The rapid and sensitive detection of ultra-trace marker molecules from biological samples is of great significance for the wide application of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) methods in clinical diagnosis and disease monitoring. However, the cumbersome biological sample processing procedures and the poor enrichment of target analytes in hot spots hinder the practical applications of SERS methods. In this paper, we synthesized a novel floating SERS substrate by a simple one-step oxidation process, annealing and in situ chemical etching to form Ag-NPs@Cu-NW bundles on copper mesh (CM). In particular, under spontaneous bottom-up capillary action, the pressure difference at different nanogaps drives uric acid molecules to actively enter hot spots, so that the Ag-NPs@Cu-NW bundle nanostructure with the advantages of a light weight CM is capable of preventing the common coffee-ring effect and enhancing the spatial enrichment of analytes. Therefore, this SERS substrate realizes highly sensitive detection of uric acid at a level of 50 nM in pretreatment-free urine. Currently, this portable, flexible, simple, fast and cost-effective SERS substrate has great potential for early screening and clinical diagnosis of diseases in different biofluids.

For the advanced treatment of micropollutants from wastewater, this study synthesized a ternary Ag/ZnO/ZnAl‒LDH composite photocatalyst with performance optimization based on the Taguchi approach. The optimal synthesis parameters were statistically determined as the Ag doping amount of 5 wt%, Zn 2+ and Al 3+ with a molar ratio of 3:1, Ag/ZnO and ZnAl‒LDH with composite ratio of 3:2, and PEG-200 dosage of 25 mL. The optimally synthesized Ag/ZnO/ZnAl‒LDH achieved the efficient degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) under visible light irradiation, and the reaction rate constant was about 4.8-, 2.2- and 12.0-fold higher than that of ZnO, Ag/ZnO and ZnAl‒LDH, respectively. As proved by various characterizations, the enhanced photocatalytic performance of Ag/ZnO/ZnAl‒LDH can be attributed to the improvements of optoelectronic properties, such as the widened visible light responsivity and facilitated charge transfer, thus resulting in a significant increase of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) formation. Fluorescence measurements and radical quenching experiments indicated that ·OH mainly contribute to the degradation of BPA, and the oxidation of H 2 O by holes was the dominant formation pathway. According to the above results, this study summarized and proposed the enhanced photocatalytic mechanism of Ag/ZnO/ZnAl‒LDH for ·OH production and BPA removal.

Composite phase change materials have been extensively researched and applied in the field of thermal energy storage management and photo-thermal conversion. In this research, the loofah-based porous carbon (BPC) was modified with nano-Ag particles through chemical reduction method, and then a novel polyethylene glycol (PEG)/modified bio-based loofah porous carbon (BPC-Ag) shape-stable composite phase change material (SSPCM) was prepared. The experimental results indicated that the addition of nano-Ag particles not only considerably improved the thermal conductivity of the PEG/BPC-Ag composite PCMs (from 0.349 W m −1 K −1 to 0.632 W m −1 K −1 ) compared to the PEG/BPC composite PCMs, but also significantly improved its photo-thermal conversion efficiency (from 76.8 % to 92.3 %). In addition, the PEG/BPC-Ag has excellent thermal stability and reusability , which exhibited favorable phase change performance even after 100 thermal cycles. The results showed that the PEG/BPC-Ag has broad application prospects in the fields of photo-thermal conversion and thermal energy storage management.

