Graphical MOFs-templated MgO/ZrO 2 enable highly selective glucose-to-fructose conversion. Structural confinement suppresses MgO agglomeration and tunes basicity, achieving 38.4% yield with 90.9% selectivity. High-selectivity glucose isomerization to fructose is essential for the biorefinery industry and fructose syrup production. In this work, a catalyst with tailored basicity was synthesized via the calcination of a MOFs (metal-organic frameworks)-based composite and employed as a chemo-catalyst for glucose isomerization, achieving high fructose selectivity. Characterization results confirmed that the synthesized catalyst was a composite consisting of and MgO, with MgO highly dispersed within the channels of . The MOFs templating effect restricted particle size and minimized agglomeration of MgO particles, enhancing the interaction between MgO and . This strong interaction effectively modulated the basicity of the catalyst, resulting in the predominance of weak basic sites. As a result, the catalyst demonstrated superior performance in glucose isomerization, achieving a 38.4% fructose yield with 90.9% selectivity at a 10 wt% glucose concentration, outperforming catalysts prepared by conventional methods. However, leaching remains a challenge. This work presents a novel approach for synthesizing highly dispersed mixed oxides and provides an effective catalyst for glucose isomerization.

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 MgO-doped hexagonal boron nitride (MgO-h-BN) nanomaterials were designed as a support for Palladium (Pd) catalysts for CO oxidation reaction. The catalytic properties of Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst was investigated and compared with Pd/h-BN catalyst. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results suggested that the PdO nanoparticles with small grain sizes (ca. 8 nm) were effectively dispersed on the surface of MgO, and the MgO were deposited on the h-BN nanosheets in the Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses revealed that a small amount of Mg 2+ embedded into the B vacancies of h-BN nanosheets in the Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst. More significantly, a large amount of adsorbed oxygen appeared near the B vacancies of Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst. The experiments outcomes of diffuse reflectance fourier transform spectra analysis of CO (CO-DRIFT) indicated that the carbonate/formate species were easily decomposed to CO 2 on the Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst than Pd/h-BN catalyst, which might be a reason why the Pd/MgO(5)-h-BN catalyst had high CO oxidation activity. According to above analyses, we provide a new insight for the MgO-h-BN nanomaterials for Pd catalysts for application in CO oxidation reaction.

To achieve the commercial application of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), the performance degradation of the cell caused by carbon deposition needs to be well addressed. Here we report a new anode with nanostructured heterogeneous interfaces by integrating 0.38 wt% Sn and 0.19 wt% MgO into Ni SDC for hydrocarbon-fueled SOFCs. The cell with 0.38Sn–0.19MgO Ni SDC anode exhibits a peak power density of 374 mW cm −2 and excellent long-term stability for 100 h with a power attenuation about 13.5% in humidified methane at 700 °C, which is attributed to the decreased rate of carbon deposition by promoting the formation of C O bonds instead of C C bonds, increasing the activation barrier for methane cracking and preventing the formation of nickel carbides by the confinement effect of heterogeneous catalysts, and the enhanced rate of carbon removal is attributed to excellent hydrophilicity and adsorption of CO 2 , as revealed by combined density function theory (DFT) calculations and experimental characterizations. This finding offers potential for the application of hydrocarbon-fueled SOFCs and provides a guide for designing coking-tolerant anodes.

Photocatalysis is regarded as one of the most promising techniques for degrading organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) from wastewater given its low-cost and environmental benignity. Yet, photocatalytic degradation of OPs is an incomplete process, since PO 4 3− is produced after photocatalysis. Here, biochar-supported α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO composite (BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO) is developed for sequential photocatalytic degradation of OPs and recovery of the produced PO 4 3− . The degradation efficiency of N-phosphonomethyl iminodiacetic acid (NPA) by BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO based photocatalysis reaches 90.1% within 80 min, and the recovery ratio of the produced PO 4 3− by BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO is as high as 82.3%. Besides, the as-prepared BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO used in this integrated photocatalysis and adsorption process maintain a high stability towards NPA degradation and PO 4 3− recovery during five cycling experiments. The mechanistic study reveals that holes, •OH, and • O 2 – radicals generated in the photocatalytic process are responsible for NPA degradation. UV light can activate persistent free radicals on BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO surface, which provide O 2 with electrons for the generation of • O 2 – and subsequent yield of •OH. Moreover, the presence of α-Fe 2 O 3 and MgO on the surface of biochar leads to the excellent P adsorption performance of BC-α-Fe 2 O 3 /MgO. This study opens new possibilities for the recovery of P resource from organophosphorus polluted wastewater.

