A benzophenone-containing SET-LRP initiator based on renewable and abundant cardanol was synthesised in 71 % yield using the selective etherification reaction. Next, methyl methacrylate (MMA) as a monomer was polymerised under SET-LRP conditions using the newly prepared initiator to prepare cardanol-end poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The kinetic results of the polymerisation indicated that the reaction was controllable when the monomer conversion was lower than approximately 50 %, and the molecular masses of PMMA measured by GPC were higher than the theoretical values while the monomer conversion was more than 50 %. In addition, most of the carbon-carbon double bonds of the side hydrocarbon chain of the end-cardanol group in the PMMA were kept intact from 1 H NMR spectrum characterisation. Accordingly, when the cardanol-end PMMA together with a tertiary amine-containing cardanol derivative was irradiated by UV light, the corresponding UV-cured resin was obtained. The chemical resistance and hardness of the UV-cured film were enhanced with the increasing irradiation time.

A series of thioxanthone dicarboxamide derivatives (TX-DCAs) containing hydrogen donors as one-component photoinitiators (PIs) have been prepared. In particular, the photoreactivity of these PIs was remarkably improved due to the covalent binding of the N-phthalimido derivative and type II chromophore thioxanthone. These derivatives exhibit interesting shifted absorption so that they can be utilized as versatile PIs upon exposure to various violet and visible LEDs (365 nm, 385 nm, 395 nm and 405 nm), and can efficiently actuate the free radical photopolymerization of acrylates.

A novel phosphorus-containing hyperbranched macromonomer (PHM), successfully synthesized via Michael addition polymerization of tri(acryloyloxyethyl) phosphate (TAEP) with n-butylamine (BA), was blended with epoxy acrylate resin (EA) to prepare UV curable flame retardant coatings. The study of thermal degradation of these coatings revealed that PHM can catalyze the degradation of EA, contributing to the formation of thermally stable char layer. The residues of EA3 (which contains 45 wt.% PHM) at various temperatures were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the results displayed that the formation of phosphorus-carbon structure can well protect the carbonaceous char from thermal-oxidative degradation at 800 °C. Besides, the investigation of the flammability illustrated that the addition of PHM increased the limiting oxygen index (LOI) value and reduced the peak heat rate release (HRR) and total heat release (THR).

The baicalin and baicalein are the major flavonoids found in Radix Scutellariae , an essential herb in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. The interactions of the baicalin and baicalein with lipid bilayer membranes were studied using cyclic voltammetry and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The thickness d of supported bilayer lipid membranes was calculated as d = 4.59(± 0.36) nm using AC impedance spectroscopy . The baicalein interacted with egg PC bilayer membranes in a dose-dependent manner. The responses of K 3 Fe(CN) 6 on lipid bilayer membrane modified Pt electrode linearly increased in a concentration range of baicalein from 6.25 μM to 25 μM with a detection limit of 0.1 μM and current-concentration sensitivity of 0.11(± 0.01) μA/μM, and then reached a plateau from 25 μM to 50 μM. However the baicalin showed much weaker interactions with egg PC bilayer membranes. UV–Vis spectroscopy also confirmed that the baicalein could interact with egg PC membranes noticeably, but the interaction of baicalin with membranes was hard to be detected. The results provide useful information on understanding the mechanism of action of Radix Scutellariae in vivo.

Herein, we report, for the first time, the synthesis of reduced graphene oxide–DNA–Ag (RGO–DNA–Ag) nanohybrids by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of aqueous solutions of GO and Ag ions in the presence of DNA . The morphology and microstructure characterizations of the resultant nanohybrids reveal that the proposed method leads to the simultaneous reduction of GO and Ag ions together with efficient dispersion of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of RGO sheets. This simple and fast synthesis route is carried out at ambient conditions without using any additional chemical reducing agents, which has the potential to provide new avenues for the green fabrication of various RGO-based nanomaterials . Additionally, the RGO–DNA–Ag nanohybrids can be utilized as a novel sensing interfacial for direct determination of iodide by simple differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), without requiring any preceding preconcentration of the analyte. Based on the RGO–DNA–Ag nanohybrids modified electrode , a wide linear range of 1 μM–1 mM and a low detection limit of 0.2 μM were obtained. This sensitive and direct method of analysis can be applied successfully to the determination of iodide in real samples.

