Biomimetic inorganic-organic hybrid nanoparticles from magnesium-substituted amorphous calcium phosphate clusters and polyacrylic acid molecules

Amorphous calcium phosphate(ACP)has been widely found during bone and tooth biomineralization,but the meta-stability and labile nature limit further biomedical applications.The present study found that the chelation of polyacrylic acid(PAA)molecules with Ca^(2+)ions in Mg-ACP clusters(~2.1±0.5 nm)using a biomineralization strategy produced inorganic-organic Mg-ACP/PAA hybrid nanoparticles with better thermal stability.Mg-ACP/PAA hybrid nanoparticles(~24.0±4.8 nm)were pH-responsive and could be efficiently digested under weak acidic conditions(pH 5.0-5.5).The internalization of assembled Mg-ACP/PAA nanoparticles by MC3T3-E1 cells occurred through endocytosis,indicated by laser scanning confocal microscopy and cryo-soft X-ray tomography.Our results showed that cellular lipid membranes remained intact without pore formation after Mg-ACP/PAA particle penetration.The assembled Mg-ACP/PAA particles could be digested in cell lysosomes within 24 h under weak acidic conditions,thereby indicating the potential to efficiently deliver encapsulated functional molecules.Both the in vitro and in vivo results preliminarily demonstrated good biosafety of the inorganic-organic Mg-ACP/PAA hybrid nanoparticles,which may have potential for biomedical applications.

Lead removal from water using organic acrylic amine fiber(AAF)and inorganic-organic P-AAF,fixed bed filtration and surface-induced precipitation

Granular porous sorbents were normally used for heavy metals removal from water.To search for the new commercial sorbent and treatment strategy,an organic acrylic amine fiber(AAF)and phosphorus loading inorganic-organic AAF(P-AAF)were prepared and used for lead(Pb)removal from water.A new strategy of inorganic-organic coupling technology was proposed for Pb removal,based on the hypothesis of surface-induced precipitation mechanism.The AAF showed a Pb adsorption capacity of 417 mg/g from the Langmuir fitting,while the column filtration technology was further applied to measure the adsorption edge and applications.Effects of different initial Pb concentrations,hydraulic retention time,and co-existing P were considered in the filtration experiments.The presence of 0.8 mg/L P in water significantly improved the Pb breakthrough point from 15,000 to 41,000 bed volumes of water spiked with 85μg/L Pb,while the P-AAF fixed bed showed better removal of Pb than AAF SEM/EDX and XRD spectra were employed for determining the surface functional groups and the formation of surface-induced precipitation of pyromorphite(Pb_5(PO_4)_3 OH)on AAF.This study verified the application of AAF sorbent for Pb removal and the enhanced effect of coating P on AAF,thus improved our fundamental understanding and application of the surface chemistry process of Pb with P.

An Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Polymer Cocatalyst for Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation with Dual Functions of Accelerating Kinetics and Improving Charge Transfer

Oxygen evolution cocatalysts(OECs)play important roles in improving the efficiency of photocatalysts in solar water splitting.Inorganic–organic hybrid polymers(IOHPs),which have good electrolyte accessibility and evenly distributed active sites,are expected to be promising OECs.Here,a novel IOHP[Co(Bpn)_(2)(SCN)_(2)]n(1,Bpn=2,6-bis(4-pyridyl)-naphthalene,SCN=thiocyanate ion)exhibited a two-dimensional(2D)layer structure with(4,4)topology,was constructed by Bpn ligands connecting Co(II)ions,and was decorated on BiVO_(4) photoanodes for photoelectrochemical(PEC)water oxidation.The 1/BiVO_(4) hybrid electrode showed significantly negative onset potential and approximately 3.7 times higher photocurrent density at 1.23 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE)compared with the bare BiVO_(4).The mechanisms for the improved PEC efficiency were investigated and mainly ascribed to enhanced water oxidation kinetics and increased charge separation and transfer properties.This work provides a promising OEC candidate for PEC water oxidation and sheds light on the attractive application prospect of IOHPs for solar water splitting.

