Abstract
The interfacial and confined water have long been attractive objects due to their crucial roles in biological, geological processes, etc. In this paper, we investigate the hydrogen-bonded structures of water and their low temperature transitions in the subnano channels of AlPO4-11 for the first time on the basis of infrared spectroscopy. The number of the adsorbed water molecules is estimated to be 8.45 per channel in one unit cell by thermogravimetric analysis. It is found that the confined water molecules are involved in saturated and unsaturated coordination with different hydrogen bond strengths at ambient temperature. The former refers to ice-like four-coordinated water and the latter includes liquid-like structures, Al-coordinated and relatively free water molecules. Unique coordination between water molecules and framework Al sites is responsible for the ice-like structures in the channels above the ice melting point. The appearance of liquid-like structures is closely related to the strong channel confinement, which does not allow the formation of extensive tetrahedral hydrogen-bonded configuration. As temperature decreases, a structural transformation of confined water happens in the channels of AlPO4-11. Isolated small water oligomers and two new components with stronger hydrogen bonds, such as low-density amorphous ice-like structures and a kind of low-density liquid-like structures are preferred. Our results provide important insights into the structural organizations and thermal-dynamic behaviors of confined water in extreme narrow channels.

Abstract
Real-time monitoring of human health can be significantly improved by designing novel electronic skin (E-skin) platforms that mimic the characteristics and sensitivity of human skin. A high-quality E-skin platform that can simultaneously monitor multiple physiological and metabolic biomarkers without introducing skin discomfort or irritation is an unmet medical need. Conventional E-skins are either monofunctional or made from elastomeric films that do not include key synergistic features of natural skin, such as multi-sensing, breathability, and thermal management capabilities in a single patch. Herein, a biocompatible and biodegradable E-skin patch based on flexible gelatin methacryloyl aerogel (FGA) for non-invasive and continuous monitoring of multiple biomarkers of interest is engineered and demonstrated. Taking advantage of cryogenic temperature treatment and slow polymerization, FGA is fabricated with a highly interconnected porous structure that displays good flexibility, passive-cooling capabilities, and ultra-lightweight properties that make it comfortable to wear for long periods of time. It also provides numerous permeable capillary channels for thermal-moisture transfer, ensuring its excellent breathability. Therefore, the engineered FGA-based E-skin can simultaneously monitor body temperature, hydration, and biopotentials via electrophysiological sensors and detect glucose, lactate, and alcohol levels via electrochemical sensors. This work offers a previously unexplored materials strategy for next-generation E-skin platforms with superior practicality.

Perturbative vibration of the coupled hydrogen-bond (O:H-O) in water. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 310:102809.

Abstract
Perturbation Raman spectroscopy has underscored the hydrogen bond (O:H-O or HB) cooperativity and polarizability (HBCP) for water, which offers a proper parameter space for the performance of the HB and electrons in the energy-space-time domains. The OO repulsive coupling drives the O:H-O segmental length and energy to relax cooperatively upon perturbation. Mechanical compression shortens and stiffens the O:H nonbond while lengthens and softens the HO bond associated with polarization. However, electrification by an electric field or charge injection, or molecular undercoordination at a surface, relaxes the O:H-O in a contrasting way to the compression with derivation of the supersolid phase that is viscoelastic, less dense, thermally diffusive, and mechanically and thermally more stable. The HO bond exhibits negative thermal expansivity in the liquid and the ice-I phase while its length responds in proportional to temperature in the quasisolid phase. The O:H-O relaxation modifies the mass densities, phase boundaries, critical temperatures and the polarization endows the slipperiness of ice and superfluidity of water at the nanometer scale. Protons injection by acid solvation creates the H↔H anti-HB and introduction of electron lone pairs derives the O:⇔:O super-HB into the solutions of base or H2O2 hydrogen-peroxide. The repulsive H↔H and O:⇔:O interactions lengthen the solvent HO bond while the solute HO bond contracts because its bond order loss. Differential phonon spectroscopy quantifies the abundance, structure order, and stiffness of the bonds transiting from the mode of pristine water to the perturbed states. The HBCP and the perturbative spectroscopy have enabled the dynamic potentials for the relaxing O:H-O bond. Findings not only amplified the power of the Raman spectroscopy but also substantiated the understanding of anomalies of water subjecting to perturbation.

