RESUMO
Developing new high-performance electrode materials for improving the energy density of supercapacitors is an important task. Herein, a new three-dimensional (3D) metal-orgainc framework (MOF) [Mn(BGPD)(H2O)2] (Mn-BGPD; BGPD = N,N'-bis(glycinyl)pyromellitic diimide) was synthesized. When Mn-BGPD is used as the electrode material of supercapacitors, in a three-electrode setup, it shows an outstanding specific capacitance of 832.6 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1. The asymmetrical supercapacitor of Mn-BGPD shows an attractive specific capacitance of 100 F g-1 at 1 A g-1, which corresponds to an excellent energy density of 35.5 W h kg-1. Moreover, better cycling stability with a capacitance retention of 46.7% is also shown. The high electrochemical performance makes Mn-BGPD a very promising electrode material for supercapacitors.
RESUMO
A drug delivery system was designed by deliberately combining the useful functions into one entity, which was composed of magnetic ZnFe2O4 hollow microsphere as the core, and mesoporous silica with folic acid molecules as the outer shell. Amine groups coated magnetic ZnFe2O4 hollow microsphere core/mesoporous silica shell (MZHM-MSS-NH2) composite particles were first synthesized by a one-pot direct co-condensation method. Subsequently a novel kind of folic acid-functionalized magnetic ZnFe2O4 hollow microsphere core/mesoporous silica shell (MZHM-MSS-NHFA) composite particles were synthesized by conjugating folic acid as targeted molecule to MZHM-MSS-NH2. Ibuprofen, a well-known antiphlogistic drug, was used as a model drug to assess the loading and releasing behavior of the composite microspheres. The results show that the MZHM-MSS-NHFA system has the higher capacity of drug storage and good sustained drug-release property.
