Bisphenol S (BPS), a new bisphenol analog, is considered to be a potential replacement for bisphenol A (BPA), which has gained concern because of its potentially adverse health impacts. Therefore, studies are needed to investigate the environmental fate and risks of this compound. In this study, the adsorption of BPS and four structural analogs on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and graphite (GP) were investigated. When solid-phase concentrations were normalized by the surface areas, oxygen-containing functional groups on the absorbents showed a positive impact on phenol sorption but inhibited the sorption of chemicals with two benzene rings. Among BPS analogs, diphenyl sulfone showed the lowest sorption when hydrophobic effects were ruled out. Chemicals with a butterfly structure, formed between the two benzene rings, showed consistently high sorption on MWCNTs, independent of the substituted electron-donating or accepting functional groups. This study emphasizes the importance of chemical conformation on organic, contaminant sorption on engineered, carbonaceous materials.

The advancement of highly effective heterojunction photocatalysts with improved charge separation and transfer has become a crucial scientific perspective for utilizing solar energy. In this study, we developed the S-scheme heterostructure by depositing N-doped CeO 2-δ (NC) nanoparticles onto two-dimensional ZnIn 2 S 4 (ZIS) nanosheets via hydrolysis strategy for significantly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction. The optimal H 2 generation rate of ∼ 798 μmol g –1 h –1 was achieved for NC-3@ZIS under solar light irradiation, which is about 18 and 2 times higher than those of pristine CeO 2 (∼44 μmol g –1 h –1 ) and ZIS (∼358 μmol g –1 h –1 ), respectively. The photogenerated electrons from NC interact with the photogenerated holes of ZIS driven by an internal electric field, confirmed by In-situ KPFM, DFT calculation, and XPS results. According to EPR and photoelectrochemical measurements, NC-3@ZIS composite shows dramatically high separation efficiency of photogenerated charge carriers. This study provides a new approach for developing non-noble metal S-scheme heterojunctions with enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Combining the advantages of inorganic semiconductor and organic semiconductor is an effective way to construct heterojunction to improve the photocatalytic activity of materials. In this work, two covalent triazine framework (COFs-Ph)-based heterojunctions, which named hollow COFs-Ph@CdS and solid COFs-Ph@CdS, were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method . And they were developed for the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution and efficient degradation for tetracycline (TC), 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), rhodamine B (RhB) under sunlight irradiation for the first time. Compared with solid COFs-Ph@CdS, hollow COFs-Ph@CdS catalysts exhibited a significantly enhanced activity for the photodegradation of various pollutants and photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Under the simulated sunlight, the degradation rate of TC, 2,4-DCP, RhB by hollow COFs-Ph@CdS-3 was 87.2 %, 95.4 %, 82.6 %, respectively. The hydrogen production rate of hollow COFs-Ph@CdS-4 was 726 μmol·h −1 ·g −1 . Based on the experimental results, it found that the interactions between CdS nanospheres and COFs-Ph could enhance the sunlight harvesting and created a new pathway to extend the service life of photogenerated charge carriers via facilitating the electron transfer through the loaded CdS nanospheres. Furthermore, the results verified that the matched band structure between COFs-Ph and hollow CdS could induce a superfast S-scheme interfacial charge transfer path. Therefore, a reasonable S-scheme charge transfer mechanism was proposed based on the active species trapping experiments and the results of electron spin resonance (ESR). More importantly, hollow COFs-Ph@CdS-3 possessed a good stability and reusability after recycling five times, that showed application prospect for solar-to-chemical energy conversion.

Construction of S-scheme heterojunction with 2D/2D structure can accelerate the carrier separation and migration owing to the induced built-in electric field, short carrier migration distance and large contact area. Herein, we develop a simple one-step solvent thermal method for the synthesis of novel Bi 2 O 3 -BiOI 2D/2D S-scheme heterojunction with intimate interfacial contact. As expected, the as-prepared Bi 2 O 3 -BiOI heterojunction presents higher visible-light driven photodegradation of tetracycline (TC), as well as rhodamine B (RhB), methyl orange (MO), and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl), than the counterparts. Besides, the potential degradation pathways of TC are elucidated and the toxicities of intermediates are assessed in detail. Significantly, the mechanism insight into S-scheme charge transfer mechanism in Bi 2 O 3 -BiOI 2D/2D heterojunction is uncovered in depth by density functional theory calculations and a series of experimental evidences. This work affords a useful inspiration on constructing high-performance BiOI-based photocatalysts via engineering of heterojunction and morphology for organic hazards removal.

