In this study, four different promising two-layer composite coatings on titanium substrates with antibacterial properties were investigated. Two different types of antibacterial agents were used to impart antibacterial properties to the coatings: antibiotic amikacin (in three different concentrations) and zinc. Chitosan, which also has antibacterial properties, was used as a carrier layer for amikacin on a calcium phosphate coating incorporating zinc. This combination should enable long-term antibacterial properties of a bone implant and thus prevent potential complications during wound healing due to bacterial contamination. To examine the physico-chemical properties of the samples, the elemental, chemical and phase compositions, the thickness and the wettability of the coatings were investigated. The release of amikacin from the chitosan coatings was investigated using high-performance liquid chromatography. Antibacterial activity of the prepared coatings was evaluated against five hospital bacteria strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae) and one strain from the microbial strain collection (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC 43300). To investigate the cell toxicity of the composite coating, cell adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation were tested with mesenchymal stem cells. According to the results, the composite coatings with an amikacin concentration of 5.0 and 7.5 percent by weight have the best biological and antibacterial properties.

Developing effective photocatalysts for water splitting is essential to generating H2 energy sources. Herein, a novel ZnFe2O4@ZnIn2S4/Au ternary composite (abbreviated as ZFO@ZIS/Au) was successfully designed and fabricated by loading Au nanoparticles on the ZFO@ZIS surfaces for effective photocatalytic H2 generation for the first time. Attributed to the synergistic effect of the traditional II-type heterojunction charge transfer and Au nanoparticles as co-catalysts, the ZFO@ZIS/Au heterojunction generated greater amounts of hydrogen under visible light irradiation. The ZFO-7 %@ZIS/Au-2 catalyst displayed the highest H2 production rate of 1145.38 μmol∙g−1∙h−1, which was almost 3.87 times more than the ZIS value. Furthermore, several characterization techniques were performed to investigate the catalysts and evaluate the catalyst's photocatalytic activity when exposed to visible light. Lastly, a detailed discussion of the corresponding photocatalytic H2 production process of the as-prepared ZFO@ZIS/Au heterojunction was provided. The distinctive research might offer a potential approach for modifying zinc ferrate for photocatalytic hydrogen production.

Nanocomposites are promising in advanced materials for environmental applications due to their ability to boost functionality through synergistic effects. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is renowned for its exceptional characteristics in photocatalysis. This work examines the preparation of g-C3N4 from different precursors, and how the presence of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and silver ions (Ag+) in g-C3N4 matrices improve their combined effect on photocatalytic activity, specifically in the degradation of para-nitrophenol (PNP), a persistent organic pollutant. From urea and melamine precursors for the preparation of g-C3N4, the latter provided a much higher yield. Using an easy synthesis approach, Ag NPs were evenly distributed in the g-C3N4 framework, whereas Ag+ ions were incorporated by an apparent physical procedure. A bio-inspired, environmentally friendly method was also applied to prepare Ag NPs. The nanocomposites showed improved light absorption and separation of charge carriers due to the synergistic interaction between g-C3N4 and Ag species. Using UV and Vis LED light sources, we investigated both pure g-C3N4 and Ag-g-C3N4 catalysts. For breaking down para-nitrophenol, the silver-modified catalysts performed significantly better than pure g-C3N4 in both UV and Vis. The study clarified the functions of Ag NPs and Ag+ ions in enhancing photocatalytic activity by examining their involvement in generating reactive oxygen species and degrading pollutants. This work highlights the capability of g-C3N4-based nanocomposites as effective photocatalysts for environmental remediation. It also explores the benefits of adding silver species to improve performance in degrading pollutants.

Herein, wideband microwave absorbing materials with high flexibility are developed by creating a novel layered organogel composite consisting of carbonyl iron particles (CIP) and polyacrylamide (PAM), employing ethylene glycol (EG) as the solvent. The microwave absorbing properties of layered absorbers with different CIP contents are investigated over the 1–18 GHz range. An integrated stratified architecture was obtained using polar EG molecules and magnetic CIP particles, which were the main contributors to magnetic and dielectric losses in the PAM matrix. The results indicated that the minimum reflection loss reaches a value of −48.0 dB at a thickness of 2 mm and a frequency of 15.5 GHz; meanwhile, an effective absorption bandwidth of 3.2 GHz in the C-band can also be obtained. An analysis of the absorption mechanism shows that the combination of an impedance-matching layer composed of CIP magnetic particles and an absorption layer composed of EG polar molecules in the PAM matrix provides strong broadband absorption in the C-band. Overall, the CIP/EG@PAM organogel composites have simple preparation, high flexibility, and it has adhesion. This study provides a new strategy for designing wideband microwave absorbing materials.

