Transition metal selenides (TMSs), as promising anode materials for sodium ion batteries (SIBs), still face sluggish Na+ diffusion kinetics and severe volume change, resulting in undesirable cycling stability and rate capability. Heterostructure construction is an effective method to improve sodium ion storage in TMSs. Herein, a hierarchical hollow heterostructure of CoSe2@SnSe is precisely designed through a facile coprecipitation process followed by a selenization strategy. The heterostructure constructed by CoSe2 and SnSe nanocrystals induces the formation of built-in electric fields and accelerates electron transfer and ion diffusion, thereby improving reaction kinetics significantly. When the as-prepared CoSe2@SnSe composites are employed as anode materials of SIBs, there exhibit ultra-fast electrochemical reaction kinetics and outstanding cycling stability with a high capacity retention of 488.9 mAh g-1 at a current density of 2.0 A g-1 after 900 cycles. In addition, there still shows an exceptional rate capability of 409.5 mAh g-1 at a high current density of 10 A g-1. This work provides an effective method for the rational designing of heterostructure anode materials for high-performance SIBs.

The heterogeneous Fenton oxidation is regarded as a promising technology for refractory organic pollutants removal relying on highly active & BULL;OH generated via the decomposition of H2O2 catalyzed by iron-based catalyst that overcomes the issues of pH limitation and iron sludge discharge encountered in conventional Fenton reaction. However, the efficiency of & BULL;OH production in heterogeneous Fenton remains low as the limited mass transfer between H2O2 and catalysts caused by the poor H2O2 adsorption. Here, a nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NPC) catalyst with tunable N configuration was prepared for electrochemical-activation of H2O2 to & BULL;OH by enhancing the H2O2 adsorption on catalysts. The resultant & BULL;OH production yield on NPC reached 0.83 mM in 120 min. Notably, the NPC catalyst could be more energy-efficient for actual coking wastewater treatment with an energy consumption of 10.3 kWh kgCOD 1 than other electro-Fenton catalysts reported (20-29.7 kWh kgCOD 1 ). Density function theory (DFT) revealed that highly efficient & BULL;OH production was ascribed to the graphitic N which enhances the adsorption energy of H2O2 on NPC catalyst. This study provides new insight into the fabrication of efficient carbonaceous catalysts by rationally modulating electronic structures for refractory organic pollutants degradation.

While taking fundamental chemistry experiments courses, students may easily lose their interest owing to their limited understanding of related chemical principles.Many of these principles involve microscopic concepts and quantities hard to determine and describe, such as the interaction among matters, state of electrons in matters, the interactions between light and electricity with molecules.Results from theoretical chemistry investigations are capable to bridge this gap and present these quantities and concepts more vivid for students to understand the principles easily.Considering the separation of alcohols by gas chromatography as an example, we attempted to combine theoretical chemistry investigations with fundamental chemistry experiments to help students rationalize the chromatography theory with experimental and theoretical results.In addition to conventional experiments, students investigated the alcohols-adsorbents interactions theoretically and analyzed the results.This approach not only successfully stimulated students to learn and understand chemical principles more comprehensively, cultivated their problem identification and resolution abilities, but also promoted the teaching quality, thus benefiting the cultivation of top innovative talents in chemistry.

