A number of M-Cu-ZSM-5 (M = La, Ni, La-Ni) samples were prepared via an aqueous solution ion-exchange method. The co-doping with Ni and La into a Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst enhanced the NO decomposition activity in a temperature range 350–550 °C. The characterization results indicate that doping with La effectively improved the dispersion of the Cu species forming more Cu 2+ ions in the sample, while the effect of Ni is likely to facilitate the implantation of Cu 2+ to form (Cu 2+ -O 2– -Cu 2+ ) 2+ dimers. The synergistic effect of La and Ni contributes to the increased (Cu 2+ -O 2− -Cu 2+ ) 2+ content in the co-doped sample, thus enhancing the NO decomposition activity.

Cu(OH) 2 nanowires were prepared and incorporated into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) to fabricate Cu(OH) 2 -PVDF ultrafiltration (UF) membrane via immersion precipitation phase inversion process. The effect of Cu(OH) 2 nanowires on the morphology of membranes was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. The results showed that all the Cu(OH) 2 -PVDF membranes had wider fingerlike pore structure and better hydrophilicity, smoother surface than pristine PVDF membrane due to the incorporation of Cu(OH) 2 nanowires. In addition, water flux and bovine serum albumin (BSA) rejection were also measured to investigate the filtration performance of membranes. The results indicated that all the Cu(OH) 2 -PVDF membranes had high water flux, outstanding BSA rejection and excellent antifouling properties. It is worth mentioning that the optimized performance could be obtained when the Cu(OH) 2 nanowires content reached 1.2 wt%. Furthermore, the membrane with 1.2 wt% Cu(OH) 2 nanowires showed outstanding oil-water emulsion separation capability.

Copper indium sulfide (CIS) quantum dots (QDs) are attractive as potential optoelectronic devices, since they have large absorption coefficients across a broad spectral range, size- and composition-tunable photoluminescence from the visible to the near-infrared, and low toxicity. However, CIS QDs should be hydrophilic in certain applications. In this present work, hydrophilic CIS and CIS/ZnS colloidal QDs were synthesized by a one-pot environmentally-friendly route employing N , N -dimethylformamide (DMF) as the solvent and in situ generated H 2 S as the sulphur precursor. The effect of stoichiometry was investigated by varying the feeding molar ratios of Cu/In, which did not affect the crystalline structure of the CIS colloidal QDs, while the optical property was influenced significantly. With the decrease of the feeding molar ratios of Cu/In, the band gap of the resulting CIS colloidal QDs had blue-shifts and relative photoluminescence quantum yield of the corresponding CIS/ZnS colloidal QDs increased monotonically.

Cu(II) doped mesoporous MnO 2 (Cu-MnO 2 ) was prepared to establish an intimate functional link between the structure substitution and catalytic peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. Based on the characterization of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N 2 adsorption-desorption measurement, scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), Cu-MnO 2 had a typical long range ordered mesoporous structure and Cu was successfully introduced in octahedral framework. It exhibited excellent catalytic activity and stability for the phenol degradation by PMS. Phenol was always efficiently degraded over Cu-MnO 2 at a pH range of 3.5–9.0. For example, the reaction rate constant at pH 7.0 was 0.073 min −1 , which was two times higher than that of MnO 2 (0.039 min −1 ). Importantly, 1 O 2 was identified as the primary reactive species in Cu-MnO 2 /PMS system. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed that more exposed surface oxygen defects due to Cu doping were responsible to the enhancement of PMS activation for phenol degradation. The results of PMS decomposition and oxygen evolution indicated that surface oxygen defects lower the reaction energy barrier of PMS decomposition by generating 1 O 2 via the energy trapping by oxygen. Finally, the heterogeneous PMS activation mechanism over Cu-MnO 2 was proposed.

Multimetallic nanomaterials have aroused special attention owing to the unique characteristics of chemical, optical and enhanced enzyme mimetic capabilities resulting from the synergistic effect of different metal elements. In this work, we present a facile, gentle, fast and one-pot method for preparing Cu/Au/Pt trimetallic nanoparticles (TNPs), which possess intrinsic and enhanced peroxidase-like activity as well as excellent stability, sustainable catalytic activity, and robustness to harsh environments. Kinetic analysis indicated that Cu/Au/Pt TNPs exhibited strong affinities with H2O2 and 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as the substrates. To investigate the feasibility of Cu/Au/Pt TNPs-based strategy in biological analysis, H2O2 was chosen as a model analyte and a sensitive and specific detection for H2O2 was acquired with a detection limit of 17 nM. By coupling with glucose oxidase (GOD), this assay could also achieve a sensitive and selective detection of glucose with a detection limit of 33 μM, indicating the versatility of the method. In view of the potential combination with diverse enzyme-related reactions, the Cu/Au/Pt TNPs-based strategy is promising as a universal platform for biosensors.

Copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) were uniformly deposited on a nickel foam substrate (Cu NPs@NiF electrode) rapidly by one-step electrochemical deposition in the aqueous solution of copper sulfate, which can be successfully applied to catalyze glucose oxidation, and act as a non-enzymatic glucose sensor. The specific structure and morphology of Cu NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electro-oxidation of glucose on Cu NPs@NiF catalytic oxidation of process was proved by cyclic voltammetry (CV). It is found that Cu NPs show remarkable catalytic activity to glucose, involving in multistep catalytic of Cu NPs, in which the transform from Cu (II) into Cu (III) is the key to success. The performances of electrode sensitivity were investigated by CV and chronoamperometry methods in alkaline conditions. It is found that the developed sensor had excellent glucose sensing performances, including two-section broad linear detection ranges (0.002–0.650 mM and 0.65–6.00 mM), high corresponding sensitivity (2679 μA cm −2 mM −1 and 1122 μA cm −2 mM −1 ), fast response time (<3 s) and a low detection limit (0.5 μM, S/N = 3). In short, the Cu NPs@NiF electrode developed by low-cost, efficient and simple preparation method is expected to be used for the development of non-enzymatic glucose sensors.

Copper matrix composites reinforced with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were fabricated via charge adsorption process, thermal reduction, and hot-press sintering process. We investigated the effect of rGO on the thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the composites. By controlling the reaction process, copper on the rGO surface was oxidized to form Cu 2 O. The presence of Cu 2 O at the interface enhanced interfacial bonding strength and reduced the interfacial thermal resistance, thus improving the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties. This enhancement occurred at low rGO contents. By contrast, excessive amounts led to rGO agglomeration and a degradation of the performance. At the optimum rGO content of 0.6 wt.%, the composites had a 10% increase in thermal conductivity and a 46% increase in yield strength ( σ 0.2 ), while maintaining high electrical conductivity.

The synergetic effect of alloy and morphology of nanocatalysts play critical roles towards ethanol electrooxidation. In this work, we developed a novel electrocatalyst fabricated by one-pot synthesis of hierarchical flower-like palladium (Pd)-copper (Cu) alloy nanocatalysts supported on reduced graphene oxide (Pd-Cu (F) /RGO) for direct ethanol fuel cells. The structures of the catalysts were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). The as-synthesized Pd-Cu (F) /RGO nanocatalyst was found to exhibit higher electrocatalytic performances towards ethanol electrooxidation reaction in alkaline medium in contrast with RGO-supported Pd nanocatalyst and commercial Pd black catalyst in alkaline electrolyte, which could be attributed to the formation of alloy and the morphology of nanoparticles. The high performance of nanocatalyst reveals the great potential of the structure design of the supporting materials for the future fabrication of nanocatalysts.

Low-dimensional organic–inorganic hybrid lead halide perovskites have attracted much interest in solid-state lighting and displays, but the toxicity and instability of lead halide are obstacles to their industrial applications, which must be overcome. As an alternative, Cu(I)-based hybrid metal halides have emerged as a new type of luminescent material owing to their diversified structure, adjustable luminescence, low toxicity and low cost. Herein, we report three one-dimensional (1D) hybrid Cu(I)-based halides with the general formula ACu2Br4 (A = [(Me)4-Pipz]2+ and [BuDA]2+ and [TMEDA]2+). These 1D hybrid Cu(I) halides display stable broadband blue emission with maximum emission peaks in the range of 445–474 nm and the highest photoluminescence quantum yield of 37.8%. Furthermore, in-depth experimental and theoretical investigations revealed that the broadband blue emissions originate from the radiative recombination of self-trapped excitons. Most importantly, there is no structural degradation and attenuation of emission intensity even after continuously soaking these halides in water for at least two months, demonstrating their ultra-high anti-water stability. Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that a large number of weak hydrogen bonds can protect the inorganic skeleton from degradation due to water. This work provides a new strategy for the design of water-stable Cu(I)-based halides with efficient blue emission and wide potential applications in humid environments.

