Developing an ideal wound dressing that not only accelerates wound healing but also eliminates potential bacterial infections remains a difficult balancing act. This work reports the design of a light-programmable sodium alginate nanocomposite hydrogel loaded with BiOCl/polypyrrole (BOC/PPy) nanosheets for state-switchable wound healing promotion and bacterial infection elimination remotely. The nanocomposite hydrogel possesses programmable photoelectric or photothermal conversion due to the expanded light absorption range, optimized electron transmission interface, promoted photo-generated charge separation, and transfer of the BOC/PPy nanosheets. Under white light irradiation state, the nanocomposite hydrogel induces human umbilical vein endothelial cells migration and angiogenesis, and accelerates the healing efficiency of mouse skin in vivo. Under near-infrared light irradiation state, the nanocomposite hydrogel presents superior antibacterial capability in vitro, and reaches an antibacterial rate of 99.1% for Staphylococcus aureus infected skin wound in vivo. This light-programmable nanocomposite hydrogel provides an on-demand resolution of biological state-switching to balance wound healing and elimination of bacterial infection.

In this work, a hydrophilic polypyrrole carboxymethyl cellulose aerogel (PPY/CMC) with a 3D structure was prepared via in-situ polymerization of pyrrole monomers with carboxymethyl cellulose as the substrate. The adsorption experiments showed that tetracycline can be effectively removed in a wide range of pH (4–10), and the adsorption capacity was 689.39 mg/g when the pH value was 6. The pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir models better fitted the kinetic and isotherm data, which revealed that the adsorption was homogeneous and dominated by chemisorption. The experiment of adsorption thermodynamics showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. Zeta potential, FT-IR and XPS results indicated that the adsorption mechanism included π-π EDA interaction, hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction. Through Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Frontier Orbital Theory (FOT) simulation, the microscopic adsorption mechanism was further explored on the molecular and electronic scales. It is confirmed that TC was adsorbed onto PPY/CMC aerogels mainly through π-π EDA interaction in sandwich (S) configuration and parallel-displaced (PD) configuration, thus ensuring high adsorption efficiency. Compared with various adsorbent materials reported recently, the PPY/CMC aerogels have the advantages of higher adsorption capacity, excellent pH buffering capacity, simple preparation process and quickly removal of pollutants.

The adverse impact of particulate air pollution on human health 1 , 2 has prompted the development of purification systems that filter particulates out of air 3 , 4 , 5 . To maintain performance, the filter units must inevitably be replaced at some point, which requires maintenance, involves costs and generates solid waste 6 , 7 . Here we show that an ion-doped conjugated polymer-coated matrix infiltrated with a selected functional liquid enables efficient, continuous and maintenance-free air purification. As the air to be purified moves through the system in the form of bubbles, the functional fluid provides interfaces for filtration and for removal of particulate matter and pollutant molecules from air. Theoretical modelling and experimental results demonstrate that the system exhibits high efficiency and robustness: its one-time air purification efficiency can reach 99.6%, and its dust-holding capacity can reach 950 g m −2 . The system is durable and resistant to fouling and corrosion, and the liquid acting as filter can be reused and adjusted to also enable removal of bacteria or odours. We anticipate that our purification approach will be useful for the development of specialist air purifiers that might prove useful in a settings such as hospitals, factories and mines.

Herein, a novel molecular imprinting polypyrrole electrochemical sensor was fabricated based on a zirconia and carbon core–shell structure (ZrO2@C) and a nitrogen-doped graphene (NPG) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for ultrasensitive recognition of dopamine (DA). The NPG was prepared by a sacrificial-template-assisted pyrolysis method and ZrO2@C was synthesized via annealing treatment of a zirconium-based metal–organic framework (UiO-66). A convenient electropolymerization method was used to prepare the pyrrole (Py) conductive molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) in the presence of DA. The elution process of DA was performed by a simple overoxidation process under alkaline conditions. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used to assess the electrochemical performance of the sensors. The MIP-based electrochemical sensor with specific binding sites could be used for selective recognition of DA. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range of such a sensor was 5.0 × 10−9–1.0 × 10−4 mol L−1 and the detection limit was 3.3 × 10−10 mol L−1 (S/N = 3). This sensor exhibited suitable selectivity, stability, and reproducibility, which suggested that it could be a promising candidate for rapid diagnostic methods in dopamine investigations.

