Confinement-Modulated Clusterization-Triggered Time-Dependent Phosphorescence Color from Xylan-Carbonized Polymer Dots.

Achieving time-dependent phosphorescence color (TDPC) in organic materials is attractive but extremely challenging due to the nonradiative decay and modulation puzzle of triplet state. Herein, xylan, a hemicellulose waste from the paper mill, was used to construct carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) with clusterization-triggered room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP). CPDs were endowed with tuneable triplet energy levels by through-space conjugation of heteroatom groups, which could be confined in silica to simultaneously activate surface oxide-related low-energy and cross-linked core N-related high-energy emissive centers. Thus, the blue emissive center with a lifetime of 425.6 ms and green emissive center with a longer lifetime of 1506 ms coexisted in the confined CPDs; the former was the dominant contribution to RTP at first, and the latter became dominant over time, leading to a typical TDPC evolution with large color contrast from blue to blue-green and then to green. Meanwhile, the TDPC could remain unobstructed after the confined CPDs were soaked in water for more than a month. The CPDs were successfully applied in location and deformation imaging of hydrogel and advanced dynamic information encryption and anticounterfeiting. The work may shed new light on the design of TDPC materials and broaden the high-value use of paper-mill waste xylan.

Precise Modulation of CO2 Sorption in Ti8Ce2-Oxo Clusters: Elucidating Lewis Acidity of the Ce Metal Sites and Structural Flexibility.

Investigating the structure-property correlation in porous materials is a fundamental and consistent focus in various scientific domains, especially within sorption research. Metal oxide clusters with capping ligands, characterized by intrinsic cavities formed through specific solid-state packing, demonstrate significant potential as versatile platforms for sorption investigations due to their precisely tunable atomic structures and inherent long-range order. This study presents a series of Ti8Ce2-oxo clusters with subtle variations in coordinated linkers and explores their sorption behavior. Notably, Ti8Ce2-BA (BA denotes benzoic acid) manifests a distinctive two-step profile during the CO2 adsorption, accompanied by a hysteresis loop. This observation marks a new instance within the metal oxide cluster field. Of intrigue, the presence of unsaturated Ce(IV) sites was found to be correlated with the stepped sorption property. Moreover, the introduction of an electrophilic fluorine atom, positioned ortho or para to the benzoic acid, facilitated precise control over gate pressure and stepped sorption quantities. Advanced in situ techniques systematically unraveled the underlying mechanism behind this unique sorption behavior. The findings elucidate that robust Lewis base-acid interactions are established between the CO2 molecules and Ce ions, consequently altering the conformation of coordinated linkers. Conversely, the F atoms primarily contribute to gate pressure variation by influencing the Lewis acidity of the Ce sites. This research advances the understanding in fabricating metal-oxo clusters with structural flexibility and provides profound insights into their host-guest interaction motifs. These insights hold substantial promise across diverse fields and offer valuable guidance for future adsorbent designs grounded in fundamental theories of structure-property relationships.

Facile Preparation of Full-Color Tunable Room Temperature Phosphorescence Cellulose via Click Chemistry.

Sustainable long-lived room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials with color-tunable afterglows are attractive but rarely reported. Here, cellulose is reconstructed by directed redox to afford ample active hydroxyl groups and water-solubility; arylboronic acids with various π conjugations can be facilely anchored to reconstructed cellulose via click chemistry within 1 min in pure water, resulting in full-color tunable RTP cellulose. The rigid environment provided by the B─O covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds can stabilize the triplet excitons, thus the target cellulose displays outstanding RTP performances with the lifetime of 2.67 s, phosphorescence quantum yield of 9.37%, and absolute afterglow luminance of 348 mcd m-2. Furthermore, due to the formation of various emissive species, the smart RTP cellulose shows excitation- and time-dependent afterglows. Taking advantages of sustainability, ultralong lifetime, and full-color tunable afterglows, et al, the environmentally friendly RTP cellulose is successfully used for nontoxic afterglow inks, delay lighting, and afterglow display.

Risk factors for acute kidney injury associated with intravenous vancomycin in neurosurgical inpatients: a retrospective study.

