s The stability of solvent-resistant nanofiltration (SRNF) membranes, such as integrally skinned asymmetric (ISA) and thin-film composite (TFC) membranes, in polar aprotic solvents must be improved if they are to meet increasingly complex industrial demands. The stability of the former membranes can be improved by forming crosslinked rigid chains, such as polybenzimidazoles and polyimides, but this requires time-consuming treatment processes. Conversely, the latter membranes are easy to fabricate but lack efficient active sites for crosslinking and structural rigidity. Herein, we present a fabrication strategy combining the characteristics of both types of membranes. We first utilize amino-functional porphyrins as polyaromatic units to form rigid polyamide networks by vacuum-assisted interfacial polymerization, simultaneously providing active sites for further crosslinking, which is accomplished by immersion in FeCl 2 /dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution to directly establish Fe-O-Fe bridges between porphyrin centers to form a stable network. The Fe-O-Fe-bridged porphyrin networks are solvent-stable in DMSO. Furthermore, they achieve outstanding molecular separation (96.2% rejection of methyl orange, 327 Da) and limited molecular-weight-cutoff change (from 360 to 420 Da) during alternating MeOH and DMSO filtration, along with long-term recovery efficiency (> 96.7% over seven days). Thus, our study provides a promising strategy for the facile development and fabrication of efficient, robust SRNF membranes.

The assembly of different Metal organic framework (MOFs) into hybrid heterostructures has proven to be a promising strategy that can effectively break through the limited regulatory capacity of single metal sites. Here, an S-scheme heterostructure (Fe 3 Ni-MOF) based on homologous ligands (1,4-phthalic acid) of ultra-thin Ni-MOF and Fe-MOF nanoparticles with directional electron transport channels, was developed and used it for photoreduction of CO 2 . Under the S-scheme electric field mechanism, the photogenerated carrier can achieve efficient directional separation through Fe–O–Ni atomic bond, which significantly reduces the energy barrier of the rate-determining step. Results show that the performance of Fe 3 Ni-MOF (63.5 μmol g –1 ) was 20 and 3.2 times higher than that of Ni-MOF and Fe-MOF, respectively, and exhibits excellent CO selectivity (96.4%) and stability. Transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy revealed the two-molecular-layers structure of Ni-MOF and the micro-assembly structure of Fe 3 Ni-MOF, which can shorten the electron transport distance and increase the molecular mass transfer rate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron spin resonance and electron density difference calculations reveal that interfacial electric fields and atomic bonds work together to promote directional carrier separation, resulting in the accumulation of holes on Ni-MOF and electrons on Fe-MOF. The Gibbs free energy calculation and in-situ Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy validate that the micro-assembled S-scheme heterostructures with directional electron transport channels can significantly reduce the activation energy barrier of the reaction. This study not only proves the feasibility of constructing MOFs S-scheme heterostructures using homologous ligands, but also provides a new way to overcome the limitations of monometallic MOFs. This strategy is expected to open up a new avenue to design efficient photocatalysts.

In this paper, the ultrafine Fe-O compound/ammonium perchlorate (AP) nanocomposites were prepared via in-suit growth method. The structure and morphology of the nanocomposites were characterized by infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersion X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) test. The results showed that the prepared Fe-O compound nanoparticles were amorphous state and deduced as 2L-ferrihydrite. The size of Fe-O compound/AP nanocomposites could be effectively controlled by changing the recrystallization condition. 2L-ferrihydrite nanoparticles was evenly dispersed in the nanocomposites proved by EDS and TEM analysis. Furthermore, the thermal decomposition of Fe-O compound/AP nanocomposites was analysized by TG-DSC method. The prepared 2L-ferrihydrite nanoparticles of the nanocomposites showed good catalytic effect on AP because of their decreasing the decomposition temperature and increasing the total heat release of AP.

Nanocomposites consisting of metal oxide and carbon materials are usually preferred as electrode for electrochemical energy storage. Nonetheless, their unsatisfied capacitance hinders the reached energy density of aqueous supercapacitors (SCs). Herein, Fe 2 O 3 /carbon heterointerface was constructed on porous carbon fiber (PCF), which could serve as an efficient active site for stabilizing K + and Na + storage. The theoretical calculations revealed the enhanced accumulation and transfer of charges around the Fe 2 O 3 /carbon interface, thus favoring the electron transfer and boosting the faradaic reaction. The interactions of Fe 2 O 3 and PCF was found to simultaneously cause faster ion transfer and more surface charge storage, which made the as-prepared Fe 2 O 3 @PCF electrode deliver a superior SCs performance in 2 M KCl or 1 M Na 2 SO 4 electrolyte. The asymmetric aqueous supercapacitor devices consisted of Fe 2 O 3 @PCF and MnO 2 /CC electrodes with maximum operating potential of 2.0 V achieved a high areal energy density of 0.126 mWh cm −2 at a power density of 1.2 mW cm −2 along with good stability.

