The dyes in printing and dyeing wastewater are harmful to the human body and the environment. It is essential to develop practical and effective adsorbents to deal with them. In this study, an Fe-doped, ZIF-67 derived Fe/Co/C composite material with strong magnetism was successfully synthesized. The effects of pH, initial concentration, and adsorption time on the properties of the adsorbent were investigated. To further improve the removal efficiency and enhance the practicality, potassium peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was added to the system due to its Fenton-like effect. Then, an Fe/Co/C composite was used with PMS to remove Congo red (CR) with a 98% removal of 250 mg·L−1. Moreover, for its high saturation magnetization of 85.4 emu·g−1, the Fe/Co/C composite can be easily recovered by applying a magnetic field, solving the problem that powdery functional materials are difficult to recover and, thus, avoiding secondary pollution. Furthermore, since the composite material was doped before carbonization, this synthetic strategy is flexible and the required metal elements can be added at will to achieve different purposes. This study demonstrates that this Fe-doped, ZIF-67 derived magnetic material has potential application prospects for dye adsorption.

This study addresses the challenge of designing simple and environmentally friendly methods for the preparation of effective electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbing materials with tailored microstructures and multi-component regulation. N, O doped walnut-like porous carbon composite microspheres loaded with FeCo nanoparticles (WPCM/Fe–Co) are synthesized through high-temperature carbonization combined with soap-free emulsion polymerization and hydrothermal methods, avoiding the use of toxic solvents and complex conditions. The incorporation of magnetic components enhances magnetic loss, complementing dielectric loss to optimize EMW attenuation. The unique walnut-like morphology further improves impedance matching. The proportions of Fe and Co components can be adjusted to regulate the material's reflection loss, thickness, and bandwidth, allowing for fine-tuning of absorption performance. At a low filling ratio (16.7%), the optimal WPCM/Fe–Co composites exhibit a minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) of −48.34 dB (10.33 GHz, 3.0 mm) and an overall effective absorbing bandwidth (EAB) covering the entire C bands, X bands, and Ku bands. This work introduces a novel approach to composition regulation and presents a green synthesis method for magnetic carbon composite absorbers with high-performance EMW absorption at low loading.

Conjugated metal polyphthalocyanine (MPPc) organic skeletons, a kind of novel porous materials containing inherent M−N 4 highly active sites, are of great significance for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, bimetallic Fe-Co phthalocyanine covalent polymers (denoted as FeCoPPc) were prepared as ORR electrocatalysts through a solvothermal process and subsequent oxidation treatment. Meanwhile, the effect of axial oxygen-containing ligands of metal centers on the catalytic kinetic processes was also investigated. Benefiting from the highly exposed bimetal active sites and the finely designed ligand structure, FeCoPPc with optimized Fe/Co ratio and ClO 3 − coordination (Fe 0.9 Co 0.1 PPc-ClO 3 ) displayed an outstanding ORR electrocatalytic activity and superior durability compared to 20 % Pt/C, manifested by an onset potential of 0.986 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and a half-wave potential of 0.923 V vs. RHE in a 0.1 M KOH solution. This work may guide the rational design of high-performance electrocatalysts to regulate the catalytic activity.

Hypoxanthine (Hx) and pH are important indicators for evaluating the freshness of aquatic products, and their rapid assessment can maximize public food safety and minimize economic losses. A nanozymes-loaded smart responsive hydrogel compound provides a new strategy for rapidly assessing the freshness of aquatic products. Accordingly, this paper reports the preparation of a hydrogel compound with pH responsiveness and peroxidase (POD) activity using a one-step method. In this method, sodium alginate, chitosan, and gelatin are used as the raw materials and Fe,Co,P-CDs (CDs) with POD activity as well as 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine and H 2 O 2 are simultaneously introduced as substrates. The hydrogel compound transforms from a solid to a sol based on its pH response (pH = 6.5–8.0), and its color changes from blue to colorless because of its Hx response to the inhibition of the POD activity of CDs. The color difference shows a good linear relationship with the Hx concentration in the range of 1.5–1500 μM, with a detection limit of 1.48 μM and an excellent recovery rate of practical samples. Based on the pH enhancement and Hx accumulation during the spoilage of shrimps, naked-eye and smartphone-assisted, real-time monitoring of the freshness of shrimp has been realized through the morphology and color changes of the hydrogel compound. This dual-response hydrogel compound provides a new strategy for monitoring the freshness of aquatic products with great potential in food safety monitoring.

