In this work, a novel copper foil supported coral-like Cu micro-/nano-structure arrays with excellent non-enzymatic glucose sensing performance was successfully fabricated by a facile electrodeposition method. Field emission scanning electron microscopy was applied to characterize the morphology involution of the resulting materials. X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were employed to study the crystalline phase compositions and the surface elemental state of the electrode. The results demonstrated that the open coral-like Cu-based arrays extremely enlarged the surface area of the substrate, which plays an important role in enhancing the electrochemical glucose sensing performance. The sensor exhibited a high sensitivity up to 3826 μA mM −1 cm −2 , a wide linear range from 0.20 μM to 1.90 mM (R 2 = 0.9934), a low detection limit of 0.04 μM for glucose sensing. In addition, excellent selectivity and good stability were acquired owing to the robust open coral-like arrays. All these results demonstrate that the novel electrode can be a promising candidate choice for practical glucose sensing.

Solution-processed approach for the deposition of Cu 2 ZnSn (S,Se) 4 (CZTSSe) absorbing layer offers a route for fabricating thin film solar cell that is appealing because of simplified and low-cost manufacturing, large-area coverage, and better compatibility with flexible substrates. In this work, we present a simple solution-based approach for simultaneously dissolving the low-cost elemental Cu, Zn, Sn, S, and Se powder, forming a homogeneous CZTSSe precursor solution in a short time. Dense and compact kesterite CZTSSe thin film with high crystallinity and uniform composition was obtained by selenizing the low-temperature annealed spin-coated precursor film. Standard CZTSSe thin film solar cell based on the selenized CZTSSe thin film was fabricated and an efficiency of 6.4 % was achieved.

Single electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET-LRP) was employed to prepare thermal-sensitive starch graft poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (Starch-g-PNIPAM) with soluble Starch-Br as macro-initiator at molecular level. And Starch-g-PNIAPM with improved graft ratio and controlled length of graft chains were obtained. The effects of molar ratio of monomer to initiator and temperature on polymerization were investigated. The thermal responsibilities investigated by 1H NMR and UV showed that the LCST ranged from 31.5 °C to 23 °C with the increase of the length of PNIPAM chains and the concentrations of copolymers. Starch-g-PNIPAM hydrogels were gained when adding N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide as crosslinking agent and the swelling and deswelling behaviors were also investigated. The obtained hydrogels possess a high equilibrium swelling ratio as high as 1826%, and an extremely rapid shrinking rate as fast as losing more than 85% of water in 5 min.

Solution deposition approaches play an important role in reducing the manufacturing cost of Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) thin film solar cells. Here, we present a novel precursor-based solution approach to fabricate highly efficient CZTSe solar cells. In this approach, low-cost elemental Cu, Zn, Sn, and Se powders were simultaneously dissolved in the solution of thioglycolic acid and ethanolamine, forming a homogeneous CZTSe precursor solution to deposit CZTSe nanocrystal thin films. Based on high-quality CZTSe absorber layer, pure selenide CZTSe solar cell with a photoelectric conversion efficiency of 8.02% has been achieved without antireflection coating.

Biological macroinitiator for single electron transfer-living radical polymerization was designed from extracted human hair keratin by nucleophilic reaction of amino group with 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide. Homogeneous polymer–protein hybrid oil–absorbing gel was synthesized by copolymerization of acrylate with a small amount of cross-linker using keratin-Br macroinitiator. The variation of gelation properties including gelation time, gel fraction and oil absorbency was studied by changing monomer composition , initiator type, and cross-linker structure. The gelation time did not change significantly by varying the substitution degree of macroinitiator. Aromatic cross-linker was more prone to form microgel and higher oil absorbency was achievable with longer oleophilic chain of acrylate. The polymer–protein was obtained with the maximum oil absorption of chloroform reaching 43.7 g g −1 and performed good reusability.

In this paper, Cd(OH)2 1D three-side nanobelt architectures have been fabricated through a facile two-phase reaction system. Considering their electropositive character proven by zeta potential measurement, the as-obtained Cd(OH)2 nanomaterials have been applied to capture negatively charged DNA. On the basis of the above results, the Cd(OH)2 nanomaterials have been employed for trapping negatively charged double-stranded DNA molecules (salmon sperm DNA). Assisted by the detailed observation of their DNA interaction results as well as through UV–vis spectroscopy, infrared imaging automatic target recognition (IRATR) and inductive coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES) measurements, it has been clearly shown that this 1D nanoarchitecture can effectively trap and release DNA molecules without use of any other organic reagents. In addition, a miniaturized electrochemical DNA-releasing device based on the Cd(OH)2 1D three-side nanobelt architectures has been fabricated. Using this device, it is possible to recycle the Cd(OH)2 nanostructures. In addition, the Cd(OH)2 nanomaterials maintain their nanostructures, and no Cd2+ ions were released in repeated DNA separation and transfer processes, which demonstrate their practicality for DNA trapping.