Biochar is widely known as a highly effective adsorbent for water treatment, capable of removing a wide range of pollutants. However, its saturation point limits its long-term use, but regeneration can extend its applicability. This study aims to develop a sustainable method for removing pollutants from water that aligns with the concept of the circular economy. Biochar derived from forest residue was used to remove emerging pollutants such as fipronil (FIP), venlafaxine (VEN), sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and trimethoprim (TRM). A comparative analysis of the adsorption of the studied pollutants onto biochar was performed by analyzing the kinetics, where it was found that SMX exhibited the lowest adsorption efficiency, prompting further optimization experiments. Under optimal conditions, adsorption isotherms were used to investigate the pollutant removal mechanisms. The results showed that biochar exhibited high adsorption capacities for FIP, VEN, SMX and TRM, which were 3.77, 2.09, 2.71 and 3.88 mg/g, respectively. Regeneration treatments were applied to remove adsorbed contaminants after biochar saturation. Among them, heat-activated persulfate showed the most effective regeneration, maintaining biochar's adsorption capacity after five cycles with no significant loss. Eventual morphological, structural and chemical alterations post-regeneration were assessed using different characterization techniques. The findings of this research highlight the potential of biochar for sustainable water treatment, supporting the circular economy by extending its life cycle through effective regeneration.

Three hybrids of quinolin-8-ol-imidazole were scrutinized as corrosion inhibitors in 1 M HCl for carbon steel (Cstl). These hybrids are 5-((2-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)quinoline-8-ol (Quin-Amino), 5-((4,5-diphenyl-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)quinoline-8-ol (Quin-Tolyl), and 5-((2-(4-bromophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)quinoline-8-ol (Quin-Br). The current research includes a mixture of methods. In addition to computational approaches, several experimental approaches were employed, such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDX), UV–vis spectroscopy, and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP). The investigated hybrids' corrosion resistance was encountered to be concerned by the concentration, temperature, and chemical structure, which attained a maximum of 96.1 % for Quin-Amino, 93.4 % for Quin-Tolyl, and 92.5 % for Quin-Br at 10−3 M, respectively. The PDP results illustrated that the studied hybrids performed as mixed-type inhibitors. In addition, the chemisorption of these hybrids on the Cstl surface obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. SEM-EDX confirmed that the effectiveness of the three hybrids lies in their capability to develop an organic layer on the Cstl surface. The density functional theory (DFT) was employed for theoretical calculations. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations manifest that hybrids are oriented beneficially on the Fe (110) surface, providing a high surface coverage and thus a high inhibition performance.

A novel Fe-based perovskite hybrid catalyst was designed by sol-gel preparation of Ni-substitution of LaFeO3 containing in-situ growth of metal oxyhydroxide (MeOOH, Me=Mn, Ni, Co). The performances of metal oxyhydroxide-perovskite composites (MeOOH/LaFe0.5Ni0.5O3) for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation and ofloxacin (OFL) degradation were investigated. CoOOH/LaFe0.5Ni0.5O3 exhibited the best OFL degradation efficiency of 91.84 % within 15 min. Compared with LaFe0.5Ni0.5O3, the specific surface area (from 21.391 to 100.216 m2·g−1) and pore volume (from 0.080 to 0.226 cm3·g−1) of CoOOH/LaFe0.5Ni0.5O3 increased drastically. Among the structures and properties, substitution of Ni into B-site of LaFeO3 accelerated the electron transfer and promoted the redox cycle between Fe3+/Fe2+ and Ni2+/Ni0. Besides, doping with CoOOH could provide more active sites for the catalyst and more electrons for the activation of PMS to generate reactive species. The higher redox potential of Co ions resulted in good thermodynamic cycling between Co3+/Co2+, Fe3+/Fe2+ and Ni2+/Ni0. Moreover, oxygen vacancies (Vo) on the material surface were involved in the activation of PMS. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) verified that the catalytic reaction was primarily driven by both ·O2- (radical way) and 1O2 (non-radical way), with electron transfer process (ETP) also had some effect on OFL degradation. In addition, the conversion of radicals to non-radicals was demonstrated. Finally, the degradation pathway of OFL and the ecotoxicity of the intermediates were proposed. The work provided scientific support and theoretical basis for the development of efficient heterogeneous PMS catalysts.

