The metal atoms in group 11 complexes [M{(PR2)2C2B9H10}L] [R = Ph, (i)Pr; L = tertiary phosphane; M = Au, Ag, Cu] play an important role in the emissive properties of these compounds. The influence of the metal follows the order Au ≫ Ag ≥ Cu. The three-coordinated complexes are obtained from the reaction of [AuClL], [Ag(OTf)L], or [Cu(NO3)(PPh3)2] with the closo carborane diphosphane in refluxing ethanol. For L = PPh2NHPy, cleavage of the P-N bond and the formation of the monophosphane PPh2OEt are observed, depending on the metal and the nido carborane diphosphane substituent ((i)Pr or Ph).

The carbon footprint associated with cement production, coupled with depletion of natural resources and climate change, underscores the need for sustainable alternatives. This study explores the effect of metakaolin (MK) and nano-silica (NS) on concrete's engineering performance and environmental impact. Initially, compressive, tensile, and flexural strength tests, along with durability assessments like water absorption, sorptivity, rapid chloride permeability, and resistance to acid and sulphate attacks, were conducted.

Due to growing population and technological advances, global electricity consumption is increasing. Although CO emissions are projected to plateau or slightly decrease by 2025 due to the adoption of clean energy sources, they are still not decreasing enough to mitigate climate change. The residential sector makes up 25% of global electricity consumption and has potential to improve efficiency and reduce CO footprint without sacrificing comfort.

Due to the high cost of raw materials, this work aims to benefit from metal waste, especially iron (Fe) and silicon bronze, which results from turning workshops and recycling them to obtain nanocomposites for industrial applications. In this respect, Fe/SiBr/SiN/silica fume nanocomposites possessing superior mechanical, wear, and magnetic characteristics have been produced using powder metallurgy (PM) technology. Milled sample particle size, crystal size, and phase composition were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

Pendant organic chromophores have been used to improve the photocatalytic performance of many metal-based photosensitizers, particularly in first-row metals, by increasing π conjugation in ligands and lowering the energy of the photoactive absorption band. Using a combination of spectroscopic studies and computational modeling, we rationalize the excited state dynamics of a Co(III) complex containing pendant pyrene moieties, , where = 1,1'-(4-(pyren-1-yl)pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium). displays higher visible absorptivity, and blue luminescence from pyrene singlet excited states compared with [ = 1,1'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazol-3-ium)] in which the pyrene moiety is absent.

To this day, energy conservation, emission reduction, and environmental protection continue to be goals pursued by humanity. Passive radiation cooling, as a zero-consumption refrigeration technology, offers substantial opportunities for reducing global energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. It is of great significance to develop high-performance passive radiation cooling materials from sustainable materials.