Multifunctional flexible devices for human motion detection and thermal management raised great attention as the problem of the aging population is becoming more and more serious. However, it is still a challenge to endow the devices with excellent stability and wide application scope. Here we prepared a hydrophobic and conductive fabric-based strain sensor for smart fabric via successively coating with polydopamine (PDA), polyaniline (PANI), polypyrrole (PPy), and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) through in-situ polymerization and dip-coating, which could be used for strain sensor and wearable heater both in air and underwater. The obtained sample exhibited a fast electrical response in 500 ms and could withstand 10,000 times stretching-releasing cycles, additionally, the sample exhibited satisfactory electro-thermal and photo-thermal performances. As a whole, the multifunctional fabric-based devices with excellent performances show great potential to be applied in medical monitoring and personal care, especially for aged and disabled persons.

Intelligent hydrogels are promising for biomimetic actuators, but acquiring actuations with both high speed and powerful force is still extremely difficult. Herein, a new robust polypyrrole (PPy)-coated copoly(isopropylacrylamide-4-benzoylphenyl acrylate) [P(NIPAM-ABP)] electrospun light-responsive hydrogel is explored. The (PPy)-coated P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel can be obtained via in-situ polymerization of pyrroles on the nanofiber-oriented electrospun P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel. Compared with original P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel, this PPy-coated P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel can integrate highly-enhanced mechanical strength (from 1.21 to 5.12 MPa of tensile strength) and ultrahigh-efficiency of photothermal conversion together. In addition, the orientation of P(NIPAM-ABP) nanofibers can still maintain well for programmable complex deformations. Consequently, the as-prepared robust bi-hydrogel actuator with ultrafast and complex deformations has been achieved, through bonding the PPy-P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel membrane with a polyethylene glycol diacrylate-cellulose nanofiber (PEGDA-CNF) composite hydrogel membrane via interfacial ultraviolet (UV) polymerization of PEGDA monomers. Several light-responsive biomimetic actuating devices have been achieved, which owning powerful force (can grab up 100 times of self-weight), rapid speed (1285.71°/s of folding) or precisely programmable complex deformations. Furthermore, two biomimetic devices with synergistic functions of the three advantages above have been explored, which can mimic the child’s sit-up and the starfish’s continuous crawling movement respectively. This work provides a robust remotely-controlled light-responsive hydrogel actuator with powerful force, ultrafast speed and programmable complex actuations, which will inspire the design and fabrication of novel soft biomimetic actuating materials and systems.

Constructing 3-D nanomaterial-based adsorbents with good mechanical properties has attracted increasing attention. This paper reports a simple strategy to prepare ultralight and superelastic 3-D aerogels as efficient adsorbents for heavy metal Cr(VI) in wastewater by in-situ loading of polypyrrole on cellulose acetate nanofibers followed by freeze-drying method. The obtained aerogel possesses obvious 3-D porous and cross-linked structure, in which polypyrrole is uniformly coated on the nanofiber surface. Besides, the aerogel shows good mechanical properties with high compressive strength of 14.49 kPa, and can be processed into any desired shape. Especially, due to the presence of large specific surface area and high porosity, the obtained nanofiber aerogel shows significant Cr(VI) adsorption with maximum adsorption capacity of 244.65 mg/g. The present work proposes a high-quality nanofiber aerogel for efficiently adsorbing Cr(VI).

Highly stretchable and conductive fibers as crucial components for stretchy electronic textiles have developed rapidly in recent years, benefiting from the design of stretchable structures. However, routes toward continuous production via simpler fabrication processes remain a huge challenge that has greatly limited its widespread application. In this work, we reported an intrinsically stretchable multifilament with both highly stretchable and conductive (537 S m −1 under 100 % strain) polypyrrole (PPy) coating enhanced by sodium sulfosalicylate (NaSSA) as a dopant. Based on this, a post-drawing method was further proposed to continuously fabricate stretchable conductors with PPy buckling on surface. The PU multifilament with buckle PPy coating (PU@bPPy) exhibited a high and ultra-stable conductance, showing initial conductivity at 529 S m −1 and only 3.5 % change in resistance after > 6500 stretching cycles at 50 % strain. Moreover, the PU@bPPy could be easily integrated into electronic textiles as stretchable electronic circuits and stretchable joule heaters.

