Dual threats of over-film (degradation) and under-film filiform corrosion (FFC) pose a significant challenge to the reliable application of Zn-Al-Mg coated steel (ZAM-steel), necessitating the development of effective protection strategies. This study introduces a novel MRS@GO nanohybrid, integrated within epoxy (EP) coatings, to enhance the corrosion resistance of ZAM-steel in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. The hierarchical structure of MRS@GO synergistically combines the barrier properties of an insulating material (MRS) with the electrochemical benefits of a conducting material (GO), providing superior protection. This dual functionality significantly improves the overall performance and durability of ZAM-steel, making it a promising candidate as the decorative coating for the automotive industry.

The intermetallic PtBi/MgO/Mg monolithic catalyst was first prepared using non-equilibrium plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) technology. Spherical aberration-corrected transmission electron microscope (ACTEM) observation confirms the successful synthesis of the PtBi intermetallic structure. The efficiency of PtBi/Mg/MgO catalysts in catalyzing the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) in the presence of NaBH4was demonstrated. The activity factor for the catalyst is 31.8 s−1g−1, which is much higher than reported values. In addition, the resultant catalyst also exhibits excellent catalytic activity in the organic pollutant reaction of p-nitrobenzoic acid (p-NBA) and methyl orange (MO). Moreover, benefiting from ordered atomic structures and the half-embedded PtBi nanoparticles (NPs), the catalyst demonstrates excellent stability and reproducibility in the degradation of 4-NP. This study provides an example of a simple method for the preparation of intermetallic structures as catalysts for organic pollutant degradation.

The design of environmentally friendly flame retardants to achieve the balanced flame retardancy and mechanical properties of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) is a critical challenge. Herein, inspired by the micropapillae adorned with hydrophobic wax crystals structure of lotus leaf, Mg(OH) 2 /Co-MOF/DOPO hybrids (MH@MOF- g -DOPO) were successfully constructed through in-situ growth of Co-MOF and chemical grafting of DOPO. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed that the Co-MOF content in MH@MOF was approximately 27.3 wt%, while the grafted DOPO in MH@MOF- g -DOPO was about 19.5 wt%. Owing to the unique microstructure, the water contact angle of MH@MOF- g -DOPO reached to 113.7°, implying its hydrophobic surface. Subsequently, the as-synthesized MH@MOF- g -DOPO was used to prepare PLA composites, which exhibited significantly improved flame retardancy, as indicated by the LOI value of 30.2 %, UL-94 V0 rating, and the reduction on PHRR by 70.1 %. The flame retardant mechanism was attributed to the synergistic effects of multiple flame retardant units (MH, Co-MOF and P) in MH@MOF- g -DOPO hybrids. Furthermore, the flame retarded PLA/20MH@MOF- g -DOPO achieved the brittle-tough transformation via uniaxial pre-stretch process, thus displayed outstanding mechanical properties (good stiffness and excellent toughness). Notably, compared to the pristine undraw PLA, the Youngꞌs modulus, tensile strength and the elongation at break PLA/20MH@MOF- g -DOPO increased by 35 %, 38 % and 1957 %, respectively. This work proposes an innovative and efficient method to achieve the excellent balance on flame retardancy and mechanical properties of PLA composites, benefiting to promoting their real-world applications as functional polymer materials.

A novel Mg-loaded chitosan carbonized microsphere (MCCM) was prepared for simultaneous adsorption of ammonium and phosphate in this study, through the investigation of preparation procedures, addition ratio, and preparation temperature. Pollutants removals by MCCM were more acceptable with 64.71% for ammonium and 99.26% for phosphorus, compared with chitosan carbonized microspheres (CCM), Mg-loaded chitosan hydrogel beads (MCH) and MgCl 2 ·6H 2 O. Addition ratio of 0.6:1 (m chitosan : m MgCl2 ) and preparation temperature of 400 °C in MCCM preparation were responsible for pollutant removal and yield. The effect analysis of MCCM dosage, solution pH, pollutant concentration , adsorption mode and coexisting ions on the removal for both ammonium and phosphate indicated that pollutants removals were increased with increasing MCCM dosages, and achieved the peak at pH 8.5, but presented to be stable with Na + , K + , Ca 2+ , Cl − , NO 3 − , CO 3 2− and SO 4 2− , except for Fe 3+ .Adsorption mechanisms discussion implied that simultaneous ammonium and phosphate removal with MCCM was attributed to struvite precipitation, ion exchange, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic attraction and Mg–P complexation, suggesting that MCCM presents a new way for simultaneous concentrated ammonium and phosphate removal in wastewater treatment .

