In order to better understand the industrial volatile organic compounds(VOCs) emissions in China in recent years, an industrial VOCs emission inventory was developed from 2011 to 2019, based on the dynamic emission factors method and the comprehensive source classification system. The results showed that VOCs emissions increased first from 11122.7 kt in 2011 to 13397.

To determine the differences in emissions among different types of coatings, such as solvent-based, water-based, solvent-based ultra-violet(UV), water-based UV, and powder coatings, representative furniture manufacturing companies were selected for analysis. The emission concentrations and compositional characteristics of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in different types of coatings were compared and studied. The ozone formation potential(OFP) and secondary organic aerosol formation potential(SOAFP) of the different types of coatings were also analyzed.

Presently, there are a few studies on the measurement of industrial organic solvents in China. To determine the content and species of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in industrial organic solvents and to provide the emission factors of organic solvents, the Chinese wood and automotive coatings, which accounted for the largest proportion of production in the world, were investigated. Coating samples were obtained by sampling from companies and buying from markets, and were measured in accordance with the domestic standard testing methods for coatings.

The furniture manufacturing industry is a typical industry with high pollution, low added value, relatively outdated technology and low levels of pollution control. The process of furniture manufacturing uses a large number of paints and adhesives, which emit a great quantity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The furniture manufacturing industry is a key industry for the control of VOCs in China.

A series of novel 2,4-diaminopyrimidines containing piperidine and piperazine moieties were synthesized via an efficient one-pot methodology. The bioassay tests demonstrated that compounds 27 and 28 displayed much stronger antitumor activities against four human cancer cell lines (HepG2, A549, MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) than positive control fluorouracil. Particularly, compound 28 showed a two-fold improvement compared to fluorouracil in inhibiting MDA-MB-231 and A549 cell proliferation with IC50 values of 7.

Context: Rabdosia rubescens (Hemsl.) Hara (Lamiaceae) is widely used in traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of antitumor, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidation. It is also used as a supplement in the treatment of many cancers, such as esophagus, mammary gland, liver and prostate cancers.

Patches of ionization are common in the polar ionosphere, where their motion and associated density gradients give variable disturbances to high-frequency (HF) radio communications, over-the-horizon radar location errors, and disruption and errors to satellite navigation and communication. Their formation and evolution are poorly understood, particularly under disturbed space weather conditions. We report direct observations of the full evolution of patches during a geomagnetic storm, including formation, polar cap entry, transpolar evolution, polar cap exit, and sunward return flow.
