文摘The development of robust and active oxygen evolution reaction(OER)electrocatalysts is urgently desirable for the widespread implementation of proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers(PEMWE),yet remains a critical challenge.We propose a catalyst named U-IrRuO_(x)@IrRu(where“U”denotes“ultrathin”),which features a spontaneously formed amorphous oxide shell that synergistically optimizes the electronic structure and corrosion resistance.Combined experimental and theoretical studies reveal that the oxyphilic Ru-induced electronic modulation weakens Ir-O binding strength,thereby accelerating the rate-determining step of ^(*)OOH formation.In addition,the metallic alloy core functions as an electron reservoir,suppressing excessive oxidation of active sites while ensuring high conductivity.Due to these attributes,the U-IrRuO_(x)@IrRu demonstrates a low overpotential of 230 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2),outperforming commercial IrO_(2)(CM)by 65 mV.When integrated into a PEMWE with an ultra-low Ir loading of 0.25 mg_(Ir)cm^(-2),it delivers an industrial current density of 2 A cm^(-2)at 1.74 V and 3 A cm^(-2)at 1.836 V,surpassing the U.S.Department of Energy(DOE)2025 target.More impressively,the U-IrRuOx@IrRubased electrolyzer can stably operate for over 550 h,with an extremely low decay rate of 7.52μV h^(-1),corresponding to a predicted lifespan of 23,000 h with 90%performance retention.
文摘Juniperus oxycedrus(J.oxycedrus)is a traditional culinary spice and medicinal herb with a longstanding history of ethnopharmacological applications across diverse cultures.While prior research has explored the biological activities and phytochemical constituents of extracts derived from its leaves and seed cones,the present study systematically investigates their mineral and phenolic profiles alongside their multifunctional bioactive potential.Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy(ICP-AES)analysis revealed a substantial abundance of essential macro-and microelements.Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography(RP-HPLC)further identified high concentrations of phenolic acids(e.g.,p-coumaric acid)and flavonoids(e.g.,rutin and quercetin).The extracts exhibited potent radical scavenging activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH),robust antioxidant capacity against hydrogen peroxide,and significant inhibition of xanthine oxidase(XO)activity.Notably,both extracts demonstrated marked antibacterial efficacy.In silico molecular docking studies suggested that the antimicrobial activity may stem from the phenolic constituents,which exhibited favorable binding affinities to the active site of bacterial target proteins.These findings underscore J.oxycedrus as a promising reservoir of bioactive natural compounds,warranting further exploration for therapeutic and nutraceutical applications.
文摘Under hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions,two novel cobalt-based complexes,{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dtb)]·3.2H_(2)O}n(HU23)and{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dib)]·3.5H2O·DMF}n(HU24),were successfully constructed by coordinatively assembling the semi-rigid multidentate ligand 5-(1-carboxyethoxy)isophthalic acid(H₃CIA)with the Nheterocyclic ligands 1,4-di(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzene(1,4-dtb)and 1,4-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene(1,4-dib),respectively,around Co^(2+)ions.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that in both complexes HU23 and HU24,the CIA^(3-)anions adopt aκ^(7)-coordination mode,bridging six Co^(2+)ions via their five carboxylate oxygen atoms and one ether oxygen atom.This linkage forms tetranuclear[Co4(μ3-OH)2]^(6+)units.These Co-oxo cluster units were interconnected by CIA^(3-)anions to assemble into 2D kgd-type structures featuring a 3,6-connected topology.The 2D layers were further connected by 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,resulting in 3D pillar-layered frameworks for HU23 and HU24.Notably,despite the similar configurations of 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,differences in their coordination spatial orientations lead to topological divergence in the 3D frameworks of HU23 and HU24.Topological analysis indicates that the frameworks of HU23 and HU24 can be simplified into a 3,10-connected net(point symbol:(4^(10).6^(3).8^(2))(4^(3))_(2))and a 3,8-connected tfz-d net(point symbol:(4^(3))_(2)((4^(6).6^(18).8^(4)))),respectively.This structural differentiation confirms the precise regulatory role of ligands on the topology of metal-organic frameworks.Moreover,the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra confirmed that HU23 and HU24 have strong absorption capabilities for ultraviolet and visible light.According to the Kubelka-Munk method,their bandwidths were 2.15 and 2.08 eV,respectively,which are consistent with those of typical semiconductor materials.Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements(2-300 K)revealed significant antiferromagnetic coupling in both complexes,with their effective magnetic moments decreasing markedly as the temperature lowered.CCDC:2457554,HU23;2457553,HU24.

