Using Al(OH) 3 and Mg(OH) 2 as raw materials, MgAl layered double hydroxides (LDHs) modified from birch leaves were prepared by the ball-milling–hydrothermal method, denoted as LDHs/BL, and used for the treatment of wastewater containing Cu(II). The morphology, crystal shape, and specific surface area of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and BET-specific surface area analyzer. The results showed that the prepared LDHs/BL composites had good crystal shape, large specific surface area, and suitable pore structure. Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models were used to analyze the adsorption. The results showed that the adsorption conforms to the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model. Under the same adsorption conditions, the adsorption capacity of the LDHs/BL complex was higher than that of LDH, the removal efficiency of the former was 92%, and that of the latter was 68%. The adsorption mechanism includes metal precipitation and isomorphic replacement. More importantly, this study provides a green method to prepare LDHs. LDHs/BL composites are expected to be used as a new kind of environmental adsorbent for wastewater treatment. This work provides a new idea for the utilization of agricultural and forestry wastes. Nanocomposites of LDHs/BL were fabricated. The LDHs/BL nanocomposites exhibit enhanced sorption capacities for Cu(II). The nanocomposites are potential sorbents for wastewater treatment. The synthesis of LDHs/BL nanocomposites provides a win–win strategy.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been widely used as laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) nanomaterials for the analysis of low-molecular-weight samples. Nickel/iron-layered double hydroxides (NiFe-LDHs) nanosheets can support the anchoring of AuNPs and enhance the ability of desorption/ionization. Their hybrid nanocomposites are expected to produce synergistic effects to improve the performance of LDI-MS. In this work, a novel AuNPs/NiFe-LDHs nanomaterial was synthesized by self-assembly method and characterized based on TEM , SEM , XPS, UV-vis and FTIR-ATR. AuNPs/NiFe-LDHs assisted LDI-TOF MS exhibited higher peak intensity and lower background noise compared with conventional organic matrices. Furthermore, excellent salt and protein tolerance, good repeatability and quantification were observed when MNZ and its metabolites were detected in the range of 1–50 ng·μL −1 ( R 2 > 0.98), with LODs and LOQs of 0.5 ng·μL −1 and 1 ng·μL −1 , respectively. This nanocomposite could also be used for the analysis of some other small molecules, such as antibiotics, sugars, amino acids and pesticides, demonstrating the potential to detect a variety of environmental chemicals. Taken together, the developed method combined the advantages of two nanomaterials and can provide rapid and accurate analysis of MNZ and its metabolites in water samples, as well as some other small molecules.

High-efficient catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are crucial to energy storage and conversion between electricity and chemicals. This work proposes a facile co-reduction and subsequent co-oxidation strategy to gram-scale preparation of composition-controllable LDHs nanosheets by a case study of Ni-Fe LDHs. Different from the traditional coprecipitation method, this process does not need heating and pH control. More importantly, our method can make sure that the Ni-Fe proportion in the LDHs products is well consistent with that in the mother solution. Furthermore, the electrocatalytic OER results strongly demonstrate that the as-prepared Ni-Fe LDHs possess a top-scale activity toward OER in alkaline media, typically for the Ni 6 Fe 4 -LDH nanosheets with water oxidation overpotential as low as 0.24 V at a current density of 20 mA/cm 2 . Besides, it presents excellent stability during the endurance test. Therefore, the co-reduction and subsequent co-oxidation strategy is an highly efficient way to LDHs nanosheets for electrochemical applications.

Magnetic attapulgite/carbon supported NiFe layered double hydroxides (APT/C@NiFe-LDHs) were fabricated based on the spent bleaching earth via a facile and green hydrothermal approach. Multiple characterizations were conducted to illustrate that NiFe-LDHs was successfully anchored on the surface of APT during the preparation process. The magnetic response and adsorption properties of as-prepared composites could be facilely controlled by varying the Ni/Fe molar ratio . As expected, the coating of NiFe-LDHs significantly increased the adsorption ability to pollutants, the resultant composites prepared at the Ni/Fe molar ratio of 1:1 exhibited excellent adsorption capacities for methylene blue , Pb(II), and chlortetracycline hydrochloride of 271.28, 180.90, and 308.21 mg/g, respectively. The high adsorption capacity of the obtained adsorbents could be ascribed to the synergetic effect of the carbon species and NiFe-LDHs. In addition, the adsorbent could be easily separated by magnetic separation technology, and exhibited a stable recyclability after six adsorption-desorption cycles. This work provided a feasible pathway to design and fabricate adsorption materials for wastewater treatment taken into account both high-performance adsorption and cost-effective way.

