Published: December 2012

The silver zinc hexa-deca-phosphide Ag3.73(4)Zn2.27(4)P16 is the first polyphosphide in the ternary system Ag/Zn/P. It was synthesized from stoichiometric mixtures of Ag, Zn and P in the molar ratio 4:2:16, using AgI as a mineralizing agent in a gas-phase-assisted reaction. Ag3.73(4)Zn2.27(4)P16 crystallizes in the Cu5InP16 structure type. The asymmetric unit contains two Ag/Zn sites with mixed occupancies and four P sites. One of the Ag/Zn sites is located on a twofold rotation axis. The polyanionic [P16]-substructure consists of corrugated six-membered rings that are connected into a layer via the 1-, 2-, 4- and 5-positions of the rings by a bridging P atom in each case. The layers extend parallel to the bc plane and are stacked along the a axis. Both Ag/Zn sites are tetra-hedrally coordinated by P atoms.

Developing functional dressings for promoting cellular activities and monitoring the healing progress is receiving increasingly widespread attention. In this study, Ag/Zn electrodes were deposited on the surface of a polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibrous membrane which can mimic the extracellular matrix. When wetted by wound exudate, the Ag/Zn electrodes could generate an electric stimulation (ES), promoting the migration of fibroblasts that heal wounds.

Secondary aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are considered as one of the promising energy storage devices, but their widespread application is limited by the Zn dendrite issues. In this work, we propose a rational design of surface protective coatings to solve this problem. Specifically, a silver (Ag) nanoparticle embedded amorphous AlN matrix (AlN/Ag) protective layer is developed.

The mechanism of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on transition metal-doped nitrogen codoped single-walled nanotubes, CHMN (MN-CNT where M = Zn, Cu, or Ag; N = pyridinic nitrogen), has been studied with the density functional theory method at the ωB97XD/DGDZVP level of theory. The charge density analysis revealed two active sites of the catalyst toward ORR: the MN site and the C=C bond of the N-C=C-N metal-chelating fragment (C site). The structure of O-containing adsorbates (O , HOO*, O*, HO*, etc.

In this paper, Ag/Zn-MIP-TiO was prepared by sol-gel method, and the imprinted molecule was ethyl p-hydroxybenzoate. To study the properties of the Ag/Zn-MIP-TiO on the photocatalytic activity, these factors were investigated: the effects of the dosage of Ag and Zn, the amount of imprinted molecules, the calcination temperature and time, then the capture of active substances. Besides, the selectivity of Ag/Zn-MIP-TiO was investigated in three aspects: UV-vis multi-wavelength spectral integral area change, specific group absorbance change and traditional reaction kinetic parameter change.

The electrocatalytic CO reduction reaction (CO RR) can dynamise the carbon cycle by lowering anthropogenic CO emissions and sustainably producing valuable fuels and chemical feedstocks. Methanol is arguably the most desirable C product of CO RR, although it typically forms in negligible amounts. In our search for efficient methanol-producing CO RR catalysts, we have engineered Ag-Zn catalysts by pulse-depositing Zn dendrites onto Ag foams (PD-Zn/Ag foam).
