Two-dimensional (2D) metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have promising applications in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing for their intriguing exciton migration and visible light-near infrared absorption properties. In this study, an effective biosensing structure comprising 2D Cu-TCPP MOF nanosheet-capsulated Au film was developed, such that lower molecular-weight dopamine with small changes of refractive index can be identified on the fiber-optic platform. The large areas of ultrathin 2D Cu-TCPP MOF nanosheets were well prepared, the experimental results indicated that the sensitivity (48%) and figure of merit (18%) were increased notably compared with the bare Au film. Moreover, the finite element method was adopted to numerically analyze and verify the excellent charge-transfer ability of MOF nanosheets and the bidirectional gain properties between MOF nanosheets and Au films. Furthermore, the sensitivity [1.24 nm/log(M)] and selectivity of the dopamine were significantly enhanced with a low limit of detection of 1.50 × 10–13 M and linear response with a wide range of concentrations from 5 × 10–12 M to 5 × 10–7 M through ssDNA surface modification and conformation amplification. As revealed by the above-mentioned results, the Cu-TCPP/Au/SMF biosensor can serve as a promising nanoplatform for clinical diagnosis and medical assessment.

The development of a simple and convenient method for synthesizing photocatalysts for the degradation of tetracycline remains a great challenge. In this work, a Cu-MoO 2 @C composite was successfully synthesized by a high-temperature carbonization of ammonium molybdate infiltrated copper alginate aerogel , which was obtained by curing a mixture of sodium alginate and ammonium molybdate using Cu 2+ ions. The photocatalytic properties of the prepared composites were evaluated by the degradation of tetracycline. The results showed that the introduction of Cu nanoparticles on the MoO 2 @C hybrid could significantly improve the catalytic performance, and the degradation rate of tetracycline reached 92.48 % after 60 min light exposure. Tetracycline's estimated photodegradation rate constant, which was 0.04013 min −1 , was 5 times more than that of the composite without Cu loading. Furthermore, the reaction mechanism was explored by electron spin resonance (ESR) test and free radical capture reagent. Intermediate products of tetracycline degradation were analyzed by liquid mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

Flexible hydrogels containing various osteogenic inorganic constituents, which can accommodate complicated shape variations, are considered as ideal grafts for craniofacial bone defect reconstruction. However, in most hybrid hydrogels, poor interaction between the polymer network and particles has detrimental effects on hydrogel rheological and structural properties, clinical manipulation and repair efficacy. In this article, we designed and prepared a series of hyaluronic acid composite hydrogel containing Cu-doped bioactive glass (CuBG) and phosphoserine (PS), in which hyaluronic acid was modified by methacrylate groups and phenylboronic acid groups to form a double crosslinked network. PS acted as an interaction bridge of CuBG particles and HAMA-PBA network to improve the mechanical properties of the composite hydrogels. The CuBG/PS hydrogels exhibited suitable rheological properties (injectable, self-healing, shape-adaptable), bone tissue integrating ability and anti-bacterial property. Meanwhile, we found that CuBG and PS have synergistic effect on improving osteogenic efficiency both in vitro and in vivo, particularly when the ratio of CuBG to PS is lower than 3 (9CB/3PS). This work provided a versatile and scalable approach to enhanced the interaction within inorganic particles and polymer network in hydrogels without extra modification on components.

Transition metal hydroxides have superior oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity but poor hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance, which greatly limits the water splitting for hydrogen production. Herein, copper modification of sulfur doped Co(OH) 2 hybrid catalyst (Cu@S-Co(OH) 2 ) was prepared by one-step of electrodeposition method which can serve as efficient hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst. In the presence of sulfur and copper, Cu@S-Co(OH) 2 hybrid catalyst exhibits the best catalytic activity, showing ultralow overpotential of 42 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 . Compared with Co(OH) 2 , the overpotential is improved by nearly 100 mV as well as enhanced stability. In addition, the active site poison experiments proved that the active center is cobalt metal. Combined with the adsorption strength of the catalyst for OH and H species, it is considered that both S and Cu can enhance the adsorption of OH for Co(OH) 2 , while S is contributed to the adsorption of H, and Cu can promote the desorption of H. This work provides a facile method and new insight to enhance the HER activity for transitional metal hydroxides via metal and non-metallic elements co-modulation.

