The interaction between oxygen species and metal sites of various orbitals exhibits intimate correlation with the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics. Herein, a new approach for boosting the inherent ORR activity of atomically dispersed Fe−N−C matrix is represented by implanting Fe atomic clusters nearby. The as-prepared catalyst delivers excellent ORR activity with half-wave potentials of 0.78 and 0.90 V in acidic and alkaline solutions, respectively. The decent ORR activity can also be validated from the high-performance rechargeable Zn–air battery. The experiments and density functional theory calculations reveal that the electron spin-state of monodispersed Fe active sites is transferred from the low spin (LS, t 2g 6 e g 0 ) to the medium spin (MS, t 2g 5 e g 1 ) due to the involvement of Fe atomic clusters, leading to the spin electron filling in σ∗ orbit, by which it favors OH − desorption and in turn boosts the reaction kinetics of the rate-determining step. This work paves a solid way for rational design of high-performance Fe-based single atom catalysts through spin manipulation.

A synergistic photocatalytic system based on Fe-based perovskite with persulfate was constructed for alkali lignin (AL) degradation in pulp and paper wastewater. The degradation performance and mechanism on AL were carried out under ambient temperature and pressure, accompanied by visible light irradiation. The results showed that the synergistic photocatalytic system exhibited much better performance on AL degradation than the single catalytic system. The degradation efficiency reached 73.5% under the optimal conditions and was constant at around 65% over the pH range from 2 to 8. A significant escalation of the AL degradation was observed at pH 10, reaching 80.1%. The photogenerated holes, 1 O 2 and SO 4 − ·, generated by the system were involved in the degradation, and the holes played a dominant role. During the degradation process, the efficient promotion of cleavage events in lignin methoxy, β -O-4 bond, and benzene ring was observed. Consequently, the depolymerization process led to the generation of high-value compounds, namely p -hydroxybenzaldehyde and vanillin. Remarkably, the yields of the high-value compounds in the synergistic photocatalytic system were five times larger than those in the control. This study offered a viable method to activate persulfate for alkali lignin degradation and to achieve a mutually beneficial strategy for wastewater treatment and recycling.

The application of both chemotherapy and ferrotherapy together has shown great potential in increasing the effectiveness of cancer treatment. To achieve such a combination, we herein have synthesized Fe3O4 core/MIL-100(Fe) shell nanocomposites (FM) that can be used for tumor chemo-ferroptosis combination therapy. In these nanocomposites, the anticancer drug 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and iron ions could be co-delivered into tumors. On one hand, the released HCPT molecules can enter the cell nucleus and bind with DNA, resulting in induction of tumor cell apoptosis. On the other hand, the iron ions could react with H2O2 leading to the production of ROS through the Fenton reaction, thereby triggering tumor cell ferroptosis. Consequently, a superior antitumor effect was achieved through the combination of the apoptosis and ferroptosis. Additionally, the Fe3O4 core endowed FM with high performance for magnetic resonance imaging, which further provided novel avenues for imaging guidance therapy. Therefore, we anticipate that application of these nanocomposites could have great potential in the field of tumor therapy.

Cobalt-based transition metal phosphides (TMPs) exhibit huge potential as efficient OER electrocatalysts for commercial applications. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) has been served as an appealing precursor for the synthesis of cobalt-based TMPs owing to its distinctive structural advantages. However, the poor conductivity and structural variability of ZIF-67 affect the materials’ OER electrocatalytic performance. To enhance the structural stability and OER performance of ZIF-67 derived TMPs, in this work, a polyhedral TMP nanocomposite with porous hollow structure, featuring Fe-CoP on the outer shell and CoP nanoparticles within the cavity, was synthesized using ZIF-67 as template. The ZIF-67 served as both Co precursor and structure template, and the [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3− served as precursor of Fe dopant and structure stabilizer. The resulting TMP composite electrode (Fe-CoP) effectively retains the framework of ZIF-67, exhibiting prominently improved OER activity (η 10 = 297 mV) and exceptional stability (over 260 h). The Fe–C≡N–Co bonds positively influence the preservation of the sample’s morphology after phosphorization. Additionally, a ligand-substitution strategy is proposed for the formation of the designed structure. This strategy, regulating the morphology of 3D structured MOFs, offers a new understanding on stabilizing the geometric structure of MOFs and their derivatives as structure templates.

