Abstract In this work, Ag or/and Cu doped BiVO 4 samples has been prepared successfully via hydrothermal and photoreduction method. Ag/Cu co-doped BiVO 4 exhibited high photocatalytic degradation efficiency in the degradation of methylene blue (MB) and displayed a significantly superior property compared to pure BiVO 4, as well as only Ag or Cu doped BiVO 4 upon exposure to visible light source. Interestingly, we found that enhanced photocatalytic activity of Ag/Cu co-doped BiVO 4 arises from the synergistic effect between the Ag and Cu co-doped BiVO 4 with smaller crystalline size, improved photocatalytic reaction sites, improved life-time and enhanced separation of photogenerated charge carriers which are confirmed using different characterization techniques. The degradation of MB was mainly indicated by superoxide radical species as confirmed by the trapping experiment. Based on the collective results obtained an excellent photocatalytic activity in Ag/Cu co-doped BiVO 4 has been confirmed.

A high-performance Pt catalyst supported on SBA-15 was developed for furfural decarbonylation. Compared to Pt catalysts loaded on microporous DeAl-Hbeta zeolite and hierarchical micro-mesoporous MFI nanosheet (NS) materials, the 1%Pt/SBA-15 catalyst afforded notably higher activity, furan selectivity and stability owing to the negligible acid sites and proper mesopores on the SBA-15 support. Among a set of 1%Pt/SBA-15 catalysts bearing Pt nanoparticles (NPs) with sizes of 2.4–4.3 nm, the catalyst with 3.7 nm Pt NPs afforded the highest furan selectivity. Over the optimal catalyst, 88.6% furan selectivity and ca. 90% furfural conversion were obtained at 573 K and a high weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 16.5 h−1. Moreover, the reaction temperatures at 440–573 K and the ratios of H2 to furfural at 0.79–9.44 did not affect the reaction selectivity notably, showing that the reaction over 1%Pt/SBA-15 can be conducted over a wide range of conditions. The catalyst was stable under the harsh reaction conditions and lasted for 90 h without significant deactivation, demonstrating the superior property of SBA-15 as a catalyst support for furfural decarbonylation.

SnSe2 and SnSe nanocrystals were prepared using a simple solvothermal method by changing the molar ratio of SnCl[Formula: see text]2H2O and Se powder. When SnSe2 and SnSe are acted as lithium ion battery anodes, the SnSe hybrid structure shows more excellent electrochemical performance than that of SnSe2 interconnected nanosheet. It delivers a reversible capacity of 1023[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at a current density of 200[Formula: see text]mA[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text], and maintaining a capacity of 498[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] till 120 cycles. According to many present works, SnSe2 with interconnected thin nanosheet should possess more superior property than hybrid structured SnSe due to short charge transfer paths. However, in our research, the result is the opposite. Therefore, we consider that the superior electrochemical performance of SnSe is attributed to its highly reversible conversion reaction mechanism than SnSe2.

Magnesium nanocomposites, with nano-scale ceramic reinforcements, have attracted a great deal of attention for several engineering and biomedical applications in the recent past. In this work, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, Fe3O4, with their unique magnetic properties and the ability of being bio-compatible and non-toxic, are reinforced to magnesium to form Mg/(1, 2, and 3 wt %) Fe3O4 nanocomposites. These nanocomposites were fabricated using the conventional disintegrated melt deposition (DMD) technique followed by extrusion. Further, the materials were also processed using the novel turning-induced-deformation technique where the chips from turning process are collected, cold compacted, and hot extruded. The materials processed via the two techniques were compared in terms of microstructure and properties. Overall, the Mg/Fe3O4 nanocomposites, processed via both routes, exhibited a superior property profile. Further, the turning-induced deformation method showed promising results in terms of improved properties of the nanocomposites and serves as a great route for the recycling of metallic materials.

The amorphous Ni-Pd-P alloy films with superior property have good heat conductivity and wear performance. They are widely used in the protecting coating. Copper has been chosen to be a substrate material of the produce of amorphous Ni-Pd-P alloy films with its unique electrical properties. The precision lapping technology for the copper substrate using semi-bonded abrasive grinding plate is studied in this paper. The influences of the different lapping parameters on the surface roughness, material removal rate on copper substrate surface formation in the precision lapping process are both discussed. Experimental results indicate that the copper substrate can be efficiently processed by 800# SiC semi-bonded abrasive grinding plate of, and the initial roughness of a machined surface could be improved from 0.553μm Ra to 0.28μm in 10min, yielding a ideal rarely scratch surface.

Inversion boundaries (IBs) of a head-to-head or (0001)|(0001) (C+|C+) configuration bisect virtually every grain in typical commercial ZnO varistor ceramics. They are most often considered electrically inactive, and the effect on the grain growth behavior has been recently addressed. In this work, various configurations of ZnO bicrystals were prepared using different source crystals and strong barrier effects were observed in some (0001)|(0001) (C−|C−) bicrystals using crystals with higher impurity contents. The crystallographic polarity and impurity effects were systematically examined by doping C+|C+ and C−|C− bicrystals with single and double additives of Mn, Co, Ni, and Bi. Varying degrees of barrier effects including varistor-like behaviors were observed in C−|C− bicrystals depending on dopants, while C+|C+ bicrystals consistently exhibited negligible effects. Because the IBs in ZnO varistor ceramics preferentially expose C− surfaces in the grain boundaries, the superior property of commercial ZnO varistor ceramics is suggested to be assisted by the presence of IBs.

ABSTRACTYBCO films on LaAlO3and IBAD (YSZ/Hastelloy) substrate were made by TFA-MOD (metalorganic deposition using trifluoroacetate) process. Improved coating solution resulted in high Jc at 77.3K and 0T of 7 MA/cm2 and 1.7 MA/cm2 for LaAlO3 and IBAD substrates, respectively. The magnetic field dependence of Jc at 77.3K also showed superior property: 105 A/cm2 at 4T (B//c-axis) for the LaAlO3substrate and at 3T (B//c-axis)) for IBAD substrate. Furthermore, the difference in Jc between single crystal LaAlO3and IBAD was small up to 3T. The present results imply that TFA-MOD process is promising for the practical YBCO coated conductor process.
