Europium nitrate, ammonium tungstate and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide were used, and Eu-doped WO3 (WO3:Eu3+) nanopowder was synthesized by the micro-emulsion method. Tetraethyl silicate was hydrolysed into SiO2 and WO3:Eu3+ nanopowder coated with SiO2 (SiO2/WO3:Eu3+) was obtained. The microstructure and morphology of the prepared nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and HRTEM. Results showed that the prepared nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ powders composed of WO3 of monoclinic and SiO2 of amorphous, which was spherical and granular, and the grain size reaches 50 nm. The tribological behaviour of nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ as extreme pressure and anti-wear additive in the water-based fluid was studied by a four-ball machine. The results demonstrate that nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ exhibits superior load-bearing capacity, anti-wear and anti-friction performance in water-based fluid, especially when the optimal concentration of nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ is 0.4 wt-%. WSD, COF and wear volume of the nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ decreased by 62.43%, 30.20% and 67.34%, respectively, compared with that of the water-based fluid.

ZnO:LiAc nanopaticles were successfully synthesized though a colloidal-sol technique in nonaqueous solution under ultrasonic irradiation. The luminescent characteristics from blue to red can be tunable by varying [Li]/[Zn] ratios. The possible reason of tunable luminescent characteristics
can be attributed to the increase of density of oxygen vacancies caused by Li+ adsorbed in the surface of magic-sized ZnO nanocrystals based on XRD, zeta potential and XPS results. What's more, it is found that SiO2 shell coated on ZnO:LiAc nanoparticles can improve the
surface property of ZnO nanoparticles and enhance the PL emission intensity and optical stability. Due to its excellent luminescent characteristic and optical stability, as-prepared SiO2 coated ZnO:LiAc nanoparticles may be a promising candidate for some applications in high-efficiency
low-voltage phosphor, solar cells and biological luminescent labels.

The polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hybrid luminescent micro-/nanofibers doped with the novel hybrid SiO 2 -coated CdTe nanocrystals (HS-CdTe NCs) have been fabricated for the first time via the electrospinning technique. The morphologies and photoluminescence (PL) emissions of HS-CdTe/PVP micro-/nanofibers prepared by doping the HS-CdTe NCs with the different PL peak wavelength (571, 616, and 643 nm) in PVP fibers were investigated by optical and PL microscope. The results revealed that all the HS-CdTe/PVP hybrid fibers showed an ultralong length for several hundreds of micrometers and a relatively uniform diameter of 1000 ∼ 1200 nm. The hybrid fibers displayed a wavelength-tunable PL emission, determining by the PL of doped HS-CdTe NCs. Moreover, similar to the original PL properties of HS-CdTe NCs before the electrospinning, the HS-CdTe/PVP fibers also showed a series of superior PL properties, such as narrow and symmetry PL spectrum, high, and uniform brightness. For comparison purpose, we also prepared three CdTe/PVP hybrid fibers by doping the 553 nm, 600 nm, and 633 nm PL-emitting CdTe NCs respectively in PVP electrospinning fibers. The characterization results showed that, the obtained three CdTe/PVP hybrid fibers had a basically satisfactory micro-/nanofiber morphology with a long length and relatively uniform diameter, but all the fibers exhibited very weak PL emissions. The enormous contrast in PL properties between HS-CdTe/PVP and CdTe/PVP fibers should mainly be ascribed to the different connection modes of ligands with the NCs and the passivation effect of inert hybrid silica shell on HS-CdTe. It is hopeful that the high luminescent HS-CdTe/PVP micro-/nanofibers with the tunable PL peak wavelength would be a good candidate in the optical sensor , light-emitting devices (LEDs), nanometer-scale waveguides , and the other related photonic materials.