Abstract
Millions of waste plastic express packaging bags (PEPBs) were generated with the rapid development of the express delivery industry due to the boom of electronic commerce. Waste PEPBs contain polyethylene (PE) material and large number of pollutants such as plasticizers and flame retardants. In this study, two effective and environmental-friendly methods were proposed to produce valuable products and remove pollutants from waste PEPBs by supercritical water degradation (SCWD) and supercritical water partial oxidation (SCWPO) treatments. Both SCWD and SCWPO treatments could effectively obtain valuable products (wax, liquid oil, CaCO3) and remove bisphenol A (BPA) and di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) from waste PEPBs. No obvious difference about the conversion could be found between SCWD and SCWPO treatments. 425 °C, 60 min, solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:20 g/mL, and V(H2O2):V(H2O) ratio of 1:3 mL/mL were the optimal conditions for the conversion of waste PEPBs by SCWD and SCWPO treatments. The maximum conversion could reach 98.13%. The produced wax and liquid oil were easily separated from each other. The produced wax mainly included long-chain olefins or long-chain alkanes, and a small amount of alcohols, ethers and aldehydes. SCWD treatment was favorable for obtaining long-chain alkenes, while SCWPO treatment was favorable for obtaining long-chain alkanes. The main chemical compounds contained in the produced liquid oil were decomposed from DEHP and BPA. DEHP was decomposed to produce 2-ethyl-1-hexanol and acetophenone. BPA was decomposed to produce 4-tert-butylphenol and other alkylated derivatives of benzene and phenol. In comparison with SCWD treatment, DEHP and BPA could be decomposed more thoroughly by SCWPO treatment.

Abstract
Local stretching force constants derived from periodic local vibrational modes at the vdW-DF2 density functional level have been employed to quantify the intrinsic hydrogen bond strength of 16 ice polymorphs, ices Ih, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, XI, XII, XIII, XIV, XV, XVII, and XIX, that are stable under ambient to elevated pressures. Based on this characterization on 1820 hydrogen bonds, relationships between local stretching force constants and structural parameters such as hydrogen bond length and angle were identified. Moreover, different bond strength distributions, from uniform to inhomogeneous, were observed for the 16 ices and could be explained in relation to different local structural elements within ices, that is, rings, that consist of different hydrogen bond types. In addition, criteria for the classification of hydrogen bonds as strong, intermediate, and weak were introduced. The latter was used to explore a different dimension of the water-ice phase diagram. These findings will provide important guidelines for assessing the credibility of new ice structures.

Abstract
Deep engineering of liquid water by charge and impurity injection, charged support, current flow, hydrophobic confinement, or applying a directional field has becoming increasingly important to the mankind toward overcoming energy and environment crisis. One can mediate the processes or temperatures of molecular evaporation for clean water harvesting, HO bond dissociation for H2 fuel generation, solidification for living-organism cryopreservation, structure stiffening for bioengineering, etc., with mechanisms being still puzzling. We show that the framework of "hydrogen bonding and electronic dynamics" has substantiated the progress in the fundamental issues and the aimed engineering. The segmental disparity of the coupled hydrogen bond (O:HO or HB with ":" being lone pair of oxygen) resolves their specific-heat curves and turns out a quasisolid phase (QS, bound at -15 and 4 °C). Electrification shows dual functionality that not only aligns, orders, polarizes water molecules but also stretches the O:HO bond. The O:HO segmental cooperative relaxation and polarization shift the QS boundary through Einstein's relation, ΔΘDx ∝ Δωx, resulting in a gel-like, viscoelastic, and stable supersolid phase with raised melting point Tm and lowered temperatures for vaporization TV and ice nucleation TN. The supersolidity and electro structure ordering provide additional forces to reinforce Armstrong's water bridge. QS dispersion and the secondary effect of electrification such as compression define the TN for Dufour's electro-freezing. The TV depression, surface stress disruption, and electrostatic attraction raise Asakawa's molecular evaporability. Composition of opposite, compatible fields eases the HO dissociation and soil wetting. Progress evidences not only the essentiality of the coupled O:HO bond theory but also the feasibility of engineering water and solutions by programmed electrification.