Powder Li/Al-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) of Li 2 Al 4 (CO 3 )(OH) 12 ·3H 2 O were hydrothermally synthesized in one pot with sodium alginate as a structure modifier and granulated by crosslinked sodium alginate. The powder and granulated Li/Al-LDHs lithium adsorbents were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, and porosity. The adsorption-desorption performance of the granulated Li/Al-LDHs adsorbents was evaluated. Adsorption isotherm , adsorption kinetics , adsorption thermodynamics were investigated. The effects of solution pH, temperature, and the electrolytes (NaCl, Na 2 SO 4 , MgCl 2 , and KCl) on lithium adsorption, and the dissolution of granulated Li/Al-LDHs adsorbents after cyclic adsorption-desorption were also investigated. The granulated Li/Al-LDHs adsorbed 14.5 mg/g of lithium from the brine of East Taigener Salt Lake with a lithium concentration of 1400 mg/L. The granulation of powder Li/Al-LDHs by crosslinked alginate greatly reduced the dissolution of powder Li/Al-LDHs. The granulated Li/Al-LDHs adsorbents prepared in this report are promising materials for Li + extraction from salt lake brines.

A hierarchical superhydrophobic Al-Li layered double hydroxide (LDH) films with different Li + /Al 3+ molar ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 2:1, pH value of 11.5 and reaction temperature of 125 °C, have been fabricated on the surface of Mg-5Li-1Al (LA51) alloys by hydrothermal method following the characteristics of controllable cation structure and exchangeable anion between layers. The properties of the films were investigated by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). XRD and SEM results indicate that the Al-Li LDH films are successfully prepared on LA51 alloys. The contact angle (CA) was measured to be about 100.7°, indicating that the surface wettability of the film converted from hydrophilic to hydrophobic by surface modification. The corrosion resistance of Al-Li LDH films was evaluated by Tafel polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Surprisingly, Tafel polarization curve and EIS test reveal that the Al-Li LDH films prepared at the molar ratio of Li + /Al 3+ 1:2, pH 11.5 and temperature 125 °C have better corrosion resistance in 0.1 M NaCl neutral solution. In addition, the formation mechanism and corrosion mechanism of the films on the surface of LA51 alloy are also proposed. It provides innovative synthetic materials and novel design ideas for the preparation of high-efficiency anti-corrosion coatings on LA51 alloys, whose application can be extended in industrial fields.

Nickel-based layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are promising electrode materials in the fields of energy storage (supercapacitors) and conversion (urea oxidation). The rational construction of atomic and electronic structure is crucial for nickel-based LDHs to realize their satisfactory electrochemical performance. Herein, we report a facile, ecofriendly, one-step synthesis process to construct petal-like oxygen-deficient NiAl-LDH nanosheets for hybrid super-capacitors (HSCs) and urea oxidation reaction (UOR). The asprepared NiAl−LDH nanosheets with rich oxygen vacancies possess a large specific surface area of 216.6 m 2 g −1 and a desirable electronic conductivity of 3.45 × 10 −4 S cm −1 to deliver an ultra-high specific capacitance of 2801 F g −1 (700 C g −1 ) at 1 A g −1 . Furthermore, high specific energy of 50.0 W h kg −1 at 400 W kg −1 and excellent cycle stability with 91% capacitance retention after 10,000 cycles are achieved by the NiAl-LDHs/CFP (carbon fiber paper) (+)//YP-80F (a commercial activated carbon) (−) HSC. Besides, NiAl−LDH nanosheets also work as an efficient electrocatalyst for UOR, which only requires 1.42 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode to drive 10 mA cm −2 in 1 mol L −1 KOH with 0.33 mol L −1 urea. This remarkable performance is superior to most reported values of previous candidates owing to the thin structure of NiAl−LDH nanosheets for exposing more active sites and abundant oxygen vacancies. In addition, various reaction parameters are investigated to optimize the electrochemical performance. In general, this work paves a new way for the architecture of multifunctional nanostructured energy materials.