This study addresses the diverse application requirements of turbine blades by utilizing a composite anti-seepage masking layer to protect the Ni-based superalloy from Al deposition during aluminizing. Simultaneously, the unmasked areas simulate blade airfoils for aluminized coating formation. Ethylene-based and glass-ceramic coatings were evaluated for anti-seepage effectiveness after aluminizing at 800 ∼ 1000 ℃. The results reveal that ethylene-based coatings prevent Al diffusion into the substrate at 800 ℃, and degradation occurs at higher temperatures. However, adding a glass-ceramic coating significantly enhances high-temperature stability and suppresses ethylene-based coating fluidity. The composited anti-seepage masking layer, with the ethylene-based and glass-ceramic coating applied twice, exhibits excellent anti-seepage masking performance on GH4169, DZ22B, and K477 superalloys, providing protection and easy removal without affecting unmasked areas. This approach improves the comprehensive performance of turbine blades, meeting the requirements of both dovetail and airfoil sections.

Inorganic-organic perovskites are considered as one of the emerging candidates as a tribopositive material in triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) owing to their unique functionalities. Among them, quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites are promising materials for TENG due to layered nature, excellent environmental and chemical stability, tunability, and excellent electrical properties. Herein, we investigate the performance of TENG based on multiple series of perovskite layers using simple solution processing technique. The dimensionality of the perovskite layers is attained by changing the stoichiometric ratios of phenylethylammonium iodide (PEAI), lead iodide (PbI2), methylammonium iodide (MAI). The quasi-2D based TENG generates the maximum output electrical performance with a voltage of 306 V, current of 4.71 µA, and maximum power density of 3.48 µW/cm2 at the optimum value of (<n> = 5) due to the higher concentration of C–N and N–H groups. Moreover, the fabricated device shows stable performance for 12,000 cycles. The TENG device is further utilized to charge the various commercially available capacitors, for lightning of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and to power up low-power electronic devices. These results demonstrate the effect of the dimensionality of perovskites on the output performance of the TENG for use in next-generation energy harnessing.
无机有机包晶石因其独特的功能而被认为是三电纳米发电机(TENG)中新兴的三电材料之一。其中,准二维(quasi-2D)包晶石因其层状性质、优异的环境和化学稳定性、可调性和出色的电学特性而成为很有前景的三电纳米发电机材料。在此,我们利用简单的溶液处理技术研究了基于多系列包晶层的 TENG 性能。我们通过改变苯基乙基碘化铵(PEAI)、碘化铅(PbI2)和甲基碘化铵(MAI)的化学计量比来实现包晶石层的维度。由于 C-N 和 N-H 基团的浓度较高,基于准二维的 TENG 在最佳值(<n> = 5)时可产生最大输出电气性能,电压为 306 V,电流为 4.71 µA,最大功率密度为 3.48 µW/cm2。此外,所制造的器件在 12,000 次循环中表现出稳定的性能。TENG 器件还可进一步用于为各种市售电容器充电、为发光二极管(LED)照明以及为低功耗电子设备供电。这些结果表明了包晶尺寸对 TENG 输出性能的影响,可用于下一代能源利用。

This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the synthesis and characterization of ZrB2/ZrC/SiC composite coatings on carbon fiber substrates via a solution-based process followed by high-temperature pyrolysis. The precursor solution was prepared using Gum Ghatti (GG), zirconyl chloride, tetraethyl orthosilicate, and boric acid. Optimization of precursor concentration and molar ratios was performed to achieve suitable viscosity and composition. The pyrolysis process was conducted in an argon atmosphere, resulting in the formation of well-defined ZrB2, ZrC, and SiC phases. XRD analysis confirmed the phase composition, while SEM imaging revealed spheroidal particle aggregates with a uniform distribution of composite phases. TG-DTA analysis reveals the thermal decomposition behavior, highlighting distinct stages of mass loss and phase transformations. Coated carbon fibers exhibited enhanced oxidation resistance, as evidenced by TGA analysis. SEM analysis confirmed the uniform distribution and adhesion of the composite matrix on the carbon fiber substrate. This study demonstrates the successful synthesis of ZrB2/ZrC/SiC composite coatings with promising thermal properties for advanced applications.
