A novel PNIPAAm-CD hydrogel with good adsorption property and stable fluorescence detection for Fe 3+ was prepared by copolymerizing PCDs with NIPAAm monomers. As a fluorescence probe, carbon quantum dots (CDs) were modified by glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) to obtain PCDs, which had double bond and could react with N-isopropyl acrylamide to form hydrogel. The functionalization of the amine groups on the surface of the PCDs enables PNIPAAm-CD hydrogel also exhibits photoluminescence behavior. In addition, the PNIPAAm-CD hydrogels stably shows higher adsorption performance for Fe 3+ than the pure PNIPAAm hydrogel. The honeycomb PNIPAAm-CD hydrogel had a good quenching response to metallic iron ions, and the detection limit was as low as 0.27 μM in the range of 1μM~1mM. The results of adsorption isotherms and adsorption kinetics showed that the adsorption procedure of metal ions conforms to the pseudo-second-order model and langmuir model, respectively. The effective detection and the high adsorption of PNIPAAm-CD hydrogel for Fe 3+ make it an effective portable platform potential, which has the dual functions of visual detection and adsorption of Fe 3+ .

Background Melanoma is an aggressive form of skin cancer, and single-modality treatments often fail to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis. Combination therapy has emerged as an effective approach to improve treatment outcomes.Methods In this study, we developed a multifunctional nanoplatform, MIL@DOX@ICG, utilizing MIL-101-NH2(Fe) as a carrier to co-deliver the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (DOX) and the photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG). MIL-101-NH2(Fe) was synthesized via a hydrothermal method. Drug release was evaluated under different pH conditions, and the photothermal effect was tested under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. Hydroxyl radical and reactive oxygen species generation capacities were quantified. Cellular studies using B16F10 cells assessed cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, migration inhibition, and colony formation suppression. In vivo experiments in melanoma-bearing mice evaluated antitumor efficacy and systemic safety through tumor growth inhibition, histological analyses, and toxicity assessments.Results MIL@DOX@ICG exhibited a uniform octahedral structure with a particle size of approximately 139 nm and high drug loading efficiencies for DOX (33.70%) and ICG (30.59%). The nanoplatform demonstrated pH-responsive drug release and potent photothermal effects. The generation of hydroxyl radicals via the Fenton reaction and reactive oxygen species production under NIR laser irradiation by MIL@DOX@ICG were confirmed. In vitro assessments revealed significant cytotoxicity of MIL@DOX@ICG against B16F10 cells under NIR laser irradiation, with improved efficacy in inhibiting cell proliferation and migration. In vivo studies confirmed the superior antitumor efficacy of MIL@DOX@ICG + NIR treatment, synergistically harnessing chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, and chemodynamic therapy effects while maintaining excellent biocompatibility.Conclusion Our findings underscore the potential of MIL-101-NH2(Fe) nanoparticles as a versatile and effective platform for synergistic melanoma therapy, offering a promising strategy for overcoming the limitations of conventional treatment modalities.

Fe/Mn (hydr)oxides are metallic compounds that exhibit significant redox activity in environmental media and play a pivotal role in geochemical processes, thereby influencing the fate of metals in porous media. The morphology of Fe/Mn (hydr)oxides in natural environments and their interactions with trace metals are significantly influenced by the presence of natural organic matter (NOM). However, there is limited understanding regarding the formation, transport, and stability of Fe/Mn (hydr)oxides in the environment. The present study employed humic acid (HA) as a representative NOM material to investigate the positive influence of HA on the formation of Fe/Mn colloids. However, there remains limited comprehension regarding the formation, transport, and stability of Fe/Mn (hydr)oxides in the natural environment. In this study, we investigated the positive effect of natural organic matter (NOM) on the formation of Fe/Mn colloids using humic acid (HA) as a representative NOM material. We comprehensively characterized the chemical and physical properties of HA–Fe/Mn colloids formed under various environmentally relevant conditions and quantitatively analyzed their subsequent aggregation and stability behaviors. The findings suggest that the molar ratios of C to Fe/Mn (hydr)oxide play a pivotal role in influencing the properties of HA–Fe/Mn colloids. The formation and stability of HA–Fe/Mn colloids exhibit an upward trend with increasing initial molar ratios of C to Fe/Mn. Redox and metal–carboxylic acid complexation reactions between HA and hydrated iron/manganese oxides play a pivotal role in forming colloidal HA–Fe/Mn complexes. Subsequent investigations simulating porous media environments have demonstrated that the colloidal structure resulting from the interaction between HA and Fe/Mn facilitates their migration within surrounding porous media while also enhancing their retention in the surface layers of these media. This study offers novel insights into the formation and stabilization mechanisms of HA–Fe/Mn colloids, which are pivotal for comprehending the behavior of Fe/Mn colloids and the involvement of Fe/Mn (hydr)oxides in geochemical cycling processes within porous media.