文摘As an important class of phenanthroline derivatives containing soft N and hard O donor atoms,the laborious syntheses of unsymmetrical 1,10-phenanthroline-derived diamide ligands(DAPhen) have hindered its extensive study.In this work,we first report a convenient synthetic method for the construction of DAPhen using Friedländer reaction by two facile steps(vs.previous 12 steps).A variety of DAPhen ligands are readily available,especially unsymmetrical ones,which give us a platform to systematically study the substituent effect on f-block elements extraction performance.The performance of unsymmetrical extractants is experimentally confirmed to falls between that of their corresponding symmetrical extractants by extracting UO_(2)^(2+) as the representative f-block element.This work provides a direct and versatile method to synthesize symmetrical and unsymmetrical DAPhen,which paves way for the investigations on their coordination properties with metal ions and other applications.
文摘Exogenous neural stem cell transplantation has become one of the most promising treatment methods for chronic stroke.Recent studies have shown that most ischemia-reperfusion model rats recover spontaneously after injury,which limits the ability to observe long-term behavioral recovery.Here,we used a severe stroke rat model with 150 minutes of ischemia,which produced severe behavioral deficiencies that persisted at 12 weeks,to study the therapeutic effect of neural stem cells on neural restoration in chronic stroke.Our study showed that stroke model rats treated with human neural stem cells had long-term sustained recovery of motor function,reduced infarction volume,long-term human neural stem cell survival,and improved local inflammatory environment and angiogenesis.We also demonstrated that transplanted human neural stem cells differentiated into mature neurons in vivo,formed stable functional synaptic connections with host neurons,and exhibited the electrophysiological properties of functional mature neurons,indicating that they replaced the damaged host neurons.The findings showed that human fetal-derived neural stem cells had long-term effects for neurological recovery in a model of severe stroke,which suggests that human neural stem cells-based therapy may be effective for repairing damaged neural circuits in stroke patients.

文摘Oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is widely recognized as a bottleneck of water electrolysis.To determine the underlying reaction mechanisms,particularly the relative contribution of the adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM)and lattice-oxygen participation mechanism(LOM),we conduct a comprehensive investigation combining Density Functional Theory(DFT)calculations and experimental validation.Our theoretical analysis of doped RuO_(2)catalysts reveals that heteroatom doping(Ni,Cu,and Zn)induces significant local charge transfer,leading to the increased charge state of Ru and the downshifted d-band center.This,in turn,enables the mechanism switching from the conventional AEM to the more efficient LOM,and finally improves OER activity.We also establish a simple yet powerful descriptor,Ne of Ru(representing charge density of Ru sites),which enables accurate prediction of both catalytic activity and stability.Guided by these theoretical predictions,we successfully synthesize a Ni-doped RuO_(2)catalyst,which exhibits excellent OER activity and stability in acidic media,achieving an overpotential of just 156 mV and maintaining stability for 4000 h at 10 mA cm^(−2),significantly surpassing the performance of the commercial RuO_(2).These findings not only provide fundamental insights into the mechanism-switching behavior in OER catalysis but also offer a practical strategy for designing high-performance,stable electrocatalysts for acidic water electrolysis.
文摘Guided by the"Healthy China 2030"strategy,improving national nutrition and health literacy has become a core task in public health system development.The National Nutrition Plan(2017-2030)explicitly calls for"strengthening the training of nutrition talents"and"promoting nutrition science education".As a key vehicle for this mission,the Food Nutrition and Health course in higher education urgently needs to address bottlenecks in traditional teaching,such as low knowledge application and transfer rates,insufficient student engagement,and ineffective guidance on healthy behaviors.The BOPPPS teaching model,with its structured design(Bridge-in,Objective,Pre-assessment,Participatory Learning,Post-assessment,Summary),effectively promotes the internalization of nutritional knowledge and the transformation into healthy behaviors among students by emphasizing practice-oriented teaching activities.In this study,focusing on this course,an in-depth exploration of curriculum teaching design was conducted based on the BOPPPS instructional model,aiming to deeply integrate the strategic objectives of Healthy China into the curriculum,and promote the transformation of nutritional knowledge into healthy decision-making ability.This study provides new insights for food and nutrition education.