By encapsulating nanoscale particles of goethite (α-FeO(OH)), hydrous ceric oxide (CeO 2 ·H 2 O, HCO) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in the pores of polystyrene anion exchanger D201, a novel nanocomposite FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201 was prepared for the effective removal of arsenic from water. The isotherm study shows that FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201 has excellent adsorption performance for As(III) and As(V), with an increased adsorption capacity of As(III) to 40.12 mg/g compared to that of 22.03 mg/g by the composite adsorbent without AgNPs (FeO(OH)-HCO-D201). The adsorption kinetics data showed that the sorption rate of FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201 for As(III) is less than that for As(V), and the adsorption of As(III) and As(V) were consistent with the pseudo-second-order model and the pseudo-first-order model, respectively. Neutral or basic conditions are favored for the adsorption of As(III/V) by FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201. Compared with nitrate/chloride/bicarbonate, sulfate/silicate/phosphate showed more remarkable inhibition of arsenic removal by FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201, whereas natural organic matter showed no interference to the arsenic removal. The As(V) adsorption involved different interactions such as electrostatic attraction and surface complexation, while the adsorption of As(III) involved the part oxidization of As(III) to As(V) and the simultaneous adsorption of As(III) and As(V). In addition to the Ce(IV) in CeO 2 ·H 2 O acted as an oxidant, the synergistic effect of α-FeO(OH) and AgNPs also contributed to the oxidization of As(III) to As(V). Moreover, the reusable property suggested that this FeO(OH)-HCO-Ag-D201 nanocomposite has great potential for arsenic-contaminated water purification.

Nowadays, Ni/Fe bimetallic nanocomposites have shown great potential for removing Cr(VI). However, the action of Ni 0 in Cr(VI) removal is still controversial, which was studied in this work. In this study, Ni/Fe@Fe 3 O 4 -g-C 3 N 4 (NFFOCN) nanocomposites were applied to remove Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and other methods. Batch experiments were conducted to evaluate the Cr(VI) removal performance. Experimental results demonstrated that under optimal operating conditions (pH 5.5, 10 mg/L Cr(VI), 0.3 g/L NFFOCN, 30°C), a Cr(VI) removal efficiency of 90.78% was achieved within 50 min. Theoretical maximum adsorption capacity was calculated to be 36.101 mg/g. Combining experimental and characterization results, it could be concluded that Cr(VI) removal was attributed to the synergistic effect of the NFFOCN components. Ni 0 not only participated directly in the reduction of Cr(VI) as an electron donor, but also converted the corrosion product H 2 of nano-zero-valent iron (nZVI) into highly reducible atomic hydrogen (·H) to remove Cr(VI). Additionally, Ni 0 could form a primary battery with nZVI, facilitating the electron transfer between nZVI and Cr(VI). NZVI and its derivatives, Fe 2+ ions and green rust, were responsible for Cr(VI) reduction. Furthermore, the presence of Fe 3 O 4 and carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) improved the stability and reactivity of the nanocomposites.

Conforming to the principles of green chemistry and sustainable environmental progress, this work demonstrated the concept of “treating waste with waste”, i.e. treating atmospheric pollutant sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) with agricultural waste of tangerine peel. SO 2 electro-catalytic oxidation is the key technique in this endeavor, which utilizes SO 2 as reaction raw material in the anode to remove it. The anodic SO 2 electro-catalytic oxidation could be coupled to the cathodic hydrogen evolution to achieve the simultaneous SO 2 removal and hydrogen production. Anodic catalyst plays a vital role in this SO 2 transformation. In this work, tangerine peel has been re-utilized to afford tangerine peel-derived biochar (TPB) to prepare TPB/CNT-derived Fe 3 C/Fe/C (N-doped) as a capable anodic catalyst to achieve this goal. With help of various characterization techniques and electrochemical testing, the optimal iron mass fraction and pyrolysis temperature were found to be 16 wt% Fe under 800 °C, with carboxylated carbon nanotube as carbon additive. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image showed that the as-prepared TPB/CNT-derived Fe 3 C/Fe/C (N-doped) featured a unique morphology to encapsulate Fe 3 C/Fe with a layer of protecting carbon, which should contribute to the enhanced electro-catalytic performances. A flow electrolyzer was also assembled to illustrate practical application of the anodic catalyst in the real scenario. Owing to its lower cost, the as-prepared TPB/CNT-derived Fe 3 C/Fe/C (N-doped) will be advantageous to replace precious metals to mediate SO 2 electro-catalytic oxidation as one of promising environmental treatment techniques in the future.