PURPOSE: Vancomycin (VAN) is widely used in neurosurgical patients for intracranial infections. We aimed to assess the incidence and risk factors for VAN-associated acute kidney injury (VA-AKI) in this population. METHODS: A case-control study of patients who treated with vancomycin in neurosurgery from January 2020 to December 2022 was conducted. Demographics and potential risk factors were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for VA-AKI. AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes Guidelines (KDIGO). RESULTS: A total of 345 patients participated with a VA-AKI incidence of 17.1% (59 cases). Among them, 15 patients had renal impairment (Stage 2 or higher), and 2 required dialysis. With univariate analysis and binary logistic regression analysis, we found that the use of mannitol (OR: 4.164; 95% CI: 1.606-10.792; P = 0.003), loop diuretics (OR: 3.371; 95% CI: 1.633-6.958; P = 0.001), three or more antimicrobial applications (OR: 3.623; 95% CI: 1.600-8.206; P = 0.002), diastolic blood pressure 80-89 mm Hg (OR: 5.532; 95% CI: 1.677-18.250; P = 0.005) and diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg (OR: 6.845; 95% CI: 1.518-30.866; P = 0.012) were independent risk factors for VA-AKI. In addition, according to the Youden Index, the trough concentration of vancomycin should not exceed 15.845 mg/L. CONCLUSION: The incidence of VA-AKI in neurosurgical patients was 17.1%. The concomitant use of mannitol and loop diuretics, along with higher diastolic blood pressure and the combined use of more than three antimicrobial agents, were associated with an increased risk of neurosurgical VA-AKI.

Scale-Spanning Strong Adhesion Using Cellulose-Based Microgels.

Adhesive gels derived from biobased sustainable materials have extremely broad application prospects, such as in flexible smart materials and biomedicine fields. Combining high toughness and strong, persisting repeatable adhesion has always been a daunting challenge for adhesive gels. However, bulk gels based on polysaccharides as the most abundant bio-based compounds usually possess a high toughness but weak interfacial adhesion due to the strong hydration potential. Herein, a novel kind of highly tough microgel membranes with rough surfaces is fabricated using loosely chemically cross-linked dihydroxypropyl cellulose (cDHPC) microgels (average size = 1.25 ± 0.03 µm). Such microgel membranes exhibit strong, instant, and persisting adhesion to various substrates with different surface roughness. Slight chemical cross-linking and multiple physical interactions within microgels and resulting microgel membranes lead to high tensile strength and toughness of 0.23 ± 0.03 MPa and 73.8 ± 9.3 KJ m-3 , respectively. The maximum adhesive strength and debonding work exceed 320 ± 0.50 KPa and 160.97 ± 0.20 J m-2 , respectively. After five cycles (re-lap after detaching), the adhesive strength still remains above 200 KPa. Their adhesive properties outperform most bio-based adhesive gels and even petroleum-based gels, which are based on synergistic molecular and microscaled topological interactions.

Molecular and thermodynamic insights into interfacial interactions between collagen and cellulose investigated by molecular dynamics simulation and umbrella sampling.

Cellulose/collagen composites have been widely used in biomedicine and tissue engineering. Interfacial interactions are crucial in determining the final properties of cellulose/collagen composite. Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to gain insights into the interactions between cellulose and collagen. It has been found that the structure of collagen remained intact during adsorption. The results derived from umbrella sampling showed that (110) and ([Formula: see text]) faces exhibited the strongest affinity with collagen (100) face came the second and (010) the last, which could be attributed to the surface roughness and hydrogen-bonding linkers involved water molecules. Cellulose planes with flat surfaces and the capability to form hydrogen-bonding linkers produce stronger affinity with collagen. The occupancy of hydrogen bonds formed between cellulose and collagen was low and not significantly contributive to the binding affinity. These findings provided insights into the interactions between cellulose and collagen at the molecular level, which may guide the design and fabrication of cellulose/collagen composites.

Molecular scale behavior of xylan during solvent-controlled extraction and precipitation.