This study developed a novel organic-inorganic hybrid composite, shortly as GO-PEG-LDHs, by self-assembly of exfoliated Mg–Al layer double hydroxide (LDHs) on the polyethylene glycol (PEG) grafted graphene oxide (GO) to achieve the selective adsorption of hemoglobin (Hb). The prepared GO-PEG-LDHs has a hierarchical structure with a homogeneous loading of exfoliated LDHs nano-sheets on its surface. The adsorption test reveals that GO-PEG-LDHs exhibits an adsorption efficiency of 95.03% for Hb and 3.45% for bovine serum albumin (BSA). The adsorption of Hb follows the Langmuir model, with an ultrahigh adsorption capacity of 55248.6 mg/g, which is higher than any previously reported materials. Meanwhile, the adsorbed Hb can be efficiently recovered through elution with a 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer, with an elution efficiency of 80.77%. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra indicate no conformational change for Hb during the process of adsorption/desorption. Furthermore, the composite demonstrates the ability to selectively isolate Hb in the presence of interfering protein BSA, indicating its potential for practical applications.

Polyamide/polyethylene thin film composite (PA/PE-TFC) NF membranes were prepared from reverse-phase interface polymerization (RIP) for improved Mg(II)/Li(I) separation. RIP processes between 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl chloride (TMC) in bottom organic phase and piperazine (PIP) in upper aqueous phase were developed to form continuous and intact surface PA separation layers on PE porous substrates thinner than traditional polysulfone (PSF) based substrates. After activation with isopropyl alcohol (IPA), PA/PE-TFC-IPA NF membranes were formed, whose NF performance could be tuned by adjusting the preparation conditions. When TMC concentration was kept at 0.15 % w/v, RIP with low PIP concentration (0.025 wt%) yield PA/PE-TFC-IPA NF membranes with negatively charged surfaces , high Na 2 SO 4 rejection rate (95 % ± 3 %) and water permeance (13–19 L·m −2 ·h −1 ·bar −1 ). RIP with high PIP concentration (0.3 wt%) formed PA/PE-TFC-IPA NF membranes with less negative surfaces, high MgCl 2 rejection rate (94.3 ± 0.7 %), low water permeance (4.8 ± 0.3 L·m −2 ·h −1 ·bar −1 ), and high Mg(II)/Li(I) separation coefficient S Li/Mg (18 ± 1) for 1000 ppm LiCl and MgCl 2 mixed solution. PA/PE-TFC-IPA NF membranes also showed good long-term stability and improved anti-fouling performance for positively charged pollutants, bearing high potential for applications in the lithium extraction processes.

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are widely used in bone fixation and bone repair as biodegradable bone-implant materials. However, their clinical application is limited due to their fast corrosion rate and poor mechanical stability. Here, the development of Mg–2Zn–0.5Ca–0.5Sr (MZCS) and Mg–2Zn–0.5Ca–0.5Zr (MZCZ) alloys with improved mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, cytocompatibility, osteogenesis performance, and antibacterial capability is reported. The hot-extruded (HE) MZCZ sample exhibits the highest ultimate tensile strength of 255.8 ± 2.4 MPa and the highest yield strength of 208.4 ± 2.8 MPa and an elongation of 15.7 ± 0.5%. The HE MZCS sample shows the highest corrosion resistance, with the lowest corrosion current density of 0.2 ± 0.1 µA cm −2 and the lowest corrosion rate of 4 ± 2 µm per year obtained from electrochemical testing, and a degradation rate of 368 µm per year and hydrogen evolution rate of 0.83 ± 0.03 mL cm −2 per day obtained from immersion testing. The MZCZ sample shows the highest cell viability in relation to MC3T3-E1 cells among all alloy extracts, indicating good cytocompatibility except at 25% concentration. Furthermore, the MZCZ alloy shows good antibacterial capability against Staphylococcus aureus .

Epoxy composite coating with active corrosion inhibition property was prepared through cathodic electrophoretic deposition with the incorporation of Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al layered double hydroxides (LDH) hybrid material . Hydrothermal method was adopted to synthesize molybdate (MoO 4 2− )-intercalated Mg Al LDH, which was self-assembled on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene through electrostatic interaction to improve the zeta potential of the Ti 3 C 2 Tx surface to positive value. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy , X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, zeta (ζ) potentials test and uv-vis spectroscopic analysis results showed that Mg Al LDH and Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al LDH were successfully prepared and Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al LDH had ion exchange property. The prepared LDH and Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al LDH were added to electrophoretic paint as anti-corrosive additives. After deposition process of 150 V for 2 min on the P110 steel surface, composite coatings had thicknesses of ~110 μm. Electrophoretic deposition has advantages in controlling coating thickness than traditional spray method. Moreover, Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al LDH additive endowed composite coating with active corrosion inhibition capacity through ions exchange property between corrosive medium Cl − and MoO 4 2− in the Mg Al LDH interlayer. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test results showed that Ti 3 C 2 Tx@Mg-Al LDH/epoxy coating exhibited outstanding corrosion protection property. This research provides a new way of using Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene in the cathodic electrophoretic paint to prepare active anti-corrosive coating.

