Biomass-Based N, P, and S Self-Doped Porous Carbon for High-Performance Supercapacitors
Biomass-based
hierarchically porous carbon is green and eco-friendly,
which exhibits a wide potential for energy storage due to its large
specific surface area and multiheteroatoms codoping. Herein, nitrogen
(N), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S) self-doped hierarchically porous
carbon (N–P–S-HPC) has been prepared by a one-step method
from a peanut meal for the first time. The as-prepared N–P–S-HPC
possesses a typical hierarchically porous framework (micropores, mesopores,
and macropores) with an extremely large specific surface area (2090
m2 g–1) and N (11.2 atomic %), P (0.82
atomic %), and S (0.64 atomic %) doping. N–P–S-HPC as
an electrode for supercapacitors displays an ultrahigh specific capacitance
of 525 F g–1 (1 A g–1) with the
contributions of electrical double layer capacitance (EDLC) and pseudocapacitance
(PC). Remarkably, the capacitance retention of N–P–S-HPC
reaches up to 68% (10 A g–1). The N–P–S-HPC//N–P–S-HPC
symmetrical supercapacitor delivers a maximum energy density (24.9
Wh kg–1 at 400 W kg–1). After
6000 cycles at 300 mV s–1, the capacitance loss
is only 10%, indicating excellent cycling stability of the peanut
meal converted N–P–S-HPC, which enables it to be a promising
candidate for energy storage and renewable delivery devices
Effect of Ash on Coal Combustion Performance and Kinetics Analysis
In order to explain the influence of the coal ash on the combustion characteristics of coal, the physical and chemical structures of pulverized coal with different ash contents were compared and analyzed, and the combustion characteristics and kinetics of pulverized coal were systematically studied by non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis. The results show that the physical and chemical structure of the deashed coal is not significantly changed compared with the raw coal. The combustion process of the deashed coal gradually moves to the high temperature zone, and the combustion performance is obviously weakened. The comprehensive combustion characteristic parameters of the three samples can be arranged as: raw coal > primary deashed coal > secondary deashed coal. In this study, the RNGM model was used to analyze the combustion kinetics of pulverized coal, and the fitting effect is good. And there is a significant kinetic compensation effect in the combustion process. After calculation, the activation energy value of the samples is between 16.15~29.51 kJ/mol. The RNGM model can effectively characterize the various stages of the combustion reaction and validate the experimental results.</p

Antipermeability Strategy to Achieve Extremely High Specificity and Ultralong Imaging of Diverse Cell Membranes Based on Restriction-Induced Emission of AIEgens
Long-term in situ cell membrane-targeted bioimaging
is of great significance for studying specific biological processes
and functions, but currently developed membrane probes are rarely
simultaneously used to image the plasma membrane of animal and plant
cells, and these probes lack sufficiently high long-term targeting
ability. Herein, we proposed an antipermeability strategy to achieve
highly specific and long-term imaging of plasma membranes of both
human and plant cells using the steric hindrance effect and restriction-induced
emission of AIE-active probes based on an updated membrane model.
A certain degree of rigidity of plasma membrane containing a large
ratio of rigid cholesterol molecules in the updated membrane model
provides a promising opportunity to design antipermeable probes by
introducing a rigid steric hindrance group in the probe. The designed
antipermeable probes can anchor inside plasma membrane for a long
term relying on the combination of the steric hindrance effect and
the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between the probe and
the membrane, as well as light up the membrane via the restriction-induced
emission mechanism. The excellent performance in imaging completeness
and specificity for both human cells and plant cells clearly shows
that these designed probes possess outstanding antipermeability to
achieve long-term specific imaging of membrane. These probes also
show some advanced features such as ultrafast staining, wash-free
merit, favorable biocompatibility, good photostability, and effective
resistance to viscosity and pH alteration. This work also provides
a valuable design principle for membrane probes of plant cells that
the designed probes require a suitable molecular size favoring the
penetration of small pores of cell walls
