Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanocrystals have been widely studied for their excellent photoelectric properties. However, the irregular morphologies of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanocrystals have limited application in the field of lighting and display. From this, the regular morphologies of nanospheres, nanorods, nanoplatelets and MAPbBr3 (MA = CH3NH3+) nanocrystals have been synthesized by regulating the type and proportion of auxiliary ligands. The phase evolution, morphology and fluorescent properties were systematically studied by the various instruments of XRD, TEM, PL/UV-vis spectroscopy and fluorescence decay analysis. With the morphologies changing from nanospheres to nanoplatelets, the emission peaks of MAPbBr3 nanocrystals red-shifted, and the lifetimes have increased gradually. The underlying mechanisms were thoroughly investigated and elucidated. On this basis, the role of acid and amine in the synthesis of MAPbBr3 nanocrystals was systematically studied by regulating the ratio of oleic acid and N-octylamine. The fluorescence kinetics of MAPbBr3 nanocrystals were studied by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, and the charge carrier relaxation mechanism was clarified. Furthermore, the effect of temperature on the fluorescence properties of the nanocrystal was investigated in detail. Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanocrystals with morphologies-controlled and excellent fluorescence properties are expected to be widely used in lighting and display fields.

A simple and one-step microwave digestion method was utilized to synthesize the highly photoluminescent glucosamine derived nitrogen and zinc doped carbon dots (N, Zn-CDs) with a bluish-green luminescence property. The synthesized N, Zn-CDs inherited a good photoluminescence property with a quantum yield of 74% and which were characterized by XPS , XRD , TEM , FT-IR, UV–Vis, and fluorescence spectrometry . More importantly, N, Zn-CDs served as a fluorescence sensor for the detection of Fe 3+ ions, under optimal conditions, a good linear relationship was established in the concentration range of 0.25–125 μM. Also, the experimental results showed the detection limit of N, Zn-CDs against Fe 3+ was 0.15 μM, this could be a promising assay for sensing Fe 3+ ions. Also, the role of zinc doping was explored by conducting the detection under similar experimental conditions in the absence of zinc, and reports revealed that the reason for high photoluminescence was due to the zinc doping. Along with the sensing application, our group had investigated the bactericidal property of synthesized N, Zn-CDs against gram-negative ( Escherichia coli ), and gram-positive pathogens ( Staphylococcus aureus ). N, Zn-CDs displayed good bactericidal activity against both pathogens under light conditions, but Escherichia coli , even under the dark condition proved its activity. Besides, the morphology of both the strains was displayed before and after the treatment via a scanning electron microscopic images. Also, a plausible mechanism for bactericidal activity was also explained. The reported synthesis method could provide a novel approach for the design of high photoluminescent N, Zn–CDs with good sensing and bactericidal property towards Fe 3+ ions, gram-negative and positive bacterial strains .

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a refractory pollutant presents in water body that possesses serious threats to living organisms. To deal with it, we investigate and evaluate the effectiveness of GO@BiOI/Bi 2 WO 6 composite as a novel photocatalyst for BPA removal from aqueous solutions under UV–vis irradiation. To enhance its removal for BPA, the surface of BiOI/Bi 2 WO 6 is modified with graphene oxide (GO). This composite is named as ‘GO@BiOI/Bi 2 WO 6 ’. Changes in its physico-chemical properties after surface modification with GO are characterized by XRD, FTIR, FESEM-EDS, XPS, PL, and BET methods. Optimized conditions of BPA degradation by the composite are determined under identical conditions. Photodegradation pathways of BPA and its removal mechanisms by the same composite are presented. It is obvious that the GO@BiOI/Bi 2 WO 6 has demonstrated its potential as a promising photocatalyst for BPA removal under UV–vis irradiation. About 81% of BPA removal is attained by the GO@BiOI/Bi 2 WO 6 under optimized conditions (10 mg/L of BPA, 0.5 g/L of dose, pH 7 and 5 h of reaction time). The oxidation by-products of BPA degradation include p -hydroquinone or 4-(1-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-phenol. In spite of its performance, the treated effluents are still unable to meet the maximum discharge limit of <1 mg/L set by national legislation. Therefore, subsequent biological processes are essential to maximize its biodegradation in the wastewater samples before their discharge into waterbody.

With development of hyperspectral imaging technology, to detect and capture detailed spectral information of a hidden object become possible. So far cotton camouflage is mostly achieved through coating or dyeing with synthetic dyes. While natural dye has gained massive popularity in recent years, its application in camouflage dyeing seems to have received little attention. This paper reports cotton cellulose as natural substrate and its dyeing with biomimetic composite natural dye of sodium copper chlorophyllin (SCC) and red onion skin extracts, to mimic reflectance curve of natural green leaves in the ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) regions. Cotton was cationically modified to enhance natural dye affinity and to improve color fastness of dyed fabrics. Results showed that at SCC concentration of 20% owf and red onion skin extracts of 80% wt, spectral correlation coefficient of dyed cotton and natural green leaves reached 0.96 in 300–1300 nm range, and colorimetric values of dyed cotton closely matched that of the standard dark green with a color difference of 3.2. The dyed cotton exhibits superior colorfastness, excellent ultraviolet protection and antioxidant capacities. The process employed in this work is simple, effective and environmentally friendly. Outcomes of this study have opened up new possibilities for the development of natural green camouflage materials with multifunctions.