Polychlorinated diphenyl ethers (PCDEs) are a group of halogenated aromatic compounds and serious environmental pollutants. In the present study, sediment and water samples from eight sites in Nanjing section of the Yangtze River were characterized with 15 congeners of PCDEs. Concentrations and distributions of these PCDEs in water phase and sediments were analyzed by GC/MS. Results demonstrated that ∑PCDE concentrations were higher in the low water period (1.15–1.80 μg/L) than those in the high water period (0.73–1.30 μg/L) in water phase. Moreover, ∑PCDE concentrations were higher in the low water period (1.58–3.98 μg/kg) than those in the high water period (1.24–3.48 μg/kg) in sediments. A significant linear relationship existed between the ∑PCDE concentrations and TOC contents in sediments, but a poor linearity was found between ∑PCDE concentrations and DOC contents in water phase. Furthermore, the comparison of the percentage compositions in sediments and in water phase showed that CDE-30 (2,4,6-tri-CDE) was the predominant congener in the studied sites, and higher chlorinated congeners accounted for a larger proportion in sediments than those in water phase. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated the prevalent contamination by PCDEs in sediments and water from the Nanjing section of the Yangtze River.

To obtain high photovoltaic performances for the emerging copper zinc tin sulfide/selenide (CZTSSe) thin film solar cells, much effort has deservedly been placed on CZTSSe phase purification and CZTSSe grain size enhancement. Another highly crucial but less explored factor for device performance is the elemental constitution of CZTSSe surface, which is at the heart of p-n junction where major photogenerated carriers generate and separate. In this work we demonstrate that, despite the well-built phase and large grained films are observed by common phases and morphology characterization (XRD, Raman and SEM), prominent device efficiency variations from short circuited to 6.4% are obtained. Insight study highlights that the surface (0–250 nm) compositions variation results in different bulk defect depths and doping densities in the depletion zone. We propose that suitable sulfurization (at ~10 kPa sulfur pressure) drives optimization of surface constitution by managing the Cu, Zn and Sn diffusion and surface reaction. Therefore, our study reveals that the balance of elemental diffusion and interface reactions is the key to tuning the surface quality CZTSSe film and thus the performance of as resulted devices.

The un-doped Mg 11 B 2 and Cu-doped Mg 11 B 2 bulks using 11 B as a boron precursor were fabricated by solid-state reaction and sintered at different temperature in present work. By analyzing the sintering process, it was found that 11 B original powder is more reactive and can react with Mg severely even at low temperature before Mg melting, which leads to the formation of refined Mg 11 B 2 grains. Consequently, the critical current density of Mg 11 B 2 sample prepared in this work is higher than that of natural MgB 2 . Furthermore, it was found that proper Cu addition could obviously accelerate the reaction between Mg and 11 B and promote the formation of Mg 11 B 2 due to the appearance of Mg–Cu liquid at low sintering temperature before Mg melting. On the other hand, Cu addition also introduced more MgCu 2 impurity, leading to a relatively lower critical current density on the whole. Interestingly, the critical current density of the Cu doped sample sintered at 800 °C is surprisingly enhanced at the low field, compared with that of the corresponding un-doped one. This is due to the peritectic reaction which generated small-sized MgCu 2 occurred that at 800 °C, providing MgCu 2 pinning centers well-distributed in the MgB 2 matrix.

Sediment and water samples collected from 8 sites of the Yangtze River in Nanjing section were characterized with 31 congeners of polychlorodibenzothiophenes (PCDTs). Concentrations and percentage compositions of these PCDTs in water and sediments were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Results showed that ∑PCDT concentrations in sediments were higher (0.86–1.75 μg/kg) than those in water (0.56–1.30 μg/L). A linear relationship existed between ∑PCDT concentrations and total organic carbon content in sediments, whereas there was a poor linearity between ∑PCDTs concentrations and dissolved organic carbon content in water phase. Moreover, percentage compositions showed that penta-chlorinated DTs were the predominant congeners both in sediments and water. Differences existed in the percentage compositions between water and sediments. Highly chlorinated DTs accounted for a larger proportion in sediments than those in water. In conclusion, the present study showed the prevalent contamination by PCDTs in sediments and water from the Nanjing section of the Yangtze River.

Abstract Peanut shell (PNS) was used to prepare a novel adsorbent to achieve resource recovery of the agricultural residue. The hydroxyl groups of peanut shell were turned into –C(CH 3 ) 2 –Br pendant groups to initiate polymerization of acrylonitrile. Graft copolymer peanut shell/polyacrylonitrile (PNS- g -PAN) was modified by hydroxylamine hydrochloride to transform the cyano groups into amidoxime (AO) groups. The modified copolymer of AO-PNS- g -PAN was used as adsorbent. The maximum adsorption capacity for Hg(II) was 4.45 mmol g −1 . The adsorption process fitted well the Freundlich isotherm model and followed pseudo-second-order model. The modified copolymer demonstrated its potential as an efficient adsorbent to solve the problem of Hg(II) contamination. Graphical abstract The peanut shell (PNS) macroinitiator was obtained by acylation of hydroxyl groups on the cellulose backbone of the peanut shell and initiated by Cu(0)-mediated RDRP of acrylonitrile. PNS- g -PAN was modified by NH 2 OH·HCl and used to remove heavy metal ions. The maximum adsorption capacity of Hg(II) was 4.45 mmol g −1 .