Abstract
Charge transfer at interfaces plays a critical role in the performance of graphene based electronic devices. However, separate control of the charge transfer process in the graphene/SiO2 system is still challenging. Herein, we investigate the effects of the trapped interfacial icelike water layer on the charge transfer between graphene and the SiO2/Si substrate through recording the surface potential changes induced by partial removal of the interfacial icelike water layer upon in situ heating. The scanning Kelvin probe microscopy surface potential mapping shows that the graphene is electronically modified by the icelike water layer as the electron density transfers from graphene to the icelike water layer, resulting in hole-doping of graphene, which was also confirmed by the graphene field effect transistor electrical transport measurements. In addition, the density functional calculations provide in-depth insight into the electronic contributions of the icelike water layer to graphene and the charge transfer mechanism. This research will improve our ability to manipulate graphene's electronic properties for diverse applications, such as humidity sensing.

Abstract
The reaction of β-hydroxyethylation is essential to the current practice of organic chemistry. Here, we proposed a new and green route to synthesize 2-hydroxyethyl n-alkyl sulfide with n-alkyl mercaptan and ethylene carbonate (EC) in the presence of alkali carbonates as catalysts and revealed the mechanism by experiments and theoretical calculations. The reaction reported proceeds rapidly with high yields when it is performed at 120 °C and the catalytic loading is ∼1 mol%. This protocol is applicable to other mercaptans to synthesize the corresponding β-hydroxyethyl sulfide. Density functional theory-based calculations show the energy profile for the reaction pathway. The rate-determining step is the ring-opening of EC. A negatively charged O atom of alkali carbonates approaches the S atom of -SH under the influence of hydrogen bonds. An activated S atom that carries more negative charge serves as a nucleophilic reagent and assists in the ring-opening of EC by reducing the Mayer bond orders of the C1-O1 bond in EC. Alkali cations also contribute to the C1-O1 bond cleavage. The energy barrier for the ring-opening of EC decreases with the decrease of electronegativity of alkali cations. Subsequent transference of a H atom leads to the formation of β-hydroxyethyl sulfide, the dissociation of CO2 and the reduction of K2CO3.

Abstract
Water dissolves salt into ions and then hydrates the ions to form an aqueous solution. Hydration of ions deforms the hydrogen bonding network and triggers the solution with what the pure water never shows such as conductivity, molecular diffusivity, thermal stability, surface stress, solubility, and viscosity, having enormous impact to many branches in biochemistry, chemistry, physics, and energy and environmental industry sectors. However, regulations for the solute-solute-solvent interactions are still open for exploration. From the perspective of the screened ionic polarization and O:H-O bond relaxation, this treatise features the recent progress and a perspective in understanding the hydration dynamics of Hofmeister ions in the typical YI, NaX, ZX2, and NaT salt solutions (Y = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs; X = F, Cl, Br, I; Z = Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr; T = ClO4, NO3, HSO4, SCN). Phonon spectrometric analysis turned out the f(C) number fraction of bonds transition from the mode of deionized water to the hydrating. The linear f(C) ∝ C form features the invariant hydration volume of small cations that are fully-screened by their hydration H2O dipoles. The nonlinear f(C) ∝ 1 - exp.(-C/C0) form describes that the number insufficiency of the ordered hydrating H2O dipoles partially screens the anions. Molecular anions show stronger yet shorter electric field of dipoles. The screened ionic polarization, inter-solute interaction, and O:H-O bond transition unify the solution conductivity, surface stress, viscosity, and critical energies for phase transition.

