Polyoxometalates-Mediated Selectivity in Pt Single-Atoms on Ceria for Environmental Catalysis.

Optimizing the reactivity and selectivity of single-atom catalysts (SACs) remains a crucial yet challenging issue in heterogeneous catalysis. This study demonstrates selective catalysis facilitated by a polyoxometalates-mediated electronic interaction (PMEI) in a Pt single-atom catalyst supported on CeO modified with Keggin-type phosphotungstate acid (HPW), labeled as Pt/CeO-HPW. The PMEI effect originates from the unique arrangement of isolated Pt atoms and HPW clusters on the CeO support.

Observations on the Therapeutic Efficacy of Biomimetic Physiotherapy Combined with Manipulation Therapy in Managing Myofascial Pelvic Pain Syndrome in Women.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of biomimetic physiotherapy combined with manipulation therapy in the management of female myofascial pelvic pain syndrome (MPPS).

Methods: A total of 120 patients diagnosed with MPPS at our hospital from June 2018 to June 2021 were included. All patients had a history of sexual activity, met the diagnostic criteria for female chronic pelvic pain, and exhibited pelvic floor muscle and myofascial trigger points in gynecological examinations.

Phosphotungstic Acid as a Dechlorination Agent Collaborates with CeO for Synergistic Catalytic Elimination of NO and Chlorobenzene.

The development of efficient technologies for the synergistic catalytic elimination of NO and chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) remains challenging. Chlorine species from CVOCs are prone to catalyst poisoning, which increases the degradation temperature of CVOCs and fails to balance the selective catalytic reduction of NO with the NH (NH-SCR) performance. Herein, synergistic catalytic elimination of NO and chlorobenzene has been originally demonstrated by using phosphotungstic acid (HPW) as a dechlorination agent to collaborate with CeO.

Preparation of CuO@humic acid@carbon nanotube composite material using humic acid as a coupling agent and its lithium-ion storage performance.

The conventional Li-ion battery composite electrode material composed of CuO and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) suffer from poor contact between CuO and CNTs. This results in high electrode resistance and poor electrochemical performance. To solve this problem, CuO@humic acid (HA) @CNT anode material with cross-linked network structure was generated by linking CuO and CNT with HA as a coupling agent.

Expediting Toluene Combustion by Harmonizing the Ce-O Strength over Co-Doped CeZr Oxide Catalysts.

Low-temperature catalytic degradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by enhancing the activity of non-precious metal catalysts has always been the focus of attention. The mineralization of aromatic VOCs requires the participation of a large number of oxygen atoms, so the activation of oxygen species is crucial in the degradation reaction. Herein, we originally adjust the Ce-O bond strength in CeZr oxide catalysts by cobalt doping to promote the activation of oxygen species, thus improving the toluene degradation performance while maintaining high stability.
