Perovskite-type LaMnO(3) and La(0.8)Sr(0.2)MnO(3) with high specific surface areas were prepared by stearic acid gel combustion method. The obtained powders were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and XPS techniques. Their catalytic activities were investigated on thermal decomposition of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) by TG-DSC techniques. The experimental results show that LaMnO(3) is a more effective catalyst than La(0.8)Sr(0.2)MnO(3) for the sublimation and melting process of RDX because of its higher concentration ratio of surface-adsorbed species. And the catalytic activity of La(0.8)Sr(0.2)MnO(3) is higher than that of LaMnO(3) for thermal decomposition of liquid RDX. This could be attributed to its higher concentration ratios of surface oxygen and Mn(4+)/Mn(3+). In conclusion, the concentration ratios of surface oxygen and Mn(4+)/Mn(3+) could play key roles for RDX thermal decomposition. This study points out a potential way to develop new and more active perovskite-type catalysts for the RDX thermal decomposition.

The corrugated <110> oriented layered metal halide perovskites (MHP) are gaining increased attention for a variety of properties including intrinsic white light emission. One prototypical candidate is 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole lead bromide, which was reported to crystallize as the <110> oriented perovskite (API)PbBr [API = 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole]. This work shows that under similar reaction conditions, the same components can instead form (API)PbBr, which has a "perovskitoid" structure.

The safety of the P2-type layered transition metal oxides (P2-NaTMO), a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), is a prerequisite for grid-scale energy storage systems. However, previous thermal runaway studies mainly focused on morphological changes resulting from gas production detection and thermogravimetric analysis, while the structural transition and chemical reactions underlying these processes are still unclear. Herein, a comprehensive methodology to unveil an interplay mechanism among phase structures, interfacial microcrack, and thermal stability of the charged P2-NaNiMnO (NNMO) and the P2-NaNiLiMnO (NNMO-Li) at elevated temperatures is established.

In this study, a novel tunnel structure vanadate NaVO (NaVO) cathode for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) is facilely fabricated by thermal decomposition of polyoxovanadate containing NH ions. The NaVO cathode is characterized by abundant oxygen vacancies and nanometer dimensions. These attributes can offer extra reaction sites and suppress structural collapse during circulation.

The thermal dehydration of sodium carbonate monohydrate (SC-MH) exhibits kinetic characteristics that are typical of the thermal decomposition of solids with a reversible nature. One of the characteristics is the physico-geometrical constraints of the reaction due to the heterogeneous reaction feature. Another factor is the considerable impact of the atmospheric and self-generated water vapor on the kinetics.

γ-l-Glutamyl-S-allyl-l-cysteine (GSAC) is renowned for its flavor-modifying effects and beneficial biological activities. However, the level of GSAC decreases significantly during the processing of black garlic, and the pathways and degradation products resulting from this decline remain unclear. To investigate the potential transformation mechanisms of GSAC in black garlic, simulation systems for thermal decomposition, Maillard reactions, and enzymatic hydrolysis were established.
