In this study, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnO:La microspheres were successfully prepared. The microspheres have the advantages of both ZnO doped with La and the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 structure such that the former improves the photocatalytic activity of ZnO and the latter can be reused. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), a field emission scanning electron microscope (SEM), a field emission transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnO:La microspheres. Methyl orange was used as the model molecule to study the effect of the Zn 2+ concentration and the doping amount of La on the photocatalytic activity of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnO:La microspheres. Results show that in the synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnO:La microspheres, photocatalytic activity of the microspheres is enhanced first and weakened later with the increase of Zn 2+ concentration. In the La doping process, the photocatalytic activity of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnO:La microspheres is enhanced with the increase in the La doping amount. The magnetic photocatalysts not only have high photocatalytic activity, but also can be reused. After being reused five times, the photocatalyst's degradation rate of methyl orange is still as high as 81%, which shows that magnetic photocatalysts have prospective wider applications in photocatalytic degradation of dye wastewater.

Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @ZnSe composite nanoparticles with superparamagnetism and luminescence have been prepared by a facile chemical method. Nontoxic fluorescent ZnSe quantum dots were assembled around the Fe 3 O 4 -silica core–shell nanocomposite via chemical bonds formed between –COOH and –NH 2 . Transmission electron microscopy images show that the nanocomposites are approximately spherical and between 50 nm and 80 nm in size. The bifunctional nanocomposites exhibit superparamagnetic behavior and good fluorescence intensity. Magnetic attraction test, vibrating sample magnetometer at 300 K, UV–visible absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy were applied to characterize the magnetic/fluorescent properties of the nanocomposites.

In this study, EDTA-functionalized Fe 3 O 4 (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -EDTA) was prepared by silanization reaction between N-(trimethoxysilylpropyl) ethylenediamine triacetic acid (EDTA-silane) and hydroxyl groups for Pb(II) and Cu(II) removal from aqueous solutions. Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -EDTA composites were characterized using SEM, TEM, EDX, FTIR, XPS, TGA and saturated magnetization techniques. Maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity was found to be 114.94 mg g −1 with SiO 2 /EDTA molar ratio of 2.5:1. The adsorption rate was significantly fast and the equilibrium was reached within 10 min. The optimum pH was recorded to be 5.0. The maximum adsorption capacity of the studied heavy metal ions calculated by Langmuir model followed the order: Cu(II) (0.58 mmol g −1 ) > Pb(II) (0.55 mmol g −1 ) ≈ Ni(II) (0.55 mmol g −1 ) > Cd(II) (0.45 mmol g −1 ). Moreover, Pb(II) and Cu(II) adsorption capacities were not significantly affected by co-existing cations and NOM. These results suggested that this adsorbent can be considered as a promising adsorbent to remove Pb(II) and Cu(II) from wastewaters.

Since Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles synthesized by plant extracts possess good bio-compatibility and superparamagnetic properties, the possibility of these could be used as a carrier in drug delivery. In this work, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), an anti-cancer drug, loaded on glutaric anhydride-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu) was investigated at varying pH values for effective drug delivery. Various factors affecting the adsorption of DOX onto the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were examined, where the adsorption efficiency of DOX reached 92% at a concentration of 20 mg/L employing 10 mg of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu at 303 K in pH 7.4. However, the adsorption efficiency of DOX was decreased to 18% at acidic pH value down to 3.0, implicating that the drug releasing process was controlled by pH. Adsorption kinetics was fitting to pseudo-second-order and the isothermal adsorption conformed to Freundlich isotherm. The morphology and surface composition of the synthesized Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were characterized by SEM, TEM , and N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, revealing that the specific surface area being 62.6 m 2 /g and the size ranging from ~30 to 50 nm. The zeta potential results indicated that Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were negatively charged in various pH from 3 to 8.5. Characterizations by FTIR and UV–Vis techniques suggested that the DOX was absorbed and it can be delivered by Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu.

An available route was provided for simultaneous detection and effective adsorption toward Cd 2+ , Zn 2+ and Cu 2+ . The magnetic Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 nanoparticles were prepared and functionalized with N-(quinoline-8-yl)-2-(3-triethoxysilyl-propylamino)-acetamide (QTPA) by first using the “grafting from” method, which made the whole process of surface modification on Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 nanoparticles simpler and more effective. The as-synthesized QTPA functionalized Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 nanoparticles exhibited different fluorescence responses for Cd 2+ (doderblue), Zn 2+ (deepskyblue) and Cu 2+ (tomato red) illuminated under a 365 nm UV light, while other ions, such as Ag + , Hg 2+ , Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , Mn 2+ , Pb 2+ , Cr 3+ and Fe 3+ , gave no visible changes under identical experimental conditions. The eye-perceived fluorescent changes only toward Cd 2+ , Zn 2+ and Cu 2+ could serve as the available proofs for the qualitative analysis of the three cations. The UV–vis spectra results showed that the multifunctional nanoparticles exhibited fluorescence enhancements for Cd 2+ and Zn 2+ , and fluorescence quenching for Cu 2+ . The adsorption experiments showed that the nanomaterial was a good candidate for selective removal and enrichment of Cd 2+ , Zn 2+ and Cu 2+ , and had the high adsorption efficiency toward Cd 2+ (95.29%), Zn 2+ (92.37%), and Cu 2+ (91.06%). Moreover, the functionalized composites had strong magnetic sensitivity, which could make them susceptible in an external magnetic field, and easy to separate from the solid and liquid phase. More specific to this work, simultaneous fluorescence determination of Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , and Zn 2+ by naked eye was proposed based on QTPA functionalized Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 nanoparticles.

