This study explores a new approach to achieve a whitening effect on polyester fabric by utilizing a ground form of raw OB-1 (OB-1-G) in combination with dispersing agents. The whitening process parameters, such as whitening temperature, OB-1-G mass, and whitening time were optimized using the L 16 orthogonal array-based Taguchi methodology. The signal-to-noise ratio was carried out through a larger-is-better approach to augment the parameter responses, specifically the whiteness. The results suggest that the degree of whiteness of polyester fabric is significantly affected by the whitening treatment temperature (P < 0.05), with a contribution percentage of 93.87%. A whiteness index of 94.12 was achieved for the polyester fabric treated at the optimized conditions. The fabric treated with OB-1-G at the optimized conditions was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The investigation also included the correlation between the length of time spent in washing and rubbing, and their efficacy in achieving whitening outcomes. The research demonstrated the effectiveness of OB-1-G nanopowder in combination with dispersing agents as a fluorescent optical brightener for the optical brightening of polyester fiber with potential use in the textile industry on a larger scale.

Graphical A facile PVP assisted Zn 0.2 @ZIF-67 framework is thermally converted to micro-mesoporous carbon with abundant cobalt particles. Post phosphorus doping into carbon shells improves catalysts’ conductivity and modulates the electronic environment of Co element, facilitating efficient water splitting. The enhancement of electrocatalytic water splitting by modulating the intrinsic electronic environment of active sites has recently attracted lots of interest. Herein, cobalt-cobalt oxide (CoO x ) at carbons derived from metal-organic frameworks (Zn 0.2 @ZIF-67) have been modulated by using post-phosphine (P-CoO x /NCs), acid leaching (Co/NCs), and oxidation (O−CoO x /NCs) treatments. With the assistance of polyvinyl pyrrolidone, the resultant carbons obtain a high surface area (645.7 m 2 g −1 ) as well as a micro-/mesoporous system after carbonization at 920 °C. These advantages not only enhance the catalytic performance of catalysts, but also facilitate the charge transfer between interfaces towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). As a result, the constructed water splitting cell fabricated with 900P-CoO x /NCs requires a low overpotential (89 mV and 343 mV vs. reservable hydrogen electrode respectively) to drive HER and OER at 10 mA cm −2 , a low cell voltage (1.69 V), and a high stability with only 4.9 % decay after 15 hours operation in the alkaline medium.

Traditional hydrogels with a single-crosslinked network structure suffer from poor stretchability, low sensitivity, and easy contamination, which seriously affect their practical application in the strain sensor field. To overcome these shortcomings, herein, a multiphysical crosslinking strategy (ionic crosslinking and hydrogen bonding) was designed to prepare a hydrogel strain sensor based on chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (HACC)-modified P(AM-co-AA) (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid copolymer) hydrogels. The ionic crosslinking for the double-network P(AM-co-AA)/HACC hydrogels was achieved by an immersion method with Fe3+ as crosslinking sites, which crosslinked with the amino group (−NH2) on HACC and the carboxyl group (−COOH) on P(AM-co-AA) and enabled the hydrogels to recover and reorganize rapidly, resulting in a hydrogel-based strain sensor with excellent tensile stress (3 MPa), elongation (1390%), elastic modulus (0.42 MPa), and toughness (25 MJ/m3). In addition, the prepared hydrogel exhibited high electrical conductivity (21.6 mS/cm) and sensitivity (GF = 5.02 at 0–20% strain, GF = 6.84 at 20–100% strain, and GF = 10.27 at 100–480% strain). Furthermore, the introduction of HACC endowed the hydrogel with excellent antibacterial properties (up to 99.5%) and excellent antibacterial activity against bacteria of three forms, bacilli, cocci, and spores. The flexible, conductive, and antibacterial hydrogel can be applied as a strain sensor for real-time detection of human motions such as joint movement, speech, and respiration, which exhibits a promising application prospect in wearable devices, soft robotic systems, and other fields.