Solvent-controlled extraction and precipitation are the most fundamental methods for obtaining hemicellulose from lignocellulosic biomass and purification processes. However, the dissolution and precipitation mechanisms involved have scarcely been mentioned. In this study, the molecular scale behavior of xylan-type hemicellulose during solvent-controlled extraction and precipitation is investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. To bring the model closer to the real extracted xylan, a high degree of polymerization (DP100) of xylan is established, and hemicelluloses with low DP (DP15 and DP50) are also investigated. Four phenomena are explained at the molecular level, including the influence of the polymerization degree and side chain on the solubility of xylan in water, the improvement of the xylan's solubility in NaOH, the precipitation of xylan in ethanol, and the acetyl group preservation of xylan in DMSO. This study contributes to an increased understanding of the dissolution and precipitation mechanisms of hemicellulose and provides a resource for the simulation of high DP hemicellulose, which gives a theoretical basis for the efficient extraction of high-purity hemicellulose as well as economic biorefining.

Hierarchical Vision Navigation System for Quadruped Robots with Foothold Adaptation Learning.

Legged robots can travel through complex scenes via dynamic foothold adaptation. However, it remains a challenging task to efficiently utilize the dynamics of robots in cluttered environments and to achieve efficient navigation. We present a novel hierarchical vision navigation system combining foothold adaptation policy with locomotion control of the quadruped robots. The high-level policy trains an end-to-end navigation policy, generating an optimal path to approach the target with obstacle avoidance. Meanwhile, the low-level policy trains the foothold adaptation network through auto-annotated supervised learning to adjust the locomotion controller and to provide more feasible foot placement. Extensive experiments in both simulation and the real world show that the system achieves efficient navigation against challenges in dynamic and cluttered environments without prior information.

Extracellular vesicles mediated proinflammatory macrophage phenotype induced by radiotherapy in cervical cancer.

BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy is a highly effective treatment for cervical cancer. Recent studies focused on the radiotherapy induced anti-tumor immunity. Whether tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play roles in radiotherapy induced tumor associated macrophage (TAM) polarization remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study analysed the phenotype of macrophages in cancer tissue and peripheral blood of cervical cancer patients using flow cytometry analysis. The role of EVs from plasma of post-irradiated patients on M2-like transformed macrophages was assessed. The M1- and M2-like macrophages were assessed by expression of cell surface markers (CCR7, CD163) and intracellular cytokines (IL-10, TNFα and iNOS). The capacity of phagocytosis was assessed by PD-1 expression and phagocytosis of pHrodo Red E. coli bioparticles. RESULTS: Our results demonstrated that radiotherapy of cervical cancer induced an increase in the number of TAMs and a change in their subtype from the M2-like to the M1-like phenotype (increased expression of CCR7 and decreased expression of CD163). The EVs from plasma of post-irradiated patients facilitated the M2-like to the M1-like phenotype transition (increased expression of CCR7, TNFα and iNOS, and decreased expression of CD163 and IL-10) and increased capacity of phagocytosis (decreased PD-1 expression and increased phagocytosis of pHrodo Red E. coli bioparticles). CONCLUSIONS: Our data demonstrated that irradiation in cervical cancer patients facilitated a proinflammatory macrophage phenotype which could eventually able to mediate anti-tumor immune responses. Our findings highlight the importance of EV in the crosstalk of tumor cells and TAM upon irradiation, which potentially leading to an increased inflammatory response to cancer lesions.

Interpretation of Strengthening Mechanism of Densified Wood from Supramolecular Structures.

In this study, densified wood was prepared by hot pressing after partial lignin and hemicellulose were removed through alkaline solution cooking. The tensile strength and elastic modulus of densified wood were improved up to 398.5 MPa and 22.5 GPa as compared with the original wood, and the characterization of its supramolecular structures showed that the crystal plane spacing of the densified wood decreased, the crystallite size increased, and the maximum crystallinity (CI) of cellulose increased by 15.05%; outstandingly, the content of O(6)H⋯O(3') intermolecular H-bonds increased by approximately one-fold at most. It was found that the intermolecular H-bond content was significantly positively correlated with the tensile strength and elastic modulus, and accordingly, their Pearson correlation coefficients were 0.952 (p < 0.01) and 0.822 (p < 0.05), respectively. This work provides a supramolecular explanation for the enhancement of tensile strength of densified wood.

Green Fabrication of Highly Conductive Paper Electrodes via Interface Engineering with Aminocellulose.

