Temperature-sensitive materials are increasingly of deep interest to researchers. Ion imprinting technology is widely used in the field of metal recovery. In order to solve the problem of rare earth metal recovery, we designed a temperature-sensitive dual-imprinted hydrogel adsorption product (CDIH) with chitosan as the matrix, N-isopropylacrylamide as a thermally responsive monomer , and La 3+ and Y 3+ as the co-templates. The reversible thermal sensitivity and ion-imprinted structure were determined by differential scanning calorimetry , Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, Raman spectra , Thermogravimetric analysis , X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy , Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray energy spectroscopy various characterizations and analyses. The simultaneous adsorption amount of CDIH for La 3+ and Y 3+ was 87.04 mg/g and 90.70 mg/g, respectively. The quasi-secondary kinetic model and Freundlich isotherms model well described the adsorption mechanism of CDIH. It's worthy to mention that CDIH could be well regenerated through washing with deionized water at 20 °C, with a desorption rate of 95.29 % for La 3+ and 96.03 % for Y 3+ . And after 10 cycles of reuse, 70 % of the adsorption amount could be maintained, revealing excellent reusability. Furthermore, CDIH expressed better adsorption selectivity to La 3+ and Y 3+ than its non-imprinted counterparts in a solution containing six metal ions .

Ulcerative arterial bleeding is characterized by sudden onset, rapid disease development, and high mortality, which is a great challenge for clinicians to treat, specially bleeding in areas where endoscopic operation is difficult, or in the case of diffuse bleeding, tumor bleeding, and recurrent bleeding. Herein, we proposed a novel treatment strategy using biomaterials to protect the wound and isolate the erosion of digestive tract contents to prevent arterial bleeding in advance. By introducing chitosan to construct multihydrogen-bonding and an electrostatic interaction system, we developed polyethyleneimine/polyacrylic acid/chitosan (PEI/PAA/CS) multifunctional hydrogel. The new hydrogel is characterized by ultrafast gelation, strong tissue adhesion, gastric acid resistance, burst resistance, biocompatibility, hemostasis, and tissue repair. The addition of CS significantly improved the tissue adhesion, biocompatibility, hemostasis, and tissue repair ability of the hydrogel. The PEI/PAA/CS hydrogel could adhere to the ulcer surface and form a protective layer on the wound to prevent arterial bleeding. Importantly, the PEI/PAA/CS hydrogel also has the ability to stop bleeding and promote wound repair, which has been demonstrated in a variety of hemorrhage models in rats and rabbits. All of these factors indicate that the PEI/PAA/CS hydrogel is a promising biomaterial for reducing the risk of ulcerative arterial bleeding.

O -Carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles ( O -CMC-NPs), which are organic pesticide carriers, have excellent application potential. Exploring the effects of O -CMC-NPs on non-target organisms, such as Apis cerana cerana , is critical for their effective application; however, such studies are limited. This study investigated the stress response of A. cerana Fabricius after O -CMC-NPs ingestion. The administration of high O -CMC-NP concentrations enhanced the activities of antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes in A. cerana , with the activity of glutathione- S -transferase increasing by 54.43 %–64.33 % after one day. The transit of O -CMC-NPs into the A. cerana midgut resulted in their deposition and adherence to the intestinal wall, as they cluster and precipitate in acidic conditions. The population of Gillianella bacteria in the middle intestine was remarkably reduced after 6 d of administration of high O -CMC-NP concentrations. Contrastingly, the abundance of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus in the rectum significantly increased. These results indicate that the intake of high concentrations of O -CMC-NPs causes a stress response in A. cerana and affects the relative abundance of crucial intestinal flora, which may pose a potential risk to the colony. This implies that even nanomaterials with favorable biocompatibility should be applied reasonably within a specific range to avoid adverse effects on the environment and non-target organisms in the context of large-scale research and promotion of nanomaterials.

Trauma-induced articular cartilage damages are common in clinical practice. Hydrogels have been used to fill the cartilage defects and act as extracellular matrices for cell migration and tissue regeneration. Lubrication and stability of the filler materials are essential to achieve a satisfying healing effect in cartilage regeneration. However, conventional hydrogels failed to provide a lubricous effect, or could not anchor to the wound to maintain a stable curing effect. Herein, we fabricated dually cross-linked hydrogels using oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) and N -(2-hydroxypropyl)-3-trimethylammonium chitosan chloride (HTCC) methacrylate (HTCCMA). The OHA/HTCCMA hydrogels, which were dynamically cross-linked and then covalently cross-linked by photo-irradiation, showed appropriate rheological properties and self-healing capability. The hydrogels exhibited moderate and stable tissue adhesion property due to formation of dynamic covalent bonds with the cartilage surface. The coefficient of friction values were 0.065 and 0.078 for the dynamically cross-linked and double-cross-linked hydrogels, respectively, demonstrating superior lubrication. In vitro studies showed that the hydrogels had good antibacterial ability and promoted cell proliferation. In vivo studies confirmed that the hydrogels were biocompatible and biodegradable, and exhibited a robust regenerating ability for articular cartilage. This lubricant-adhesive hydrogel is expected to be promising for the treatment of joint injuries as well as regeneration.

