Curriculum Reform Practices in “Cosmetic Product Formulation Design and Preparation Technology” Under the Perspective of Integration of Industry, Education, and Research

With the upgrading of industries,the cosmetics industry has posed new requirements for technical talents.As a professional core course in cosmetic technology,“Cosmetic Product Formulation Design and Preparation Technology”serves as the foundation for cultivating students’abilities in cosmetic development and preparation.To foster high-quality skilled talents capable of adapting to the rapid growth of color cosmetics and to better promote the deep integration of scientific and technological industries with curriculum teaching,the teacher team embarked on active explorations and practical teaching research for curriculum teaching reform from four dimensions:strengthening top-level design,enriching teaching content,optimizing teaching design,and reforming assessment methods.These efforts have enhanced students’comprehensive vocational qualities and innovative consciousness,contributing to the teaching reform in higher vocational colleges under the integration of industry,education,and research.

A Mini-Review on Metal Recycling from Spent Lithium Ion Batteries

The rapid growth of lithium ion batteries （LIBs） for portable electronic devices and electric vehicles has resulted in an increased number of spent LIBs. Spent LIBs contain not only dangerous heavy metals but also toxic chemicals that pose a serious threat to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, a great deal of attention has been paid to the development of an efficient process to recycle spent LIBs for both economic aspects and environmental protection. In this paper, we review the state-of-the-art processes for metal recycling from spent LIBs, introduce the structure of a LIB, and summarize all available technologies that are used in different recovery processes. It is notable that metal extraction and pretreatment play impor- tant roles in the whole recovery process, based on one or more of the principles of pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, biometallurgy, and so forth. By further comparing different recycling methods, existing challenges are identified and suggestions for improving the recycling effectiveness can be proposed.

Application of Mathematical Models in the Research of Chinese Herbal Compound Prescriptions

With the interdisciplinary development of multiple disciplines,mathematical models play a role as a bridge in the research process of Chinese herbal compounds,which can make full use of the interrelationships of knowledge,making the research and use of Chinese herbal compounds from complex and cumbersome to simple.This paper reviewed the research and application of mathematical models in the production and preparation,pharmacodynamics,pharmacokinetics and other aspects of Chinese herbal compound prescriptions,providing a theoretical basis for the development of the modern Chinese medicine industry.

Preparation of porous ceramic membrane from industrial product

BECAUSE ceramic membranes have excellent thermal stability,mechanic and structural stability,goodresistant stability to chemicals and microbes and high potential to be modified,on the one hand,ce-ramic membranes,as membrane separation materials,have an attractive prospect;on the other hand,it is possible to achieve the unification of reaction(especially for high temperature reaction)and sepa-

Systemic technology innovation management and analysis of other forms of IP protection

Industry 4.0 and the pandemic have caused recent changes in innovative development,economic situations,and restrictions in various companies and regions of the world,with new stricter legislation related to working conditions,hygiene standards,and health requirements.New technologies are a challenge to the transformation of problem companies and regions,as they often significantly impact economic development.Technological emissions,growing information on dementia among young people,cyber risks,and the risks of so-called advanced technologies(e.g.,bio-and nanotechnologies,Industry 4.0 tech)may raise societal concerns about technological progress.This study is part of our long-term research into technological innovation in different companies and regions.Its primary goal is to methodically emphasize the importance and role of the systemic management of technological innovation in companies and regions and analytically compare the innovation success of differently developed regions from a global perspective1.This research deals with an important aspect of technology management,namely,the processes of technological identification and the protection of related intellectual property(IP).The primary research question is:How has technological development been distributed across different regions over the last two decades?We hypothesize that Asian countries are increasingly moving away from Europe and North America in terms of technological innovation,other forms of technological IP protection,and overall access to innovation,while the focus is on the development of three non-patent forms of technological innovation protection:industrial designs,trademarks,and utility models.The results of our study reveal a significant difference in the approach to technological innovation management and the form of IP protection between so-called advanced and problem companies and regions.This study was conducted between 2018 and 2022.

The reaction of perfluoroalkanesulfinate——A novel method for the preparation ofperfluorocarboxylic acid and the coupling product perfluoroalkane

Oxidation of perfluoroalkanesulfinate usually resulted in the formation of the correspon-ding sulfonyl derivatives,thus reaction with hydrogen peroxide or halogen（Cl,Br,I）gavesulfonic acid or sulfonyl halides.However in comparison with alkanesulfinate the perfluo-ro analog was shown to be relatively inert toward oxidizing agents.
