To enhance the conductivity of sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK, SP) membrane and avoid the loss of ionic liquid (IL), using aminopropyloligosisiloxane (NH 2 -POSS) as molecular hybrid filler, a self-assembled medium temperature and non-humidified SP/IL/NH 2 -POSS hybrid membrane was prepared. NH 2 -POSS can be assembled into the hydrophilic domain ion phase of SPEEK. In which, –NH 2 of NH 2 -POSS and –SO 3 H of SPEEK formed acid-base pairs at the interface which were conducive to the construction of proton transport channel. In addition, NH 2 -POSS enriched IL in the hydrophilic domain, which retained IL while synergistically increased the conductivity. The results showed that the IL loss rate of SP/IL/NH 2 -POSS-2 membrane was 46.9 wt%, which was about 55.8% of SP/IL membrane; the conductivity of SP/IL/NH 2 -POSS-2 membrane at 200 °C without humidification was 5.51 mS·cm −1 , which was about 4 times that of SP/IL membrane.

The pollutants present in wastewater can cause structural damage to evaporators, thereby reducing their evaporation efficiency and hindering the application of solar-driven water evaporation technologies. Here, the TiO 2 -based evaporator (CPM-Air) with highly efficient photodegradation and solar-powered water evaporation performance for simultaneous freshwater production and decontamination was prepared by pyrolysis NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) grown on the surface of Carbon Felt (CF). The evaporation rate of CPM-Air evaporator reached 2.21 kg m -2 h −1 under 1.0 kW/m 2 , and high solar-vapor conversion efficiency of 102.20 %. Meanwhile, the Anatase TiO 2 obtained by carbonized NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) has more active sites for removal pollutants. CF as the catalytic promoter to accelerate electron transport, and improve the photogenerated electron-hole separation efficiency. The photothermal-photocatalytic synergy removal efficiency of high concentration (50 mg/L) CIP was 2 times higher than photocatalytic only. In addition, the CPM-Air evaporator has high water evaporation rate in different harsh environments, the 99.9 % of metal ions removal and excellent salt resistance. More importantly, the growth experiments on soybean indicated that the products of photothermal-photocatalytic synergy degradation CIP of CPM-Air evaporator was non-biotoxic. This study provides valuable insights into the potential of photothermal-photocatalytic synergy for sustainable water production.

In this study, a zirconium elemental organic framework (UiO-66-NH 2 ) was prepared by a green synthesis method and showed a good adsorption performance for removing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from water. UiO-66-NH 2 was analyzed by a variety of characterization methods and the adsorption properties of 2,4-D on UiO-66-NH 2 were investigated by static adsorption experiments. The results showed that the adsorption of 2,4-D had a wide pH range (2–10) and good salt tolerance with the adsorption equilibrium time about 2 h. The maximum adsorption capacity from Langmuir was up to 652 mg g −1 at 303 K. The isotherms can be described by Langmuir model and the adsorption kinetics was consistent with pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Elovich model. The regeneration efficiency was still 95% after 5 cycles with 0.01 mol L −1 NaOH as desorption solution. The feasibility of practical application of UiO-66-NH 2 was explored by simulating actual wastewater at different pH. UiO-66-NH 2 is promising to remove 2,4-D from water. Graphical abstract

The development of effective and practical adsorbents for eliminating pollutants still remains a significant challenge. Herein, we synthesized a novel magnetically separable composite, Co 0.6 Fe 2.4 O 4 /MIL-101-NH 2 , through the in-situ growth of MIL-101-NH 2 on magnetic nanoparticles, designed specifically for the removal of Congo red (CR) from aqueous solutions. MIL-101-NH 2 possessed high BET surface area (240.485 m 2 •g −1 ) and facile magnetic separation function and can be swiftly separated (within 30 s) through an external magnetic field post-adsorption. The investigation systematically explored the influence of crucial parameters, including adsorbent dosage, pH, adsorption duration, temperature, and the presence of interfering ions, on CR adsorption performance. Findings indicate that CR adsorption adheres to the pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. Thermodynamic analysis reveals the spontaneity, endothermic nature, and orderly progression of the adsorption process. Remarkably, the adsorbent with 0.1 g•L −1 boasts an impressive maximum adsorption capacity of 1756.19 mg•g −1 for CR at 298.15 K, establishing its competitive advantage. The reuse of the adsorbent over 5 cycles remains 78% of the initial adsorption. The CR adsorption mechanisms were elucidated, emphasizing the roles of π-π interactions, electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, and metal coordination. Comparison with other dyes, such as methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO), and exploration of adsorption performance in binary dye systems, demonstrates the superior capacity and selectivity of this adsorbent for CR. In conclusion, our magnetically separable metal–organic framework (MOF)based composite presents a versatile and effective solution for CR removal, with promising applications in water treatment and environmental remediation.