In this work, a new polyvinylidene fluoride nano-ultrafiltration membrane modified by graphene oxide/ titanium dioxide doped with cerium composite materials (GO/Ce-TiO 2 -PVDF) was prepared by phase inversion method. The water contact angle, porosity, pore size distribution , and photocatalytic performance of the membrane were studied. Compared with the PVDF membrane, the water contact angle of the modified membrane decreased to 36.5°, the pure water flux improved to 119.64 L·m -2 ·h -1 , and the retention rate of bovine serum albumin (BSA) was 95.3%. The synergistic effect of GO and Ce-TiO 2 could improve the photocatalytic activity of the composite membrane , and the degradation rate of BSA was 97.4%. The flux recovery rate (FRR) of the modified membrane was 82.38%, which was 22.24% higher than that of the PVDF membrane (67.39%). The FRR of the modified membrane increased to 91.54% under water cleaning and UV irradiation. Five cycle experiments showed that the permeate flux of the polluted membrane was further restored from 78.45 L·m -2 ·h -1 to 76.95 L·m -2 ·h -1 after UV irradiation, and the retention rate of BSA was maintained at about 95%. Therefore, as predicted, the GO/Ce-TiO 2 -PVDF membrane could be widely applied in the water treatment industry due to its high anti-fouling and self-cleaning performances.

Due to the poor UV protection capability, natural silk fabrics not only suffer from easy damage by sunshine but also induce possible sunburn in the human body. Efficient azobenzene isomerization and enhanced UV shielding are realized by replacing the natural silk with natural protein silk fibroin (SF) and electrospinning together with light-responsive copolymer P(MEO 2 - co -OEG 300 - co -AHMA). Compared to a solution cast film, the absorption peak intensity at 355 nm is 60 % higher in UV–Vis spectra of the electropsun SF/P(MEO 2 - co -OEG 300 - co -AHMA) fabrics. This improvement is related to the highly oriented chains, inducing more space and higher efficiency for azobenzene isomerization. Only exposure to visible light for 20 min, the absorption peak corresponding to the trans- state at 355 nm recovers to 92.5 % in the electrospun fabrics, which is at least 100 % faster than that in the solution cast film (50 min). It is related to the zip effect of the isomerization in the oriented chain structure. Thus, not only the absorption of UV radiation, but also the isomerization rate is enhanced. Based on these unique absorption and recovery capabilities, the SF based electrospun fabrics can be used to replace the natural silk fabrics for UV shielding in summer, especially for cyclic use.

Polylactic acid (PLA) possesses characteristics such as biodegradability, ease of processing, and environmental friendliness, making it an ideal alternative to petroleum-based polymers. However, PLA has drawbacks such as susceptibility to hydrolysis and sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) light, limiting its application in certain areas. In this study, poly(carbazole diimide) (PCDI) and the epoxy chain extender Joncryl ADR4468 (CE) were employed as a synergistic anti-hydrolysis agent for PLA, and tannic acid (TA) was used as a UV-resistant agent. A melt-blending process was employed to prepare PLA composite materials with enhanced resistance to both hydrolysis and UV radiation. The results indicate that the addition of PCDI-TA-CE significantly improved the performance of PLA. After 8 h of hydrolysis at 80 °C, the tensile strength of PLA increased from 38.31 MPa for pure PLA to 77.69 MPa with the incorporation of PCDI-TA-CE. The elongation at break increased from 0.6% to 1.5%, and the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) value elevated from 3.19 for pure PLA to 503.46.This demonstrates that PCDI, CE, and TA can effectively enhance the anti-hydrolysis and UV resistance properties of PLA.

This work aimed to investigate the protective effects of collagen hydrolysates containing different contents of Gly-Pro-Xaa tripeptides on UV-induced photoaging mice and to identify potent anti-photoaging peptides. Results showed that oral ingestion of collagen hydrolysates with a higher content of Gly-Pro-Xaa tripeptides (∼11.4%, HCH) dramatically enhanced the absorption of Pro-Hyp, Hyp-Gly, and Gly-Pro-Hyp into the body, which were 1.77-, 2.18-, and 65.07-fold higher in area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) values than that of collagen hydrolysates with a lower content of Gly-Pro-Xaa tripeptides (∼3.8%, LCH), respectively. Furthermore, the protective effects of HCH on the photo-aged skin of mice were significantly stronger than those of LCH in terms of increases in the contents of hyaluronic acid and collagen, improvement in skin elasticity and epidermal thickness, alleviation in inflammation, and decreases in the contents of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and MMP-3. More importantly, Gly-Pro-Hyp displayed potent anti-photoaging activities comparable to HCH based on an equivalent amount of Hyp. Network pharmacology analysis for potential mechanisms further indicated that Gly-Pro-Hyp might interact with JUN and FOS and regulate IL-17 and TNF signaling pathways. Collectively, our results suggested that HCH had great potential to be applied in functional foods for skin health and Gly-Pro-Hyp was found to be a potent collagen-derived anti-photoaging peptide, which might contribute to the excellent anti-photoaging effects of HCH.

