Herein, we synthesized snowflake-like DNA crystals (SDC) via hybridization chain reaction and used it for the first time in the synthesis of copper nanoclusters with enhanced fluorescence. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and laser confocal microscopy characterization confirmed that SDC/CuNCs are self-assembled successfully on SDC. Aggregation induced emission allows SDC/CuNCs to exhibit better stability and stronger emission intensity. Thus, we developed the “turn-on” label-free fluorescence detection method of actin based on SDC/CuNCs which offer simplicity, low cost, good selectivity , and high sensitivity. The detection limit was determined to be 0.0124 μg mL −1 , which was an order of magnitude lower than that of reported fluorescent methods (0.12 μg mL −1 ). Compared with previous method, the linear range is also much wider. We also performed standard recovery experiments in actual samples for evaluating the practicality of this strategy and proved that the capability of the proposed approach for the determination of actin is feasible and the interference from complex biological samples is negligible. These results indicate that SDC/CuNCs are expected to play a more important role in the field of biosensors .

Direct hydroxylation of benzene to phenol is an effective and environment-friendly route to obtain phenol. Herein, Fe-doped and cupric acetylacetonate [Cu(acac)2]-grafted mesoporous silica (Cu/Fe-SBA-15) with highly dispersed metallic sites has been synthesized and used as a heterogeneous catalyst in the hydroxylation of benzene. The physiochemical properties of the synthesized materials as well as the reciprocity between iron and copper sites were analyzed by several characterization techniques including nitrogen adsorption–desorption, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In direct hydroxylation of benzene with H2O2 as the oxidant, the prepared Cu/Fe-SBA-15 material showed great catalytic activity. Moreover, the synergistic effect between doped Fe sites and grafted Cu sites was also investigated. In this catalyst, Fe and Cu species both played the role of active sites. Excessive activity of iron would lead to benzene peroxidation, while the presence of copper sites could effectively hinder benzene peroxidation.

Most metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are synthesized from carboxylate and metal precursors by hydrothermal process, which will consume a large amount of solvent and carboxylate. To address this issue, a new strategy for Cu-based MOFs was developed, in which the Cu-based MOFs was obtained by using abundant natural polymer (tannic acid) as one of the precursors and using high-energy ball milling to achieve a self-assembly of tannic acid and copper sulfate. Based on this strategy, a novel Cu-based MOFs derivative (Cu x O@C composite) was synthesized by high-temperature sintering of Cu-based MOFs and used for sulfamerazine (SMR) removal via O 2 activation. The BET specific surface area and average pore size of Cu x O@C composite were 110.34 m 2 g −1 and 21.06 nm, respectively, which made Cu x O@C composite had the maximum adsorption capacity ( Q max ) for SMR of 104.65 mg g −1 and favored the subsequent degradation of SMR. The results from XRD and XPS indicated that Cu x O@C composite contained a lot of Cu 0 and Cu 2 O with the sizes of 76.6 nm and 9.8 nm, respectively, which led to its high performance of O 2 activation. The removal efficiency of SMR and 90.2% TOC achieved 100% and 90.2%, respectively in the Cu x O@C/air system at initial pH of 4.0, air flow rate of 100 mL min −1 , Cu x O@C dosage of 1 g L −1 and reaction time of 30 min. Reactive species, including H 2 O 2 , OH and O 2 - radicals were detected in the Cu x O@C/air system, and OH and O 2 - were mainly responsible for the degradation of SMR.

High-efficient heat dissipation is essential to maintain the best performance of the electron devices . A new electron thermal conductive route is first proposed and constructed for the graphene metal matrix composites in this work. Functionalization of graphene with conjugated 4-ethynylaniline (FGr) and deposition of FGr and Cu 2+ ions onto the copper surface by pulsed-current co-electrodeposition are successively employed to prepare the FGr/Cu composite. The resulting thermal diffusivity of FGr/Cu is high as 1.444 cm 2 s −1 at 100 °C, which is corresponding to the thermal conductivity of 497 W m −1 K −1 and higher than the reported values via single phonon thermal conductive route. FGr/Cu can maintain a superior and stable thermal conductive property at high temperature with a multiple of 1.61 and 1.31 at 100 °C and 150 °C compared to the Cu, respectively. The delocalized conjugated π bond in the graphene/Cu interface is successfully established through the bridging of graphene and metal with conjugated organic molecule possessing p orbits, which leads to the construction of a new electron thermal conductive route. This innovation presents an entirely new direction to develop graphene-based metal matrix composite with high-efficient heat dissipation.

