This paper developed a facile method to synthesize CdTe@SiO 2 /Ag nanocomposites by coupling uniform Ag nanoparticles on core–shell CdTe@SiO 2 quantum dots via simple impregnation of CdTe@SiO 2 functionalized with amino groups in Ag nanoparticle sols. The obtained CdTe@SiO 2 /Ag nanocomposites show efficient fluorescence and effective antibacterial activities. Besides, because of the existence of SiO 2 , the CdTe@SiO 2 /Ag nanocomposites manifest strong adhesive affinity and chemical stability, allowing the long-term preservation of fluorescence and affording affinity with latent fingerprints. Thus, the CdTe@SiO 2 /Ag nanocomposites are explored as alternative fluorescent markers for latent fingerprint detection to provide better resolution, high sensitivity, and antibacterial activities. Meanwhile, the CdTe@SiO 2 /Ag nanocomposites may be used as alternative fluorescent markers for enhanced latent fingerprint detection on a variety of object surfaces in criminal science for individual identification.

Sphere-shape Eu(DBM) 3 Phen@SiO 2 nanoparticles were fabricated by employing a modified alkaline catalyzed hydrolysis and precipitation method. The silica coated on the particles surface was obtained by means of hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). In this study, the particles morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the surface composition of samples was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). It is confirmed that the SiO 2 shell has been coated on the rare earth complexes successfully. Moreover, the near-infrared photoluminescence emission analysis on the nanoparticles showed that the SiO 2 shell would increase the luminescence intensity of Eu(DBM) 3 Phen. This is primarily due to the reason that SiO 2 shell with chemical inertness can effectively reduce the ion Eu 3+ non-radiation transition probabilities, as well as the probability of rare earth luminescence quenching caused by the external medium.

Superhydrophobic and highly oleophobic coatings have the potential for self-cleaning, anti-icing, optoelectronic and antifouling application. In this study, emulsion polymerization and sol-gel methods were employed to prepare a new superhydrophobic and highly oleophobic coating. The structures, surface morphology and the properties of the coating were analyzed by IR, SEM, TG and CA. Pencil scratch test and cross-cut tape test were performed to evaluate the coating mechanical properties. The coating exhibited superhydrophobicity with a water contact angle of greater than 150° and a sliding angle of 4.42° as well as high oleophobicity as demonstrated by a diiodomethane contact angle of 147.41° and a sliding angle of 9.85°. The coating exhibited 6H pencil hardness and 5B cross-cut adhesion properties. These interesting and robust properties make them promising candidates for some applications.

In this study, a new method for synthesizing Ag-NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@ SiO2nanocomposites was introduced. Using a hydrothermal method, the synthesized Yb3+- and Er3+-codoped NaYF4up-conversion luminescent materials and Ag nanoparticles were doped into up-conversion nanomaterials and coated with SiO2up-conversion nanomaterials. This material is known as Ag-UCNPs@SiO2, it improves both the luminous intensity because of the doped Ag nanoparticles and has low cytotoxicity because of the SiO2coating. The morphology of UCNPs was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the mapping confirmed the successful doping of Ag nanoparticles. Successful coating of SiO2was confirmed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Fluorescence spectra were used to compare changes in luminescence intensity before and after doping Ag nanoparticles. The reason for the increase in luminescence intensity after doping with Ag nanoparticles was simulated using first-principles calculations. The cytotoxicity of Ag-UCNPs@SiO2was tested via the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method, and its imaging ability was characterized using the micro-CT method.Keywords:up-conversion;nanomaterials;CT imaging

Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 magnetic nanoparticles modified by grafting poly(1-vinylimidazole) oligomer (FSPV) was fabricated as a novel adsorbent to remove Hg(II) from water. Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy confirmed the successful grafting of oligomer , and thermogravimetric analysis showed FSPV had a high grafting yield with organic content of 22.8%. Transmission electron microscopy image displayed that FSPV particles were polymer-coated spheres with size of 10–20 nm. With saturation magnetization of 44.7 emu/g, FSPV particles could be easily separated from water with a simple magnetic process in 5 min. The Hg(II) adsorption capacity of FSPV was found to be 346 mg/g at pH 7 and 25 °C in 10 mM NaCl. Moreover, the removal of Hg(II) by FSPV was not obviously affected by solution pH (from 4 to 10) or humic acid (up to 8 mg/L as TOC). The presence of seven common ions including Na + , K + , Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Cl − , NO 3 − , and SO 4 2 − (up to 100 mM ionic strength) slightly increased the adsorption of Hg(II) by FSPV. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis revealed that the N atom of the imidazole ring was responsible for the bonding with Hg(II), whereas the bonding of Hg with N did not result in cleavage of Hg–Cl bond in HgCl 2 and HgClOH. The regeneration of Hg(II)-loaded FSPV could be achieved with 0.5 M HCl rapidly in 10 min, and the removal of Hg(II) maintained above 94% in five consecutive adsorption–desorption cycles. Therefore, FSPV could serve as a promising adsorbent for Hg(II) removal from water.

