RESUMO

Transition metal oxides, such as Co3O4, have attracted great attention for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high theoretical capacity and satisfactory chemical stability. However, the slow kinetics of Li-ion and electron transport as well as poor cycling stability still largely restrains their applications. Here, we report the rational design of well-defined mesoporous ultrathin Co3O4 nanosheet arrays (NSAs) by topological transformation of layered double hydroxides nanosheet arrays (NSAs), which demonstrate significantly enhanced performance as anode for LIBs. The as-obtained Co3O4 NSAs with suitable thickness and abundant mesopores show excellent electrochemistry performance for LIBs, giving a high specific charge capacity of 2019.6 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, a good rate capability, and a remarkable cycling stability (1576.9 mAh g-1 after the 80th cycle), which is much superior to that of Co3O4 with thicker or thinner nanosheets as well as to that of the reported results. This facile strategy may be extended to the synthesis of other transition metal oxide NSAs, which can be potentially used in energy storage and conversion devices.

RESUMO

Selective oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes plays an important role in perfumery, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals industry. Different from traditional catalysis or photocatalytic process, here we report an effective photoelectrochemical (PEC) approach for selective anaerobic oxidation of alcohols accompanied with H2 production by means of solar energy. By using TiO2 nanowires modified with graphitic carbon layer as photoanode, benzyl alcohol (BA) has been oxidized to benzaldehyde with high efficiency and selectivity (>99 %) in aqueous media at room temperature, superior to individual electrocatalytic or photocatalytic processes. Moreover, this PEC synthesis method can be effectively extended to the oxidation of several other aryl alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes under mild conditions. The electron spin resonance (ESR) results indicate the formation of intermediate active oxygen (O2.- ) on the photoanode, which further reacts with alcohols to produce final aldehyde compounds.

RESUMO

A sophisticated hierarchical nanoarray consisting of a conducting polymer (polypyrrole, PPy) core and layered double hydroxide (LDH) shell are synthesized via a facile two-step electrosynthesis method. The obtained PPy@LDH-based flexible all-solid-state supercapacitor meets the requirements of both high energy/power output and long-term endurance, which can be potentially used in highly-efficient and stable energy storage.

RESUMO

Three-component microspheres containing an SiO(2)-coated Fe(3)O(4) magnetite core and a layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoplatelet shell have been synthesized via an in situ growth method. The resulting Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2)@NiAl-LDH microspheres display three-dimensional core-shell architecture with flowerlike morphology, large surface area (83 m(2)/g), and uniform mesochannels (4.3 nm). The Ni(2+) cations in the NiAl-LDH shell provide docking sites for histidine and the materials exhibit excellent performance in the separation of a histidine (His)-tagged green fluorescent protein, with a binding capacity as high as 239 µg/mg. The microspheres show highly selective adsorption of the His-tagged protein from Escherichia coli lysate, demonstrating their practical applicability. Moreover, the microspheres possess superparamagnetism and high saturation magnetization (36.8 emu/g), which allows them to be easily separated from solution by means of an external magnetic field and subsequently reused. The high stability and selectivity of the Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2)@NiAl-LDH microspheres for the His-tagged protein were retained over several separation cycles. Therefore, this work provides a promising approach for the design and synthesis of multifunctional LDH microspheres, which can be used for the practical purification of recombinant proteins, as well as having other potential applications in a variety of biomedical fields including drug delivery and biosensors.
