The hydrotalcites were dispersed in the hexagonal lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) composed of 1-hexadecyl-3-alkyl imidazolium bromide ([C 16 imC n ]Br, n = 1, 2 and 3) and H 2 O. The effects of the hydrotalcite concentration and the alkyl chain length of the [C 16 imC n ]Br on the properties and the lubricant performance of the [C 16 imC n ]Br/hydrotalcite hexagonal LLCs were studied by small angle X-ray diffraction measurements, rheology and tribology. Compared with the pure hexagonal LLCs, the incorporation of hydrotalcite into the [C 16 imC n ]Br hexagonal LLCs can increase the interlayer distances and the viscoelasticity of the hybrid hexagonal LLCs gradually. However, the friction coefficient and wear volume decrease firstly and then increase with the increasing of hydrotalcite content. With the increase of the alkyl chain length of the [C 16 imC n ]Br, the viscoelasticity, the interlayer distance and the water permeability of the mixed LLCs gradually increase which decreases the friction coefficient and wear volume at the moderate hydrotalcite content. The mechanism of the effective improvement of lubrication performance of the hybrid hexagonal LLCs is the tribofilm formed by the physical adsorption and tribochemical reaction of [C 16 imC n ]Br/hydrotalcite LLCs on the steel surface.

In this work, we introduced halogen-substituted chiral molecules as A-site cations to synthesize a series of novel organic–inorganic hybrid two-dimensional (2D) chiral perovskite materials (R-X-p-mBZA)2PbBr4 (X = H, F, Cl, Br; p: para-position; mBZA = α-methylbenzylamine) for the first time. This halogen-substituted cation strategy collectively solved problems of narrow emission, weak chirality and low photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) for the emerged chiral perovskites. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra are significantly broadened due to the additional emission from self-trapped excitons (STEs) besides free excitons (FEs) states modulated by introducing significant disorder to the Pb–Br–Pb angle. The chirality of A-site chiral molecules is transferred and amplified to entire perovskite materials by fixing the chiral molecules at A-site via the interaction of halogen atoms. Furthermore, their PLQYs are improved with the reduction of energy gap and inhibition of the non-radiative transition from STEs to ground state. The halogen-substituted A-site cation strategy can be performed to develop organic–inorganic hybrid chiral perovskites with various optoelectronic applications.

Complete dehalogenation of halogenated organic pollutants has attracted increasing attention, and electrocatalytic reduction processes are considered prospective technologies due to their high selectivity for carbon-halogen bonds. In this study, a vitamin B 12 (VB 12 ) composite electrode was prepared and applied to remove the refractory tribromoacetic acid (TBAA). The reduction process dominated by the VB 12 composite electrode showed a degradation efficiency of 55.2 % for 200 μg/L TBAA within 60 min. Interestingly, UV irradiation considerably increased the efficiency of TBAA for dehalogenation on the VB 12 composite electrode. The photoelectrochemical co-catalytic system of a VB 12 composite electrode coupled with UV (LP UV 254 nm) could remove 92.2 % of TBAA in 20 min with a rate constant 12 times higher than the VB 12 -only electrolysis system. The in situ Raman characterization and cyclic voltammetry tests confirmed that the accelerated formation of Co-Br bonds and the enhanced atomic H* mediated ability were responsible for improving debromination efficiency. The degradation of TBAA mainly underwent chemical reactions of debromination and mineralization. Acetic acid, formic acid, formaldehyde, and Br - were the major transformation products of TBAA. Acidic conditions favoured TBAA removal in the UV synergistic VB 12 electrolytic system, and excellent cycling stability of debromination was obtained in complex aqueous environments (actual bodies of water containing various inorganic and organic matter). This research provides an efficient dehalogenation technology for halogenated micropollutants and novel perspectives on the scientific design of photoelectrochemical dehalogenation processes.

Disposal of dye-contaminated wastewater has become an imperative issue. Synthesis of novel materials for larger-capacity removal of those contaminants assisting by special interaction is a significant challenge. In this paper, a series of hyper-crosslinked poly 9-bromophenanthrene hybrids (HCPs) were synthesized by combination of 9-bromophenanthrene (9BP) and octavinylsilsesquioxane (OVS) via Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. The synthesized HCPs were well characterized. The results illustrated that HCPs were porous polymer hybrids consisting of micropores and mesopores with the apparent surface areas ( S BET ) in range of 980.0–1010.6 m 2 g −1 , and the micropore and mesopore widths located at 1.42 and 4 nm. Dye adsorption disclosed that the adsorbed amounts of rhodamine B (RB) and Congo red (CR) on HCP-2 respectively arrived at 2646.0 ± 37.4 and 1550.0 ± 38.5 mg g −1 , ascribing to the interactions of pore filling, hydrogen bonds, π π stacking, electrostatic attraction, especially the C Br⋯π interaction between the resulting polymers and the dye molecules of RB and CR. Moreover, HCP-2 exhibited larger adsorbed amount of iodine vapor arriving at 179.9 ± 2.6 wt%. This work provided an innovative strategy to design new adsorbents for larger-amount removal of contaminants from the environment.

Although reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based photocatalyst composites have been intensively developed during the past few years, the influence of reduction extent of rGO on the photocatalytic performance of the rGO-based composite has virtually not been investigated due to some technical limitations, such as the poor water dispersibility of rGO and low reduction selectivity of the hydrothermal method, which make it difficult to control the reduction extent of rGO in these composites. Herein, we used a facile room-temperature method to synthesize Ag/AgX (X = Cl, Br)/rGO photocatalyst composites as a model to study the effect of reduction extent of rGO on the photocatalytic performance of the photocatalyst. It was found that the photocatalytic activities of both Ag/AgCl/PrGO and Ag/AgBr/PrGO systems had an optimized threshold of the reduction extent of photoreduced GO (PrGO). More importantly, due to the different conductive band values of AgCl and AgBr, the optimized thresholds in the two systems were at different PrGO reduction extents, based on which we proposed that the favorable energy band matching between AgX and PrGO in the two systems played a crucial role in obtaining high photocatalysis performance. Besides, the photocatalytic reaction of the Ag/AgBr based system was confirmed to be a pseudo-second-order kinetics reaction rather than pseudo-first-order kinetics reaction. The new insights presented in this work provided useful information on the design and development of a more sophisticated photocatalyst, and can also be applied to many other applications.