Stretchable encapsulation plays a crucial role in expanding the applications of flexible electronics, particularly the large-area flexible displays. In this work, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) hybrid films with high stretchability, excellent transparency, and good barrier property are achieved by a simple process of SiO 2 doping and atomic layer infiltration (ALI). The doped SiO 2 improves the mechanical property and serves as reaction sites for the Al 2 O 3 infiltration. A clear “nucleation-filling-coating” mechanism of Al 2 O 3 ALI is proposed and elaborated in detail by in situ quartz crystal microbalance. The optimized PDMS hybrid films exhibit a relatively low water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) value of 1.81 × 10 −3 g m −2 day −1 and excellent mechanical reliability, where after 1000 cycles of the fatigue stretching test at 1% tensile strain the WVTR only slightly increases to 2.01 × 10 −3 g m −2 day −1 . Furthermore, the patterned quantum dots encapsulated with PDMS hybrid films still retain more than 50% photoluminescent intensity even after the stretching and storage in deionized water for 2400 h, which is ≈80 times longer than the pristine ones. Therefore, the proposed combined method of SiO 2 doping and ALI modification has great and practical implications for stretchable encapsulations for future flexible electronics.

Hydraulic fracturing has been proposed as a potential technology for the development of low-permeability oil reservoirs and also has promising application prospects offshore. In this study, a novel SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based temperature-resistant clean fracturing fluid was formulated. The fracturing fluid main agents, additives and reducing agents were screened. Besides, the physical and chemical properties (rheology) as well as application (i.e., sand-carrying, gel-breaking, dynamic fluid loss, dynamic damage and anti-swelling) performance of the proposed SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based temperature-resistant clean fracturing fluid were systematically investigated. It was revealed that 3.2 wt% AASB-17+1.92 wt% NaSal+0.1 wt% SC-107+0.1 wt% TS3 was the optimal SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based clean fracturing fluid system formula. The SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based temperature-resistant clean fracturing fluid exhibited remarkable rheological characteristics , the temperature and shear resistance was increased by 28 %, with a maximum temperature resistance of 90ºC. This system can be applied to the fracturing development of most oil reservoirs in the Bohai Bay. In addition, the presence of SiO 2 nanoparticles significantly improved the sand-carrying properties of the proposed clean fractuirng fluid system. The experimental results also suggested that the SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based temperature-resistant clean fracturing fluid showed excellent performance of shear recovery (fixed shear viscosity recovery rate was 100 %), gel breaking (30 min,1 mPa·s), filter loss ( C w =4.75×10 −4 m/min 1/2 ), anti-swelling (anti-swelling rate was 77.78 %) and salt tolerance. This study provides fundamental technical support for the application of SiO 2 -enhanced seawater-based temperature-resistant clean fracturing fluid in offshore fracturing.

Dust on outdoor glass will significantly reduce glass transmittance in various applications and even damage solar cell panels. Here, the effects of Sb doping on the structure and photoelectric properties of a Sb-doped SnO 2 –SiO 2 (ATO-SiO 2 ) film prepared on a glass substrate with a sol-gel method and the dust removal performance of the resulting film were studied. The results show that the Sb-doped SnO 2 –SiO 2 film consists of a SnO 2 tetragonal rutile phase, but the doped Sb decreases the sample crystallinity. With an increase in the Sb doping concentration, two lattice parameters of the ATO-SiO 2 film, a and c , show “M"-shaped changes. The nanoparticle size first decreases and subsequently increases when the Sb doping concentration is over 6 mol%. The transmittance of the substrate glass coated with this film in the visible wavelength range (380–780 nm) decreases from 86.3% to 82.7%. The square resistance first decreases and subsequently increases, while the dust removal performance first increases and subsequently decreases. At a 12 mol% Sb doping concentration, the square resistance is minimal (4.64 × 10 6 Ω/□). The maximal dust removal performance is 64%.