Tuning the microenvironment surrounding single atom metals is an effective but challenging way to regulate the performance of single atom catalysts (SACs). Herein, we prepared a series of P, N-abundant porous organic polymers (P&N-POPs) with diverse framework flexibility and coordination ability to serve as SACs’ carriers. The microenvironment (coordination site, coordination number) surrounding Rh and the equilibrium of ea / ee -HRh(CO) 2 P 2 active species were effectively regulated in Rh/P&N-POPs catalysts. Our study shows that the specific active ee -HRh(CO) 2 (P) 2 species confined in the flexible polymeric skeleton endowed the Rh/ m PPh 3 &PPD-POP with superior activity (TOF = 2000 h −1 ), selectivity of aldehydes (93.5 %), ratio of linear aldehyde to branched aldehyde (l/b ratio = 15.9), favorable stability (10 recycling runs without activity loss) and extensive substrate applicability (19 kinds of olefins) in hydroformylation reactions. Multiple characterization techniques (EXAFS, STEM, in-situ FTIR etc.) were employed to get insights into this effective strategy to regulate the performance of single atom catalysts (SACs).

High-efficiency photoelectrode played a significant role in photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) systems. In this study, a zinc-based metal-organic framework modified by carbon quantum dots (N-Zn-MOF/CQDs) and the BiVO 4 were respectively presented as the photocathode and photoanode of the PFC system toward Cr(Ⅵ) reduction. Various analytical techniques were utilized to characterize the physicochemical, optical and photoelectrochemical properties of the as-prepared samples. With the addition of CQDs, the visible-light response and charge separation rate were remarkably enhanced. In the PFC system, the circuit current density of 58.04 mA cm −2 and max power density of 1.35 mW cm −2 were achieved, which was superior to other reported PFC systems. Under optimized conditions, 100% Cr(Ⅵ) can be removed within 120 min of visible-light illumination. This work provided a new method to decorate the zinc-based metal−organic framework cathode to dramatically improve the photocatalytic performance.

MOFs/polymer hybrid membranes combine the special surface activity of MOFs and the excellent carries nature of porous polymer and thus exhibit unexpected adsorption/separation performances in the solid-phase extraction. In this paper, a new kind of MOFs/polymer composite membrane , MIL-68(Al)/PVDF have been fabricated for the first time through blending the MIL-68(Al) nanoparticles and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) casting solution and following the lyotropic phase transition. Some means such as SEM, XRD and FT-IR are used to character the structure of these hybrid membranes. The membrane performances including the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties, membrane porosity and membrane water flux are also measured. The effects of doping amount of MIL-68(Al) on the structure and performances of MIL-68(Al)/PVDF hybrid membranes are discussed. Two persistent organic pollutants : p -nitrophenol (PNP) and methylene blue (MB) are chosen as main adsorption objects to evaluate the adsorption activity of MIL-68(Al)/PVDF hybrid membranes. The influences of various conditions on the adsorption activities are investigated in detail and the optimum adsorption conditions are determined. All the MIL-68(Al)/PVDF hybrid membranes exhibit enhanced adsorption capacity compared to pristine PVDF, and the adsorption activities of hybrid membranes are promoted continually with the increasing doping contents of MIL-68(Al). The adsorption thermodynamics analysis indicates that the adsorption process is mainly characterized by Langmuir monolayer adsorption and chemical adsorption . The coordination bonding formed between NO 2 of PNP and Al(III) of MIL-68(Al), and the acid-base interaction between the sulfur of MB and Al(III) of MIL-68(Al) may be responsible to the highest removal efficiency of PNP and MB. The good dynamics adsorption and regeneration performances indicate the prospect applications of these MOFs/PVDF hybrid membranes in the separation of organic contaminants from industrial waste water.

In order to enhance the interfacial adhesion of poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) fibers to the rubber composites, a novel method to deposit multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) onto the surface of PPTA fibers has been proposed in this study. This chemical modification was performed through the introduction of epoxy groups by Friedel–Crafts alkylation on the PPTA fibers, the carboxylation of MWCNTs, and the ring-opening reaction between the epoxy groups and the carboxyl groups. The morphologies, chemical structures, and compositions of the surface of PPTA fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that MWCNTs were uniformly deposited onto the surface of PPTA fibers with the covalent bonds. The measurement of contact angles of the fibers with polar solvent and non-polar solvent indicated that the surface energy of deposited fibers significantly increased by 41.9% compared with the untreated fibers. An electronic tensile tester of single-filament and a universal testing machine were utilized to measure the strength change of the fibers after modification and the interfacial adhesion between the fibers and the rubber matrix, respectively. The results showed that the tensile strength had not been obviously reduced, and the pull-out force and peeling strength of the fibers to the rubber increased by 46.3% and 56.5%, respectively.Keywords:poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) fibers;multi-walled carbon nanotubes;surface properties;adhesive properties

