The alumina ceramics with high compressive strength were prepared by pressureless sintering, and the kaolinite and calcium carbonate were added as Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 –CaO sintering aids. The effects of sintering temperature on the volume shrinkage, bulk density, water absorption and compressive strength of the alumina ceramics were studied. The phase composition, crystal cell parameters, average grain size and microstructure of the ceramic were analyzed by XRD, SEM and EDS. The results show that the lattice tends to packed with the increase of sintering temperature. The bonding between grains is the most compact after sintering at 1700°C. The volume shrinkage increases with the increase of sintering temperature. The water absorption of alumina ceramics after sintering at 1700°C reaches the minimum value of 0.06%. The bulk density and compressive strength increase first and then decrease with the increase of sintering temperature. At 1700°C, optimized mechanical properties of alumina ceramics is obtained, with a bulk density of 3.80 g/cm 3 and a compressive strength of 1323 MPa.

A sensitive and robust fluorescent assay of 6-MP is described which relies on the facile assembly of a fluorescence nanoprobe by design of silica nanosphere encapsulated CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QDs) as scaffold, coupling with chemically tethered folic acid (FA)–protected silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) that function as responsive element. In this way a stable ternary core-shell-satellite nanostructure with dual-emission signals can be established. On binding to the target molecules, 6-MP, FA molecules initially occupied by AgNPs are liberated to give dose-dependent fluorescence emission, which can further form a self-calibration ratiometric fluorescence assay using CdTe QDs as an internal reference. The nanoprobe color vividly changes from red to blue, enabling the direct visual detection. The linear concentration range is 0.15~50 μM with the detection limit of 67 nM. By virtue of the favorable selectivity and robust assays, the nanoprobe was applied to 6-MP detection in urine samples, with recoveries from 97.3 to 106% and relative standard deviations (RSD) less than 5%.

NTAamide(C8) exhibits high selectivity for the extraction of Pu(IV) across a wide range of nitric acid concentrations. To separate trace Pu(IV) from radioactive liquid stream generated during the PUREX process in spent nuclear fuel reprocessing, a novel silica-polymer-based adsorbent, NTAamide(C8)/SiO 2 -P, was synthesized via vacuum impregnation using NTAamide(C8) as the extractant and SiO 2 -P as the support. The adsorption performance of Pu(IV) were systematically evaluated. Batch experiments revealed that adsorption equilibrium was achieved within 2 h, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 143.2 mg/g for Pu(IV). The material demonstrated high selectivity for Pu(IV) and exhibited excellent radiation resistance and hydrolytic stability. The adsorption mechanisms were further elucidated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, confirming the formation of 1:1 complexes between NTAamide(C8) and the metal ions. Column experiments using actual uranium product solution from the PUREX process verified the material's performance in trace Pu(IV) removal. After column treatment, the Pu content in the uranium product solution was reduced to below 10 Bq/gU, with no significant loss of uranium. These results demonstrate that NTAamide(C8)/SiO 2 -P is a promising adsorbent for the efficient and selective separation of Pu(IV) from radioactive liquid stream under a wide range of nitric acid concentrations.

The sluggish advancement in technology for the recovery of rare earth elements from secondary resources can be largely attributed to an inadequate understanding of the thermodynamic properties of cerium oxide-based slag systems. This study systematically investigates the phase equilibrium of the Ce 2 O 3 -CaO-SiO 2 -5 wt% MgO quaternary system at 1500 °C and 1600 °C. High-temperature equilibrium experiments followed by rapid quenching were conducted, and phase assemblages were characterized by XRD, SEM and EPMA. For the first time, the results accurately determined the isothermal liquidus lines for the first time and identified the stable regions of key phases such as SiO 2 , Ce 2 Si 2 O 7 , CaO·2Ce 2 O 3 ·3SiO 2 , CaO·Ce 2 O 3 ·2SiO 2 , the Ce-doped dicalcium silicate (i.e., (Ca, Ce) 2 SiO 4 ), and the monticellite (i.e., CaMgSiO 4 ), as well as their coexistence relationships. Furthermore, the isothermal sections at 1500 °C and 1600 °C were constructed based on experimental data and fundamental thermodynamic principles. This study not only fills a critical gap in the thermodynamic database for rare-earth slag systems but also provides a theoretical basis for optimizing slag design and enhancing cerium recovery from waste slags.

CoPt-Co hybrids were successfully supported on amino modified SiO 2 nanospheres by a chemical reduction method at a temperature of 278 K. The solid carrier i.e. amino modified SiO 2 , provides numerous anchoring sites for the metal nanoparticles (NPs) to improve the dispersion while reducing the size of metal NPs. The supported NPs displayed a narrow particle size distribution on the SiO 2 surface with an average diameter of 12 nm. The XRD results alongside with the binary alloy phase diagram suggest that the resulted NPs are bimetallic, composed of CoPt and amorphous Co. Among the prepared materials, the solid with the specific composition of SiO 2 @Pt 0.1 Co 0.9 was proved to be effective catalyst for ammonia borane (AB) hydrolysis in aqueous solution. The turnover frequency (TOF) value of the supported nanocatalyst was 25.59 mol H 2 ⋅ min − 1 ⋅ mol M − 1 , almost twice as that of unsupported Pt 0.1 Co 0.9 NPs while the activation energy was 37.05 kJ mol −1 . Furthermore, the SiO 2 @Pt 0.1 Co 0.9 composite manifested high catalytic activity even after five cycles of reuse.

