As a promising anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), cobalt sulfide ( CoS2) has attracted extensive attention due to its high theoretical capacity, easy preparation, and superior electrochemical activity. However, its intrinsic low conductivity and large volume expansion result in poor cycling ability. Herein, nitrogen-doped carbon-coated CoS2 nanoparticles (N–C@ CoS2) were prepared by a C3N4 soft-template-assisted method. Carbon coating improves the conductivity and prevents the aggregation of CoS2 nanoparticles. In addition, the C3N4 template provides a porous graphene-like structure as a conductive framework, affording a fast and constant transport path for electrons and void space for buffering the volume change of CoS2 nanoparticles. Benefitting from the superiorities, the Na-storage properties of the N–C@CoS2 electrode are remarkably boosted. The advanced anode delivers a long-term capacity of 376.27 mAh g− 1 at 0.1 A g− 1 after 500 cycles. This method can also apply to preparing other metal sulfide materials for SIBs and provides the relevant experimental basis for the further development of energy storage materials.

뷰티미용 기능성 화장품 소재로서 적양배추 잎의 열수와 80% EtOH 추출물의 유리아미노산과 단백질 비 구성 아미노산 유도체의 조성 및 함량을 분석하였다. 열수 추출물의 유리아미노산은 총 14종이 분리되었고, 총 38.37 mg/g 이었으며, 이중 proline이 24.6 mg/g으로 가장 많았다. 또한 필수 아미노산은 6종이 분리되 었고, 총 함량은 3.66 mg/g 이었으며, 이중 valine이 1.59 mg/g으로 가장 많았다. 80% EtOH추출물의 유리아미노산은 총 13종이 분리되었고, 총 17.92 mg/g 이었 으며, 이중 proline이 10.96 mg/g으로 가장 많았다. 필수 아미노산은 5종이 분리 되었고, 총 함량은 1.50 mg/g 이었으며, 이중 valine이 0.56 mg/g으로 가장 많았 다. 또한 열수 추출물의 비 구성 단백질 아미노산 유도체는 총 4종이 분리되었고, 총 1.59 mg/g 이었으며, 이중 ɤ-Aminobutyric acid가 0.99 mg/g으로 가장 많았 다. 80% EtOH 추출물의 경우, 총 2종이 분리되었고, 총 1.66 mg/g 이었으며, 이 중 ammonia가 0.96 mg/g으로 가장 많았다. 따라서 이와 같은 결과로 볼 때, 적 양배추 잎의 열수와 80% EtOH 추출물은 피부와 헤어관리 등의 미용 기능성화장 품 소재로도 활용 가능성이 있을 것으로 사료되며, 또한 이의 결과는 이 분야 연 구에 따른 기초자료로 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Carbonyl sulfide(COS) is a naturally generated gas from fermentation process of microbes and from plant root and stem. COS was firstly registered as a fumigant at 1993 to control stored product pests. To supplement environmental problems and toxicity of commercial fumigants and develop new fumigant, we have processed the susceptibility assessment of carbonyl sulfide on important agricultural pests, Myzus persicae and Tetranychus urticae. Every growth stages of two insect species were tested, and five dosages of carbonyl sulfide were treated for 4 hours, and the mortality was investigated after 24 hours of treatment. Nymphal stage of M. persicae was completely controlled at more than 20 mg/L dosage, and adult stage showed 95.8% mortality at 80 mg/L dosage. The LC50 of M. persicae was 7.314mg/L for nymph and 26.117mg/L for adult stage. Egg stage of T. urticae showed 91.2% mortality when treated with 100mg/L carbonyl sulfide, and nymph and adult stage showed 100% and 94.1% mortality at 8mg/L and 80mg/L, respectively. The LC50 of T. urticae was 73.110mg/L for egg, 2.818mg/L for nymph and 12.054mg/L for adult stage.