Phenol is one of the most important chemicals in industry. One-step selective benzene hydroxylation is an attractive yet challenging method for phenol production, especially when such a reaction can be driven by solar energy. Herein, we reported that a highly selective benzene hydroxylation to phenol can be achieved over two Fe-based metal–organic frameworks [MIL-100(Fe) and MIL-68(Fe)] under visible light irradiations using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant. An optimal benzene conversion of 30.6% was achieved with a H2O2:benzene ratio of 3:4 over MIL-100(Fe) after 24 h irradiations. ESR results and the kinetic studies suggested that a successful coupling of the photocatalysis of Fe–O clusters in Fe-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with a Fenton-like route is involved in this benzene hydroxylation process. The comparison of the reaction over MIL-100(Fe) and MIL-68(Fe) reveals that the structure of MOFs significantly influences the photocatalytic efficiency. Because the composition and the structure of MOFs are highly tunable, this study highlights the great potential of using Fe-based MOFs for photocatalytic benzene hydroxylation to form phenol, which may result in an economical, sustainable, and thus green process for phenol production.

Surfactants are easily accumulated in groundwater, sediment, and aquifers, due to their excessive use in household, industrial, and agricultural processes. These residual surfactants are expected to influence the transformation and fate of organic contaminants by Fe(II) sorbed on iron oxides in anaerobic environments. Here, we investigated the effects of various surfactants including nonionic TX-100, anionic SDBS and bio-surfactant saponin on the removal of nitrobenzene (NB) by Fe(II) sorbed on goethite (goethite/Fe(II)) through batch experiments. We also elucidated the mechanism behind the effects by XPS, XRD , and determination of the amounts of sorbed Fe(II) on goethite. The results showed that the presence of TX-100 improved NB removal from 77.2% in the absence of surfactant, to 93.8% within 6 h, and improved the removal rate by about 1.3 times. In contrast, the presence of SDBS decreased the removal efficiency to 45.5%, and the presence of saponin nearly inhibited the removal of NB completely. The removed NB was finally nearly reduced to aniline in the absence or presence of surfactants, except in the case of saponin. The amounts of sorbed Fe(II) listed in the sequence as goethite/Fe(II)+TX-100 > goethite/Fe(II) > goethite/Fe(II)+SDBS > goethite/Fe(II)+saponin, and this order negatively correlated with that in the redox potential of these systems. These results confirmed that the presence of surfactants influenced the sorption of Fe(II) on goethite and changed the reactivity of goethite/Fe(II) for NB removal. This finding will promote a clear understanding of the impact of coexisting surfactants on the transformation and fate of organic contaminants in real anaerobic environments.

The performance of chelated Fe(II)-based catalyzed sodium percarbonate (SPC) stimulating the degradation of perchloroethylene (PCE) in aqueous solution was investigated using six different chelating agents (CA), namely, citric acid monohydrate (CIT), oxalic acid (OA), l -ascorbic acid (ASC), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), trisodium citrate 2-hydrate (CIT-Na 3 ), and EDTA-Na 2 , at CA/Fe(II)/SPC/PCE molar ratios of 2/4/4/1, 4/4/4/1 and 8/4/4/1. The results indicated that the addition of CIT and OA significantly enhanced the PCE degradation. In addition, investigations using free radical probe compounds and radical scavengers revealed that PCE was primarily degraded by HO radical oxidation in Fe(II)/SPC, CIT/Fe(II)/SPC, and OA/Fe(II)/SPC systems and O 2 − also participated in the degradation of PCE in CIT/Fe(II)/SPC and OA/Fe(II)/SPC systems. The intensity of HO detected by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in CIT/Fe(II)/SPC and OA/Fe(II)/SPC systems indicated that the addition of CIT or OA indeed enhanced the continuous production of HO and enabled the intensity of HO to be more stable. The results demonstrated that CIT and OA significantly improved the PCE degradation efficiency by increasing the concentration of Fe(II) and maintaining the concentration of HO radicals in solution. In conclusion, chelated Fe(II)-based catalyzed SPC oxidation process shows enormous practical prospects for the remediation of PCE-contaminated groundwater because of the effectiveness without pre-adjusting the solution pH and complete mineralization in Fe(II)/SPC, CIT/Fe(II)/SPC and OA/Fe(II)/SPC systems.

In this work, the insulating SiO2 was coated successfully on the surface of reduced iron particles by a sol-gel method to decrease the core loss at low frequency. The scanning electron microscope images and elements analysis confirm that the surface of iron powders particles were covered by a thin insulating layer in the form of uniform core-shell structure. The samples were annealed at 400 °C in N2 atmosphere to obtain better magnetic properties. The annealed SMCs with 10 mL/h dropping rate of TEOS have optimum magnetic properties with low core loss Ps of 280.89 W/kg and high saturation magnetic flux density Bs of 1.038 T at 1000 Hz.