In this work, carboxymethylated curdlan (CMCD) was utilized as a capping and stabilizing agent for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Subsequently, quaternized curdlan (QCD) was introduced as the second capping layer through electrostatic attraction, leading to the preparation of double-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@CQ). The successful synthesis of silver nanoparticles was characterized using UV–vis, FTIR, XRD, TEM, and DLS. AgNPs@CQ were incorporated into gelatin and a AgNPs@CQ/Gel composite hydrogel was obtained. The incorporation of AgNPs@CQ imparts excellent antibacterial properties to the composite hydrogel, thereby enhancing its antimicrobial efficacy. The presence of double-capping layers significantly retards the release rate of silver, contributing to prolonged antimicrobial activity. The MTT and live/dead fluorescence staining results demonstrate that the gelatin hydrogel incorporating double-capped AgNPs exhibits enhanced cell viability compared to the one incorporating single-capped AgNPs. Additionally, the composite hydrogel exhibits remarkable mechanical strength and adhesive performance. The AgNPs@CQ/Gel composite hydrogel demonstrates a cost-effective and facile preparation, showing significant potential in the field of dressings.

For liquid and liquid mixtures, density (ρ), viscosity (η) and surface tension (γ) are seen as important basic data. This research reported the data of ρ, η and γ for the binary mixture of tri-ethylene glycol (TEG) + 1,3-propanediamine (PDA) at p = .1 MPa and T = (293.15 to 318.15) K within the whole molar fraction range, finding the maximum of η and γ values when the mole fraction of TEG was x 1 ≈ 0.65. After that, excess molar volume ( V m E ), viscosity deviation (Δη), and surface tension deviation (Δγ) were carefully calculated, and the minimum V m E values and the maximum Δγ values were obtained when the molar fraction of TEG was at x 1 ≈ 0.50; however, the maximum Δη values shifted from x 1 ≈ 0.60 to x 1 ≈ 0.66. And then, the Redlich-Kister (R-K) equation fitting was performed on above parameters to evaluate the coefficient and standard deviation, apparent molar volumes ( V φ , 1 and V φ , 2 ) and partial molar volumes ( V 1 ¯ and V 2 ¯ ). Meanwhile, Gaussian 09 software was used to further analyze the intermolecular force and to calculate the dissociation energy and bond length of the mixture, and the interaction of PDA with TEG were discussed on the basis of FTIR, UV–Vis and FLS spectral technologies. The results showed that there were hydrogen-bond interactions between the nitrogen atoms in PDA and the hydroxyl hydrogen atoms in TEG.

The utilizing light with broadband range has attracted lots of research interest for the photo induced reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP). However, it is still a challenge for a single catalyst to simultaneously respond to various lights with highly varied wavelengths. Here, we proposed a simple strategy for the preparation of a heterogeneous photocatalyst suitable for photo induced atom transfer radical polymerization (photoATRP) under full spectrum (from UV/vis light to NIR), by combining pyridine nitrogen doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). In the presence of these robust UCNP@SiO2@N-CDs composite particles, the photoATRP could be carried on under the different irradiations of UV, blue, green, red, white, and 980 nm NIR light, with a low loading of part per million concentrations of the CuBr2/L catalyst. Moreover, the excellent solvent and aqueous compatibility allow UCNP@SiO2@N-CDs to be capable for photoATRP in both organic solvents and aqueous media, providing well-defined hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers with low dispersity and excellent chain-end fidelity. In addition, the photoATRP with 980 nm NIR exhibited excellent penetrations through visible-light-proof barriers. The system could be used for the preparation of an injectable hydrogel that had dual curing and photoluminescence modes. Owing to the “living” characteristics of polymer chains achieved through ATRP, the hydrogel was capable to be easily repaired by using monomer as the binder.

In our work, hydrophobic thymol-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with strong reducibility, a lower density than water, and a slightly higher melting point than room temperature were synthesized. Based on these solid DESs, one-step derivatization and temperature-controlled vortex-assisted liquid-liquid microextraction based on the solidification of a floating DES (TC-VA-LLME-SFDES) via UV–Vis spectrophotometry for the rapid determination of total iron was developed. The derivatization and TC-VA-LLME were carried out simultaneously by the addition of DES as both the reducing agent and extraction solvent. After optimization, the calibration curve (5–250 μg L −1 , R 2 = 0.9982), limit of detection (1.5 μg L −1 ), limit of quantitation (5.0 μg L −1 ), precision (≤4.0%) and enrichment factor (92) was obtained. This method was applied for the determination of total iron in water and food samples with satisfactory recoveries (85.4–106.2%). One-step derivatization and TC-VA-LLME only required 2 min. Furthermore, this method opened up the application of solid DESs in liquid–liquid microextraction.

