Solvent extraction has emerged as an extremely effective and highly promising approach for extracting lithium ions from salt lake brine, primarily due to its remarkable Li + selectivity, cost-effectiveness, and high efficiency. In this paper, the utilization of bis-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)-phosphinic acid (Cyanex 272) as an iron-fixed reagent in an organic solution, along with tributyl phosphate (TBP) as the extractant and FeCl 3 as the co-extractant, is proposed. Compared to the traditional TBP-FeCl 3 system, TBP-Cyanex 272 extraction system holds potential advantages in terms of a more environmentally friendly extraction process. Particularly, during the stripping process, the coordination of Fe 3+ with Cyanex 272 and TBP at a lower Cl − concentration allows Fe 3+ to be retained in the organic phase, thereby facilitating a greener extraction process. This method has effectively overcome the technical challenges associated with TBP-FeCl 3 systems, such as strong acid stripping and strong base saponification. Additionally, as an environmentally friendly extraction system, TBP-Cyanex 272 demonstrates exceptional performance in terms of lithium extraction efficiency and phase separation.

Untreated natural cotton fabrics are hydrophobic due to the high content of pectin and waxes, and the fabrics need to improve the wettability by scouring for the demands of the subsequent processing such as dyeing and finishing. In this study, a new scouring method for cotton fabrics was developed by pectin hydrolase combined with Fenton system (Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 ). The mechanism of pectin degradation by pectinase combined with Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 was investigated. The results showed that α-1,4-glycosidic bonds of water-soluble pectin could be degraded more efficiently by pectinase hydrolysis and Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 oxidation. The fabrics scoured with pectinase → Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 had less wetting time (4.25 s) and higher vertical wicking height (9.80 cm) compared to the fabrics treated with pectinase alone (> 120 s, 5.15 cm). The results of bleaching and dyeing experiments indicated that the whiteness and dyeing properties of the fabrics were not negatively affected by pectinase → Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 treatment, and the strength loss of the fabrics (11.79%) was lower than that of the fabrics with conventional NaOH treatment (20.16%). The results of the experiments in the pilot-scale machine showed that various performance indicators of the fabrics scoured by pectinase → Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 reached the level of the conventional NaOH treatment, which demonstrated the possibility for practical application of pectinase → Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 scouring. The cotton fabric scouring using pectinase → Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 is an effective and feasible new method with advantages such as environmental friendliness, mild treatment conditions, and good treatment effect.

Traditional water-based flame-retardant finishing causes serious pollution due to the use of a large number of chemicals, and color change is easily generated since the flame-retardant finishing takes place after the cotton dyeing. An eco-friendly flame-retardant finishing of dyed cotton was explored using 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO), 2,2′-oxybis-(5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2,-dioxaphosphorinane-2,2′-disulfide) (5060), SiO2, DOPO/SiO2 (1:1), 5060/SiO2 (1:1) and DOPO/5060 (1:1) in supercritical CO2. The effects of finishing time and pressure as well as temperature on the flame-retarding properties of the cotton were discussed. As expected, samples with the higher weight gain rates exhibit a lower after-flame time as well as after-glow time. In different flame-retardant systems, cotton fabric finished with DOPO presents the lowest after-flame time of 20.6 s and after-glow time of 0 s at 130°C, 22 MPa and 120 min due to its biphenyl ring and O=P-O bond. Moreover, tiny fluctuations of L*, a*, b* and K/S values occurred from 32.10 to 34.24, 5.78 to 6.05, –37.89 to –37.64 and 10.59 to 10.81 when the cotton samples were treated with DOPO, 5060, SiO2, DOPO/SiO2 (1:1), 5060/SiO2 (1:1) and DOPO/5060 (1:1), proving that no significant negative role in the color property of the samples occurs after supercritical CO2 finishing.

A new halogen-free and formaldehyde-free ammonium salt of melamine hexa(methylphosphonic acid) (AMHMPA) was facilely synthesized as flame retardant (FR) material under water-solvent and low temperature condition to counter inflammable cotton fabric fire hazard. The reactive P O(NH 4 ) 2 and PO(OH) 2 groups from AMHMPA reacted with cotton reactive OH groups to form P O C bonds. A layer of AMHMPA was coated onto the treated-cotton surface, and a carbon skeleton was formed after combustion. The char residue percentages of the treated-cotton fabrics and untreated fabric were 38.5 and 3.6% at 600 °C, respectively. The phosphorus contents for the control, treated-cotton and burned-cotton were 0, 37.499 and 24.896%, respectively. The LOIs of cotton treated with 30–90 g/L AMHMPA reached 32.0–43.0%. After 50 laundering cycles (LCs), the LOIs still maintained 26.0–33.4%. AMHMPA-treated cotton had no cytotoxicity towards the environment and humans. These results demonstrated that AMHMPA-treated cotton exhibited eco-friendly, outstanding durability and excellent flame retardancy. TG-IR and cone calorimeter results confirmed AMHMPA condensation phase flame retardant mechanism.

