Article Abstract

This study investigates the use of porous structured carbon felt (CF) as a substrate for the preparation a lead dioxide (CF/PbO) anode for the electrochemical oxidation of Rhodamine B (RhB). Compared to traditional titanium-based lead dioxide (Ti/PbO) and graphite sheet-based lead dioxide (GS/PbO) anodes, the CF/PbO anode exhibited superior electrocatalytic activity, achieving a RhB degradation efficiency exceeding 99%. After 10 cycles, the electrocatalytic activity of CF/PbO anode remained robust, with a degradation efficiency of over 97%. Fluorescence spectroscopy, quenching experiments, and electrochemical tests indicate that the electrochemical oxidation behaviour on CF/PbO and GS/PbO anodes was governed by direct electron transfer, while indirect oxidation via OH radicals was pivotal for the Ti/PbO anode. LC-MS analysis identified the intermediates of RhB degradation, contributing to the proposed degradation pathway. This study provides an efficient anode for the electrochemical degradation of organic pollutants in water.

In this study, a novel titanium/zirconium‑tin oxide/alpha‑lead dioxide/beta‑lead dioxide (Ti/Zr-SnO/α-PbO/β-PbO) electrode was prepared and utilized for degrading alizarin yellow R (AYR) dye. The Integration of impregnation drying, drop coating with a solvent, and high-temperature pyrolysis significantly diminished the characteristic fissure morphology of conventional pyrolytic metal oxide interlayers, thereby modulating the electrodeposition process of alpha‑lead dioxide (α-PbO) and enhancing electrode stability and electrochemical performance. Electrode characterization revealed that the charge transfer resistance (R) was 88.

Renaissance Masters often prepared siccative oils by heating linseed oil with siccatives, particularly lead oxide, inducing partial saponification and altering its properties. Our reconstructions show that lead-saponified oils naturally separate into two phases. In this study, we investigate the differences between these two phases through a comprehensive set of analytical methods, from macrolevel assessments (rheology) to microlevel characterizations (small and wide-angle x-ray scattering, optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy) and chemical analyses.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Flap necrosis remains a major challenge in flap transplantation. Shegan, a traditional Chinese medicine, is known for its heat-clearing, detoxifying properties,blood-activating and removing blood stasis. Its principal bioactive compound, tectorigenin, has shown protective effects against skin damage, yet its influence on flap survival has not been fully elucidated.

The applicability of an electrochemical device with a series design and configuration, powered by photovoltaic panels, was tested as an integrated-hybrid approach for energy-efficient electrochemical green H production coupled with dye effluent upgrading. This electrochemical strategy investigated the electroconversion efficiencies of a model organic compound into carboxylic acids by applying 15, 30, and 45 mA cm, with simultaneous production of green H. Fluorine-doped lead oxide (PbO-F) and boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes were used as anodes in a three-compartment flow reactor, in series mode with different anodic order: setting 1 (PbO-F + BDD) and setting 2 (BDD + PbO-F).