The size- and shape-controlled Fe3O4@SiO2 nanocomposites were successfully synthesized via the sol–gel method. The results showed that the size, shape, and property of the products were directly influenced by the amount of TEOS, and the concentration
of water-based magnetic fluid in the coating process. The morphology and properties of the products were characterized by TEM, SEM, X-ray powder diffraction, IR and EDS. The Fe3O4@SiO2 composites with easily-controlled size arranged from 58 to 835 nm could
be synthesized by adjusting the experimental parameters. When TEOS amount is 1 mL and the concentration of magnetic fluid were 30.0 and 10.0 mg/mL respectively, chain-like and peanuts-like well-dispersed Fe3O4@SiO2 particles with clear core–shell structure
were obtained. These size- and shape-controlled Fe3O4@SiO2 composites may have potential application in the field of targeted drug delivery and MRI contrast agent.

Aniline is recalcitrant pollutant and its efficient and cost-effective removal is greatly needed. According to the existing methods in the laboratory, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @BiO 1.8 ·0.04H 2 O/Ag 3 PO 4 (FSBAP) magnetic nanocomposites were prepared and the photocatalytic properties were also evaluated with aniline as model pollutant. The experimental data suggested that the nanocomposites FSBAP could effectively degrade organic pollutants under visible light. The degradation rate of 250 mL aniline solution (10 mg/L) with 1.20 g/L FSBAP catalyst was 88.06% under visible light for 150 min. FSBAP nanocomposites showed good reusability and recyclability after five runs. In addition, scavengers trapping experiments proved that photogenerated holes (h + ) played an important role in photocatalytic reaction. The possible mechanism was also proposed. The results revealed that FSBAP exhibited high reusability and stability in degrading aniline.

Whereas growing numbers of strong-absorption materials have been synthesized in recent years, it is also necessary to design broad-bandwidth, low-thickness, high-intensity absorbers. The ternary Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MnO 2 hybrids were fabricated via hydrothermal and hydrolysis processes, combined with typical core-shell structure characteristics and heterogeneous properties, further generating interfacial polarization behavior and enhancing anisotropy. Investigations of micromorphology manifested the hierarchical characteristic via the presence of inner mesoporous Fe 3 O 4 cores, outer SiO 2 layers (approximately 10 nm) and MnO 2 nanosheets as the surface of the hybrids. On the basis of rational design, the optimized multi-layers absorber exhibited excellent absorption performance with optimal reflection loss (RL min ) of −50.2 dB at 13.9 GHz, and the effective absorption band (EAB) is up to 5.1 GHz from 11.5 GHz to 16.6 GHz with the thickness of 2.6 mm. Due to the large surfaces, high porosity as well as the synergistic effect derived from the magnetic Fe 3 O 4 cores and dielectric SiO 2 @MnO 2 layers, this effective strategy may be endowed with high potential to design high-efficient absorbers.

A novel core–shell covalently functionalized Fe 3 O 4 coated SiO 2 decorated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –MWCNTs) adsorbent was synthesized and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrum (FTIR), Thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The pentachlorophenol (PCP) adsorption effect factors of initial concentration, contact time, solution pH and temperature were investigated in detail. It was found the absorption capacity was strongly depended on pH, and the maximum adsorption value for PCP (96.4 mg/g) was obtained at pH 2.5. The equilibrium was attained within 30 min, and the adsorption kinetics was better described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The data pointed out excellent fit to Freundlich isotherm model. Thermodynamic parameters such as standard enthalpy (Δ H θ ), standard entropy (Δ S θ ) and standard free energy (Δ G θ ) showed that the adsorption of PCP onto Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –MWCNTs was spontaneous, endothermic and random within the temperature range of 288–318 K. The results indicate that the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –MWCNTs adsorbent is a potential low-cost effective material for PCP removal from contaminated wastewater.

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is one of the most important platform molecules and could be transformed into a variety of fuel additives and high value-added chemicals. Multiple catalyst systems have been developed for the conversion of carbohydrates to HMF, but there are still unavoidable problems, including high temperature and pressure, difficult recovery of solvent, corrosion of equipment, poor catalyst circulation, etc. Herein, a new magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2@mSiO2-TaOPO4 catalyst for the preparation of HMF from fructose in 2-pentanol was developed. The structures of the catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, TSM, EDS, SEM, XRD and VSM. The 2-pentanol solvent is not only conducive to the production of HMF, but also enables the reaction to be carried out at a lower pressure. The highest yield of HMF (85.4%) was obtained using 20 wt% catalyst under 10% substrate concentration (0.5 g of fructose) at 120 °C for 3 h. The catalysts can be easily separated by magnetism. The slight decrease in catalyst activity after 7 cycles was mainly due to the loss of catalyst during the cycle operation. Simultaneously, the total yield of HMF was 51.3% after scale-up to 15 g of fructose, showing the possible industrial application potential of this catalyst system.

This study reports on the synthesis and electromagnetic wave-absorbing properties of Ag/Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 under various magnetic field intensities. The nanocomposites were prepared via a solvothermal method followed by a Stober proces, during which uniform magnetic fields were applied to induce the formation of one-dimensional nanochain structures. Results indicate that the Ag/Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 exhibit enhanced wave-absorbing capabilities under strong magnetic fields. Specifically, at a magnetic field of 600 mT, the composite achieves a minimum reflection loss value of −48.61 dB, accompanied by a broad effective absorption bandwidth. Furthermore, the microwave absorption performance of samples oriented horizontally along the circumference surface during preparation shows a significant improvement compared to non-oriented samples. It is attributed to the optimized electromagnetic wave transmission pathways and improved electrical conductivity and magnetic loss capabilities facilitated by the nanochain structures. Specifically, the nanochains effectively lengthen the wave propagation distance, promote charge migration, and intensify natural and exchange resonance effects. This research not only broadens the design paradigm for electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials but also offers novel strategies for their development.
