Novel Bi-Doped Amorphous SnOx Nanoshells for Efficient Electrochemical CO2 Reduction into Formate at Low Overpotentials

Engineering novel Sn-based bimetallic materials could provide intriguing catalytic properties to boost the electrochemical CO₂ reduction. Herein, the first synthesis of homogeneous Sn_1−xBi_x alloy nanoparticles (x up to 0.20) with native Bi-doped amorphous SnO_x shells for efficient CO₂ reduction is reported. The Bi-SnO_x nanoshells boost the production of formate with high Faradaic efficiencies (>90%) over a wide potential window (−0.67 to −0.92 V vs RHE) with low overpotentials, outperforming current tin oxide catalysts. The state-of-the-art Bi-SnO_x nanoshells derived from Sn_0.80Bi_0.20 alloy nanoparticles exhibit a great partial current density of 74.6 mA cm⁻² and high Faradaic efficiency of 95.8%. The detailed electrocatalytic analyses and corresponding density functional theory calculations simultaneously reveal that the incorporation of Bi atoms into Sn species facilitates formate production by suppressing the formation of H₂ and CO.

聚硅氧烷改性PBT的制备及其结构与性能研究

为了提高聚对苯二甲酸丁二醇酯(PBT)分子链段的柔顺性,选用聚硅氧烷(PDMS)对其改性。将PDMS母粒(PBT-b-PDMS)与PBT按一定质量配比进行熔融共混制得不同PDMS母粒含量的PBT-b-PDMS/PBT共混切片(简称共混切片),对共混切片的结构与性能进行了研究。结果表明:PDMS母粒中软链段PDMS质量分数约为50%,硬链段PBT质量分数约为50%;PDMS以微米级微球均匀分布于PBT连续相中形成海岛结构;PDMS母粒与PBT在共混改性过程中,不存在较强的分子作用力,两者为宏观上的相容, PDMS质量分数大于等于16%后相容性逐渐变差;随着PDMS的增加,共混切片的玻璃化转变温度逐渐降低,表面接触角先逐渐减小后增大;当PDMS添加质量分数小于16%时,共混切片的亲水性能较好。

Potential Anti-Cancer Activities and Mechanisms of Costunolide and Dehydrocostuslactone

Costunolide (CE) and dehydrocostuslactone (DE) are derived from many species of medicinal plants, such as Saussurea lappa Decne and Laurus nobilis L. They have been reported for their wide spectrum of biological effects, including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antiulcer, and anthelmintic activities. In recent years, they have caused extensive interest in researchers due to their potential anti-cancer activities for various types of cancer, and their anti-cancer mechanisms, including causing cell cycle arrest, inducing apoptosis and differentiation, promoting the aggregation of microtubule protein, inhibiting the activity of telomerase, inhibiting metastasis and invasion, reversing multidrug resistance, restraining angiogenesis has been studied. This review will summarize anti-cancer activities and associated molecular mechanisms of these two compounds for the purpose of promoting their research and application.