The development of excellent performance catalysts for the hydrodeoxygenation of renewable biomass into value-added chemicals is essential but remains extremely challenging. Herein, a series of novel metal-free carbo-catalyst catalysts through one-step-pyrolysis strategy were fabricated for the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin-derived vanillin (VAN) to produce 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol (MMP). It has been demonstrated that 81.32 % VAN conversion could be acquired with a high selectivity of 77.30 % of MMP under the condition of 240 °C, 1 MPa H 2 and 4 h with the assistance of the optimized NSCC-800-7 catalyst. After characterization of the catalyst and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the outstanding catalytic activity is attributed to the synergistic effect between nitrogen and sulfur dopants, which effectively regulates the number of active sites. N-S vacancy (NSVs) in the N-doped carbon catalysts is found to play an active site for the VAN HDO reaction, which is greatly beneficial to activating hydrogen molecules. Meanwhile, sulfur doping can promote the formation of defect sites and high specific surface area, while enabling to stabilization of NSVs. Additionally, isopropanol was both the reaction medium and the secondary hydrogen donor, which contributed to reducing the external hydrogen supplication. This finding can open broad opportunities for the rational design of novel metal-free catalysts for challenging chemical reactions.

FeCo-LDH/g-C 3 N 4 S-type heterojunction photocatalysts were successfully prepared by thermal polymerization and electrostatic self-assembly methods. The structure, morphology, light absorption and photoelectrochemical properties of the prepared samples were characterized. The photocatalytic properties of the photocatalysts were evaluated by the degradation of tetracycline (TC) and photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water splitting under visible light irradiation. The experimental results showed that the photocatalytic properties of FeCo-LDH/g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposites were superior to those of pristine g-C 3 N 4 . In addition, when the mass ratio of FeCo-LDH to g-C 3 N 4 was 7:100, the photocatalytic performance of the as-prepared FeCo-LDH(7 %)/g-C 3 N 4 is the optimal. The TC degradation rate of FeCo-LDH(7 %)/g-C 3 N 4 reached 78.0 % within 120 min, which was 2.63 times of that of pure g-C 3 N 4 . And the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution of FeCo-LDH(7 %)/g-C 3 N 4 was 107.28 μmol for 4 h, which was 12.68 times that of g-C 3 N 4 . The results showed that the as-prepared FeCo-LDH/g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposite photocatalysts have excellent performance in the degradation of TC and the photocatalytic H 2 evolution. Meanwhile, the EPR and trapping experiments revealed that OH and O 2 − played a main role in the photocatalytic TC degradation. The mechanism of photocatalytic TC degradation and hydrogen production of FeCo-LDH/g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposite photocatalysts was also discussed.

Elemetal doping is an efficient strategy to adjust the microstructue and electronic property of a carbon material, as a result, shows great potential in the design of novel electromagnetic absorption (EMA) materials. In this work, we report an useful strategy to prepare a N,S co-doped carbon (NSC) using TTF-TCNQ as the precusor, and systematically explore its frequency-depedent dielectric and EMA properties. Different N/S ratios can be tuned by the regulation of pyrolitic temperature. The derived NSC exhibits wonderful EMA performance when the pyrolytic temperature is setted to 700 ℃ with loading ratio of 35 wt%. Efficient absorption can be achieved in the frequency range of 6.4–18 GHz. Moreover, it is determined that the efficient absorption bandwidth gets to 6.5 GHz, while the maximal absorption reaches −46 dB. The EMA mechanism of NSC is considered to be mainly contributed by improved impedance matching realized by macropores, enhanced conductance loss caused by well constructed condutive network, and polarization by N,S doping. This research provides a new idea for development of novel carbon materials for EMA applicaion.

Developing semiconductor-based photocatalytic systems with wide spectral response and effective charge separation is critical to rapidly and efficiently remove antibiotics residues in water. Herein, S-scheme BiOCl/CdS nanocomposites have been successfully designed and synthesized by decorating CdS nanoparticles on the two-dimensional BiOCl nanosheets through a simple hydrothermal method. The composition, microstructure and optical properties of the prepared samples were thoroughly investigated. Tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) was used as the model pollutant to estimate the photocatalytic properties of BiOCl/CdS catalysts. All the obtained BiOCl/CdS nanocomposites showed enhanced photocatalytic removal of TC-HCl. Especially, the optimal sample showed the highest photodegradation rate, which was 2.94 and 4.73 times that of bare CdS and BiOCl, respectively. The improved degradation of TC-HCl for BiOCl/CdS photocatalysts was ascribed to the increased light absorption as well as the boosted separation and transfer of carriers. Based on the results of active group capture experiment, transient photocurrent, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and band structure, the S-scheme charge transfer mechanism for TC-HCl degradation in this BiOCl/CdS photocatalytic system was also discussed.

