碳点增强的Ru纳米颗粒复合材料用于碱性条件下高效电解水析氢

In the 21st century, hydrogen energy is a novel energy source. Its use is expected to mitigate the problems of environmental pollution and global warming caused by the excessive use of conventional fossil fuels. The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) for water splitting has attracted considerable attention because of its environmental friendliness. To improve electrocatalyst performance and reduce operation cost, carbon-based metal hybrid materials exhibiting high efficiency and catalytic activity have been developed. Among them, carbon dots (CDs) have garnered significant research attention and have been widely applied in biosensing, bioimaging, and energy conversion/storage because of their facile synthesis, biocompatibility, tunable photoluminescence, excellent stability, and good electronic properties. CDs are widely used as carriers in the construction of electrocatalysts prepared from carbon-based metal hybrid materials. At present, it is believed that CDs exhibit excellent confinement effects, which can effectively inhibit the growth and agglomeration of metal nanoparticles, thereby preparing well-distributed carbon-based metal hybrid materials with a uniform and controllable size. However, the formation process of the small-molecule raw materials of CDs has not been elucidated. In this study, CDs and small-molecule raw materials from synthetic CDs were used as precursors to prepare nitrogen-doped CD-supported ruthenium nanoparticle (Ru@CDs) and small-molecule-supported ruthenium nanoparticle (Ru@Molecule) hybrid materials, respectively. The interaction between the small molecules and Ru in the process of CD formation and the effect on HER performance were explored. Moreover, we prepared different carriers such as metal organic frameworks(MOF), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene (GO)-supported ruthenium nanoparticle hybrid materials. Among them, Ru@CDs exhibited controllable size and excellent dispersibility and exhibited outstanding HER activity and good stability. Ru@CDs were found to require a low overpotential of 22 mV to reach a current density of 10 mA·cm⁻². Moreover, we observed the presence of an intermediate state between the molecules and CDs and demonstrated that the intermediate state exhibits no confinement effect. Furthermore, we found that with increasing calcination temperature, the intermediate state gradually changes to CDs. The unique spatial confinement between CDs and metal ions is key to the formation of monodisperse Ru nanoparticles. Our results confirmed that Ru@CDs serve as excellent HER catalyst supports. This work not only reveals the effect of the unique spatial confinement of CDs on the supported metals and their promoting effect on electrocatalytic activity but also provides guides the future development of CD-based metal hybrid electrocatalysts.     

直键与弯键的对称性判据

一穹键的提出人们认为,杂化轨道(HAO)角函数的最大值方向(亦即HAO的方向)指向与之键合的原子,这样形成的化学键称为“直键”。但环丙烷分子中的三个碳原子构成三元环,有60°的键角。而任意两个正交的S-P杂化轨道之间的夹角θ都不可能小于90°,因而形成C-C键的HAO,不可能指向键合原子,环上的C-C键不可能是直键,而是“弯键”(BentBond)。通常,人们认为张力分子环上的键是弯键,其他的键为直键。     

Covalent modification of calcium hydroxyapatite surface by grafting phenyl phosphonate moieties

The reaction between phenyl phosphonic dichloride (C₆H₅P(O)Cl₂) and synthetic calcium hydroxy- and fluorapatite has been investigated. The presence of mono- or polymeric (C₆H₅PO) fragment bound to hydroxyapatite was evidenced by IR, and solid-state ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. X-ray powder analysis has shown that the apatitic structure remains unchanged during the reaction. In contrast, no reaction was found using fluorapatite. According to the results found for these two different apatites a mechanism was proposed for the formation of covalent P-O-P bonds as the result of a reaction between the C₆H₅P(O)Cl₂ organic reagent and (HPO₄)⁻ and/or OH⁻ ions of the hydroxyapatite.     

