Designing an efficient hole–electron separation method is essential to improving the photocatalytic efficiency of photocatalysts. Herein, we constructed a 3D MoS2/MgIn2S4 S-scheme heterojunction material using a solvothermal method. The built-in electric field formed by the interaction between MoS2 and MgIn2S4 promoted the separation of electrons and holes, significantly improving the photocatalytic activity of 3D MoS2/MgIn2S4. The 3% MoS2/MgIn2S4 composite photocatalyst successfully achieved a 100% reduction of Cr(VI) within 90 min and demonstrated good hydrogen production efficiency without using a sacrificial agent. Theoretical calculations confirmed the formation of S-scheme heterojunctions. Malondialdehyde and dehydrogenase tests showed that the Cr(VI) solution after reduction was not harmful to plant growth. Furthermore, we systematically investigated the effects of different Cr(VI) concentrations, catalyst dosages, ions, pH values, and organic acids on photocatalytic efficiency. The design of the S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts provided a promising strategy for the photoreduction of Cr(VI).

Antimony selenosulfide (Sb 2 (S,Se) 3 ) thin films hold significant potential in the photovoltaic field due to their tunable bandgap, high absorption coefficient (>10 5 cm −1 ), earth-abundant, and low-toxicity constituents. However, serious trapped-carrier recombination at deep-defect levels limits their efficient applications. In this sense, it is urgently necessary to address the issues of the defects and enhancing film properties. This study optimizes solution-processed Sb 2 (S,Se) 3 films by adjusting the antimony/sulfur (Sb/S) atomic ratio in precursors and the post-selenization temperature. Results show that an optimal Sb/S atomic ratio of 2/3.55 in precursors improves the crystallinity, enlarges the grain size, and minimizes the antimony-oxygen (Sb-O) impurities; this suppresses the deep-trapped carriers’ non-radiative recombination, and reduces the defect density in the Sb 2 (S,Se) 3 films. Furthermore, it is found that the selenization at an optimal temperature of 350 °C further increases the grain size, broadens the light absorption, and diminishes the deep-level defects, which is clearly revealed by the transient absorption experiments. This dual-parameter optimization strategy may promote the development of the high-performance Sb 2 (S,Se) 3 films towards high-efficiency photovoltaic applications.

3D porous sulfur and nitrogen co-doped graphene aerogel has been fabricated by a facile one-pot process. Both experimental and theoretical studies have demonstrated that sulfur and nitrogen co-doping could synergistically enhance the catalytic performance for activating peroxydisulfate (PDS) compared to the original and N doped graphene aerogels. The ratio of sulfur/nitrogen in the aerogel can be controlled by regulating the additions of thiourea and urea sources, and the aerogel with the S/N ratio of about 1:2.5 shows a better catalytic effect due to more significant changes in the electrostatic potential and the surface charge distribution, as revealed by the theoretical simulations. The radical quenching tests indicated that both SO 4 · - and ·OH radicals could be formed in the SN-rGO aerogel + PDS system and contribute most to RhB degradation.

Pure multi-block copolymers and deformed multi-block copolymers have unique applications in the field of high-performance thermoplastic elastomers, resins and rubber materials. For styrene ( S ) and conjugated 1,3-dienes ( e.g. 1,3-pentadiene, P ) monomers, living anionic polymerization ( LAP ) has significant advantages in precise control of molecular weight and its distribution and precise control of microstructure and the sequence distribution. Subsequently, the post-polymerization modification strategy including epoxidation can further expand the application field of such polymer materials. Herein, a series of novel symmetrical triblock copolymers of different compositions with homo-polystyrene as end-blocks and strictly alternating sequence as mid-block, poly( S )- b -poly( S - alt - P )- b -poly( S ) ( SSPS ), were synthesized in cyclohexane by the classical three-step sequential feeding method using n -BuLi as initiator. The effect of the block ratio of SSPS triblock copolymer on impact strength, flexural strength and yield strength of transparent resin products was studied in detail. In addition, quantitative epoxidation post-polymerization functional modification was performed to obtain the novel triblock copolymer product which had a high-polarity and high-transparent thermoplastic resin with well-defined structure and quantitative degree of epoxidation ( ED ). All these novel copolymers before and after modification were characterized by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, FTIR, DSC and GPC.

A novel chiral fluorescent probe, tetraphenylvinyltriazole-ribosyl ribose derivative (β,D)-RIB-TPE, was prepared by Click reaction. It can self-assemble into amphiphilic micron vesicles in methanol solution. (β,D)-RIB-TPE has good AIE properties with a large Stokes shift (redshift 61.8 nm), self-assembles into J-aggregates in a mixed solution with 98% water content, and exhibits a relative fluorescence intensity αAIE = 24, emitting bright blue fluorescence. In addition to the micron vesicles, (β,D)-RIB-TPE self-assembled into J-aggregates in different mixtures, showing different morphologies, such as a cross-linked network structure and an irregular bulk stacking structure. The fluorescent probe (β,D)-RIB-TPE could achieve high efficiency and rapid multi-channel detection of clopidogrel S-(+)-sulfate by fluorescence chromatography and CD spectroscopy. Infrared, nuclear magnetic titration, scanning electron microscopy and DFT calculations confirmed that the probe (β,D)-RIB-TPE recognized S-(+)-clopidogrel sulfate by an ICT mechanism. (β,D)-RIB-TPE and S-(+)-clopidogrel sulfate were co-assembled in methanol to form single-target drug-carrying micron vesicles with a smaller particle size than the self-assembled (β,D)-RIB-TPE vesicles and good drug embedding capacity.

