Published: April 2023

As mining continues to increase in depth, the problem of pre-oxidation coal (POC) spontaneous combustion (PCSC) in deep mines is coming to the fore. The effects of thermal ambient temperature and pre-oxidation temperature (POT) on the thermal mass loss (TG) and heat release (DSC) characteristics of POC were studied. The results show that the oxidation reaction process is found to be similar among the coal samples. The majority of mass loss and heat release from the oxidation of the POC is in the stage III and decreases with increasing thermal ambient temperature, while the combustion properties change in the same way, indicating a consequent reduction in the risk of spontaneous combustion. The higher the POT, the more the critical POT tends to be at a lower POT at a higher thermal ambient temperature. It can be demonstrated that higher thermal ambient temperatures and higher POT lower the risk of spontaneous combustion of POC.

The escalating global climate crisis and energy challenges have made the development of efficient radiative cooling materials increasingly urgent. This study presents a machine-learning-based model for predicting the performance of radiative cooling aerogels (RCAs). The model integrated multiple parameters, including the material composition (matrix material type and proportions), modification design (modifier type and content), optical properties (solar reflectance and infrared emissivity), and environmental factors (solar irradiance and ambient temperature) to achieve accurate cooling performance predictions.

Photofunctional cyclophane host-guest systems.

Institut für Organische Chemie, Universität Würzburg, Am Hubland, 97074 Würzburg, Germany.

Modulation of optical properties through smart protein matrices is exemplified by a few examples in nature such as rhodopsin (absorption wavelength tuning) and the green fluorescence protein (emission), but in general, the scope found in nature for the matrix-controlled photofunctions remains rather limited. In this review, we present cyclophane-based supramolecular host-guest complexes for which electronic interactions between the cyclophane host and mostly planar aromatic guest molecules can actively modulate excited-state properties in a more advanced way involving both singlet and triplet excited states. We begin by highlighting photofunctional host-guest systems for on-off fluorescence switching and chiroptical functions using bay-functionalized perylene bisimide cyclophanes.

So far, the striking sign reversal in the near-ambient slope of the gap temperature dependence of colloidal CsPbCl perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) compared to its Br counterpart remains unresolved. Pure bromide NCs exhibit a linear gap increase with increasing temperature, to which thermal expansion and electron-phonon interaction equally contribute. In contrast, the temperature slope for the chlorine compound gap is clearly negative.

TRPV3 in skin thermosensation and temperature responses.

J Physiol Sci

January 2025

Thermal Biology Research Group, Nagoya Advanced Research and Development Center, Nagoya City University, Nagoya, Japan.

Human skin, as a sophisticated sensory organ, is able to detect subtle changes in ambient temperature. This thermosensory capability is primarily mediated by temperature-sensitive TRP channels expressed in both sensory neurons and keratinocytes. Among these, TRPV3, which responds to warm temperatures and plays a crucial role in various skin functions, is particularly notable.
