In this work, the arabinofuranosidase Abf62A gene was cloned from Aspergillus usamii genomic DNA through sequential molecular processes and expressed in Pichia pastoris X33. The xylan (100 g/L) extracted xylan in wheat straw (WS) was biologically hydrolyzed into 50.32 g/L of XOSs by xylanase Xyn11A (300 U/g substrate) and arabinofuranase Abf62A (20 U/g substrate), which indicated a notable synergistic effect compared to the 34.42 g/L XOSs produced via Xyn11A. The 50.32 g/L of XOSs products comprised xylobiose (31.71 g/L), xylotriose (15.92 g/L), xylotetraose (1.65 g/L) and xylopentaose (1.04 g/L). Notably, the combined content of xylobiose and xylotriose accounted for up to 94.7%. The XOSs purified from the enzyme hydrolysate could effectually scavenge free radicals, and the antioxidant activity was more than 90%. In summary, XOSs were biologically manufactured from wheat straw xylan through the synergistic biocatalysis via xylanase and arabinofuranosidase Abf62A in a green and sustainable way, rending one kind of prebiotic oligosaccharides with substantial positive effects on human and animal health.展开更多

文摘The combination of solar disinfection and photocatalysis technology presents a viable solution for eliminating harmful pathogenic microorganisms from water.However,some photocatalysts(e.g.,zinc oxide-based composites)are susceptible to pH-dependent dissolution in water,which can result in the loss of photocatalysts and additional environ-mental pollution.To obtain zinc oxide-based composites with low dissolution and high antibacterial efficiency for pho-tocatalytic water disinfection,we prepared MoS_(2)/ZnO@CS composites via a precipitation method to encapsulate chitosan(CS)around MoS_(2)/ZnO.The amino groups in the CS molecules act as storerooms for hydrogen ions,which inhibits the dissolution of zinc oxide.In addition,the MoS_(2)/ZnO@CS composites exhibit high production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity under simulated solar irradiation(0.1 W·cm^(-2)).This makes it an excellent antibacterial agent for solar disinfection in water treatment.
文摘One Yb(Ⅲ)-based coordination polymer,{[Yb(H_(2)dhtp)1.5(H_(2)O)_(4)]·3H_(2)O}n(1)(H_(4)dhtp=2,5-dihydroxytere-phthalic acid),was fabricated and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,IR,powder X-ray diffraction,X-ray diffraction,and elemental analysis.Complex 1 displays a 1D chain structure,and belongs to P1 group.The solid-state luminescent spectrum of 1 showed an emission band with the maximum at 508 nm(λex=408 nm).It exhibited the emission characteristic of the H_(4)dhtp ligand.The fluorescence of 1 in water displayed the stron-gest intensity.In detecting various metal ions,adding Zr^(4+)led to a blue shift in fluorescence,accompanied by an increase in intensity,whereas the presence of Fe^(3+)resulted in a decrease in luminescence.The changes observed in the IR spectrum indicate an interaction between Fe^(3+)/Zr^(4+)and complex 1,resulting in the variation of luminescence properties.
文摘With the aim to effectively depolymerize polyethylene terephthalate(PET)under mild reaction conditions,PET methanolysis and dimethyl terephthalate(DMT)hydrolysis are integrated in a catalyst system.Firstly,methanolysis of PET to DMT is achieved over Cu-Mg-Al oxide catalyst.Next,terephthalic acid(TPA)is prepared by DMT hydrolysis.It is found that hydrolysis of DMT to TPA can be promoted by introducing trace amount of water in this catalyst system.CuO-MgO-4.5Al_2O_(3)catalyst demonstrates the excellent catalytic performance for the depolymerization of PET with high conversion rate and TPA yield(100%and 99.5%,respectively)after reaction at 160℃for 6 h,which provides a new idea for the depolymerization of PET.
文摘Doping perylene diimide(PDI)into a polymer matrix is a simple strategy to prepare near-infrared(NIR)reflective materials,but the mechanical properties and NIR reflectance properties are significantly compromised due to macro-phase separation.In this study,a novel polymer(denoted as PU-PDI)with intrinsic NIR reflective proper⁃ties was synthesized by covalent incorporation of PDI units into polyurethane chains.Its photophysical characteris⁃tics,mechanical property and NIR reflectance property are investigated in detail.The results show that covalent in⁃corporation reduces the severe aggregation of PDI units,thereby endows PU-PDI with excellent mechanical property.The elongation at break of PU-PDI can reach more than 700%,and the breaking strength is 34.11 MPa.Moreover,compared to the blending system,PU-PDI possesses enhanced NIR reflection ability due to the better dispersion of PDI units.