Developing highly efficient MOFs derived alloy catalysts for the one-pot tandem catalytic reactions remains a challenge. In this work, a novel solid-solution confined NiCo alloy catalyst incorporating carbon (termed as NiCo/MgO-C) with banana-like morphology has been synthesized via a self-templating strategy for directing pyrolysis of well-defined Ni-Co-Mg tri-metallic MOFs (termed as Ni-Co-Mg@H 2 dhbdc, H 2 dhbdc represents 2,5-dihydroxytelephthalic acid organic linker). The developed NiCo/MgO-C catalyst was applied for the hydrogenation-alkylation tandem catalytic reaction. Owing to the unique structural (e.g., highly dispersed, small size of NiCo nanoparticles, enhanced transfer of electron density) as well as NiCo alloy advantages, the developed NiCo/MgO-C catalyst derived from Ni-Co-Mg@H 2 dhbdc MOFs delivers excellent superior catalytic performance for the hydrogenation-alkylation tandem reaction to those of bimetallic MOFs (Ni-Mg@H 2 dhbdc and Co-Mg@H 2 dhbdc, respectively) derived catalysts (Ni/MgO-C and Co/MgO-C, respectively). Notably, the tri-metallic Ni-Co-Mg@H 2 dhbdc served as the precursor for synthesis of developed catalyst could enhance the reduction degree of NiO/CoO species confined in NiO CoO-MgO solid-solution during the pyrolysis process to some extent. Therefore, we anticipated that this tri-metallic MOFs-templated strategy may provide a facile and controllable way for synthesis of solid-solution supported nanoalloy catalysts for the other heterogeneous catalytic reactions.

Heterogeneous activation of peroxydisulfate (PDS) by transition metal oxides offers a promising strategy for organic pollutants removal but suffers from low electron transfer efficiency. Herein, layered MgO supported CuO nanoparticles was prepared by thermal conversion of metal-phenolic networks of Cu 2+ /Mg 2+ and tannic acid. CuO nanoparticles (∼2 nm) were spatial monodispersed on layered MgO, inducing the formation of electron deficient Cu 3+ and surface oxygen vacancies and thus facilitated adsorption and activation of PDS. The electron-rich CuO/MgO hybrid catalysts manifested good catalytic performance of PDS activation for organic pollutants removal. At 0.18 g/L of CuO/MgO hybrid catalyst and 0.2 mM of PDS, complete removal of bisphenol A (BPA) was achieved with a high kinetic constant (0.1 min −1 , 50 min). Quenching experiments, electron paramagnetic resonance tests, PDS decomposition behaviors, electrochemical analysis and in situ ATR-FTIR and Raman spectroscopy revealed a nonradical pathway of electron transfer for PDS activation. The CuO/MgO hybrid catalysts exhibited wide working pH range from 3 to 11, selective oxidation capability, good resistance to halide ion and high utilization efficiency of PDS, and thus would be a promising candidate for wastewater remediation.

Co-gasification of biomass and waste plastics is a promising technology for H 2 production. In this work, Ni-CaO-Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 and Ni-CaO-MgO bi-functional materials were prepared from carbide slag for H 2 production in sorption-enhanced steam gasification experiments of cellulose/polyethylene mixtures. The H 2 production and CO 2 capture performances of Ni-CaO-Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 and Ni-CaO-MgO in sorption-enhanced steam gasification of cellulose/polyethylene were studied and compared. Density functional theory calculations, including the density of states, electron differential densities, and adsorption energies were performed to investigate the effect of supports on the stability and reactivity of Ni-CaO-based bifunctional materials at a microscopic level. The results exhibit that polyethene contributes to improving the H 2 production effectiveness of cellulose sorption-enhanced steam gasification, the optimum mass ratio of cellulose to polyethene is 0.5:0.5. The CO 2 capture capacity, H 2 yield, and H 2 concentration using Ni-CaO-Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 can be respectively 2.0, 2.6, and 1.4 times as high as those using Ni-CaO-MgO in the 20th cycle, which indicates the higher cyclic stability and catalytic activity of Ni-CaO-Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 . Density functional theory results also indicate that Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 can better retain the stable structure of Ni-CaO-based materials, which is consistent with the experimental results. Compared with MgO, Ca 12 Al 14 O 33 is a better framework for Ni-CaO-based bifunctional material for H 2 production in the sorption-enhanced steam gasification process.

Graphical Replace the atom : Ni 2+ -doped MgO catalyst is developed via a combined theoretical and experimental approach, which exhibits excellent performance toward the glycolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with a bis(hydroxyethyl) terephthalate yield of 93.7 %. Ni 2+ doping is found critical to the generation of O − and deprotonated ethylene glycol which break the PET chain via nucleophilic attack. Developing efficient and eco-friendly catalysts for selective degradation of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is critical to the circular economy of plastics. Herein, we report the first monatomic oxygen anion (O − )-rich MgO−Ni catalyst based on a combined theoretical and experimental approach, which achieves a bis(hydroxyethyl) terephthalate yield of 93.7 % with no heavy metal residues detected. DFT calculations and electron paramagnetic resonance characterization indicate that Ni 2+ doping not only reduces the formation energy of oxygen vacancies, but also enhances local electron density to facilitate the conversion of adsorbed oxygen into O − . O − plays a crucial role in the deprotonation of ethylene glycol (EG) to EG − (exothermic by −0.6 eV with an activation barrier of 0.4 eV), which is proved effective to break the PET chain via nucleophilic attack on carbonyl carbon. This work reveals the potential of alkaline earth metal-based catalysts in efficient PET glycolysis.