Iron-based catalysts are environmentally friendly, and iron minerals are abundant in the earth's crust, with great potential advantages for PMS-based advanced oxidation process applications. However, homogeneous Fe 2+ /PMS systems suffer from side reactions and are challenging to reuse. Therefore, developing catalysts with improved stability and activity is a long-term goal for practical Fe-based catalyst applications. In this study, we prepared Fe-HNTs nanoreactors by encapsulating a nitrogen-doped carbon layer with one-dimensional halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) using the molten salt-assisted method. Subsequently, Fe (Co, Ni) nanoclusters were anchored onto the nitrogen-doped carbon layer at a relatively low temperature (550℃), resulting in stable and uniform distribution of metal nanoclusters on the surface of HNTs carriers in the form of Fe-N x coordination. The results showed that the dissolution of the molten salt and leaching of post-treated metal oxides generated numerous mesopores within the Fe-HNTs nanoreactor, leading to a specific surface area more than 10 times that of HNTs. This enhanced mass transfer capability facilitates rapid pollutant removal while exposing more active sites. Remarkably, Fe-HNTs adsorbed up to 97% of tetracycline within 60 min. In the Fe-HNTs/PMS system, the predominant reactive oxygen species has been shown to be 1 O 2 , and the added tetracycline was degraded by more than 98% within 5 min. The removal of tetracycline was maintained above 96% in the presence of interfering factors such as wide pH (3–11) and inorganic anions (5 mM Cl − , HCO 3 − , NO 3 − , and SO 4 2− ). The investigated mechanism suggests that efficient degradation and interference resistance of the Fe-HNTs/PMS system is attributed to the synergistic effect between the rapid adsorption of porous structure and the non-radical ( 1 O 2 )-dominated degradation pathway.

The kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) of Co3O4 in alkaline media can be promoted by a bimetallic co-doping strategy. Herein, we synthesize a Zn/Fe co-doped Co3O4 nanostructure (ZnFe-Co3O4) to enhance the oxygen evolution reaction performance in the alkaline media. The ZnFe-Co3O4 electrocatalyst exhibits a low overpotentials of 255 mV at 10 mA cm-2, a Tafel slope of 54 mV dec-1 in 1.0 M KOH and excellent long-term durability up to 120 hours at 100 mA cm−2. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveals that Zn occupies octahedral Co3+ sites and Fe occupies tetrahedral Co2+ sites in the Co3O4 lattice. The experimental results together with theory calculations collectively demonstrate that ZnFe-Co3O4 follows the lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM) during OER process. In situ Raman spectroscopy shows that the truly reactive FeOOH/CoOOH species are formed through surface reconstruction during OER. Furthermore, it is found that the synergistic effects of Zn and Fe doping, which stabilize the Co3O4 structure and promote the generation of active (oxy)hydroxide species, are identified as key factors in the enhanced electrocatalytic performance. This work offers a novel concept for enhancing the electrocatalytic activity of electrocatalysts through doping strategies and provides guidance for the rational design of ideal electrocatalyst.

Facing the complex application environment and overall inefficiency in the complete water-splitting process, the development of highly efficient and stable catalytic materials is urgently required. This study innovatively proposes and for the first time implements a rapid synthesis technique driven by microwave-induced sulfur sublimation, successfully preparing MS 2 /RuS 2 (M = Co, Fe, Ni) heterostructure interfaces with high structural stability and uniform active site distribution within merely 60 s. By incorporating iron-group sulfides, the electronic structure of pyrite-type RuS 2 is effectively modulated, enabling the developed MS 2 /RuS 2 @G catalyst to exhibit superior activity in alkaline environments. Particularly, the cobalt-based sulfide regulated pyrite-type RuS 2 (CoS 2 /RuS 2 @G) achieves a mass activity in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that is 15.4 times that of 20 wt.% Pt/C, and in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), it surpasses commercial IrO 2 by two orders of magnitude. This research not only provides a new pathway for enhancing the performance and environmental adaptability of water-splitting catalysts but also presents a simple and universal method to boost catalytic activity through a synergistic modulation strategy.

To design and construct high-performance asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC), we use the same Fe-based metal-organic framework (MIL-88A) as the precursor for the first time to prepare iron-cobalt-nickel ternary metal hydroxides (Fe-Co-Ni-OH) and Fe 2 O 3 compounded with reduced graphene oxide (Fe 2 O 3 /RGO-1). As a positive electrode, Fe-Co-Ni-OH has a specific capacitance of 1065 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and exhibits excellent rate performance and cycle stability due to its unique spindle-like structure of the surface growth nanosheets and the synergistic effect between the three metals. The introduction of RGO effectively connects the independent spindle-like Fe 2 O 3 and enhances the conductivity and structural stability of the material. So that the Fe 2 O 3 /RGO-1 negative electrode has a specific capacitance of 734 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 , and its cycle stability is significantly improved compared with the single Fe 2 O 3 (increasing from 64 % to 85 %). The constructed Fe-Co-Ni-OH//Fe 2 O 3 /RGO-1 ASC possesses a satisfactory energy density of 43.11 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 800 W kg −1 , which is superior to parts constructed with similar material compositions in the same period. This research provides a new perspective for developing high-performance, low-cost, and environmentally friendly green energy storage devices.