Photocatalysis is still a promising technology to alleviate the antibiotic residual problem of wastewater in the ecological environment. Herein, an all-solid-state Z-scheme Ag@Ag 3 PO 4 /TiO 2 -(F 2 ) (TFAP) heterojunction photocatalyst was constructed using the hydrothermal method for the first time. The photocatalytic performance of TFAP nanocomposites for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) degradation was evaluated under simulated sunlight. The prepared materials were characterized by XRD , FE-SEM, TEM , BET, FT-IR, UV vis DRS , XPS , PL, and ESR measurements. The TFAP nanocomposites showed high degradation efficiency and excellent repeatability to TCH destruction. Among them, the (TFAP 1–1) nanocomposite has a lower bandgap energy (1.80 eV), a larger specific surface area (53.48 m 2 /g), and a lower electron-hole recombination rate. After 2.5 h of simulated sunlight irradiation, the degradation rate of the 200 mg/L (TFAP 1–1) nanocomposite (k = 0.0154 min −1 ) to 10 mg/L TCH reached 94.14%, which was much higher than that of the pure TiO 2 , TiOF 2 , and Ag 3 PO 4 samples. The experimental results demonstrated that TiO 2 was generated as an intermediate product during the chemical reaction process between Ag 3 PO 4 and TiOF 2 . Additionally, Ag nanoparticles were formed in the Ag 3 PO 4 /TiO 2 /TiOF 2 heterojunction system. An electric field was formed between Ag 3 PO 4 and Ag, enhancing the visible light absorption ability. Because of the Schottky potential difference, the electrons accumulate in Ag nanoparticles, thus enhancing the photocorrosion resistance of Ag 3 PO 4 . Additionally, the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of Ag nanoparticles greatly promoted the separation of carriers at the interface of the heterojunction. The LSPR effect leads to the co-oscillation of free electrons, which leads to the strong absorption of electromagnetic energy and enhances the photocatalytic performance of the heterojunction. The Ag@Ag 3 PO 4 nanocomposites acted as electron transport media for an all-solid-state Z-scheme TFAP heterojunction system. This study provides some in-depth insights into the structural design of Z-scheme heterojunctions, which have certain implications for other catalytic systems.

In advanced microelectronic packaging technology, the interfacial brittleness of Cu/Sn solder joints puts forward higher requirements for high-performance diffusion barriers. Cobalt–Phosphorus (Co-P) alloy coating becomes ideal candidates for its good wettability and diffusion resistance. In this work, for Co-P with different crystallinity , the barrier properties of electrodeposited Co-P coatings as well as the mechanical properties of Co-Sn intermetallic compounds (IMCs) at the Co-P/Sn-Ag interface were investigated. According to the XRD results, the crystallinity of the Co-P coating was directly related to the phosphorus (P) content, and Co-P were classified into three types: crystalline state, mixed state and amorphous state. The morphology, composition, phase characterization, and mechanical properties of the Co-Sn IMCs at the interface were investigated by SEM , EPMA , TEM , and nanoindentation methods, respectively. After 180 °C aging test for 120 h, the thickness of CoSn 3 generated at the interface of crystalline Co-4.2 at.% P/Sn-Ag was the smallest among a total of 18 Co-P coatings, where P content ranged from 0.9 at.% to 20.8 at.%, showing the best barrier properties. The hardness of (Co,Cu)Sn 3 at the amorphous Co-P/Sn-Ag interface was the lowest (3.2 GPa), which was only 47% of that of Ni 3 Sn 4 , exhibiting the lowest brittleness tendency. The mixed crystalline-amorphous Co-P could greatly improve the diffusion barrier properties while sacrificing a small degree of brittleness comparing to the amorphous coatings, and had the potential to become a general-purpose alloy coating. This work could provide a scientific basis for the selection of Co-P barrier layers with excellent barrier properties and mechanical properties leading to different application scenario in electronic packaging.

