This study examined the possibility of deep significance for the reduction of low-valence tungsten to inhibit disproportionation reactions in various molten alkali chlorides. Electrolysis and electrochemical tests of tungsten carbide were carried out in molten LiCl, LiCl-KCl, NaCl-KCl, NaCl-CsCl, and KCl-CsCl. One finding was that the reduction valence of tungsten ions decreased as the radius of the solvent alkali ion increased. This phenomenon may be viewed from the dissolution of tungsten carbide and the existence and deposition of tungsten ions. The mechanism of tungsten ion reduction and the stable configuration of tungsten ion groups were confirmed a detailed study of the computational calculation. The increase in the radius of the solvent alkali ion was conducive to the dissolution of tungsten from tungsten carbide in the form of low valence state. Other results also indicated that W(II) ion groups first deposited on the cathode. They had the advantages of smaller coordination numbers and faster diffusion combined. Morphological and composition analysis results of the products are also presented.

Metallic biomaterials are extensively used in orthopedics and dentistry, either as implants or coatings. In both cases, metal ions come into contact with surrounding tissues causing a particular cell response. Here, we present a biofabricated tissue model, consisting of a hydrogel reinforced with a melt electrowritten mesh, to study the effects of bound and released metal ions on surrounding cells embedded in a hydrogel matrix.

A novel antimonotungstate (AT)-based heterometallic framework {[Er(HO)][Fe(Hpdc)(B-β-SbWO)]}·50HO (, Hpdc = pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid) was obtained through a synergistic strategy of in situ-generated transition-metal-encapsulated polyoxometalate (POM) building units and the substitution reaction. Its structural unit is composed of a tetra-Fe-substituted Krebs-type [Fe(Hpdc)(B-β-SbWO)] subunit and two [Er(HO)] cations. This subunit can be regarded as a product of carboxylic oxygen atoms of Hpdc ligands replacing active water ligands in the [Fe(HO)(B-β-SbWO)] species.

The chemical flexibility of the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure offers a large potential for compositional engineering. Cation size and vacancy concentration are known to affect its structure, cation disorder, and functional properties. However, the compositional complexity also makes the TTB structure challenging to understand.

With the increasing demand for food safety monitoring, the development of efficient, convenient, and green gas sensors has become a current research hotspot. Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) as a triethylamine sensor is a cutting-edge strategy for detection without the need for an additional power source. In this study, synthesized WO/MXene materials were prepared and bilayer thin films of carbon quantum dots (CPDs)-WO/MXene TENG.

The enhancement effect of Ce modification on VO-WO/TiO catalysts at low temperatures was investigated for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH (NH-SCR). By adding 9% CeO to 0.5%VO-3%WO/TiO catalyst, the low-temperature denitrification performance of CeVWTi catalyst after Ce modification was significantly improved, achieving a NO conversion above 90% within a broad temperature range of 200-350℃, with catalytic activity comparable to that of 3% VO-3% WO/TiO.
