Consequently, depending on the reaction atmosphere, this photocatalyst selectively oxidizes HMF to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) with over 90% selectivity, or to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) with approximately 80% selectivity. Notably, by controlling the solvent to promote the desorption of the (CHOH)C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>2</sub>(CHO)∙ radical, this system also produces HMF dimers with about 89% selectivity, alongside simultaneous H<sub>2</sub> generation.

The corresponding mechanical response, microstructure evolution, and twinning behaviors were investigated, and the physical mechanism of the second-order behaviors (both the Swift and inverse Swift effects) was discussed. The results indicate that the two-stage deformation of reciprocating torsion is capable of activating tensile twins, effectively refining the surface grains, and thus improving the yield asymmetry.