The efficient integration of photovoltaic conversion and energy storage technologies is critical to overcoming constraints in solar energy utilization. Solar rechargeable flow batteries (SRFBs) integrate solar energy conversion and storage via photoelectrode-driven redox processes, enabling economically viable pathways for sustainable solar energy storage. However, SRFB development faces limitations of thermodynamic voltage ceilings imposed by photoelectrode/redox couple energy level mismatches and the long-term durability of photoelectrodes. In this study, a PANI/BiVO 4 (PBVO) photoelectrode was fabricated, effectively preventing direct contact between BiVO 4 (BVO) and the electrolyte, thereby suppressing the photocorrosion issues. Meanwhile, [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3- /[Fe(CN) 6 ] 4- and Br - /Br 3- (Fe-Br) redox pairs with high redox reversibility were used in the SRFB system. The designed PBVO Fe-Br SRFB achieved ultra-long stability and a sustained photocurrent for up to 50 h. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the charge transfer pathway in the PBVO electrode within the Fe-Br SRFB was verified, providing insights into the design of SRFBs.

This study aims to design and evaluate a two-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 -MXene contrast agent, codoped with iron and manganese, with the aim of achieving T 1 /T 2 dual-mode magnetic resonance imaging contrast, and to investigate its effect on Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) contrast agents. Single-layer Ti 3 C 2 was synthesized via the HCL/LiF etching technique, with the flake size subsequently tailored and the hydroxylated surface modified through a hydrothermal process. Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and MnO 2 nanosheets were integrated onto the two-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 -MXene surface using an in situ doping approach, and the final modification was achieved with carboxymethyl chitosan. Various characterization techniques were employed to assess the physical and chemical properties of the probe, which were then combined with a CEST contrast agent to investigate the mechanisms of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging and in vitro photothermal effects. Upon integrating the multi-modal molecular probe with Ioversol for imaging purposes, at a magnetic field strength of B 1 = 1.25 μT and with a molecular probe concentration of 0.5 mg/mL, the CEST signal from Ioversol is almost entirely suppressed. This allows for the successful identification of a distinct concentration range where both contrast agents can coexist. In vitro photothermal studies on MXene codoped with iron and manganese have shown that the composite molecular probe exhibits excellent photothermal efficiency. The method combining complex nanoprobes with CEST contrast agents successfully achieved simultaneous imaging of both contrast agents. In vitro MRI experiments successfully obtained distinguishable concentration ranges for both, with changes in CEST signals reflecting the concentration variations of the complex molecular probes, which also exhibit good photothermal therapy (PTT) capabilities.

The emergence of nanozymes based on metal-organic frameworks has successfully addressed some limitations of natural enzymes. ZIF-8 is a framework with high pore rate consisting of Zn 2+ and 2-methylimidazole, but its catalytic activity is limited. In this study, a new metal organic framework named ZIF-8 (FM) was prepared by doping iron and manganese in ZIF-8, which exhibited enhanced catalytic performance. ZIF-8(FM) showed the peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity by oxidizing chromogenic substrates and was capable of colorimetric detection of dopamine in actual samples. In addition, in order to improve the photothermal conversion efficiency, ZIF-8(FM) was wrapped with polydopamine (PDA) to prepare ZIF-8(FM)@PDA. The antibacterial experiments of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus showed that ZIF-8(FM)@PDA had strong antibacterial effect. Nanomaterials based on ZIF-8(FM) have great potential in dopamine detection and effective photothermal antibacterial treatment.

Further enhancing the electrocatalytic performance of transition metal sulfides for oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction reactions (OER and ORR) is crucial for the development of high-efficiency electrochemical energy devices. Here, the highly efficient iron-doped nickel sulfide/cobalt sulfide heterostructure catalyst (Fe-NiS 2 /CoS 2 ) was successfully prepared via a combination of hydrothermal-sulfidation-reduction strategy. Physical characterizations coupled with electrochemical tests reveal that Fe doping plays a key role in the excellent performance of Fe-NiS 2 /CoS 2 by lowering charge transfer resistance, optimizing electronic structure, and promoting reaction kinetics synergistically. As a result, the Fe-NiS 2 /CoS 2 catalyst exhibits a bifunctional electrocatalytic reactivity with a low ΔE of 0.61 V, surpassing noble-metal-based catalyst and most of the reported iron-related sulfide bifunctional catalysts. Specifically, the catalyst exhibits low overpotentials of 265 mV at 10 mA cm −2 and 381 mV at 100 mA cm −2 for the OER, while maintaining an ORR E 1/2 of 0.88 V. Aqueous zinc-air battery (ZAB) based on Fe-NiS 2 /CoS 2 achieve the specific capacities of 678.5 mAh g Zn −1 and along with 200 h cycling stability. This work provides an effective approach to improving transition metal sulfides, with potential for broader application in OER/ORR-related energy technologies.