In this work, an original amphiphilic copolymer P(PEG-PDMS-KH570) combined with SiO 2 nanoparticles (SiO 2 NPs) was utilized to prepare polyether sulfone (PES) nanocomposite ultrafiltration (UF) membrane with enhanced antifouling performance. The enrichment of the organic-inorganic modifier P(PEG-PDMS-KH570)@SiO 2 were realized at the same time as the formation of PES UF membrane via sol-gel non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) process. The interaction between the copolymer P(PEG-PDMS-KH570) and SiO 2 NPs furnished a stable and effective antifouling PES UF membrane. Surface morphology, chemical composition characterization and wetting property measurements confirmed the segregation and distribution of the nanocomposite modifier. The multi-defense mechanism from fouling resistance to fouling release of the nanocomposite membranes was investigated by setting bovine serum albumin (BSA) aqueous solution as a model foulant. The antifouling properties of the modified membranes, especially for the PES/T@SiO 2 ∼4% membrane, were effectively improved. The flux decline rate of PES/T@SiO 2 ∼4% membrane was as low as 15.6%, and the flux recover ratio was up to 99.0%. Moreover, the modified membranes also possessed remarkable antifouling stability. Results of this work provide a facile method to construct a hierarchical and heterogeneous membrane surface that could achieve the multi-defense mechanism in efficient water treatment.

The reported ionic liquid (IL)-based magnetic effervescent tablets are a result of direct addition of ILs and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). In effervescent reaction-enhanced microextraction procedures, the dissociation between ILs and MNPs easily leads to loss of ILs due to aqueous solubility, thereby decreasing the extraction efficiency. Herein, we attached a hydrophilic IL ([BMIM]Br) onto the surface of NiFe2O4@SiO2@polyaniline (NiFe2O4@SiO2@PANI-IL) to prepare novel core–shell-like multi-layer nanocomposites. Magnetic effervescent tablets were composed of Na2CO3 as an alkaline source, tartaric acid as an acidic source and as-synthesized nanocomposites as an extractant. The nanocomposites were used in an effervescent reaction-enhanced magnetic solid-phase extraction (ERMSE) for the extraction of four organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) in fruit juices prior to HPLC-DAD detection. Under optimized conditions, this method provided low limits of detection (0.06–0.17 μg L−1), high recoveries (80.6–97.3%) and excellent precision (1.1–5.2%) for OPP quantification in five fruit juices. Notably, the three-layer core–shell nanocomposites were efficiently recycled for at least eight extraction cycles with a recovery loss of <10%. The novelty of this study lies in: (1) for the first time, the ILs-based hybrid magnetic nanocomposites were prepared with appropriate pore size/volume and more active sites for OPPs; (2) the combination of the nanocomposites with effervescent tablets realizes rapid dispersion of CO2 bubbles, and convenient magnetic separation/collection into one synchronous step; and (3) due to there being no requirement of electrical power, it is feasible for use in field conditions. Thus, the ERMSE method has excellent potential for conventional monitoring of trace-level OPPs in complex fruit juice matrices.

In this work, a novel catalyst of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @Yb 2 O 3 was prepared and the degradation of thymol in reverse osmosis concentrate using ozonation was explored. The operational parameters, such as ozone dosage (8–48 mg·min − 1 ), initial thymol concentration (20–100 mg·L − 1 ), initial pH value (3–11), and catalyst Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @Yb 2 O 3 dosage (0.2–1.0 g), were studied focusing on the thymol degradation and COD removal. The results indicated that the increase in ozone dosage, initial pH value, and Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @Yb 2 O 3 dosage accelerated the thymol degradation and COD removal, while the increase in initial thymol concentration hampered the effect of ozonation. A pathway of thymol degradation by catalytic ozonation was proposed based on the intermediates detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer and ion chromatography . This paper can provide basic data and technical alternative for pollutant removal from reverse osmosis concentrate by ozonation.

The polypropylene (PP) fibers were modified by silane coupling agent (KH570) or synergistically modified by KH570 and nano-SiO2 in this paper. The modification effect of PP fibers was evaluated by SEM and FTIR. The reinforcing effect of PP fibers and the modified PP fibers on sulphoaluminate cement-gypsum composites (SGC) was investigated. The results show that KH570 can undergo an autohydrolysis reaction and wrap on the surface of the PP fibers, which makes the hydrophilicity of PP fibers improved. Nano-SiO2 can further improve the hydrophilicity and roughness of the PP fiber surface by polycondensation reaction with KH570. KH570 and nano-SiO2 synergistically modified PP (KH570-SiO2-PP) fibers obviously increase the compressive strength and flexural strength of the hardened SGC compared with PP fibers or KH570 modified PP (KH570-PP) fibers. The SEM images show that PP-KH570-SiO2 fibers have better adhesion with the matrix than PP fibers and KH570- PP fibers.

