Nanofiber-like and nanorod-like boehmite aerogels (BAs) were synthesized by using 1D boehmite nanofibers and nanorods as building units and chitosan as binder via sol-gel process and freeze-drying method. Two kinds of boehmite sols were both gelled via ammonia vapor gelation method. Nanofiber-like building units interconnect and tangle to form high-surface-area porous structures of BA-160, while nanorod-like ones self-accumulate and overlap to construct large-pore-diameter skeletons of BA-200. The compressive property of BAs mainly originates from the interaction of overlap joints between building units, and the overlap joints among nanofibers provide more anti-pressure positions than the ones among nanorods. The skeletons are further enhanced under the help of chitosan macromolecules due to the improved polycondensation between aluminoxane via ammonia vapor. With the increase of chitosan content, the mechanical properties of BAs increase, but the thermal conductivities decrease. All of ultralight BAs can be regarded as good thermal insulation materials.

Boehmite sols turning into gels were induced by ammonia vapor, which is beneficial to homogeneous gelation of boehmite sols. Two kinds of BAs possess different mechanical properties due to different porous structural characteristics. All of BAs present the features of ultralight and thermal insulation.

In this paper, phenol was used as the material to be treated, and HMS molecular sieve was used as the catalyst for the catalytic treatment of the material. HMS, Ti-HMS, Ce-HMS and composite modified Ce/Ti-HMS molecules were used to prepare sieved catalysts. Simulated phenol-containing wastewater with phenol as the main component is treated. The structure of the molecular sieve and its elements and contents were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope; the morphology of atoms or molecules in the material was characterized by X-ray diffractometer; the chemical bonds in the molecular structure were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The change of vibration peak was analyzed, and the change of surface and skeleton structure was analyzed; the absorbance of the substance to be tested to visible light was measured by ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance method. The experiment was optimized by response surface methodology, and the oxidation of Ce 3+ was detected by infrared tracking, and the reaction mechanism of phenol catalytic degradation was analyzed. The active sites that determine the catalytic performance of the composite catalyst were studied by DFT calculations, which further confirmed that the bimetallic modified zeolite has better catalytic effect.

Wastewater containing quinoline has become a common pollutant in water and soil environments, which poses a threat to human health due to its carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and mutagenicity. Quinoline’s stability and toxicity hinders its degradation by conventional physicochemical and biological methods. In this contribution, Fe-Co-Bi/kaolin particle electrodes were prepared for the efficient degradation of quinoline in wastewater, and characterized by using scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, pyridine-IR, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and four-probe resistivity test. Parameters affecting the degradation efficiency were optimized to be the particle electrode dosage of 40 g/L, pH 3.5, H 2 O 2 addition of 67.6 mmol/L, electrical conductivity of 12.7 ms/cm, and voltage of 20 V. The constructed three-dimensional catalytic particle electrode system (3D-CPE) achieved 92.1% removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) under the optimal conditions. Hydroxyl radicals (•OH) generated in the 3D-CPE process were identified by radical scavenging tests and electron spin response analysis. To unravel the degradation mechanism, the intermediate products were identified by using high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The degradation mechanism was discussed with the help of theoretical calculation.

Thermal stability is the main problem affecting the application of inorganic fluorescent materials in high-power LED devices. Here, we have synthesized a green light-emitting phosphor Na 2 Ca 1-x Ge 6 O 14 : xTb 3+ with high luminescence thermal stability mainly through high temperature solid-state reaction. By changing the concentration of doping ions, the traps concentration of the material can be increased, so that the thermal stability of the material can be improved, which is attributed to the traps compensating greater than the thermal quenching effect. This method of utilizing traps to improve thermal stability provides a potential synthesis strategy for improving high-power white LED used in automotive.

Cellulose-based matrices are expected to be ideal enzyme carriers due to their sustainability and biocompatibility. However, the linkages between immobilized enzymes and celluloses often suffer from low-density and non-biodegradability, leading to inefficient loading of enzymes as well as persistent generation of solid wastes after reuse. In the present study, cellulose-based functional materials with degradable polycarbonates brushes have been successfully synthesized as enzyme carriers via ring-opening polymerization of 5-methyl-5-allyloxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one (MAC) following with ally epoxidation of MAC units. After covalent bonding with laccase, the resulting HPC-PMAC-Laccase could assemble in aqueous solution to form spherical nanoparticles with an enzyme immobilization efficiency of 88%. The immobilized laccase showed more tolerance towards pH and high temperature compared with free laccase. Moreover, the immobilized laccase demonstrated effective removal efficiency of bisphenol A and reached 83% in 3 h. After repeated usage for 8 times, the HPC-PMAC-Laccase still maintained relatively high enzyme activity. Especially, the polycarbonates brushes in the enzyme carriers could be totally hydrolyzed in 12 h to achieve its degradable property.

Renewable bamboo materials have broad application prospects in the fields of structural construction, insulation and acoustic management due to their multi-layer porous structure, attractive directional layout texture, ultra-fast growth rate, and excellent mechanical strength. However, the annual loss of bamboo material due to the microbial corrosion accounts for one-tenth of the total output. In this work, the hydrophobic associating hydrogel (HAH) with chitosan (CS) and zinc oxide (ZnO) has been in situ filled in the micro-nano-scale pores of natural bamboo materials to significantly enhance their anti-microbial fouling performance. It is difficult for the mildew and oxygen in the air to come into the bamboo materials due to the artificial hydrogel barrier layer. CS and ZnO nanomaterials further increase the anti-bacterial rate of bamboo composites to 100%. Based on the physical crosslinking between the polyacrylamide (PMA) of HAH hydrogel and natural bamboo fibers, CS and ZnO bacteriostatic media are not easy to be lost from the bamboo materials. The 100% anti-bacterial rate of the bamboo composite materials can be maintained for at least 56 days. Therefore, the bamboo composites have great application potential as building materials in the future. Graphical abstract In-situ polymerization method was used to fill the micropores of bamboo with super-elastic hydrogel to enhance its anti-microbial fouling performance.

