Indoor pollution is a major health issue. In particular, urea pollution is drawing significant attention. Herein, we designed functional wooden window with the unique ability to photocatalytically degrade indoor pollutants, specifically urea. The transparent wooden window has been prepared via one-pot hydrothermal polymerization on a chemical-treated wood in order to incorporate resorcinol–formaldehyde. A hybrid wood denoted as resorcinol–formaldehyde-wood composite capable of photocatalytically degrading urea has been obtained. Mechanism study shows that the urea is degraded on composite interface via the as-formed hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generated from hydrogen peroxide. Further employing a large-scale (150 mm × 200 mm) resorcinol–formaldehyde-wood window for control of toilet urea pollution, a 100% urea removal efficiency was achieved in less than one hour.

Edible packaging films using polymer for food preservation have been developed for a long time. In this study, the effects of different concentrations (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, w/v) of tea polyphenols incorporated into pullulan-Carboxymethylcellulose sodium (Pul-CMC) solutions on electrospun nanofiber films were evaluated. The fiber size distribution was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The morphological features of nanofibers were modulated through adjusting process parameters (e.g. concentration of polymer solution, applied voltage and feeding rate). Increasing the applied voltage from 19 to 21 kV and the feed rate from 0.36 to 0.6 mL/h leads to a reduction in mean fiber diameter. Fruit packaging potential was evaluated using strawberry. The pullulan-CMC-TP nanofibers significantly decreased weight loss and maintained the firmness of the strawberries, and improved the quality of the fruit during storage. The findings demonstrate a facile packaging route to improve food sustainability and reduce waste.

The white pollution caused by non-degradable plastics poses a serious threat to human society and the environment, thus developing biodegradable material is urgent. In this work, a novel phosphonitrile hybrid metal-polyphenol network was constructed and used for the preparation of flame retardant , UV resistant and antibacterial multifunctional polyvinyl alcohol composite (PVA@HCPD-Ag). The limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of PVA@HCPD-Ag was improved to 33.5%, while the peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release (THR) decreased by 35.62% and 47.76%. Besides, the ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) value of PVA@HCPD-Ag was significantly improved from 4.63 of the original PVA to 482.79, while the tensile strength was increased by 10.23%. Furthermore, the inhibition efficacy of PVA@HCPD-Ag for E. coli and S. aureus was up to 98.12% and 99.99%. This work explored the synergistic flame retardant effect of in-situ reduced Ag 0 and phosphonitrile crosslinked polyphenol network and proposed an advanced strategy for developing high value-added functionalized PVA materials.

Two “click” binaphthyl chiral stationary phases were synthesized and evaluated by liquid chromatography. Their structures incorporate S-(−)-1,1'-binaphthyl moiety as the chiral selector and 1,2,3-triazole ring as the spacer. These chiral stationary phases (CSPs) allowed the efficient resolution for a wide range of racemic BINOL derivatives, particularly for nonpolar diether derivatives and 3-phenyl indolin-2-one analogs. The chromatographic data showed that the π–π interaction was crucial for enantiorecognition of these CSPs. Loss of enantioselectivity observed on CSP3 , which are lacking the triazole ring linkage, indicated that the triazole ring linkage took part in the enantioseparation process, although it was remote from the chiral selector of the CSP. The substitution of the phenyl group at 6 and 6' positions can significantly improve the separation ability of the CSP. The chiral recognition mechanism was also investigated by tracking the elution orders and studying the thermodynamic parameters. Chirality 24:391–399, 2012 . Copyright © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Organic pollutants in aqueous solutions may potentially be adsorbed on biochar. In this study, biochar was derived from the pyrolysis of chitosan at 800°C. The removal rate of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) exceeded 80%. Investigations by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Brunauer– Emmett–Teller indicated that the adsorption of organic pollutants on biochar tends to be a physical process. The optimized pH was 5. All three isotherm models involved (Freundlich, Koble–Corrigan, and Henry) could describe the adsorption process of 2,4-DCP well on chitosan-biochar, which was non-uniform surface adsorption in a diluted solution. The adsorption was an endothermic process. It took 40 min to reach the adsorption equilibrium, and kinetics of the Elovich equation and intraparticle diffusion (IPD) model indicated that the adsorption rate at the rapid adsorption stage was simultaneously controlled by surface diffusion and IPD and that at slow adsorption stage was controlled by surface diffusion. The ionic strengths suggested that electrostatic interaction was not the dominant mechanism during this process.

The graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was fabricated and used to determine 4-aminophenol (4-AP). In 0.1 M pH 6.3 phosphate buffer solution , the redox peak currents of 4-AP increased significantly and the peak-to-peak separation decreased greatly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified GCE compared with bare GCE and chitosan modified GCE, indicating that graphene possessed electrocatalytic activity towards 4-AP. The experimental conditions were optimized and the kinetic parameters were investigated. The oxidation mechanism was discussed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peak current was proportional to 4-AP concentration in the range from 0.2 to 550 μM with the correlation coefficient of 0.9930. The detection limit was 0.057 μM (S/N = 3). Using the proposed method, 4-AP was successfully determined in water samples and paracetamol tablets with standard addition method, suggesting that this method can be applied to determine 4-AP in environments and pharmaceuticals.

