The Li-rich spinel Li4Mn5O12 (Li(Mn5/3Li1/3)O4) historically only shows a reversible cation-redox reaction, with a theoretical capacity of 135.5 mA h g-1. However, we found that a simple 400 °C solid-state synthesis method gives a Li4Mn5O12-like nanoparticulate cathode that yields significant reversible hybrid cation- and anion-redox capacities. A high specific capacity of 212 mA h g-1 was achieved. The reversible anion-redox contribution is attributed to the tiny particle size (<10 nm), which facilitates electron tunneling, and a possible random solid-solution in the Li(Mn5/3Li1/3)O4 lattice due to the low synthesis temperature.

Compared with Zn, the current mainly reported charge carrier for zinc hybrid capacitors, small-hydrated-sized and light-weight NH is expected as a better one to mediate cathodic interfacial electrochemical behaviors, yet has not been unraveled. Here we propose an NH-modulated cationic solvation strategy to optimize cathodic spatial charge distribution and achieve dynamic Zn/NH co-storage for boosting Zinc hybrid capacitors. Owing to the hierarchical cationic solvated structure in hybrid Zn(CFSO)-NHCFSO electrolyte, high-reactive Zn and small-hydrate-sized NH(HO) induce cathodic interfacial Helmholtz plane reconfiguration, thus effectively enhancing the spatial charge density to activate 20% capacity enhancement.

In this study, employing a simple anion exchange strategy and straightforward three-step synthetic route, a pair of promising nitrogen-rich heterocyclic cation and oxygen-rich anion were assembled together to generate two novel dinitramide energetic salts, both of which exhibit prominent detonation performance comparable to benchmark explosive RDX while possessing significantly lower mechanical sensitivity than RDX, thereby highlighting them as promising candidates for advanced secondary explosives. This work has directly led to a practical protocol for the design of chloride-free environmentally friendly IEMs, and accelerates the development of organic explosives with high-energy and low-sensitivity.

The insertion of β-amino acids and replacement of the amide bond with a urea bond in antimicrobial peptide sequences are promising approaches to enhance the antibacterial activity and improve proteolytic stability. Herein, we describe the synthesis, characterization, and antibacterial activity of short αβ cationic hybrid peptides LA-Orn-βAcc-PEA, ; LA-Lys-βAcc-PEA, ; and LA-Arg-βAcc-PEA, in which a C12 lipid chain is conjugated at the N terminus of peptide through urea bonds. Further, we evaluated all the peptides against both and methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and their multidrug resistant (MDR) clinical isolates.

Electronic grade hydrogen peroxide plays a crucial role in the fabrication of large-scale integrated circuits. However, hydrogen peroxide prepared by the anthraquinone method contains impurities such as lead ions (Pb) and phosphate, which can seriously affect the yield of the circuit. Traditional adsorbent materials have difficulty in solving the problem of simultaneous adsorption of trace anions and cations in hydrogen peroxide due to the single adsorption site and poor adsorption kinetics.

This research focuses on the selective detection of Hg2+ ions using hybrid nanosensors composed of rhodamine building blocks linked to polyamine units of varying chain lengths to produce Rho1-Rho4, which were subsequently conjugated with thioctic acid (RT1-RT4) and attached to the surface of gold nanoparticles to create hybrid nanosensors (GRT1-GRT4) designed for detecting heavy metals. The chemical structures, purity, morphology, and chemical composition were characterized through XRD, NMR, TEM, ATR-FTIR, and mass spectrometry. These hybrid nanosensors demonstrated excellent selectivity and sensitivity in colorimetric and fluorescence responses towards Hg2+, outperforming other metal ions.