The design of high-performance compounded flame retardants based on multielement can be of great significance for reducing the flammability of polymer materials. In this article, a new type of N-P-Cu containing supermolecular assembly network (MPCSN) flame retardant was prepared and subsequently added into thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU)/silicon microencapsulated ammonium polyphosphate (SiAPP) composites. The obtained results indicated that a series of TPU/SiAPP/MPCSN composites exhibited strong adhesions with the TPU matrix. Additionally, the thermal and flame retardant performances of TPU composites were markedly improved after the introduction of different proportions of SiAPP to MPCSN. For example, the peak of heat release rate, the total heat release, the peak of smoke production rate, the total smoke release of the TPU composite containing 7.5 wt% SiAPP and 2.5 wt% MPCSN (TPU/SiAPP3/MPCSN1) remarkably decreased by 68.7%, 52.9%, 52.4%, and 49.4%, respectively, besides the highest LOI value (27.5 vol%) and UL-94 V-0 rating, compared with those of pure TPU. The improved flame retardance of the TPU/SiAPP3/MPCSN1 composite was due to the explanations: On one hand, a compact intumescent char effectively protected the TPU matrix from heat and oxygen and retarded the gaseous products permeation into the combustion zone; on the other hand, evolved phosphorus-containing free radicals captured the H• and HO• generated from the TPU material. The synergistic effect of SiAPP and MPCSN resulted in strong flame suppression, accompanied by 10.8% and 37.8% reductions in FIGRA and Av-EHC, respectively. This article offers a facile approach to fabricate highly effective flame-retardant TPU composites.

The effective separation of molybdenite from chalcopyrite is a challenging job. In this work, an environmental-friendly reagent pectin was investigated as a novel molybdenite depressant in the flotation separation of Cu-Mo sulfides. The micro-flotation results indicated that pectin selectively depressed molybdenite, and satisfactory separation results were achieved using sodium butyl xanthate (SBX) as collector even in the presence of kerosene. The addition sequence of pectin and kerosene influenced the depression of molybdenite significantly but hardly affected the flotation of chalcopyrite. The pre-adsorption of kerosene prior to pectin on molybdenite surface slightly attenuated the depression effect, while the pre-adsorption of pectin before kerosene moderately diminished the depression effect. Zeta potential , contact angle and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) suggested that pectin was adsorbed on molybdenite and chalcopyrite surface mainly through hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic attraction, respectively. SBX replaced the adsorbed pectin from chalcopyrite surface and restored its hydrophobicity . However, SBX hardly adsorbed on pectin treated molybdenite and molybdenite surface maintained hydrophilic.

A bimetallic catalytic membrane microreactor (CMMR) with bimetallic nanoparticles in membrane pores has been fabricated via flowing synthesis. The bimetallic nanoparticle is successfully immobilized in membrane pores along its thickness direction. Enhanced synergistic catalysis can be expected in this CMMR. As a concept-of-proof, Cu–Ag core–shell nanoparticles have been fabricated and immobilized in membrane pores for p-nitrophenol (p-NP) hydrogenation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for the characterization of the bimetallic core–shell nanostructure and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) for the characterization of the electron transfer behavior between Cu–Ag bimetal have been performed. The Ag shell on the core of Cu can improve the utilization of Ag atoms, and electron transfer between bimetallic components can promote the formation of high electron density active sites as well as active hydrogen with strong reducing properties on the Ag surface. The dispersed membrane pore can prevent nanoparticle aggregation, and the contact between the reaction fluid and catalyst is enhanced. The enhanced mass transfer can be achieved by the plug-flow mode during the process of hydrogenation catalysis. The p-NP conversion rate being over 95% can be obtained under the condition of a membrane flux of 1.59 mL·cm–2·min–1. This Cu–Ag/PES CMMR has good stability and has a potential application in industry.

In this study, magnetic Cu and Ni bimetallic particles embedded carbon sheets, namely as C@Cu–Ni, was derived via calcining a mixture of Cu-MOFs and Ni-MOFs (mass ratio = 4:6) under N 2 protection and served as a catalyst for the degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) by peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The results showed that more than 98.5% of 2,4,6-TCP (10 mg L −1 ) was rapidly decomposed at initial pH = 5, PMS = 1 mM and catalyst dosage = 0.1 g L −1 within 30 min, accompanied by 42.47% removal of total organic carbon (TOC). This fully confirmed that C@Cu–Ni possessed excellent catalytic performance for PMS activation . The radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigation testified that the reactive oxygen species (ROS) included SO 4 •− , • OH, O 2 •− radicals and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ), which were responsible for the rapid degradation of 2,4,6-TCP. Among them, O 2 •− and 1 O 2 played a decisive role. Cyclic voltammograms (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed that C@Cu–Ni material possessed superior electrical conductivity and electron transfer , improving its catalytic activity . What is more, C@Cu–Ni displayed excellent stability and could be consecutively used for five times without any decline of catalytic performance. The main intermediates of the 2,4,6-TCP degradation were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) and possible pathways of 2,4,6-TCP degradation were further proposed. The extraordinary stability and superior catalytic activity of C@Cu–Ni coupled with its easy separation from wastewater due to magnetism suggest that the newly synthesized material may offer a promising alternative approach to efficiently degrade organic pollutants by PMS.

