Herein, an <em>in situ</em> hydrothermal growth strategy was put forward to prepare a novel self-supporting electrode, that is, Ni-based hydrogen phosphate polyhedrons supported on 3D Ni foam. This electrode was composed of crystalline (Ni(H₂PO₄)₂·2H₂O, Ni(H₃P₂O₇)₂·2H₂O), and amorphous phase in which NiO nanoparticles formed. The amorphous phase connected polyhedrons to the Ni foam substrate, forming multifarious heterogeneous interfaces. Such a structure possessed large number of active sites, favored the fast reaction kinetics and electron transport rate, synergistically resulting in a superior alkaline HER performance. In alkaline electrolyte, the electrode only needed a small overpotential of 69 mV to reach the current density of 10 mA cm⁻² with a small Tafel slope of 56 mV dec⁻¹, and exhibited a good stability at the current density of 100 mA cm⁻² for 50 h. This <em>in situ</em> hydrothermal growth strategy opened up a new route to green synthesis of cost-effective and stable 3D heterostructured self-supporting electrode for water-splitting.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101081,"journal":{"name":"Resources Chemicals and Materials","volume":"3 4","pages":"Pages 270-278"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143260374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Significant protein content was detected in <em>P. ostreatus</em> and <em>P. eryngii</em> carposomes grown on substrates with yeast extract (28.99 and 30.09%, <em>w/w</em>; WS and 29.49 and 24.94%, <em>w/w</em>; BOS). Although mushrooms presented a low lipid content in general, high values of fat content were observed for both species when cultivated on BOS substrate supplemented with sunflower and corn oil (4.54–6.58%, <em>w/w</em>). The nutritional value of mushrooms was comparable between the two flushes. The greatest amount of TPCs were detected in supplemented WS (22.31–35.30 mg gallic acid equivalents/g d.w.) and BOS (21.03–41.74 mg gallic acid equivalents/g d.w.) with CaSO₄⋅2H₂O, in all parts of mushrooms and a strong antioxidant activity and tocopherols production, in all treatments. A higher quantity of lipids, antioxidant activity and reducing power was present in the pilei rather than the stipes, while the latter were richer in IPSs, regardless of the supplement's presence.

The electrode material takes on great significance in determining the properties exhibited by the batteries. Zinc-based chalcogenides have served as the most suitable anode materials for their numerous raw material resources, low prices, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, the application of Zinc-based chalcogenides has been continuously hindered by sluggish diffusion kinetics, low electrical conductivity, as well as huge volume variation. Several effective strategies have been explored to settle the above matters (e.g., designing nanostructures, constructing carbon composite structures, as well as doping anions or cations to construct heterojunction). In this review, the recent advance of zinc-based chalcogenides (e.g., electrochemical mechanisms, challenges, and perspectives) are summarized.

The surface wettability, surface micro-morphology, and surface chemical composition of the coating was characterized, and the stability of the coating as well as the anti-icing properties were investigated. The results show that the SiO₂/PDMS/EP superhydrophobic coating sprayed on the Al-based surface has a contact angle of 163.3° and a sliding angle of 4°, and the coating maintains excellent superhydrophobicity at a low temperature of -15°. This coating can significantly delay the freezing time and temperature of droplets on its surface, reduce the shear force and natural deicing time required to remove surface ice, and exhibit excellent anti-icing performance. The excellent anti-icing durability of the coating was demonstrated by the icing-deicing cycle experiment. Subsequently, the anti-frosting performance was further investigated, and the results showed that it effectively slowed down the speed of frost formation. Therefore, the superhydrophobic coating fabricated in this study is suitable for a wide range of working conditions and has potential practicality.
