Persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes are promising technologies to solve water pollution. In this work, single iron atoms are anchored on three-dimensional N-doped carbon nanosheets by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method with ferrocene-loaded CaO as the hard template. The high surface density of Fe–N4 sites and abundant interconnected meso–macro pores are highly favorable for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to produce superoxide radicals (O2˙−), giving rise to ultrahigh activity and excellent stability for pollutant degradation. Experiment and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that Fe–N4 is the main active site, on which electrons transfer from C to Fe via the C–N–Fe bond to secure the low-valence state of Fe species for the redox process. This work proposes a new strategy for developing highly active single-atom materials by CVD and reveals mechanisms of PMS activation on single-atom activators.

Preparation of PdO/SiO 2 @graphene oxide (GO) hybrid aerogels were carried out sol-gel method combined with atmospheric drying technology to study their adsorption performance for thiophenics and compared with PdO/SiO 2 . Scanning electron microscope (SEM), N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) for samples were performed. The adsorption performance of PdO/SiO 2 @GO for thiophene were better than that of PdO/SiO 2 , attributed to that incorporation of GO increased the specific surface area and the Pd incorporation rate, where Pd 2+ ions acted as the π-complexation and sulfur-metal (S M) bond adsorption active centers, as well as GO adsorbed thiophene by the π-π stacking effect. The adsorption capacities of PdO/SiO 2 @GO-1.0 for thiophene (TH), benzothiophene (BT) and dibenzothiophene (DBT) were 8.89, 9.3 and 12.6 mg-S/g ads , respectively. The addition of GO in aerogels could improve the inhibition effect of toluene, cyclohexene and pyridine while decreased the inhibition effect of MTBE and H 2 O for the adsorption of thiophene, due to the π-π stacking effect and the hydrophobicity of GO, respectively. The adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic, be well fitted by the apparent second-order kinetic model and dominated by chemical interaction. Pd/SiO 2 @GO-1.0 had a good solvent elution regeneration performance.

In this research, the polypyrrole/silver (PPy/Ag) composite was first in-situ prepared on alginate fabrics by chemical oxidative polymerization of pyrrole (Py) monomer using silver nitrate as oxidant and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as the dopant. The effects of mole ratio of Py to silver nitrate, reaction time and dopant concentration on the preparation of PPy/Ag composite were optimized. It was found the optimal molar ratio of Py to silver nitrate was 1:1.5 with 0.02 M SDS under the reaction time of 10 h. Then, the microstructure and properties of resultant PPy/Ag composite were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy and the thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), respectively. Finally, the influences of PPy/Ag coating on the performance of alginate fabrics including electrical conductivity , hydrophilicity , antistatic property and anti-ultraviolet capability were determined. It was found that the electrical conductivity of alginate fabric could be intensively increased after PPy/Ag coating. Meantime, the anti-ultraviolet capability and hydrophobicity could be largely improved by PPy/Ag coating especially under high Py dosage. This paper introduced a simple method for preparing PPy/Ag composite direct on alginate fabric to make it a good functional substrate which could be applied in many fields.

Aerogel fibers with ultrahigh porosity, large specific surface area, and ultralow density have shown increasing interest due to being considered as the next generation thermal insulation fibers. However, it is still a great challenge to fabricate arbitrary aerogel fibers via the traditional wet-spinning approach due to the obvious conflict between the static sol–gel transition of the aerogel bulks and the dynamic wet-spinning process of aerogel fibers. Herein, a sol–gel confined transition (SGCT) strategy was developed for fabricating various mesoporous aerogel fibers, in which the aerogel precursor solution was first driven by the surface tension into the capillary tubes, then the gel fibers were easily formed in the confined space after static sol–gel process, and finally the mesoporous aerogel fibers were obtained via the supercritical CO2 drying process. As a typical case, the polyimide (PI) aerogel fiber prepared via the SGCT approach has exhibited a large specific surface area (up to 364 m2/g), outstanding mechanical property (with elastic modulus of 123 MPa), superior hydrophobicity (with contact angle of 153°), and excellent flexibility (with curvature radius of 200 μm). Therefore, the aerogel woven fabric made from PI aerogel fibers has possessed an excellent thermal insulation performance in a wide temperature window, even under the harsh environment. Besides, arbitrary kinds of aerogel fibers, including organic aerogel fibers, inorganic aerogel fibers, and organic–inorganic hybrid aerogel fibers, have been fabricated successfully, suggesting the universality of the SGCT strategy, which not only provides a way for developing aerogel fibers with different components but also plays an irreplaceable role in promoting the upgrading of the fiber fields.

Superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted great attention due to their interesting properties. The ever-increasing environmental concern accelerated the development of bio-based superhydrophobic coating materials. As a high-yield agricultural waste, bagasse is cheap, ready available, renewable and biodegradable. It would be an ideal raw material for the preparation of bio-based superhydrophobic coatings to further improve its application value. Although the hydrophobization of bagasse have been reported, the according works mainly focus on the reaction mechanism and/or their oil-absorption properties. As far as we know, the design of bagasse-based superhydrophobic coatings has been uncovered. Herein, mechanically pretreated bagasse was esterified with stearoyl chloride. Spray-coating the suspension of as-synthesized bagasse esters onto various substrates (glass slide, aluminum flake and filter paper), superhydrophobic surfaces were generated. SEM images in combination with the high-resolution C1s XPS deconvolution spectra implied that nano-structured bagasse esters were deposited on the synthesized micro-scaled esters, which was necessary for their superhydrophobicity. The as-prepared superhydrophobic surfaces exhibited good anti-fouling, oil absorption performance and high time/temperature/pH stability. This research would provide a novel perspective for the design of other bio-based superhydrophobic coatings. Graphic abstract

A biodegradable linear bio-based polyester of poly(hexylene succinate) was effectively prepared in non-metal sulfonic acid-functionalized Brønsted acidic ionic liquids (SFBAILs) as both the catalyst and the polymerization medium, and the processes of polycondensation and post-polycondensation in SFBAILs were also investigated. In addition, the side reactions which were detrimental to the growth of Mw of poly(hexylene succinate) were evaluated and the synthesis mechanism of poly(hexylene succinate) catalyzed by SFBAILs was discussed with the help of DFT calculations. The result shows that both the imidazole ring and the sulfonic group on cations of SFBAILs play an important role in the catalytic process.

As natural polymer materials, proteins are readily biodegradable, interestingly, the synthetic polyamides (PAs) that are based on the same amide bonds (also called peptide bonds in proteins) are barely degradable. Whether did the chirality and configuration of the amino acids play an important role. By using different configuration of amino acids, 4 types of polyamide-imides (PAIs) containing dipeptides ofLL,DL,LD, and DD configurations, respectively, were synthesized. It was found that the PAIs based on naturalLLconfiguration of dipeptide structure are much more readily biodegradable than those based on non-naturalLD,DL,andDDconfiguration of dipeptides. It was confirmed that the naturalL-configuration of amino acids play a critical role in degradability of proteins. And it also suggested that different type and amount of peptide fragments can be introduced in polymer to create series of polymer materials that can be biodegraded at controllable speed.Keywords:chiral amino acids;dipeptide;polyamide-imides;biodegradability

A convenient fluorometric method was developed for specific determination of DNA based on peptide nuclei acid (PNA)–regulated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between carbon dots (CDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In this system, CDs that display lake blue fluorescence with excitation/emission maxima at 345/445 nm were used as fluorometric reporter, while AuNPs were used as fluorescence nanoquencher. A neutral PNA probe, which is designed to recognize the target DNA, was used as a coagulant to control the dispersion and aggregation of AuNPs. Without DNA, PNA can induce immediate AuNP aggregation, thus leading to the recovery of the FRET-quenched fluorescence emission of CDs. However, the addition of the complementary target DNA can protect AuNPs from being aggregated due to the formation of DNA/PNA complexes, which subsequently produces a high fluorescence quenching efficiency of CDs by dispersed AuNPs. Under optimized conditions, quantitative evaluation of DNA was achieved in a linear range of 5–100 nM with a detection limit of 0.21 nM. This method exhibited an excellent specificity towards fully matched DNA. In addition, the application of this assay for sensitive determination of DNA in cell lysate demonstrates its potential for bioanalysis and biodetection.
A simple fluorometric biosensor for specific detection of DNA was developed based on peptide nuclei acid (PNA)–regulated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between carbon dots (CDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).

