Abstract
Polylactic acid (PLA) nonwovens, recognized as eco-friendly substitutes for petroleum-based synthetic fibers, face a significant challenge due to their inherent flammability. This work addresses this concern by synthesizing a hyperbranched polyphosphoramide flame retardant (TPDT) through a one-step polycondensation process without using solvent and catalyst. TPDT is subsequently applied to PLA nonwovens using a dip-pad finishing technique. Notably, with a mere 7 wt% weight gain of TPDT, the PLA nonwovens exhibit a substantial increase in the limited oxygen index (LOI) value, reaching 32.3 %. Furthermore, the damaged area in the vertical burning test is reduced by approximately 69.2 %. In the cone calorimeter test, 17 wt% weight gain of TPDT results in a 51.4 % decrease in peak heat release rate and a 56.0 % reduction in total heat release compared to the control PLA. Additionally, char residue increases from 1.5 wt% to 31.1 wt% after combustion. The strong affinity between TPDT and PLA molecules persists even after repeated abrasion, ensuring sustained flame retardancy. Importantly, the introduction of TPDT also imparts increased softness to the PLA nonwovens. This work addresses this concern by synthesizing a hyperbranched polyphosphoramide flame retardant (TPDT) through a solvent-free, catalyst-free, and one-step polycondensation process.

Abstract
Various polymer substrates have their particular combustion features, therefore, developing an effective universal flame retardant strategy for various polymer substrates is of great practical importance. Meanwhile, as substitutes for petroleum-based products, bio-based flame retardants and biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) meet the requirements of sustainable development. In this work, a fully bio-based flame retardant coating (PAGS) was prepared using phytic acid (PA) and guanosine (GS). PAGS was used as a universal flame retardant coatings for polylactic acid (PLA) fabrics and other substrates, including cotton fabrics, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabrics, polyamide (PA) fabrics, polyurethane (PU) foams, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films, and woods. The PAGS-treated substrates were able to self-extinguish and eliminate molten droplets. Similarly, the PAGS coating significantly suppressed the heat release of each substrate. The P-containing free radicals in the gas phase were able to interact with highly reactive H, HO and alkyl radicals, blocking the chain reaction during combustion. The flammable gas density was also diluted by nonflammable gases. The formed continuous porous and dense intumescent char layer hindered heat and oxygen. It is suggested that this work provides a simple and efficient flame retardant strategy for improving the fire safety of various polymer substrates.

Abstract
Developing multifunctional biodegradable PLA with ignition delay, high efficient fire retardancy, and UV resistance properties is a challenging task owing to its high flammability, and mutually exclusive phenomenon between the latter two properties. In this work, we report a superior efficient synergistic action combining piperazine pyrophosphate (PAPP) and a Co based metal-organic framework (ZIF-67). Results illustrated that with merely 0.06 wt% ZIF-67, intumescent PLA containing 4.96 wt% PAPP reached UL-94 V0 rating. The PLA/4.9PAPP/0.1MOF sample possessed a limiting oxygen index (LOI) value at 33 %, exhibited a 28 % reduction in peak heat release rate (pHRR) and a 67 % increase in fire propagation index (FPI). Moreover, the presence MOF delayed the ignition time of PLA by 12 s due to the highly porous structure of MOF and its chemical heat-sink performance. Insightful reaction to fire mechanism in the condensed phase via TG-FTIR and Raman revealed that a crack free protective intumescent char layer with higher graphitization degree was formed, which effectively enhanced the barrier effect and minimize the heat and fuel transfer. In addition, the UV resistance of PLA composites is enhanced, remaining at and below 5 % transmittance in the UVA and UVB areas. This work provides a green production way of multifunctional degradable materials and broadens their application fields.

Abstract
The large-scale application of ecofriendly polymeric materials has become a key focus of scientific research with the trend toward sustainable development. Mechanical properties and fire safety are two critical considerations of biopolymers for large-scale applications. Polylactic acid (PLA) is a flammable, melt-drop carrying, and strong but brittle polymer. Hence, it is essential to achieve both flame retardancy and mechanical enhancement to improve safety and broaden its application. This study reviews the recent research on the flame retardant functionalization and mechanical reinforcement of PLA. It classifies PLA according to the type of the flame retardant strategy employed, such as surface-modified fibers, modified nano/micro fillers, small-molecule and macromolecular flame retardants, flame retardants with fibers or polymers, and chain extension or crosslinking with other flame retardants. The functionalization strategies and main parameters of the modified PLA systems are summarized and analyzed. This study summarizes the latest advances in the fields of flame retardancy and mechanical reinforcement of PLA.

