Abstract Aiming to develop universal, effective, and visually observable sensing nanomaterials for detecting concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), we fabricated a functionalized alumina aerogel sheet by embedding a chromatic conjugated polymer–polydiacetylene (PDA) in alumina aerogel pores, which underwent dramatic color changes upon exposure to different concentrations of VOCs. Taking the activated carbon as the example, we designed an air purification detection system by using the as-synthesized PDA-functionalized alumina aerogel sheets, which could give a definite indication from the changes of color. Overall, this study presents a simple and low-cost method to fabricate PDA-functionalized alumina aerogel sheet in which noncovalent interactions between the alumina aerogel sheet substrate and spin-coated PDA give rise to distinct chromatic properties after exposure to different concentrations of VOCs.

High-capacity anode materials are highly desirable for sodium ion batteries. Here, a porous Sb/Sb 2 O 3 nanocomposite is successfully synthesized by the mild oxidization of Sb nanocrystals in air. In the composite, Sb contributes good conductivity and Sb 2 O 3 improves cycling stability, particularly within the voltage window of 0.02–1.5 V. It remains at a reversible capacity of 540 mAh·g –1 after 180 cycles at 0.66 A·g –1 . Even at 10 A·g –1 , the reversible capacity is still preserved at 412 mAh·g –1 , equivalent to 71.6% of that at 0.066 A·g –1 . These results are much better than Sb nanocrystals with a similar size and structure. Expanding the voltage window to 0.02–2.5 V includes the conversion reaction between Sb 2 O 3 and Sb into the discharge/charge profiles. This would induce a large volume change and high structure strain/stress, deteriorating the cycling stability. The identification of a proper voltage window for Sb/Sb 2 O 3 paves the way for its development in sodium ion batteries.

Abstract Current methods for measurement of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) in wastewater suffer from a small detection range and complex pretreatment. In this study, ion chromatography (IC) with conductivity detection was used to directly analyze UDMH in wastewater, without any derivatization pretreatment, and the measurement range was as wide as 0.5–1000 μg·mL −1 . The effects of column temperature and sample pH on the detection were investigated. Furthermore, the chromatography conditions were optimized by combining the effects of different combinations of nitric acid, 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (PDCA), and methanesulfonic acid (MSA) on the analysis of mixed samples of UDMH and alkali metal ions. The linearity of the detected peak height ( H ) and peak area ( A ) versus UDMH concentration was studied at low, medium, and high concentrations. A good linear relationship was observed in the range of 0.5–1000 μg·mL −1 , especially for A , the relative standard deviation (RSD) and correlation coefficient ( R 2 ) of which were 0.077–1.653% and 0.9998–1.0000, respectively. In addition, the method showed good sensitivity with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.05 μg·mL −1 and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.16 μg mL −1 . The precision and accuracy (expressed by recovery) were verified, where the RSD were less than 1.49% and 3.17%. Interference between hydrazines and alkali metal ions was discussed. Finally, actual UDMH samples were determined, confirming the applicability of the developed method for analyzing UDMH in wastewater during the degradation process. Graphic Abstract

This study was based on the specific binding ability of magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) combined with a high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD) for the rapid determination of zearalenone (ZEN) in cereals. A novel magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared by surface imprinting technology. Warfarin was used as a virtual template, 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) was used as the functional monomer, and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as the cross-linking agent. Analysis by a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that MMIPs were prepared with a particle size about 450 nm, the imprinted molecular layer accounting for 10.7% of the total mass, and saturation magnetization of about 34.54 emu/g. The maximum adsorption capacity ( Q max ) of the thermodynamic and kinetic adsorption experiments were 13.90 mg/g and 8.71 mg/g, respectively. The Langmuir model showed that the binding sites were uniformly distributed on the surface of the MMIPs. The Scatchard analysis showed that MMIPs had two types of binding sites with Q max of 8.22 mg/g and 15.37 mg/g, respectively. In actual sample detection, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.4 ng/kg and 0.9 ng/kg, respectively. The sample recovery rate was 90.56–99.96%, the daytime stability was 1.35–2.87%. These results showed that MMIPs had good performance in selectively identifying ZEN and were suitable for determining ZEN in cereals.