Heavy metal pollution has always been a great threat to human health and safety. Compared with other heavy metals, although zirconium ion (Zr(IV)) is equally harmful, due to the lack of research on Zr(IV) in the biological systems and environment, its detection does not seem to have received the attention it deserves. Herein, a rapid visual dual-mode detection (colorimetric and chrominance method) of Zr(IV) based on l -histidine functionalized gold nanoparticles (HIS-AuNPs) has been reported. AuNPs and HIS-AuNPs before and after adding Zr(IV) were characterized by UV–Vis, TEM, DLS, Zeta potential, EDS and FT-IR, etc. These results showed that l -histidine was successfully modified on the surface of AuNPs by forming a stable Au–N bond, and its modification had little effect on the dispersion degree of AuNPs. After the addition of Zr(IV), interaction of this metal ion with the imidazolyl group on l -histidine can obviously cause the aggregation of HIS-AuNPs within 12 min, and the dispersion state and particle size of HIS-AuNPs can be significantly changed. These two detection modes were established by means of absorbance and color change of solution, and being used in addition and recovery experiments of Zr(IV) in natural water. Under the optimal conditions, these two modes exhibited good linearity within 15–70 and 20–100 μmol L −1 , and limit of detection of 2.62 and 6.25 μmol L −1 . The proposed method was highly sensitive and selective, which provided a new convenient way to realize the detection of Zr(IV). Graphical abstract

In this study, the In 2 O 3 -carbonization wood (In 2 O 3 -CW) composites were prepared using waste poplar wood through a comprehensive process involving “delignification-bleaching-impregnation-carbonization”. The morphology, crystal structure, elemental chemical state and photocatalytic activity of In 2 O 3 -CW were investigated by SEM, HRTEM , BET, XRD , XPS , UV–vis DRS, PL , EIS , ESR , TOC and LC-MS. Malachite green (MG) served as a model organic pollutant to assess the adsorption and visible-light photocatalytic performance of In 2 O 3 -CW in dye degradation. The results indicated a significant enhancement in the adsorption-photocatalytic performance of In 2 O 3 nanoparticles loaded with biomass, leading to a significant increase in the MG degradation rate from 24 % to 76 %. Specifically, when the concentration of MG was 100 mg·L −1 , 20 mg of 0.5In 2 O 3 -CW removed more than 96 % of MG to 481 mg·g −1 . The negatively charged surface of In 2 O 3 -CW was observed to be effective in adsorbing MG molecules. Moreover, In 2 O 3 -CW exhibited a narrow band gap, high photocatalytic activity, and excellent light harvesting ability, facilitating enhanced photogenerated electron-hole separation and the generation of potent active substances ( OH and O 2 − ). Given this knowledge, a detailed deduction of the dye discoloration mechanism was presented, offering a novel approach for the effective treatment of dye wastewater pollution and the realization of high-value applications for waste biomass resources from agriculture and forestry.

Using an endogenous carrier is the best method to address the biocompatibility of carriers in the drug delivery field. Herein, we prepared a glutathione-responsive paclitaxel prodrug micelle based on an endogenous molecule of L-glutathione oxidized (GSSG) for cancer therapy using one-pot synthesis. The carboxyl groups in L-glutathione oxidized were reacted with the hydroxyl group in paclitaxel (PTX) using the catalysts dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Then, the amino-polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (mPEG-NH2) was conjugated with GSSG to prepare PTX-GSSG-PEG. The structure of PTX-GSSG-PEG was characterized using infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS). The drug release kinetics of PTX within PTX-GSSG-PEG were quantified using ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The size of the PTX-GSSG-PEG micelles was 83 nm, as evaluated using dynamic light scattering (DLS), and their particle size remained stable in a pH 7.4 PBS for 7 days. Moreover, the micelles could responsively degrade and release PTX in a reduced glutathione environment. The drug loading of PTX in PTX-GSSG-PEG was 13%, as determined using NMR. Furthermore, the cumulative drug release rate of PTX from the micelles reached 72.1% in a reduced glutathione environment of 5 mg/mL at 120 h. Cell viability experiments demonstrated that the PTX-GSSG-PEG micelles could induce the apoptosis of MCF-7 cells. Additionally, cell uptake showed that the micelles could distribute to the cell nuclei within 7 h. To sum up, with this glutathione-responsive paclitaxel prodrug micelle based on the endogenous molecule GSSG, it may be possible to develop novel nanomedicines in the future.