Dendrite-free Zn deposition initiated by nanoscale inorganic-organic coating-modified 3D host for stable Zn-ion battery

A 3D nanostructured scaffold as the host for zinc enables effective inhibition of anodic dendrite growth.However,the increased electrode/electrolyte interface area provided by using 3D matrices exacerbates the passivation and localized corrosion of the Zn anode,ultimately bringing about the degradation of the electrochemical performance.Herein,a nanoscale coating of inorganic-organic hybrid(α-In_(2)Se_(3)-Nafion)onto a flexible carbon nanotubes(CNTs)framework(ISNF@CNTs)is designed as a Zn plating/stripping scaffold to ensure uniform Zn nucleation,thus achieving a dendrite-free and durable Zn anode.The intro-duced inorganic-organic interfacial layer is dense and sturdy,which hinders the direct exposure of deposited Zn to electrolytes and mitigates the side reactions.Meanwhile,the zincophilic nature of ISNF can largely reduce the nucleation energy barrier and promote the ion-diffusion transportation.Consequently,the ISNF@CNTs@Zn electrode exhibits a low-voltage hysteresis and a superior cycling life(over 1500 h),with dendrite-free Zn-plating behaviors in a typical symmetrical cell test.Additionally,the superior feature of ISNF@CNTs@Zn anode is further demonstrated by Zn-MnO_(2)cells in both coin and flexible quasi-solid-state configurations.This work puts forward an inspired remedy for advanced Zn-ion batteries.

MIXED EXCITATION IN ELECTROLUMINESENCE

Among the present three types of electric field-induced luminescence we noticed similarities between the inorganic and organic materials in electric field intensity. In this high electric field range SiO2 has three functions: acceleration,excitation and multiplication of electrons. Based on the acceleration effect, cathodoluminescence-like emission of organic molecules and polymers was found. By using the three functions of SiO2 or II-VI compounds and the heterojunction of inorganic and organic material we realized different variants of mixed excitation in electroluminescence.

Progress of Pb-Sn Mixed Perovskites for Photovoltaics: A Review

Pb-Sn mixed perovskites are becoming increasingly popular as narrowbandgap(1.2–1.3 eV)light absorbers in single-junction perovskite solar cells(PSCs)and as bottom cells for all-perovskite tandem solar cells,for highefficiency,low-cost,lightweight,roll-to-roll printable photovoltaic(PV)applications.From the first report of planar Pb:Sn mixed PSCs in 2014,the power conversion efficiencies(PCE)have increased from 10%to 21%by the end of 2020 with an exponential growth in research conducted in this field.Despite much effort,the performance and stability of Pb-Sn mixed PSCs are still limited,which constrains their long-term use in all-perovskite tandem devices.This review highlights the avenues explored in improving different aspects of Pb-Sn mixed PSCs and provides a comprehensive discussion of the interdependent factors affecting the device performance.This includes compositional engineering of the perovskite crystal,absorber layer fabrication and crystallization methods,bandgap tuning,Sn4+reduction,and surface passivation of the absorber layer,as well as the selection of interlayers and electrodes of the final PSC.

(C6H(14)N2)[NH4(ClO4)3] is a newly developed porous hybrid inorganic-organic framework material with easy access and excellent detonation performances,however,its thermal properties is still unclear and severely hampered further applications.In this study,thermal behaviors and non-isothermal decomposition reaction kinetics of(C6H(14)N2)[NH4(ClO4)3] were investigated systematically by the combination of differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and simultaneous thermal analysis methods.In-situ FTIR spectroscopy technology was applied for investigation of the structure changes of(C6H(14)N2) NH4(ClO4)3]and some selected referents for better understanding of interactions between different components during the heating process.Experiment results indicated that the novel molecular perovskite structure renders(C6H(14)N2)[NH4(ClO4)3] better thermal stability than most of currently used energetic materials.Underhigh temperature s,the stability of the cage skeleton constructed by NH4^+and ClO4^-ions determined the decomposition process rather than organic moiety confined in the skeleton.The simple synthetic method,good detonation performances and excellent thermal properties make(C6H(14)N2)[NH4(ClO4)3] an ideal candidate for the preparation of advanced explosives and propellants.