Arsenic(III) is a highly toxic pollutant in the environment, and the development of nanomaterials with high electrochemical activity for As(III) detection is a research focus at present. Herein, an electrochemical sensing platform based on polyaniline nanofibers embedded with Ag@SiO 2 nanoparticles (Ag@SiO 2 /PANI NFs) was successfully constructed for trace As(III) determination. Owing to an in-situ chemical oxidation polymerization strategy, the polyaniline nanofibers loaded with Ag@SiO 2 core-shell nanoparticles blossomed into the dendritic three-dimensional network. The unique structure with a huge specific surface area greatly enhanced the adsorption efficiency of As(III). Combined with the outstanding conductivity of polyaniline and the electrocatalytic ability of uniformly dispersed AgNPs, the stripping current signal of As(III) was further amplified. Based on the optimized conditions, the sensitivity of 0.83 μA μg −1 L was obtained in the linear range of 0.1 ~ 100 μg L −1 with a low detection limit of 0.013 μg L −1 . And the selectivity, reproducibility, and long-term stability of this sensor were excellent. Additionally, satisfactory results were achieved by the recovery experiment of real samples, and the accuracy of this method was verified by comparison with ICP-MS. The above results demonstrated the promising application of the as-fabricated sensor in As(III) detection.

Ag@resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (Ag@RF) core-shell nanomaterials were prepared by Stöber method, and introduced into polyamide (PA) selective layer of thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes through the interfacial polymerization (IP) process. Due to the abundant hydroxyl groups on the surface and suitable particle size, Ag@RF nanoparticles (Ag@RFs) could be uniformly dispersed in the piperazine aqueous solution and participate in the IP process to precisely regulate the microstructure of the PA selective layer. The resulting “crater structure” and irregular granular structure enlarged the permeable area and contributed to the surface hydrophilicity. For the nanofiltration application, the water flux of TFN membrane modified by Ag@RFs to Na 2 SO 4 solution reached 150 L·m −2 ·h −1 which was 87.5% greater than TFC, and salt rejection was maintained. The antibacterial efficiency of the prepared TFN membrane on E. coli reached 99.6% in the antibacterial experiment. In addition, due to the special structure of Ag@RFs, the TFN membrane also showed an expected slow-release capability of Ag + , allowing for long-term anti-biofouling properties. This work demonstrates that Ag@RF core-shell nanoparticles with high compatibility of organic nanoparticles and antibacterial properties of Ag nanoparticles could be used as promising nanofillers for designing functional nanofiltration TFN membranes.

Aiming at development of novel medical packings, poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET)-based membranes with hydrophobic and antibacterial properties were prepared by electrostatic spinning of a blend of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), nano SiO 2 and Ag particles on PET nonwoven. In cooperation with electro-spun TPU/SiO 2 layer, the water contact angle (WCA) of PET nonwoven fabric was improved from 60° to 115–130°, and the water vapour transmission rate was 2200–2500 g/m 2 /24 h. It indicates that the modified PET nonwoven membrane exhibits a much better water resistance, highly increased hydrophobicity and moderate water permeability. Nano-silver provided excellent antibacterial properties for this non-cytotoxic PET/TPU/SiO 2 /Ag composite membranes. The PET/TPU/SiO 2 /Ag composite membranes had high mechanical properties, which exhibited a tensile strength of 56 MPa in the longitudinal direction and 35 MPa in the transversal direction, and tear strength of 30 kN/m in the longitudinal direction and 48 kN/m in the transversal direction. This new PET/TPU/SiO 2 /Ag composite membranes showed broad application prospects in the medical packaging industry.

A specific surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) assay for dopamine (DA) based on an azo derivatization reaction is proposed for the first time by preparation of p-aminothiophenol (PATP)-modified composite SERS substrate, composed of metal–organic framework (MIL-101) decorated with Au and Ag nanoparticles. As the result, the SERS method for detection of the azo reaction between PATP and DA exhibits superior sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. A reasonable linearity in the range 10 −6 to 10 −10 mol∙L −1 is achieved, and the limit of detection is 1.2 × 10 −12 mol∙L −1 . The reactive SERS assay is free from interference in complex physiological fluid. The feasibility of the proposed SERS method for the detection of DA levels in fetal bovine serum (FBS) samples and human serum samples is validated by HPLC–MS methods, displaying promising application potential in early disease diagnosis.

