Summary: In this study, nickel nanoparticles (Ni-NPs) were synthesized using a unique approach called microemulsion. SEM, TEM, EDX, and XRD techniques were employed to investigate the morphology and structures of the synthesized material. The Ni-NPs exhibited superior electrical conductivity and interconnected nanostructures, facilitating the transfer of electrons from electroactive components and providing numerous channels for ion diffusion and additional active sites. As a positive electrode for supercapacitors (SC), Ni-NPs showed excellent charge storage capability, with a dominant capacitive charge storage of 72.4% at 10 mV/s and a maximum capacitance of 730 F/g at 1 A/g. Furthermore, the Ni-NP electrode retained 92.4% of its capacitance even after 5000 cycles, suggesting potential applications in the field of renewable energy. This study presents a new method for producing high-rate next-generation electrodes for supercapacitors.

Summary: Establishing a platform with different nanostructured oxides is a novel idea for developing highly sensitive and selective sensing devices. The study successfully created 3D-heterostructures consisting of 1D nanowires of NiO and WO3, exhibiting selective behavior towards different gases. The improved sensing performance of the heterostructures is attributed to charge carrier transport through specific interfaces and modulation of charge carriers in the electron depletion layer of WO3 and hole accumulation layer of NiO and NiWO4.

Summary: A ternary nanocomposite of Ag-rGO@NiO was successfully fabricated as an electrode material for supercapacitor applications. The composite showed excellent capacitive performance with a high capacitive value of 1230 Fg-1, which was significantly higher than that of binary rGO@NiO (337.5 F g-1) and bare NiO flakes (145 F g-1) at a current density of 1 A g-1. The enhanced capacitive value was attributed to the highly conductive rGO sheets and Ag nanoparticles, where rGO provided a conductive path and Ag created new channels for electron transfer. The composite also exhibited excellent cyclic stability, retaining 88.5% of its initial capacitive value after 3000 cycles, and showed a high energy density of 27.33 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 200.073 W kg-1.

Summary: This research investigated the response of sensors based on nickel ferrite nanorods and nanoparticles in various conditions for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The results showed that both sensors had a high response to acetone. The nanoparticle-based sensor exhibited a higher response due to its lower bandgap, which increased the chemical reactivity. Additionally, the sensors demonstrated long-term chemical stability, repeatability, and easy fabrication process.

Summary: Amorphous carbon (a-C) film is an increasingly important material in technical and industrial applications due to its superlubricious properties. However, achieving superlubricity in a-C film requires the formation of specific nanostructures or components, making the preparation process difficult and complex. In this study, a simple and effective approach is proposed to achieve superlubricity by in-situ forming a graphitized structure on the a-C surface through fast annealing. The results show that the friction property is closely related to the graphitized degree of the mated a-C surfaces and a friction coefficient below 0.01 or even 0.001 can be obtained for highly graphitized systems. This approach also demonstrates excellent stability and reliability of superlubricious behavior, making it a promising method for industrial scale-up.

Summary: In this study, the friction behavior and the transformation of interfacial structure of textured a-C films with selective hydrogenated surfaces were systematically investigated using reactive molecular dynamics simulation. Results showed that introducing hydrogen atoms to the selective bump sites of textured a-C surfaces significantly reduced the friction coefficient, but its efficiency was closely related to the hydrogen content. Moreover, the separation and re-bonding of -CH clusters from the textured a-C surface during the sliding process played a key role in enhancing the repulsive effect between contacted a-C surfaces, thereby improving the anti-friction behavior.

Summary: In this study, the photocatalytic polymerization of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) was used to prepare photo-generated humins (L-H) for the first time. The introduction of HMF into low-molecular-weight humins (LMW-H) increased the molecular weight and furan ring content of L-H under visible light. Compared to humins prepared by the thermal-acid method (A-H), L-H had a lower molecular weight and exhibited great solubility and high chemical reactivity. The structure units of L-H and A-H were also different, with L-H containing 5-hydroxy-4-keto-pentenoic acid (HKPA) generated by reacting HMF with singlet-oxygen. The furan-based polymer DA-L-H obtained through the Diels-Alder (DA) reaction showed self-healing properties, with a recovery efficiency of 92.8%. The utilization of biomass waste humins allows for resource recycling and sustainable economic development.

Summary: Selective epoxidation and allylic oxidation of cyclohexene were achieved using BEA-Ti and (metallo)porphyrin catalysts. The combination of BEA-Ti and porphyrin H2MTPP resulted in high selectivity for cyclohexene oxide. BEA-Ti and metalloporphyrin MnMTPP yielded high selectivity for 2-cyclohexen-1-one. The oxidation process was promoted by active species involving (metallo)porphyrin, TiIV sites, and TBHP, and an improved outer-sphere effect on the surface of BEA-Ti framework contributed to enhanced conversion and selectivity in epoxidation and allylic oxidation.