Abstract All-inorganic perovskite materials have many advantages such as adjustable emission range, narrow emission peaks, and good crystallinity, which have attracted widespread interest. They can be used as solar cells, LEDs, photodetectors, displays, and other optoelectronic devices. However, poor environmental stability is the major factor limiting its applications. We introduced a Poly(styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene) SEBS polymer to create perovskite/SEBS composite films which have excellent stability even in the water environment. Besides, due to the elastic nature of SEBS, the composite films exhibited good mechanical deformability and could maintain most of its fluorescence intensity after being stretched hundreds of times. A WLED device was constructed by stacking CsPbBr 3 /SEBS films and CsPbI 3 /SEBS films over a blue LED. The WLED performed well with color rendering index of 82.6 with chromaticity coordination (0.35, 0.36) and color temperature 4784 K. Graphic Abstract

Most research efforts focus on synthesis of new biocides. This study shows that orientating biocidal groups on top surface with the help of a low-surface-tension constituent also imparts enhanced antibacterial ability. A CO 2 -philic biocidal silicone with pyridinium pendants was synthesized by hydrosilylation reaction of (45% methylhydrosiloxane)–dimethylsiloxane random copolymer (P(MHS–DMS)) and 4-vinylpyridine and subsequent quaternization of pyridine groups with 6-perfluorooctyl-1-bromohexane. The fluorinated pyridinium silicone was impregnated into cotton yarns in supercritical CO 2 to form a 50 nm thickness biocidal layer at 24 MPa and 50 °C. Pyridinium groups preferentially segregated to the top surface with the aid of low-surface-tension perfluorooctyl segments and provided higher biocidal efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli compared to their counterparts that were quaternized with 1-bromohexane at similar total pyridinium content of about 4.65 × 10 16 /cm 2 . The synthesis and coating results were characterized by FTIR, SEM, and XPS. The stabilities of fluorinated pyridinium silicone layer toward washing cycles, UV irradiation, and storage were good. The presented strategy uses environmentally benign CO 2 as solvent and affords a general method to functionalize polymers for improved biocidal capability due to the surface orientation of pyridinium groups.

Azobenzene compounds have been widely used in many fields and through their response to light they can be used to regulate the properties of ordered structures. In this paper, sub-micrometer colloidal SiO 2 spheres were prepared and azobenzene groups were grafted on the surface of SiO 2 microspheres. The SiO 2 microspheres grafted with azobenzene groups could self-assemble to form photosensitive photonic crystals, whose photonic bandgaps red-shifted as irradiated by UV light due to the structure change of the azobenzene groups.

Constraining the electrochemical reactivity of free solvent molecules is pivotal for developing high-voltage lithium metal batteries, especially for ether solvents with high Li metal compatibility but low oxidation stability ( <4.0 V vs Li + /Li). The typical high concentration electrolyte approach relies on nearly saturated Li + coordination to ether molecules, which is confronted with severe side reactions under high voltages ( >4.4 V) and extensive exothermic reactions between Li metal and reactive anions. Herein, we propose a molecular anchoring approach to restrict the interfacial reactivity of free ether solvents in diluted electrolytes. The hydrogen-bonding interactions from the anchoring solvent effectively suppress excessive ether side reactions and enhances the stability of nickel rich cathodes at 4.7 V, despite the extremely low Li + /ether molar ratio (1:9) and the absence of typical anion-derived interphase. Furthermore, the exothermic processes under thermal abuse conditions are mitigated due to the reduced reactivity of anions, which effectively postpones the battery thermal runaway.

A new symmetrical diamine that contains benzimidazole ring, 6,6’-bis[2-(4-aminophenyl)benzimidazole], was synthesised directly from p -aminobenzoic acid and 3,3’-diaminobenzidine via benzimidazolisation condensation. The diamine monomer was polymerised with various commercial dianhydrides by a conventional two-step polymerisation reaction to obtain the corresponding polyimides. The obtained polyimides were amorphous and could be used to produce flexible, yet tough, transparent films exhibiting excellent thermal stability with glass transition temperatures of 334 °C to 412 °C and 5 % weight loss temperatures above 540 °C in nitrogen. These polymers also demonstrated outstanding mechanical properties with a tensile strength of 177 MPa to 224 MPa and a tensile modulus of 3.5 GPa to 5.7 GPa. The excellent thermal and mechanical properties of these polyimides are most likely attributable to the rigid-rod structure and the presence of hydrogen bond between the macromolecular chains.

