Z-type 2D/2D C, N, S co-doped TiO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 (DTCN) photocatalysts possessing high catalytic activity were prepared via a simple ultrasonic recombination method. The catalysts’ microscopic morphology, crystal structure, chemical composition, and optical properties were investigated with scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ultraviolet–visible tests. The photocatalytic activity was also assessed via the degradation of the organic pollutant RhB. The results showed that DTCN could achieve 85.3% degradation of the target pollutant within 60 min, which was 2.47 times (34.5%) and 1.76 times (48.5%) more than TiO 2 and g-C 3 N 4 . The first-order kinetic constants of DTCN reached 0.02838, which was 4.11 and 2.66 times that of TiO 2 and g-C 3 N 4 . Nonmetallic C, N, S (CNS) co-doping effectively improved sunlight utilization of TiO 2 nanosheets through the generation of impurity bands in the forbidden band area. The Z-type heterojunction formed via the coupling of g-C 3 N 4 and CNS–TiO 2 promoted the separation of photoinduced carriers and improved the charge transfer efficiency, boosting the TiO 2 photocatalytic performance. Furthermore, the 2D–2D heterojunction provided a high-speed transport channel for charges. Graphical Abstract Z-type 2D–2D DTCN nanosheet heterojunctions were successfully fabricated. Nonmetallic CNS co-doped effectively improved sunlight utilization of TiO 2 nanosheets through the generating of impurity bands in the forbidden band area. Furthermore, the Z-type heterojunction formed via the coupling of g-C 3 N 4 and CNS–TiO 2 promoted the photoinduced carrier separation and improved the charge transfer efficiency, so boosting the TiO 2 photocatalytic performance.

Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) contains various metal/metalloid ions such as Fe, Cu, and As, which all impact seriously on mine ecosystems. Currently, the commonly used chemical methods for treating AMD may cause secondary pollution to appear in the environment. In this study, one-step simultaneous biomass synthesis of iron nanoparticles (Fe NPs) using tea extracts for the removal of heavy metals/metalloids in AMD is proposed. Characterizations revealed that the Fe NPs presented severely agglomerated particles with an average particle size of 119.80 ± 4.94 nm, on which various AMD-derived metal(loid)s, including As, Cu, and Ni, were uniformly dispersed. The biomolecules participating in the reaction in the tea extract were identified as polyphenols, organic acids, and sugars, which acted as complexing agents , reducing agents, covering/stabilizing agents, and promoted electron transfer . Meanwhile, the best reaction conditions (reaction time = 3.0 h, volume ratio of AMD and tea extract = 1.0:1.5, concentration of extract = 60 g/L, and T = 303 K) were obtained. Finally, the simultaneous formation of Fe NPs and their removal of heavy metals/metalloids from AMD was proposed, mainly involving the formation of Fe NPs and adsorption, co-precipitation, and reduction processes of heavy metals/metalloids.

This study proposes a nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon dot (N/S-CD)-based FRET ratiometric fluorescence aptasensing strategy modulated with entropy-driven DNA amplifier for sensitive and accurate detection of ochratoxin A (OTA). In the strategy, a duplex DNA probe containing OTA aptamer and complementary DNA (cDNA) is designed as a recognition and transformation element. Upon sensing of target OTA, the cDNA was liberated, and triggered a three-chain DNA composite-based entropy-driven DNA circuit amplification, making CuO probes anchor on a magnetic bead (MB). The CuO-encoded MB complex probe is finally turned into abundant Cu 2+ , which oxidizes o-phenylenediamine (oPD) to generate 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) with yellow fluorescence and further triggers FRET between the blue fluorescent N/S-CDs and DAP. The changes in ratiometric fluorescence are related to the OTA concentration. Originating from the synergistic amplifications from the entropy-driven DNA circuits and Cu 2+ amplification, the strategy dramatically enhanced detection performance. A limit of detection as low as 0.006 pg/mL of OTA was achieved. Significantly, the aptasensor can visually evaluate the OTA via on-site visual screening. Moreover, the high-confidence quantification of the OTA in real samples with results consistent with that of the LC-MS method indicated that the proposed strategy has practical application prospects for sensitive and accurate quantification in food safety.

It is an effective strategy to improve photocatalytic degradation performance by constructing step scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction photocatalysts with superior photo-redox capacity and high charge transfer efficiency. In this study, a series of two-dimensional/two-dimensional (2D/2D) La 2 Ce 2 O 7 /g-C 3 N 4 (LCO/CN) S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts were synthesized via in-situ solid-phase sintering by regulating the mass ratio of raw materials. The large junction area between La 2 Ce 2 O 7 nanosheets and ultra-thin graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) endows the composite with significantly enhanced separation and transfer efficiency of photogenerated carriers within a satisfactory light response region. The LCO/CN-2 composite not only shows the highest photocatalytic activity with a reaction rate constant of 0.02701 min −1 to degrade Rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation for 90 min but also demonstrates stable reusability after four runs. Moreover, based on the Mott-Schottky calculations, radical trapping experiments, and ESR analysis,·O 2- and·OH are identified as the main active species, and an S-scheme charge transfer mechanism is suggested to explain the enhanced photocatalytic activity. This work inspires the application of fluorite-type photocatalysts to wastewater purification and environmental restoration.