Aqueous reactive dyeing of cotton is considered to be environmentally unfriendly owing to its high consumption of water and salt as well as large discharge of wastewater. However, the industrial applications of current alternative dyeing technologies are difficult to realize due to different problems such as poor dyeing quality, environmental pollution and high cost. Herein, we developed a dyeing approach using hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (HDES) composed of thymol from thyme leaves and menthol from Mentho haplocalvx Bing (two natural compounds with pharmacological function) to overcome the problems caused by reactive dyeing of cotton. HDES dyeing approach could achieve excellent dyeing properties of cotton by optimizing water content, pick-up and concentration of alkali solution. Dye fixation kinetics of HDES dyeing system was studied based on Lagergren pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order dynamics models, compared with aqueous dyeing system. The cotton fabrics dyed in Thy-Men system exhibited excellent levelness, satisfactory colorfastness and color strength without addition of salt. Furthermore, HDES can be reused for 5 cycles of dyeing and the dyed fabrics displayed consistently high color strength values. This dyeing approach provides substantial reduction in wastewater emission and consumption of freshwater and chemicals, which has considerable potential for promoting sustainable development of the textile industry .

Formaldehyde and other harmful gases cause environmental pollution and threaten human health. Environment-friendly coatings is an effective strategy to address these environmental and health concerns. In this study, a large-scale amorphous photonic crystals (APC) based on modified ZIF-8 (H xh -ZIF-8) with photocatalytic degradation of formaldehyde and tunable structural color were designed for eco-friendly coatings by programmable smart manufacturing. As APC unit, H xh -ZIF-8 nanoparticles with controllable diameters were synthesized utilizing solvothermal method and the −N = C = O group was introduced with thermal oxidation. The results of photocatalytic degradation revealed that H 5h -ZIF-8, through thermal oxidation, exhibited a formaldehyde degradation rate 9.8 times than that of ZIF-8. The main reactive components in photocatalysis were holes (h + ) and superoxide radicals ( · O 2 – ), showcasing both stability and reproducibility. The color and brightness of the APC were adjusted by tuning the H xh -ZIF-8 diameter. The angle-independent APC ranging from red to purple were fabricated with 177, 165 and 235 nm H xh -ZIF-8 nanoparticles in various proportions with programmable smart manufacturing. In this study, a large-scale ZIF-8-based APC was designed with programmable smart manufacturing for environment-friendly coating, which combined environmental protection technology with structural color, and paved a new strategy for the development of multifunctional materials in air quality management.

Abstract The low utilization of dyestuff in textile coloration leads to serious environmental pollution and wasting of resources. Dye/polymer nanospheres have high absorbing, reflecting and scattering light properties due to the large specific surface area, the regular shape, and the uniform size. In the present study, we report the reactive dye/poly(styrene-butyl acrylate-trimethyl ammonium chloride) composite nanosphere as a highly efficient colorant for cationic cotton fabrics. The dye contents of the four colored nanospheres can reach to 217–404 mg/g. The hydration diameters of the composite nanospheres are 83–101 nm for four different reactive dyes. They have the negative zeta potentials, approximately − 25.3 to − 37.6 mV. The reactive dye/copolymer nanospheres exhibit much more powerful coloration ability for cotton fabrics and higher dye utilization than the ordinary reactive dyes. The color depths of cotton fabrics dyed with colored nanospheres are 2.8, 4.9, 10.6 and 4.2 times of the values of the corresponding dye colored samples. The dye/copolymer nanospheres have much larger color gamut than the ordinary dyes. The color durability and levelness of the dye/copolymer nanospheres on cotton fibers are good enough for practical applications. What’s more important is that the residual dye/copolymer nanospheres in the dye bath can be reused in the next dyeing process. This novel nanosphere dyeing method does not only save the colorants but also avoid the discharging of colored sewage. Graphical abstract The reactive dye/poly(St-BA-VBT) nanospheres were successfully fabricated by adding the cationic poly(St-BA-VBT) nanospheres dispersions into reactive dye solutions. This article offered a novel dyeing method for cotton fabrics using dye/poly(St-BA-VBT) nanospheres. These colored nanospheres can endow the cotton fabrics with good color performance and avoid the discharging of colored waste water, which provide a green way for textile coloration.

