Catalytic Conversion of Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate to Terephthalic Acid

Against the backdrop of intensifying global plastic pollution and tightening resource and environmental constraints, the efficient recycling of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has become a critical enabler for realizing a circular plastics economy. This article systematica...

Synthesis and Catalytic Application of a Novel Recyclable Thermoregulated Phase-Transfer Phosphine Ligand

Organometallic complexes are widely used as efficient homogeneous catalysts in organic synthesis, but their recycling remains difficult. In this study, a novel LTRPT22-Pd(0) nanocatalyst with thermoregulated phase-transfer functionality was designed and synthesized, and its catal...

AC-UKAN: An enhanced U-KAN framework integrating modulated deformable convolution and mixed pooling

Accurate medical image segmentation is pivotal for clinical diagnosis. Segmentation targets in medical images differ in appearance, geometric morphology, and contextual organization, which motivates complementary architectural choices rather than a single universal mechanism. We...

Structural Associations of Digital Economy Components with Green Economic Efficiency in China

Digital transformation may improve productive efficiency while increasing energy and material demand. We examine its association with green economic efficiency (GEE) in a balanced panel of 30 Chinese provincial-level regions from 2012 to 2023. GEE is measured using an undesirable...

Multi-objective and cross-scale inverse design of temperature-control materials via physics-constrained machine learning

Abstract Temperature-control materials, notably composite phase-change materials (CPCMs), show great potential for the thermal management of next-generation power electronics. However, the synergistic optimization of multiple performance metrics still relies heavily on Edisonian...

Bifunctional Aloe-Birch Extracts for Green Silver Nanoparticle Synthesis and Synergistic Antimicrobial Microneedles Toward Infected Wound Healing

Plant-mediated green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) predominantly relies on single botanical sources, constraining reduction efficiency and forfeiting the therapeutic potential of residual biomass. This study employed aloe vera and birch bark extracts as reducing agent...

Complete mitochondrial genome assembly and comparative analysis of the endangered species Petrocosmea qinlingensis

Petrocosmea qinlingensis W. T. Wang (Gesneriaceae) is an endemic species from the Qinling Mountains of China . This species has a restricted distribution and a small population size and has been designated as a National Grade II Protected Plant in China. It has attracted taxonomi...

Current-Division-Aware Modeling and Detuning Design of a Receiver-Side LCC-Type Three-Coil Wireless Power Transfer System for Fixed-Frequency CC/CV Charging

To satisfy the constant-current/constant-voltage (CC/CV) charging requirements of electric-vehicle batteries, this paper investigates the extension of an established fixed-frequency reconfigurable three-coil wireless power transfer system using a modified receiver-side LCC-type n...

Study on surface integrity of IN718 cladding layer milled by micro texture tool

Purpose The IN718 cladding layer is prone to poor machined surface quality issues during processing due to its multi-phase heterogeneous microstructure, high hardness and high strength. This study aims to investigate high-quality machining methods for this material. Design/method...
