Hierarchical evolution of bone biomimicry and osteo-coagulo-immunomodulation induced by the size of biological hydroxyapatite.

Biological hydroxyapatite (BHA) is widely used in the treatment of clinical bone defects due to its good biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. The clinical application of mateiral size is based on the principle of bone defect area adaptation, which contributes to diversity of BHA sizes. However, different sizes correspond to different hierarchical levels of bone biomimicry.

Removal of Fe(III)/Al(III)/Mg(II) by phosphonic group functionalized resin in wet-process phosphoric acid: Mechanism and intrinsic selectivity.

The removal of iron ions (Fe(III)), aluminum ions (Al(III)), and magnesium ions (Mg(II)) in phosphoric acid (HPO) solution is vital for the production of HPO and supply of phosphate fertilizer. However, the mechanism and intrinsic selectivity for removal of Fe(III), Al(III), and Mg(II) from wet-process phosphoric acid (WPA) by phosphonic group (-POH) functionalized MTS9500 are still unclear. In this work, the removal mechanisms were determined via combined analysis of FT-IR, XPS, molecular dynamics (MD), and quantum chemistry (QC) simulations based on density functional theory (DFT).

Environmental-friendly and effectively regenerate anode material of spent lithium-ion batteries into high-performance P-doped graphite.

Recycling graphitefrom spentlithium-ionbatteries has been largely ignored.In the present work, we propose a novel purification process, which modifies the structure of graphite through phosphoric acid leaching-calcination to obtain high-performance phosphorus (P)-doped graphite (LG-temperature) and lithium phosphate products. The content analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and scanning electron microscope focused ion beam (SEM-FIB) indicates that the LG structure is deformed by the doped P atom.
