AbstractSolid‐state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) with poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO)‐based electrolytes have increasingly become one of the most promising battery technologies due to high energy density and safety. However, adverse electrode/electrolyte interface compatibility issues hinder further application. Herein, a PEO‐based composite solid electrolyte with excellent anode and cathode interfacial compatibility is designed via the coordination modulation strategy induced by lithium difluorobis(oxalato)phosphate (DFBOP). By utilizing this electrolyte, the robust inorganic‐rich interphase involving LiF, LixPOyFz, and P─O components is in situ generated on lithium (Li) anode and LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) cathode surfaces via forceful coordination among PEO, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide, and DFBOP and subsequent adjustment of front orbital energy levels. It contributes to homogeneous lithium deposition and an effective impediment of PEO oxidation decomposition at high voltage, promoting superior interfacial stability. Consequently, Li‐symmetric cells with modified electrolyte can achieve a stable cycle over 7000 h at 0.2 mA cm−2. Specially, the cathode electrolyte interphase with a unique organic–inorganic interpenetration network structure enables the 4.5 V Li/NCM811 cells to cycle steadily over 100 cycles, with a high discharge capacity of 215.4 mAh g−1 and initial coulombic efficiency of 91.23%. This research has shed light on the interfacial design of PEO‐based electrolytes from the perspective of electrolyte coordination regulation to construct high‐performance SSLMBs.

AbstractThe exploration of the non‐collinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase holds promise for the discovery of zero thermal expansion (ZTE) materials, which is of great significance to resist the temperature effect in aerospace and precision engineering fields. Currently, there is still a lack of effective approaches to regulate this special AFM phase. In this work, a non‐collinear AFM phase has been obtained in the anti‐perovskite compound Mn3Fe0.2Co0.2Ni0.2Mn0.2Cu0.2N proposed by high‐entropy engineering. Utilizing neutron powder diffraction (NPD) analysis, the magnetic structure is resolved to be a triangular AFM phase with a k = [0, 0, 0] and a ferromagnetic (FM) component located at the corner of the cubic structure, which belongs to the R‐3 space group. Particularly, it presents ZTE behavior in a wide temperature range from 10 to 180 K. In‐situ NPD analysis reveals that the negative thermal expansion attributed to magnetic evolution almost offsets the normal positive thermal expansion quantified by the Debye formula. Further first principles calculations reveal that the specific AFM phase derives from the AFM‐type nearest neighboring magnetic exchange interactions and the easy‐axis‐type magnetic anisotropy. This demonstration offers an efficient strategy for designing magnetic structures and achieving ZTE over a wide temperature range.

AbstractDual‐metal atom nanozymes (DANs) are frontier nanocatalysts that mimic natural enzymes to regulate the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in pathological tissue. However, the construction of DANs is mostly based on trial‐and‐error strategy rather than rational design due to their ambiguous catalytic mechanism. Herein, a promising strategy to construct highly efficient FeZn‐NC DANs by “electron‐deficient effect” for ROS scavenging is proposed. Redox‐inert Zn‐N4 sites and axial N atom induce electron‐deficient Fe sites based on different electronegativity to accelerate catalase (CAT)‐like reaction. Besides, FeZn‐NC mimics superoxide dismutase (SOD) relying on the cyano‐group conjugated with the π‐system in the carbon carrier. Enhanced CAT‐like activity from Fe sites and SOD‐like activity from carbon carriers enabled FeZn‐NC more effective in mitigating cellular damage and inducing the phenotypic transformation of macrophages in acute inflammatory wounds. This work establishes more precise structure‐activity relationships for CAT and SOD mimics and provides a paradigm for the treatment of inflammation‐related diseases by catalytic therapy.