The design of organic photocatalysts with visible-light-response is an important way to solve energy crisis and environmental pollution. Polypyrrole (PPy) as one of the conjugated polymers is a prospective photocatalyst material due to its excellent optical properties, easy synthesis and high environmental stability. In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and g-C3N4 were electrospun as a fiber membrane matrix. PPy was coated on the matrix by in situ polymerization of a pyrrole monomer using doped Fe3+ as an oxidant. PPy exhibited a broadband visible light absorption region and a narrow band gap which was conducive to improve visible light utilization. The separation efficiency of photogenerated e−–h+ pairs was improved by constructing a heterojunction between PPy and g-C3N4. The doping of Fe3+ as an electron scavenger further prevented the recombination of carriers. The PAN/g-C3N4-PPy-Fe3+ membrane showed highly efficient removal performance for both cationic and anionic dyes. Moreover, PAN/g-C3N4-PPy-Fe3+ exhibited excellent recyclability and stability. This work outlined an approach for designing a novel conjugated polymer based multi-component composite photocatalyst with visible light response.

The electrically dynamic regulation of plasmonic nanostructures provides a promising technology for integrated and miniaturized electro-optical devices. In this work, we systematically investigate the electrical regulation of optical properties of plasmonic Au nanodisk (AuND) arrays integrated with different conductive polymers, polypyrrole (PPy), polyaniline (PANI), and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), which show their respective superiority of electrical modulation by applying the appropriate low voltages. For the hybrid structure of polymer-coated AuND arrays, its reflection spectrum and corresponding structural color are dynamically modulated by altering the complex dielectric function of the covering nanometer-thick conductive polymers based on the electrically controlled redox reaction. Due to the distinct refractive index responses of different polymers on the external voltage, polymer-coated AuND arrays exhibit different spectral variations, response time, and cycle stability. As a result, the reflection intensity of PPy-coated AuND arrays is mainly tailored by increasing optical absorption of the PPy polymer over a broad spectral range, which is distinguished from the wavelength shift of the resonance modes of AuND arrays induced by the other two polymers. Additionally, AuND arrays integrated with both PANI and PEDOT polymers exhibit a rapid switching time of less than 50 ms, which is 5 times smaller than the case of the PPy polymer. Most importantly, PPy-coated AuND arrays exhibit excellent cycle stability over 50 cycles compared to the other two polymers integrated devices. This work demonstrates a valuable technique strategy to realize high-performance polymer-coated dynamically tunable nanoscale electro-optical devices, which has especially significance for smart windows or dynamic display applications.

Direct oxidative coupling of alcohols and amines is an environmental-benign and atomic-economy approach for imine synthesis. We disclosed that UiO-66 framework successfully confined Ru to single-atom scale with assistance of oxophilic Zn 2+ promoter. This RuZn@UiO-66 catalyst showed a highest TOF of 78 h -1 among all Ru catalysts in literature and attained > 99% yield to benzylideneaniline in the model reaction in an O 2 atmosphere at a low temperature without alkaline additives. In addition, this catalyst demonstrated satisfying gram-scale imine synthesis, wide substrate scope and stable reusability. Kinetic investigations and in situ characterizations allowed getting insights to active sites, amphoteric carrier and reaction mechanism. Dynamic interactions between Ru and Zn based on their ratios induced electron-deficient Ru 0 active sites promoted by oxophilic Zn 2+ species. Hence, primary alcohols can be efficiently converted to the corresponding aldehydes using molecular O 2 , i.e. , the rate-determining step. Besides, Zr 4+ -O 2- pairs on UiO-66 provided adequate acidic-basic sites for the tandem catalysis.

Catalytic pyrolysis of biomass for efficient N-heterocycles production is highly promising but extremely challenging. Herein, catalytic co-pyrolysis of glycerol and cellulose under ammonia atmosphere was proposed to enhance the N-heterocycles yield. First, a solvolysis effect of glycerol, which could improve the thermal depolymerization of cellulose, was observed in thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). After that, the major influential factors, including Si/Al ratio, reaction temperature, and glycerol-to-cellulose (Gly:Cel) ratio, were investigated systematically. The N-heterocycles yield, as well as the comprehensive synergies of feedstocks, reached their maximum value under the conditions of Si/Al = 85, 550 ℃, and Gly:Cel = 5:1. The best synergistic extents for pyrroles , pyridines, and indoles were 105.3%, 71.3%, and 38.8%, respectively. The mechanism insight showed that, the thermal decomposition of cellulose was promoted while the coking of oxygenated molecules was suppressed during the catalytic co-pyrolysis process. Consequently, more oxygenated molecules were generated and retained for further catalytic conversion into imine intermediates and N-heterocycles.