CsPbX 3 (X = Cl, Br, I) all-inorganic perovskite quantum dots have attracted extensive attention from researchers recently. However, the further development is confined by serious stability problems. In this work, the CsPbBr 3 QDs@SiO 2 /EVA films were prepared by supersaturated recrystallization, and SEM, EDS, XRD, FT-IR and PL were used to study microstructure, phase composition, and optical properties. Results show that during the preparation process, the amounts of precursor added would affect the fluorescence emission intensity of materials. The preparation method of films is simple, easy to operate, low cost, and beneficial to commercial large-scale production. In a typical synthesis, PbBr 2 and CsBr are dissolved in DMF, and then oleic acid (OA) and oleylamine (OAm) as ligands are added to stabilize the DMF−PbBr 2 −CsBr precursor solution. When the addition of TEOS is 0.06 mL, the PL peak strength of prepared films is higher and the thickness of CsPbBr 3 QDs@SiO 2 /EVA films is about 100 μm and flexible enough to be bent. At room temperature, the retention of fluorescence intensity of films is 67.4% after 30 d in the air, the retention is 63.6% after 40 h in the water, and the retention is 72.1% after 40 h under the UV light. EVA resins and SiO 2 coating can effectively isolate the contact between quantum dots and moisture and delay the intrusion of oxygen, which significantly improves the stability of pure quantum dots.

Magnetic aqueous ammonia (MAA) was prepared as a magnetic extractant for dispersive microextraction of petroleum acids (PAs). The amount of extractant in MAA was custom-made by a simple approach. In the MAA composed of an aqueous ammonia coating and Fe3O4@SiO2 core, the coating is a base extractant that can selectively extract acids, while the magnetic core serves as a support to achieve dispersion as well as rapid magnetic retrieval of the extractant during the extraction processes. This is the first use of reusable, stable and modifiable Fe3O4@SiO2 as a support instead of bare Fe3O4 in a magnetic particle assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction technique. The parameters that affect extraction efficiency were investigated. The sampling step as well as the desorption step can be completed in 2 min. The linear ranges are 5–5000 ng g−1, while the limits of quantification range from 2.5 to 6.2 ng g−1. The recoveries in spiked crude oil samples are in the range of 79.1% to 112.1% with relative standard deviations less than 11.3% (intra-day) and 13.4% (inter-day). Finally, the proposed method was applied to the analysis of PAs in diluted crude oils with different maturities. In comparison to the existing methods for extraction of PAs, the proposed method provides superior performances including high throughput (12-well plate), high degree of sample clean-up, and low consumption of separation material, solvent and time.

Supported and bulk phase catalysts are both extensively used in hydrogenation reactions, possess distinct strengths and limitations. Aiming to create a catalyst that combines the benefits of both, a series of NiMoW/SiO 2 catalysts were synthesized with varied metal loadings using SiO 2 supports characterized by different pore structures. The catalytic activities of these catalysts were evaluated using 1-methylnaphthalene, dibenzothiophene and quinoline as model compounds. Comprehensive microstructural characterization was performed through ICP-OES, N 2 physisorption, HRTEM, SEM, and XPS techniques. The investigation revealed that both the catalytic and microstructural properties of the catalysts gradually changed from the supported catalysts to the bulk catalysts with the gradual increase of the metal loadings. This transition was accompanied by a significant enhancement in activity and hydrogenation selectivity compare to the supported catalysts. Nonetheless, this catalyst preserved the benefits of a superior pore structure, straightforward preparation methods and excellent regeneration.

In this study, CuO@SiO 2 core-shell catalysts were successfully synthesized and applied to efficiently remove hazardous gaseous pollutant arsine (AsH 3 ) by catalytic oxidation under low-temperature and low-oxygen conditions for the first time. In typical experiments, the CuO@SiO 2 catalysts showed excellent AsH 3 removal activity and stability under low-temperature and low-oxygen conditions. The duration of the AsH 3 conversion rate above 90 % for the CuO@SiO 2 catalysts was 39 h, which was markedly higher than that of other catalysts previously reported in the literature. The considerable catalytic activity and stability were attributed to the protection and confinement effects of the SiO 2 shell, which resulted in highly dispersed CuO nanoparticles . Meanwhile, the strong interaction between the CuO core and SiO 2 shell further facilitated the formation of active species such as coordinatively unsaturated Cu 2+ and chemisorbed oxygen. The accumulation of oxidation products (As 2 O 3 and As 2 O 5 ) on the interface between the CuO core and SiO 2 shell and the pore channels of the SiO 2 shell is the main cause of catalysts deactivation . Furthermore, through combined density functional theory (DFT) calculations and characterization methods, a reaction pathway including gradual dehydrogenation (AsH 3 *→AsH 2 *→AsH*→As*) and gradual oxidation (2As*→As*+AsO*→2AsO*→As 2 O 3 ) for the catalytic oxidation of AsH 3 on CuO (111) surface was constructed to clarify the detailed reaction mechanism. The CuO@SiO 2 core-shell catalysts applied in this study could provide a powerful method for developing AsH 3 catalysts from multiple know AsH 3 removal systems.