Herein, a novel, facile, and versatile approach to fabricate highly flexible and conductive paper is proposed by electroless deposition (ELD) with the assistance of aminocellulose as the interface layer. The obtained Cu nanoparticles (NPs)-coated cellulose paper is highly conductive with a significant low resistance of 0.38 Ω sq-1 after only 10 min of ELD treatment. This conductive cellulose paper shows excellent stability when it suffers from bending, folding, and tape adhesion cycles. With the same method, the Cu NPs can also be successfully deposited on the polypropylene (PP)-filled hybrid paper. The conductive paper exhibits very smooth and hydrophobic surface with high reflection, which can be used for special electronic devices. In a word, the fabrication of aminocellulose interface permits a controlled ELD of metal nanoparticles on paper substrate, and this mild and low-cost method opens up new opportunities for large-scale production of flexible and wearable electronics.

Microwave-Assisted Oxalic Acid Pretreatment for the Enhancing of Enzyme Hydrolysis in the Production of Xylose and Arabinose from Bagasse.

In this study, highly-efficient hydrolysis of bagasse into xylose and arabinose sugars (C5 sugars) was developed by microwave-assisted oxalic acid pretreatment under mild reaction conditions. The effects of acid and hydrolysis conditions on the C5 sugar yields were discussed. The results showed that oxalic acid performed better than hydrochloric acid and maleic acid, and was a promising alternative to sulfuric acid for xylose production at the same acid concentration. The maximum yields of xylose (95.7%) and arabinose (91.5%) were achieved via the microwave-assisted oxalic acid pretreatment (120 °C, 10 min, 0.4 mol/L, solid-liquid ratio of 1:50 g/mL), indicating that almost all xylan-type hemicelluloses were released from the cell wall and hydrolyzed into C5 sugars. After pretreatment, more than 90% of the cellulose in the residual bagasse was converted to glucose (92.2%) by enzymatic hydrolysis. This approach could realize the highly-efficient hydrolysis of xylan from bagasse into C5 sugars, which would enhance the enzyme hydrolysis of treated bagasse into glucose.

Molecular mechanism of G1 arrest and cellular senescence induced by LEE011, a novel CDK4/CDK6 inhibitor, in leukemia cells.

BACKGROUND: Overexpression of cyclin D1 dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) is a common feature of many human cancers including leukemia. LEE011 is a novel inhibitor of both CDK4 and 6. To date, the molecular function of LEE011 in leukemia remains unclear. METHODS: Leukemia cell growth and apoptosis following LEE011 treatment was assessed through CCK-8 and annexin V/propidium iodide staining assays. Cell senescence was assessed by ß-galactosidase staining and p16INK4a expression analysis. Gene expression profiles of LEE011 treated HL-60 cells were investigated using an Arraystar Human LncRNA array. Gene ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were then used to analyze the differentially expressed genes from the cluster analysis. RESULTS: Our studies demonstrated that LEE011 inhibited proliferation of leukemia cells and could induce apoptosis. Hoechst 33,342 staining analysis showed DNA fragmentation and distortion of nuclear structures following LEE011 treatment. Cell cycle analysis showed LEE011 significantly induced cell cycle G1 arrest in seven of eight acute leukemia cells lines, the exception being THP-1 cells. ß-Galactosidase staining analysis and p16INK4a expression analysis showed that LEE011 treatment can induce cell senescence of leukemia cells. LncRNA microarray analysis showed 2083 differentially expressed mRNAs and 3224 differentially expressed lncRNAs in LEE011-treated HL-60 cells compared with controls. Molecular function analysis showed that LEE011 induced senescence in leukemia cells partially through downregulation of the transcriptional expression of MYBL2. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate for the first time that LEE011 treatment results in inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of G1 arrest and cellular senescence in leukemia cells. LncRNA microarray analysis showed differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs in LEE011-treated HL-60 cells and we demonstrated that LEE011 induces cellular senescence partially through downregulation of the expression of MYBL2. These results may open new lines of investigation regarding the molecular mechanism of LEE011 induced cellular senescence.

Selectively fractionate hemicelluloses with high molecular weight from poplar thermomechanical pulp by tetramethylammonium hydroxide.

