A simple, inexpensive, fast, and visual distance-based paper analytical device has been developed for on-site detection of Pb(II). Pb(II) can inhibit the catalytic activity of G-quadruplex/hemin (G4/hemin) DNAzyme induced by K + , which catalyzes 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) immobilized on paper to produce a visible blue band. The factors affecting Pb(II) detection have been optimized with PS concentration of 3 μM, K + concentration of 10 mM, and hemin concentration of 10 μM, as well as the straight channel width of 2.0 mm. It can be well found that the formed length correlates with the concentration of Pb(II) with a linear detection range of 0.02 μM − 50 μM. A fitting linear equation of Y = 20.793–5.391Log C (R 2 = 0.9788) can be obtained with a lowest detection limit of 1 nM. Additionally, the method is capable of selectively detecting Pb(II) and works well for Pb(II) detection in real samples. Overall, the visual distance-based paper analytical device offers an ideal platform for on-site detection of heavy metal ions, especially in resource-limited areas.

Ag 2 Se quantum dots (QDs) as an effective biological probe in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) have been widely applied in bioimaging with high tissue penetration depth and high spatiotemporal resolution. However, the ions deficiency and crystal defects caused by the high Ag + mobility in Ag 2 Se crystals are mainly responsible for the inefficient photoluminescence (PL) of Ag 2 Se QDs. Herein, a tailored route is reported to achieve controllable doping of Ag 2 Se QDs in which Ag is exchanged by Pb via cation exchange (CE), which is unattainable by direct synthetic methods. The Pb-doped Ag 2 Se QDs (denoted as Pb:Ag 2 Se QDs) present fire-new optical features with significantly enhanced PL intensity of 4.2 folds. Photoelectron spectroscopy confirms that Pb acts as an n-type dopant for Ag 2 Se QDs and therefore the electronic impurities provide additional carriers to fill the traps. Moreover, the general validity of this method is demonstrated to convert different sized Ag 2 Se into Pb:Ag 2 Se QDs, so that a wide range of NIR-II PL with high intensity is obtained. The bright NIR-II emission of Pb:Ag 2 Se QDs is further successfully performed in lymphatic system mapping.

Here, we fabricated Cs-rich and Pb-rich Cs4PbBr6 samples with green photoluminescence emission and investigated the difference between them. Both Cs-rich and Pb-rich Cs4PbBr6 samples show strong green emissions at about 520 nm; however, the photoluminescence excitation properties of the green emission are greatly different from each other in the ultraviolet region. The photoluminescence excitation spectra of the Cs-rich sample have a broad excitation band from 334 to 500 nm. In comparison, the Pb-rich sample has two additional excitation bands of 250–300 and 324–334 nm. By correlating the experimental data with the theoretical calculations, the green photoluminescence emission can be attributed to the embedded CsPbBr3 nanocrystals, and the interlayer between Cs4PbBr6 and CsPbBr3 nanocrystals plays an important role in determining their photoluminescence excitation properties. It was proposed that the existence of the CsBr interlayer between the Cs4PbBr6 matrix and embedded CsPbBr3 nanocrystals block the electron transfer of excited Cs4PbBr6 and induce photoluminesence quenching under excitation of 250–300 nm.

Enhanced stability and prolonged reactivity of nanoparticles are critical factors for successful applications of the nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) technology. In this work, g-C 3 N 4 was employed as a support for distributing, stabilizing nZVI and further changing the composition, microstructure and electronic structure of nZVI due to the interactions between the iron nanoparticles and g-C 3 N 4 sheet. Adjusting the micro-structure of nZVI to enhance the adsorption ability, control the electron transfer, shift IEP negatively, and improve the reactivities and stabilities coordinatively results in stabilized and long-term effective g-nZVI. For example, the accumulated wastewater (i.e., [Pb(II)] = 10 mg/L) treatment volume with g-nZVI in 5 runs is determined to be 50 L, more than twice the treatment capacity of bare nZVI. Besides, more Pb(II) is reduced to metallic Pb by g-nZVI than that by nZVI. Characterizations with spherical-aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (Cs-STEM) integrated with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), Raman spectroscopy, etc. visualize and quantitatively analyze the structural differences and distinctive reactive behaviors of nZVI and g-nZVI. The N-containing functional groups efficiently capture aqueous metal cations, accelerate mass transfer and electron transport from the iron core to surface-attached metal ions. In addition, the nZVI micro-structure change and the formation of covalent bonds between the lone-pair electron of nitrogen and empty orbital of iron apparently reduced the iron corrosion. Results provide direct evidence on the interface chemistry of g-nZVI and further verify the graphitic carbon nitride induces the Pb(II) ions to be deposited, reduced and grown onto iron nanoparticles.