Electrocatalytic glycerol oxidation reaction to produce high-value organic chemicals has research significance for managing the overproduction of glycerol and handling the energy crisis. Herein, a copper-based self-supporting catalytic electrode with a dynamic Fe-O-Cu optimized coordination (Fe-CuO x /CF) was prepared. The oxygen-bridged asymmetric coordination structure (Fe-O-Cu) optimized the electronic configuration and promoted the formation of the crucial intermediate species. After Fe was embedded in the lattice of copper oxides, a remarkable enhancement in the adsorption capacity of OH - and glycerol was confirmed. As a result, Fe-CuO x /CF exhibited an excellent production capacity of formate, with high faradaic efficiency and selectivity values of 93.65 % and 95.10 %. Concurrent production of formate and high purity hydrogen was achieved in the double-electrode flow electrolyzer. This work provides guiding significance for the optimization of the catalytic coordination and the design of high-efficiency transition metal-based catalysts for electrooxidation of biomass platform molecules.

Low back pain (LBP) resulting from sciatic nerve compression presents major challenges in pain management, as traditional therapies provide only short-term relief and pose risks of systemic toxicity. In this study, an innovative Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8-RVC (FZR) dual-responsive nanoplatform is introduced that integrates magnetic targeting with pH-sensitive, sustained drug release to overcome these limitations. The FZR nanoplatform encapsulates ropivacaine (RVC) within the ZIF-8-coated Fe 3 O 4 core, enabling precise and prolonged analgesia at the injury site through magnetic guidance and acid-triggered release. In vitro and in vivo assessments indicate that FZR achieves high drug loading, sustained release in acidic environments, and excellent biocompatibility, significantly extending analgesic effects in chronic nerve injury models while minimizing systemic exposure. Behavioral tests and molecular analyses in LBP rat models confirm that FZR effectively suppresses pain-related neuronal activity and central sensitization markers. This dual-responsive nanoplatform FZR offers a safe, long-lasting, and targeted therapeutic approach, holding strong potential for advancing pain relief in LBP and related neuropathic pain conditions.

Black TiO2 and metal–organic frameworks (MOF) are great materials with light-harvesting ability, redox power and consequently catalytic activity. Here, the integration of MIL-100(Fe) with TiO2(B) composite was designed for photocatalytic application, which greatly promoted light-harvesting and charge transfer. As expected, the integrated TiO2(B)/MIL-100(Fe) composite showed high photocatalytic activity due to unique Fe–O–Ti bonds that were constructed, which acted as an electronic tunnel to reduce electronic transfer resistance between MIL-100(Fe) and TiO2(B). In addition, the presence of Fe–O clusters in MIL-100(Fe) can also promote the charge dissociation and improve catalytic activity via the Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycle. This achievement would help us to understand and design charge transfer pathways in the integration of MOF/semiconductor photocatalysts.

Transition metals with 3d unoccupied orbitals have superior catalytic activity, but inherent high spin suppresses their adsorption capability, leading to sluggish polysulfide conversion kinetics for Li–S batteries. Herein, we provide Fe–O–Si bridge bonds to manipulate eg filling and induce a high-to-medium spin transition of Fe3+ sites, which enhances polysulfide adsorption and facilitates sulfur redox reaction kinetics. The resultant cathodes exhibit outstanding performances under high sulfur loading, which can deliver a high battery specific energy of 1061 mA h·g–1 even after 100 cycles in Li–S pouch batteries. This work provides new insights into the kinetic and multi-step conversion mechanism of the sulfur redox reaction process, helping in the understanding and design of spin-dependent catalysts.