文摘In this study,the catalysis function of Na_(2)CO_(3) to the structural properties of xylan char was well investigated with Na_(2)CO_(3) on,and the electrochemical performance of xylan char as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries was tested.The characterization of X-ray microscopy and scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the morphological structure of xylan char was altered due to the addition of Na_(2)CO_(3) catalyst.The increasement of the Na_(2)CO_(3)/xylan ratio resulted in a slenderization of the triangular prism shape of the char skeleton and a reduction in porosity.X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that Na_(2)CO_(3) promoted the growth of the(004)crystal plane of graphite during xylan pyrolysis,while inhibiting the formation of the(100/101)crystal planes.Raman spectroscopy analysis indicated that the presence of Na_(2)CO_(3)had changed the graphitization degree of xylan char.Electrochemical tests further showed that char prepared with a Na_(2)CO_(3)/xylan mass ratio of 1∶1 exhibited the highest sodium storage capacity.This study provides a pathway for the rational design carbon materials derived from xylan for future applications in energy storage devices.

文摘Under the condition of solvothermal synthesis,the viologen ligand 1,1′-bis(3-carboxyphenyl)-(4,4′-bipyri-dine)dichloride(H_(2)bcbpy·2Cl)and KI are coordinated with the metal cadmium ions.A case of thermochromic coor-dination polymer[Cd(bcbpy)I_(2)]·2H_(2)O(1)was constructed.Complex 1 displays a 1D chain structure and exhibits thermochromic behavior.Under different temperature stimulation,the complex(ground)slowly changed from green to yellow-green,and with the increase of temperature,the color of complex 1 gradually deepened,and finally became orange-yellow.Therefore,complex 1 was prepared as a thermochromic film.In addition,we also performed electrochemical tests on complex 1,which showed that the complex is a semiconductor material.CCDC:2391802.

文摘The sodium-iodine(Na-I)battery exhibits significant potential as an alternative energy storage device to the lithium-ion battery.However,its development is hindered by inadequate electrical and thermal stability,as well as the dissolution and shuttling of polyiodide.In this study,we report a preparation method for melamine carbon sponge(MC)via carbonizing a commercially available kitchen sponge.It was revealed that the as-prepared MC,composed of unique self-growing carbon nanotubes,could provide both physical and chemical adsorption capabilities for intermediate polyiodides to improve the electrochemical performance of NaI.Consequently,the NaI/MC electrode effectively minimized polyiodide dissolution and reduced the electrochemical impedance.The NaI/MC cathode demonstrated a high average discharge capacity of 92.75 mAh·g^(–1)over 200 cycles while maintaining a coulombic efficiency of 94%.The research findings from our study have promising applications in Na-I batteries.

文摘This study aims to enhance the photocatalytic performance of 2D/2D heterojunctions for NO removal from marine vessel effluents.SnS_(2)/g-C_(3)N_(4) composites were successfully constructed via a facile solvothermal method,demonstrating a significant improvement in photocatalytic NO removal under visible light irradiation.For high-flux simulated flue gas,the composite with 10%SnS_(2)(denoted as SNCN-10)showed exceptional NO removal efficiency,reaching up to 66.8%,along with excellent reusability over five consecutive cycles.Detailed band structure and density of states(DOS)calculations confirmed the formation of a characteristic heterojunction.Spin-trapping ESR spectroscopy identified·O_(2)^(-)−as the key reactive species driving NO oxidation.Additionally,in situ DRIFT spectroscopy revealed that SNCN-10 facilitated the conversion of NO to nitrate through intermediate species,including bridging nitrite and cis-nitrite(N_(2)O_(2)^(2-)).Kinetic studies further indicated that NO oxidation followed the Langmuir-Hinshelwood(L-H)mechanism.Based on density functional theory(DFT)calculations of free energy changes,a comprehensive reaction pathway for NO oxidation was proposed.These findings provide valuable insights for the development of efficient photocatalytic strategies for NO removal.