文摘Poly(phenylene oxide)(PPO)exhibits excellent dielectric properties,making it an ideal substrate for high-frequency,high-speed copper-clad laminates.The phenolic hydroxyl group at the end of PPO plays a key role in its reactivity.Accurately quantifying the phenolic hydroxyl content in PPO is essential but challenging.In this study,we proposed a method for measuring the phenolic hydroxyl content of PPO using differential UV absorption spectroscopy.In alkaline solutions,the phenolic hydroxyl in PPO completely ionizes to form phenoxide ions,leading to a significant increase in UV absorbance at approximately 250 and 300 nm.Notably,the differential UV absorbance at approximately 300 nm was directly proportional to the phenolic hydroxyl concentration.Using 2,6-dimethylphenol as a standard,a calibration curve was established to relate the phenolic hydroxyl concentration to differential UV absorbance at approximately 300 nm,providing a precise and straightforward method for phenolic hydroxyl quantification in PPO with distinct advantages over conventional techniques.

文摘In comparison with their 2D and 3D counterparts,1D covalent organic frameworks(COFs)have rarely been investigated due to the synthetic challenge arising from the strict necessary matching in the molecular symmetry between corresponding building blocks and linking units in addition to the unmanageable packing of 1D organic chains once formed.Herein,two novel imide-linked 1D COFs with phthalocyanine building blocks,namely NiPc-CZDM-COF and NiPc-CZDL-COF,were fabricated from the hydrothermal synthesis reaction of 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octacarboxyphthalocyaninato nickel(II)(NiPc(COOH)_(8))with 9H-carbazole-3,6-diamine(CZDM)and 4,4′-(9H-carbazole-3,6-diyl)dianiline(CZDL),respectively.Two COFs have high crystallinity on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction analysis and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy.Due to their high ratio of exposed active centers on the edge sites of porous ribbons,both NiPc-CZDM-COF and NiPc-CZDL-COF electrodes display high utilization efficiency of NiPc electroactive sites of 8.0%and 7.5% according to the electrochemical measurement,resulting in their excellent capacity toward electrocatalytic nitrate reduction with the nitrate-to-NH3 Faradaic efficiency of nearly 100%.In particular,NiPc-CZDM-COF electrode exhibits superior electrocatalytic performance with high NH3 partial current density of−246 mA/cm^(2),ammonia yield rate of 19.5 mg cm^(−2) h^(−1),and turnover frequency of 5.8 s^(−1) at−1.2 V in an H-type cell associated with its higher conductivity.This work reveals the good potential of 1D porous crystalline materials in electrocatalysis.

文摘The large volume expansion and rapid capacity attenuation of tin-based electrodes are the main factors limiting their commercial application.The reasonable design of electrode material structure is particularly important for improving its electrochemical performance.Herein,phosphorus-modified graphene encapsulated Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)nanoparticles composite(P-Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)@RGO)with crystalline-amorphous heterostructure has been successfully designed and prepared.The design of crystalline-amorphous structure has largely enhanced the active sites,and the construction of a graphene encapsulation structure has greatly alleviated volume expansion.Notably,P-Sn_(6)O_(4)(OH)_(4)@RGO obtained an excellent high-rate longterm cycling performance for lithium-ion batteries anode,reaching a high specific capacity of 970 m Ah/g at 1.0 A/g after 1450 cycles.This work demonstrates that restructuring the electrode material's structure and phase through phosphorus modification can effectively improve the electrochemical performance of tin-based electrode materials.

