The selective detection of propane gas molecules using semiconductor gas sensors has always been a challenge within research. In this study, we successfully synthesized a γ-Fe2O3nanomaterial with a selective catalytic effect on propane and loaded it onto a ZnO sensing material to construct a double-layer microsensor, which showed good sensing response characteristics in the detection of the refrigerant R290 (which is mainly propane). In addition, we also prepared a series of iron oxides, including nanomaterials such as α-Fe2O3, Fe3O4, and FeO, as well as γ-Fe2O3materials with different specific surface areas obtained at various processing temperatures, and we carried out gas sensing research on R290. The results show that the γ-Fe2O3material has a better sensitivity to R290, and the γ-Fe2O3material calcined at 200 °C shows the best performance. Our results can provide a theoretical basis for the design and optimization of semiconductor gas sensors for alkane detection.

A facile method of synthesizing γ-Fe2O3 ultrathin nanoplates has been developed. These nanoplates are single crystalline and superparamagnetic at room temperature, with a thickness of only 1.4 nm. FTIR analysis has shown that the coordination mode between Fe and carboxyl group is dominated by bidentate configuration in the as prepared iron oleate complex, which is the key for producing the nanoplate morphology. By changing the reaction temperatures, the lateral size and thickness of nanoplates can be varied.

Modifying semiconductor photoanode with efficient and cheap iron-based oxygen evolution cocatalyst along with functional interlayer is an efficient method to enhance the water splitting efficiency of photoelectrochemical (PEC). Poly-aminoanthraquinone (PDAAQ) due to its outstanding reversible redox activity plays a significant role as proton receptor. Herein, an easy-handle solvothermal method is adopted to prepare γ-Fe 2 O 3 -PDAAQ@BiVO 4 . With the concerted efforts of the ternary structure, the photocurrent of γ-Fe 2 O 3 -PDAAQ@BiVO 4 photoanode reach to 5.35 mAcm 2 at 1.23 V RHE (3.3 times of pure BiVO 4 ). The improvement is ascribable to the abundant catalytic active sites and large catalytic area of γ-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles . Additionally, theoretical calculations show that PDAAQ can form type II heterojunction with BiVO 4 to inhibit carrier recombination. At the same time, the role of PDAAQ in promoting water oxidation kinetics by accelerating proton coupled electron transfer process has also been confirmed in isotope effect experiment.

Iron-based nanostructured materials are desirable for various applications owing to their high magnetization. Herein, we presented a facile fabrication of free-standing γ-Fe 2 O 3 nanosheets by a molten salt method for microwave absorption. Furthermore, Al component was incorporated to serve as the template for hole production. The designed holey γ-Fe 2 O 3 nanosheets were effective to maximize the usage of nanomaterials, thereby providing larger surface area, richer defects, and more polarization centers. Both experimental measurements and electric field simulation showed an enhanced capability for microwave absorption using holey γ-Fe 2 O 3 when compared with its intact counterpart. Oxygen vacancy was generated during the hole evolution, which significantly improved the electrical conductivity and thus promoted the conductive loss mechanism. In addition, the holey configuration may extend the transmission path of microwave and confer it with multiple reflection and scattering within the absorbent matrix. Meantime, the polarization loss was strengthened owing to Al modulation associated with the induced defect sites. With the improvement in conductive loss, polarization, impedance matching, and attenuation constant, the as-synthesized holey γ-Fe 2 O 3 exhibited promising microwave absorbability, with a maximum reflection loss of 52.4 dB and an effective bandwidth of 5.12 GHz at a thickness of 2.2 mm, overperforming most pure Fe-based materials.

Magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles were successfully deposited on the surface of the bamboo via a coprecipitation process at room temperature. Spherical-like magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles with a diameter of about 17 nm displayed well superparamagnetic behavior and were chemically bonded to the bamboo surface through the combination of hydrogen groups. With further modification by 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltri ethoxysilane (FAS-17), magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 /bamboo composites (MBCs) expressed superhydrophobic performances to not only water but also common liquids like coffee, milk, ink, tea, and coke. When immersed into the corrosive solutions including strong acid (pH = 1), heavy alkaline (pH = 14), and salt with high concentration (5 M) for 24 h, superhydrophobic magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 /bamboo composites (SMBC) still remained magnetism as well as superhydrophobicity. Also, under harsh conditions like boiled at 100 °C for 4 h, frozen at − 40 °C for 24 h, SMBCs were kept a robust magnetism and superhydrophobicity. Additionally, SMBC was a typical ferromagnet and exhibited some microwave absorbabilities .