Selective fractionation of hemicelluloses is of great significance for realizing high-value application of hemicelluloses and comprehensive utilization of lignocellulosic biomass. Tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solvent has been confirmed as a promising solvent to selectively fractionate hemicelluloses from holocellulose. Herein, TMAH solvent was adopted to pretreat poplar thermomechanical pulp (PTMP) for the selective fractionation of hemicelluloses and enhancement of enzymatic hydrolysis performance of residues. The maximal hemicelluloses yield (65.0 %) and excellent cellulose retention rate (93.3 %) were achieved after pretreatment by the 25 wt% TMAH solvent, while the delignification was only 33.9 %. The hemicelluloses fractions could be selectively fractionated with high molecular weights (109,800-118,500 g/mol), the contents of Klason lignin in them were low (3.2-5.9 %), and the dominating structure of them was 4-O-methylglucurono-ß-D-xylan. Compared to the H2SO4 and NaOH methods, the hemicelluloses fractionated by TMAH method exhibited higher yields, more complete structures and higher molecular weights. Furthermore, the crystalline structure of cellulose practically remained stable, and the highest yield of enzymatic hydrolysis glucose was 57.5 %, which was 3.3 times of that of PTMP. The fractionation effectiveness of TMAH solvent was not significantly reduced after repeatedly recycling. This work demonstrated TMAH solvent could selectively fractionate hemicelluloses from PTMP and efficiently promote sustainable poplar-based biorefinery.

Unveiling Synergetic Photocatalytic Activity from Heterometallic Ti/Ce Clusters.

Titanium-oxo clusters, with their robust structure and suitable optical and electronic properties, have been widely investigated as photocatalysts. Heterometallic Ti/M-oxo clusters provide additional tunability and functionality, which enable systematic structure-activity investigations to elucidate the reaction mechanisms and improve the catalyst design. Incorporating cerium into Ti-oxo clusters can provide additional redox (CeIV/CeIII) and oxygen harvesting ability, but to date, only a limited number of structurally defined titanium-cerium (Ti/Ce) clusters have been reported due to their synthetic challenges. Herein, we report the synthesis and photocatalytic properties of two structurally defined Ti/Ce-oxo clusters, Ti8Ce2(BA)16 and Ti9Ce4(BA)20, as well as a TiCe-BA cluster with a calculated formula of Ti20Ce9O36(BA)42. Photocatalytic study of these clusters demonstrates that the amount of Ce3+ species greatly impacts its photocatalytic oxidation performance, and their superior photocatalytic reactivity toward aerobic alcohol oxidation can be contributed to the synergistic effects of the multiple radical species generated upon light absorption. This work represents a significant milestone in the construction of stable Ti/Ce-oxo clusters, enriching the current library of known heterometallic Ti/M-oxo clusters, and providing a series of crystalline materials with great promise of photoluminescence and photovoltaic chemistry.

Sex differences in the correlation between white matter hyperintensity and 3-month outcome in acute stroke patients.

Background: The severity of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) has been shown to be an independent predictor of poor stroke outcome, but the effect of sex on this correlation has not been investigated further. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to assess whether there was a sex difference between the severity of WMH and poor stroke outcome. Methods: This retrospective study included 449 patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) who received intravenous thrombolysis. WMH severity was graded based on the Fazekas scale. The association between WMH severity and stroke outcome was explored through multivariable regression analyses in men and women. Results: Among women, when dividing WMH severity into tertiles, T3 (Fazekas scale >3) had a 5.334 times higher risk for unfavorable outcomes than T1 (Fazekas scale <2) (p-trend = 0.026) in the adjusted model. In addition, moderate-severe WMH (Fazekas scale 3-6) had a 3.391 (1.151-9.991) times higher risk than none-mild WMH (Fazekas scale 0-2) (p = 0.027). Conclusions: The risk of unfavorable outcomes increased proportionally with the enlargement of the WMH severity in females, suggesting the sex-specific value of the WMH severity in optimizing the risk stratification of stroke.

A fractionation strategy of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin from wheat straw via the biphasic pretreatment for biomass valorization.

Developing an environmentally friendly and efficient pretreatment to utilize wheat straw is essential to a sustainable future. An acid biphasic system with 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) organic solvent and dilute p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH) were employed for the simultaneous fractionation of three components. Results showed that the biphasic system had excellent cellulose protection and high removal of hemicellulose and lignin. In detail, Under the optimal conditions (0.1 M p-TsOH, 2-MeTHF: H2O = 1:1 (v:v), 140 °C, 3 h), mostly cellulose retained in the residues (95.69%), 57.18% of lignin was removed and high yield of hemicellulose-based C5 sugars was achieved (77.49%). In the further process of dehydration of pre-hydrolysate dichloromethane (DCM) as an organic phase, the yield of furfural was 80.07% (170 °C-80 min). The saccharification of residue reached 95.82%. p-TsOH/2-MeTHF/H2O pretreatment was desirable for high selectivity fractionation. Important chemicals for bioenergy including furfural, monosaccharides and lignin are obtained.