In this work, surface-modified Ce-Zr oxides and ZnO nanoparticles were conveniently prepared by dopamine (Dpa) treatment and then composited with epoxy (EP) by hot pressing. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and UV-shielding properties of the EP composites with surface modification with Dpa-CZ and Dpa-ZnO were measured. The TGA results showed that the modified treated fillers had no loss of heat resistance of the matrix and had an enhancement effect on the initial and maximum decomposition temperatures. In addition, the UV-shielding properties of EP composites after Dpa-CZ and Dpa-ZnO modifications both showed a significant enhancement effect compared to pure EP. The T(UVA) of the 0.5 wt% Dpa-ZnO modified composite decreased to less than 0.017%, and the T(UVB) decreased to less than 0.0059%. The T(UVA) of the 0.5 wt% Dpa-CZ modified composite decreased to less than 15.98%, and the T(UVB) decreased to below 1.14%. The composites have both excellent thermal stability and UV-shielding efficiency.

Understanding the degradation kinetics and mechanisms of trace organic contaminants (TrOCs) by UV-based advanced oxidation processes (UV-AOPs) are pivotal in realizing their efficient application in water treatment. However, the relevant knowledge in practical flow-through reactors remains a void, compared with that of commonly used batch reactors. To fill the knowledge gaps, the current work investigated the degradation of atrazine (ATZ) in flow-through UV-AOP systems with different light sources and chlorine additions. The results showed that UV/Cl2in the reactors (with a diameter of 50 mm) was not very efficient in ATZ degradation while the pseudo-first order degradation rate constant was elevated by over 2.7 times with vacuum UV (VUV)/UV. In contrast to observations in the batch reactors, the addition of chlorine to the flow-through VUV/UV system unexpectedly decreased the rate constant by about 39%. The analysis of the relative contributions of different degradation pathways revealed that the inhibitory effect of the chlorine addition arose from the transformation of HO•to reactive chlorine species (e.g., ClO•) which had low reaction rate constants with ATZ. The baffle implementation promoted the ATZ degradation by 12–58%, mainly due to an enhanced mixing that facilitated the radical oxidation. The energy costs of the UV-AOPs in ATZ removal ranged within 0.40–1.11 kWh m−3order−1. The findings of this work are helpful in guiding efficient VUV/UV and VUV/UV/Cl2processes in drinking water treatment.

The ecological impact of emerging contaminants (ECs) in aquatic environments has raised concerns, particularly with regards to urine as a significant source of such contaminants in wastewater. The current investigation used the UV/Peracetic Acid (UV/PAA) processes, an innovative advanced oxidation technology, to effectively separate two emerging pollutants from urine at its source, namely, ciprofloxacin (CIP) and bisphenol A(BPA). The research findings demonstrate that the presence of the majority of characteristic ions has minimal impact on the degradation of ECs. However, in synthetic hydrolyzed urine, only NH 4 + inhibits the degradation of two types of ECs, with a more pronounced effect observed on CIP degradation compared to BPA.The impact of halogen ions, specifically Cl − and I − , on the degradation of CIP in synthetic hydrolyzed urine was a complex phenomenon. When these two halogen ions are present individually, the generation of reactive halogen species (RHS) within the system enhances the degradation of CIP. However, when both types of ions coexist, the formation of diatomic radical species partially inhibits degradation. In terms of BPA degradation, while the production of reactive chlorine species (RCS) to some extent hinders the reaction rate, the generation of reactive iodine species (RIS) promotes the overall process. CIP undergoes fragmentation of the piperazine and quinoline rings, decarboxylation, defluorination reactions, as well as substitution reactions, leading to the formation of products with simplified structures. The degradation of BPA occurs gradually through hydroxyl and halogen substitution as well as isopropyl cleavage. The preliminary toxicity analysis confirmed that the presence of halogen ions in urine resulted in the formation of halogenated products in two types of ECs, albeit with an overall reduction in toxicity. The UV/PAA processes was considered to be an effective and relatively safe approach for the separation of ECs in urine.