Natural Monascus yellow pigments (MYPs) have received considerable attention due to their great safety and biological activities, but their unsatisfactory color tonality and stability limit their applications. A novel encapsulate system for hydrophilic yellow pigments (HYPs) were investigated through stable ternary nanocomplexes using quercetin-Sn (II), bovine serum albumin (BSA), and chitosan (CS) in this work. Layer-by-layer assembly preparation of HYPs-loaded quercetin-Sn (II)-BSA-CS nanocomplexes were verified by fluorescence spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy , X-ray photoelectron spectra, and 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance. A hyperchromic effect on HYPs was obtained since their maximum ultraviolet absorption wavelength redshifted from 352 nm to 364 nm first due to the interaction with quercetin-Sn (II) and further redshifted to 408 nm due to ternary conjugation, greatly improved the color tonality and dye-uptake. The HYPs-loaded nanocomplexes showed irregular glomerate nanosphere with 252–382 nm of particle size. Their conjugation remitted HYPs degradation under various environmental stresses (thermal, light, and ascorbic acid treatment), and had a great color stability response to pH change. Higher lipid-lowering and antioxidant activities were detected in the nanocomplexes than free HYPs. This study provides a new way for fabricating novel MYPs with great physicochemical stability, bright color and hypolipidemic activities.

The recovery of gold from wastewater has always been a research hotspot. Here, a novel chitosan-based adsorbent (CS-DPDM) was successfully synthesized by functionalizing chitosan with (N, N-(2-aminoethyl))-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide. The adsorbent was analyzed by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H NMR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and zeta potential method (Zeta). To investigate the adsorption performance of CS-DPDM for Au(III), the effects of pH, temperature, adsorption time and initial concentration were discussed. The maximum adsorption capacity of CS-DPDM for Au(III) at pH 5.0 is 659.02 mg/g at 318 K. The adsorption is a spontaneous endothermic behavior, and the adsorption process follows the quasi-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, indicating that a single layer of chemical adsorption may have occurred on the surface of the adsorbent. The competitive adsorption and repetitive experiments show that CS-DPDM has considerable selectivity and reusability for Au(III). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results show that N and O functional groups adsorb Au(III) on the surface of CS-DPDM through electrostatic, chelation and reduction. These results indicate that CS-DPDM has broad application prospects in recovering gold ions from aqueous solutions.

This paper aims to synthesis a recyclable adsorbent from solid waste using a clean and environmentally friendly method to deal with Cr(VI) water pollution. Magnetic zeolite/chitosan composites (ZFA/MCS) were prepared by the neutralization method. The adsorption properties of ZFA/MCS, prepared by the neutralization method for Cr(VI) ions under different conditions especially cross-linking, were investigated in detail. The results showed that cross-linked ZFA/MCS generally showed higher adsorption capacity than uncross-linked ones. The uncross-linked ZFA/MCS and cross-linked ZFA/MCS showed a saturated adsorption capacity of 25.67 mg·g −1 and 28.47 mg·g −1 at pH = 3 and 30 °C, respectively. The experimental values were followed Langmuir adsorption equations and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating that the adsorption was probably monolayer coverage and chemical adsorption, respectively. The effect of temperature proved that the adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic. Therefore, the adsorbent with excellent recyclability and adsorbability was successfully fabricated via a green synthetic strategy.

The development of an environmental-friendly thermal insulation and flame retardant material has attracted widespread attention in modern architecture. In this work, a kind of novel aerogel composites were prepared by incorporation of Mg(OH) 2 coated hollow glass microspheres (HGM) into chitosan (CSA) matrix and then cross-linking by glutaraldehyde (abbreviated as CSA-HGM-Mg(OH) 2 ). The as-prepared composite aerogel exhibits vertical directional channel with high porosity and excellent thermal insulation with a low thermal conductivity of 0.035 W m −1 k −1 . Besides, it shows excellent flame retardancy with a high limit oxygen index (LOI) value up to 50.8, which is one of the highest values among the most of flame retardants reported previously. Also, a very low peak heat release rate (pHRR) of 24.12 kW m −2 was obtained which makes the aerogel composite reaching UL-94 V-0 rating. Such results may be attributed to a synergy effect by combination of its abundantly porous structure derived from HGM to give a better thermal insulation and excellent nonflammability of CSA and Mg(OH) 2 to offer a superior flame retardancy. Taking advantages of its high mechanical strength , low cost materials, simple and scalable preparation method, CSA-HGM-Mg(OH) 2 aerogel composites may hold great potential for future thermal insulation and flame retardant applications.