Developing highly efficient, inexpensive, and stable electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is indispensable to building a sustainable and large-scale hydrogen conversion system. In this work, we designed a ternary NiVFe layered double hydroxide nanosheet on porous nickel foam via hydrothermal method to prepare a self-supporting electrocatalyst and co-doped with boron and phosphorus which control the electronic structure of the nanosheets. Simultaneous, the B-P co-doping formation numerous defects and amorphous regions on the nanosheet, which guarantees efficient active sites and enhanced active surface area. As expected, the electrochemical test of HER results shows that the NiVFe-B-P LDHs@NF requires an overpotentials of 117 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm −2 in the 1.0 M KOH electrolyte without iR compensation, as well as exhibits excellent stability of 24 h at current densities of 10 mA·cm −2 and 50 mA·cm −2 , respectively. Moreover, evaluation of wettability shows that the electrocatalyst has excellent superhydrophilicity and superaerophobicity. We expect the results of this work provides a fresh perspective for double-nonmetal co-doping electrocatalysts with efficient hydrogen generation.

An inorganic adsorbent with conveniently recovery performance is attractive in the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater. Herein magnetic Mg–Al layered double hydroxide composites (Mag-LDHs) and its calcination compound, Mag-LDHs (Mag-LDO), have been successfully prepared. Their physicochemical characteristic was analyzed with XRD, SEM, XPS, VSM, FT-IR, TGA, Zeta potential and N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherms. The adsorption behavior of both adsorbents toward uranium were investigated. The solid–liquid separation could be conveniently achieved by external magnetic field. The maximum theoretical adsorption capacities toward U(VI) were 436.16 mg/g for Mag-LDHs and 317.71 mg/g for Mag-LDO. The adsorption capacity of Mag-LDHs and Mag-LDO retained 80.72% and 85.58% even undergoing five adsorption–desorption cycles. The study proposed Mag-LDHs and Mag-LDO as alternative uranium-specific adsorbents applicable in the acid wastewater (pH = 5.5).

In this paper, based on oxygen rich vacancies Bi 2 WO 6 -Ov@CoFe-LDHs heterojunction (BWO-Ov@LDHs), which can efficiently activate PS under visible light, BWO-Ov@LDHs/PS material system was fabricated for efficient degradation of tetracycline (TC). After 30 minutes photodegradation, the removal of TC by BWO-Ov@LDHs/PS reached 93.4 %, which is 2.9–3.1 times than that of pure PS and BWO-Ov@LDHs. Based on band structure, XPS result and theoretical calculations such as work function and differential charge density, it indicates that the Z-scheme heterojunction accelerates the transfer and conversion of electrons, and the activation of persulfate ions generates sulfate radicals, enhancing the photocatalytic performance, the variable valence state further strengthens the generation of sulfate radicals, and the tripartite synergy promotes the efficient photocatalytic degradation of TC. The results based on LC-MS provided the intermediate products and pathways of the degradation process, while toxicity analysis showed that the toxicity of intermediate products was lower.

A smart means to achieve the harmless treatment of corrosive Cl – have been proposed for protecting brass. In this method, intelligent self-healing nanofilms based on the interlayer anion exchange properties of LDHs in situ grow on brass surfaces. The Cl – ions replace the BTA – loaded between LDHs interlayers to induce self-healing, as the binding energy of Cl – is lower than that of BTA – , obtained from theoretical calculations. The simultaneous application of electrochemistry and digital holography technologies confirmed that the constructed film has high instantaneous corrosion inhibition efficiency (99.9 %), long-lasting corrosion resistance, and self-healing ability (50 days).

Blast furnace slag (BFS) is a kind of waste produced in industrial production, as well as a valuable secondary resource. In this paper, layered double hydroxides composites (BFS/LDHs) were prepared by aqueous polymerization, with industrial waste BFS as modifier and magnesium nitrate, aluminium nitrate, and urea as raw materials. BFS/LDHs have been characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), fourier infrared spectrometer (FT IR), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and the specific surface area analyser (BET). The adsorption of BFS/LDHs on Cu (II) and methylene blue (MB) was investigated by batch experiments. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of BFS/LDHs to Cu (II) is stronger than that of MB. What’s more, the solid concentration effect was found in the process of sorption kinetics and sorption isotherms. The sorption kinetics curves of Cu (II) and MB on BFS/LDHs were well fitted by the quasi-second-order kinetics under different adsorbent concentrations. Langmuir and Freundlich sorption isotherm models were used to analyse the adsorption. It showed that the adsorption conforms to Langmuir and Freundlich’s adsorption isotherm models. The BFS/LDHs composites have good recycling availability in this adsorption process of Cu (II) and MB, the removal capacity of which was reduced by 16.1% and 3.8% after being recycled for six times, respectively. More importantly, BFS/LDHs composites are not only expected to become a sewage treatment agent, but also to solve the problem of industrial waste treatment, which is a win–win strategy.