Acid hydrolysis and enzymatic hydrolysis are the main methods for releasing glycosidically bound volatiles (GBV). However, acid hydrolysis yields a strong pungent odor, and enzymatic hydrolysis is time consuming. In the present study, a new method, ultrasound hydrolysis, is reported to release GBV. This method is simple, environmentally friendly, fast and effective. Large differences were observed in the released aglycones and glycosyls between ultrasound and enzymatic hydrolysis of GBV. More types of aglycones were released under ultrasound than enzymatic hydrolysis. Alcohols and esters were the main aglycones under enzymatic hydrolysis, and terpenoids, esters and aldehydes were the main aglycones under ultrasound hydrolysis. The glycosyls released under ultrasound hydrolysis were mannose, glucose and sucrose, and those released under enzymatic hydrolysis were galactose and sucrose. The present study gives a new insight into a hydrolytic method for GBV by using ultrasound hydrolysis and can provide a reference method for fruit juice aromatization.

Synthesized by the reaction between α-cellulose and m-tolyl isocyanate (MTI), cellulose carbamate (CC) was blended with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to fabricate substrates for thin-film composite (TFC) forward osmosis (FO) membranes. The introduction of CC into substrates improved both membrane structure and performance. The substrates exhibited higher porosity and hydrophilicity, and better connective pore structure; while rejection layer exhibited better morphology but limited cross-linked degree decrease after the introduction of CC. According to the results, the CC blend ratio of 10% was the optimal ratio. With this blend ratio, the TFC-10 membrane presented favorable water permeability (1.86 LMH/bar) and structure parameter (337 μm), which resulted in excellent FO performance (water flux with a value of 40.40 LMH and specific salt flux with a value of 0.099 g/L under rejection layer faces draw solution [DS] mode when 1 M NaCl and deionized water were utilized as DS and feed solution). In addition, the TFC-10 membrane showed good water flux and low-sulfate ion leakage in the potential application of brackish water desalination.

Background One classic traditional Chinese medicine theory is that the “lung and intestine are exterior-interiorly related”; however, this has not been confirmed experimentally. The aim of this study was to provide a biological basis for the theory by measuring the tissue distribution of andrographolide. Methods Acute pneumonia was induced in a mouse model by repeated stimulation with lipopolysaccharide. The distribution of andrographolide in mice was observed by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with [ 18 F]-labeled andrographolide, and changes in the in vivo distribution before and after modeling were compared. Subsequently, the consistency of pathological changes in lung and intestine was confirmed by observation of pathological sections. Finally, the results were verified by cytokine detection. Results The value of organ uptake, pathological changes and inflammatory factor expression of the lung and intestine were consistent. The concentration of andrographolide in the lung and intestine increased significantly, and was confirmed by pathology and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Conclusions Micro-positron emission tomography (microPET) can be used to visually observe the distribution of medicinal ingredients in vivo, and [ 18 F]-andrographolide can be used as a tool to assess the interior-exterior relationship between the lung and intestine.

Electrochromic (EC) materials have captured intense attentions in the field of smart window, label screen and camouflage recently. The structure of EC active group is crucial to the properties of product. In this study, novel PAs with EC and memory properties were developed by polycondensation of asymmetry triarylamine N, N ' -bis(4-aminophenyl)-N-isopropyl-N ' -phenylbenzene-1,4-diamine (IPATAA) with five different dicarboxylic monomers. An isopropyl group of the IPATAA molecule is linked to a nitrogen atom to increase electron density and solubility. Furthermore, PAs are apt to be processed into a film by spin-coating or printing. After electro-oxidation, PAs films change from colorless to blue. The coloring time and bleaching time is 2.8–4.1 s and 2.6–4.5 s, respectively. The highest coloring efficiency of PAs film is 366 cm 2 C −1 . Memory devices made using the PAs show non-volatile memory characteristics such as lower switching threshold voltages (<1.08 V) and better switching current ratios (>2 × 10 4 ).