There is increasing concern regarding soils contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).In the present study, the remediation of soil spiked with PAHs was explored by the combination of soil washing with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and subsequent oxidation through persulfate (PS) activated by Fe2+, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), and SiO2-coated nZVI (SiO2/nZVI). Results demonstrated that the removal of phenanthrene (PHE), fluoranthene (FLU), and pyrene (PYR) by SDS is an efficient means for soil decontamination. At SDS concentration of 20 g/L, the removal efficiencies of PHE, PYR, and FLU were 37%, 40%, and 44%, respectively. For the degradation of PAHs and SDS in the soil washing effluents, the efficiencies of PS activated with SiO2/nZVI were not significantly different from those of PS activated with nZVI and Fe2+(p> 0.05). In practice, SiO2/nZVI is more preferable due to the improved antioxidation and dispersibility. At the dosage of 2 g/L (in the amount of iron) of SiO2/nZVI, the removal efficiencies of PHE, FLU, PYR, and SDS within 30 min of treatment were 75%, 85%, 87%, and 34%, respectively. The degradation of SDS was much lower than those of PAHs, which facilitated the recycle of SDS. Our findings suggest that PS activated with SiO2/nZVI is a promising method for the treatment of soil washing effluents containing SDS and PAHs.Keywords:soil remediation;PAHs;SDS;SiO2/nZVI;activated persulfate

A molecularly imprinted sensor is smartly designed by using Cu 2 O as the core and SiO 2 as the imprinting layer, which can be used for the detection of doxycycline (Dox). As a peroxidase mimic, Cu 2 O can catalyze colorless o -phenylenediamine (oPD) to yellow 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP), however, the peroxidase-like activity of the Cu 2 O core is shielded after Dox is rebound to the molecularly imprinted SiO 2 (MI-SiO 2 ). As the absorbance of DAP at 416 nm ( A 416 ) is linearly related to the concentration of Dox, spectroscopic detection of Dox can be achieved. The linear range is 0.1–10 μM, and the limit of detection (LOD) is 0.046 μM. In addition, a multicolor sensing strategy is also proposed by using the smartphone-based color recognition software. The ratio of green (G) value to blue (B) value is linearly related to the concentration of Dox, and thus colorimetric detection of Dox is achieved by the RGB color analysis. The linear range is 0.1–10 μM, and the LOD is 0.074 μM. Finally, dual-mode detection of Dox in lake water and honey is achieved with the developed molecularly imprinted sensor.

The development of earth-abundant catalysts for efficient hydrolysis of ammonia borane is of great importance in the conversion and utilization of hydrogen energy. Here, we report the synthesis of SiO2-encompassed Co@N-doped porous carbon assemblies as a new type of recyclable catalyst for the purpose by calcination of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67@SiO2 microtubes at high temperatures under an N2 atmosphere. We find that the surface layer of SiO2 in the precursor microtubes is essential for the production of efficient catalysts by supplying an additional surface for Co nanoparticle dispersion in an effort to reduce their size. In addition, the SiO2 layer renders a highly ordered arrangement of Co@N-doped porous carbon within the catalysts, possibly allowing the ease of mass transfer of ammonia borane within the catalysts. The optimized catalysts obtained via calcination at 800 °C show a set of remarkable catalytic benefits, including a high hydrogen generation rate of 8.4 mol min–1 mol(Co)–1, a relatively low activation energy of 36.1 kJ mol–1, and a remarkable reusability (at least 10 times). Our results can provide new insight into the design and synthesis of highly ordered SiO2-supported catalysts for different reactions.

In this work, we innovatively synthesized homochiral fluorescence nano molecularly imprinted polymers (D-MIP) with dual affinity (metal ion affinity and homochiral affinity) for the specific separation and detection of L-penicillamine (L-PA), which is a core-shell structure with a SiO 2 -covered CDs core and an imprinted layer with L-PA cavities. A switch for fluorescence response was built by chelating grafted Cu 2+ , what's more, the imprinted L-PA was pre immobilized by Cu 2+ to form the directional imprinting with predetermined spatial structure. More importantly, the homochiral affinity of D-galactose in homochiral molecularly imprinted polymers (D-MIP) greatly enhanced the selective adsorption of L-PA, and D-MIP showed a high selectivity factor (α) of 3.45, which is 1.9 times that of the non-homochiral molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP). Meanwhile, D-MIP exhibited a high enantiomeric excess (ee) value of 56% for separation of racemic PA. Additionally, a high sensitive and selective method was established for the detection of L-PA.