The NH 2 -MIL-125 (NM-125) or modified NM-125 materials are used for photocatalytic removal of nitric oxide (NO). Most researchers attributed few NO 2 emission during NO photocatalysis to high selectivity towards the formation of nitrate ions due to the neglect of the principle of electroneutrality and pore structure of NM-125. This may cause misleading photocatalytic mechanism of NO removal. Herein, this work proposes a new mechanism behind NO removal using NM-125 based on experimental investigations and theoretical calculations. First, experimentally, the highest NO removal efficiency of 88.54 % with negligible NO 2 emission occurs at the anhydrous condition. In addition, in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) measurements verify the presence and accumulation of NO 2 as product during photocatalytic conversion of NO. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) computations demonstrate that there exist strong interactions between NO 2 and -NH 2 group within pores. Few NO 2 is detected during experiments is probably due to its subsequent adsorption in the pores of NM-125. The new NO removal mechanism including photocatalytic conversion NO into NO 2 and subsequent NO 2 adsorption in the pores of NM-125 is thus proposed. This work provides a deeper insight into photocatalytic NO removal over NM-125 and its variants.

Graphene oxide (GO)-based nanofiltration membranes, featuring well-ordered microscopic structure, well-defined 2D nanochannels and superior molecular sieving ability, have attracted sustained research interest in molecular and ionic separation. However, most of current GO laminar membrane have a poor water flux and high rejection of both dyes and salts, which is not suitable for the dye/salt mixture separation. Herein, we report a vacuum filtration strategy to fabricate GO/NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 nanofiltration membranes with high water flux and excellent separation performance for dye/salts mixture by introducing NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 . The NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 is not only worked as the rigid spherical nanospacer to tune GO interlayer spacing but also as crosslinkers to improve the stability of GO membrane in water. FTIR, XRD , SEM , zeta potential and contact angle were applied to analyze the chemical composition and morphology of as-prepared membranes. The effect of intercalated NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles on overall performance of the GO/NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 membranes was systematically investigated. The resulted membrane with 8 wt% of NH 2 -Fe 3 O 4 loading has high water flux of up to 78 Lm − 2 h − 1 , which is 4.8 times higher than that of pure GO membrane. Moreover, such membrane also displays high congo red rejection (94%) and low NaCl rejection (~15%), rendering the membranes promising for dye/salt mixtures separation.

Tetracycline’s accumulation in the environment poses threats to human health and the ecological balance, necessitating efficient and rapid removal methods. Novel porous metal–organic framework (MOF) materials have garnered significant attention in academia due to their distinctive characteristics. This paper focuses on studying the adsorption and removal performance of amino-modified MIL-101(Fe) materials towards tetracycline, along with their adsorption mechanisms. The main research objectives and conclusions are as follows: (1) NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF materials were successfully synthesized via the solvothermal method, confirmed through various characterization techniques including XRD, FT-IR, SEM, EDS, XPS, BET, and TGA. (2) NH2-MIL-101(Fe) exhibited a 40% enhancement in tetracycline adsorption performance compared to MIL-101(Fe), primarily through chemical adsorption following pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption process conformed well to Freundlich isotherm models, indicating multilayer and heterogeneous adsorption characteristics. Thermodynamic analysis revealed the adsorption process as a spontaneous endothermic reaction. (3) An increased adsorbent dosage and temperature correspondingly improved NH2-MIL-101(Fe)’s adsorption efficiency, with optimal performance observed under neutral pH conditions. These findings provide new strategies for the effective removal of tetracycline from the environment, thus holding significant implications for environmental protection.

