This article presents a vision for advancing the development of next-generation flame-retardant materials through the utilization of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The proposed vision is centered on four key areas: industrialization, multifunctionality, ligand synthesis, and derivatives. By optimizing production processes, customizing MOFs for specific properties and applications, and developing novel ligands and derivatives, the effectiveness and versatility of MOFs as flame-retardant materials can be significantly enhanced. This vision represents a promising direction for the field that has the potential to address critical safety concerns across various industries.

A large driving pressure is required for barocaloric effects (BCEs) in intermetallics, usually above 100 MPa. Here, we report barocaloric effects in Mn3-xPt1+xalloys saturated at about 60 MPa, the lowest pressure reported in intermetallics to date. A first-order phase transition occurs from the colinear antiferromagnetic phase to the triangular antiferromagnetic phase as temperature decreases. The transition temperature strongly depends on the composition x, ranging from 331 K for x = 0.18 to 384 K for x = 0.04, and is sensitive to pressure, with dTt/dP up to 139 K/GPa. However, the maximum pressure-induced entropy changes are as small as 13.79 J kg-1 K-1, attributed to the mutual cancellation of lattice and magnetic entropy changes. The small driving pressure and total entropy changes are due to the special magnetic geometric frustration.
金属间化合物的压热效应(BCEs)需要较大的驱动压力,通常在100mpa以上。在这里,我们报道了Mn3-xPt1+ x合金在60 MPa左右饱和时的气压效应,这是迄今为止金属间化合物中报道的最低压力。随着温度的降低,一阶相变由共线性反铁磁相向三角形反铁磁相转变。转变温度强烈依赖于x的组成,范围从331 K (x = 0.18)到384 K (x = 0.04),并且对压力敏感,dTt/dP高达139 K/GPa。然而,由于晶格和磁熵变化相互抵消,压力诱导的最大熵变化很小,仅为13.79 J kg-1 K-1。驱动压力和总熵变化较小是由于特殊的磁几何挫败。

eramics with high-energy storage density are in high demand across various industries. In this regard, lead-free relaxor ferroelectric ceramics were synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method with the composition (1-x)[0.94Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-0.06BaTiO3]-xSr0.8Biγ0.1Ti0.8Zr0.2O0.95, abbreviated as BNBT-xSBTZ. The incorporation of SBTZ in BNBT ceramics significantly improved their relaxation properties. Specifically, the 0.91BNBT-0.09SBTZ ceramics displayed a breakdown electric field of up to 230 kV/cm, with a recoverable energy storage density (Wr) of 2.68 J/cm3 and an energy storage efficiency (η) of 74.4%. Additionally, this sample demonstrated remarkable temperature stability and fatigue resistance, with only an 11% decrease in Wr observed from room temperature to 140 °C and a 13.3% reduction in Wr after 105 electrical cycles. Therefore, the 0.91BNBT-0.09SBTZ ceramic is a promising dielectric material suitable for energy-storage dielectric capacitors

Photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) is a promising technology for carbon recycling that offers both environmental and economic benefits. Among the potential photocatalysts, metal nanoclusters (MNCs) stand out as a class of materials with remarkable photophysical and photochemical properties. Despite the growing number of studies on MNCs-based photocatalytic reduction of CO2 in recent years, a systematic and comparative overview of these studies is still lacking. This review provides a concise and comprehensive summary of the latest research on MNCs-based catalysts for enhancing photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance. Moreover, this review highlights the challenges and opportunities in this field based on the current development trends.

The two-dimensional (2D) materials offer atomic-level thickness and unique physical and chemical properties for the preparation of a new class of membranes, i.e., nanochannel membranes. The nanochannel membranes have been utilized in a broad spectrum of new separation applications. However, the instability of the nanochannels, interfacial instability of 2D materials, and the swelling problem could damage the membrane performance, such as permeability, selectivity, and service lifetime. Innovative strategies for constructing and regulating the nanochannels are enthusiastically explored to address these challenges. Along this line, in this work, we first provide insight into the mechanisms of the nanochannel construction, the separation mechanism, and the effect of nanochannels on the separation performance. Then, the strategies developed in the literature, in particular, the strategies for the preparation of ideal 2D nanosheets, the strategies for constructing nanochannels, and the strategies for regulating the characteristics of nanochannels (channel size, channel length, channel morphology, and channel surface physicochemical properties) are systematically summarized. After that, we briefly introduce the application of 2D-material-based nanochannel membranes and outline the current challenges and provide an outlook in the further exploration of separation mechanism, large-scale manufacturing, and the eventual commercialization of the membranes.

Biomineralization is a process that leads to the formation of hierarchically arranged structures in mineralized tissues, such as bone and teeth. Extensive research has been conducted on the crystals in bones and teeth, with the aim of understanding the underlying mechanisms of the mineralization process. Pathological/ectopic mineralization, such as kidney stones, calcific tendinitis, and skeletal fluorosis, shares some similar features but different mechanisms to physiological mineralization. A better understanding will provide new perspectives for treating pathological/ectopic mineralization-related diseases. This review provides an overview of the mechanisms of the crystallization and growth of crystals in physiological and pathological conditions from a chemistry perspective. By linking the microstructures and functions of crystals formed in both conditions, potential approaches are proposed to treat pathological/ectopic mineralization-related diseases.
