Enhanced Selective Oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid over Pt–Au/XC Bimetallic Catalysts

The catalytic valorization of biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) provides an important route toward sustainable chemical production. Herein, we report a bimetallic Pt1Au1 catalyst supported on Vulcan XC-72R carbon (Pt1Au1/XC) that enables efficient aerobic oxidation of...

Stepwise stabilization of low-melting constituents enables grain refinement and overburning suppression in highly alloyed Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys

High-strength Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys require high-temperature solution treatment to increase solute supersaturation, but severe Zn/Mg/Cu segregation and low-melting eutectic constituents make them highly vulnerable to overburning. Here, a multi-stage solution treatment (MST: 450/2h +...

Deciphering the landscape of human pathogenome in non-typhoidal Salmonella through multidimensional genomics

Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) is a leading foodborne pathogen causing severe gastrointestinal and systemic infections, posing a significant global health burden. This study employed a genomic approach to investigate the functional and distribution characteristics of human pathog...

Surface and structural characteristics of cast NiTi alloy impacted by submerged cavitating waterjet

The NiTi alloy has great application potential in the engineering fields involving cavitation. The present study aims to reveal variations in surface and structure characteristics of the NiTi alloy subjected to submerged waterjet. Effects of the standoff distance and cavitation t...

A Comprehensive Assessment Framework for the Sustainable Ecological Carrying Capacity of Chinese Cities Based on Time-Series Uncertainty and Interval-Valued Fermatean Fuzzy Sets

The assessment of sustainable ecological carrying capacity (SECC) serves as a crucial scientific foundation for supporting high-quality urbanization, advancing ecological civilization, and achieving the strategic goals of the “Dual Carbon” initiative. However, existing assessment...

Abstract Supercapacitors are valued for high power density and long cycle life, yet their low energy density remains a key challenge. Multi-metallic selenides, which are characterized by their extensive redox chemistry and high electrical conductivity, have been identified as a p...

CM-YOLO: an improved YOLOv8 for defect detection and classification of CFRP composites using infrared thermography

Driven by the pursuit of higher operating efficiency and better structural safety, carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are widely adopted in critical aerospace structural components. Infrared thermography has emerged as a powerful non-destructive technique for subsu...

Association of D-dimer/Lymphocyte ratio with severity in acute pancreatitis: a cross-sectional study

The D-dimer/lymphocyte ratio (DLR) reflects coagulation activation and immune status, but its association with the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between DLR and AP severity. This cross-sectional study include...

Strategies for the Integration of Multifunctional Thermal Management Materials: A Review

Abstract The rapid development of high-power electronics, flexible devices, and advanced energy systems has created a growing demand for thermal management materials that combine heat dissipation with additional functions such as electrical insulation, electromagnetic interferenc...

Financial inclusion and multidimensional poverty alleviation: the moderating role of governance efficiency in Asian countries

<title>Abstract</title> Persistent multidimensional poverty across Asia reflects systemic inequalities in economic participation, where financial exclusion exacerbates deprivation in health, education, and living standards. While financial inclusion is widely advocated for povert...

From S2 to RP2: The non-orientable Schwarzschild spacetime

Einstein's field equations are local, so they retain their standard form on non-orientable manifolds, but the global structure of the solution need not be the same. We show that the orientability assumption in Hawking's horizon topology theorem is not redundant: dropping it produ...
