Abstract Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) mycelia extract via the hydrothermal method. The main reducing and stabilizing groups and components of A. fumigatus extract, such as amine, hydroxyl, amid, protein, enzymes, and cell saccharide compounds, were identified by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). Central composition design was used to plan the experiments, and response surface methodology was applied to evaluate of the effects of independent variables, including the amount of the prepared extract (5–7 ml) and heating time (10–20 min) at 121°C and 1.5 bar), on the particle size of the synthesized AgNPs, as manifested in broad emission peak (λmax). More stable and spherical monodispersed AgNPs, with mean particle size, polydispersity index (PDI) value, and maximum ζ potential value of 23 nm, 0.270, and +35.3 mV, respectively, were obtained at the optimal synthesis conditions using 7 ml of A. fumigatus extract and heating time of 20 min. The synthesized AgNPs indicated high antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

High theoretical capacity and low-cost copper sulfide (CuxS)-based anodes have gained great attention for advanced sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, their practical application may be hindered due to their unstable cycling performance and problems with the dissolution of sodium sulfides (NaxS) into electrolyte. Here, we employed metal organic framework (MOF-199) as a sacrificial template to fabricate nanoporous CuxS with a large surface area embedded in the MOF-derived carbon network (CuxS-C) through a two-step process of sulfurization and carbonization via H2S gas-assisted plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) processing. Subsequently, we uniformly coated a nanocarbon layer on the Cu1.8S-C through hydrothermal and subsequent annealing processes. The physico-chemical properties of the nanocarbon layer were revealed by the analytical techniques of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We acquired a higher SIB performance (capacity retention (~93%) with a specific capacity of 372 mAh/g over 110 cycles) of the nanoporous Cu1.8S-C/C core/shell anode materials than that of pure Cu1.8S-C. This encouraging SIB performance is attributed to the key roles of a nanocarbon layer coated on the Cu1.8S-C to accommodate the volume variation of the Cu1.8S-C anode structure during cycling, enhance electrical conductivity and prevent the dissolution of NaxS into the electrolyte. With these physico-chemical and electrochemical properties, we ensure that the Cu1.8S-C/C structure will be a promising anode material for large-scale and advanced SIBs.

Aim and Objective: Metal-organic network (MON) is a special class of molecular compounds comprising of groups or metal ion and carbon-based ligand. These chemical compounds are examined employing one, two- or threedimensional formation of porous ore and subfamilies of polymers. Metal-organic networks are frequently utilized in catalysis for the parting & distillation of different gases and by means of conducting solid or super-capacitor. In various scenarios, the compounds are observed balanced in the procedure of deletion or diluter of the molecule and can be rebuilt with another molecular compound. The physical solidity and mechanical characteristics of the metal-organic network have attained great attention due to the mention properties. This study was undertaken to find the polynomials of MON. Methods: Topological descriptor is a numerical number that is utilized to predict the natural correlation amongst the physico-chemical properties of the molecular structures in their elementary networks. Results: After partitioning the vertices based on their degrees, we calculate different degree-based topological polynomials for two distinct metal-organic networks with an escalating number of layers containing both metals and carbon-based ligand vertices. Conclusion: In the analysis of the metal-organic network, topological descriptors and their polynomials play an important part in modern chemistry. An analysis between the calculated various forms of the polynomials and topological descriptors through the numeric values and their graphs is also comprised.