文摘Automated classification of gas flow states in blast furnaces using top-camera imagery typically demands a large volume of labeled data,whose manual annotation is both labor-intensive and cost-prohibitive.To mitigate this challenge,we present an enhanced semi-supervised learning approach based on the Mean Teacher framework,incorporating a novel feature loss module to maximize classification performance with limited labeled samples.The model studies show that the proposed model surpasses both the baseline Mean Teacher model and fully supervised method in accuracy.Specifically,for datasets with 20%,30%,and 40%label ratios,using a single training iteration,the model yields accuracies of 78.61%,82.21%,and 85.2%,respectively,while multiple-cycle training iterations achieves 82.09%,81.97%,and 81.59%,respectively.Furthermore,scenario-specific training schemes are introduced to support diverse deployment need.These findings highlight the potential of the proposed technique in minimizing labeling requirements and advancing intelligent blast furnace diagnostics.

文摘Strategies for achieving high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries include using high-capacity materials such as high-nickel NCM,increasing the active material content in the electrode by utilizing high-conductivity carbon nanotubes(CNT)conductive materials,and electrode thickening.However,these methods are still limited due to the limitation in the capacity of high-nickel NCM,aggregation of CNT conductive materials,and nonuniform material distribution of thick-film electrodes,which ultimately damage the mechanical and electrical integrity of the electrode,leading to a decrease in electrochemical performance.Here,we present an integrated binder-CNT composite dispersion solution to realize a high-solids-content(>77 wt%)slurry for high-mass-loading electrodes and to mitigate the migration of binder and conductive additives.Indeed,the approach reduces solvent usage by approximately 30%and ensures uniform conductive additive-binder domain distribution during electrode manufacturing,resulting in improved coating quality and adhesive strength for high-mass-loading electrodes(>12 mAh cm^(−2)).In terms of various electrode properties,the presented electrode showed low resistance and excellent electrochemical properties despite the low CNT contents of 0.6 wt%compared to the pristine-applied electrode with 0.85 wt%CNT contents.Moreover,our strategy enables faster drying,which increases the coating speed,thereby offering potential energy savings and supporting carbon neutrality in wet-based electrode manufacturing processes.

文摘Since the first design of tactile sensors was proposed by Harmon in 1982,tactile sensors have evolved through four key phases:industrial applications(1980s,basic pressure detection),miniaturization via MEMS(1990s),flexible electronics(2010s,stretchable materials),and intelligent systems(2020s-present,AI-driven multimodal sensing).With the innovation of material,processing techniques,and multimodal fusion of stimuli,the application of tactile sensors has been continuously expanding to a diversity of areas,including but not limited to medical care,aerospace,sports and intelligent robots.Currently,researchers are dedicated to develop tactile sensors with emerging mechanisms and structures,pursuing high-sensitivity,high-resolution,and multimodal characteristics and further constructing tactile systems which imitate and approach the performance of human organs.However,challenges in the combination between the theoretical research and the practical applications are still significant.There is a lack of comprehensive understanding in the state of the art of such knowledge transferring from academic work to technical products.Scaled-up production of laboratory materials faces fatal challenges like high costs,small scale,and inconsistent quality.Ambient factors,such as temperature,humidity,and electromagnetic interference,also impair signal reliability.Moreover,tactile sensors must operate across a wide pressure range(0.1 k Pa to several or even dozens of MPa)to meet diverse application needs.Meanwhile,the existing algorithms,data models and sensing systems commonly reveal insufficient precision as well as undesired robustness in data processing,and there is a realistic gap between the designed and the demanded system response speed.In this review,oriented by the design requirements of intelligent tactile sensing systems,we summarize the common sensing mechanisms,inspired structures,key performance,and optimizing strategies,followed by a brief overview of the recent advances in the perspectives of system integration and algorithm implementation,and the possible roadmap of future development of tactile sensors,providing a forward-looking as well as critical discussions in the future industrial applications of flexible tactile sensors.