Heavy-metal pollution is a significant environmental issue that has raised global concern due to its harmful impact on humans and the natural ecosystem. Heavy metal pollution poses several challenges in terms of remediation, including low adsorption capacity and efficiency, scale-up issues and non-degradability. Here, we developed an eco-friendly tunable dual-wavelength absorption mesoporous wood aerogel (TDWA) for removal of Cu 2+ ions from wastewater based on wood nanotechnology and carboxylated functionalization treatment. Nanostructured pores generated from the cell walls with carboxyl groups due to the removal of most lignin/hemicellulose and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine oxidation. Mechanical compression was parallelly applied to the transverse direction of TDWA resulted in removing micron-scale cell cavity and intercellular, which significantly improved the dynamic adsorption performance with an excellent Cu 2+ adsorption capacity of 115 mg g −1 . This value is superior to most wood-based adsorption membrane as wastewater mainly flowed through the continuous microfibril network in the cell wall. The double-layer mesoporous TDWA membrane (5 mm) possessed a favorable removal efficiency (99.83 %) even after 5-cyclic adsorption (92.34 %). The invented nanostructured TDWA membrane in the current study has promising potential to substitute the present plastic-based membrane in the realistic Cu 2+ adsorption because of the facile technology, renewability and high removal efficient, as well as the complete biodegradability.

Copper-based nanoinks are emerging as promising low-cost alternatives to widely used silver nanoinks in electronic printing. However, the spontaneous oxidation of copper under ambient conditions poses significant challenges to its broader application. To address this issue, this paper presents an economical, large-scale, and environmentally friendly method for fabricating Cu@Ag nanoparticles (Cu@Ag NPs). The as-prepared nanoparticles exhibit a narrow size distribution of approximately 100 nm and can withstand ambient exposure for at least 60 days without significant oxidation. The Cu@Ag-based ink, with a 60 wt% loading, was screen-printed onto a flexible polyimide substrate and subsequently heat-treated at 290 °C for 15 minutes under a nitrogen atmosphere. The sintered pattern displayed a low electrical resistivity of 25.5 μΩ·cm (approximately 15 times the resistivity of bulk copper) along with excellent reliability and mechanical fatigue strength. The innovative Cu@Ag NPs fabrication method holds considerable potential for advancing large-scale applications of copper-based inks in flexible electronics.Keywords:core–shell nanoparticles;antioxidation;conductive ink;printing electronics

Nitric oxide (NO) is a crucial gaseous medium for tumor growth and progression, but it may also cause mitochondrial disorder and DNA damage by drastically increasing its concentration in tumor. Due to its challenging administration and unpredictable release, NO based gas therapy is difficult to eliminate malignant tumor at low safe doses. To address these issues, herein, we develop a multifunctional nanocatalyst called Cu-doped polypyrrole (CuP) as an intelligent nanoplatform ( [email protected] ) to deliver the NO precursor BNN6 and specifically release NO in tumors. Under the aberrant metabolic environment of tumors, [email protected] catalyzes the conversion of antioxidant GSH into GSSG and excess H 2 O 2 into ·OH through Cu + /Cu 2+ cycle, which results in oxidative damage to tumor cells and the concomitant release of cargo BNN6. More importantly, after laser exposure, nanocatalyst CuP can absorb and convert photons into hyperthermia, which in turn, accelerates the aforesaid catalytic efficiency and pyrolyzes BNN6 into NO. Under the synergistic effect of hyperthermia, oxidative damage, and NO burst, almost complete tumor elimination is achieved in vivo with negligible toxicity to body. Such an ingenious combination of NO prodrug and nanocatalytic medicine provides a new insight into the development of NO based therapeutic strategies. Statement of significance A hyperthermia-responsive NO delivery nanoplatform ( [email protected] ) based on Cu-doped polypyrrole was designed and fabricated, in which CuP catalyzed the conversion of H 2 O 2 and GSH into ·OH and GSSG to induce intratumoral oxidative damage. After laser irradiation, hyperthermia ablation and responsive release of NO further coupled with oxidative damage to eliminate malignant tumors. This versatile nanoplatform provides new insights into the combined application of catalytic medicine and gas therapy.

Abstract Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) is currently considered as a vital indicator of food quality in antioxidant ability and attracts much attention for human healthcare. It is thus of great significance to realize the accurate and rapid detection of TAC in foods. Herein, we have constructed a preferable hybrid nanozyme based on the mesoporous silica-stabilized CuO composited Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 @MSNs@CuO, FMC NPs), which possess the enhanced peroxidase (POD)-like activity via cascade response for specific and sensitive determination of TAC in fruit foods. The results showed the hybrid nanozyme displayed a remarkable POD-like activity, excellent selectivity and sensitivity, and the limit of detection (LOD) of the colorimetric sensor was 6.13 mM with the concentration range from 10 to 45 mM. Therefore, the fabricated hybrid nanozyme can be regarded as an effective biosensor for the evaluation of antioxidant quality in fruit foods in future. Key points
• The stabilized bimetallic nanozyme was constructed for TAC analysis in fruits.
• The hybrid nanozyme possessed the enhanced POD-like activity by cascading effects.
• The nanozyme was an effective biosensor for antioxidant quality evaluation in fruits.