High-quality polyamide (PA) nanofiltration (NF) membrane with excellent selectivity and permeability is of great research significant because of their high practical application value, especially for the precise separation of divalent and monovalent ions, such as Mg 2+ and Li + . Herein, UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles (NPs) decorated ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) nanofiber substrate (M-NFM) was utilized to construct high-quality Janus NF membrane through interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction using polyethyleneimine (PEI) and piperazine (PIP) as aqueous phase monomers and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) as organic phase monomers. The incorporation of UiO-66-NH 2 NPs significantly influenced the hydrophilicity, surface morphology, and pore structure of the substrate, thereby enhancing the properties of the resulting NF. Optimally prepared membranes demonstrated improved separation performance, permeability, stability, and antifouling characteristics compared to the unmodified substrate. Notably, at a Mg 2+ /Li + ratio of 30, the resultant NF membrane achieved a separation factor (S Mg 2+ /Li + ) of 28.4 and a salt permeation flux of 156.8 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·MPa -1 . Additionally, the membrane exhibited over 98% rejection rates for FeCl 3 , CuSO 4 , CaCl 2 , MgSO 4 , MgCl 2 and Na 2 SO 4 with fluxes exceeding 150 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·MPa -1 , highlighting its effectiveness in rejecting multivalent ions. This research presents a simpler and more reliable approach to the fabrication of high-quality Janus PA NF membrane, offering promising potential for industrial-scale applications.

The use of graphene-based materials as anticorrosion coatings to protect metals is always a topic of discussion. In this work, silicon nitride (Si3N4) was aminated to improve its water dispersibility. Then it is attached to the graphene oxide (GO) surface to improve compatibility with epoxy (EP) resin as well as conductivity. The results of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and zeta potentials test analyses indicated that Si3N4–NH2@GO with a layer-point structure has been successfully prepared. The corrosion resistance of the composite coatings was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and polarization curve analysis, and the wear resistance of the composite coatings was tested by friction and wear tests. The results showed that 1.0% Si3N4–NH2@GO has excellent corrosion and wear resistance. The use of Si3N4–NH2@GO layer point structures in this study broadens the way for GO applications.

The excellent catalytic activity of a novel nanomaterial was introduced to ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor applications for detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Amino-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT-NH2) supported PdPt nanocages were used as catalytic labels of secondary anti-CEA. PdPt nanocages with hollow interiors and porous walls could efficiently enhance electrocatalysis for reduction of H2O2. Meanwhile, with good dispersion, large specific surface area and amino groups, MWCNT-NH2 can immobilize a large amount of PdPt nanocages to improve the sensitivity and amplify the signal of the immunosensor. For the immobilization of primary antibodies, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane functionalized graphene sheets were used as transducing materials to modify glassy carbon electrodes and to enhance the electron transfer efficiently. Under the optimal conditions, the electrochemical immunosensor exhibited a wide linear range of 0.001–20 ng mL−1 with a low detection limit of 0.2 pg mL−1 for CEA. The proposed sensing strategy enriches electrochemical immunoassays and may have a promising application in bioassay analysis.

Engineering photocatalyst crystal facets and constructing heterojunctions are effective strategies to improve photocatalytic activity. The amino-modified titanium-based metal–organic framework (MOF) NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) (NM) has drawn extensive attention as a photocatalyst by virtue of its high specific surface area, abundant pore structure, and narrow bandgap. However, its catalytic activity is hindered by fast electron-hole recombination and limited light absorption. This study synthesizes NM with engineered crystal facets and Co 3 O 4 @NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) (C-NM) composites with varying Co 3 O 4 loadings using a facile hydrothermal method. The impact of heterojunctions and facet design on photocatalytic CO 2 reduction under visible light is also studied. Results show that the C-NM, with exposed {111} facets and optimal Co 3 O 4 loading, demonstrates superior photocatalytic CO and CH 4 production rates of 21.64 μmol h −1 g −1 and 3.99 μmol h −1 g −1 , 2.1 and 1.6 times higher than those of NM {001} , respectively. Experimental characterization and density functional theory (DFT) analyses attribute the improved photocatalytic activity to several mechanisms. First, crystal facet modulation can optimize the active sites and specific surface area of the photocatalysts. Second, by loading the narrow-bandgap Co 3 O 4 nanoparticles, bandgap of the C-NM photocatalyst is further reduced, thereby enhancing the absorption and utilization of visible light. Finally, the NM/Co 3 O 4 heterostructure minimizes electron-hole recombination, significantly boosting CO 2 reduction efficiency.
