In the research reported in this paper, NASICON-based NCAP glass (Na2.8Ca0.1Al2P3O12) was selected as the parent glass. The present study demonstrates the changes in the Na+ ion conductivity of NCAP bulk glass with the substitution of boron (NCABP: Na2.8Ca0.1Al2B0.5P2.7O12) and gallium (NCAGP: Na2.8Ca0.1Al2Ga0.5P2.7O12) for phosphorus and the resulting structural variations found in the glass network. For a detailed structural analysis of NCAP, NCABP and NCAGP glasses, micro-Raman and magic angle spinning-nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS-NMR) spectroscopic techniques (for 31P, 27Al, 23Na, 11B and 71Ga nuclei) were used. The Raman spectrum revealed that the NCAP glass structure is more analogous to the AlPO4 mesoporous glass structure. The 31P MAS-NMR spectrum illustrated that the NCAP glass structure consists of a high concentration of Q0 (3Al) units, followed by Q0 (2Al) units. The 27Al MAS-NMR spectrum indicates that alumina exists at five different sites, which include AlO4 units surrounded by AlO6 units, Al(OP)4, Al(OP)5, Al(OAl)6 and Al(OP)6, in the NCAP glass structure. The 31P, 27Al and 11B MAS-NMR spectra of the NCABP glass revealed the absence of B–O–Al linkages and the presence of B3–O–B4–O–P4 linkages which further leads to the formation of borate and borophosphate domains. The 71Ga MAS-NMR spectrum suggests that gallium cations in the NCAGP glass compete with the alumina cations and occupy four (GaO4), five (GaO5) and six (GaO6) coordinated sites. The Raman spectrum of NCAGP glass indicates that sodium cations have also been substituted by gallium cations in the NCAP glass structure. From impedance analysis, the dc conductivity of the NCAP glass (∼3.13 × 10−8 S cm−1) is slightly decreased with the substitution of gallium (∼2.27 × 10−8 S cm−1) but considerably decreased with the substitution of boron (∼1.46 × 10−8 S cm−1). The variation in the conductivity values are described based on the structural changes of NCAP glass with the substitution of gallium and boron.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;3.108&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Anurup</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Goswami, Madhumita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Illath, Kavya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ajithkumar, T.

Glass (G), based on Lithium Aluminium Germanium Phosphate (LAGP) was prepared and converted into glass-ceramics (GC) by optimized heating schedule. The crystalline LAGP has Na Super Ionic CONductor (NASICON) type unit cell where the lithium ions hop between two different positions providing long range ionic motion. To improve the inter electrode surface resistance and cell performance, Composite Solid Electrolyte (CSE) was prepared with poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexaflurophoaphate) (P(VDF-HFP)), 20wt% LAGP, Lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis-(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-imide (EMITFSI). X-ray diffraction patterns confirm the formation of the NASICON phase in LAGP GC and the amorphous nature of the CSE. NMR studies confirm formation of the Ge/AlO6 octahedra and PO4 tetrahedra inside the crystal. 7Li NMR also confirmed two different Lithium sites in LAGP crystal. The ionic conductivity values of CSE and LAGP GC are (4.49 +/- 0.31) x 10(-3)Scm(-1) and (2.70 +/- 0.04) x 10(-4)Scm(-1), respectively. The thermal stability of the prepared CSE is tested upto 315 degrees C without any degradation. Two cells (Cell-I &amp;amp; Cell-II) were fabricated using the LAGP GC and CSE respectively. Cell-II shows the specific discharge capacity of 151mAhg1 at 50th cycle which is higher as compared to Cell-I (129mAhg(-1)) when tested at the C-rate of 0.05 degrees C.&lt;/p&gt;