High entropy oxides (HEOs), as a new type of single-phase multielement solid solution materials, have shown many attractive features and promising application prospect in the energy storage field. Herein, six-element HEOs (CoNiZnFeMnLi) 3 O 4 and (CoNiZnCrMnLi) 3 O 4 with spinel structure are successfully prepared by conventional solid-phase method and present outstanding lithium storage performances due to the synergy effect of various electrochemically active elements and the entropy stabilization. By contrast, (CoNiZnFeMnLi) 3 O 4 delivers higher initial discharge specific capacity of 1104.3 mAh·g −1 , better cycle stability (84% capacity retention after 100 cycles at 100 mA·g −1 ) and rate performance (293 mAh·g −1 at 2000 mA·g −1 ) in the half-cell. Moreover, the full-cell assembled with (CoNiZnFeMnLi) 3 O 4 and LiCoO 2 provides a reversible specific capacity of 260.2 mAh·g −1 after 100 cycles at 500 mA·g −1 . Ex situ X-ray diffraction reveals the electrochemical reaction mechanism of HEOs (CoNiZnFeMnLi) 3 O 4 , and the amorphous phase and the large amount of oxygen vacancies were obtained after the initial discharge process, which are responsible for the excellent cycle and rate performance. This research puts forward fresh insights for the development of advanced energy storage materials for high-performance batteries. Graphical Abstract

This paper proposes the preparation of a S-Se-Ti 3 C 2 T x /TiO 2 cathode by etching Ti 3 AlC 2 with hydrofluoric acid and doping with selenium (Se). Through an electrochemical performance test, selenium is doped into the active material sulfur and forms a sulfur-selenium compound to compensate for the ‘chemical inertness’ of the elemental sulfur, thereby increasing the utilization rate of the active material. Taking advantage of the ability of TiO 2 to absorb polysulfide compounds and the high conductivity of carbides, the Ti 3 C 2 T x composite material, modified with TiO 2 nanodots, is constructed in situ as a sulfur-selenium composite material carrier, achieving a high sulfur content of 80%. S-Se-Ti 3 C 2 Tx/TiO 2 is used as the cathode, and the initial discharge specific capacity is as high as 1073 mAh g −1 , which improves the utilization of active materials and effectively inhibits the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfide intermediates.

Due to the outstanding properties comprised of thermal, anti-corrosion and excellent processing properties, the polyurethane coating has received attention from many researchers. However, absence of self-healing capacity limited their applications. In the present work, a self-healing polyurethane (PU) was developed for protective coating via Diels–Alder reaction. Moreover, incorporation of Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) by in situ polymerization method in the PU enhances the mechanical properties. The macro- and micro-mechanical properties of materials were investigated by tensile and nanoindentation measurement, these results show the composites displayed higher tensile strength (34.2 MPa) and hardness (5.13 MPa) in comparison with pure PU (22.9 MPa and 4.24 MPa). The tensile and POM results indicated that the PU and composites have excellent self-healing property. The simulative salt spray tests indicated the coating possessed an excellent corrosion protection property. Therefore, this work is promising for the self-healing ability protective polymer coating.

Background Diabetic wound healing remains a challenge because of its susceptibility to drug-resistant bacterial infection and its persistent proinflammatory state. Switching from proinflammatory M1 macrophages (Mφs) to proregenerative M2 dominant Mφs in a timely manner accelerates wound healing by coordinating inflammatory, proliferative, and angiogenic processes. Methods We propose a sequential photothermal antibacterial and subsequent M2 Mφ polarization strategy based on nanofibers (NFs) consisting of polydopamine (PDA) coating on curcumin (Cur) nanocrystals to treat Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected diabetic wounds. Results The PDA/Cur NFs showed excellent photothermal conversion and antibacterial effects due to the PDA shell under laser irradiation, consequently resulting in the release of the inner Cur with the ability to promote cell proliferation and reinforce the M2 Mφ phenotype in vitro. In vivo studies on MRSA-infected diabetic wounds showed that PDA/Cur NFs not only inhibited MRSA infection but also accelerated the wound regeneration process. Furthermore, the NFs displayed the ability to promote the M2 Mφ phenotype with enhanced collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and cell proliferation. Conclusion Overall, the NFs displayed great potential as promising therapeutics for healing infected diabetic wounds through a sequential photothermal antibacterial and M2 Mφ polarization strategy.

In this study, the MOF-5/BiOBr photocatalyst with microsphere structure was synthesized by hydrothermal method for the first time. The crystal structure, morphology, photoelectric performance and photocatalytic activity of the samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS and electrochemistry. The results show that the synthesized MOF-5/BiOBr photocatalyst exhibits better photocatalytic performance than pure MOF-5 and BiOBr under simulated sunlight. The efficiency of Rhodamine B (RhB) removal based MOF-5/BiOBr composite (MOF-5 with mass ratio of MOF-5/BiOBr = 20 wt% of) reached 99.7%. The possible photocatalytic mechanism is discussed through the capture experiment of active species. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of the MOF-5/BiOBr composite may be related to the interaction between BiOBr and MOF-5 and the type II charge transfer path. The catalyst has simple preparation process, low cost, high activity under natural light, and high efficiency, and is expected to play a role in the treatment of environmental wastewater. This work provides a new insight for designing MOF-5 based photocatalyst.