AbstractMaterials made from bile acids can benefit from the excellent biocompatibility and rigid skeleton of these natural compounds. To address concerns of the biocompatibility of shape‐memory polymers (SMPs) in biomedical applications, a series of polyurethanes (PUs) is developed using bile acid as the hard segment and oligo(ethylene glycol) as the soft segment through a one‐pot polymerization. These polymers can be easily processed into skin‐like fibers, tubes, strips, etc., with tunable mechanical properties, e.g., elongation at break (483%) and high tensile strength (40.9 MPa). Their glass transition temperatures spread across a wide range, enabling them to exhibit dual, triple, and quadruple shape memory effects (SMEs). Due to intermolecular interactions, these PUs display a maximum self‐healing efficiency of 96% in tensile strength for 1.5 h. In vitro cytotoxicity tests, hemolysis evaluations and healing efficiency in vivo all indicate their good biocompatibility and biosafety. These bio‐derived PUs offer an option of shape memory polymers easy to make, with good tissue compatibility for applications as surgical sutures, artificial muscles, and soft materials.

AbstractOne of the necessary conditions for achieving high thermoelectric (TE) performance is the large longitudinal (Sxx) and transverse thermopower (Syx), which are closely related to the Fermi level position and the energy‐dependent density of states (DOS) at the Fermi level. Herein, it is demonstrated that HfTe5 has both high‐mobility induced significant quantum oscillations with an ultra‐low quantum limit of 2.7 T, and a significant Lifshitz transition where the Fermi level shows strong temperature dependence. The Landau levels yielded by the magnetic field distort the DOS with many equally‐spaced delta functions and significantly enhance the Sxx and Syx. The drastically enhanced magneto‐longitudinal and transverse TE performance in HfTe5 is achieved under an ultra‐low magnetic field of 1.4 T, which can be easily realized by a permanent magnet. Moreover, the Lifshitz transition further modulates its TE and magneto‐TE performance. Ultimately, the peak values of magneto‐longitudinal and transverse power factors (PF) reach 64 µW cm−1 K−2 at 150 K and 0.9 T and 19 µW cm−1 K−2 at 80 K and 1.4 T, respectively, which are comparable to the best TE materials such as Bi2Te3. This work provides novel methods and significant guidance for the development of TE and magneto‐TE materials.

AbstractDiversified crop rotations with no‐till management are considered fundamental to sustainable agroecosystems; however, associated uncertainty in economic returns may hinder farmers’ decisions to adopt these practices. The objectives of this study were to compare economic performance (gross revenue, net revenue, and production cost) among various low‐input diversified versus conventional crop rotations. The experiment was initiated in the fall of 2000 with winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) planting and planting of remaining crops in the spring of 2001 near Brookings, SD. Economic analysis was performed from data collected during the fifth complete 4‐year crop rotational cycle (2017–2020) of six crop rotations: (1) 4‐year corn (Zea mays L.)‐soybean [Glycine max L. (Merr.)]‐spring wheat‐sunflower (Helianthus annus L.) (CSSwSf), (2) 4 year corn‐soybean‐spring wheat‐pea (Pisum sativum L.) (CSSwP), (3) 4‐year corn‐pea‐winter wheat‐soybean (CPWwS), (4) 4‐year corn‐oat (Avena sativa L.)‐winter wheat‐soybean (COWwS), (5) 2‐year corn‐soybean (CS), and (6) continuous corn (CCC, treatment initiated in 2017). Corn yield in CSSwP rotation, where corn followed peas, was higher (p < 0.05) by 20%, 25%, 45%, and 89%, compared to CPWwS, CSSwSf, CS, and CCC rotations, respectively. Similarly, soybean yield following winter wheat was significantly higher by 16%–38% in COWwS and 13%–38% in CPWwS compared to CSSwP, CSSwSf, and CS. Overall, diversified crop rotations improved both corn and soybean yield and net revenue compared to 2‐year CS and monoculture CCC rotations. Moreover, 4‐year diversified systems, specifically COWwS, CPWwS, and CSSwP, demonstrated economic resilience by maintaining stable production costs.