	Pharmaceutical eutectics are extremely useful for designing formulations, and currently, there are no techniques other than differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) that can confirm their formation. In this study, we demonstrate that 1H fast magic angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (SSNMR) experiments can confirm the formation of eutectics by detecting their intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions. 2D 1H-1H double quantum single quantum (DQSQ) correlation SSNMR experiment is demonstrated which can confirm the formation of pharmaceutical eutectics for which there are no techniques other than differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).&lt;/p&gt;

	Cellulose, a biodegradable and renewable material, is versatile and transforms various fields. This work uses a chemo-mechanical method to discuss the extraction and analysis of palmyra (Borassus flabellifer) fruit derived cellulose nanofibers (PFCNF). The mild acid treatment, steam explosion, and homogenization could increase the physico-chemical properties of Borassus flabellifer fiber. The chemical composition and FTIR analysis confirmed the successful elimination of the hemicellulose, lignin, and other extractives in the palmyra fruit pulp. The solid-state 13C NMR proved the cellulose type I structure of the extracted PFCNF. The crystallinity index of PFCNF was found to be 57%. The yield of the cellulose was calculated to be 44%. PFCNF exhibited fibrous morphology with a nanodimension of 10-80 nm, validated using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. With progressive treatments, the thermal stability was increased, and the Tmax of PFCNF was 32 degrees C higher compared to the raw fibers. These superior properties further support their potential in eco-friendly packaging, advanced composites, biomedical materials, film production, electronics, coating materials, and paper production.&lt;/p&gt;

	Turning agricultural waste into value-added products is a key focus of sustainable development. Herein, cellulose nanofibers (CNF) were extracted from the pericarp of Terminalia catappa L. for the first time. The CNF was extracted by chlorine-free pretreatment methods followed by oxalic acid hydrolysis (5 wt%) assisted with steam explosion. The prepared CNF were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA and DTG). FTIR analysis confirmed the successful removal of lignin and hemicellulose during chemical treatment which was again validated by solid-state 13C NMR analysis. TEM image revealed that the diameter of the extracted nanofibers ranges from 14 to 18 nm. From XRD analysis, the crystallinity index of the CNF was 82%, while that of the raw sample was 62 %. The temperature at which the maximum degradation (Tmax) of CNF occurred was found to be 372 degrees C which is superior to that of the raw sample (334 degrees C). The extracted cellulose nanofibers were used to prepare cellulose paper, demonstrating a tensile strength of 1.1 MPa, indicating its potential suitability for biodegradable packaging applications.&lt;/p&gt;

	Hydrogel polymer electrolytes with superior multifunctional properties are promising alternatives to aqueous electrolytes for resolving interfacial issues in rechargeable zinc-metal batteries. In this study, an intrinsic self-healing hydrogel polymer electrolyte (PHBC-4) is synthesized, engineered through an integrated approach involving the polar covalent (B &amp;amp; horbar;O bond), hydrogen-bond (polyvinyl alcohol-hydroxypropyl methylcellulose interface), and coordination-type (Zn &amp;amp; horbar;O) interactions to enable self-healing functionality. The PHBC-4 has demonstrated high ionic conductivity (4.6 x 10-2 S cm-1), good oxidative stability (2.3 V vs Zn|Zn2+), a high cation transference number (0.89), superior tensile strength (0.32 MPa), and an impressive healing efficiency of 93% achieved just within 5 min, confirming its robust self-healing capability. In Zn||Zn symmetric cells, it effectively suppresses dendrite growth, ensuring stable cycling for over 1032 h with an areal capacity of 1.0 mAh cm-2 at a current density of 1.0 mA cm-2. When paired with a Zn-doped MnO cathode in the rechargeable homemade pouch cell, the system delivers a high specific capacity of 160 mAh g-1 at 0.10 A g-1 and cycling stability up to 493 charge-discharge cycles at 2.0 A g-1. The self-healing ability of PHBC-4 HGPE is confirmed in a homemade pouch cell via OCV and charge-discharge tests, demonstrating stable performance. The DFT studies confirm molecular-level interactions within the hydrogel heterostructure.&lt;/p&gt;
