α-Fe/FeTiO 3 /TiO 2 was synthesized through the reduction of Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 at 800 °C, and subsequently nitrided in NH 3 atmosphere at the nitridation temperature T N = 400, 600, 800 and 1000 °C. In the crystal lattice of TiO 2 , with increasing T N , the N element itself exhibits the chemical states of TiO 2-x N x , TiN and interstitial N, and simultaneously it induces the complex variation of the chemical state of the Ti and O elements. The photocatalytic performance of the nitrided samples is not determined only by the chemical states of the N element but by the synergistic effects of chemical states of the N, Ti and O elements.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is a third-generation fluoroquinolones (FQs) antibiotic, and the occurrence of CIP in the water environment has raised growing concerns owning to its environmental toxicity. In this paper, a novel α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite was synthesized via a one-step reflux method for CIP degradation through a photo-Fenton-like process. When the RGO content was 1 wt%, CIP degradation ratio by the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite reached 100% under visible light irradiation within 120 min, and total organic carbon (TOC) removal ratio reached 60% within 180 min. The result of molecular fluorescence spectra highlighted that the loading of RGO on the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH significantly increased the content of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) in the heterogeneous photo-Fenton-like system and simultaneously inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron and hole, which played critical roles in the enhancement of CIP degradation. In addition, 11 main intermediates were identified as the degradation products of CIP in the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO/H 2 O 2 /visible light reaction systems using liquid chromatograph–mass spectrometer (LC-MS) analyses. The results demonstrated that three degradation pathways for CIP removal by α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite occurred, including (i) oxidation on the piperazine ring and dealkylation, (ii) defluorination and decarboxylation, and (iii) hydroxylation on the quinolone ring. This work would provide a novel insight of CIP degradation pathways in photo-Fenton-like processes. Graphical abstract

Fe-doped polymer-derived SiCN ceramics were synthesized by a precursor conversion method with different contents of nano-Fe2O3. The phase composition and microstructure were characterized by XRD, SEM and TEM. The results revealed that α-Fe and graphite phases were generated during the synthetic process. The electromagnetic and wave absorbing properties of the Fe-doped SiCN ceramics were analyzed with different amounts of nano-F2O3 over the frequency range of 2–18 GHz. The existence of α-Fe and graphite phases improved the electromagnetic properties of the materials greatly. The reflectance and electromagnetic attenuation coefficient of Fe-doped SiCN ceramics (15 wt% F2O3) reached −11 dB and 325 at 10.5 GHz, respectively, which indicated that the Fe-doped SiCN ceramics possessed excellent absorbing properties.

The efficiency of photothermal therapy based on conventional Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) is limited due to their low absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) region. To surmount this obstacle, α-Fe nanoparticles/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composite is synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation (IWI). Due to improved extinction and heat generation mechanism (plasmons/electrons thermalization) of metallic Fe NPs with in nanocomposite structure, the photothermal conversion efficiency of Fe/MWCNTs composite is 87.98% (content: 60 μg/mL, 808 nm at power density of 1 W/cm2), which is highest among the previously reported Fe3O4 and other carbon-based nanostructures. The HaCaT cell viability after 72 h of coculturing is more than 91%, indicating the good biocompatibility of nanocomposite. The viability of B16–F10 melanoma cells is only 9.78% (808 nm laser irradiation for 15 min at 0.33 W/cm2), demonstrating the potential for hands-on applications.

α ″ - Fe 16 N 2 nanoparticles were produced from starting Fe 3 O 4 powders via hydrogen reduction and low temperature nitridation. Influences of both reduction and nitridation conditions on the synthesis of α ″ - Fe 16 N 2 were investigated in detail. The magnetic properties of the nitrided products were also studied. The results show that the combination of 4-h reduction at 400 °C and 16-h nitridation at 170 °C gives the highest yield of α ″ - Fe 16 N 2 up to 59.8 wt. %, which exhibits a saturation magnetization of about 207.3 emu/g.

In this study, an amorphous Li 2 CO 3 -coated nanocrystalline α-Fe 2 O 3 hierarchical structure is synthesized for the first time using a facile one-step mechanochemical process at room temperature, taking advantage of the concurrence of repeated fracture-cold welding of material's particles and a gas-solid redox reaction. The conformal coating and hierarchical structure significantly increase the cycling durability and rate capability. Typically, a 1–3 nm thick amorphous Li 2 CO 3 layer is conformally coated on Fe 2 O 3 nanocrystallines (≈10 nm in size) that form hierarchically aggregated particles 400–800 nm in size by ball milling α-Fe 2 O 3 with LiH in CO 2 . The prepared Li 2 CO 3 -coated nanocrystalline α-Fe 2 O 3 exhibits highly stable long-term cyclability as it delivers a reversible capacity of 975 mAh g −1 with 99% of retention after 400 cycles at 100 mA g −1 . At a high rate of 3000 mA g −1 , its reversible capacity still remains at 537 mAh g −1 , superior to the uncoated counterpart (311 mAh g −1 ). Moreover, amorphous Li 2 O and Li 2 CO 3 coatings are also similarly produced on Fe 2 O 3 and NiO nanocrystallines, respectively, representing the general applicability of this mechanochemical approach.

This study presents an innovative nanocomposite film with multiple synergistic sterilization modes, which aims to enhance the freshness of fruits and reduce wastage by capitalizing on the availability of sunlight. In detail, α-Fe 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 (FOCN) nanocomposite with excellent visible-light-harvesting ability and photodynamic antibacterial activity was fabricated, which was then filled within a chitosan (CS) matrix, resulting in a novel antibacterial film for food preservation. The obtained α-Fe 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 /chitosan (FOCN/CS) film exhibited impressive antibacterial activities, with sterilizing rate of 99.7 % ± 0.6 % against Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and 97.6 % ± 0.4 % against Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) with short processing time (10 min) under visible light illumination. Based on this, the FOCN/CS film demonstrated excellent food preservation performance, which significantly prolonged the shelf life of strawberries, baby bok choy and pork. Such satisfactory preservation ability originates from the synergistic effect of α-Fe 2 O 3 and g-C 3 N 4 , which formed S-type heterojunction and bestow the FOCN/CS film with superior photodynamic antibacterial activity. Therefore, the film provides a novel microbiological control barrier for food preservation, with the potential to effectively reduce microbiologically induced food spoilage problems.

Both iron-reducing bacteria (IRB) and iron are loaded to anode during the microbial electro-Fenton (MEF) system, which simultaneously achieves the refractory wastewater treatment and iron circulation. Meanwhile, the amounts of iron play a pivotal role in both performance of microbial electrochemical system (MES) and regulation of the microbial community and metabolism. Therefore, additional α-Fe 2 O 3 was adopted in MEF system, and then the regulation mechanism for anodic microorganism was thoroughly revealed in this study. When α-Fe 2 O 3 loading increased to 2 mg/cm 2 , phenol removal rate improved by 3.8 times and the anaerobic biofilm thickness of 1000 μm on the anode surface; following, current density increased by 96.2 % and current resistance reduced by 50.5 %. Metatranscriptomic sequencing indicated that α-Fe 2 O 3 could improve microbial metabolism activity via up-regulating the enzymes associated with tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle). Meanwhile, Shewanella abundance increased 326-fold, and α-Fe 2 O 3 up-regulated the expression of Type II secretion system and cytochrome c synthesis, promoting extracellular electron transfer (EET) process via direct contact pathway. Overall, this study provided a novel strategy for optimizing the performance of MEF system.