AbstractPasture systems that include cool‐ and warm‐season species have the potential to enhance tall fescue (TF) [Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort.] forage systems beyond their typical season. The objectives of this study were to incorporate crabgrass (Digitaria ciliaris Retz.) into TF swards and compare the production of monoculture TF to a binary mixture of crabgrass and TF as well as its effect with different sources of nitrogen (such as red clover [Trifolium pratense L.] or sunn hemp [Crotalaria juncea L.]). The experiment was conducted in Crossville, TN, in 2020 and 2021. The treatments were as follows: (1) TF + 0 N (T), (2) TF + ammonium nitrate (TA), (3) TF + red clover (TR), (4) TF + sunn hemp (TS), (5) TF + crabgrass + 0 N (TFC), (6) TF + crabgrass + ammonium nitrate (TCA), (7) TF + crabgrass + red clover (TCR), and (8) TF + crabgrass + sunn hemp (TCS). The plots containing red clover indicated a greater herbage mass (HM) and crude protein (CP) along with lesser neutral detergent fiber compared to the other treatments. Sunn hemp performed best during the mid‐summer, contributing to the increase of HM. Tall fescue swards that were mixed with crabgrass and a source of N (legumes or N fertilizer) had greater HM during the warm season, having the potential to decrease the stationarity of production. Thus, including crabgrass, red clover, and sunn hemp (grass and legumes, respectively) in TF pasture can be a great strategy to increase HM and improve nutritive value.

Published: September 2024

AbstractA rationally designed dual‐purpose non‐canonical amino acid (Trz) has been synthesised and successfully incorporated into a protein scaffold by genetic code expansion. Trz contains a 5‐pyridyl‐1,2,4‐triazine system, which allows for inverse‐electron‐demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) reactions to occur on the triazine ring and for metal ions to be chelated both before and after the click reaction. Trz was successfully incorporated into a protein scaffold and the IEDDA utility of Trz demonstrated through the site‐specific labelling of the purified protein with a bicyclononyne. Additionally, Trz was shown to successfully coordinate a cyclometallated iridium(III) centre, providing access to a bioorthogonal luminogenic probe. The luminescent properties of the Ir(III)‐bound protein blue‐shift upon IEDDA click reaction with bicyclononyne, providing a unique method for monitoring the extent and location of the labelling reaction. In summary, Trz is a new dual‐purpose non‐canonical amino acid with great potential for myriad bioapplications where metal‐based functionality is required, for example in imaging, catalysis, and photo‐dynamic therapy, in conjunction with a bioorthogonal reactive handle to impart additional functionalities, such as dual‐modality imaging or therapeutic payloads.
Cu(I)‐Induced ‘Click Reaction’ Involving Coordination and Covalent Assembly of Hybrid Borates for the Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe design and synthesis of hybrid borates by the organic ligand modification method are urgent and undeveloped areas of research. It is difficult to directly integrate organoboronic acids within inorganic borate chemistry by adopting the traditional preparation approaches. This work reports a facile synthetic method to synthesize a large family of pyrazole molecule‐protected borates in a rapid and precise manner under mild conditions. A unique cyclic eight‐membered B4O4‐ring has been identified as the cluster core for all these hybrid borates with two different conformations (boat and crown). This strategy can be applied to a system of pyrazolyl molecules to generate such hybrid borates in two independent routes from organoboronic or inorganic boric acids. Furtherly, the mechanism of ‘click reaction’ between boric acid and pyrazole induced by copper ions has been proposed based on the synthetic conditions and the structure of intermediate. Due to the bimetallic Cu sites and the functional surfaces, these materials can be used as electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction reaction and efficiently enhance the selectivity of HCOOH and C2H4. Our strategy can be regarded as a typical template technique for organic molecule‐protected borates.

AbstractThe objective of this article is to evaluate the salivary levels of tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α), interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ), interleukin‐2 (IL‐2), and IL‐10 in patients with active psoriasis and compare them with those in healthy control subjects. This study included 60 subjects who were clinically diagnosed cases with active psoriasis (categorized further into 33 mild to moderate and 27 severe cases based on the Psoriasis Area Severity Index score) and 60 age‐ and gender‐matched healthy control subjects. Levels of TNF‐α, IFN‐γ, IL‐2, and IL‐10 in the unstimulated saliva of subjects were determined via enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (BT Lab). The salivary levels of TNF‐α, IFN‐γ, and IL‐2 were significantly higher, whereas IL‐10 concentration was significantly reduced in psoriatic patients in comparison to controls, and the difference increased with the progressing severity of the disease. Assessment of cytokine profiles in psoriasis patients is significant for diagnostic validation and monitoring the disease severity. Saliva offers an alternate, noninvasive, and readily available biological sample for evaluating cytokine levels. Extensive research in this field has been recommended for better scientifically proven conclusions.