The methods to modify commercially available sponge used for recovering spilled oil and organic solvent from water usually possess the drawbacks of high cost, complicated fabrication procedures and secondary pollution. Herein, a superhydrophobic magnetic melamine sponge (MS) was fabricated via in situ synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 particles and dip coating of Candelilla wax (CW). The facile modification process made a transition of MS from amphipathic nonmagnetic sponge to superhydrophobic magnetic sponge. Owning to the high porosity of MS, hierarchical microstructures of Fe 3 O 4 particles and hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain of CW, the modified MS possesses low bulk density (0.0173 g/mL), excellent absorption capacity (55–104 g/g), remote controllability, high water contact angle (WCA, 158.8°), good hydrophobicity maintenance and durability. The obtained sponge also has the abilities to continuously absorb and collect light oil from water surface assisted by a vacuum pump and to separate heavy oil under water as a filter driven by liquid weight. More importantly, our modification strategy may find a new way to prepare superhydrophobic sponge by extending the coating reagent to a series of plant waxes.

Nowadays, oil contamination has become a major reason for water pollution, and presents a global environmental challenge. Although many efforts have been devoted to the fabrication of oil/water separation materials, their practical applications are still hindered by their weak durability, poor chemical tolerance, environmental resistance, and potential negative impact on health and the environment. To overcome these drawbacks, this work offers a facile method to fabricate the eco-friendly and durable oil/water separation membrane fabrics by alkaline hydrolysis and silicon polyurethane coating. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy results demonstrate that silicon polyurethane membrane could be coated onto the surface of hydrolyzed polyester fabric and form a micro-/nano-scaled hierarchical structure. Based on this, the modified fabric could have a stable superhydrophobic property with a water contact angle higher than 150°, even after repeated washing and mechanical abrasion 800 times, as well as chemical corrosion. Moreover, the modified fabrics show excellent oil/water separation efficiency of up to 99% for various types of oil–water mixture. Therefore, this durable, eco-friendly and cost-efficient superhydrophobic fabric has great potential in large-scale oil/water separation.

In this paper, an effective and green strategy was developed to obtain aglycone isoflavones from soybean through the extraction, hydrolysis, and purification steps. Firstly, a novel ethanol-alkaline extraction method was designed and optimized. The high extraction yield (94.34%) of isoflavones was achieved under the optimal extraction conditions of pH 9.0, 70°C, 60 min, ethanol concentration of 65%, and 1:15 of the solid to liquid ratio. Then, the cellulase (GC-220) was used instead of traditional β-glucosidase to hydrolyze the glycoside isoflavones into aglycone isoflavones which gave an excellent conversion of 95%. Finally, the crude aglycone isoflavones have been purified by an environmental-friendly procedure comprised of ethanol precipitation, ethyl acetate extraction, and water rinse. The final amount of aglycone isoflavones obtained was 1.279 mg for every gram of defatted soybean by this strategy, and the final recovery, and purity of aglycone isoflavones could achieve 80.38 and 87.21%, respectively.

Applying natural dye is a green and available approach for the dyeing and simultaneous functionalizing of textiles. However, the commonly used mordant of metal ions to improve the dyeing effect results in massive toxic wastewater production, which decreases the environmentally friendly characteristics. In this work, the mordant and water substitute ability of choline chloride-ethylene glycol natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES), defined as the mixture of two or more primary metabolites at a particular composition becoming liquids via H-bond forces, was investigated during the dyeing process because it has been used as a green extraction and stability agent for the natural dye. To this end, the NADES and metal ion were used in three mordant dyeing wool and cotton processes of Platycodon Grandiflorus root dye, and the color and functionalization effect were compared to verify the method advance. The result indicated that natural deep eutectic solvent had a better effect as a mordant than the metal ion by enhancing the dye solubility, the dye uptake rate of fiber, and the dye polymerization trend via rich H-bonds among fiber, dye, and NADES. The dyed textile had an excellent functional performance, including UV resistance, antibacterial, antioxidation, and burning difficulty, with the preferable fastness. This method also showed good universality for other natural dyes and NADESs. Compared to the existing mordant dyeing technologies, the proposed technology had lower chemical reagent usage, cost, and energy consumption, whose residual solvent had good reusability for at least 10 times and better degradability. Overall, this paper supplied a potential and green approach using NADESs as alternatives to metal ions for the mordant dyeing textile using natural dye.

The icing phenomenon in nature can cause serious economic losses and security concerns. Eco-friendly anti-icing and deicing surfaces have been developed to address these issues. In this study, a photothermal superhydrophobic coating was fabricated by a facile polymerization process in the presence of micro–nano structured SiO2/TiN particles followed by a two-step spraying technology. The optimal coating displays remarkable superhydrophobic performance with a water contact angle of 159.1° and a water roll-off angle as low as 1.2°; it survives tape peeling, Taber abrasion, and solution immersion and demonstrates weather and corrosion resistance. More importantly, the SiO2/TiN coating shows excellent anti-icing/deicing property and can withstand multiple icing/thawing cycles. The excellent anti-icing/deicing performance is attributed to the robust superhydrophobic surface and the photothermal effect of TiN nanoparticles. Our fluorine-free design strategy provides important guidance for actual large-scale eco-friendly anti-icing/deicing application.
