AI Article Synopsis
- An axially ligated Co(tmp) anion was synthesized and oxidized, leading to the formation of open shell tmp π-ligands.
- Crystals formed in different solvents display unique structural characteristics, with acetone yielding solvent-free radical crystals and CHCN leading to solvent-inclusive crystals.
- Both types exhibit weak π-π interactions, resulting in low electrical conductivity, classifying them as semiconductors with a resistivity of approximately 10 Ω cm at room temperature.
Article Abstract
An axially ligated Co(tmp) (tmp = 5,10,15,20-tetramethylporphyrinato) anion, [Co(tmp)(CN)], has been prepared and subjected to electrochemical oxidation to obtain the open shell tmp π-ligand. With acetone as the solvent, solvent-free neutral radical crystals of Co(tmp)(CN) are obtained, whereas solvent-inclusive crystals of Co(tmp)(CN)·2CHCN are obtained with CHCN as the solvent. In both crystals, the open shell tmp ring deforms into a ruffled form, which makes the π-π interactions in the crystal weak. Thus, the electrical conductivity is low, and the crystals behave as semiconductors with a room temperature resistivity of 10 Ω cm and an activation energy of about 0.3 eV. When the solvent is acetone, non-oxidized crystals of the CN-bridged polymer {[Co(tmp)(CN)](acetone)} are obtained as a byproduct. The closed shell tmp ring deforms into a ruffled form, and there π-π interactions in the crystal are negligible. The room temperature resistivity is rather high at about 10 Ω cm.

Tympanic membrane perforation (TMP) is prevalent in clinical settings. Patients with TMPs often suffer from infections caused by and , leading to middle ear and external ear canal infections, which hinder eardrum healing. The objective of this study is to fabricate an enzyme-responsive antibacterial electrospun scaffold using poly(lactic--glycolic acid) and hyaluronic acid for the treatment of infected TMPs.

Article Synopsis
- CeO is an important cocatalyst that boosts the electrocatalytic activity of transition metal phosphides (TMPs), but its exact mechanism is not fully understood.
- The study introduces the CeO-CoP-1-4 microsphere heterostructure catalyst, which shows strong performance for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with a low overpotential and impressive durability.
- Analytical techniques and theoretical calculations indicate that CeO modifies the electronic structure of CoP, enhancing reaction kinetics and providing insights for designing better electrocatalysts.

Food protein carriers from different sources might have distinct stabilizing and enhancing effects on the same small molecule. To elucidate the molecular mechanism, five different sourced proteins including soy protein isolates (SPIs), whey protein isolates (WPIs), edible dock protein (EDP), protein (TMP), and yeast protein (YP) were used to prepare protein hydrogels for delivering myricetin (Myr). The results suggested that the loading capacity order of Myr in different protein hydrogels was EDP (11.

The transition metal phosphide (TMP)-based functional electrocatalysts are very promising for the development of electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices including rechargeable metal-air batteries and water electrolyzer. Tuning the electrocatalytic activity of TMPs is one of the vital steps to achieve the desired performance of these energy devices. Herein, we demonstrate the modulation of the bifunctional oxygen electrocatalytic activity of nitrogen-doped carbon-encapsulated CoP (CoP@NC) nanostructures by surface tailoring with ultralow amount (0.

Vinyl-capped cationic waterborne polyurethane (CWPU) was prepared using isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), polycarbonate diol (PCDL), -methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), and trimethylolpropane (TMP) as raw materials and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) as a capping agent. Then, a crosslinked FPUA composite emulsion with polyurethane (PU) as the shell and fluorinated acrylate (PA) as the core was prepared by core-shell emulsion polymerization with CWPU as the seed emulsion, together with dodecafluoroheptyl methacrylate (DFMA), diacetone acrylamide (DAAM), and methyl methacrylate (MMA). The effects of the core-shell ratio of PA/PU on the surface properties, mechanical properties, and heat resistance of FPUA emulsions and films were investigated.