To advance the utilization of high-concentration CO2 produced in biogas upgrading, it is essential to remove associated hydrogen sulfide (H2S). This study presents a series of bimetallic Fe–Cu oxides supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), which were synthesized to efficiently remove H2S from CO2-rich gas at low temperatures. The synergy of the bimetallic elements not only forms a multifaceted active phase but also causes new defects on the MWCNTs, creating more H2S/CO2 separation sites. The adsorption experiments demonstrate that the deep H2S removal performance of the adsorbent is unaffected by the CO2 concentration, achieving a maximum adsorption capacity of 30.11 mg g−1, which exceeds that of commercial desulfurizers and previously reported adsorbents. Additionally, density functional theory calculations were employed to elucidate that the introduction of Cu species increases the gap in the average adsorption energies between H2S and CO2. The adsorbent also exhibited stability after 4-cycle regeneration at room temperature, maintaining 62.6% of its initial H2S capacity. This work underscores the potential of Fe–Cu oxide/MWCNTs adsorbents as a viable, regenerable solution for H2S removal in CO2 purification, offering implications for carbon-negative construction.

Until now, there have been many reports on the regulation of inorganic metal ions on the catalytic activity of nanozymes, but few reports on the regulation of anions (such as NO 2 − ) on enzyme activity. In this work, a copper-molybdenum doped carbon dots (Cu, Mo-CDs) with peroxidase-like (POD) activity was synthesized by simple one-step microwave digestion method. The Cu, Mo-CDs + NO 2 − system can promote 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidizing to blue oxidative product (oxTMB) due to the formation of ∙NO 2 free radical. While Hg 2+ was introduced into the system, the POD-like activity of Cu, Mo-CDs + NO 2 − system was inhibited due to the strong interaction and the electron transfer between Cu, Mo-CDs and Hg 2+ . The formation of ∙NO 2 and the electron transfer capability of Cu, Mo-CDs + Hg 2+ were confirmed through ESR spectra and FMN experiments. The bioenzyme-free colorimetric assay based on Cu, Mo-CDs nanozyme is used for detection of NO 2 − and Hg 2+ , showing lower detection limit (LOD) of 1.63 µg/L for NO 2 − , 0.13 µg/L for Hg 2+ , respectively and good recovery from 90.79 to 108.90%. The work paves a new way to design a nanozyme-based colorimetric protocol for traces NO 2 − and Hg 2+ residues in food analysis.

A highly sensitive non-enzymatic glucose electrode based on truncated octahedral CuO-modified Cu 2 O@Cu composite was fabricated by a simple hydrothermal method combined with a two-step liquid-phase reduction process. Research on utilizing nanostructures to increase the contact opportunities between electroactive materials and target analytes, thereby enhancing electrocatalytic activity, is currently insufficient. In this study, we employed a reduction method to create a core–shell structure with copper shells encapsulating internal nanomaterials. This structure was designed to provide more active sites for glucose molecules, thereby enhancing the electrocatalytic response current of glucose. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the morphology and components of the products obtained from each step, while the CuO/Cu 2 O@Cu ternary composites were specifically analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). For glucose detection, CuO/Cu 2 O@Cu composite was modified onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) as a working electrode for electrochemical performance testing. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) test results indicate that the CuO/Cu 2 O@Cu-GCE electrode exhibits a sensitivity of 771 μA cm −2 mM −1 within the glucose concentration range of 0 to 10 mM, with a detection limit of 3.39 μM. Chronoamperometry (CA) results demonstrate that the electrode achieves a sensitivity of 1067 μA cm −2 mM −1 in the glucose concentration range of 0 to 1 mM, with a detection limit of 0.56 μM. Exhibiting a broad linear response range, high sensitivity, minimal detection limit, and robust selectivity against common interferents, the electrode maintained 99 % stability over four days and retained more than 85 % of its current response for two weeks, also showing notable sensitivity in artificial sweat samples. Owing to its simple fabrication, cost-effectiveness, and outstanding electrochemical properties, the CuO/Cu 2 O@Cu composite offers significant potential for application in non-enzymatic glucose sensing.