The purpose of this paper is to study the charge transfer (CT) process of a Ag/MBA/PAN system with different thicknesses of PAN and explore its SERS enhancement mechanism. It is found that as the PAN thickness is increased, the frequency and intensity of the characteristic MBA band gradually increases. The intensity of the b 2 mode increases significantly, which is attributed to the CT mechanism. As the PAN thickness is increased, the degree of CT (ρ CT ) gradually increases, which is due to the excited SPR from Ag. The electromagnetic enhancement mechanism, which occurs at the interface between PAN and Ag, generates hot electrons and rearranges the interface between PAN and Ag, thereby promoting electron transfer for the whole CT in Ag/MBA/PAN. These results show that CT occurs from the Fermi level of Ag to the LUMO level of MBA and then to the LUMO level of PAN. Additionally, the direction of CT is verified by 2D-COS. Therefore, this study not only reveals the ultrahigh SERS activity of the substrate but also explains the detailed process of regulating the substrate through the PAN thickness, which affects the SERS mechanism. This conductive polymer will open up a new horizon of SERS research and applications.

In this work, the sheet-like BiVO 4 with a higher exposure ratio of {0 1 0} facets was synthesized by the addition of TiCl 3 , and the ratio of (0 4 0)/(0 1 1) on {0 1 0}BiVO 4 was 2.85 times higher than that of normal decahedral BiVO 4 . Accordingly, the {0 1 0}BiVO 4 /Ag/CdS all-solid-state Z-scheme heterojunction was further constructed by photoreduction of Ag and chemical deposition of CdS on the well prepared {0 1 0}BiVO 4 successively. The performance and mechanism of {0 1 0}BiVO 4 /Ag/CdS in synergistic adsorption-photodegradation of fluoroquinolones (FQs) from water were investigated in detail. The adsorption-photodegradation could be divided into three processes: adsorption, surface degradation, and solution degradation, with the rate constants of 0.118, 0.029, and 0.012 min −1 , respectively. Accordingly, the adsorption was a rapid process due to the combined CdS in this composited photocatalyst had a high affinity to FQs to achieve an adsorption equilibrium on the surfaces<30.0 min. Besides, {0 1 0}BiVO 4 /Ag/CdS had a better separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs than BiVO 4 /Ag/CdS, because the enriched {0 1 0} facets of {0 1 0}BiVO 4 caused more BiVO 4 /Ag/CdS ternary structure formed, and>90% photodegradation efficiency for five FQs ( C 0 = 0.062 mmol/L) was thus obtained within 60.0 min. The radical trapping and EPR results showed that holes and superoxide radicals were the main active species for FQs photodegradation. In summary, {0 1 0}BiVO4/Ag/CdS achieved an enhanced performance in synergistic adsorption and photodegradation of organic contaminants from water, and a talented photocatalyst was thus provided in water and wastewater treatment.

Low-temperature operation of reversible solid oxide cells can effectively improve their stable and economical application. However, insufficient catalytic activity of the air electrode is the limiting factor for reversible solid oxide cells. Here, we fabricate a novel Pr 0.9 Ag 0.1 Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 2 O 5+δ nanofibers with enhanced electrocatalytic activities via an electrospinning technique and in-situ exsolution. The study confirms the advantage of morphology engineering in enlarging the catalytic interface and reactive sites, and the cells with Pr 0.9 Ag 0.1 Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 2 O 5+δ nanofibers air electrode exhibit obviously decreased polarization resistance (0.06 Ω cm 2 ), increased electrolysis current density of 0.65 A cm -2 (50 vol% absolute humidity and 1.5 V), and adequate power density (~ 0.5 W cm -2 ) at 700 °C. Also, the cell exhibits exceptional reversibility and stability during the long-term test. The enhancement may be assigned to the in-situ exsolution of Ag nanoparticles at Pr 0.9 Ag 0.1 Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 Co 2 O 5+δ surface and better interface combination between the air electrode and electrolyte. This work provides an exemplificative study on the favorable nanofibers air electrode for high performance intermediate temperature reversible solid oxide cells.
