Influence of aluminum phosphate on the tribocorrosion performance of chemically bonded phosphate ceramic coatings

In this study, chemically bonded phosphate ceramic coatings (CBPCCs) with different contents of aluminum phosphate (AP) are prepared on stainless steel (AISI 304L). Differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, contact angle test, and a tribocorrosion experiment are carried out to clarify the role of AP in the tribocorrosion performance of CBPCCs. The results show that, with the increase in the AP content, the enthalpy of curing increases because of the greater formation of the bonding phase AlPO₄. Both in static corrosion and in tribocorrosion, the corrosion current density of CBPCCs achieves the lowest value when the weight ratio of AP to polytetrafluoroethylene is about 0.78. Additionally, the influence mechanism of AP on tribocorrosion is clarified. AlPO₄ from the reaction between AP and Al₂O₃ has excellent mechanical properties and can enhance the wear resistance of CBPCCs by reducing the mechanical wear and the increased wear due to corrosion. The alumina particles wrapped by AlPO₄ can form a dense and smooth surface and change the direction of electrolyte propagation, which leads to the increase in the tribocorrosion resistance of CBPCCs.     

Flexible Osteogenic Glue as an All-In-One Solution to Assist Fracture Fixation and Healing

Osteogenic glue that reproduces the natural bone composition represents the final frontier of orthopedic adhesives with the potential to revolutionize surgical strategies against comminuted fractures. However, it is difficult to achieve an all-in-one formula, which could provide flexible and reliable adhesiveness while avoiding interfering with or even promoting the healing of glued fractures. Herein, an osteogenic glue characterized by inorganic-in-organic integration between amine-modified mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (AMBGN) and bioadhesive gelatin-dextran network (GelDex) is introduced as an all-in-one tool to flexibly adhere and splice bone fragments and subsequently guide fracture healing during degradation. Relying on such integration, a 4-fold improvement in cohesiveness is presented, followed by a nearly 5-fold enhancement in adhesive strength in ex vivo porcine bone samples. The reversible and re-adjustable adhesiveness also enables glue to effectively splice intricate fragments from highly comminuted fractures in the rabbit radius in an in vivo environment. Moreover, well-preserved organic–inorganic integrity during degradation of the glue guides sustained interfacial osteogenesis and achieve satisfying healing outcomes in glued fractures, as observed by the 2-fold improvement in biomechanical and radiological performance compared with commercially available cyanoacrylate adhesives. The current findings propose an all-in-one solution for the fixation of bone fragments during surgery.     

Techno-economic analysis of hydrogen energy for renewable energy power smoothing

With the increasing proportion of renewable energy (mainly wind power and photovoltaic) connected to the grid, the fluctuation of renewable energy power brings great challenges to the safe and reliable operation of power grid. As a clean, low-carbon secondary energy, hydrogen energy is applied in renewable energy (mainly wind power and photovoltaic) grid-connected power smoothing, which opens up a new way of coupling hydrogen storage energy with renewable energy. This paper focuses on the optimization of capacity of electrolyzers and fuel cells and the analysis of system economy in the process of power output smoothing of wind/photovoltaic coupled hydrogen energy grid-connected system. Based on the complementary characteristics of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and chemical reaction optimization algorithm (CROA), a particle swarm optimization-chemical reaction optimization algorithm (PSO-CROA) are proposed. Aiming at maximizing system profit, the capacity of electrolyzers and fuel cells are constrained by wind power fluctuation, and considering environmental benefits, government subsidies and time value of funds, the objective function and its constraints are established. According to the simulation analysis, by comparing the calculated results with PSO and CROA, it shows that PSO-CROA effectively evaluates the economy of the system, and optimizes the optimal capacity of the electrolyzers and fuel cells. The conclusion of this paper is of great significance for the application of hydrogen energy storage in the evaluation of power smoothness and economy of renewable energy grid connection and the calculation of economic allocation of hydrogen energy storage capacity.     

Improving tribocorrosion performance of chemically bonded ceramic phosphate coating reinforced by GO-ZnO

To enhance the tribocorrosion properties of chemically bonded phosphate ceramic coating (CBPCC), GO-ZnO was prepared and added into CBPCC. And the tribocorrosion behaviour of CBPCC was investigated. Results show that, with the introduction of GO-ZnO, the open circuit potential of CBPCC shifts in a positive direction and corrosion current density decreases. In addition, the total material loss, the total mechanical wear loss and the total electrochemical corrosion loss of CBPCC all decrease with the increase of GO-ZnO. The wear track of CBPCC after tribocorrosion without GO-ZnO is rough and porous, while the wear track becomes smooth and dense with the incorporation of GO-ZnO. The material in wear track is anchored by GO-ZnO due to the strong bond between GO-ZnO and CBPCC, which decreases the wear loss. Because of the extra force from the tribocorrosion experiment, the material anchored by GO-ZnO forms to a dense structure which prevents electrolyte diffusion into CBPCC. Moreover, GO-ZnO can block the electrolyte diffusion pathway and make it more tortuous. The resistance to the electrolyte diffusion decreases the corrosion current density and the increased wear loss due to electrochemical corrosion.

Comparison of four oxidants activated through tetraacetylethylenediamine for developing sustainable and rapid degradation of organic dye

Four common oxidants, including hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), sodium percarbonate (SPC), sodium perborate (SPB) and sodium persulphate (SPS), were activated with tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED) to degrade an azo dye, CI Reactive Red 195, in water, for building a novel and rapid oxidative system comprising the merits of cost‐effectiveness and high sustainability. Elevated temperature and high pH level enhanced the activation effect of TAED for accelerating dye degradation. Peracetic acids were confirmed to be the main oxidative species for dye degradation in four TAED/oxidant systems. Hydroxyl radicals and sulphate radicals were also involved in dye degradation in the TAED/SPS system, which showed a stronger oxidative capacity than the other three systems over a wide pH range. More importantly, the addition of inorganic salts or surfactants also favoured the dye degradation in TAED/oxidant systems. Although a slow mineralisation process of the dye was found when the TAED/SPC or SPS system was used, low‐toxic intermediates were detected after the degradation.