As for wound drug delivery, microneedles (MNs) have attracted wide attention. However, while effective at increasing the depth of drug delivery, traditional MNs often have limited drug loads and have difficulty penetrating scabs on wounds. Herein, we develop a drug delivery system combining MgO@polydopamine (MgO@PDA) nanoparticle-loaded photothermal MN patches and chitosan (CS) gel to inhibit the formation of scabs and deliver sufficient drugs into deep tissue. When inserted into the wound, the MN system can keep the wound bed moist and weakly acidic to inhibit the formation of scabs and accelerate wound closure. The released MgO@PDA nanoparticles from both the tips and the backing layer, which immensely increase the drug load, continuously release Mg2+ in the moist, weakly acidic wound bed, promoting tissue migration and the formation of microvessels. MgO@PDA nanoparticles show excellent antibacterial activity under near-infrared irradiation synergized with the CS gel, and the PDA coating can also overcome the adverse effects of oxidative stress. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, the MN system showed remarkable antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic effects, indicating its potential in the treatment of infectious wounds.

Near-infrared (NIR) light-responsive shape-memory polymers have drawn increasing attention because NIR light is safe and easy to perform in biological applications. Herein, a novel NIR light-responsive shape-memory polymer composite is developed, which comprises poly( l -lactide) (PLLA) matrix and surface-modified magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles by ferric chloride (FeCl 3 ) and tannic acid (TA) (FeCl 3 –TA/MgO). This design can fully combine the printability and shape-memory effect of PLLA, the excellent bioactivity, and the outstanding photothermal effect of MgO nanoparticles modified by FeCl 3 –TA. The PLLA/(FeCl 3 –TA/MgO) composite scaffolds with a homogeneously porous structure are further fabricated by 4D printing. The synergetic presence of components and fabrication process can endow the prepared composite scaffolds with enhanced mechanical properties and stable NIR light-induced shape-memory effect, as well as antibacterial and antioxidant properties. With 5 wt% FeCl 3 –TA/MgO particles, the scaffold not only has a compress modulus of 0.93 MPa, which is 4 times that of a pristine PLLA scaffold, but also achieves a shape fixation ratio of 95.7% and a shape recovery ratio of 80.9% under NIR light irradiation at 2 w cm −2 . The PLLA/(FeCl 3 –TA/MgO) composites have great potential for application in the field of bone tissue engineering scaffolds.

Electrospinning technique has attracted considerable attention in fabrication of cellulose nanofibrils or nanocellulose membranes, in which polycaprolactone (PCL) could be used as a promising precursor to prepare various cellulose nanofibril membranes for periodontal tissue regeneration. Conventional bio-membranes and cellulose films used in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) can prevent the downgrowth of epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and connective tissue in the area of tooth root but have limitations related to osteogenic and antimicrobial properties. Cellulose nanofibrils can be used as an ideal drug delivery material to encapsulate and carry some drugs. In this study, magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles-incorporated PCL/gelatin core-shell nanocellulose periodontal membranes were fabricated using coaxial electrospinning technique, which was termed as Coaxial-MgO. The membranes using single-nozzle electrospinning technique, namely Blending-MgO and Blending-Blank, were used as control. The morphology and physicochemical property of these nanocellulose membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrum of X-ray (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), contact angle, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that the incorporation of MgO nanoparticles barely affected the morphology and mechanical property of nanocellulose membranes. Coaxial-MgO with core-shell fiber structure had better hydrophilic property and sustainable release of magnesium ion (Mg2+). CCK-8 cell proliferation and EdU staining demonstrated that Coaxial-MgO membranes showed better human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) proliferation rates compared with the other group due to its gelatin shell with great biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. SEM and immunofluorescence assay results illustrated that the Coaxial-MgO scaffold significantly enhanced hPDLSCs adhesion. In vitro osteogenic and antibacterial properties showed that Coaxial-MgO membrane enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, formation of mineralized nodules, osteogenic-related genes [ALP, collagen type 1 (COL1), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2)], and high antibacterial properties toward Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (A. a) when compared with controls. Our findings suggested that MgO nanoparticles-incorporated coaxial electrospinning PCL-derived nanocellulose periodontal membranes might have great prospects for periodontal tissue regeneration.
