Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanometer particles (MNPS) with a diameter of 30–40 nm and coated by ammoniated silicon dioxides were developed by sol–gel method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern indicates that the Fe 3 O 4 is wrapped in the amorphous SiO 2 , and the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis confirmed the NH 2 group had been successfully introduced onto the surface of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 nanoparticles. The main factors related to the immobilization process of pectinase onto the magnetic support were optimized by multi-factor orthogonal experiments, and the recommended combination is that 3% glutaraldehyde (coupling agent), pH = 8.0, 50 °C, and cross-linking time 8 h. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and FT-IR analyses confirmed that the pectinase had been immobilized onto the surface of the amino modified nanoparticles. The storage stability and reusability of the pectinase were enhanced by the immobilization that 64.4% of the total starting activity was retrieved after 7 recycling batches and only about 21.1% of the total activity was lost after 30-day storage. For the application of the immobilized pectinase, the optimal pH and temperature were 8.5 and 55 °C, respectively.

In this work, amphiphilic Janus F-SiO 2 -NH 2 particles were prepared through step-by-step modification of SiO 2 particles inlaid in and released from paraffin microspheres by fluorosilane and aminosilane respectively, and further modified waterborne epoxy (WEP) coating. The morphology, structure, composition, and surface wettability of the prepared particles as well as the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance were investigated. The results indicate that the modified coating gained the improved mechanical properties and anti-corrosion performance. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests show that after immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution for 15 days, the impedance modulus at low frequency of F-SiO 2 -NH 2 modified WEP coating was above 10 6 Ω∙cm 2 , two orders of magnitude higher than that of WEP coating. The amphiphilic Janus F-SiO 2 -NH 2 particles not only improved the interfacial compatibility and penetration resistance through the good dispersibility, hydrophobic groups and cross-linking with epoxy resin matrix, but also oriented adsorbed on steel surface to form protective hydrophobic layers. This work provides a simple design approach for constructing highly corrosion-resistant waterborne coatings, which has a certain promoting effect on the development of environmentally friendly high-performance anti-corrosion coatings.

Firstly, the SiO2 microspheres were prepared by Stӧber method, and then modified by 3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (KH-540) to introduce –NH2 onto the microspheres. Then, SiO2-NH2 microspheres were mixed into polysulfone casting solution, and SiO2-NH2/PSF composite membrane was prepared by the phase conversion method. On this basis, the functional adsorbent SiO2-NH2/PSF-g-PMAA was prepared by grafting polymerization of methacrylic acid (MAA) as a functional monomer using –NH2/S2O82− surface initiation system. The samples were characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and weighing method. The adsorption properties of amlodipine (ADP) by functional adsorbents were investigated, and the adsorption mechanism was further studied. The results show that the adsorption reaches equilibrium at 180 min, and the adsorption kinetics can be well fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption capacity of SiO2-NH2/PSF-g-PMAA for amlodipine in methanol with 1.4 mg/mL at 15 °C is 137 mg/g. The adsorption ability increases with the decrease of ionic strength and temperature via the hydrogen bond and ionic interactions, and the adsorption of ADP by SiO2-NH2/PSF-g-PMAA is consistent with the D-R adsorption isotherm model. Thermodynamic parameters imply that adsorption is a spontaneous and exothermic process.

High-internal-phase water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions generated in situ have garnered considerable attention as novel profile control systems. However, conventional emulsifiers are unreactive and poorly dispersed in water, necessitating large dosages and resulting in poor injectivity. In this study, we synthesized amphiphilic nanoparticles (SiO2–NH2–DAC NPs) containing amine and long-chain alkyl groups using a one-pot method and investigated the stabilized emulsion properties. Our results indicated that W/O emulsions with a water-to-oil ratio (WOR) of 7:3 to 8:2 could be prepared with just 0.1 wt% of SiO2–NH2–DAC NPs under neutral and basic conditions, with demulsification occurring under acidic conditions (pH = 2.1), demonstrating the pH-responsiveness of the W/O emulsions. The emulsion viscosity increased from 150 to 2555 mPa·s at different WORs. An additional 18.7% oil recovery was achieved using SiO2–NH2–DAC NPs in a heterogeneous core, highlighting their potential as a promising profile control candidate.

