Different methods have been used to identify polymers, but they are often costly and time-consuming. One of the uncomplicated and worthwhile methods is chromatic sensor. This study demonstrates polydiacetylene (PDA)-based colorimetric sensors for detecting various polymers such as poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(ethylene succinate), poly(propylene carbonate), and aliphatic polyesters. Preparation of the sensors utilizes simple mixing of PDA/zinc(II) ion/zinc oxide nanocomposites and cationic surfactants in organic solvents. Results show that the structures of organic solvents and cationic surfactants strongly affect the sensitivity to specific polymers. Furthermore, the sensors can distinguish polymers with different functional groups. The colorimetric detection of polymers at different concentrations can be achieved by varying the concentration of cation surfactants. The colorimetric sensors is versatile and low-cost, suitable for real-life applications. Our results provide a new developing path of PDA-based colorimetric sensors for qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis of various polymers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18265,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research Bulletin","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 113500"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143864537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the experimental results, it was found that the addition of pulse current reduces the dislocations pile-up in the material, promotes dynamic recrystallization, and thus improves the plasticity of the material. To further investigate the effect of electric field on nickel-based superalloy GH4169, the first principles calculation method was used to analyze the influence law of electric field on the phase structure of Ni- γ Phase, AlNi₃- γʹ, NbNi₃- γ″. The simulation results show that the application of an electric field reduces the shear modulus and Young's modulus of the material, making it prone to deformation, which is consistent with the results of the pulse current assisted compression experiment. Finally, based on the dislocation thermal activation theory and the Johnson-Cook constitutive model, the energy obtained by dislocations from free electrons and magnetic fields was analyzed.

Fungi act as highly efficient nano-biofactories due to their ability to produce a wide range of bioactive metabolites and enzymes that facilitate the green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) with unique optical, structural, and functional properties. Herein, a <em>Trichoderma virens</em> filtrate was utilized for the bioengineering of a nanoconjugate (NC). A copper oxide/silver oxide-grafted graphene oxide NC (CuO/Ag₂O@GO) was synthesized by grafting GO with the fungal-engineered CuO and Ag₂O NPs in a one-pot reaction using 20 mM of CuSO₄·5H₂O and AgNO₃. The optical, structural, and morphological characteristics of the CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC were thoroughly analyzed. X-ray diffraction showed the formation of diamond carbon with a cubic crystal system, with monoclinic tenorite CuO and cubic Ag₂O. The average crystallite size of the NC was 21.02 nm. The presence of Cu K, Ag L, O K, and C K was confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. The average hydrodynamic size of the synthesized NC was 204.4 nm. The zeta potential analysis of the CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC was measured to be +10.1 mV, confirming its good stability. The respective D and G bands of the CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC occurred at wave numbers of 1369 and 1580 cm⁻¹. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy validated the electron-binding affinity of CuO, Ag₂O, and GO. A Tauc plot was studied using data from a UV–Vis-DRS spectrophotometer, from which the optical band gap was estimated as 2.57 eV. The surface plasmon resonance λ_max characteristic peaks of GO were observed at 236 and 300 nm, with an absorption band at 450 nm characteristic of the CuO and Ag₂O NPs. The CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC demonstrated excellent inhibitory activity against a broad spectrum of pathogenic bacteria using Kirby−Bauer disk diffusion antibacterial testing. For environmental applications, the CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC displayed efficient peroxymonosulfate-assisted degradation of Congo red with removal efficiencies averaging around 70 % for the initial concentration range of 20–50 ppm. The findings revealed the potency and remarkable performance of the CuO/Ag₂O@GO NC for environmental applications. Several avenues for future research can further enhance the utility of this composite and address existing challenges by optimizing its synthesis, understanding its mechanisms of action, and exploring its potential in diverse fields.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18265,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research Bulletin","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 113496"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143848207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