Published: September 2024

ABSTRACTThis paper examines the impact of different type external matching networks on the discharge characteristics of dual‐frequency capacitively coupled plasma. A nonlinear global model is employed to analyze the discharge of dual‐frequency capacitively coupled argon plasma, with a low frequency of 8 MHz and 60 W and a high frequency of 100 MHz at 10–80 W. Discharge voltage waveforms, current waveforms, and emission spectra of the plasma were measured, while electron density and electron temperature were determined using the Boltzmann method. The electron density and electron temperature are utilized as input parameters for the nonlinear global model, while the plasma discharge is simulated with a fixed low‐frequency radio frequency (RF) source power (60 W) and a varied high‐frequency RF source power ranging from 10 to 80 W. The results indicate that the plasma discharge current, sheath capacitance, plasma resistance, plasma inductance, and the ratio of stochastic heating to Ohmic heating increase, while the sheath thickness decreases with increasing power. It is also found that the fundamental frequency current as well as 12th and 13th harmonic currents in the plasma are caused by the matching network and the nonlinear interaction between the sheath and the plasma. An optimal matching network can be designed to eliminate the effects of the harmonics and to meet industrial requirements for discharge uniformity.
Turbulence effects in the topology optimization of compressible subsonic flow
Authors: Garcia‐Rodriguez Luis Fernando , Alonso Diego Hayashi , Silva Emilio Carlos Nelli 
Published: September 2024

AbstractTurbulence significantly influences fluid flow topology optimization, and this has already been verified under the incompressible flow regime. However, the same cannot be said about the compressible flow regime, in which the density field now affects and couples all of the fluid flow and turbulence equations and makes obtaining the adjoint model, which is necessary for topology optimization, extremely difficult. Up to now, the turbulence phenomenon has still not been considered in compressible flow topology optimization, which is what is being proposed and analyzed here. Rather than being based in the Reynolds‐Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations which are defined only for incompressible flow, the equations are now based on the Favre‐Averaged Navier–Stokes (FANS) equations, which are the counterpart of the RANS equations for compressible flow and feature different dependencies and terms. The compressible turbulence model being considered is the compressible version of the Spalart–Allmaras model, which differs from the usual Spalart–Allmaras model, since now there are some new spatially varying density and specific heat terms that depend on the primal variables and that act over some of the turbulence terms of the overall model. The adjoint equations are obtained by using an automatic differentiation scheme through a coupled software platform. The optimization algorithm is IPOPT, and some examples are presented to show the effect of turbulence in the compressible flow topology optimization.

AbstractFive Australian seaweed species, Phyllosphora comosa, Ecklonia radiata, Durvillaea potatorum, Sargassum fallax, and Cystophora siliquosa, thrive along the country's shorelines. Some of these seaweeds have recognized health benefits but have not been fully investigated in terms of their bioactive components and mechanisms of action. We employed ultrasonication with 70% methanol to extract phenolic compounds from these seaweeds and investigated a range of bioactivities for these extracts, including anti‐inflammatory activity exploring urease inhibition, nitric oxide scavenging activity, protein denaturation inhibition, and protease inhibition. Anti‐diabetic activities were investigated using α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase inhibition assays. Anti‐proliferative and anti‐mitotic activities were evaluated using yeast‐cell and green‐gram models, respectively. Our findings showed that C. siliquosa inhibited nitric oxide, urease, and protease activities, with S. fallax, P. comosa, and E. radiata exhibiting substantial inhibition of protein denaturation. E. radiata displayed inhibitory effects on both α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase, whereas P. comosa targeted only the α‐glucosidase enzyme, indicating different mechanisms of anti‐diabetic activity. In these anti‐mitotic assays, C. siliquosa exhibited low cell viability and a significant anti‐proliferative effect, particularly within 24 h, while E. radiata demonstrated notable inhibition at 48 h. LC‐ESI‐QTOF‐MS/MS investigation identified 48 phenolic compounds, including 19 phenolic acids, 20 flavonoids, and 9 other polyphenols. The presence of these compounds in extracts correlated with observed biological activities. These results support the potential health benefits of these seaweeds and link this activity to the presence of bioactive phenolics.