Graphical A novel, magnetically recoverable, and stable catalyst, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 /HPW@CS/HPW, has been prepared and a high methyl oleate yield of 93.2 % was achieved in the esterification of methanol and oleic acid. A magnetically retrievable and stable composite, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 /HPW@CS/HPW, in which H 3 PW 12 O 40 (abbreviated as HPW hereafter) was successfully anchored onto the surface of a cross-linked chitosan coating on magnetic Fe 3 O 4 cores, has been prepared by means of chemical bonding between the amino and HPW components. The resultant composites were characterized by different physicochemical techniques, such as TEM, SEM, FTIR, and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). An improved synthesis of methyl oleate from oleic acid and methanol was observed with the as-prepared material as catalyst with easy recovery by simply using an external magnet. A yield of 93.2 % of methyl oleate was achieved under the optimal reaction conditions, that is, a 20:1 molar ratio of methanol to oleic acid and 0.4 g catalyst at 60 °C for 4 h. It was demonstrated that improved catalytic performance and facilitated separation were simultaneously achieved in the esterification reactions as a result of the core@shell structures in which stabilized HPW and magnetic cores are integrated into one body.

A new fluorescence probe constructed with a multifunctional nanocomposite, Fe3O4–ZnS:Mn2+/SiO2–NH2, was successfully synthesized and then used to detect folic acid in real serum samples. The nanocomposite was characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and physical property measurement system. With the addition of analyte, the Fe3O4–ZnS:Mn2+/SiO2–NH2 composite and folic acid formed a new complex because cross-linking of the amino and carboxyl groups participated in the condensation reaction. Then, the energy of quantum dots was transferred to the complex and led to quenching of the fluorescence. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity decreased significantly as the concentration of folic acid increased, and the fluorescence quenching ratio F0/F was related to the folic acid concentration in the range from 0.1 to 5 μg mL–1. This method was used for detecting folic acid in real serum samples and gave recoveries in the range of 89.0%–96.0%, with relative standard deviations of 1.2%–3.9%. The detection limit was 9.6 ng mL–1 (S/N = 3). These satisfactory and simple results showed the great potential of this fluorescence probe in the field of pharmaceutical analysis.

An efficient way to assemble Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 nanocomposite has been developed by coupling (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane onto surface of core-shell structure through facile impregnation of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 decorated with amino groups. The key step during the synthesis involves the incorporation of organic fluorophore and amines are treated with 1,8-naphthalic anhydride. The achieved hybrid inorganic-organic nanoparticle gives rise to blue emissions and shows enough stability. Furthermore, Cu 2+ can be recognized by the organic building block via coordination reaction and the “on-off” quenching effect is observed. The nanosensor provides a response concentration range (1–6 μM) to Cu 2+ with the detection limit of 0.65 μM. Owing to the magnetic properties , the hybrid nanoprobe can be easily retrieved from aqueous solution for repeated uses via magnetic separation (35 s). This approach will offer an alternative way for designing novel detection systems in biological related fields.

As the power density of electronic devices continues to increase, traditional coolants (e.g., water and ethylene glycol) are unable to meet the demand for efficient heat dissipation. This study prepared graphene oxide (GO)/aminated iron (III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 ) nanofluids (NFs, abbreviated as GF NFs) with different mass fractions, and systematically investigated their stability, thermophysical properties, and heat transfer enhancement (HTE) mechanism under magnetic field modulation. Experimental results show the following: The viscosity of NFs increases with rising particle concentration and decreases with increasing temperature; Conductivity increases with increasing concentration and temperature. For heat transfer performance, the convective heat transfer coefficient (h) of the NFs increased significantly with flow rate. Adding 0.05 mass% GF to the base fluid, the maximum HTE of GF NFs reached 120%. reducing the device temperature by 2.2 °C. Under a 1460 G magnetic field, the 0.1mass% GF NF reduced the device temperature by 2.6 °C compared to the base fluid. Combined with numerical simulations, this study reveals that the Brownian motion of nanoparticles (NPs) and magnetically induced micro-convection synergistically disrupt the thermal boundary layer, thereby enhancing the heat transfer performance of NFs. This study provides novel functionalized NF materials and regulation strategies for the intelligent thermal management of high-power electronic devices.