Abstract
Glycine, the most fundamental amino acid, albeit studied for many decades, has kept researchers captivated with interesting structural variations relevant to important biological, astrophysical and technological applications. We report here a noticeable effect of deuteration on the three dimensional hydrogen bonding network of α-glycine using low temperature infrared absorption studies in a wide spectral range, corroborated with Raman scattering studies. These systematic studies in the range 300-4.2 K have demonstrated a relatively compact assembly of glycine molecules in the three dimensional bilayered structure of hydrogenated glycine (gly-h) at low temperatures. This is inferred from a remarkable temperature effect in the weak intra-bilayer hydrogen bond ~ along the b-axis, which strengthens upon cooling. A pronounced increase in the intensity of NH3 torsional and NH stretching modes has been observed. This is accompanied with a large rate of stiffening and softening respectively of these modes upon cooling and a change in slope across 210 K and 80 K. In contrast, the D---O hydrogen bond lengths in fully deuterated isotope (gly-d), as estimated using empirical correlation, show that the weak intra-bilayer hydrogen bond is not strengthened upon cooling down to 180 K, whereas the stronger intra-layer hydrogen bonds in the ac-plane become further strong. The ND3 torsional vibrations show no temperature effect. This implies a relatively stable two dimensional layered structure formed by strongly hydrogen bonded glycine sheets in the ac-plane. Below 180 K, similar qualitative trends have been obtained for the hydrogen bond lengths in the two isotopes. In addition, temperature induced variation of the characteristic "indicator" band of zwitterionic gly-h and gly-d has also been reported.

Abstract
Electrostatic polarization or molecular undercoordination endows the supersolidity by shortening and stiffening the H–O bond and lengthening and softening the O:H nonbond, deepening the O 1s energy level, and prolonging the photoelectron and phonon lifetime. The supersolid phase is less dense, viscoelastic, mechanically and thermally more stable, which offsets boundaries of structural phases and critical temperatures for phase transition of the coordination-resolved core–shell structured ice such as the ‘no man's land’ supercooling and superheating.

Abstract
H–O bond energy governs the PCx for Na/H2O liquid–VI–VII phase transition. Solute concentration affects the path of phase transitions differently with the solute type. Solute–solute interaction lessens the PC2 sensitivity to compression. The PC1 goes along the liquid–VI boundary till the triple phase joint.

Abstract
Repulsive force between the O-H bonding electrons and the O:H nonbonding pair within hydrogen bond (O-H:O) is an often overlooked interaction which dictates the extraordinary recoverability and sensitivity of water and ice. Here, we present a potential model for this hidden force opposing ice compression of ice VIII-X phase transition based on the density functional theory (DFT) and neutron scattering observations. We consider the H-O bond covalent force, the O:H nonbond dispersion force, and the hidden force to approach equilibrium under compression. Due to the charge polarization within the O:H-O bond, the curvatures of the H-O bond and the O:H nonbond potentials show opposite sign before transition, resulting in the asymmetric relaxation of H-O and O:H (O:H contraction and H-O elongation) and the H+ proton centralization towards phase X. When cross the VIII-X phase boundary, both H-O and O:H contract slightly. The potential model reproduces the VIII-X phase transition as observed in experiment. Development of the potential model may provide a choice for further calculations of water anomalies.

Abstract
Relaxation of the inter- and intra-molecular interactions for the hydrogen bond (O:H-O) between undercoordinated molecules determines the unusual behavior of water nanodroplets and nanobubbles. However, probing such potentials remains unreality. Here we show that the Lagrangian solution [Huang et al., J. Phys. Chem. B, 2013. 117: 13639] transforms the observed H-O bond (x = H) and O:H nonbond (x = L) lengths and phonon frequencies (dx, x) [Sun et al., J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2013. 4: 2565] into the respective force constants and bond energies (kx, Ex) and hence enables the mapping of the potential paths for the O:H-O bond relaxing with water cluster size. Results show that molecular undercoordination not only reduces the molecular size (dH) with enhanced H-O energy from the bulk value of 3.97 to 5.10 eV for a H2O monomer, but also enlarges the molecular separation (dL) with reduced O:H energy from 95 to 35 meV for a dimer. The H-O energy gain raises the melting point from bulk value 273 to 310 K for the skin and the O:H energy loss lowers the freezing temperature from bulk value 258 to 202 K for 1.4 nm sized droplet, by dispersing the quasisolid phase boundaries.