Abstract
Flexible polyurethane foam (FPUF) is widely used in our life, but it is inherent flammable. The demand for environmental-friendly multi-functional FPUF has been increasing rapidly in the last decade. In this work, a novel bio-based flame retardant coating was constructed by chemically reacting sodium alginate (OSA) and polydopamine (PDA) on the FPUF, followed by depositing nanorod-like β-FeOOH molecules through complexation reaction to form a biomimetic structure. The limiting oxygen index of the coated FPUF samples reached 25.5%. The peak heat release rate was reduced by 45.0%, and the smoke density of the coated sample was decreased by 69.1% compared to that of the control FPUF sample. It was proposed that the OSA-PDA-β-FeOOH decomposed during combustion to promote the formation of compact crosslinked char and released inert gases to dilute the combustible gases, and the β-FeOOH transferred to Fe2O3 to settled the smoke particles reducing the smoke release. Furthermore, the coating with shark skin like structure endowed FPUF antibacterial ability because of its good superoleophobicity underwater. This work provided a novel strategy to construct a biomimetic multifunctional coating on the FPUF.

Abstract
Phosphating sesbania gum (DESG) was obtained by modifying sesbania gum (SG) with 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO) and endic anhydride (EA). The structure of DESG was determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR). Flame-retardant polylactic acid (PLA) composites were prepared by melt-blending PLA with DESG, which acted as a carbon source, and ammonium polyphosphate (APP), which acted as an acid source and a gas source. The flame retardancy of the PLA composite was investigated using vertical combustion (UL-94), the limiting oxygen index (LOI) and the cone calorimeter (CONE) test. Thermal properties and morphology were characterized via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), respectively. Experimental results indicated that when the mass ratio of DESG/APP was equal to 12/8 the LOI value was 32.2%; a vertical burning test (UL-94) V-0 rating was achieved. Meanwhile, the sample showed a lowest total heat release (THR) value of 52.7 MJ/m2, which is a 32.5% reduction compared to that of neat PLA. Using FESEM, the uniform distribution of DESG and APP in the PLA matrix was observed. The synergistic effect of DESG and APP effectively enhanced the flame retardancy of PLA. Additionally, the synergistic mechanism of DESG and APP in PLA was proposed.

Speciation and transformation of nitrogen for swine manure thermochemical liquefaction. Sci Rep 2022; 12:12056.

Abstract
The nitrogen conversion mechanism of swine manure by thermochemical liquefaction with ethanol as solvent was investigated at a lower temperature range (180–300 °C). The fate of nitrogen in liquid phase products, bio-oil and biochar was evaluated by XPS, GC–MS and other methods. After thermochemical liquefaction, most of the nitrogen in swine manure was transferred to biochar (63.75%). As the temperature increased to 220 °C, the biochar-N yields decreased to 43.29%, accompanied by an increase in bio-oil-N and liquid phase product-N by 7.99% and 1.26% respectively. The results indicated that increasing the temperature could facilitate solid nitrogen structure cracking into bio-oil-N. Amines and heterocyclic nitrogen from protein peptide bond cracking and Maillard reactions made up the main nitrogen compounds in bio-oil, and high temperatures favored the further cyclization and condensation of heterocyclic nitrogen (e.g., indole, quinoline). In the case of biochar, the inorganic nitrogen disappeared at 260 °C and was obviously transformed into liquid phase products. The rising temperature promoted the polymerization of pyridine nitrogen and pyrrole nitrogen, which formed more stabilized nitrogen formation (such as quaternary nitrogen). Nitrogen conversion and possible reaction schematics during swine manure thermochemical liquefaction were explored in this study.

Abstract
Light metal hydrolysis for hydrogen supply is well suited for portable hydrogen fuel cells. The addition of catalysts can substantially aid Mg hydrolysis. However, there is a lack of clear catalytic mechanism to guide the design of efficient catalysts. In this work, the essential role of nanosized catalyst (Ni3 Fe/rGO) in activating micro-sized Mg with ultra-rapid hydrolysis process is investigated for the first time. Here, an unprecedented content of 0.2 wt% Ni3 Fe/rGO added Mg can release 812.4 mL g-1 hydrogen in just 60 s at 30 °C. Notably, an impressive performance with a hydrogen yield of 826.4 mL g-1 at 0 °C in only 30 s is achieved by the Mg-2 wt% Ni3 Fe/rGO, extending the temperature range for practical applications of hydrolysis. Moreover, the four catalysts (Ni3 Fe/rGO, Ni3 Fe, Ni/rGO, Fe/rGO) are designed to reveal the influence of composition, particle size, and dispersion on catalytic behavior. Theoretical studies corroborate that the addition of Ni3 Fe/rGO accelerates the electron transfer and coupling processes and further provides a lower energy barrier diffusion path for hydrogen. Thus, a mechanism concerning the catalyst as migration relay is proposed. This work offers guidelines designing high-performance catalysts especially for activating the hydrolysis of micro-sized light weight metals.

