Removing impurities from hexavalent chromium system without secondary pollution is the key to the successful development of green chromate production technology. Here, hydrated chromium oxide CrO x (OH) 3-2x with lamellar cluster microsphere structure was prepared by in-situ hydrothermal method and used to simultaneously adsorb Si (IV) and V (V) in high concentration Cr (VI) solution. In the in-situ hydrothermal process of pH 7, 160 ℃ for 8 h, the Si (IV) and V (V) removal rates of the actual chromate production Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 -Na 2 SiO 3 -NaVO 3 -H 2 O solution can reach 92.27 % and 94.81 %, respectively, which is higher than the ex-situ removal efficiency of Si (IV) (62.88 %) and V (V) (63.16 %) under the same conditions. Further characterization of STEM-elemental mapping, XPS and FT-IR results indicate that during in-situ adsorption, Si (IV) and V (V) are mainly adsorbed on the surface of CrO x (OH) 3-2X adsorbent by interacting with surface hydroxyl groups. More importantly, the simultaneous formation and adsorption of the adsorbent are more conducive to the full utilization of active adsorption sites on the adsorbent surface. After that, CrO x (OH) 3-2x was converted into nano Cr 2 O 3 with a purity of 97.87 % by simple desorption and calcination processes. In addition, the results of UV–vis DRS and SEM show that the residual Si and V elements in Cr 2 O 3 unexpectedly increase the size of the particles to about 300 nm, which redshifts the absorption band of the blue region by 3.3 nm. This results in more red absorption and makes Cr 2 O 3 more yellowish-green and exhibits excellent pigment properties. Thus, the in-situ synthesis, synergistic adsorption and green conversion of trivalent chromium adsorbent provide a promising and sustainable technology for the purification of high concentration Cr (VI) solution that avoids the discharge of Cr (VI) containing slag.

Using solar energy to remove antibiotics from aqueous environments via photocatalysis is highly desirable. In this work, a novel type-II heterojunction photocatalyst, MgSn(OH)6/SnO2,was successfully prepared via a facile one-pot in situ hydrothermal method at 220 °C for 24 h. The obtained heterojunctions were characterized via powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The photocatalytic performance was evaluated for photodegradation of tetracycline solution under ultraviolet irradiation. The initial concentration of tetracycline solution was set to be 20 mg/L. The prepared heterojunctions exhibited superior photocatalytic activity compared with the parent MgSn(OH)6and SnO2compounds. Among them, the obtained MgSn(OH)6/SnO2heterojunction with MgCl2·6H2O:SnCl4·5H2O = 4:5.2 (mmol) displayed the highest photocatalytic performance and the photodegradation efficiency conversion of 91% could be reached after 60 min under ultraviolet irradiation. The prepared heterojunction maintained its performance after four successive cycles of use. Active species trapping experiments demonstrated that holes were the dominant active species. Hydroxyl radicals and superoxide ions had minor effects on the photocatalytic oxidation of tetracycline. Photoelectrochemical measurements were used to investigate the photocatalytic mechanism. The enhancement of photocatalytic activity could be assigned to the formation of a type-II junction photocatalytic system, which was beneficial for efficient transfer and separation of photogenerated electrons and holes. This research provides an in situ growth strategy for the design of highly efficient photocatalysts for environmental restoration.

Developing non-noble metal catalysts with excellent electrocatalytic performance and stability is of great significance to hydrogen production by water electrolysis, but there are still problems of low activity, complex preparation and high cost. Herein, we fabricated a novel Ni 3 S 2 /Ni(OH) 2 dual-functional electrocatalyst by a one-step fast electrodeposition on nickel foam (NF). While maintaining the electrocatalytic performance of Ni 3 S 2 , the existence of heterostructure and Ni(OH) 2 co-catalyst function greatly improves the overall water splitting performance of Ni 3 S 2 /Ni(OH) 2 –NF. Hence, It shows a low overpotential of 66 mV at 10 mA cm −2 for HER and 249 mV at 20 mA cm −2 for OER. The dual-functional electrocatalyst needs only 1.58 V at 20 mA cm −2 when assembled two-electrode electrolytic cell. Impressively, the electrocatalyst also shows outstanding catalytic stability for about 800 h when 20 and 50 mA cm −2 constant current was applied, respectively which demonstrates a potential electrocatalyst for overall water splitting.

