N-Halamine-based antibacterial materials are widely used due to their excellent characteristics. However, the N–Cl bonds in N-halamine-based materials are not stable under UV light irradiation so that they are difficult to recover and reuse. Here, a kind of N-halamine-immobilized Fe3O4@SiO2@TiO2(F@S@T-Cl) nanoparticles were prepared. In addition, the UV stability and regeneration capacity were also studied after variable time exposure to UV light. The results showed that nanoparticles have great antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Meanwhile, the N–Cl bond in the nanocomposite showed outstanding storage stability under UV light irradiation and good regeneration ability; the material can realize cyclic utilization and solve the problem of secondary pollution of the antibacterial material. It provides a broader application prospect for the recyclable N-halamine antibacterial material.

To attain the high dispersion and strong interfacial bonding of TiO 2 in fluororubber (FKM), a novel “core–shell” structured SiO 2 @TiO 2 nanofillers was designed and synthesized by in-situ polymerization and grafting modification method. For the “core–shell” structured SiO 2 @TiO 2 nanospheres , the rough and irregular silica shell can improve the surface area of the SiO 2 @TiO 2 filler and realize the mechanical riveting with the FKM, which shows a significant mechanical properties enhancement function. Compared with the pristine FKM, the tear strength , tensile strength , hardness, modulus at 100% strain, modulus at 300% strain, and storage modulus at −100 °C of FKM/SiO 2 @TiO 2 enhanced by 42.4%, 196.9%, 10%, 24.4%, 66.7%, and 15.5%, respectively. The sample’s electrical, thermal, and color properties were also improved and showed the highest haze and lowest light transmissions. Such a simple and effective method of preparing “core–shell” structured SiO 2 @TiO 2 nanofillers provides great potential in industrial applications.

The self-cleaning coating has both superhydrophobic physical and photocatalytic chemical self-cleaning properties, which has attracted the wide attention of researchers in recent years. First, the flower-like hollow SiO2@TiO2 spheres with oxygen vacancies (rFHSTs) were prepared by the liquid-phase reduction method, in which several different functional components were integrated. Meanwhile, the influence mechanisms of the physical structure and chemical composition on the photocatalytic properties are discussed in detail. The results proved that rFHSTs exhibited the enhanced photoresponse range and photocatalytic degradation performance in visible light because of the synergistic effect of the microstructure (internal cavity, 3D flower-like nanosheet), SiO2/TiO2 heterojunction structure, and oxygen vacancies. After that, superhydrophobic modified rFHSTs were used as fillers to fabricate PVA/PFDTS-rFHSTs composite coatings with both physical and chemical self-cleaning properties. The self-cleaning performances and principles of the composite coating were examined and explored. The results showed that the low surface energy of the hydrophobic chain segment, the inherent particle effect, and the photocatalytic activity of rFHSTs were responsible for the superhydrophobic and photocatalytic effects, finally endowing the composite coating with self-cleaning performance. In short, this study is profound for the development and application of self-cleaning coatings with both physical and chemical performances.

SiO 2 @TiO 2 -Ag (STA) microspheres decorated with Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared and assembled into the photoanode. The photoanode composed of STA microspheres and TiO 2 nanoparticles (P25) was prepared by doctor blade method. UV–vis measurement indicates that the introduction of a few STA microspheres observably enhances the light scattering and capturing ability of the photoanode. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the DSSCs with 2wt% STA photoanode increased to 7.4% from 4.3% comparing with pure P25 TiO 2 nanoparticles. The configuration DSSCs have the maximum short circuit current density ( J sc ) of 16.0 mA cm −2 and open-circuit voltage ( V oc ) of 0.780 V, which are significantly higher than the pure TiO 2 DSSCs. The significant improvement of the DSSCs performance can be due to the synergistic effect of the superior light scattering of STA and the localized surface plasma resonance (LSPR) effect of Ag NPs modified on the microspheres surface.

High-performance devices of quartz glass demand an atomic surface, which induces a challenge for chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) with a high material removal rate (MRR). Moreover, traditional CMP usually employs toxic and corrosive slurries, leading to the pollution of the environment. To overcome these challenges, a novel green photocatalytic CMP is proposed. In the CMP, SiO2@TiO2 core–shell abrasives were developed, and the CMP slurry included the developed abrasives, sodium carbonate, hydrogen peroxide and sorbitol. After photocatalytic CMP, the surface roughness Sa of quartz glass is 0.185 nm, with a scanning area of 50 × 50 μm2, and the MRR is 8.64 μm h−1. To the best of our knowledge, the MRR is the highest on such a big area of atomic surface for quartz glass. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals that SiO2@TiO2 core–shell abrasives were used as photocatalysts motivated by simulated solar light, generating electrons and holes and producing hydroxyl radicals through hydrogen peroxide. As a result, OH− could combine with Si atoms on the surface of quartz glass, forming Si–OH–Si bonds. Then the formed bonds were removed based on the balance between chemical and mechanical functions. The proposed CMP, developed SiO2@TiO2 abrasives and slurry provide new insights to achieve an atomic surface of quartz glass with a high MRR.