Currently, polysaccharide-based hydrogels are widely studied macromolecular networks to modify drug dissolution from controlled-releasing matrix tablets. Among them, polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) films consisted of chitosan (CS) and sodium alginate (SA) could be obtained via spontaneously assembling under physiological gastrointestinal environment. Here, we utilized these self-assembled PEC films as an efficient coating materials to develop controlled-released matrix tablets through compression coating process, with paracetamol (APAP) as model drug. The constitutive and morphology characteristic studies on these PEC films illustrated that the mixture of CS and SA with the weight ratio of 1:1 would be an promising outer layer for compression-coating tablets. In addition, the in vitro drug releasing behavior experiments demonstrated that the optimized compression coating tablets displayed satisfied zero-order drug releasing profits. Furthermore, the in vivo pharmacokinetic studies of these APAP loaded compression-coated tablets in New Zealand rabbits gave that the T max (12.32 ± 1.05 h) was significantly prolonged ( p < 0.01), compared to that (0.89 ± 0.26 h) of common APAP tablets (Jinfuning ® ) after oral administration. These studies suggest that the compression-coated tablets with self-assembled PEC film as coating outer layer may be a promising strategy for peroral controlled release delivery system of water soluble drugs.

An effective and highly selective molecularly imprinted material was prepared by suspension polymerization for the isolation and pre-concentration of synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) in seawater . The obtained MIPMs were proved to have more uniform size and porous structure, with maximum adsorption capacity of 8.43 mg g − 1 almost two times more than NIPMs (4.43 mg g − 1 ). The MIPMs showed no significant deterioration of the adsorption capacity after five rounds of regeneration. An off-line molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction (MISPE) method followed by HPLC–DAD was proposed for the detection of DES in seawater , and recoveries were satisfactorily higher than 77%. Four seawater samples in aquaculture area were analyzed and 0.61 ng mL − 1 DES was detected in one sample. The result demonstrated that this method can be used for the rapid separation and clean up of trace residual of DES in seawater.

This work mainly studied the influence of SiC and Si3N4 composite fillers on the ablation performance of silica/phenolic composites. The effect of Si3N4 content on the mechanical and ablative properties of the composites was investigated, and the bridging effect between the two different ceramic fillers was analyzed. The results indicated that the mechanical properties and ablation properties of the composite were improved due to the combined effect of the SiC and Si3N4. When the content of Si3N4 was 36phr, the flexural strength at room temperature was 114.6 MPa, the flexural strength after 1200 °C treatment was 18.38 MPa, and the linear ablation rate was 0.011 mm/s in the 1600 °C oxyacetylene ablation test for 30s, while the flexural strength without Si3N4 at room temperature was 105.4 MPa, the flexural strength after 1200 °C treatment was 10.35 MPa, and linear ablation rate was 0.061 mm/s in the 1600 °C oxyacetylene ablation test for 30s. The bridges between the Si3N4 and SiC ceramic fillers can form SiO2, SiCN and Si2N2O in the high temperature environment, which helps fill the pores on the surface of the composite, forming an effective protective layer structure and improving the high temperature and erosion resistance of the composites.

A novel method was developed for the determination of two endocrine-disrupting chemicals, bisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol, in vegetable oil by dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction followed by ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Using a magnetic liquid as the microextraction solvent, several key parameters were optimized, including the type and volume of the magnetic liquid, extraction time, amount of dispersant, and the type of reverse extractant. The detection limits for bisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol were 0.1 and 0.06 μg/kg, respectively. The recoveries were 70.4–112.3%, and the relative standard deviations were less than 4.2%. The method is simple for the extraction of bisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol from vegetable oil and suitable for routine analysis.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an effective endocrine-disrupting compound (EDC) that causes adverse effects on human health and environment. Therefore, it is indispensable to construct efficacious methods for evaluating the level of BPA to enhance the quality of life. In this study, a facile electrochemical sensor based on reduced graphene oxide-silver/poly- l -lysine nanocomposites (RGO-Ag/PLL) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is proposed for the detection of BPA. The synthesized RGO-Ag/PLL nanocomposites displays high electrocatalytic activity towards the electrochemical oxidation of BPA. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) is used as an analytical method for the quantitative determination of BPA, and the fabricated electrochemical sensor exhibits a linear response to BPA in the range of 1–80 μM with the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.54 μM at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Additionally, the developed RGO-Ag/PLL/GCE sensor is applied to detect the BPA in drinking water , and obtains satisfactory results.

Bioderived polycarbonate (ISB-PC) was synthesized via transesterification and polycondensation of isosorbide (ISB) and diphenyl carbonate (DPC) using lithium acetoacetone as a catalyst. The resulting ISB-PC exhibited high glass transition temperatures similar to bisphenol A polycarbonate (BPA-PC) and was thermally stable up to 350 ℃. The incorporation of isosorbitol into the polymer chain imparted an improved mechanical property of ISB-PC, such as a higher bending and tensile modulus and higher elongation at break. ISB-PC can be readily cast into transparent films with a tensile strength of 73.3 MPa and a tensile modulus of 534 MPa. ISB-PC displayed high UV transmittance and possessed blue fluorescence under UV irradiation. At the same time, ISB-PC also has strong anti-yellowing ability.