The preparation of high specific-capacity pseudocapacitive transition-metal-oxide/hydroxide (TMH) materials into transparent micro-structure electrodes is a great challenge and has become the bottleneck restricting the performance of transparent flexible supercapacitors . Beyond that, extending the operating voltage window is an urgent need for improving energy density . Here, Co(OH) 2 nanosheets and amorphous FeOOH nanowires were prepared into transparent films through a simple and scalable bio-inspired method at the air-solution interface. Both nanostructures are enwrapped in graphene shells (Co@Gr-TFandFe@Gr-TF) for use as transparent asymmetric pseudocapacitive electrodes. The unique encapsulation structures (1) provide pseudocapacitive electrode materials, especially an amorphous FeOOH structure cathode, (2) build up rapid three-dimensional electron and ion transport pathways together with the underlying ITO layer, (3) alleviate the exfoliation and dissolution of the active materials into electrolyte, and (4) extend the potential window of the FeOOH cathode from −0.8 ∼ 0 V to −1.2 ∼ 0 V with minimal cycling stability degradation. The asymmetric transparent and flexible supercapacitor based on Co@Gr-TF//Fe@Gr-TF operated at 1.8 V exhibits good transparency (50.5% at 550 nm), high specific capacitance (25.5 mF cm −2 , one order higher than the maximum value reported for FFT-GP), and high energy density (1.04 mWh cm −3 , comparable to that of nontransparent devices) as well as a long cycle life (10 000 cycles) with high-capacity retention (83.5%).

A simple one-step method was successfully developed to prepare stable nanosized Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid particles by just adding NaOH to a mix solution containing Ni(NO 3 ) 2 and Cr(NO 3 ) 3 at room temperature. In contrast, under the exact same conditions, flocculent Ni(OH) 2 or Cr(OH) 3 precipitate was obtained after the addition of equivalent NaOH in a solution containing same amount of Ni(NO 3 ) 2 or Cr(NO 3 ) 3 as in the mix solution. The interaction between Ni(II) and Cr(III) ions was believed to make major contribution to the formation of stable Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid without aggregation to large-size particles. The prepared Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid nanoparticles were well characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and electrochemical measurements with results showing uniform size, smooth surface, good monodispersibility, fast electron transfer rate as well as promising electrocatalytic properties toward glucose (Glu) and cysteine (Cys) oxidation. The presence of a small amount of Cr(OH) 3 in the composite not only improved the stability and monodispersibility of the Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid particles, decreased their size to nanoscale, but also exerted positive effect to the electrochemical properties of the obtained Ni(OH) 2 based nanomaterials like the electron transfer rate and the electrocatalytic activity. Satisfactory electrocatalytic performances of the Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid toward Glu and Cys oxidations were achieved, respectively, in certain concentration ranges with acceptable detection limits and correlation coefficients, suggesting the potential facilitation of electrocatalysis toward other small molecules by the newly prepared Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid.

Copper salt metal compounds are widely used in the field of supercapacitor electrode material due to their rich ionic groups. In this paper, NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material is prepared by the solvothermal method by doping NiCo-based hydroxide with copper salt metal compounds (Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 ). NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material with different morphologies and sizes is prepared by adjusting the concentration of metal salts. When the metal salt concentration is 2 M, the prepared circular sheet NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material with a diameter of 3 μm and a thickness of 150 nm exhibits excellent specific capacitance (1335 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ) and capacitance retention (after 5000 cycles, the capacitance retention rate is 71.7 %). Furthermore, the NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 //AC asymmetric supercapacitor is prepared, which exhibited an energy density is 83.78 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 800 W kg −1 . The capacitance retention rate of the asymmetric supercapacitor is 65.2 % (after 5000 cycles at 10 A g −1 ). We used copper salt metal compounds (Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 ) to improve the electrochemical performance of NiCo-based hydroxide electrode material. This idea has certain reference significance for improving the performance of NiCo-based hydroxide electrode material.

An LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for simultaneously quantifying 25-hydroxyvitamin D2, D3, and 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human serum. Protein in 200 μL serum was precipitated with acetonitrile. After centrifugation, the metabolites were derivatized using (diacetoxyiodo)benzene (PIA) and 4-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione (DMAT) and then quantified by the LC-MS/MS system. The limits of detection (LODs) for the three substances were 10, 10, and 5 pg/mL, and the limits of quantification (LOQs) were 20, 20, and 10 pg/mL. The standard curves for these compounds showed linear regression coefficients (R2)>0.998 over specific concentration ranges. Recoveries were 94.36 %–102.34 % for 25(OH)D2, 92.43 %–103.41 % for 25(OH)D3, and 88.98 %–94.36 % for 1α,25(OH)2D3. The mean serum levels in 109 subjects (consisting of 61 healthy adult males and 59 healthy adult females) were 2.0 ± 1.5 ng/ml (25(OH)D2), 16.4 ± 6.1 ng/ml (25(OH)D3) and 36.6 ± 15.1 pg/ml (1α, 25(OH)2D3).Derivatization of vitamin D metabolites using PIA and DMAT is useful for rapidly determining the serum 25(OH) D2, 25(OH) D3 and 1α,25(OH)2D3 concentrations simultaneously in human serum.