Aurivillius phases with narrow band gaps have attracted extensive interest in the field of photocatalysis, however, they exhibit poor activity due to the low utilization of photogenerated carriers. Herein, a series of S-scheme C3N4@Bi m+1 Fe m-3 Ti 3 O 3m+3 (m = 4, 5, 6) heterojunctions with two-dimensional structures were synthesized by simple two-step method. Compared with single materials, the composites exhibit excellent photocatalytic tetracycline degradation under visible light, and 91.8% of tetracycline can be degraded accompanied with 81.2% of TOC removal within 120 min over C 3 N 4 @Bi 5 FeTi 3 O 15 . The enhanced photocatalytic performance is due to strong interface interaction, high conductivity, and efficient charge separation ability. The mechanism analysis indicates that the C 3 N 4 @Bi 5 FeTi 3 O 15 heterojunction follows an S-scheme heterojunction mechanism with a strong interfacial internal electric field directed from C 3 N 4 to Bi 5 FeTi 3 O 15 , thus, the photogenerated electrons in Bi 5 FeTi 3 O 15 move toward C 3 N 4 , which retains high oxidation ability of Bi 5 FeTi 3 O 15 and high reduction ability of C 3 N 4 to efficiently produce the reactive species, such as O 2 − · and ·OH.

Graphene-based materials have been regarded recently as a promising substance for electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices owing to their unique structure and extraordinary properties. Herein, an enormously facile one-step pyrolysis approach is reported for the fabrication of ternary (P,S,N)-doped graphene, which is further investigated as an efficient metal-free electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Furthermore, optimized ternary-doped graphene can deliver excellent ORR catalytic activity that favors the four-electron ORR process and outstanding long-term durability (90.54% current retention after 20000 s which is far superior to that of commercial Pt/C) owing to the preferable synergetic coupling effect between P, S and N. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to reveal the synergetic coupling effect between doping elements in the ORR process. This work provides an extremely simple one-step pyrolysis method for the synthesis of P,S,N-doped graphene for electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices.

The development of high-performance EP composites with high glass transition temperature (T g ), excellent flame retardancy, and UV resistance is a challenging topic in the flame retardancy community. In this work, a bio-based phosphorus/nitrogen/sulfur (P/N/S) containing flame retardant (FDI) was prepared from furfural, 2-amino-5-nitrothiazole, and DOPO. It was applied to improve the flame retardant, dielectric, and UV-resistant properties of EP. Thanks to the combination of phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur in FDI, the EP/FDI composites showed superior flame retardancy. Only adding 5 wt% FDI made EP achieve UL-94 V-0 flammability rating with a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 27%. Meanwhile, EP/FDI-5% composite showed significant reduction of 65.1% and 33.6% in total smoke production (TSP) and the peak heat release rate (pHRR), respectively. The flame-retardant mechanisms of EP/FDI thermosets were investigated by residual char photographs, SEM, XPS, and Py/GC-MS. Moreover, compared to pure EP, EP/FDI composites showed excellent UV resistance, low dielectric properties, and high glass transition temperature, which was expected to be extensively used in multiple areas of production.

Designing cathode and anode materials that can accommodate capacity and rate performance is a significant challenge in developing lithium-ion capacitors (LICs). Herein, we synthesize a unique N/S dual-doped hierarchical porous carbon (NSC) under the effect of pore distribution modification and heteroatom doping. The nanosheet shape and pore distribution of NSC are highly adjustable, while it demonstrates a reversible capacity that is tens of times more than that of unaltered pristine active carbon. Meanwhile, the prepared glycerol-engineered polyacrylonitrile nanofiber (GPN) form a fast conducting network in the presence of glycerol and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and exhibit a 300% higher capacity compared to pure polyacrylonitrile nanofibers at 5 A g −1 . On this premise, the constructed highly stable LIC (NSC//GPN x @CNTs) can achieve an energy density of 131.48 Wh kg −1 and have an excellent capacity retention rate (93.5%) over 10,000 cycles at a high current density (5 A g −1 ). This work may lead to new avenues for the preparation of heteroatom-doped porous carbon and redefine the electrode matching of highly stable LICs.

Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron-binding glycoprotein with various biological activities that has been extensively used in food and medical applications. Several methods for detecting LF have been reported, but they still face challenges in terms of sensitivity and simplicity of detection. To achieve an accurate and efficient detection of LF, we developed a method for the determination of LF in lactoferrin supplements using carbon dots (CDs) fluorescent probes. The N, S-doped PPI carbon dots (N, S-PPI-CDs) were prepared using a protein (peanut protein isolate) and cysteamine as precursors. The prepared N, S-PPI-CDs exhibited intense blue fluorescence and good biocompatibility, while the fluorescence intensity of the N, S-PPI-CDs showed a good linear relationship with Fe2+/Fe3+concentration (0–2 μM). The N, S-PPI-CDs exhibited a high potential ability to rapidly detect Fe2+/Fe3+within 30 s, with a limit of detection (LoD) of 0.21 μM/0.17 μM. Due to the reversible binding of LF to Fe, the N, S-PPI-CDs showed a high sensitivity and selectivity for LF, with a limit of detection (LoD) of 1.92 μg/mL. In addition, LF was quantified in real sample LF supplements and showed a fluctuation in recovery of less than 2.48%, further demonstrating the effectiveness of the fluorescent N, S-PPI-CDs sensor.Keywords:N, S-PPI-CDs;fluorescence probe;biocompatibility;Fe2+/Fe3+detection;lactoferrin supplement detection

The development of highly efficient electrocatalysts has attracted increasing attention in the field of electrochemical energy conversion. Therefore, we report a simple self-template method to construct Co–Sn–X (X = S, Se, Te) nanocages through the anion exchange reaction of CoSn(OH)6 nanocubes with chalcogenide ions under mild solvothermal conditions. Benefiting from advantageous compositional features and well-designed architectures, the obtained Co–Sn–X (X = S, Se, Te) nanocages display enhanced electrocatalytic activity for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline electrolyte. Remarkably, the Co–Sn–Se nanocages as the counter electrode (CE) catalyst deliver a prominent power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 9.25% for DSSCs compared with Pt CE (8.19%). Furthermore, when used as an OER catalyst, the Co–Sn–Se nanocages also exhibit outstanding electrocatalytic activity in terms of their low overpotential of 304 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm−2 and long-term stability in 1.0 M KOH solution. This work provides wide prospects for the rational design and synthesis of high-performance transition metal chalcogenide-based electrocatalysts for future energy conversion systems.

The application of poly(phthalazinone ether ketone)s (PPEKs) resin containing phthalazinone moiety is limited, due to its poor thermoforming processability. To investigate the effects of the phthalazinone’s side-group on the thermal stability and processability of the resin, a series of PPEKs resins with different side-group (–H/–CH3/–Ph) were prepared by nucleophilic aromatic substitution polymerization. The properties of the obtained resins were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMA), and rheogoniometer. The results show that the introduction of methyl or phenyl into the PPEKs resin, significantly reduced the melting viscosity of the resin, but resulted in a slight decrease in the thermal stability of it. This might be due to the presence of methyl or phenyl, which enhanced the free volume of the molecule and reduced the entanglement between the chains; the results of the computer simulation confirmed it. Moreover, the resin films displayed excellent tensile strength with the introduction of methyl or phenyl. In a word, a novel poly(phthalazinone ether ketone)s resin with thermal resistance, easy processing and excellent mechanical properties could be obtained by introducing appropriate bulk-rigid side-groups into the phthalazinone moiety.Keywords:phthalazinone;side-group;thermal properties;processability

Four new quaternary chalcogenides with the formula of Na6Zn3MIII2Q9 (MIII = Ga, In; Q = S, Se) have been successfully synthesized for the first time. They are isostructural and crystallize in the monoclinic C2/c space group. As seen from their structures, they exhibit two opposite direction layers composed of the interconnection of countless (Zn/MIII)10Q20 supertetrahedra (T3-type) clusters, and then three coordination-type NaQn units (n = 4–6) exist among the interlayers to bridge them together. Note that these T3 clusters connect with each other by vertex-sharing to form the layers in the title compounds, which can be viewed as the first discovered examples in the known quaternary chalcogenides that only exhibit the tetrahedron-sharing T3 clusters. Moreover, we have also systematically compared the structural differences of all the T3-containing quaternary chalcogenides and the result shows that the title compounds possess the shortest interlayer spacing and more tilting T3 cluster-built layers in comparison with other related compounds. The measured optical properties indicate that their optical bandgaps are in the range from 2.22 to 3.15 eV, respectively. The photoluminescence result shows that the title compounds have potential application prospects as blue and green light emitters in view of their obvious emission peaks centered at 463 and 541 nm. Electronic structures and density of states were also calculated by first-principles calculations and the results indicate that their optical bandgaps are mainly determined by the T3 clusters.