Herein, a composite structure, consisting of Cu nanoparticles (NPs) deposited onto carbon nanotubes and modified with ferrocene-branched chitosan, was prepared in order to develop a nonenzymatic electrochemical glucose biosensor ferrocene-chitosan/carbon nanotube@ Cu (Fc-CHIT/CNT@Cu). The elemental composition of the carbon nanohybrids, morphology and structure were characterized by various techniques. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to study the interfacial properties of the electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry methods in alkaline solution were used to determine glucose biosensing properties. The synergy effect of Cu NPs and Fc on current responses of the developed electrode resulted in good glucose sensitivity, including broad linear detection between 0.2 mM and 22 mM, a low detection limit of 13.52 μM and sensitivity of 1.256 μA mM−1cm−2. Moreover, the modified electrode possessed long-term stability and good selectivity in the presence of ascorbic acid, dopamine and uric acid. The results indicated that this inexpensive electrode had potential application for non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose detection.Keywords:carbon nanotube;chitosan;copper nanoparticles;ferrocene;electrochemical sensor;glucose;non-enzymatic

In this study, a common refractory aquaculture hybrid wastewater containing copper and tetracycline (TC) was treated to simultaneously remove such pollutants through a formic-acid-assisted photocatalysis process with TiO2 as the photocatalyst. The results show that pure aqueous TC can be completely photodecomposed by TiO2, although the removal rate of pure Cu ions through photocatalysis without the addition of a scavenger can be neglected. For simultaneously photodegrading TC–Cu(II) hybrid wastewater, the TC degradation rate is accelerated, whereas the Cu(II) removal rate remains at 20% through adsorption. TC cannot promote the photoreduction of Cu(II) as a sacrificial agent, and its intermediate products form a stable complex with Cu(II), hindering further reduction. The addition of formic acid effectively releases Cu ions from the complex as a pH regulator and enhances the photocatalysis process as a hole scavenger. Through the addition of formic acid after complete TC photooxidation, the final chemical oxygen demand (COD) and Cu concentration were only 8 and 0.4 mg/L, respectively. This study provides a simple and promising method for simultaneously treating TC–Cu(II) hybrid wastewater using formic-acid-assisted TiO2 photocatalysis.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), as a refractory organic pollutant, seriously harms the environment and damages human health. Here, the electrocatalytic method was selected to degrade PFOA. In this work, perovskite catalysts doped with different elements, and corresponding gas diffusion electrodes (GDE) were prepared by the gel-sol method and citric acid complexation method. The crystal structure, microscopic morphology, and electrochemical properties of the LaNi x Y 1-x O 3 (Y = Fe, Cu, Co, Sr) perovskite catalyst electrode were analyzed by XRD, TEM, and CV. Moreover, the electrocatalytic performances of the as-prepared electrodes were assessed by the degradation of PFOA, and the Sr-doped GDE exhibited the highest degradation rate of PFOA. The optimum degradation conditions, such as the current density, pH, and initial concentration were also investigated. It was observed that when the current density was 20 mA/cm 2 , pH was 5, and initial concentration was 0.25 mmol/L, the Sr-doped GDE had the best degradation and defluorination efficiency of PFOA reached 90.0 % and 75.1 %, respectively. High performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) was used to analyze the intermediate products of PFOA degradation and obtain the degradation pathway. With the combined action of OH and O 2 , PFOA was degraded by stepwise removal of CF 2 groups, which were ultimately degraded into F − and CO 2 .

Developing efficient nonprecious electrocatalysts that can drive the oxygen electrode reactions in zinc-air batteries (ZABs) is important but remains challenging. In this work, novel materials comprising Mn/Cu nanoclusters-grafted N-doped carbon nanotubes are synthesized by preparing and then pyrolyzing Mn/Cu polyphthalocyanine-encapsulated carbon nanotubes (CNTs), followed by treating the products with acidic solution. The materials are named CNTs@(Mn,Cu)PPc-T, where T denotes the pyrolysis temperature in °C, and they are demonstrated to serve as efficient oxygen electrode catalysts for zinc-air batteries (ZABs). Among them, the one synthesized at 900 °C, CNTs@(Mn,Cu)PPc-900, requires more positive onset and half-wave potentials for reduction of oxygen and a low overpotential for the evolution of oxygen. A rechargeable ZAB assembled with CNTs@(Mn,Cu)PPc-900 electrocatalyst delivers a high power density (158.5 mW cm −2 ) and displays an excellent stability in 200 cycles of charge/discharge (in over 33 h). Such performance is even superior to that of a ZAB containing the benchmark Pt/C + RuO 2 catalyst as an air cathode under identical testing condition.