Cotton fabrics are susceptible to contamination in daily use. Herein, this study developed a scalable and benign strategy to impart superhydrophobic and photocatalytic properties to cotton fabrics by impregnating SiO 2 –TiO 2 Janus particles (SiO 2 –TiO 2 JPs) and silicone elastomer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). SiO 2 –TiO 2 Janus particles were synthesized by Pickering template method. The obtained cotton fabrics exhibited good superhydrophobic properties with a water contact angle (WCA) of 155° as well as mechanical and chemical stability. The modified fabrics maintained their superhydrophobic properties against 30 cycles of mechanical abrasion, 15 cycles of tape peeling, and 24 h of UV aging. They also had good resistance to n-hexane, acetone, acid/alkali liquids. The degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B (RhB) was up to 63% after 6 h of UV irradiation and still 48% after 5 cycles of degradation. The facile approach in favor of large-scale preparation showed promising potential for wide application of flexible, superhydrophobic cotton fabrics with self-cleaning performance.

At present, the polymer flocculation technology has been widely used in the treatment of oil sand tailings. However, the current composite flocculant still has the problems of low flocculation efficiency and serious secondary pollution after using. In this article, cationic composite flocculant SiO2-TiO2-P(AM-DMC) with self-degrading characteristics was prepared by the surface photoinitiated polymerization technique. Above all, in order to study the synthesis process of SiO2-TiO2-P(AM-DMC), cationic composite flocculant was characterized by FTIR, TG, TEM, XPS, etc. Furthermore, the central composite design (CCD) and response surface methodology (RSM) were used to optimize the preparation parameters of the cationic composite flocculant. And the optimization results of preparation parameters of cationic composite flocculant showed that the optimal preparation parameters of SiO2-TiO2-P(AM-DMC) were as follows: mDMC: mAM = 5, monomer concentration was 35% and reaction time was 100 min. Ultimately, the flocculation parameters of SiO2-TiO2-P(AM-DMC) were optimized by CCD and RSM. Moreover, the optimization results of flocculation parameters of cationic composite flocculant showed that the optimal flocculation parameters of SiO2-TiO2-P(AM-DMC) were as follows: pH = 5, flocculant dosage was 30 ppm, kaolin concentration was 1.36%. In summary, this work had greatly enriched the knowledge of oil sand tailings treatment, and had the extremely important reference significance for realizing the parameter regulation of high-efficiency flocculation of oil sand tailings.

Biochar-coupled Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 /TiO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 composites were successfully constructed through simple sol–gel and calcination methods. The composites efficiently removed high-concentration toxic tetracycline (TC) by means of ·OH and · \({\rm O}_2^{-}\) , whose removal rate exhibited 91.88% during 3 h, and the degradation rate constant reached up to 0.0068 min −1 . The excellent performance can be attributed to the high specific surface area, enhanced visible light response, the introduction of magnetic nanoparticles and biochars expediting charge transfer, Z-scheme heterojunction enhancing the spatial separation of photo-generate carriers and, importantly extraordinary adsorption capacity of 147.96 mg g −1 . Moreover, the composites showed the most excellent efficiency under the calcination temperature of 450 ℃, and exhibited good stability with tolerance to a wide range of pH and anions. Interestingly, a synergistic photocatalytic effect was discovered in the TC/Cr(VI) combined pollution systems, resulting in significantly improved removal of Cr(VI). Besides, the photocatalytic mechanism and degradation path of tetracycline were also elucidated. All these findings suggested the as-synthesized catalyst was an excellent photocatalyst for removal of TC/Cr(VI)-contaminated water. Graphical Abstract

