Heterostructured materials favoring synergism, efficient charge transfer, and abundant active sites have aroused enormous interests for water electrolysis. Here heterogeneous Co@CoO encapsulated in P, N co-doped carbon nanofibers supported on carbon cloth (Co@CoO-PNC/CC) has been prepared to pursue attractive synergism for the application of pH-tolerant catalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in both alkaline and neutral solutions. The prepared Co@CoO-PNC/CC exhibits advanced OER performances, generating a current density of 10 mA cm −2 at overpotential of 289 mV in alkaline media and 371 mV in neutral media. The high OER activity can be assigned to the synergistic effect of abundant active sites and enhanced charge transfer between Co and CoO, as well as the specific P, N co-doped carbon nanofiber architecture.

The selective oxidation of alcohols is traditionally catalyzed by precious metals, where high cost, low selectivity, poor stability, and environmental concerns have hindered their wide application. Here we report a nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped microporous carbon (NPMC) as an efficient catalyst towards the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol. NPMC is fabricated from one-step pyrolysis of an aerogel derived from the polymerization of p-phenylenediamine with phytic acid. The optimized NPMC exhibits high efficiency and universality for the selective oxidation of alcohols in an aqueous environment using air as the oxidant, due to its large surface area (∼676 m2 g−1), good hydrophilicity, and suitable microporous structure (1–2 nm), as well as the concerted effects between N and P doping. 50 mg of the catalyst is sufficient for affording almost quantitative amounts of benzyl alcohol oxidized to benzaldehyde without organic solvents and co-catalysts, and its catalytic performance is the best among the metal-free catalysts reported. The heterogeneous catalyst is also perfectly stable, and can be reused several times without significant loss of activity and selectivity.

Nitrogen doped carbon dots were synthesized using the hydrothermal reaction of cellulose and urea, and then carbonized in a N2 atmosphere at a high temperature to prepare N-doped carbon dots decorated with manganese oxide nanospheres (N-CMOS) formed using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and MnO. The introduction of N-CMOS resulted in a large specific surface area, abundant pores, favourable conductivity and an excellent electrocatalytic performance. A glassy carbon electrode modified with N-CMOS was used for the simultaneous identification of paracetamol (AP) and p-aminophenol (PAP) utilising differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimum conditions, the electrical sensor showed a wide linear range of 0.1–100 μM for PAP and 0.1–80 μM for AP, with detection limits of 0.0456 and 0.0303 μM (S/N = 3), respectively. The sensitivities for detecting PAP and AP were calculated as 1.615 and 1.971 μA μM−1 cm−2, respectively. The sensitivity and limit of detection (LOD) meet the requirements of detection of drug impurity limits in tablets. In addition, the sensor has been successfully applied to detect PAP and AP in paracetamol tablets. The constructed sensor not only possesses a superior repeatability, reproducibility and stability, but a relatively wide linear range, and a superior detection limit and sensitivity.

The reduced coenzymes (NADH and NADPH) are an important product in energy metabolism and closely related to the occurrence and development of cancer. So it is necessary to use a powerful detection tool to visualize NAD(P)H in energy metabolism of tumor cells and find a new strategy to improve cancer treatment based on NAD(P)H. Herein, a novel multifunctional probe (Cy-N) is synthesized with good near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) response to NAD(P)H and the photoacoustic (PA) and photothermal properties are successfully activated by NAD(P)H. The probe is successfully applied in visualizing NAD(P)H in energy metabolism of tumor cells and imaging NAD(P)H in bacteria. Moreover, the probe can be used to image NAD(P)H in energy metabolism of tumor-bearing mice by dual-modal imaging (NIRF and PA). More importantly, in terms of the role of NAD(P)H in energy metabolism, the photothermal therapy (PTT) is activated by NAD(P)H and a novel strategy of enhanced PTT is proposed by injecting glucose. As far as we know, this is the first probe to detect NAD(P)H in energy metabolism through dual-modal imaging, and also the first probe to activate PTT based on NAD(P)H, which will provide important information of the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

The BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 p–n junctions were constructed by anion exchange method with Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 in situ growth on BiOI. Then, the surfaces of BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 samples were modified by negative charge with (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) in an ethanol solution. Finally, the ami-BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 /graphene (RGO) ternary composites were fabricates by the simple hydrothermal reaction. The obtained photocatalysts were well characterized with the various characterization techniques to study their morphological, physical, optical, and photocurrent properties, and have been evaluated by investigating the degradation of Rhodamine B and tetracycline under visible irradiation. Compared with single BiOI, the BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 photocatalysts displays higher photocatalytic activity, due to the formation of the electric fields between p–n heterojunction to promote the migration of photogenerated carriers. Moreover, the ami-BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 /RGO composites with the best photocatalytic activities can be attributed to that the positively charged ami-BiOI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 were coupled with the negatively charged graphite oxide (GO) by electrostatically attraction to form the effectively interfacial contacts, causing the photocatalytic reaction sites increased, the range of light response expanded, the separation of photogenerated charge further improved. This work provides a feasible strategy for the construction of high efficiency semiconductor and RGO nanocomposite photocatalyst.

Pre-magnetized Fe 0 /persulfate (pre-Fe 0 /PS) process was innovatively employed for controlling the pollution of p -arsanilic acid ( p -ASA). This process showed favorable removal performance, achieving almost complete elimination of 10 mg/L p -ASA within 30 min at the reaction conditions of 0.2 g/L pre-Fe 0 and 1 mM PS. The increase of PS concentration and pre-Fe 0 dosage was conducive to the degradation. The coexistence of Cl − , NO 3 − and SO 4 2− accelerated the removal, however the presence of HCO 3 − and HA presented the opposite trend. The p -ASA degradation decelerated gradually with increasing pH from 5 to 9. Its removal was caused by the attack of reactive oxygen species (i.e., SO 4 − , OH, O 2 − ), which could be continuously formed via the Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ cycle in solution and on pre-Fe 0 surface. In pre-Fe 0 /PS system, SO 4 − in solution, surface-bound SO 4 − , OH, OH in solution, O 2 − in solution and Fe(IV) contributed to the p -ASA degradation. A plausible transformation route related to the break of C-N and As-C bonds, the substitution of OH group was put forward. More importantly, the released inorganic arsenic during p -ASA decomposition could be effectively controlled through multiple functions including the precipitation, co-precipitation and sorption, which was well confirmed by XPS, FTIR and XRD analysis. Pre-Fe 0 /PS and Fe 0 /PS pretreatments both reduced the generation of C-DBPs except for chloral hydrate, while increased the formation of N-DBPs except for trichloroacetamide.

Both nitrophenol wastewater and aromatic amine industrial waste residue are serious threats to our environment. In this paper, N-rich porous carbons (NPC) derived from industrial aromatic amine waste residue were prepared via a facile “carbonization-activation” one-step approach. Owing to the extremely high activation efficiency of amine residue-NaOH matching strategy, NPC prepared with 1.5 of NaOH-residue ratio obtained an ultra-high specific surface area of 3120 m 2 /g with a huge pore volume of 2.381 cm 3 /g. XPS analysis shows that graphitic-N and pyridinic-N are the main N-doped species. The plentiful pore structure, ultra-high surface area, and modification of nitrogen-doped sites rendered the NPCs remarkable adsorption capacity (1030.51 mg/g) for p-nitrophenol (PNP). Adsorption isotherms and adsorption kinetics indicated the adsorption behavior of PNP molecules on NPCs surface adhered to the mechanism of monolayer adsorption and pseudo-second-order kinetic. DFT calculation studies revealed that N-doped species could effectively enhance the adsorption energy of PNP on carbon surface due to the enhanced dispersion and electrostatic attraction. Particularly, the pyridinic-N made an outstanding contribution to improve the interactions through hydrogen bonding. Furthermore, the NPC-1.5 showed an excellent adsorption stability for PNP in the reusability test of 12 cycles, reflecting its great potential in practical application.

For conductive hydrogels applied in biosensors, wearable devices and so forth, multifunctionality is an inevitable trend of development to meet various practical requirements and enhance human experience. Herein, inspired by nanocomposite, double-network (DN) and mussel chemistry, a new Graphene oxide@Dopamine/Alginate/Poly(acrylic acid- co -acrylamide) [GO@DA/Alginate/P(AAc- co -AAm)] hydrogel was fabricated through one-pot in-situ radical copolymerization. GO@DA nanofillers, prepared via GO confined DA polymerization, imparted the hydrogel with remarkable adhesiveness. Alginate/P(AAc- co -AAm) DN matrix, physically and chemically crosslinked by Fe 3+ and N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide, made hydrogels ultrastretchable, self-healing and biocompatible. With contents of DA and alginate accurately regulated, the tensile strength, elongation, adhesion strength and conductivity of the optimal hydrogel could reach 320.2 kPa, 1198 %, 36.9 kPa and 3.24 ± 0.12 S/m, respectively. What’s more notable was that the synergistic integration of repeatable adhesiveness, strain sensitivity, use stability, self-healing ability and biocompatibility provided such hydrogels with tremendous possibility of practical application for strain sensors.

