Recently, single atom catalysts (SAcs) with isolated metal atom as the active site have received extensive attention for their excellent catalytic performance. However, limited by the strong aggregation tendency of monometallic atoms, the construction of SAcs remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we developed a facile ternary copolymerization-pyrolysis approach to synthesize a single cobalt atom catalyst (co1@Nc) by employing amino-functionalized cobalt phthalocyanine (coPc(NH2)4) as the metal precursor. Specially, coPc(NH2)4 was copolymerized with melamine and 1,4-phthalaldehyde to yield a terpolymer, thereby allowing coPc to be more uniformly and stably distributed in the polymer network. Subsequently, the obtained terpolymer was pyrolyzed to afford co1@Nc. Aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (Ac HAADF-STEM) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) directly confirmed that the catalyst co1@Nc was a single cobalt atom catalyst. Furthermore, the large specific surface area (SBET = 418.8 m2/g) and high cobalt content (2.71 wt%) of co1@Nc provided more cobalt active sites and therefore displayed excellent catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene. In addition, the catalyst showed remarkable cyclic stability in five cycles and remained as the single atom catalyst.

This work explained about the hardness, density and tensile behavior of AMMcs and also recognizes the influence of cr 3 c 2 into AA7075 under casting process on their mechanical properties. The composites are obtained through stir casting process with 2.5, 5 and 7.5 wt% of cr 3 c 2 . It is observed that the mechanical properties of the composites are increased with increasing weight percentage of reinforced material. The results are analyzed with optical micro structural images. The optimum hardness and tensile strength were observed at 5 wt% cr 3 c 2 composite than other wt% of composites as well as monolithic base material.

The chinese translations of H. c. Andersen's tales date back more than 100 years. His tales have been extensively read by chinese readers and have provided rich resources and inspiration for chinese authors. Ultimately, Andersen's tales have achieved various forms of afterlife in china through translation and the reading of translated texts. At the same time, this afterlife has also enriched meanings of Andersen's tales that were not carried in their original texts. The original texts, their translations and the chinese modern literary works as post-texts have thus woven a net that meshes various types of intertextual relation created by translation practices. The present study will try to present these relations through textual analysis. In addition, through analysing the intertextual relations created by literary translation, this study also attempts to stimulate greater academic interest in the cultural and literary functions of translation, which are two of the important social functions that translation practices may fulfil.

Silicon (Si)-based materials are intensively pursued as the most promising anode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to their high theoretical mass-specificcapacity, moderate working potential, and high abundance in the earth's crust. Therefore, it has attracted widespread attention both from academia and industries. Despite the above advantages, the electrochemical performance is hampered by severe volume variation, resulting in poor cyclability and subsequently electrode failure. In this regard, nanostructured Si anodes and their composite electrodes might overcome these problems holding back the utilization of Si-based anodes in LIBs by providing facetious strain relaxation, short lithium diffusion distance, improved mass transport, and efficacious electrical contact. This review offers a holistic summary of chemistry, uniqueness, synthetic strategies, and practical applications of Si-based materials with a focus on presenting the development in the Si nanotubes, nanoparticles, nanowires, porous Si, SiOx, their composite materials with carbon, graphene cages, metals, and metal oxides as anode materials in LIBs. In the end, we present the research outlook for the development of Si/SiOx/c-based materials in the future, including fundamental design and various applications in addressing the challenges mentioned earlier.

BAcKGROUND Infection by the hepatitis c virus(HcV) is currently considered to be a global health issue, with a high worldwide prevalence and causing chronic disease in afflicted individuals. The disease largely involves the liver but it can affect other organs, including the skin. While leukocytoclastic vasculitis has been reported as one of the dermatologic manifestations of HcV infection, there are no reports of this condition as the first symptom of HcV recurrence after liver *** SUMMARY We report here a case of leukocytoclastic vasculitis in a liver transplant recipient on maintenance immunosuppression. The condition presented as a palpable purpura in both lower extremities. Blood and urine cultures were negative and all biochemical tests were normal, excepting evidence of anemia and hypocomplementemia. Imaging examination by computed tomography showed a small volume of ascites, diffuse thickening of bowel walls, and a small bilateral pleural effusion. Skin biopsy showed leukocytoclasia and fibrinoid *** biopsy was suggestive of HcV recurrence in the graft, and HcV polymerase chain reaction yielded 11460 copies/mL and identified the genotype as 1 A. Treatment of the virus with a 12-wk direct-acting antiviral regimen of ribavirin, sofosbuvir and daclatasvir led to regression of the symptoms within the first 10 d and subsequent complete resolution of the *** This case highlights the difficulties of diagnosing skin lesions caused by HcVinfection in immunosuppressed patients.

For an integer linear optimization (ILO) problem, persistency of its linear optimization (LO) relaxation is a property that for every optimal solution of the relaxation that assigns integer values to some variables, there exists an optimal solution of the ILO problem in which these variables retain the same values. Although persistency has been used to develop heuristic, approximation, and fixed-parameter algorithms for special cases of ILO, its applicability remains unknown in the literature. In this paper, we reveal a maximal subclass of ILO such that its LO relaxation has persistency. Specifically, we show that the LO relaxation of ILO on unit-two-variable-per-inequality (UTVPI) systems has persistency and is (in a certain sense) maximal among such ILO. Our result generalizes the persistency results by Nemhauser and Trotter, Hochbaum et al., and Fiorini et al. Even more, we propose a stronger property called neighborhood persistency and show that the LO relaxation of ILO on UTVPI systems in general has this property. Using this stronger result, we obtain a fixed-parameter algorithm (where the parameter is the optimal value) and another proof of 2-approximability for ILO on UTVPI systems where objective functions and variables are non-negative.
