Spherical hollow mesoporous silica supported phosphotungstic acid as a promising catalyst for α-arylstyrenes synthesis via Friedel-Crafts alkenylation

This work presents a scalable approach for preparing spherical hollow mesoporous silica with high surface area/pore volume, serving as outstanding support for supported phosphotungstic acid catalyst with much superior catalytic performance to the one on previously reported spherical mesoporous silica toward diverse transformations, ascribed to the strengthened mass transfer and the enlarged exposure degree of acidic sites to reactants those resulting from unique hollow and mesoporous morphology.     

Janus Gold Nanostars–Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for NIR-Light-Triggered Drug Delivery

Janus gold nanostar–mesoporous silica nanoparticle ( AuNSt–MSNP ) nanodevices able to release an entrapped payload upon irradiation with near infrared (NIR) light were prepared and characterized. The AuNSt surface was functionalized with a thiolated photolabile molecule ( 5 ), whereas the mesoporous silica face was loaded with a model drug (doxorubicin) and capped with proton-responsive benzimidazole-β-cyclodextrin supramolecular gatekeepers ( N 1 ). Upon irradiation with NIR-light, the photolabile compound 5 photodissociated, resulting in the formation of succinic acid, which induced the opening of the gatekeeper and cargo delivery. In the overall mechanism, the gold surface acts as a photochemical transducer capable of transforming the NIR-light input into a chemical messenger (succinic acid) that opens the supramolecular nanovalve. The prepared hybrid nanoparticles were non-cytotoxic to HeLa cells, until they were irradiated with a NIR laser, which led to intracellular doxorubicin release and hyperthermia. This induced a remarkable reduction in HeLa cells viability.     

Smart Soft‐Templating Synthesis of Hollow Mesoporous Bioactive Glass Spheres

Hollow bioactive glass spheres with mesoporous shells were prepared by using dual soft templates, a diblock co‐polymer poly(styrene‐b‐acrylic acid) (PS‐b‐PAA) and a cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Hollow mesoporous bioactive glass (HMBG) spheres comprise the large hollow interior with vertical mesochannels in shell, which realize large uptake of drugs and their sustained release. The formation of hydroxyapatite layer on the surface of HMBG particles shows the clear evidence for promising application in bone regeneration.     

Hierarchically Designed Three‐Dimensional Macro/Mesoporous Carbon Frameworks for Advanced Electrochemical Capacitance Storage

Mesoporous carbon (m‐C) has potential applications as porous electrodes for electrochemical energy storage, but its applications have been severely limited by the inherent fragility and low electrical conductivity. A rational strategy is presented to construct m‐C into hierarchical porous structures with high flexibility by using a carbon nanotube (CNT) sponge as a three‐dimensional template, and grafting Pt nanoparticles at the m‐C surface. This method involves several controllable steps including solution deposition of a mesoporous silica (m‐SiO₂) layer onto CNTs, chemical vapor deposition of acetylene, and etching of m‐SiO₂, resulting in a CNT@m‐C core–shell or a CNT@m‐C@Pt core–shell hybrid structure after Pt adsorption. The underlying CNT network provides a robust yet flexible support and a high electrical conductivity, whereas the m‐C provides large surface area, and the Pt nanoparticles improves interfacial electron and ion diffusion. Consequently, specific capacitances of 203 and 311 F g^?1 have been achieved in these CNT@m‐C and CNT@m‐C@Pt sponges as supercapacitor electrodes, respectively, which can retain 96 % of original capacitance under large degree compression.     

Optimization of STEM-HAADF Electron Tomography Reconstructions by Parameter Selection in Compressed Sensing Total Variation Minimization-Based Algorithms

A novel procedure to optimize the 3D morphological characterization of nanomaterials by means of high angle annular dark field scanning-transmission electron tomography is reported and is successfully applied to the analysis of a metal- and halogen-free ordered mesoporous carbon material. The new method is based on a selection of the two parameters (μ and β) which are key in the reconstruction of tomographic series by means of total variation minimization (TVM). The parameter-selected TVM reconstructions obtained using this approach clearly reveal the porous structure of the carbon-based material as consisting of a network of parallel, straight channels of ≈6 nm diameter ordered in a honeycomb-type arrangement. Such an unusual structure cannot be retrieved from a TVM 3D reconstruction using default reconstruction values. Moreover, segmentation and further quantification of the optimized 3D tomographic reconstruction provide values for different textural parameters, such as pore size distribution and specific pore volume that match very closely with those determined by macroscopic physisorption techniques. The approach developed can be extended to other reconstruction models in which the final result is influenced by parameter choice.     

功能模板导向合成介孔三氧化钨及其光电化学性能

以钨酸(H₂WO₄)为钨前驱体,十二烷胺(DDA)为模板剂,利用模板剂的结构导向功能,合成了比表面积为57.3 m²·g^-1的介孔三氧化钨(DDA-WO₃),是未用DDA制备的非介孔WO₃(H₂WO₄-WO₃)的2.35倍。X射线衍射(XRD)结果表明,400 ℃下煅烧的DDA-WO₃是具有单斜晶型结晶孔壁的无序介孔结构。此外,400~550 ℃下煅烧的DDA-WO₃的结晶度均高于同条件的H₂WO₄-WO₃。400 ℃下的DDA-WO₃/FTO(掺氟氧化锡)在1.0 V的Ag/AgCl偏压作用下,可以产生0.18 mA·cm^-2的饱和光电流,是H₂WO₄-WO₃/FTO(0.06 mA·cm^-2)的3倍。增强的光电化学(PEC)活性主要因为DDA-WO₃/FTO的大表面积降低了低结晶度对PEC性能的不利影响,成为影响PEC活性的主要因素。500 ℃煅烧导致了DDA-WO₃/FTO介孔结构的坍塌,但高的结晶度仍然保持其优越的PEC催化活性。     

Stable Ti3+ Defects in Oriented Mesoporous Titania Frameworks for Efficient Photocatalysis

By introducing a compatible reducing agent (2‐ethylimidazole) into a mono‐micelle assembly process, we present a type of ordered mesoporous TiO₂ microspheres that combines radially aligned mesostructure with Ti³⁺ defects in mesoporous frameworks. Such reductant acts as a building block of mesostructured frameworks and reduces Ti⁴⁺ in situ to generate defects during calcination, giving rise to the coexistence of bulk Ti³⁺ defects and an ordered mesostructure. The mesoporous TiO₂ has both excellent mesoporosity (a high surface area of 106 m² g^?1, a mean pore size of 18.4 nm) and stable defects with an extended photoresponse. Such integration of unique mesoscopic architecture and atomic vacancies provide both effective mass transportation and enhanced light utilization, leading to a remarkable increase in H₂ generation rate. A maximum H₂ evolution rate of 19.8 mmol g^?1 h^?1 can be achieved, along with outstanding stability under solar light.