Capturing and utilization of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) not only leads to effective use of carbon resources, but also alleviates environmental pollution caused by increasing concentration of CO 2 , thus making it a hot research topic in recent years. In this study, a series of highly dispersed iron-cobalt (Fe-Co) catalysts was prepared by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA-2Na) modification, which could efficiently convert CO 2 into high value-added chemicals (C 2 -C 4 = and C 5 -C 11 ). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the addition of a small amount of Co and EDTA-2Na contributed to enhance the sintering resistance of Fe species. During the calcination process, EDTA 4− can be decomposed into small organic molecules with reducibility, thus promoting the reduction of iron species. The CO temperature-programmed desorption (CO-TPD) results showed that cobalt enhanced the adsorption and activation of intermediate CO on Na x Fe-Co catalyst, thereby promoting the catalytic conversion of CO 2 . The complexation of EDTA promotes the synergistic effect of Fe-Co bimetals, enhances the chemical adsorption of CO 2 . Sodium in EDTA-2Na promotes the surface basicity of the catalysts, which is favored for improving the product distribution of hydrocarbons. At lower H 2 /CO 2 (1/1) ratio, the EDTA-2Na modified Fe-Co/Al 2 O 3 catalyst exhibited high conversion of CO 2 (32.8 %) and excellent selectivity toward high value-added chemicals. The selectivity of by-product CO was only 8.1 %; and C 2 -C 4 = (32.5 %) and C 5 -C 11 (46.3 %) accounted for ∼79 % selectivity among the hydrocarbons generated.

The electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are key electrochemical processes in metal–air batteries and water splitting devices. Aluminium–air batteries, as an important type of metal–air battery, have been considered to be promising power candidates for flexible electronics. Here, we describe electronically engineered amorphous Fe–Co–S sites embedded in Prussian blue analogue (FeCoSx-PBA) hetero-nanoframes. The experimental results and DFT calculations reveal the critical role of the introduced FeCoSx layer to PBA, which enhances the electron transfer and alleviates the overbinding effect of OH* during the OER. The FeCoSx-PBA hybrid system supplies an optimized electronic structure for the alkaline OER, which is also confirmed by the much-lowered overpotential (266 mV at 10 mA cm−2) for the alkaline OER. Furthermore, a flexible Al–air battery based on an FeCoSx-PBA cathode catalyst exhibits a high peak power density (58.3 mW cm−2) and energy density (1483 W h kgAl−1), and outstanding stability for more than 50 h of operation under bending or stretching conditions, demonstrating its potential in the practical application of flexible electronic devices. Our results may provide a new strategy of modulating the electronic structure of air electrode catalysts to efficiently promote the reactivity of alkaline OER and Al–air battery processes.

Na-metal halide batteries are regarded as one of the most promising candidates for large-scale energy storage systems owing to their high energy density and high safety. However, the problems of low kinetics and poor stability caused by the low-conductive chlorides have restricted the development of Na-metal halide batteries. Here, we design a facile approach that combines electrospinning and electrodeposition to prepare electrodes with a nanostructured composite containing carbon nanofibers and Ni-Fe alloy (CNF@Ni-Fe alloy). It is confirmed that the Ni-Fe alloy can stably be oxidized and reformed when discharges from 2.36 V to 2.32 V. Benefiting from the unique nanoscale arrangement of Ni-Fe, the heterogeneous distribution of FeCl 2 and NiCl 2 effectively overcomes the block of low-conductive chlorides. Furthermore, the coreaction of Ni 2+ and Fe 2+ directly decreases the polarization potential, resulting in the improvement of reaction kinetics. Notably, batteries with the CNF@Ni-Fe alloy display a high specific capacity of 199.7 mAh g −1 and a capacity retention rate of 99% after 50 cycles at 0.6 C. The CNF@Ni-Fe alloy cathodes also deliver long-term stability with 104.5 mAh g −1 capacity retention after 600 cycles at 2 C and a good rate capability of 5 C.

Photocatalytic nanocomposites of titanium dioxide (TiO2) were prepared by hydrothermal method. Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) was applied to prepare various TiO2 composites of doped nanoparticles by using NH4Cl and FeCl3 as sources. The structure
and morphology of these composites showed that TiO2 was loaded on surface of RGO. Meanwhile, the agglomeration of TiO2 decreased and the dispersion became uniform for doped materials. Under ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation, the photocatalytic degradation of volatile
organic compounds (VOC) by RGO/TiO2 composites with codoping of N and Fe reached to 90.5%. The photocatalytic degradation was higher than RGO/TiO2 composites and pure TiO2 by 1.8 and 5.9 times, respectively. The role of co-doping composites may have a possible
mechanism for toluene under UV light irradiation. The enhanced photocatalytic properties were attributed to N and Fe doping which generated intermediate energy level, extended absorption and decreased band gap of UV light.