A relatively straightforward green method to fabricate robust hydrophobic sponges for effective removal of oil pollutants and other organic contaminants was developed. These sponges were constructed from bio-sources: citronellal and palmitic acid-modified aminoethyl cyclodextrin-sodium phytate-chitosan (ACCTCS). The modified sponge exhibited desirable mechanical properties and strong hydrophobicity with a water contact angle (WCA) of 147.8°. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the ACCTCS sponge had a highly porous structure that was particularly suitable for organic component absorption. The sponge exhibited excellent absorption capacities for n-hexane, trichloromethane, vacuum pump oil, and peanut oil (47.9, 32.3, 32.6, and 32.2 g/g, respectively). The removal rate of oil was more than 80% (>26.2 g/g) after 10 absorption–desorption cycles. The ACCTCS sponge also showed good oil/water and organic components/water separation performance. The bio-source materials, green preparation method, and new absorbed-oil recovery strategy provided a novel pathway to construct multifunctional absorbents for oil/water separation in industrial wastewater.

The formation of complex coacervation using chitosan and octenyl succinic anhydride modified starch (OSA starch) and microencapsulation of algae oil were investigated in this study. The zeta-potential, turbidity and coacervate yield were evaluated as a function of pH and the chitosan- OSA starch mass ratio. The highest coacervate yield was achieved at pH 6.0 with a chitosan to OSA starch ratio of 1:3 ( w/w ). Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) indicated favorable affinity (Ka = 1.51 × 10 5 M −1 ) between chitosan and OSA starch. The microcapsules yielded an encapsulation efficiency (EE) in the range of 42.8 ± 0.8%- 93.1 ± 1.2%, the loading capacity ranged between 30.4 ± 2.7% and 58.3 ± 1.3%. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) further confirmed the microencapsulation. In comparison with the bulk oil, the microencapsulated algae oil exhibited improved oxidative stability during storage.

The application shell uses cellulose as a green and recyclable fiber material, which has great value in the field of water treatment environment. Varying factors, including pH value, dosage of CS, reaction time and original Cr(VI) ions and Cu(II) ions were studied to investigate the Cr(VI) and Cu(II) ions removal efficiency. The obtained shell trichlorocellulose has better permeability to copper ions, which is mainly due to the different oxide states of copper ions and chromium ions in a pH environment, which lead to different combinations. The price of shell cellulose neutralization is relatively low. Metal ions have better absorption properties. The kinetic and thermodynamic characteristics of the adsorption process of copper ions by chitosan yarns were discussed. The adsorption process of copper ions conformed to the quasi-second-order kinetic equation. It can be fitted by Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption of copper ions by the yarn is a spontaneous thermal reaction with both physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. Compared with chromium ions, chitosan fibers have better adsorption of copper ions, which is mainly because the amino groups in chitosan fibers can have good chelation with copper ions. SEM, FTIR, XRD were used to characterize the adsorption of copper ions by chitosan fibers, and the mechanism of the adsorption of metal ions by chitosan fibers was explored.

Designing adhesive hydrogel wound dressings with inherent antibacterial and antioxidant properties is desirable to treat cutaneous full-thickness injuries in clinical care. Herein, a series of photo-induced Schiff base crosslinking-based adhesive hydrogels with promising traits are designed and prepared through Diels-Alder (DA) reactions between functional groups-grafted carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and a photo-responsive polyethylene glycol (PEG) crosslinker. The quaternary ammonium and phenol groups in modified CMCS endows hydrogels excellent antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Upon UV (365 nm) irradiation, the generated o -nitrosobenzaldehyde from the photo-isomerization of o -nitrobenzyl in PEG derivative can subsequently crosslink with amino groups on tissue interfaces via Schiff base, endowing the hydrogel with well adhesiveness. Additionally, the hydrogel exhibits good BSA adsorption capacity, cytocompatibility and hemostatic property. The in vivo full-thickness skin defect study on mice indicates that the multi-functional hydrogel with considerable collagen deposition and vascularization capacities can be an effective and promising adhesive dressing for improving wound healing.
