the biosynthetic pathway of saikosaponins,we identified two cytochrome P450 monooxygenases,CYP716A41 and CYP716Y4,in Bupleurum chinense.These enzymes catalyze the C-28 oxidation and C-16 hydroxylation of oleanane-type triterpene skeletons,respectively.The catalytic efficiency of CYP716A41 from a southern B.chinense variety was significantly higher than that from a northern variety.Molecular docking and mutagenesis experiments revealed that amino acid residues at sites 9 and 35 may contribute to this difference in catalytic efficiency.Additionally,under cold stress,the expression levels of both CYP450 genes and the saikosaponin contents in the leaves of southern varieties were significantly higher compared to those in northern varieties.The variation in the catalytic efficiency of CYP716A41 and the differential expression of the two CYP450 genes under cold stress during winter are associated with the differences in saikosaponin biosynthesis in the leaves of southern and northern B.chinense varieties.This is consistent with the distinct medicinal usage practices observed between southern and northern China.

文摘An ionic liquid assisted hydrogel modified silica was synthesized using a one-pot polymerization and physical coating technique and subsequently applied to mixed-mode liquid chromatography.Analytical techniques,including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),and elemental analysis,etc.,confirmed the successful prepared of this innovative stationary phase.The unique combination of amide,long alkyl chain,and imidazole ring in the hydrogel coating enables the stationary phase to function effectively in hydrophilic/reversed-phase/ion exchange liquid chromatography.Notably,the stationary phase exhibited superior separation performance owing to the synergistic effect of the ionic liquid and hydrogel.This was particularly evident when analyzing various analytes such as organic acids,nucleosides/bases,polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)and anions.Furthermore,under our operating conditions,an excellent column efficiency of 53,642.9 plates/m was achieved for theobromine.In summary,we have proposed a straightforward strategy to enhance the separation performance of hydrogel coatings in liquid chromatography,thereby broadening the potential applications of hydrogels in the field of separation.

文摘The growing interest in photovoltaics(PV)based on fullerene-functionalized perovskite solar cells(PSCs)stems from their unique optoelectronic properties and compatibility with scalable,cost-effective processing techniques.Fullerene and its derivatives(e.g.,C_(60)and PCBM)are widely recognised for their excellent electron transport properties,but challenges such as poor solubility,aggregation,and interface instability hinder their full potential.This review critically examines recent progress in fullerene functionalization and its application as electron transport layers(ETLs)in inverted PSCs.We discuss strategies to address these challenges,including molecular design improvements,solvent engineering,and interface passivation techniques to enhance device performance and stability.Furthermore,we explore approaches for scaling up fullerene-functionalized inverted PSCs to meet commercial demands.Finally,we propose future research directions to expand PSC technology,improve device longevity,and foster broader commercial applications,positioning fullerene-functionalized PSCs as a key player in nextgeneration photovoltaic innovations.

文摘Platinum-based(Pt)catalysts are notoriously susceptible to deactivation in industrial chemical processes due to carbon monoxide(CO)poisoning.Overcoming this poisoning deactivation of Pt-based catalysts while enhancing their catalytic activity,selectivity,and durability remains a major challenge.Herein,we propose a strategy to enhance the CO tolerance of Pt clusters(Pt_n)by introducing neighboring functionalized vip single atoms(such as Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Sb,and Bi).Among them,antimony(Sb)single atoms(SAs)exhibit significant performance enhancement,achieving 99%CO selectivity and 33.6%CO_(2)conversion at 450℃,Experimental results and density functional theory(DFT)calculations indicate the optimization arises from the electronic interaction between neighboring functionalized Sb SAs and Pt clusters,leading to optimal 5d electron redistribution in Pt clusters compared to other functionalized vip single atoms.The redistribution of 5d electrons weaken both theσdonation andπbackdonation interactions,resulting in a weakened bond strength with CO and enhancing catalyst activity and selectivity.In situ environmental transmission electron microscopy(ETEM)further demonstrates the exception thermal stability of the catalyst,even under H_(2)at 700℃.Notably,the functionalized Sb SAs also improve CO tolerance in various heterogenous catalysts,including Co/CeO_(2),Ni/CeO_(2),Pt/Al_(2)O_(3),and Pt/CeO_(2)-C.This finding provides an effective approach to overcome the primary challenge of CO poisoning in Pt-based catalysts,making their broader applications in various industrial catalysts.

文摘Spinal cord injury represents a severe form of central nervous system trauma for which effective treatments remain limited.Microglia is the resident immune cells of the central nervous system,play a critical role in spinal cord injury.Previous studies have shown that microglia can promote neuronal survival by phagocytosing dead cells and debris and by releasing neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory factors.However,excessive activation of microglia can lead to persistent inflammation and contribute to the formation of glial scars,which hinder axonal regeneration.Despite this,the precise role and mechanisms of microglia during the acute phase of spinal cord injury remain controversial and poorly understood.To elucidate the role of microglia in spinal cord injury,we employed the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor inhibitor PLX5622 to deplete microglia.We observed that sustained depletion of microglia resulted in an expansion of the lesion area,downregulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor,and impaired functional recovery after spinal cord injury.Next,we generated a transgenic mouse line with conditional overexpression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor specifically in microglia.We found that brain-derived neurotrophic factor overexpression in microglia increased angiogenesis and blood flow following spinal cord injury and facilitated the recovery of hindlimb motor function.Additionally,brain-derived neurotrophic factor overexpression in microglia reduced inflammation and neuronal apoptosis during the acute phase of spinal cord injury.Furthermore,through using specific transgenic mouse lines,TMEM119,and the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor inhibitor PLX73086,we demonstrated that the neuroprotective effects were predominantly due to brain-derived neurotrophic factor overexpression in microglia rather than macrophages.In conclusion,our findings suggest the critical role of microglia in the formation of protective glial scars.Depleting microglia is detrimental to recovery of spinal cord injury,whereas targeting brain-derived neurotrophic factor overexpression in microglia represents a promising and novel therapeutic strategy to enhance motor function recovery in patients with spinal cord injury.