The environmental impact of the mining industry requires efficient and eco-friendly technologies to mitigate the presence of mineral flotation reagents (MFRs) in mineral processing wastewater (MPW) prior to their discharge into the environment. In this work, for the first time, a robust, easily separable and reusable biocatalyst, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac, was used for the degradation of a novel mineral flotation reagent 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ). Under optimized conditions, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac achieved 89.2% 8-HQ degradation efficiency within 6 h. The effect of the main constituents of MPW on 8-HQ degradation, including metal ions, organic solvents, surfactant, metal chelator and flotation frother was evaluated. The Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac also displayed favorable degradation efficiency of 8-HQ in real lead–zinc mine water. The biocatalyst could be easily recovered and had a satisfactory reusability, retaining 64.5% of 8-HQ degradation efficiency in the sixth reaction cycle. Identification of intermediate products revealed that Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac mediated reaction predominantly generated various structural 8-HQ oligomers/polymers. A potential degradation pathway for 8-HQ was speculated as follows: Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac initially catalyzed the oxidation of 8-HQ to yield the corresponding reactive radical intermediates, which subsequently undergone self-coupling reaction via C − C and C − O − C covalent coupling at their ortho and/or para positions, finally forming oligomers and polymers. The inhibition assays of marine bacterium ( Vibrio fischeri ) demonstrated that the toxicity of 8-HQ and its intermediate products was effectively reduced after Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 -Lac treatment. The results of this study might present an alternative immobilized laccase-based clean biotechnology for the clean-up and detoxification of 8-HQ contaminated MPW.

The diffusion, adsorption/desorption behaviors of water molecules and hydrogen molecules are of great importance in heterogeneous photocatalytic hydrogen production. In the study of structure–property–performance relationships, nanoconfined space provides an ideal platform to promote mass diffusion and transfer due to their extraordinary properties that are different from the bulk systems. Herein, we designed and prepared a nanoconfined CdS@SiO 2 -NH 2 nanoreactor, whose shell is composed of amino-functionalized silica nanochannels, and encapsulates spherical CdS as a photocatalyst inside. Experimental and simulated results reveal that the amino-functionalized nanochannels promote water molecules’ and hydrogen molecules’ directional diffusion and transport. Water molecules are enriched in the nanocavity between the core and the shell, and promote the interfacial photocatalytic reaction. As a result, the maximized water enrichment and minimized hydrogen-occupied active sites enable photocatalyst with optimized mass transfer kinetics and localization electron distribution on the CdS surface, leading to superior hydrogen production performance with activity as high as 37.1 mmol·g −1 ·h −1 .

In this study, mesoporous amino-group functionalised iron/silica hollow spheres (Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs) were successfully developed as a magnetic absorbent for the highly effective removal of Cr(VI) ions. The Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs were synthesized using monodispersed silica colloids as a chemical template, followed by a one-pot hydrothermal treatment, hydrogen reduction and surface modification with an amino silane coupling agent. The Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs have a diameter of ca. 950 nm and a shell thickness of ca. 60 nm, and the surfaces were composed of Fe and SiO2 units with amino functional groups. Meanwhile, the ferromagnetic property endowed them with easy recyclability for practical applications. The Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs exhibited significantly improved ability to remove pollutant Cr(VI) and methyl orange. The removal percentage of Cr(VI) (8 mg L−1) could reach 98.3% in just 5 min using Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs; however, only 10% of Cr(VI) were removed using the unmodified samples. XPS analysis suggested that the removal of Cr(VI) was attributed to the adsorption and reduction synergistic process of the Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs. During the process, an electrostatic attraction occurred between the positively charged amino-groups and the negatively charged pollutant species in the aqueous solution, and adsorbed Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) species by the iron of Fe/SiO2–NH2 HSs.

The presence of chlorophenols in water and wastewater is considered a serious environmental issue . To eliminate these micropollutants, biodegradation of chlorophenols using enzyme-nanoparticle conjugated biocatalyst, is proposed as an economical and eco-friendly method. Herein, amino-functionalized superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 nanoparticles with core-shell structure were constructed as a promising carrier for immobilization of laccase from Trametes versicolor . Compared with free laccase, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 -Laccase displayed remarkable outcomes in all major areas such as temperature and storage stabilities, and tolerance to organic solvents and metal ions . The biocatalytic performance and reusability of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –NH 2 -Laccase were evaluated for the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) in repeated cycles. Even after 10 successive reuses, the degradation rate of 2,4-DCP and 2,4,6-TCP were found to be 54.9% and 68.7%, respectively. The influences of solution pH, initial chlorophenol concentration, and temperature on the degradation rate of these two chlorophenols were evaluated. The degradation intermediate products including dimers, trimers , and tetramers of 2,4-DCP and 2,4,6-TCP were identified. Release of chloride ions was observed during the enzymatic degradation of these two chlorophenols. Based on the determination of intermediate products and released chloride ions, the degradation pathway that was involved in dehydrogenation , reactive radical intermediates formation, dechlorination , self-coupling and oligomers/polymers formation was proposed. The toxicity of these two chlorophenols and their intermediates was substantially reduced during the enzymatic degradation. The results of this study might present an alternative clean biotechnology for the remediation of 2,4-DCP and 2,4,6-TCP contaminated water matrices.