Traumatic oral ulcers, arising from local physicochemical or mechanical stimuli, exhibit considerable discomfort, an extended healing period, and a potential for malignant transformation. Existing etiological treatments mainly include antibacterial therapy and promoting ulcer healing. Nevertheless, antibacterial therapy using antibiotics may cause unexpected side effects and drug resistance. Additionally, commonly used wound-healing drugs, such as growth factors and glucocorticoids, have drawbacks including instability, high cost, and systemic adverse reactions. To address these issues, a magnesium-incorporated photosensitive metal-organic framework (MOF) derivant, denoted as MgO/C, was developed by pyrolysis of Mg-MOF74. The MgO/C was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The established MgO/C showed an excellent photothermal antibacterial performance upon prevalent oral ulcer pathogens under near-infrared light irradiation, featured by antibacterial rates of 97.8 % and 96.5 % against Streptococcus mutans and Staphylococcus aureus , respectively. Moreover, the MgO/C exhibited controlled release of magnesium ions for up to four days and effectively enhanced fibroblast proliferation, migration and adhesion, at an optimal concentration of 200 ppm. A rat traumatic oral ulcer model demonstrated that the MgO/C+NIR group could facilitate ulcer healing in vivo , resulting in an increase of wound healing rate by 23.4 %, in comparison to the control on day 3. Our study revealed that MgO/C had great potential for the treatment of traumatic oral ulcers.

Upgrading carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into valuable products is a highly promising strategy of artificial carbon cycle. In this study, a series of in situ reduced CuMgAl layered double hydroxides (R-CuMgAl-LDHs) composites were synthesized, in which Cu nanoparticles were effectively dispersed and anchored on MgAl-LDHs with formation of Cu + and Cu 0 species. The optimized R-Cu 1.5 Mg 1.5 Al 1 -LDH exhibited excellent catalytic performance for the carboxylative cyclization of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol with CO 2 (turnover number of 243) under mild conditions. The layered structure of LDH stabilized the active Cu species with high dispersion, enhancing the catalytic efficiency of this carboxylative cyclization reaction. Simultaneously, the dual-activation of both CO 2 and propargylic alcohol by Cu 0 /Cu + species generated on the surface of LDH contributed significantly to the catalytic efficiency enhancement. Furthermore, R-Cu 1.5 Mg 1.5 Al 1 -LDH catalyzed the reaction of a wide range of terminal or internal propargyl alcohols with CO 2 , yielding various functionalized α-alkylene cyclic carbonates. Finally, a reasonable reaction mechanism was put forward according to the comprehensive analysis.

New technology is required for the effective disinfection of pathogenic bacteria in water. A novel type of activator material (Fe-Mg-Mt-SS) was prepared using bimetallic iron-magnesium (Fe-Mg), montmorillonite (Mt), and sewage sludge carbon (SS) and applied it for disinfection. The specific surface area of Fe-Mg-Mt-SS was 115.72 m 2 /g, and the spatial structure of Fe-Mg-Mt-SS was orderly and layered. Mt played a role in frame support, and Fe-Mg was integrated into the structure in an orderly manner. Fe-Mg-Mt-SS effectively activated persulfate (PS) to disinfect Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) in water, with a disinfection rate of 7.00 lg of E. coli within 80 min in the PS/Fe-Mg-Mt-SS system, and the high disinfection rate was stable under different pH and elevated temperatures. Fe-Mg-Mt-SS showed broad spectrum disinfectant efficiency against other bacteria ( Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Bacillus subtilis ). Fe-Mg-Mt-SS activated PS killed E. coli mainly by producing hydroxyl and oxygen radicals, which damaged the E. coli cell membrane. Bimetallic activation with Fe and Mg synergistically activated PS, graphitised SS had more orderly spatial and laminar structures, and Mt improved the thermal stability and layer spacing of Fe-Mg-Mt-SS, which facilitated better metal insertion and improved its activation properties. The preparation of Fe-Mg-Mt-SS and activation of PS provide a new technology for the disinfection of pathogenic bacteria in water.

Contrary to the traditional strengthening route by adding multiple & high-dosage alloying elements, we here explored extremely compositional and phase-constituent “simplification” in rare earth (RE) containing biodegradable magnesium alloys for better biocompatibility. An ultra-lean Mg-0.1Pr alloy with a multiscale microstructure has been developed through casting and extrusion, which showed well-balanced performances that match the commercial Mg-based orthopedic products. Compared to the first clinically approved WE43 magnesium alloy, the complex RE addition (7 wt.%) in WE43 is simplified into one single RE (0.1 wt.%) with its content having a 70-fold reduction in the newly developed alloy, while without impairing mechanical properties (tensile strength: 285.6 MPa). This also leads to a mild degradation rate, a good cell & tissue compatibility and osteogenic capacity both in vitro and in vivo . The simplified Mg-0.1Pr alloy exhibits excellent local and systemic biocompatibility in the femoral condyle of rats during a 16-month long-term follow-up, with this period approximately covering the entire life cycle of the implant. In addition, the Mg-0.1Pr alloy exhibits a significantly lowered RE transfer and accumulation in rats compared to other Mg-RE alloys, which possibly alleviates the RE metabolic burden to main organs. Pr is neither accumulated in the corrosion product layer nor in the surrounding bones. This work provides a new solution to maintain the high performance of Mg-RE alloys with extremely compositional “plainification”, which should further benefit for the safety and reliability of RE-strengthened biodegradable metals in the long-term.
