Summary: This study utilized a surfactant-free assembly technique and hydrofluoric acid-assisted assembly method to successfully produce V2CTx + Ag + MWCNTs + Ag composite material. The results revealed that the doping of two Ag particles and the uniform growth of MWCNTs improved the electrical conductivity and stability of the composite material. Moreover, the composite material exhibited excellent charge transfer capability and specific capacitance retention. However, the addition of Ag particles and MWCNTs did not significantly enhance the electrochemical properties, which could be attributed to issues during the preparation process and requires further exploration.

Summary: MXene, a novel two-dimensional material, has great potential in the field of capacitors due to its large specific surface area, many active sites, and short ion transport paths. However, the unique two-dimensional structure is prone to collapse and accumulation, resulting in poor energy storage capacity. In this study, Ti3C2Tx/Ag/MWCNTs/Ag composites were successfully prepared to overcome the limitations. The composites exhibited good electrical conductivity, low internal resistance, and high capacitance contribution due to the synergy between Ti3C2Tx, Ag NPs, and MWCNTs.

Summary: Carbon is deposited onto a commercial 3YSZ powder bed using chemical vapor deposition, resulting in a few-layered-graphene (FLG) film. The powders are then consolidated by spark plasma sintering, leading to FLG located along the grain boundaries of the 3YSZ matrix. Pure 3YSZ exhibits higher toughness and fracture strength compared to composites, but the toughness of composites increases with increased carbon content. The composites are electrically conducting within a certain carbon concentration range.

Summary: Polyaniline-halloysite nanoclay composites (PHC) were successfully prepared through inverted emulsion polymerization technique using benzoyl peroxide (BP) as the oxidizing agent. The FTIR spectra showed vibration bands associated with the stretching of NH, benzenoid, and quinoid rings. The specific conductance of the composites decreased with increasing halloysite nanoclay concentration, while the XRD pattern exhibited peaks at 20.08(0) and 25.34(0). Thermogravimetric analysis indicated improved thermal resistance compared to pure polyaniline. Field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed agglomeration of polyaniline particles and coating on halloysite nanoclay. The AC specific conductance increased due to the formation of bipolar and polarons, while the dielectric constant decreased with increasing frequency. The highest dielectric constant was observed for PHC (70/30) at 10(2) Hz, with a value of 14.

Summary: The study compared the adsorption behaviors of methylene blue on microalga residue powder (MRP) and biochars derived from microalga residue (MRB) produced at different pyrolytic temperatures. Different models were used to describe the adsorption processes, and it was found that MRP showed better adsorption ability compared to MRB due to the loss of oxygen-containing functional groups after pyrolysis. Overall, microalga residue performed better for methylene blue removal compared to their pyrolyzed analogs.

Summary: Microplastics have been frequently found in freshwater environments, raising concerns about their ecological effects, particularly the impact of biofilms on freshwater ecosystems. The colonization of microbes on microplastics alters their transport behavior, with biofouled microplastics showing increased sinking tendencies compared to pristine ones. This highlights the importance of studying how biofouling affects the sinking and distribution of microplastics in freshwater environments.

Summary: This study proposed a new modification idea and synthesized a high-efficiency plant-based flocculant through three rounds of reactions using tannin, formaldehyde, and ammonia chloride. By employing three rounds of Mannich reactions, a modified tannin with a larger molecular weight and complex structure was obtained. The flocculation tests showed that the flocculation capacity of the modified tannins increased with the number of reaction rounds, reactants ratio, and appropriate reaction time and pH. The new modification idea and high-efficiency modified tannin are significant for the development of environmentally friendly flocculants and addressing the drawbacks of traditional chemical flocculants.

Summary: This study investigates the performance of sulfidated nanoscale zero-valent iron (S-nZVI) in removing pentachlorophenol (PCP) from water. The results show that PCP removal is achieved through a combination of adsorption, dechlorination, and OH-mediated oxidation, with dechlorination playing a leading role. The amount of adsorbed PCP correlates well with the dechlorination rate constant, although this correlation is not observed under certain water chemistry conditions. The effects of solution chemistry, such as pH, anions, organic matter, and oxygen conditions, on PCP adsorption and transformation are also studied.

Summary: In this study, a composite electrode composed of Ti/TiH2/beta-PbO2_Mn3O4@C was fabricated and investigated for zinc electrowinning. The composite electrode exhibited low overpotential, Tafel slope, icorr, and high voltage stability, outperforming most reported Ti-based PbO2 electrode materials. The excellent catalytic activity can be attributed to the low resistance and porous interlayer of TiH2 nanosheets, as well as the addition of Mn3O4@C micro-flakes to the active layer.
