Various controlled release calcium peroxide nanoparticles (CR-nCPs) were synthesized and their characteristics and effectiveness in trichloroethylene (TCE) degradation were assessed. In this concern, calcium peroxide nanoparticles (nCPs) were initially prepared with four different surface stabilizers (PEG 200, PVP, PVA and DEGMME) to inhibit the irreversible agglomeration of nCPs by chemical precipitation method, then CR-nCPs were further synthesized by the coating of the selected polymers on nCPs. The characterizations of nCPs and CR-nCPs were performed using XRD, FESEM, TEM, FTIR, BET and TGA techniques. The results displayed the prepared nCPs in nano size with good dispersion, reliable purity, and standard surface area. The characterizations of CR-nCPs confirmed the success of polymer coating on nCPs. The H 2 O 2 release profiles of the prepared CR-nCPs were determined by UV spectrophotometer. PVA@nCP-PVA has shown the maximum H 2 O 2 controlled release efficiency (CRE) of 50.2%. The prepared CR-nCPs were tested for TCE degradation at optimum conditions of Fe(II) = 1.1 mM and CR-nCPs = 50 mg/L. The maximum removal percentages of 99.7% after 120 min and 66% after 180 min were achieved by CR-nCPs having moderate CRE (16.0–20.3%) and high CRE (50.2%) respectively. It was found that the CRE of CR-nCPs and their TCE degradation efficiencies have an inverse relationship. The CR-nCPs with moderate CRE were further employed for investigating the effect of polymer coating with increased polymer quantity (1:40). With the increase in polymer coating quantities, TCE removal percentages of 98.17%, 82.02% and 79.29% were obtained by PEG 400@nCP-DEGMME, DEGMME@nCP-DEGMME and PEG 400@nCP-PEG 200 after 360 min, respectively. In conclusion, this work suggests that CR-nCPs with moderate and high CRE are advantageous, in long term effectiveness, to potentially degrade TCE in groundwater remediation practice.

It is of great significance for superoxide anion (O 2 •− ) detection due to its important role in regulation of biological function. The nanoscale coordination polymers (NCPs) core-shell nanostructures have attracted increasing interests for their nanosized-dependent properties. In this study, SiO 2 @Tb/guanosine 5′-monophosphate (GMP) NCPs with core-shell nanostructures was designed for O 2 •− detection. The SiO 2 @Tb/GMP NCPs core-shell nanostructures were produced by using SiO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) as template to control their nano-size. First, Tb 3+ was adsorbed on the surface of SiO 2 NPs by coordination with -COOH of SiO 2 NPs. Then the Tb/GMP NCPs shells were grown along the surface of SiO 2 NPs. The SiO 2 @Tb/GMP NCPs core-shell nanostructures were characterized with scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Zeta potential. The resulted SiO 2 @Tb/GMP NCPs core-shell nanostructures displayed strong Tb/GMP emission which decreased linearly with the increased O 2 •− concentration in the range from 5.3 nM to 6.0 μM with a limit detection of 2.18 nM. And the SiO 2 @Tb/GMP NCPs core-shell nanostructures also exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity in HEPES buffer at pH 7.4.

Dentin bonding is the most common form of human tissue repair among tissue-biomaterial adhesions, concerning billions of people's oral health worldwide. However, insufficient adhesive infiltration in the demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) always produces numerous defects in the bonding interface termed the hybrid layer, which causes high levels of bacteria-related secondary dental diseases, and less than 50% of the bonding lasts more than 5 years. Therefore, it is urgent and vital to construct an antibacterial low-defect hybrid layer to solve the durability-related problems. A DDM with a hydrogel-like surface formed by the hydration of highly-anionic non-collagenous proteins (NCPs) is firstly used as a template to electrostatically assemble polyethyleneimine (PEI). The formation of a stable antibacterial polyelectrolyte complex of PEI/NCPs rapidly eliminates NCP hydration capacity and significantly improves the infiltration of various adhesives. Simultaneously, both the PEI during the assembly and the PEI-assembled DDM can directly destroy a biofilm of S. Mutans on the DDM. Consequently, a long-term antibacterial and low-defect hybrid layer is successfully created, which greatly improves the bonding effectiveness. This helps to improve the clinical treatment of bacteria-based dental diseases and the tooth-restoration repair effect and prevent secondary dental diseases, having significance in clinical dentistry and providing insights for other tissue-biomaterial adhesions.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has great potential for the detection of marine pollutants, but it is still restricted in ultra-trace and quantitative analysis. Here, a strategy for the detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was proposed based on Au nanoscale convex polyhedrons (Au NCPs) coated with high-energy facets and embedded with 4-ATP as a probe molecule. Au NCPs acted as SERS substrates and led to limits of detection (LODs) for six common PAHs that reached 0.01 nM. Using internal calibration, the relative standard deviations (RSD) of the spectral stability and reproducibility were as low as 3.36% and 5.11%, respectively. The maximum mean relative errors (AREs) of the predicted and true values were 6.28%. The results indicate that the resulting Au NCPs improved the ultra-trace and quantitative detection of SERS, thus suggesting that the Au NCPs have practical application value in SERS.