Abstract
The chitosan (CS) transparent film has attracted much attention in food and medicine packaging areas due to their biodegradability and good availability. A novel carbon quantum dots compound containing nitrogen and phosphorus (NP-CQDs) was obtained by reacting citric acids, with urea and phytic acids. The density of the film was increased, and the water vapor permeation was reduced by the presence of NP-CQDs. The introduction of 4 wt% NP-CQDs increased the water contact angle of the CS film from 79.2° to 105.8°. The shielding on UV-A and UV-B transmittance was increased with the NP-CQDs loading. The film containing 4 wt% NP-CQDs blocked more than 90.2% UV-A and 96.5% UV-B; however, it only blocked 26.8% visible light. It also exhibited better antibacterial activity to both E. coli and S. aureus than the control CS film. This work provided a feasible way to prepare multifunctional bio-safe film.

Abstract
In this study, a novel bio-based flame retardant LC-PA is prepared by the Mannich reaction between phytic acid (PA) and L-citrulline (LC). LC-PA is combined with tannic acid (TA) and introduced into PLA to improve fire performance and accelerate biodegradability. Compared with control PLA, the PLA composite containing 10% LC-PA/TA increases the LOI value to 26.9%, reaches a V-0 rating in the UL-94 test, and reduces the peak heat release rate and total heat release by 24.5% and 21.1%, respectively. More importantly, the introduction of LC-PA/TA accelerates the degradation rate of PLA in soil, which is of significance for biodegradable materials. The addition of LC-PA/TA can attract water and provide a suitable energy source for microbial proliferation, accelerating the hydrolysis and microbial degradation of PLA. This work provides a practical approach for high flame retardancy and rapid biodegradability in the soil to the bio-based polymer.

Mechanism on redistribution synthesis of dichlorodimethylsilane by AlCl 3/ZSM-5(3T)@γ-Al 2O 3 core-shell catalyst. J Mol Model 2021; 27:255. [PMID: 34410509 DOI: 10.1007/s00894-021-04859-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
The redistribution method plays an important role in addressing the issue of organosilicon by-products in the direct synthesis of dichlorodimethylsilane, and the redistribution mechanism is still a topic of debate. The redistribution mechanism by the ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 core-shell catalyst and post-modified AlCl3/ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 catalyst was technically performed using the Density functional theory (DFT) at the level of B3LYP/6-311 + + G(3df,2pd). The results show that no. 1 active site of ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 core-shell structure has a significant effect on the activity of the catalyst. Indicating that the active center involved in the reaction is H provided by the Al-O-H bond, which is an obvious catalytic active center of Bronsted acid. Furthermore, the post-modified AlCl3/ZSM-5(3T)@γ-Al2O3 catalyst is in more favor of redistribution reaction comparing with the ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 core-shell catalyst. It ascribes to the robust Lewis site of aluminum chloride favorable modification. The redistribution synthesis mechanism of dichlorodimethylsilane on the ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 core-shell catalyst and post-modified AlCl3/ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 catalyst had been investigated by using the Density functional theory (DFT) method at the level of B3LYP/6-311 + + G(3df,2pd). The former active center was Bronsted acidic center, while the latter one was Lewis acidic center, ascribing to the Lewis site of aluminum chloride favorable modification. The catalytic activity of the post-synthesis AlCl3/ZSM-5(3 T)@γ-Al2O3 catalyst completely was consistent with experimental results.

Abstract
Currently, polymers are competing with metals and ceramics to realize various material characteristics, including mechanical and electrical properties. However, most polymers consist of organic matter, making them vulnerable to flames and high-temperature conditions. In addition, the combustion of polymers consisting of different types of organic matter results in various gaseous hazards. Therefore, to minimize the fire damage, there has been a significant demand for developing polymers that are fire resistant or flame retardant. From this viewpoint, it is crucial to design and synthesize thermally stable polymers that are less likely to decompose into combustible gaseous species under high-temperature conditions. Flame retardants can also be introduced to further reinforce the fire performance of polymers. In this review, the combustion process of organic matter, types of flame retardants, and common flammability testing methods are reviewed. Furthermore, the latest research trends in the use of versatile nanofillers to enhance the fire performance of polymeric materials are discussed with an emphasis on their underlying action, advantages, and disadvantages.
