Dual‐Phase Single‐Ion Pathway Interfaces for Robust Lithium Metal in Working Batteries

The lithium (Li) metal anode is confronted by severe interfacial issues that strongly hinder its practical deployment. The unstable interfaces directly induce unfavorable low cycling efficiency, dendritic Li deposition, and even strong safety concerns. An advanced artificial protective layer with single‐ion pathways holds great promise for enabling a spatially homogeneous ionic and electric field distribution over Li metal surface, therefore well protecting the Li metal anode during long‐term working conditions. Herein, a robust dual‐phase artificial interface is constructed, where not only the single‐ion‐conducting nature, but also high mechanical rigidity and considerable deformability can be fulfilled simultaneously by the rational integration of a garnet Al‐doped Li_6.75La₃Zr_1.75Ta_0.25O₁₂‐based bottom layer and a lithiated Nafion top layer. The as‐constructed artificial solid electrolyte interphase is demonstrated to significantly stabilize the repeated cell charging/discharging process via regulating a facile Li‐ion transport and a compact Li plating behavior, hence contributing to a higher coulombic efficiency and a considerably enhanced cyclability of lithium metal batteries. This work highlights the significance of rational manipulation of the interfacial properties of a working Li metal anode and affords fresh insights into achieving dendrite‐free Li deposition behavior in a working battery.     

Effect of solution concentration on surface morphology and photocatalytic activity of ZnO thin films synthesized by hydrothermal methods

ZnO thin films were synthesized via hydrothermal method on silicon substrate at various solution concentrations. The thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscope and UV–Vis spectrophotometer. The results show that the thin films are polycrystalline with wurtzite hexagonal structure. The T _c values of (101) surface of the thin film increase from 0.929 to 1.840 at first, and then decrease to 0.779 with increasing solution concentration. The preferential orientation along the (101) crystal surface can be controlled by changing the solution concentration. Solution concentration has a significant effect on surface morphology of the thin films. The optical band gap of the thin films decreases, when the solution concentration of zinc nitrate hexahydrate increases from 0.01 to 0.06 mol/L and then increases when the solution concentration of zinc nitrate hexahydrate further increases to 0.08 mol/L. Photocatalytic activity of the thin films on degradation of methyl orange under UV light irradiation was studied in detail. The ZnO thin film with many cracks prepared from 0.01 mol/L shows the higher photocatalytic activity but the tower-like ZnO thin film prepared from 0.08 mol/L reveals the lower photocatalytic activity. Therefore, the photocatalytic activity of the thin films are mainly relate to surface morphology and crystallographic orientation.     

Temperature-dependent material properties of the components of magnetorheological fluids

Material properties of the components of magnetorheological (MR) fluids are critical to their control accuracy and service life. The aim of this study was to reveal the effects of temperature on the material properties of MR fluid components. In this paper, a detailed introduction to the components of MR fluids, including main performance indicators and commonly used materials, was presented at first. Then, theoretical analysis and experimental investigation were performed on the temperature-dependent material properties of MR fluid components. These material properties included the magnetization properties of the magnetic particle, as well as the shear viscosity and thermal expansion of the carrier fluid. Experimental results indicated that both the mass magnetization and coercivity of MR particles decreased as the temperature increased and the phenomenon was particularly obvious at high temperatures. Moreover, an increasing temperature could lead to a severe decrease of the shear viscosity and a relatively large thermal expansion of the carrier fluid. Research results from this study may serve to provide a theoretical and an experimental basis for the preparation of MR fluids with high thermal stability.

表面活性剂改性磁性氧化石墨烯共价固定脂肪酶CRL

采用化学共沉淀法制备磁性氧化石墨烯（MGO）,直接在反应体系中加入Span系列表面活性剂,一锅法制备得到表面活性剂改性磁性氧化石墨烯（SMGO）。X射线衍射仪（XRD）、扫描电镜（SEM）和傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）表征结果表明SMGO制备成功,且具有良好的磁分离性能。以1,5-戊二醛（GA）为交联剂,褶皱假丝酵母脂肪酶（CRL）为模型酶,共价固定CRL于SMGO载体上。Span40 MGO固定化酶酶活回收率为116.5%±1.7%,为MGO固定化酶的6倍;比活可达32.5U/mg,为游离酶的1.6倍;k_cat/K_m也有较大的提升,高于游离酶50%。储存稳定性及热稳定性得到提高,用于水解反应6批次后仍然保留73.6%的相对酶活力。初步分析认为MGO经改性后表面从亲水性转为强疏水性,使得共价固定化过程中同时发生疏水性界面活化,这是酶活性提高的原因之一。文章所报道的改性策略可为类似载体改性提供新思路。

Determination of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate by Means of Photometric Titration with o‐Toluidine Blue Dye

A convenient technique for the determination of sodium dodecyl sulfate is titration with a metachromatic dye using in situ absorbance measurements. A suitable color reagent is ortho‐Toluidine Blue dye. Commercially available immersion optical probe Optrode® possesses a working wavelength of 640 nm, well matching the dye spectrum. The surfactant concentration is linearly related to the titrant volume at a certain solution absorbance. Optimal values of end point absorbance fall in the range from 0.7 to 2. The lower limit of quantitation is equal to 29 mg L^?1. The highest concentration determined in this study was 52 g L^?1. The required determination range may be adjusted by the appropriate selection of analyte volume and titrant concentration. The developed method is intended for routine process control in the surfactant industry. This method needs minimal manual efforts due to the lack of the dilution stage. Application of an automatic titrator looks to be a suitable solution for any industrial lab.