A composite of WO 3 and WS 2 has a wider wavelength range of light adsorption and light emission than WS 2 . A noble metal nanostructure can be utilized to adjust the photoluminescence (PL) of luminescent materials. In this study, WO 3 -WS 2 flakes were synthesized. A straightforward bath method has been employed to synthesize Ag nanoparticles (NPs). The average size of Ag NPs is approximately 60 nm. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) peak of WO 3 -WS 2 flake at 495 cm −1 is from an alkane S–S bond stretching vibration. The PL intensity of WO 3 -WS 2 was attenuated subsequent to its integration with Ag NPs. The PL quantum yield of the WO 3 -WS 2 /Ag composite can reach 0.11%. This occurrence can be explained by the pronounced resonance absorption and diminished light extraction induced by the Ag NPs. This decreased light emission of the Ag NPs incorporated with WO 3 -WS 2 may be employed in some situations needing extinction, such as photography and projection. Graphical Abstract

Poor water solubility of cellulose acetate is a key factor limiting its application in leather finishing field. Herein, a self-emulsifying aqueous emulsion was synthesized by using cellulose diacetate (CDA) as the substrate, dimethylolbutyric acid (DMBA) as the hydrophilic agent, and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) as the bridging agent. Because the flexible carbon chain of HDI has the advantages of easy bending and deformation, the problem of large steric hindrance and low reactivity of -OH during water-based CDA can be solved by using the method of converting reactive functional groups and transferring reactive sites. At the same time, the flexible molecule 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and propylene glycol polyether (N210) are used as chain extenders to increase the molecular stretch and curl ability by adjusting the ratio of molecular soft and hard segments, and improve emulsion stability and coating flexibility. And through the reaction of -NH 2 and -NCO on the surface of nano SiO 2 modified by KH550, the nano SiO 2 is evenly distributed in the CDA water-based polymer to improve the comprehensive performance of the emulsion coating. Thus the nano-SiO 2 modified cellulose acetate water-based polymer emulsion (SiO 2 /WCDA) is obtained for leather finishing. The emulsion particles show an oil-in-water (O/W) core–shell structure, and the average particle size and dispersion coefficient (PDI) of the particles are 88.79 nm and 0.150, respectively. The surface of the coating film is compact, flat, and hydrophobic, with the contact angle is 104.3 °. In addition, the coating film has good adhesion, water resistance, heat resistance, yellowing resistance, chemical resistance, flexibility and mechanical properties.

To increase the adsorption capacity of the Corylus heterophylla Fisch(HS) for Pb 2+ , HS was chemically modified using NaOH aqueous solution and 95% ethanol and was labeled as SHS; then SHS was chemically modified using mercaptoacetic acid. The SHS modified with mercaptoacetic acid(MHS) was characterized using FTIR, SEM, and XPS. The results indicated that the —SH group was present on MHS, and after Pb 2+ adsorption, the absorption value of the characteristic peak of the —SH group decreased. The adsorption and desorption properties of this functionalized material were investigated as well as the influences of parameters, such as pH value, type of desorption reagent, dosage, flow rate and maximum sample volume. The Pb 2+ adsorption of MHS reached a maximum with pH>5. The experimental data of Pb 2+ adsorption using MHS were fitted using the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model, and a maximum adsorption capacity of 61.54 mg/g was obtained. This was much higher than the adsorption capacity of SHS before modification with the thiol group. After adsorption, MHS was desorbed using a 0.2 mol/L HCl solution, and the percent of desorption was higher than 99%. MHS was used as a solid-phase extractant in the analysis and determination of Pb 2+ content in food and water samples, and the enrichment times achieved 150-fold.
