The kinetics of axial water substitution by azoles (pyrazole and 1,2,4-triazole) in three different cobaloximes, viz.trans-[Co(Hdmg)(2)(R)H(2)O] where Hdmg = dimethylglyoximate, R = PhCH(2), Et and CF(3)CH(2), were studied as a function of azole concentration, temperature and pressure in aqueous solution. The second order rate constants for the substitution of water in trans-[Co(Hdmg)(2)(R)H(2)O] for R = Et at pH 6.0, 25 degrees C and I= 0.1 M (NaClO(4)), were found to be 1309 and 1200 M(-1) s(-1) for pyrazole (Pz) and 1,2,4-triazole (Tz), respectively, and those obtained for R = PhCH(2) were found to be 755 and 691 M(-1) s(-1), respectively. The second order rate constants in the case of R = CF(3)CH(2) were found to be 0.358 and 0.348 M(-1) s(-1) for Pz and Tz, respectively. The relative order of reactivity for the different alkyls being Et > PhCH(2) > CF(3)CH(2). The activation parameters (DeltaH([not equal]), DeltaS([not equal]) and DeltaV([not equal])) obtained for these reactions were found to be in the range of 65-87 kJ mol(-1), 24-47 J mol(-1) K(-1) and 2.5-7.7 cm(3) mol(-1), respectively. These data suggest that an I(d) substitution mechanism operates where the azoles participate in the transition state.

Materials with high crystallographic symmetry are supposed to be good thermoelectrics because they have high valley degeneracy () and superb carrier mobility (μ). Binary GeSe crystallizes in a low-symmetry orthorhombic structure accompanying the stereoactive 4s lone pairs of Ge. Herein, we rationally modify GeSe into a high-symmetry rhombohedral structure by alloying with GeTe based on the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion theory.

The interaction between proteins and aroma compounds significantly impacts cheese flavor retention during processing. However, it is still unknown how cheese proteins and the aldehyde aroma compounds (AACs) interact. This study aims to clarify the interaction mechanisms between the AACs (benzaldehyde, 2-methylpropanal, 2-methylbutanal and 3-methylbutanal) and β-casein (β-CN) using SPME-GC/MS, multi-spectroscopy techniques, and molecular dynamics simulations.

Uncontrolled release of active agents in active packaging reduces antimicrobial efficacy, hindering the effective protection of perishable products from microbial infection. Herein, a novel defective engineering was proposed to design defective and hollow ZIF-8 structures grown on TEMPO oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNFs) and use them as fast-reacting nanocarriers for loading and controlled release curcumin (Cur) in sodium alginate (SA) active packaging systems (CZT-Cur-SA). By employing stable chelation between tannic acid (TA) and ZIF-8 zinc ions, the connections between zinc ions and imidazole ligands were severed to form a loose and hollow structure, which facilitates the rapid reaction and release of active ingredients triggered by pH changes in the microenvironment.

Ceramic armor protection with complex shapes is limited by the difficult molding or machining processing, and 3D printing technology provides a feasible method for complex-shaped ceramics. In this study, ZrO ceramics were manufactured by 3D printing accompanied with microwave sintering. In 3D printing, the formula of photosensitive resin was optimized by controlling the content of polyurethane acrylic (PUA) as oligomer, and the photosensitive resin with 50% PUA showed excellent curing performance with a small volume shrinkage of 4.

Due to their inability to biodegrade, petroleum-based plastics pose significant environmental challenges by disrupting aquatic, marine, and terrestrial ecosystems. Additionally, the widespread presence of microplastics and nanoplastics induces serious health risks for humans and animals. These pressing issues create an urgent need for designing and developing eco-friendly, biodegradable, renewable, and non-toxic plastic alternatives.
