MnO2 powders with micro/nano spheres and microrods for supercapacitors were synthesized via a simple, quick and low-temperature hydrothermal method. Their preparation process was optimized by orthorhombic test and single factor experiment. The crystalline structure, surface morphology and supercapacitive properties of the as-prepared MnO2 powders were studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical measurement. Experimental results show that the optimal reaction conditions are the reaction temperature of 150°C, the KMnO4/MnCl2 molar ratio of 2.5: 1.0, the reaction time of 3 h, and the filling factor of 40%. Under the optimal conditions, the as-prepared MnO2 powders have typical α-MnO2 structure with hollow and porous micro/nano spheres and microrods. The α-MnO2 micro/nano sphere diameter is about from 0.2 to 0.8 μm, while the α-MnO2 microrods have the diameter of 30 nm and the length of 5 μm. The discharge specific capacitance of products at the 5th discharge cycle retains 255, 170, 133, 105 and 88 F·g-1 at current densities of 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 mA·g-1, respectively. Moreover, the values of equivalent series resistance and charge transfer resistance decrease to 0.37 Ω and 0.40 Ω, respectively.

Carbon-based films were synthesized by self-assembly of chitosan-encapsulated carbon microsphere (CMS@CS) composite. First, carbon microspheres (CMSs) prepared by chemical vapor deposition were modified by HNO3 and H2O2. Second, oxidized CMSs were modified by chitosan (CS). Finally, CMS@CS was self-assembled by vertical deposition, in which suspension concentration and deposition temperature on the quality of self-assembling film were investigated. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, and Fourier transformation infrared spectrometry were employed to characterize the morphology and structure of the samples. The results show that CMSs modified by CS had uniform particle size and good dispersion, CMS@CS was self-assembled into a dense film, the film thickened with increasing suspension concentration at fixed temperature, and more ordered film was obtained at 1 wt% of suspension concentration and 50 ℃. The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra show that the absorbance of CMS@CS film grew steadily with increasing suspension concentration and that the CMSs with oxygen-containing groups have a good assembling performance to form composite films with CS.

The effect of rolling and heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg3.5Y0.8Ca0.4Zr alloy was investigated. With the addition of 0.4Zr, the average grain size of the as-cast alloy was markedly refined to 5-10 μm. After hot rolling process, the grain size of Mg3.5Y0.8Ca0.4Zr alloy was refined further into 3-5 lain and the tensile strength was enhanced while the plasticity was degraded because the accumulation of rolling reduction increased the density oft-wins, and refined the grain structures. After the solution heat treatment at 743 K, the elongation of alloy was greatly enhanced from 3% to 17%.

The first principles study was performed on the stability of Ag adsorbed on the internal walls of single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and loaded on acid modified SWCNT. The calculation results show that Ag can be adsorbed stably on the internal walls of SWCNT. With the increase of SWCNT diameter, the adsorption energy increases in a certain range. Ag can also be loaded on the modified SWCNT surface in the form of COOAg and OAg groups, and COOAg group is more stable than OAg group. For either the adsorption on the inner SWCNT or the load on the modified SWCNT surface, only a small proportion of the Ag ions can be stably bonded to the walls of SWCNT.

A review is given of the Annual World Conference on Carbon, which was held on June 17–22, 2012 in Krakow, Poland and organized by the Polish Carbon Society. In this conference, 5 plenary lectures, 30 keynote lectures, 220 oral presentations and 465 posters were divided into 10 topics, i.e., carbons for energy storage; carbons for health and environmental protection; precursors, processing and technology; carbon nanomaterials; porous carbons; carbon-based composites; graphene; new methods for carbon characterization; computation and modeling; and industrial news. Besides traditional modification on surface area and porosity, doping with hetero atoms such as N, B and P or compositing with metals or metal oxides have been developed into effective means for modifying carbon materials for improved adsorption, catalysis and energy-storage performance. The applications of novel carbon structures like nanotubes are still limited by the controllable and scalable preparation, processability and reactivity. Research on the structure and properties of graphene is moving from curiosity-oriented to application-oriented. Mathematical formulation or modeling of pore structures has been promoted by the progress in characterization methods. The modification of the surface/interface in carbon materials, which plays important roles in determining their physical, chemical or mechanical properties is still a focus of research activity in carbon materials.

GaN nanomaterials are displaying infinite develop potential in blue light-emitting diode (LED).Therefore, the preparation of low-cost and high-powered GaN nonmaterial has been one of the focuses for scientific researchers. It is known that different catalysts have different impacts on the surface and function of GaN in the process of preparation. Therefore the proper catalysts must be selected to grow GaN nanostructure with high-quality and performance. In the present study, the effects of different catalysts on the surface and function of GaN have been summarized. Those catalysts includes Ni, In, Au, Ag, and so on. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of those catalysts have been overviewed.

Three Tb (III) complexes were synthesized using 2-aminobenzoic acid (HL) as primary ligand and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) and triphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO) as neutral ligand. The structure of the complexes was characterized with IR spectrum. The result shows that both amino and carboxyl were coordinated with Tb (III) ion, and Phen and TPPO were coordinated with Tb (III) ion. The luminescent properties were studied by UV-Vis absorption spectrometry and fluorescence spectrometry. Luminescent intensity has the order of Tb(L)3(TPPO)2>Tb(L)3 (H2O)2>Tb(L)3(Phen). The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and the singlet and triplet energy levels of ligands were calculated by quantum chemistry calculation. Energy transfer process was researched into the Tb (III) complexes with different neutral ligands.
