In this study, we have introduced a facile, effective and low-cost process of in-situ vulcanization for preparing α-MnS@C composite via simple calcination-thermolysis of one manganese coordination polymer (CP-1-ZX). In this procedure, the 1D chain [-Mn-SO-] in CP-1-ZX is completely reduced into α-MnS by the as-synthesized carbon. So the in-situ vulcanization provides an atom-economy route to fabricate sulfides by using least synthetic steps and sulfur sources. The α-MnS@C composite maintains the microball morphology of CP-1-ZX precursor, which is composed of many core-shell nanoparticles. Due to high porosity, hierarchical pores and good conductivity, the specific capacitance of α-MnS@C is up to 856F g at 0.5 A g, and keeps 82% retention after 5000 cycles. Meanwhile, one asymmetric supercapacitor cell (ASC) is assembled by combining α-MnS@C with commercial active carbon (AC). The α-MnS@C//AC device delivers prominent energy density of 28.4 Wh kg at power density of 395 W kg, and still retains 17.8 Wh kg at 8020 W kg. Furthmore, four tandem ASC devices can brightly glow a lamp bulb for 30 s. Therefore, the α-MnS@C composite shows great applications in supercapacitors.

Developing a catalytic nanoenzyme activated by the tumor microenvironment (TME) shows excellent potential for in situ cancer treatment. However, the rational design of a cascade procedure to achieve high therapeutic efficiency remains challenging. In this study, the colorectal TME-responsive multifunctional cascade nanoenzyme CuO@MnO@glucose oxidase (GOx)@hyaluronic acid (HA) was developed to target in situ cancer starvation/chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT).

Traditional p-type CuO (pCuO), valued for its tunable band gap and p-type conductivity, has been widely used in photoelectrochemical biosensors. However, its weak conductivity leads to unsatisfied photoelectrochemical signals and limits its use in in situ vulcanization reactions. We synthesized n-type CuO (nCuO) with abundant oxygen vacancies through a simple chemical reduction for the first time, which was applied as efficient photoactive material.

Silicone sealants and adhesives are extensively used in construction, automotive, industrial, and electronic applications because they exhibit excellent mechanical properties, strong adhesion, and good weather resistance. Room-temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicones develop good adhesion to many substrates and do not require heat for curing, which leads to flexible use in many applications. Although it is known that various factors such as relative humidity and temperature affect the curing of the RTV silicone adhesives, the interfacial chemistry that occurs during the curing process is still poorly understood but critical for success in adhesive applications.

The multi-element synergism in high-entropy materials (HEMs) provides great opportunities as multi-functional catalysts or for the promotion of tandem reactions. Herein, a strategy that utilizes a high entropy precursor is proposed to realize the formation of a unique high entropy metallic-high entropy non-metallic community (HEM-HENMC). Aminotriazole acts as a "bonding agent" for the high entropy precursor, and not only binds the five metals Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni together, but also introduces nitrogen and carbon .

Over the years, polyoxometalates (POMs) have been advocated as one of the most promising classes of molecular preassembly platform for the fabrication of highly efficient metal sulfide electrocatalysts. However, designing POMs-derived metal sulfides with high intrinsic activity, good site accessibility and structural stability for both acidic and alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) remains a great challenge because of the self-aggregation and random distribution of traditional POM precursors. Herein, we have designed a bimetallic sulfide eventually encapsulated by CN walls (CoMoS@CN) for efficient HER based on a simple hydrothermal and subsequent high-temperature vulcanization using the well-designed POM superlattice assembly as precursor.