Exploring the Associations Between Non-Traditional Lipid Parameters and Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume.

The aim of this retrospective study was to determine the relationship between non-traditional lipid parameters and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). A total of 770 patients with coronary computed tomography angiography examinations were included. The non-traditional lipid parameters included the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), the atherogenic coefficient (AC), monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR), and lipoprotein combined index (LCI). To investigate the association between non-conventional lipid markers and the EAT-volume (EAT-v), a univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to compare the predictive ability among the four non-traditional lipid parameters. In the univariate analysis, we identified factors that might have effects on EAT-v (all P<.05) and adjusted for these in the multivariate analysis. We found that except for MHR, other non-traditional lipid parameters were still associated with high EAT-v after adjustment (all P<.05). In the ROC analysis, the area under the curve (AUC) of AIP was greater than that of other non-traditional lipid parameters and lipid profiles. There was an association between both non-traditional lipid parameters and EAT-v. After adjustment, the AIP remained an independent predictor of EAT-v and it outperformed other non-traditional lipid parameters.

Plutonium-based radiometric dating of rapidly accumulated sediments in the Sanyuan sinkhole, southern Chinese Loess Plateau.

Radionuclides, such as 210Pb, 137Cs and 239,240Pu, have been widely used for dating recent sediments in terrestrial and marine environments, while 129I, as an important artificial radionuclide in the environment, is also a potential tracer for sediment dating and environmental process studies. However, they were not always successfully applied to sediment dating because of their different sources, half-lives, environmental behaviour and measurement techniques. The dating applicability of these nuclides in a sedimentary environment with rapid accumulation on land was investigated for sinkhole sediment from the southern Chinese Loess Plateau. Our results showed that 210Pb and 137Cs could not be adequately used for dating the sediments due to the difficulties in accurately measuring 137Cs and excess 210Pb (210Pbex) signals caused by the dilution effect of rapid accumulation. 129I is not an ideal dating tracer because of its multisource feature causing no remarkable peak value in the sediment cores. The depth distribution of 239,240Pu in the sediment core showed a single peak corresponding to its maximum fallout in 1963 from the atmospheric nuclear weapons test, suggesting that Pu isotopes have significant advantages in dating recent sediments. The sensitive inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) measurement technique enables the determination of very low levels of 239Pu and 240Pu and makes 239,240Pu a suitable tracer for dating the rapidly accumulated sediment. Based on the 239,240Pu mass balance equation estimation and field observations, we proposed the water-eroded input from soil surrounding the sinkhole as another vital source of the sediments in addition to the aeolian contribution.

Large-Scale Preparation for Multicolor Stimulus-Responsive Room-Temperature Phosphorescence Paper via Cellulose Heterogeneous Reaction.

The large-scale preparation of sustainable room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials, particularly those with stimulus-response properties, is attractive but remains challenging. This study develops a facile heterogeneous B─O covalent bonding strategy to anchor arylboronic acid chromophores to cellulose chains using pure water as a solvent, resulting in multicolor RTP cellulose. The rigid environment provided by the B─O covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds promotes the triplet population and suppresses quenching, leading to an excellent lifetime of 1.42 s for the target RTP cellulose. By increasing the degree of chromophore conjugation, the afterglow colors can be tuned from blue to green and then to red. Motivated by this finding, a papermaking production line is built to convert paper pulp reacted with an arylboronic acid additive into multicolor RTP paper on a large scale. Furthermore, the RTP paper is sensitive to water because of the destruction of hydrogen bonds, and the stimuli-response can be repeated in response to water/heat stimuli. The RTP paper can be folded into 3D afterglow origami handicrafts and anti-counterfeiting packing boxes or used for stimulus-responsive information encryption. This success paves the way for the development of large-scale, eco-friendly, and practical stimuli-responsive RTP materials.
