Abstract
Enriching erythrocytes and platelets in seconds and providing a fast seal in bleeding sites is vital to fatal hemorrhage control. Herein, hydrophilic chitosan fibrous mats (CECS-D mats) are fabricated by introducing hydrophilic carboxyethyl groups and subsequent catechol groups onto chitosan fibers. Due to strong hydrophilicity, CECS-D mats exhibit rapid liquid-absorption capacity, especially instantaneous absorptivity to the rabbit blood, which can achieve erythrocyte and platelet aggregations quickly by concentrating blood, thus promoting the formation of blood clots. Furthermore, the mats are self-oxidated to form quinone-amine adducts or quinone multimers by adjusting pH conditions, which not only provides tissue adhesion but also induces erythrocyte aggregation and platelet adhesion, further enhancing the seal and triggering quick closure to achieve fast hemostasis. Therefore, the mats reveal superior hemostatic performance in rabbit liver and spleen models over CECS mats and gauze. Especially in the fatal femoral artery injury model of rabbits, the mats reduce the blood loss by ∼75% and shortened the bleeding time by ∼50% compared with CECS mats, which have been reported to have the same hemostatic effect as commercialized Celox products in a swine femoral artery injury model. Besides, the mats are cytocompatible and degradable as well as antibacterial. This chitosan mat is a promising hemostatic material for fatal hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Currently, the copolymer of dopamine (DA) and pyrrole (PY) via chemical and electrochemical oxidation usually requires additional oxidants, and lacks flexibility in regulating the size and morphology, thereby limiting the broad applications of DA-PY copolymer in biomedicine. Herein, the semiquinone radicals produced by the self-oxidation of DA is ingeniously utilized as the oxidant to initiate the following copolymerization with PY, and a series of quinone-rich polydopamine-pyrrole copolymers (PDAm -nPY) with significantly enhanced absorption in near-infrared (NIR) region without any additional oxidant assistance is obtained. Moreover, the morphology and size of PDAm -nPY can be regulated by changing the concentration of DA and PY, thereby optimizing nanoscale PDA0.05 -0.15PY particles (≈ 150 nm) with excellent NIR absorption and surface modification activity are successfully synthesized. Such PDA0.05 -0.15PY particles show effective photoacoustic (PA) imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT) against 4T1 tumors in vivo. Furthermore, other catechol derivatives can also copolymerize with PY under the same conditions. This work by fully utilizing the semiquinone radical active intermediates produced through the self-oxidation of DA reduces the dependence on external oxidants in the synthesis of composite materials and predigests the preparation procedure, which provides a novel, simple, and green strategy for the synthesis of other newly catechol-based functional copolymers.

Abstract
It is known that there are semiconductor oxides involved in mineral dust, which have photocatalytic properties. However, soot particles contained in carbonaceous aerosol and their photoactivity under sunlight are rarely realized. In this study, reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide anions and hydroxyl radicals were generated upon visible-light irradiation of soot particles, and the production activity was consistent with the carbonaceous core content, indicating that the atmospheric soot particles can serve as a potential photocatalyst. The increase of oxygen-containing functional groups, environmentally persistent free radicals, oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and the oxidative potential (OP) of soot after irradiation confirmed the occurrence of visible-light-triggered photocatalytic oxidation of the soot itself. The mechanism analyses suggested that the carbonaceous core caused the production of ROS, which subsequently oxidize the extractable organic species on the soot surface. It is oxidized organic extracts that are responsible for the enhancements of the OP, cell mortality, and intracellular ROS generation. These new findings shed light on both the photocatalytic role of the soot and the importance of ROS during the photochemical self-oxidation of soot triggered by visible light and will promote a more comprehensive understanding of both the atmospheric chemical behavior and health effects of soot particles.

Abstract
As a competitive anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), a commercially available red phosphorus, featured with a high theoretical capacity (2596 mA h g-1) and a suitable operating voltage plateau (0.1-0.6 V), has been confronted with a severe structural instability and a rapid capacity degradation upon large volumetric change. In particular, the fundamental determining factors for phosphorus anode materials are yet poorly understood, and their interfacial stability against ambient air has not been explored and clarified. Herein, a high-performance phosphorus/carbon anode material has been fabricated simply through ball-milling the carbon black and red phosphorus, delivering a high reversible capacity of 1070 mA h g-1 at 400 mA g-1 after 200 cycles and a superior rate capability of 479 mA h g-1 at 3200 mA g-1. More importantly, we first reveal the significance of inhibiting the exposure of phosphorus/carbon electrode materials to air, even for a short period, for achieving a good electrochemical performance, which would sharply decrease the reversible capacities. With the assistance of synchrotron-based X-ray techniques, the formation and accumulation of insulating phosphate compounds can be spectroscopically identified, leading to the decay of electrochemical performance. At the same time, these passivation layers on the surface of electrode were found to occur via a self-oxidation process in ambient air. To maintain the electrochemical advantages of phosphorus anodes, it is necessary to inhibit their contact with air through a rational coating or an optimal storage condition. Additionally, the employment of a fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) additive facilitates the decomposition of the electrolyte and favors the formation of a robust solid electrolyte interphase layer, which may suppress the side reactions between the active Na-P compounds and the electrolyte. These findings could help improve the surface protection and interfacial stability of phosphorus anodes for high-performance SIBs.