S@pPAN has become promising cathode materials in rechargeable batteries due to its high compressed density, low E/S ratio, no polysulfide dissolution, no self-discharge, and stable cycling. However, it is a big challenge to enhance its sulfur content which determines its practical specific capacity. Herein, we prepare crosslinked PAN as precursor, leading to effective enhancement of sulfur content up to 55 wt% and a reversible specific capacity of 838 mAh g -1 composites at 0.2C. Because of the microporous structure and high specific area, crosslinked PAN provides more space to accommodate sulfur molecule and improve the interfacial reaction of S@pPAN as well. This work provides a promising direction to design S@pPAN for lithium sulfur batteries with high energy density.

BACKGROUND S -metolachlor (MET) was used to prevent weed infestation in sorghum fields, but inappropriate application could result in phytotoxicity on sorghum. Exogenous gibberellin A 3 (GA 3 ) has been applied for alleviating the phytotoxicity of MET. However, its detoxification mechanism is still not well known. RESULTS Leaf deformity of sorghum caused by 200 mg/L MET was alleviated by treating sorghum shoots with 800 mg/L GA 3 , and the injury recovery rate of growth index was over 73%. More importantly, GA 3 could not accelerate the metabolic rate of MET in sorghum. The result of phytohormone metabolomics showed that endogenous GA 3 content in sorghum decreased by 78.10% with MET treatment, while abscisic acid (ABA) content increased by 120.2%, resulting in 10.3-fold increase of ABA/GA 3 ratio. Content of ABA and GA 3 increased by 11.9- and 21.1-fold with MET and GA 3 treatment, respectively, leading to ABA/GA 3 ratio restoration. Moreover, MET inhibited the expression of genes encoding key enzymes related to GA synthesis including CPS1 , KO2 , KAO , GA20ox1D and ABA8ox gene related to ABA metabolism. The transcription levels of GA metabolism-related genes CYP714D1 and GA2ox were up-regulated by 11.2- and 7.2-fold, while ABA synthesis-related genes NCED and ZEP were up-regulated by 8.0- and 3.0-fold, respectively, with MET and GA 3 treatment. Conclusion In this study, exogenous GA 3 protecting sorghum shoots from MET phytotoxicity was due to supplement the MET-induced GA 3 deficiency by absorbing exogenous GA 3 , and restore homeostasis of ABA and GA 3 by promoting ABA synthesis, which provides novel insights for mechanism of GA 3 alleviating MET phytotoxicity. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Interactions of bisphenol S, a new bisphenol analogue with bovine serum albumin and calf thymus DNA were investigated using different spectroscopic methods and molecular modeling calculation. According to the analysis of experimental and theoretical data, we concluded that hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding primarily mediated the binding processes of bisphenol S with bovine serum albumin and DNA. In addition, the electrostatic force should not be excluded. Molecular modeling studies indicated that the binding site of bisphenol S to bovine serum albumin located in the subdomain IB, while bisphenol S was a groove binder of DNA. In addition, BPS did not obviously induce second structural changes of bovine serum albumin, but it induced a conformational change of calf thymus DNA.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are traditional porous materials considered as efficient and low-cost for the removal of organic dyes from polluted water. In this study, we report a new type of hierarchical porous zeolitic imidazole frameworks −67@ layered double hydroxide (ZIF-67@LDH) consisting of nanocubes decorated with nanosheets . The prepared ZIF-67@LDH contains versatile functionalities which exhibit superior adsorption efficiency and adsorption rate for Methyl Orange (MO) and Alizarine Red S (ARS). The influence of pH, temperature, and contact time were analyzed in detail. The kinetics study revealed that the adsorption of MO and ARS over ZIF-67@LDH followed pseudo-second order (PSO) kinetic model , and adsorption isotherms were best described by the Langmuir isotherm model. Adsorption isotherms confirm the monolayer adsorption of MO and ARS over ZIF-67@LDH. The prepared material also shows outstanding recyclability with negligible loss. Thus ZIF-67@LDH presented a promising candidate for treating MO and ARS containing wastewater.