Using low-cost precipitated silica (SiO 2 ) as the carrier, a ternary SiO 2 -TiO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 composite photocatalyst was prepared via the sol-gel method associated with a wet-grinding process. The as-prepared composite exhibits photocatalytic hydrogen production and pollutant degradation performance under solar-like irradiation. The effect of SiO 2 carrier on the properties of the heterostructure between TiO 2 and g-C 3 N 4 (CN) was systematically studied. It is found that SiO 2 has important effects on promoting the interaction between TiO 2 and CN. The particle size of TiO 2 and CN was obviously reduced during the calcination process due to the effects of SiO 2 . Especially, the TiO 2 particles exhibit monodispersed state with particle size below 10 nm (quantum dots), resulting in the improvement of the contact area and the interaction between TiO 2 and CN, and leading to the formation of efficient TiO 2 /CN Z-scheme heterostructure in SiO 2 -TiO 2 /CN. Besides, the introduction of SiO 2 can increase the specific surface area and light absorption of SiO 2 -TiO 2 /CN, further promoting the photocatalytic reaction. As expected, the optimum SiO 2 -TiO 2 /CN composite exhibits 12.3, 3.1 and 2.9 times higher photocatalytic hydrogen production rate than that of SiO 2 -TiO 2 , CN and TiO 2 /CN under solar-like irradiation, while the photocatalytic active component in SiO 2 -TiO 2 /CN is only about 60 wt%. Moreover, the rhodamine B degradation rate of SiO 2 -TiO 2 /CN is also higher than that of SiO 2 -TiO 2 , CN and TiO 2 /CN.

The cellulose acetate (CA)/SiO 2 -TiO 2 hybrid microsphere composite aerogel films were successfully fabricated via water vapor-induced phase inversion of CA solution and simultaneous hydrolysis/condensation of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) and tetrabutyl titanate (TBT) at room temperature. Micro-nano hierarchical structure was constructed on the surface of the film. The film could separate nano-sized surfactant-stabilized water-in-oil emulsions only under gravity. The flux of the film for the emulsion separation was up to 667 L m −2 h −1 , while the separation efficiency was up to 99.99 wt%. Meanwhile, the film exhibited excellent stability during multiple cycles. Moreover, the film performed excellent photo-degradation performance under UV light due to the photocatalytic ability of TiO 2 . Facile preparation, good separation and potential biodegradation maked the CA/SiO 2 -TiO 2 hybrid microsphere composite aerogel films a candidate in oil/water separation application.

In this study we used a high-temperature steam-induced hydrolysis method to obtain a fluorinated OH/SiO 2 -TiO 2 /polyethersulfone (PES) composite hollow fiber membrane for CO 2 capture. The purpose of grafting SiO 2 and TiO 2 on the surface of PES by hydrolyzing silicon precursors and titanium precursors at high temperature, is to improve the alkali corrosion resistance and hydrophobicity of the PES membrane. The OH/SiO 2 -TiO 2 /PES composite hollow fiber membranes prepared by the high-temperature steam-induced hydrolysis method and the graft coating method were measured by SEM, EDS , FTIR, WCA, AFM , XRD and XPS in order to characterize the morphology and structure of the prepared membranes. In the CO 2 /CH 4 separation performance test experiment, the OH/SiO 2 -TiO 2 /PES membrane prepared by the high-temperature steam hydrolysis method showed better separation performance than the original PES membrane. The effects of absorbent flow rate, absorbent concentration and feed gas flow rate on CO 2 flux and CO 2 /CH 4 were selectivity investigated. When the flow rate of the absorbent (DEA) reached 16 L/h, the flow rate of the feed gas (CO 2 /CH 4 = 40 : 60) was 30 ml/min, the concentration of the absorbent was 1 mol/L, The CH 4 concentration was 99.88 % and the optimal separation factor was as high as 554.89. In general, the results obtained in this work may provide promising insights into the use of fluorinated OH/SiO 2 -TiO 2 /PES composite membranes for carbon capture and CO 2 /CH 4 separation in GLMC application.

Flexible and hierarchical nanostructured Pd/SiO2-TiO2 nanofibrous catalytic membranes were fabricated via combining electrospinning technique and a two-step hydrothermal method. The size and distribution of TiO2 nanorods immobilised on SiO2 nanofibrous membranes can be regulated via adjusting the dosage of TiCl3 solution in the first step hydrothermal process. When using an optimal TiCl3 solution dosage of 0.2 mL, a hierarchical structured Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2 nanofibrous catalytic membrane with uniformly dense TiO2 nanorods loaded on SiO2 nanofibers is obtained, and still shows good tensile strength and flexibility. The catalytic activity of Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2 increases 5 times as compared to Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0 in the reduction of p-nitrophenol (PNP) to p-aminophenol (PAP). The modification with TiO2 nanorods can provide more surface areas for loading the Pd nanoparticles, thereby increased active sites. The three-dimensional open-cell network stacked and assembled by thousands of SiO2 nanofibers and TiO2 nanorods enhances the contact between the reactants and Pd nanoparticles. Both aspects contribute the superior catalytic activity of Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2. Furthermore, a continuous and complete conversion of PNP to PAP can be stably operated over 240 min in a gravity-driven catalytic membrane reactor constructed by Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2.