Recent Research Developments of Perovskite Solar Cells

For the first time in 2009,the inorganic-organic hybrid perovskite materials were applied in liquid dye-sensitized solar cells.In 2013,the power conversion efficiency successfully reached 15%,followed by great amount of research papers bursting out.Till August 2014,the highest efficiency is certified to 17.9%,and the reported efficiency is even up to 19.3%.They quickly go beyond dye-sensitized solar cells and organic solar cells.It is expected the perovskite has its efficiency same to the single-crystal silicon cells.The“game changer”of solar cells is coming.The perovskite solar cells are cheap and easily to be made,which will benefit both science and industry.This review summarized recent development of both perovskite materials and solar cell devices,not only including new material developments of perovskite compositions,structures,and fabrication methods,but also focusing on device structures,charge transfer mechanism and stability properties of perovskite solar cells.Their perspective is also estimated.

Simultaneous sorption of aqueous phenanthrene and phosphate onto bentonites modified with AlCl_(3) and CTMAB

The purpose of this work is to synthesize a new type of bentonite sorbent that can simultaneously remove both organic compounds and phosphate from water.Inorgan-ic-organic bentonites(Al-CTMAB-Bent)were synthesized by modifying bentonites with both AlCl3 and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide(CTMAB).Simultaneous sorption of aqueous phenanthrene and phosphate onto Al-CTMAB-Bent was examined.Removal rates of phenanthrene and phosphate from water reached 96.3% and 90.2%,respectively,at their respective initial concentrations of 1 mg/L and 5 mg/L and the added amount of Al-CTMAB-Bent was 1.25 g/L.The residual turbidity of the Al-CTMAB-Bent suspension decreased 81.4% compared to that of organobentonite sus-pension after a 1 h settling time.Thus,inorganic-organic ben-tonite can be used to treat wastewater containing both organic pollutants and phosphate.

Ultrathin zinc selenide nanosheet-based intercalation hybrid coupled with CdSe quantum dots showing enhanced photocatalytic CO_(2) reduction

Fabrication of well-designed heterojunctions is an extraordinarily attractive pathway for boosting the photocatalytic activity toward CO_(2) photoreduction.Herein,a novel kind of na nosheet-based intercalation hybrid coupled with CdSe quantum dots(QDs) was successfully fabricated by a facile solvothermal method and served as photocatalyst for full-spectrum-light-driven CO_(2) reduction.Ultra-small CdSe QDs were rationally in-situ introduced and coupled with lamellar ZnSe-intercalation hybrid nanosheet,resulting in the formation of CdSe Q.Ds/ZnSe hybrid heterojunction.Significantly,the concentration of Cd^(2+) could change directly the crystallinity and micromorphology of ZnSe intercalation hybrid,which in turn would impact on the photocatalysis activity.The optimized CdSe QDs/ZnSe hybrid-5 composite demonstrated a considerable CO yield rate of the 25.6 μmol g^(-1) h^(-1) without any additional cocatalysts or sacrificial agents assisting,making it one of the best reported performance toward CO_(2) photoreduction under full-spectrum light.The elevated CO_(2) photoreduction activity could be attributed to the special surface heterojunction,leading to improving the ability of light absorption and promoting the separation/transfer of photogenerated carriers.This present study developed a new strategy for designing inorganic-organic heterojunctions with enhanced photocatalyst for CO_(2) photoreduction and provided an available way to simultaneously mitigate the greenhouse effect and alleviate energy shortage pressure.