: Methanol, a basic chemical raw material, is a common solvent in production and one of the common fuels of alcohol fuel cells. However, it is volatile and can cause toxicity to the human nervous system. Therefore, real-time monitoring of the concentration of methanol vapor in the environment is of great significance. In this paper, a comprehensive experiment “a wearable intelligent high selectivity gas-liquid bifunctional methanol electrochemical sensor” was designed on the basis of scientific research achievements. The experiment includes inorganic material synthesis, screen printing preparation, instrumental analysis and characterization, electrochemical sensing and detection, covering the main related knowledge points of several chemistry courses, thus is very comprehensive and cutting-edge. Through this experiment, students can not only consolidate the basic knowledge of chemistry, master the synthesis and characterization skills of graphene materials, but also understand the working principle of electrochemical sensors, which greatly stimulate students’ interests in scientific research.
The non-solvent induced phase separation method is utilized to produce a free-standing electrode with good conductivity retention during 1000 bending/stretching cycles. The as-prepared electrode has been fabricated for an integrated device consisting of an ethanol fuel cell, a supercapacitor and a motion sensor. This method for fabricating free-standing electronics reveals a cost-effective approach towards wearable devices.
Unhealthy alcohol inhalation is among the top 10 causes of preventable death. However, the present alcohol sensors show poor selectivity among alcohol homologues. Herein, Pt-coated truncated octahedron Au (Ptm@Auto) as the electrocatalyst for a highly selective electrochemical sensor toward alcohol homologues has been designed. The alcohol sensor is realized by distinguishing the electro-oxidation behavior of methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH), or isopropanol (2-propanol). Intermediates from alcohols are further oxidized to CO2 by Ptm@Auto, resulting in different oxidation peaks in cyclic voltammograms and successful distinction of alcohols. Ptm@Auto is then modified on wearable glove-based sensors for monitoring actual alcohol samples (MeOH fuel, vodka, and 2-propanol hand sanitizer), with good mechanical performance and repeatability. The exploration of the Ptm@Auto-based wearable alcohol sensor is expected to be suitable for environmental measurement with high selectivity for alcohol homologues or volatile organic compounds.
The charge transfer is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature, and the physicochemical properties of the materials change due to the change of electronic configurations during the charge-transfer process.Charge transfer complexes with tunable properties actuated by external stimuli have potential applications in the fields of smart responsive materials and molecular sensing.In this paper, a novel comprehensive experiment is designed based on scientific research achievements: the preparation and properties of smart molecular materials with reversible thermalinduced charge-transfer effect.The experiment includes synthesis of metal-organic complexes, preparation of thin-film materials, instrumental analysis of the materials and research on thermochromic effect of materials, in which the main relevant knowledge points of most chemistry courses could be covered.The experiment is comprehensive and presents frontiers of disciplines.Through this experiment, students can not only consolidate the basic knowledge of relevant chemical theory including mastering the synthesis and characterization of metal-organic complexes and understanding the response mechanism of thermal sensor devices, but also can be attracted by the scientific research, and their scientific literacy can be improved.
Self-powered sensors have attracted great attention in the field of analysis owing to the necessity of power resources for the routine use of sensor devices. However, it is still challenging to construct wearable self-powered sensors in a simple and efficient way. Herein, wearable self-powered textile smart sensors based on advanced bifunctional polyaniline/reduced graphene oxide (PANI/RGO) films have been successfully developed for remote real-time detection of vitamin C. Specifically, a pH-assisted oil/water (O/W) self-assembly strategy was proposed to boost the O/W self-assembled PANI/RGO films via proton regulation. The as-obtained PANI/RGO films could be directly loaded on the textile substrate, with good capacitive and biosensing performance due to the multifunctionality of PANI and RGO, respectively. Moreover, both wearable power supply devices and wearable biosensors based on PANI/RGO films possess good electrochemical performance, which paves the way for the actual application of self-powered nutrition monitoring. Significantly, obvious signals have been obtained in the detection of vitamin C beverages, exhibiting promising application values in daily nutrition track necessities. Prospectively, this study would provide an effective and simple strategy for integrating wearable self-powered sensors, and the developed smart sensing system is an ideal choice for the portable detection of nutrition.

Organic dyes and copper ions are the main industrial wastewater pollutants, which have potential threats to the environment and humans. Here, a novel β-cyclodextrin decorated reduced graphene oxide complex (rGO-β-CD) is synthesized by wet-chemical strategy. The characterization results confirm the successful synthesis of rGO-β-CD complex, which also exhibits high stability in polar solvent. In addition, the quantitative analysis reveals that rGO has excellent loading capacity for β-CD (up to 19 wt.%). Benefiting from the tightly stacked structure, the rejection rate of the rGO-β-CD membrane for rhodamine B (RhB), methyl orange (MO) and evans blue (EB) is nearly 100%. Furthermore, the membrane displays significantly lower copper ions permeation in mixed ion solutions, with a permeability of 0.05 mmol m -2 h -1 . Importantly, the membrane exhibits specific adsorption for copper ions, resulting in a Zn 2+ /Cu 2+ selectivity of 4.6. Based on the results, rGO-β-CD membrane was observed to be a promising material for wastewater treatment. This study provides a novel rGO-β-CD membrane to separate organic dyes and copper ions from wastewater.

As an essential electrolyte for the human body, the potassium ion (K+) plays many physiological roles in living cells, so the rapid and accurate determination of serum K+ is of great significance. In this work, we developed a solid-contact ion-selective electrode (SC-ISE) using MoS2/Fe3O4 composites as the ion-to-electron transducer to determine serum K+. The potential response measurement of MoS2/Fe3O4/K+-ISE shows a Nernst response by a slope of 55.2 ± 0.1 mV/decade and a low detection limit of 6.3 × 10−6 M. The proposed electrode exhibits outstanding resistance to the interference of O2, CO2, light, and water layer formation. Remarkably, it also presents a high performance in potential reproducibility and long-term stability.