A new deep-ultraviolet (DUV) birefringent crystal, LiB 5 O 5 F 2 (OH) 4 (LBOFH), was designed and synthesized by a high-temperature solution method. Its structure features a [B 5 O 5 F 2 (OH) 4 ] anionic group that is constructed by four π-conjugated units, i.e., two [BO 3 ] units and two [BO(OH) 2 ] units connected by the [BO 2 F 2 ] unit, which forms a near-coplanar configuration. The group exhibits large anisotropic polarizability and highest unoccupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HUMO-LUMO) gap, thus providing a good balance between the large birefringence (0.124 at 546 nm) and band gap (7.99 eV) in LBOFH. This work suggests new possibilities for the design and fabrication of advanced DUV birefringent crystals using the novel anionic group and the expansion of their alternative system with new hydroxyfluorooxoborates.

Ni(OH) 2 /CNTs/Ni(OH) 2 lamellar-crossing-nanostructure with a single lamellar spacing of ∼5 nm was effectively constructed through two-phase-interface reaction process followed by the CNTs crossed among the lamellar-nanostructured Ni(OH) 2 . The resultant nanocomposite can offer large active surface areas and short diffusion paths for electrons and ions, and is investigated as a potential pseudocapacitor electrode material for electrochemical energy storage applications. Electrochemical data demonstrate that the as-prepared nanocomposite exhibits a high specific capacitance of ∼1600 F g −1 at the scan rate of 1 mV s −1 in 6 M KOH solution at normal pressure and temperature, which is great higher than Ni(OH) 2 (∼1200 F g −1 ). Furthermore, Ni(OH) 2 /CNTs/Ni(OH) 2 nanocomposite shows a higher energy density (∼125 Wh kg −1 , 2 A g −1 ) and has a slightly decrease of 5% in specific capacitance after 1000 continuous charge/discharge cycles.

Co(OH)2 nanosheets/Cu(OH)2 nanorods composite electrodes for non-enzymatic glucose detection were fabricated by electrodepositing Co(OH)2 nanosheets on Cu(OH)2 nanorods substrate grown directly on the copper sheet via a simple one-step reaction. The Co(OH)2 nanosheets/Cu(OH)2 nanorods composite electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The glucose sensing performance of the composite electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The composite electrode shows high sensitivity of 2366 µA mM−1 cm−2 up to 2 mM with a lower detection limit of 0.17 mM (S/N = 3). The composite electrode is highly selective to glucose in the presence of various substances that always co-exist with glucose in real blood samples. The response of the composite towards human blood serum was in good agreement with that of commercially available glucose sensors, suggesting that a promising electrode material for highly sensitive and selective non enzymatic detection of glucose can be envisioned.

Cyclic stability is a key factor in the design of thermochemical heat storage systems . Because carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) may react with heat storage materials and lead to a decrease in energy storage efficiency, the effect of CO 2 on Ca(OH) 2 /CaO and Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems is investigated in this study. The experimental results show that CO 2 reacts with CaO in the water vapor that appears during the heat release process. Therefore, in the design of Ca(OH) 2 /CaO systems, CO 2 should be cleared from the system. The results from Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems show that CO 2 only slightly reacts with MgO and Mg(OH) 2 during heat storage and release processes. This study indicates that carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3 ) could easily react with CaO/Ca(OH) 2 to form CaCO 3 during heat release processes. Generally, the remaining CO 2 reduces the reversibility of Ca(OH) 2 /CaO systems but has only a slight influence on Mg(OH) 2 /MgO systems. In addition, the experimental results show that carbonate shell does not exist in rehydration for both of the CaO/MgO samples, but the influence of CO 2 on the entire process increases after each cycle.

The γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) metal–organic frameworks (CD-MOF-1) consist of γ-CD and potassium (K+) ions through coordinating an eight-coordinated K+ ion with two C5-linked oxygen and C6-linked hydroxyl (C5–O/C6–OH) groups in the primary faces of adjacent γ-CD units and two C2- and C3-linked hydroxyl (C2–OH/C3–OH) groups in the secondary faces. Herein, we found polysaccharide gels with only C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups in pyranoid rings can form four-coordinated K+ ions and then coordinate γ-CD in a KOH solution for CD-MOF-1 growth. Exposure of C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups in polysaccharide gels is important to form active four-coordinated K+ ions. Mechanism supporting this work is that four-coordinated K+ ion sites are first formed after coordinating C2–OH/C3–OH groups in pectin and then coordinating C5–O/C6–OH groups in the primary faces of γ-CD units. Alternatively, four-coordinated K+ ions with C5–O/C6–OH groups in chitosan can coordinate the C2–OH/C3–OH groups in the secondary faces of γ-CD units. Mechanism of CD-MOF-1 growing on pectin and chitosan gels through the proposed four-coordinated K+ ions is also universally applicable to other polysaccharide gels with similar C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups such as alginate gel. Based on this mechanism, we developed pectin and chitosan gel-based CD-MOF-1 composites and exemplified applications of them in antibacterial and organic dye removal. To help future research and applications of this mechanism, we share our theoretical assumption for further investigations that any matrices with an ortho-hydroxyl carbon chain or ortho-hydroxyl ether structures may form four-coordinated K+ ions for CD-MOF-1 growth. The proposed mechanism will broaden the development of novel CD-MOF-1 composites in various fields.
