A versatile platform for colorimetric, fluorescence and photothermal multi-mode glyphosate sensing by carbon dots anchoring ferrocene metal-organic framework nanosheet.

With the depletion of fossil fuels and global warming, there is an urgent demand to seek green, low-cost, and high-efficiency energy resources. Hydrogen has been considered as a potential candidate to replace fossil fuels, due to its high gravimetric energy density (142 MJ kg−1), high abundance (H2O), and environmental-friendliness. However, due to its low volume density, effective and safe hydrogen storage techniques are now becoming the bottleneck for the "hydrogen economy". Under such a circumstance, Mg-based hydrogen storage materials garnered tremendous interests due to their high hydrogen storage capacity (~ 7.6 wt% for MgH2), low cost, and excellent reversibility. However, the high thermodynamic stability (ΔH = − 74.7 kJ mol−1 H2) and sluggish kinetics result in a relatively high desorption temperature (> 300 °C), which severely restricts widespread applications of MgH2. Nano-structuring has been proven to be an effective strategy that can simultaneously enhance the ab/de-sorption thermodynamic and kinetic properties of MgH2, possibly meeting the demand for rapid hydrogen desorption, economic viability, and effective thermal management in practical applications. Herein, the fundamental theories, recent advances, and practical applications of the nanostructured Mg-based hydrogen storage materials are discussed. The synthetic strategies are classified into four categories: free-standing nano-sized Mg/MgH2 through electrochemical/vapor-transport/ultrasonic methods, nanostructured Mg-based composites via mechanical milling methods, construction of core-shell nano-structured Mg-based composites by chemical reduction approaches, and multi-dimensional nano-sized Mg-based heterostructure by nanoconfinement strategy. Through applying these strategies, near room temperature ab/de-sorption (< 100 °C) with considerable high capacity (> 6 wt%) has been achieved in nano Mg/MgH2 systems. Some perspectives on the future research and development of nanostructured hydrogen storage materials are also provided.

Electrolytes have recently regained significant attention in rechargeable batteries due to the discovery that the electrolyte microstructures play a determinant role in battery performance. By adjusting the compositions of electrolytes to cater to various functionalities, such as high‐voltage, fast‐charging, wide‐temperature operation, and non‐flammable features, a diverse range of batteries can be developed to adapt to different environmental working conditions. Nevertheless, elucidating the electrolyte microstructures and understanding the associated electrode interfacial behaviors remain challenging. These challenges arise from the interdisciplinary nature of the research, encompassing subjects such as solution chemistry, interface chemistry, electrochemistry, and organic chemistry. This topic holds particular significance because solution chemistry and solution‐solid interface chemistry are ubiquitous in daily lives, yet their behaviors remain unclear due to their inherent complexity, dynamic nature, and rapid variability. In this context, electrolyte and electrolyte‐electrode interface research are used as an illustrative example and summarize their progress from six key perspectives of graphic, quantitation, visualization, standardization, digitization, and intelligence. It is aimed to provide a multi‐faceted understanding of electrolyte microstructures and their behaviors on the electrode interface. This comprehensive approach enables the effective design of electrolytes and enhances the accuracy of predicting battery performance, servicing the development of solution and solution‐solid interface.

Effects of Cu doping on the hydrogen storage performance of Ti-Mn-based, AB2-type alloys

Herein, we explored a colorimetric and photothermal readout strategy based on silver-doped prussian blue nanoparticles (SPB NPs) hydrogel for detection of trimethylamine (TMA) and monitoring of shrimp/fish freshness. The functional hydrogel is fabricated via the addition of SPB NPs to agarose hydrogel. TMA vapor can permeate into the functional hydrogel, thereby causing the decomposition of SPB NPs along with the color evolution (blue to colorless) and the disappearance of photothermal effects. The color information was digitized by a smartphone combined with RGB (red/green/blue) analysis. The photothermal effects was recorded by a handheld thermal imager. The ∆R gray value and temperature evolutions of the functional hydrogel were all closely related to the concentration of TMA, making it successful in the assessment of shrimp/fish freshness. Both colorimetric and photothermal signals are linear response to TMA concentration from 0.21 to 0.54 ppm. The application of smartphone and handheld thermal imager greatly improves the portability and practicality of monitoring on-spot. More significantly, the photothermal signal can still be applied to assess food freshness, when the hydrogel is contaminated by the colored food substrates and the colorimetric signal cannot be used to assessment. To our knowledge, this is the first time that a photothermal strategy has been developed to monitor food freshness. Therefore, this simple, cost-effective, nondestructive and sensitive dual-mode functional hydrogel will open up a new prospect for monitoring of food spoilage.

Preparation and hydrogen storage performance of poplar sawdust biochar with high specific surface area

Interface and body engineering via aluminum hydride enabling Ti-V-Cr-Mn alloy with enhanced hydrogen storage performance

Effective hydrogen storage capacity is a key factor for applications of solid-state hydrogen storage technology. In this work, V-based solid solution alloys were prepared and the effect of codoping Cr and the rare-earth Y element on the crystal microstructure and reversible hydrogen storage properties were investigated. The results revealed that the hydrogen absorption of Ti–V–Mn–Cr–Y alloys could exceed 90% of the maximum hydrogen capacity within 50 s at 6 MPa hydrogen pressure, and the alloy Ti0.9Y0.1V1.1Mn0.8Cr0.1 can absorb maximum 3.71 wt % hydrogen capacity, and the effective hydrogen capacity above 0.1 MPa can reach 2.53 wt % at 423 K. Furthermore, the dehydriding thermodynamic parameters revealed a significant tendency toward easier dehydrogenation with codoping of trans-metal and rare-earth metal elements.
