The synthesis of stable polynitrogen compounds with high-energy density has long been a major challenge. The cyclo-pentazolate anion (cyclo-N ) is successfully converted into aromatic and structurally symmetric bipentazole (N) via electrochemical synthesis using highly conductive multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as the substrate and sodium pentazolate hydrate ([Na(HO)(N)]·2HO) as the raw material. Attenuated total refraction Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and density functional theory calculations confirmed the structure and homogeneous distribution of N in the sidewalls of the MWCNTs (named MWCNT-N10-n m). The MWCNT-N10-2.0 m is further used as a catalyst for electrochemical oxygen reduction to synthesize hydrogen peroxide from oxygen with a two-electron selectivity of up to 95%.

In this work, we pioneered the preparation of diamond-containing flexible electrodes using 3D printing technology. The herein developed procedure involves a unique integration of boron-doped diamond (BDD) microparticles and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) within a flexible polymer, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). Initially, the process for the preparation of homogeneous filaments with optimal printability was addressed, leading to the development of two TPU/CNT/BDD composite electrodes with different CNT:BDD weight ratios (1:1 and 1:2), which were benchmarked against a TPU/CNT electrode.

Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) present high promise for chemiresistive gas sensing owing to their inherent porosities, high surface areas, and tunable semiconducting properties. However, the poor conductivity hinders their widespread application in chemiresistive sensing. In this work, three typical CMPs (PSATA, PSATB, and PSATT) are synthesized and their chemiresistive gas sensing performance is investigated for the first time.

Cyclohexanone oxime, a critical precursor for nylon-6 production, is traditionally synthesized via the hydroxylamine method under industrial harsh conditions. Here is present a one-step electrochemical integrated approach for the efficient production of cyclohexanone oxime under ambient conditions. This approach employed the coupling of in situ electro-synthesized HO over a cobalt (Co)-based electrocatalyst with the titanium silicate-1 (TS-1) heterogeneous catalyst to achieve the cyclohexanone ammoximation process.