Using solar energy to reduce bromate in drinking water is promising. Unfortunately, most effective photocatalysts for bromate conversion are metal-based semiconductors. Here, for the first time, metal-free hybrid composites made of red phosphorus and perylene diimide (RP/PDI) were successfully designed and constructed, and their excellent catalytic performance for removing bromate under visible light was demonstrated. Characterizations such as XRD, FTIR, Raman, SEM and XPS confirmed the successful preparation of the hybrid catalyst, and the impact of water matrices suggests that it can be used for the actual treatment of bromate. The bromate reduction rate of the prepared RP/PDI-2 was 4.2 times and 7.0 times faster than pure RP and PDI, respectively. As evidenced by EIS and EPR results, this improvement is mainly due to the formation of p-n heterojunctions , which enhanced the separation of charge carriers and inhibited the production of active species ( O 2 − and OH) with strong oxidative capabilities. Considered holistically, the current study provides not only a metal-free photocatalyst with good photoreduction performance, but also some guidance for the rational design of hybrid photocatalyst in the treatment of aqueous bromate.

In this work, we report a family of co-halogenated two-dimensional hybrid perovskites (2DHPs) based on phenethylammonium lead halogen ((PEA) 2 Pb(Cl/Br) 4 ) in which the organic cation-site (PEA) is substituted with halogen at the para-site, namely the formation of 4-halophenethylamine (X-p-PEA) (X = Cl, Br; p: para-site). The organic cations are regulated by introducing halogen ions at the para-site of the benzene ring to promote the structural distortion of the lead halide octahedral inorganic layer. Furthermore, (X-p-PEA) causes a shift in the energy band distribution of 2DHPs. In this case, the photoluminescence competition of free excitons (FEs) and self-trapped excitons (STEs) changes the microscopic relaxation process of excitons. In addition, we found that (Br-p-PEA) can increase the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). At the same time, we regulate the halogen-site of perovskites from lead-chloride perovskites (LCPs) to lead bromine perovskites (LBPs), achieving emission from white light to blue light. Therefore, the co-halogenation regulation strategy of organic cation-site and halogen-site can effectively regulate the photoluminescence wavelength and improve the PLQY. This is of great significance for the development of perovskite materials with specific optoelectronic applications.

p -Hydroxybenzoic acid is an emerging contaminant because it has multiple sources such as the hydrolysis of methylparaben, ethylparaben and propylparaben used widely as preservatives in food and drinks, and as well as from the agro-industrial wastewaters. In this study, the nano-ZIF-8@chitosan microspheres (ZIF-8@CSM) were fabricated via the combination of inverse emulsion method and in-situ growth method. The performance of ZIF-8@CSM for the adsorption of p -hydroxybenzoic acid from aqueous solution was studied. The adsorption kinetics showed that the adsorption rapidly reached the equilibrium about 30 s. The equilibrium data were well described by the Langmuir isothermal model and the estimated maximum adsorption capacity was 128.70 mg/g. The thermodynamics analysis indicated negative free energy, enthalpy, and entropy changes suggesting that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic. ZIF-8@CSM is promising to be used as a good adsorption material to remove p -hydroxybenzoic acid rapidly from aqueous solutions.

Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum are the two important postharvest pathogens in citrus, causing about 90% of the total loss of citrus fruit during storage and transportation. Natural fungicides such as essential oils have been widely used instead of chemical fungicides for preventing and controlling postharvest diseases. In this research, p -anisaldehyde exhibited a strong inhibitory effect on P. digitatum and P. italicum , with the minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum fungicidal concentration values of both being 2.00 μl/ml. Additionally, p -anisaldehyde visibly inhibited both the green mold and blue mold development of citrus fruits inoculated with P. digitatum and P. italicum . The mycelia morphologies of these pathogens were greatly altered, and the membrane permeability and cell wall integrity of mycelia were severely disrupted under p -anisaldehyde treatment. These results suggest that the antifungal activity of p -anisaldehyde against P. digitatum and P. italicum can be attributed to the disruption of the cell wall integrity.
