A hybrid material of graphene and porous Ni with highly active Ni(OH) was formed through a one-step electrochemical exfoliation assisted method. The porous Ni with a pore size of 2-10 micrometers obtained by a hydrogen bubble template method was used as the cathode while the graphite foil was used as the anode with only (NH)SO as the electrolyte. Both the high surface areas of porous Ni and the oxygen radicals in graphene favored the formation of the Ni(OH). It is confirmed by energy dispersion spectrum, transmission electron microscope, Raman spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. Both the active area and the glucose sensing property of the as-prepared hybrid material were estimated by electrochemical methods of cyclic voltammetry with current-voltage (C-V) curve, chronoamperometry with current-time (I-t) curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis, respectively. It shows an extraordinary active area as well as a low charge transfer resistance and absorption resistance. As a result, a high sensitivity of 6504 μA/mM cm within a linear range of 4 μM-1.0 mM was obtained for glucose detection.

Carbon fibre reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR-PEEK) implants have gained interest because of reported biomechanical advantages and radio-lucent properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of CFR-PEEK nails in patients with metastatic bone disease (MBD). We performed a retrospective cohort study evaluating patients with MBD undergoing intramedullary (IM) nailing for prophylaxis or fixation of pathological fractures using CFR- PEEK or titanium implants.

Lithium (Li) metal's extremely high specific energy and low potential make it critical for high-performance batteries. However, uncontrolled dendrite growth and an unstable solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) during repeated cycling still seriously hinder its practical application in Li metal batteries. Herein, we demonstrate a facile and effective approach to fabricate a flexible and robust hybrid SEI layer using two kinds of organo-polysulfides with different sulfur chain lengths [bis(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)disulfide (Si-O-2S) and bis(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)tetrasulfide (Si-O-4S)] as the additives in the electrolyte.

KOBu-promoted [3 + 2] cycloaddition of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with fullerenes has been developed for facile and efficient one-pot synthesis of 1,2,3,4-cyclic sulfoxide-fused [60]/[70]fullerene dihydrides, which offers a versatile platform for the site-selective preparation of various fullerene multiadducts with a wide range of functional groups. The utility of these tetra-functionalized fullerenes is demonstrated by the successful application as electron-transport materials in perovskite solar cells.