New borophosphates Li3Cs2M2B3P6O24 (M = Pb, Sr) have been synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reactions. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction data reveal their non-centrosymmetric cubic space group P213 and lattice parameters of a = 12.7246(3) Å and 12.687(2) Å and V = 2060.31(8) Å3 and 2042.3(4) Å3 for Li3Cs2Pb2B3P6O24 and Li3Cs2Sr2B3P6O24, respectively. They are three-dimensional (3D) [BP2O8]3−∞ anionic frameworks formed by a new double six-membered ring building unit consisting of BO4 and PO4 units joined alternately. Interestingly, such a double six-membered ring is regarded as the structural variation of the 12-membered ring in the known KSrBP2O8, fusing at the BO4 tetrahedron induced by the coexistence of the Li+ and Cs+ cations with their large size difference. The title compounds show weak SHG intensity and exhibit photoluminescence emissions at 410 nm for Li3Cs2Pb2B3P6O24 and 440 nm for Li3Cs2Sr2B3P6O24.

Nanoporous adsorbents of ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C were synthesized by using a metal organic framework (FeIII-modified MOF-5) as both the precursor and the self-sacrificing template. The adsorption properties of ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C toward Pb(II) ions were investigated, including the pH effect, adsorption equilibrium and adsorption kinetics. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics were well described by using the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order model, respectively. The MOF-derived inorganic adsorbents exhibited high absorption performance with a maximum adsorption capacity of 344.83 mg g−1. X-ray powder diffraction and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy suggest that Zn(II) was substituted by a significant portion of Pb(II) on the surface of ZnO nanocrystals. Microscopic observations also demonstrate the effect of Pb(II) ions on ZnO crystals as reflected by the considerably reduced average particle size and defective outer layer. Quantitative measurement of the released Zn(II) ions and the adsorbed Pb(II) ions indicated a nearly linear relationship (R2 = 0.977). Moreover, Pb-containing ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C adsorbents are strongly magnetic allowing their separation from the water environment by an external magnet.

In this work, we design mesoporous silica-coated Prussian blue nanocubes with PEGyltation to construct multifunctional PB@mSiO2–PEG nanocubes. The PB@mSiO2–PEG nanocubes have good biocompatibility, excellent photothermal transformation capacity, in vivo magnetic resonance and photoacoustic imaging ability. After loading antitumor drug doxorubicin (DOX) in the PB@mSiO2–PEG nanocubes, the constructured PB@mSiO2–PEG/DOX nanoplatforms show an excellent pH-responsive drug release character within 48 h, namely, an ultralow cumulative drug release amount of 3.1% at pH 7.4 and a high release amount of 46.6% at pH 5.0. Upon near-infrared laser irradiation, the PB@mSiO2–PEG/DOX nanoplatforms show an enhanced synergistic photothermal and chemical therapeutic efficacy for breast cancer than solo photothermal therapy or chemotherapy.

A novel magnetic adsorbent (EDTA /chitosan/ PMMS) was facilely prepared by reacting chitosan with EDTA anhydride in presence of PEI - coated magnetic microspheres. The as-synthesized EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS was characterized by XRD, SEM, TGA, FT-IR , and VSM, and then employed in removal of heavy metals of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The results of the batch adsorption experiments revealed that the adsorbents had extremely high uptake capacities for Pb(II) in the pH range of 2 to 5.5, and the adsorption kinetics for EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS was consistent with the pseudo – second - order kinetic model. Moreover, its equilibrium data were fitted with the Langmuir isothermal model well, which indicated that the adsorption mechanism was a homogeneous monolayer chemisorptions process. The maximum adsorption capacity of EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS for Pb(II) was found to be 210 mg g − 1 at pH 4 (30 ° C), and further reuse experiments results suggested that EDTA /chitosan/ PMMS could be a potential recyclable magnetic adsorbent in the practical wastewater treatment. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The synthesis of zeolite ETS-10 is strongly influenced by factors such as pH, the amount of the structure-directing agent, hydrothermal temperature and duration, which collectively affect the material’s morphology and structure. This study thoroughly investigates the effects of these parameters on the synthesis of ETS-10 zeolite using TiCl 3 and a waterglass solution. Characterization of the materials was performed through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and nitrogen isotherm adsorption-desorption at 77 K (BET-BJH) techniques. The findings indicate that pH and the structure-directing agent significantly influenced the phase composition , while hydrothermal temperature predominantly determined the crystallization rate of ETS-10. Optimal synthesis conditions were established at an initial pH of 11, employing 0.3 g of the structure-directing agent and conducting hydrothermal crystallization at 230 °C for 24 h. Under these conditions, the ETS-10 zeolite produced exhibited a high surface area of 300.1 m 2 /g, making it effective in removing Pb 2+ ions from solution. In particular, when tested under optimal conditions (pH 5) for 600 min, Pb (II) adsorption by ETS-10 reached a maximum uptake capacity of 956.19 mg/g, as determined by the Langmuir isotherm model. This capacity surpasses that of as-synthesized ETS-10 prepared from alternative Ti sources and other materials used in previous studies on Pb(II) adsorption.