It is desirable yet challenging to develop highly active and durable hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts with Pt-comparable activity for future energy devices. In this work, we report Ru2P nanoparticle decorated P/N dual-doped carbon nanofibers on carbon cloth (Ru2P@PNC/CC-900) as a highly efficient and durable hierarchical HER electrocatalyst in both acidic and alkaline media. Electrochemical tests show that this Ru2P@PNC/CC-900 possesses Pt-comparable HER activity to support 10 mA cm–2 HER current density at low overpotential of 15 and 50 mV in acidic and alkaline condition, respectively. Density functional theory calculations reveal that coupling Ru2P nanoparticles with heteroatom-doped carbon fibers leads to enhanced intrinsic HER activity. The integrative hierarchical architecture further endows high surface areas with good mechanical robustness to support abundant catalytically active sites and possesses excellent electrical conductivity and efficient access for mass transportation to facilitate the HER process.

In this study, the ion-gelation method was applied to fabricate novel Fe–carbon–bentonite–alginate beads (Fe 0 /C-BABs). Fe 0 /C-BABs could effectively control Fe release during persulfate (PS) activation in N -acetyl- p -aminophenol (APAP) oxidation. A novel two-stage approach that combined Fe 0 /C-BABs and an oyster-shell-filled bed (OSFB) column was developed to address the low pH and high Fe concentration of the effluent of the traditional PS process. The application of the Fe 0 /C-BABs and OSFB column regulated pH levels and Fe release during the advanced oxidation of APAP. The characteristics of Fe 0 /C-BABs were also investigated through scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The long-term operation performance of Fe 0 /C-BABs in a continuous fixed-bed reactor under simultaneous PS and APAP feeding was also evaluated. The effects of initial PS concentration, pH, fixed-bed weight, in-flow rate, and dissolved oxygen (DO) were investigated. Under selected conditions, 86.3% efficiency was achieved during the first stage of APAP degradation (effluent pH of 3.05, Fe contents: 106.25 mg L −1 ). Water quality improved after the effluent was passed through the OSFB column (effluent pH of 6.32, Fe contents: 21.43 mg L −1 ). Moreover, this study analyzed the free radicals and intermediates produced during APAP degradation to identify the possible routes of APAP degradation.

The selectivity of 3-nitrostyrene (NS) hydrogenation over 0.5 wt-% Pt catalysts supported on carbon materials can be switched simply by changing reduction temperature. When the reduction temperature was 150 °C, 1-ethyl-3-nitrobenzene (ENB) was mainly produced in a selectivity of 93% at a conversion of 95% (at 100 °C). When the reduction was conducted at a higher temperature of 450 °C, in contrast, the main product was switched to 3-aminostyrene (AS) in a selectivity of 96% at a conversion of 91%. That is, the Pt/C catalysts reduced at low and high temperatures could preferentially catalyze the hydrogenation of vinyl and nitro groups of NS, respectively. This switching of the product selectivity may be ascribed to actions of surface oxygen-containing functional groups and surface hetero P species. The quantity and nature of these surface species were examined in detail by a few different methods. For the low-temperature reduced catalyst, surface acidic groups present close to Pt nanoparticles (∼2 nm) would interact with the nitro group of a NS molecule and make its vinyl group more likely to interact with the surface active metal species of Pt nanoparticles; this facilitates the hydrogenation of the latter and produces ENB selectively. For the high-temperature reduced catalyst, however, P species would interact with Pt and form Pt-PO x complex, on which a NS molecule is likely to be adsorbed with its nitro group, facilitating the selective production of AS via its hydrogenation. It is demonstrated that surface functional groups and surface hetero atoms (like P), in addition to main active metal species (like Pt), should have direct actions in the catalysis for such a catalyst that exposes a larger quantity of surface functional groups and/or hetero atoms compared to the number of supported metal nanoparticles .