The polymer dispersed liquid crystal films doped with the low concentration γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles coated with oleic acid were inverstigatited. The experimental results showed that the doped and un-doped polymer dispersed liquid crystal films were the similar surface morphologies, however their evolving curves of the capacitance with the applied voltage were different, as well as the transmission rate. The interpretations based on these differences were proposed, i.e. those came from the adsorbed free ions by the γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles, instead of the electromagnetic properties of the γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. The effect of the free ions is equivalent to the negative dielectric constant and refractive index. Furthermore, the reduction of the free ion concentration due to the absorption in the doped polymer dispersed liquid crystal films can decrease the negative dielectric constant and refractive index, i.e. the effective dielectric constant and refractive index were increased. As a result, the contrast ratio increased significantly, and the driving and threshold voltages decreased distinctly. These results may be useful for electro-optics devices.

Catalytic transfer hydrogenation of the C═O bond has been considered to be one of the most important processes for the synthesis of fuels and chemicals. In this study, we have developed a metal-free transfer hydrogenation of furfural into furfuryl alcohol and some other valuable carbonyl compounds into alcohols as the hydrogen donors. Hydroxyapatite-encapsulated magnetic γ-Fe2O3 (γ-Fe2O3@HAP) acted as a magnetic base to promote this transfer hydrogenation with iso-propanol as the hydrogen donor. The catalytic performance of the γ-Fe2O3@HAP catalyst was greatly affected by the structure of alcohol. iso-Propanol was the best hydrogen donor for the transfer hydrogenation. In addition, the reaction temperature and the catalyst loading also affected this reaction. The highest yield of furfuryl alcohol reached 91.7% at a furfural conversion of 96.2%. Furthermore, this method was also useful for the transfer hydrogenation of other important carbonyl compounds into value-added chemicals and fuels. After the reaction, the γ-Fe2O3@HAP catalyst could be easily collected with the assistant of a magnet, and reused for six runs without the loss of its catalytic activity.

Micromotors have hold great promise for environmental remediation. Herein, we reported a novel γ-Fe 2 O 3 @Ag-mSiO 2 NH 2 magnetic Janus micromotor for dynamic removal of heavy metal ions and organic pollutants from water. The as-prepared Janus micromotors displayed unique core-shell structure composed of amino-functionalized meso‑SiO 2 shell and γ-Fe 2 O 3 magnetic core, and could be propelled by O 2 bubbles generated by Ag-catalyzed decomposition of H 2 O 2 . This Janus micromotor could move with a high velocity of 203.06 ± 10.6 μm s −1 (about 253.8 body lengths s –1 ) in 10 wt.% H 2 O 2 solution. γ-Fe 2 O 3 @Ag-mSiO 2 NH 2 magnetic Janus micromotor showed much higher removal capacities for Cu 2+ (15.59 mg g −1 ) and doxycycline (31.45 mg g −1 ) than its static control samples due to the synergy of self-propulsive movement and amino-functionalized porous core-shell structure. Furthermore, the magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 cores enabled the remote magnetic control on the movement direction and magnetic recycling. This work provides a new strategy for environmental pollutants treatment.