Ceramic dentures differ from those produced by additive manufacturing, and manual polishing is employed for ceramic dentures due to their hard-brittle nature, complex shapes, and thin-walled structures with thicknesses less than 1.0 mm. This presents challenges for the medical and manufacturing industries. To address these challenges, we prepared a novel ternary composite of Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB (Prussian blue) to establish a photo-Fenton system. This composite enhances the transport of photogenerated electrons and facilitates the generation of radicals, demonstrating high photocatalytic activity for the polishing and degradation of pollutants without the need for sacrificial agents. Meanwhile, Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB was utilized to develop a new photocatalytic magnetorheological polishing slurry. The slurry consisted of sorbitol, hydrogen peroxide, Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB, and ceria (0.025 wt. %). After polishing, the surface roughness (Sa) decreased from 5.538 to 0.081 μm, representing a reduction of 98.54 % compared to the pristine surface. Due to photogenerated hydroxyl radicals, the Si-OH and Li-OH bonds can be created on the surface of the ceramic dentures, facilitating defects removal. Before and after polishing, the ceramic dentures enhanced the inhibition rates of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus from 50 % to 74 % and from 49 % to 80 % over the course of one day, respectively. Through irradiation with simulated sunlight, Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB generates electrons, holes, and hydroxyl radicals, leading to the degradation of amoxicillin (AMOX) and polysorbate (PS20) by up to 99 % within 60 min. Additionally, Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB was successfully separated and reused from the developed slurry. Therefore, the designed and developed novel ternary composite, Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 @PB, achieves photocatalysis, photodegradation, and recycling, offering new solutions for the medical, manufacturing, and environmental industries.

The low sulfur selectivity of Fe-based H2S-selective catalytic oxidation catalysts is still a problem, especially at a high O2 content. This is alleviated here through anchoring FeOx nanoclusters on UiO-66 via the formation of Fe–O–Zr bonds. The introduced FeOx species exist in the form of FeIII and FeII. Therein the FeIII–O species are the predominant active sites for H2S-oxidation. The formed Fe–O–Zr bonds strengthen the redox cycle of FeIII/FeII through promoting electron transfer from Fe to Zr. The FeII–O species can activate molecular oxygen to oxidize H2S into elemental S, which accelerates the formation rate of atomic S, hindering its further oxidation into SO2. The combination of these factors empowers the catalysts, enabling 100% H2S conversion and 98.2% sulfur yield. The catalyst also has satisfactory stability with the sulfur selectivity only decreasing from 98.2% to 91.3% after the reaction going on 50 h. The decreased sulfur selectivity might be caused by the deterioration of pores and the deposition of elemental S on the surface. The former hinders the diffusion of sulfur oligomers timely from pores to the gas phase, while the latter is suspected to capture electrons to promote its further reaction with molecular oxygen.

Fabrication of active and durable non-noble metal heterogeneous electrocatalysts to settle the relatively slow kinetic process and poor stability during the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) process is of great significance. Herein, we fabricate in-situ 2D Fe-based trimetallic complex spinel oxide nanosheets (FeCoNi)O 4 via a polyethylene glycol-barbituric acid deep eutectic solvent-assisted route. Multiple analytical characterizations illustrate a deep understanding of the structure and composition of (FeCoNi)O 4 , disclosing Fe, Co, and Ni ions occupy both tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated positions. Meanwhile, the synergistic actions of preparing multiple-cations substitution and constructing oxygen vacancy activate covalent Fe–O–Co bonds in (FeCoNi)O 4 . Due to the active bimetallic Fe–O–Co sites, enhanced electronic conductivity and unique structure stability, the synthesized 2D (FeCoNi)O 4 nanosheets exhibit excellent OER performance with relatively low overpotential (421 mV for 1000 mA/cm 2 ) and long-term stability (720 mA/cm 2 for 6 h) in alkaline media, which is much better than that of Fe-based bi/monometallic spinel oxides. In-situ Raman spectra and quasi-in-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results depict that O-bridged Fe–O–Co bimetallic sites promote the formation of μ(O–O) intermediates and undergo the direct O 2 evolution route, thus accelerating OER.

Nowadays, simultaneous removal of organic pollutants and heavy metals from wastewater is still a complicated task with great challenge. Herein, a newly-designed Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite with an active N-Fe-O bridge was prepared by coupling Fe-doped g-C 3 N 4 (namely Fe-g-C 3 N 4 ) and α-Fe 2 O 3 . Interestingly, the combination of Fe-g-C 3 N 4 with α-Fe 2 O 3 broadened the light absorption region and restrained the photoinduced electron-hole pair recombination. Meanwhile, elaborate construction of N-Fe-O bridges based on coordination interaction can reduce electrochemical impedance and facilitate electron transfer, thereby prolonging the charge lifetime. As expected, the Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite displayed excellent photocatalytic performance in simultaneous removal of tetracycline (TC) and Cr(VI). More importantly, Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 -mediated electron transfer from TC to Cr(VI) also played an essential role on TC oxidation and Cr(VI) reduction under visible light. Both experimental analyses and theoretical calculations revealed that the migration route of photogenerated carriers followed a direct Z-scheme heterojunction mechanism under built-in electric field. The Fe-g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 composite with great stability also displayed promising practical application potential. In short, the current work not only provided a highly-efficient photocatalyst with N-Fe-O bridges but also shared new insights into the simultaneous removal of organic pollutants and heavy metals.