The fabrication of highly active and free-standing surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates in a simple and low-cost manner has been a crucial and urgent challenge in recent years. Herein, SiO2 nanofiber substrates modified with size-tunable Ag nanoparticles were prepared by the combination of electrospinning and in situ chemical reduction. The results demonstrate the presence and uniform adsorption of Ag nanoparticles on the SiO2 matrix surface. The free-standing composite nanofibrous substrates show high-performance SERS response toward 4-mercaptophenol and 4-mercaptobenzoic acid, and the detection limit can be as low as 10–10 mol/L. Most importantly, the as-prepared substrate as a versatile SERS platform can realize label-free detection of bio-macromolecules of bacteria, i.e., Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Furthermore, the substrates also possess outstanding antibacterial activities against S. aureus and E. coli. Briefly, the significance of this study is that size-tunable Ag nanoparticles can be decorated on SiO2 nanofiber surfaces with triethanolamine as a bridging and reducing agent through a one-pot reaction, and the as-prepared nanofibrous membranes are expected to act as a candidate for label-free SERS detection as well as antibacterial dressing.

The radome and antenna windows of aerospace aircrafts highly require multifunctional materials that are thermal stable, capable of wave-transparent and have excellent thermal insulation performance. Due to the SiO 2 aerogel with high thermal stability, low dielectric constant and ultralow thermal conductivity , they are considered as promising high-temperature thermal insulating and wave-transparent materials. In this work, the SiBNO fibers with good wave-transparent performance were used as reinforcements to prepare SiO 2 aerogel composites (SiBNO f /SiO 2 ACs) by sol-gel impregnating and supercritical drying method. The prepared SiBNO f /SiO 2 ACs exhibit integrated performances of excellent fire resistance, high-temperature stability (1100 °C in Air), high mechanical properties (compressive strength is 1.89 ± 0.14 MPa at 40 % strain and bending strength is 1.93 ± 0.03 MPa), ultralow thermal conductivity (0.029 W m −1 K −1 at 25 °C and 0.051 W m −1 K −1 at 1100 °C) and good wave-transparent property (dielectric constant<1.45, loss tangent<0.01 in 4–18 GHz). All of these characteristics are related to the unique nanoporous structure of SiO 2 aerogel and intrinsic nature of SiBNO fibers and SiO 2 aerogel. The prepared multifunctional SiBNO f /SiO 2 ACs have great potential to be used in harsh environment for thermal insulation and wave-transparent.

In situ SiO 2 growth with DA-g-C 3 N 4 co-doping yields hybrid crosslinked PA layer. • Compound strategy mitigates DA-g-C 3 N 4 aggregation in PA layer. • Achieved simultaneous gains in Mg 2+ /Li + selectivity and permeability performance. • MgCl 2 rejection stayed >93% over 160 h, demonstrating excellent long-term stability. It is often difficult for thin-film composite (TFC) nanofiltration (NF) membranes to balance high separation selectivity and high permeability, and the contradiction between the two will lead to their overall performance constraints. In this study, a dual-phase regulation strategy is proposed, which adopts the in-situ sol method and the composite strategy of introducing two-dimensional materials for the preparation of organic-inorganic cross-linked polyamide (PA) NF membranes. A trimesoyl chloride (TMC) organic phase solution containing tetraethyl orthosilicate was first introduced onto the polyethersulfone (PES) substrate, followed by contact with a polyethyleneimine (PEI) aqueous phase solution containing dopamine-functionalized carbon nitride (DA-g-C 3 N 4 ), during which silicon dioxide (SiO 2 )/Si–O–Si domains were generated in situ within the PA layer. These domains restricted the free volume of the PA layer, narrowed the effective pore-size distribution, and suppressed nonselective defects, while the embedded DA-g-C 3 N 4 improved the compatibility between the nanofillers and the PA layer, thereby producing P-1Si-0.025CN membranes with an effective pore size of 0.4 nm. Compared with the P-NF membrane prepared by reverse interfacial polymerization of TMC and PEI directly on the PES substrate, Mg 2+ /Li + separation factor (SF) increased to 67.2 (Mg 2+ /Li + mass ratio is 20), salt solution flux was 27.1 LMH, separation and permeation capacity of mixed salt was enhanced, salt solution flux has increased by 4 times, and the SF has increased by 7 times, Mg 2+ /Li + ratio decreased from 20 in feed to 0.71 in permeation process. Moreover, it exhibited excellent separation performance in diluted salt lake brine, with an Mg 2+ rejection rate exceeding 98%, and it also exhibited high fouling resistance and long-term stability.