A series of honeycomb-like hierarchical hollow nanostructured magnetic catalysts, γ-Fe2O3@M3Al-LDH@Au25-x (x represents determined mass of gold in wt%), have been successfully fabricated by modified electrostatic adsorption of water-soluble captopril-capped Au25 nanoclusters (Au25Capt18) on pre-prepared magnetic supports, Fe3O4@M3Al-LDH (M = Ni, Mg, or Cu/Mg (0.5/2.5), LDH: layered double hydroxide) followed by proper calcination. The characterization results show that the low Au-loading samples, γ-Fe2O3@Ni3Al-LDH@Au25-x (x = 0.053, 0.11), show nearly atomically precise Au25 nanoclusters (Au25NCs) (∼1.4 ± 0.3–1.9 ± 0.6 nm) dispersed on the surface of the Ni3Al-LDH shell, while the catalysts, γ-Fe2O3@M3Al-LDH@Au25-x (x ∼ 0.2), display slightly aggregated Au25NCs on the LDH shell with sizes of ∼3.0 ± 1.3, 3.3 ± 1.2, and 4.2 ± 1.5 nm for Ni-, Mg-, and CuMg-based catalysts, respectively, related to varied synergy between Au25NCs and magnetic LDH supports at slightly higher Au loadings. All the γ-Fe2O3@M3Al-LDH@Au25-x catalysts exhibit much higher catalytic activity for the oxidation of 1-phenylethanol under atmospheric O2, without basic additives, in toluene than Fe3O4@Mg3Al-LDH@Au prepared by a traditional deposition–precipitation method. The catalyst, γ-Fe2O3@Ni3Al-LDH@Au25-x, presents even higher alcohol oxidation activity than γ-Fe2O3@Mg3Al-LDH@Au25-0.21 and γ-Fe2O3@Cu0.5Mg2.5Al-LDH@Au25-0.2 and, particularly, γ-Fe2O3@Ni3Al-LDH@Au25-0.053 exhibits the highest activity (TOF: 112 498 h−1) for the aerobic oxidation of 1-phenylethanol under solvent-free conditions and can be applied for a variety of alcohols, this being mainly attributed to its nearly atomically precise Au25NCs and remarkable Au25NCs–LDH–magnetic core three-phase synergistic interaction, along with its abundant Ni-OH sites. Moreover, γ-Fe2O3@Ni3Al-LDH@Au25-0.053 can be easily separated, by simply applying an external magnetic field, and reused for more than ten runs without significant loss of activity, giving the magnetic catalysts long-term stability. These observations make Fe3O4@LDH a universal green platform to support other noble or non-precious metal nanoparticles by using a metal nanocluster precursor method to construct desired metal-loaded ecofriendly catalysts that can be applied in a broad range of heterogeneous catalysis processes.

A series of TiO 2 and γ-Fe 2 O 3 co-doped graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets ( x TiO 2 /γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO) were prepared by a facile self-assembly method. The characterization results show that the x TiO 2 /γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO have the advantages of narrow band gap energies (<2.47 eV), and high structure stability. The incorporation of TiO 2 into γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO composite dramatically enhances the catalytic activity, and the 0.03TiO 2 /γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO composite exhibits the highest catalytic efficiency (99%) for ciprofloxacin (CIP) degradation (10 mg/L, 50 ml) within 140 min under visible light, which is ~1.5 times higher than that of γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO composite without TiO 2 . Furthermore, the photo-Fenton like mechanism was proposed by quenching experiment and electrochemistry method. The intermediates of the CIP degradation were analyzed by the assistance of LC-MS technology, which provides insight into the pathway of CIP degradation.

The exploration of a new family of flexible and high-performance electromagnetic shielding materials is of great significance to the next generation of intelligent electronic products. In this paper, we report a simple magnetic-electrospinning (MES) method for the preparation of a magnetic flexible film, γ-Fe2O3nanoparticle-embedded polymeric nanofibers. By introducing the extra magnetic field force on γ-Fe2O3nanoparticles within composite fibers, the critical voltage for spinning has been reduced, along with decreased fiber diameters. The MES fibers showed increased strength for the magnetic field alignment of the micro magnets, and the attraction between them assisted the increase in fiber strength. The MES fibers show modifications of the magnetic properties and electrical conductivity, thus leading to better electromagnetic shielding performance.

Oxalate enhanced mechanism of Fe 3 O 4 @γ-Fe 2 O 3 was developed to provide novel insight into catalytic process regulation of iron oxide catalysts in heterogeneous UV-Fenton system. And the iron oxide composite of Fe 3 O 4 @γ-Fe 2 O 3 was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The results showed that large amount of iron could be leached from catalyst in the presence of oxalate, which promoted the homogeneous UV-Fenton reactions in solution. Orange II degradation could be significantly enhanced with the increase of the ratio of homogeneous UV-Fenton process to heterogeneous UV-Fenton process. The optimum concentration of oxalate determined by experiment was 0.5 mM in oxalate enhanced heterogeneous UV-Fenton system. On this condition, the pseudo-first-order rate constant value of Orange II degradation was 0.314 min −1 , which was 2.3 times as high as that in heterogeneous UV-Fenton system. The removal rates of color and TOC were 100% and 86.6% after 20 min and 120 min treatment, respectively. In addition, the iron ions in solution could be almost completely adsorbed back to the catalyst surface in later degradation stages of Orange II. During the recycle experiments, the results showed that the increase of pH in solution and the sorption of intermediates on the catalyst surface would hinder oxalate enhanced process and lead to a decrease of degradation rate of Orange II in oxalate enhanced heterogeneous UV-Fenton system.