FeS is the main sulfur-containing compound in natural diamond inclusions. The research on FeS-doped diamond crystals plays an extremely important role in exploring the growth environment of natural diamond and the chemical composition of the earth. In our work, the characteristics of FeS doped diamond crystals were studied by using a China-type large volume cubic high-pressure apparatus with an iron–nickel alloy as a catalyst at 6.0 GPa and 1300–1350 °C. The crystals were characterized by OM, SEM, XPS, FTIR and Raman. Scanning electron microscopy of the crystal shows that the {100} plane of the crystal is rougher than {111}, which is related to the number of dangling bonds on different crystal faces of the crystal. The residue on the surface of the crystal was detected by mapping, and the test result showed that it was a sulfur iron and a sulfur nickel compound. FeS will decompose in the synthesis system, and the decomposition products are Fe and S2.The XPS spectrum of the crystal shows that S was successfully incorporated into the diamond lattice by forming C–S–O and C–S–SO2–C bonds, and the peak intensity was strong. The infrared spectrum shows that the N content in the crystal gradually increases as the doping ratio increases. Raman spectroscopy analysis shows that the S-doped Ib-type diamond single crystal has a high-quality sp3 structure, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the crystal gradually broadens as the doping ratio increases.

In this work, Fe, N co-doped hierarchical porous graphite-like carbon with carbon-encapsulated Fe/Fe 3 C@ Fe-N-C was synthesized by a facile solid-phase synthesis strategy, and was employed as an efficient catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for oxidation of tetracycline (TC). The optimal Fe-N/C 800 outlined a highly catalytic performance in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) with TC decomposition rate reaching 89.2 % in 20 min at ultra-low catalyst dosage. Meanwhile, the effect of operating parameters was also investigated in order to evaluate the potential of using Fe-N/C 800 in practical applications. In addition, the characterization analysis and experiments results elucidated that graphitic N, pyridinic N, C O, Fe 3 C, Fe 0 and FeN 4 were considered as the main reactive species promoting the PMS activation to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) (including singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ), sulfate radical (SO 4 •- ) and hydroxyl radical (•OH)). The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments and radicals quenching analyses further demonstrated that the non-radical species singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) was the dominant reactive oxygen species. Moreover, the TC degradation pathways were presented by LC-MS. Ultimately, the toxicity of the intermediate products were also investigated by ECOSAR system.

In the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), the non-reversible destruction of surface electronic structure caused by the irregular element migration in complex surface/interface reaction limits the improvement of catalyst’s activity and stability. Herein, we successfully realize the control of ‘dual-path migration of metallic elements in OER’ to stepwise reconstruct the O-coordinated bi-metal heterodimer (M 1 -O-M 2 ) for electron density redistribution. By designing Fe@FeNi 3 @NiO-Fe 3 O 4 (F-FN-NFO) model electrode with stepwise surface treatment in OER process, the directional migration (from core to shell, path 1 ) and adjacent-surface migration of Fe atoms ( path 2 ) are both controlled to reduce the formation energy of Ni-O-Fe units, realizing strengthened electron transfer between heterogeneous metal centers. After the surface reconstruction, the OER activity of F-FN-NFO increases for 8.6 times at 1.7 V (30.5–263 mA cm −2 ). Based on this strategy, the designed three-dimension NiFe@NiFe x O is positive activated compared to traditional NiFe-oxidation with the overpotential reduced to 299 mV at 10 mA cm −2 .

The traditional utilization of lignin mainly relies on direct combustion, which leads to low energy efficiency and environmental pollution, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the efficient utilization of all components of lignocellulose. This paper introduced a new strategy of microwave-assisted lignin hydrogenolysis over bifunctional catalyst Fe-Co/AC to achieve high-value conversion of lignin. This article firstly investigated the hydrogenolysis characteristics and product distribution patterns in the presence of Fe-Co/AC through catalyst characterization and adsorption calculation, as well as hydrogenolysis experiments. The results showed that the formation of Fe-Co alloy in the catalyst resulted in highly catalytic activity and selectivity for the hydrogenolysis process. Next, the intrinsic effects of solvent hydrogen donors and microwaves on lignin hydrogenolysis were discussed, through comparative experiments of hydrogenolysis in absence of catalyst and microwave-assisted pyrolysis. Lastly, attention was paid to calculate the adsorption characteristics and bond length changes of different substrates under metal components in order to reveal the mechanism of Fe-Co for synergistic catalyzing lignin hydrogenolysis, and to propose a potential pathway for lignin directed conversion into phenol. The findings provide a new approach for efficient bond breaking and intermediates hydrogenation of solid wastes such as lignin and plastics to obtain high value-added products.

Morphology regulation is a simple way to improve photocatalytic activity. In this work, a MIL-101(Fe) photocatalyst with cracked spindle morphology has been successfully prepared by EG pre-coordination solvothermal method . The cracking degree of MIL-101(Fe) can be regulated by adjusting pre-coordination time. The MIL-101(Fe) with the optimal uniform crack displays a best NH 3 evolution rate of 592 μmol h −1 g −1 under the visible light irradiation . Cracked MIL-101(Fe) is similar to a semi-exposed model, which can increase the number of reactive sites, improve refraction and reflection of light, and ultimately enhance the photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity. This work developed a convenient strategy to improve the photocatalytic activity of nitrogen reduction by controlling morphology.