In this study, a low-cost porous geopolymers (PGP) were prepared using coal gangue and fly ash as raw materials to remove organic and heavy metal ions from wastewater. Various characterization techniques were employed to investigate the microstructure, morphology, pore size distribution, and surface functional groups of the porous geopolymers. The results indicate that the geopolymer exhibits a porous structure with hydroxyl groups on the surface after foaming. It was found that the porous geopolymers exhibited good adsorption capacity for Methylene Blue (MB), Cu(II), and Pb(II), with optimal adsorption capacities reaching 35.60 mg/g, 98.31 mg/g, and 85.67 mg/g, respectively. Fitting analysis suggests that the adsorption of MB, Cu(II), and Pb(II) is better described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model. This indicates that the adsorption process is primarily chemical adsorption with multilayer adsorption. Competitive adsorption studies showed that Cu(II) could enhance the adsorption of MB, while Pb(II) had no significant effect on the adsorption of MB. Mechanistic studies revealed that the adsorption of MB by PGP is mainly through pore adsorption, electrostatic attraction, and hydrogen bond formation; whereas the adsorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) is primarily through pore adsorption, electrostatic attraction, chemical reactions, and ion exchange. Recycling experiments demonstrated that after five repetitions, the adsorption capacity of PGP for the three pollutants remained above 60 %. These findings confirm the potential of porous geopolymers as adsorbents. Preliminary cost analysis shows that the adsorption cost of porous geopolymers is only 2.07 RMB/kg, making the geopolymer adsorbent economically advantageous and promising for application, especially considering its ability to utilize industrial solid waste.

Heavy metal pollution is a huge hazard to the water environment and modified clay adsorbents have been widely used to remove heavy metals from water. Degradable anionic chelating agents have a greater potential for the immobilization of heavy metals, so tetrasodium iminodisuccinate (IDS) was introduced to modify montmorillonite (Mt) for Pb(II) and Cd(II) adsorption from water in this study. IDS was bound with Mt by sonication, heating, and acidity to form IDS-Mt, and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and zeta potential analyzer. The batch adsorption experiments revealed that IDS-Mt5 had excellent adsorption capacity of Pb(II) and Cd(II) up to 214.73 mg/L and 104.07 mg/L, respectively. The adsorption process of IDS-Mt on Pb(II) and Cd(II) was consistent with the Sips model and PSO model, indicating that the adsorption was heterogeneous and chemical. The adsorption capacities of IDS-Mt in the second cycle remained above 76 % for Pb(II) and 69 % for Cd(II) of the initial ones, respectively. IDS was immobilized on the interlayer and edge surfaces of Mt through interactions or forming hydrogen bonds facilitated by ultrasonic under acidic heating conditions. Pb(II) and Cd(II) were immobilized by IDS-Mt through cation exchange, negative charge attraction at the edge surface, and IDS chelation. IDS-Mt was an excellent adsorbent with strong dispersibility and swelling properties for Pb(II) and Cd(II) removal from contaminated water. This study provides a new solution for the anionic modification of Mt and a new material for the treatment of heavy metal wastewater.

Adsorbents with fast kinetics and high capacity have always been attractive for wastewater treatment. Herein, multi-shelled hollow mesoporous organosilica functionalized by hydroxyphosphatoethyl groups on dual-pore surfaces (P-HMO) is prepared by general one-pot co-condensation. The resulting P-HMO exhibits high hydrophilicity, large surface area and well-developed pore structure, providing P-HMO fast adsorption kinetics (C 0 = 320 mg·L -1 , equilibrium within 5 min) and ultrahigh adsorption efficiency for Pb(II) and Cr(VI), the adsorption capacity reaches 1056.53 and 869.56 mg·g −1 , respectively. Furthermore, P-HMO displays outstanding reusability over 10 adsorption–desorption cycles thanks to the stable framework structure that can resist wear and tear during water treatment. The advantages of long service life, high efficiency and broad pH range make P-HMO promising in industrial water purification.