N anozymes have shown great potential for life sciences owing to their distinct advantages, such as low cost and high stability, compared with natural enzymes. Despite significant progress, state-of-art nanozymes commonly suffer from relatively low specific activities. Herein, we propose a promising to address this issue by creating single-atom nanozymes. A ball-milling-assisted strategy has been developed to induce the transformation of Cu species from bulk to single atoms. The highly-simplified steps allow a large-scale synthesis, that over 4.2 g of single-atom Cu−N doped carbon nanozymes can be achieved in one pot. It exhibits a remarkably improved peroxidase-like activity and stability compared with N doped C anchored Cu nanoparticles. Further experimental firmly reveals the crucial role of the single-atom Cu site that can generate more active ·OH species for boosting the catalytic process.

Delicate design and bottom-up synthesis of hollow nanostructures for oxygen evolution electrocatalysts is a promising way to accelerate the reaction kinetics of overall water splitting. Herein, an efficient and versatile strategy for the controllable preparation of Pd–Cu alloy nanoparticles encapsulated in carbon nanopillar arrays (PD–Cu@HPCN) is developed. Core–shell structured MOF@imidazolium-based ionic polymers (ImIPs) have been prepared and adopted as a template, along with the decomposition of the inner Cu–MOFs when an anion exchange occurs between sodium tetrachloropalladate in solution and bromides in the external ImIP shell. Pd nanoparticles will be highly dispersed in the resulting Pd–Cu@HO-ImIP array, and subsequent topotactic transformation generates Pd–Cu@HNPC. No hazardous reagents or tedious steps are used to remove the inner Cu–MOF templates in contrast to the traditional top-down methods. Remarkably, the Pd–Cu@HPCN catalyst possesses outstanding oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity, including small overpotential with 10 mA cm–2 at an overpotential of 188 mV, a large double layer capacitance (73.8 mF cm–2), and high stability (20 h). This simple, green, and efficient synthesis methodology represents a new way to design metal alloys for OER electrocatalysts or other electrocatalytic devices.

Ethanol (C2H5OH) is an economically ideal C2 product in electrochemical CO2 reduction. However, the CO2-to-C2H5OH conversion yield has been rather low and the underlying catalytic mechanism remains vague or unexplored in most cases. Herein, by decorating small Cu2S nanocrystals uniform ly on Cu nanosheets, three desirable features are integrated into the electrocatalyst, including a relatively high positive local charge on Cu (Cuδ+), abundant interfaces between Cuδ+ and zero-valence Cu0, and a non-flat, stepped catalyst surface, leading to the promoted affinity of *CO, decreased *COCO formation barrier, and thermodynamically preferred *CH2CHO-to-*CH3CHO conversion. As a result, a high partial current density of ∼20.7 mA cm–2 and a Faraday efficiency of 46% for C2H5OH are delivered at −1.2 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode in an H-cell containing a 0.1 M KHCO3 solution. This work proposes an efficient strategy for the high-yield CO2-to-C2H5OH conversion, emphasizing the promise for the industrial production of alcohol and related products from CO2.

Al 2 O 3 ceramic and 304 stainless steel were brazed with AgCuTi filler in this paper. Two kinds of composite filler were prepared by adding Cu foam and Cu foam covered with graphite (Gr-Cu foam) to relieve the residual stress of the joints. The effects of Cu foam pore size on the joints were investigated in detail, and the evolution mechanism of the joints was analyzed. Graphite-reinforced Cu foam was fabricated by spraying graphite for the first time. Results showed that the extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion of graphite and the good energy absorption performance of Cu foam were both conducive to reducing the thermal residual stress during the cooling process. Gr-Cu foam with pre-filled pores was used to solve the problems of structural dissolution of Cu foam and unfilled solder in Cu foam pores to a certain extent. And it played a key role in preventing the diffusion of metal atoms. The graphite on the surface of the Cu foam generated TiC in the brazing seam. The TiC and Cu foam promoted the formation of the TiCu strengthening phase. Furthermore, when the pore size of the Gr-Cu foam was 150 μm, the maximum shear strength of the joint was 246.84 MPa. This value was about 40% higher than that of Cu foam with the same pore size. The residual stresses of joint with and without graphite-reinforced were calculated, respectively, for both conditions. The reduction of residual stress was found after adding the graphite during brazing.
