Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is a promising photocatalyst for water hydrogen evolution. Nonetheless, fast recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and the slow kinetics of hydrogen production result in the unsatisfactory efficiency of solar hydrogen production. we address this issue by anchoring the cobalt phosphide (CoP) cocatalyst onto the one-dimensional boron doped g-C3N4 nanotube (B-CNNT) to construct B-N-Co surface bonding states in the B-CNNT/CoP photocatalyst. Spectroscopic measurement and density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrated that the B-N-Co bonds optimize the local electronic distribution of bonded Co and adjacent P atoms, strengthen the electrons' delocalization capacity of Co atoms for high electrical conductivity and accelerate the photogenerated carrier transfer between B-CNNT and CoP, which lead to the enhanced photocatalytic activity of the B-CNNT/CoP photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution. B-CNNT/CoP-2.45% achieved a remarkable photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of 784 μmol g-1h-1 with an apparent quantum efficiency of 5.32% at 420 nm, which is significantly higher than demonstrated by CNNT/CoP-2.45% (153 μmol g-1h-1). Our findings provide insights into as well as establish theoretical and practical grounds for the development of low-cost, high-performance photocatalytic materials for hydrogen evolution.Covalent bond usually ensures a stable connection between nonmetallic atoms. However, the traditional reflux method usually requires the construction of complex instruments and equipment with tedious steps to ensure airtightness and reaction stability. In this work, an advanced method is adopted to bind core-shell CoFe2O4@PPy and rGO tightly via the aid of 2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethanamine (PyEA), dispense with a high-temperature environment or protective gas. Cobalt ferrite core and polypyrrole shell collaborate to approach suitable magnetic and conduction loss, while reduced graphene oxide usually provides a stable sheet structure for interface multiple reflections, and replenish the insufficient dielectric loss. The filled biscuit-shaped covalently bond CoFe2O4@PPy-rGO has a fantastically broad absorption bandwidth of 13.12 GHz under the thickness of 3.6 mm, together with a minimum reflection loss of -50.1 dB at 6.56 GHz, achieving both impedance matching and attenuation matching, and effectively responding to all electromagnetic waves in the X and Ku bands. Thus, the covalently bonded CoFe2O4@PPy-rGO has potential application in broadband absorption.The current strategy of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR) to generate useful chemicals and hydrocarbons is supposed to effectively mitigate the greenhouse effect. Selisistat The practical application for eCO2RR in aqueous solutions, however, still was encumbered by its high overpotential, low activity and poor selectivity due to CO2 mass transfer and intermediate stability. Electrocatalytic materials with reduced overpotential and high efficiency and selectivity are exploited for further development. Herein, Ag+ and Cu2+ precursors were co-reduced to generate Ag-Cu bimetallic aerogel after further freeze drying. Compared with Ag100 aerogel, the optimal Ag88Cu12 can effectively decrease overpotential, improve selectivity and current density, and keep electrochemical stability. At -0.89 V vs. RHE, the Faraday efficiency reached 89.40% and the CO partial current density of -5.86 mA cm-2 was obtained. The intrinsic property of metal aerogel (hydrophobic, hierarchical porous structure, conductivity), presence of rich grain boundaries and geometric effect and the introduction of Cu leading to improvement of adsorption between the catalyst and the *COOH intermediate in Ag88Cu12, contribute to the enhanced performance. Furthermore, the strategy of constructing metal aerogel will improve metal catalyst performance towards eCO2RR and pave way for further industrial applications.Recently, two-dimensional transition metal carbide/nitride (MXene) and its composites with polymers have attracted great interest from researchers due to their potential applications in flexible electronics, electromagnetic shielding, catalysis, and energy storage. However, the easy oxidation of MXene and the low efficiency of traditional composites preparation methods have brought great challenges to the practical application of polymer/MXene composites. Here, we prepared polystyrene/Mxene (PS/MXene) composites with a 3D conductive network structure through particle construction strategy. Because of the compact and ordered structure, the conductivity of the material reached 3846.15 S/m when the filler content was only 1.81 vol%, and it can retain 53.4% of the initial value after 180 days. Furthermore, based on the 3D network, we orientated the MXene nanosheets in the matrix to form the MXene orientated 3D network binary structure. This unique structure design further increased the utilization rate of MXene and made the material conductivity reach to 4471.13 S/m, with the percolation threshold as low as 0.175 vol%. We believe that this research can provide a feasible way for the practical application of MXene composite materials.The current commercialized polyethylene (PE) separator has poor wettability and thermal stability which will seriously restrict the electrochemical performance and affect the safety of lithium ion battery. Herein, a porous hybrid layer coated separator with high thermal stability, good electrochemical performance and improved wettability was prepared by a template-free method via the synergistic effect between tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and aramid nano fibers (ANFs) during the evaporation of solvent and the in-situ gelation of TEOS. The results show that the porous hybrid coating layers can enhance the thermal stability, wettability and electrolyte uptake of the separators. Moreover, the lithium ion transference number is also increased. As a result, the battery assembled with the composite separator exhibits enhanced electrochemical performance in terms of cycle stability and rate performance. When coupled with LiCoO2cathode, the capacity retention rate is as high as 96.0% after 100 cycles at 0.2C.