Hybrid polymerization of iso-butyl vinyl ether

The radiation-induced hybrid polymerization in the presence of the N-alkoxypyridinium salt having relatively stable nonnucleophilic anion (PF₆⁻) has been investigated in the paper. Based on the analysis of experimental data and the GPC spectrum, the onium salts not only oxidize -alkoxyalkyl radicals, produced from IBVE in dichloromethane by irradiation, to the corresponding cations, but also give nonnucleophilic anions PF₆⁻ for the polymerization system. The experimental results clearly demonstrate that free radical and cationic polymerization mechanisms occurred simultaneously in IBVE/EMP⁺PF₆⁻/CH₂Cl₂ systems on irradiation with γ-ray.     

Ternary and tetrahedral symmetry in hybrid fluorides, fluoride carbonates and carbonates

Tren amine cations and carbonate anions adopt a ternary symmetry while tetra amine cations are tetrahedral. The symmetry of these constitutive ions influences strongly the nature of the solids which crystallise from solutions. Large fluorinated aluminate polyanions with tetrahedral symmetry appear in the presence of tren amine, while infinite chains of AlF₆ octahedra are observed with tetra amine and that noncentrosymmetric structures are frequently encountered in rare earth fluoride carbonates.

Impulsive systems with hybrid delayed impulses: Input-to-state stability

This paper investigates input-to-state stability (ISS) and integral-input-to-state stability (iISS) of nonlinear impulsive systems with hybrid delayed impulses. Based on Lyapunov method, some sufficient conditions ensuring ISS and iISS of impulsive systems are obtained, where the time derivative of Lyapunov function is indefinite, and the hybrid effects of delayed impulses are also fully considered. It is shown that the impulsive system is ISS provided that the combined action of time delay existing in impulses, continuous dynamic, and the cumulative strength of hybrid impulses satisfies some conditions, even if the hybrid delayed impulses play a destabilizing effect on ISS. Examples and their simulations are presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed results.     

Enhancing the organic dye adsorption on porous xerogels

We investigate the adsorption of four different organic dyes (i.e., methyl orange, alizarin red S, brilliant blue FCF, and phenol red) on porous xerogels. To understand the factors affecting the adsorption capacity of the xerogels, we vary the hydrophobicity and the textural properties of the xerogels as well as the solution pH. We control the hydrophobicity by mixing two different precursors (i.e., vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)) and the textural properties by using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a templating agent. We find that the adsorption capacity is enhanced as the organic/inorganic hybrid xerogel or the templated xerogel is used instead of the purely inorganic or the untemplated xerogel. In all the cases studied, adsorption decreases as the pH is increased due to the electrostatic repulsion between the dyes and the xerogel surface. We find that both the hydrophobic surface and larger pore size/volume are required to enhance the adsorption capacity significantly.     

Analysis of grid file algorithms

Grid file algorithms were suggested in [12] to provide multi-key access to records in a dynamically growing file. We specify here two algorithms and derive the average sizes of the corresponding directories. We provide an asymptotic analysis. The growth of the indexes appears to be non-linear for uniform distributions:O(v ^c ) orO(v ), wherec=1+b^–1, =1+(s-1)/(sb+1),s is the number of attributes being used,v the file size, andb the page capacity of the system. Finally we give corresponding results for biased distributions and compare transient phases.     

Facile hydrothermal construction of Nb_2CT_x/Nb_2O_5 as a hybrid anode material for high-performance Li-ion batteries

Herein,a simple yet efficient hydrothermal strategy is developed to in-situ convert multi-layered niobium-based MXene(Nb_2 CT_x) to hierarchical Nb2 CTx/Nb_2O_5 composite.In the hybrid,the Nb_2O_5 nanorods are well dispersed in and/or on the Nb_2 CTx.Thanks to the synergetic contributions from the high capacity of Nb_2O_5 and superb electrical conductivity of the two-dimensional Nb_2 CT_x itself,the resultant Nb_2 CTx/Nb_2O_5 hybrid exhibits excellent rate behaviors and stable long-term cycling behaviors,when evaluated as anodes for Li-ion batteries.
