A facile organic-silica hybrid monolith was prepared by a thiol-ene click reaction of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane methacryl substituted (POSS-MA) with 1,4-bis(mercaptoacetoxy) butane (BMAB) using toluene and dodecanol as a porogenic system. The effects of the ratio of POSS-MA-BMAB and porogenic solvents and click reaction temperature on the morphology, permeability and column performance of the resulting POSS-BMAB hybrid monoliths were studied in detail. A uniform monolithic network with a high porosity was obtained. The POSS-BMAB hybrid monolith exhibited good permeability and high thermal and mechanical stability. A series of test compounds, including alkylbenzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, phenols and, anilines were used to evaluate the retention behaviors of the POSS-BMAB hybrid monolith in capillary liquid chromatography. The prepared POSS-BMAB hybrid monolith exhibited typical reversed-phase chromatographic behavior toward neutral solutes. The minimum plate height of this hybrid monolith was determined as 12.6 and 13.7 μm for thiourea and benzene, respectively. These results demonstrate that thiol-ene click chemistry can provide a facile and robust approach for the preparation of a POSS-based hybrid monolith.

The release of microcystin (MCs) in aquatic ecosystems poses a substantial risk to the safety of irrigation and drinking water. In view of the challenges associated with monitoring MCs in water bodies, given their low concentration levels (μg/L to ng/L) and the presence of diverse matrix interferences, there is an urgent need to develop an efficient, cost-effective and selective enrichment technique for MCs prior to its quantification. In this work, a gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-functionalized zwitterionic polymer monolith was described and further applied for the affinity enrichment of MCs.

The instability of hybrid wide-bandgap (WBG) perovskite materials (with bandgap larger than 1.68 eV) still stands out as a major constraint for the commercialization of perovskite/silicon tandem photovoltaics, yet its correlation with the facet properties of WBG perovskites has not been revealed. Herein, we combine experiments and theoretical calculations to comprehensively understand the facet-dependent instability of WBG perovskites.

Silicon photonics is a rapidly developing technology that promises to revolutionize the way we communicate, compute and sense the world. However, the lack of highly scalable, native complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-integrated light sources is one of the main factors hampering its widespread adoption. Despite considerable progress in hybrid and heterogeneous integration of III-V light sources on silicon, monolithic integration by direct epitaxy of III-V materials remains the pinnacle of cost-effective on-chip light sources.

This study evaluated the effects of immediate dentin sealing (IDS) using different universal adhesives on microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of pretreated monolithic translucent tetragonal polycrystalline zirconia-based CAD/CAM restoration to dentin and microscopic morphological alterations. Mid-coronal dentin were obtained from 32 human molars and randomly allocated into 8 groups according to the presence/absence of IDS, universal adhesives for IDS (Single Bond Universal/SBU, Clearfil Quick Bond/CUQ, Optibond Universal/OBU) and zirconia surface pretreatments (tribochemical silica coating-30 μm CoJet particles/TSC, sandblasting-50 μm AlO/SB): Group TSC, Group TSC+SBU, Group TSC+CUQ, Group TSC+OBU, Group SB, Group SB+SBU, Group SB+CUQ, Group SB+OBU. CAD/CAM restorations (Lava Plus High Translucency Zirconia Disc) were produced, luted, and subjected to 10.

In this work, we present the preparation of a hybrid material constituted by a Metal-Organic Framework (type MIL-101(Fe)) and a natural clay ceramic monolith (NCCM), the materials were successfully assembled through an in-situ hydrothermal method. The composites were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), N adsorption-desorption isotherms at 77 K and CO adsorption at 273 K; these techniques confirmed the obtaining of the hybrid material and, in addition, through studies before and after adsorption mechanisms involved were identified. Then, the As(V) adsorption capacity of the materials was evaluated using an aqueous arsenic solution; from which high adsorption capacities of up to 268 mg g and 61.