Bi 2 WO 6 demonstrates the limited photocatalytic activity due to its high photoelectron recombination rate. However, its photocatalytic performance is expected to be improved by forming Step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction and SiC is a potential candidate because of its high electron transfer rate in photocatalytic process. In this study, S-scheme heterojunction Bi 2 WO 6 /SiC nanocomposites were synthesized by simple hydrothermal method, and their photo degradation properties for rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light were studied. The results show that silicon carbide nanoparticles have been successfully deposited onto the petal-microsphere shaped Bi 2 WO 6 phase. The nanocomposite with mole ratio of Bi 2 WO 6 to SiC of 1:1 exhibits the highest photo degradation rate as tested in the photocatalytic experiments. The photoreaction rate of the nanocomposite is 3.7 times higher than that of pure Bi 2 WO 6 and 15.5 times higher than that of pure SiC, and the nanocomposite demonstrates good photocatalytic stability.

Surface tension (σ) isotherms of liquid mixtures can be divided into Langmuir-type (L-type, including LI- and LII-type) and sigmoid-type (S-type, including SI- and SII-type). Many models have been developed to describe the σ-isotherms. However, the existing models can well describe the L-type isotherms, but not the S-type ones. In the current work, a thermodynamic model, called the general adsorption model, was developed based on the assumption of surface aggregation occurring in the surface layers, to relate the surface composition with the bulk one. By coupling the general adsorption model with the modified Eberhart model, a two-parameter equation was developed to relate the σ with the bulk composition. Its rationality was examined using the σ data of 10 binary mixtures. The results indicate that the new model can accurately describe the S- and L-type isotherms of binary liquid mixtures, showing a good universality. One advantage of the model is that its two parameters, i.e., the adsorption equilibrium constant (K) and the average aggregation number (n), can be estimated by linear fitting experimental σ data, thereby obtaining unique values. This model suggests that the S- and LII-type isotherms arise from the surface aggregation (n ≠ 1). In addition, the standard molar Gibbs free energy of surface adsorption (ΔG̃ad0) and the apparent surface layer thickness (τ) were analyzed for 10 binary mixtures. The ΔG̃ad0 data suggest that the order of adsorption tendency is LI-type ≫ SI-type ≈ SII-type > LII-type, and the strong adsorption usually corresponds to large τ. This work provides a feasible model for describing the S-type isotherms and a better understanding of the surface properties of liquid mixtures.

A lithium–sulfur (Li–S) battery is considered a promising next-generation secondary battery owing to its high theoretical capacity and energy density. However, the volume change and poor conductivity of sulfur, and the shuttle effect, restrict its practical applications. Herein, we develop a yolk–shell Fe3O4@S@C nanochain as the Li–S battery cathode in which sulfur is encapsulated between the Fe3O4 core and the carbon shell. After cycling 500 times at 0.2C, the Fe3O4@S@C nanochains exhibit a stable capacity of 625 mA h g−1 and a coulombic efficiency exceeding 99.8%. When measuring at temperatures of −5 and 45 °C, the capacities remain stable, and a well-reversible rate performance under repeated testing for three rounds is also achieved. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations show large adsorption energies of Fe3O4 towards polysulfides, indicating the capability of suppressing the shuttle effect during long-term charge and discharge.

Because of extensive sulfonamides application in aquaculture and animal husbandry and the consequent increase in sulfonamides discharged into the environment, strategies to remediate sulfonamide-contaminated environments are essential. In this study, the resistance of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 and Shewanella sp. strain MR-4 to the sulfonamides sulfapyridine (SPY) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) were determined, and sulfonamides degradation by these strains was assessed. Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 and Shewanella sp. strain MR-4 were resistant to SPY and SMX concentrations as high as 60 mg/L. After incubation for 5 days, 23.91 ± 1.80 and 23.43 ± 2.98% of SPY and 59.88 ± 1.23 and 63.89 ± 3.09% of SMX contained in the medium were degraded by S. oneidensis MR-1 and Shewanella sp. strain MR-4, respectively. The effects of the initial concentration of the sulfonamides and initial pH of the medium on biodegradation, and the degradation of different sulfonamides were assessed. The products were measured by LC–MS; with SPY as a substrate, 2-AP (2-aminopyridine) was the main stable metabolite, and with SMX as a substrate, 3A5MI (3-amino-5-methyl-isoxazole) was the main stable metabolite. The co-occurrence of 2-AP or 3A5MI and 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid suggests that the initial step in the biodegradation of the two sulfonamides is S–N bond cleavage. These results suggest that S. oneidensis MR-1 and Shewanella sp. strain MR-4 are potential bacterial resources for biodegrading sulfonamides and therefore bioremediation of sulfonamide-polluted environments.

Purpose An indirect electrochemical reduction and dyeing with indigo were carried out here to solve problems of low dye reduction rate and poor dyeing depth in the current electrochemical dyeing process. Design/methodology/approach Response surface analysis tests were performed to evaluate the effects of ferrous sulfate concentration, medium concentration, sodium hydroxide concentration and reduction time on the reduction efficiency of indirect electrochemical reduction of indigo. Findings The conditions obtained by design-expert optimization showed that the concentration of FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O has the most significant effect on the reduction performance of dye liquor. Under the optimized electrochemical reduction dyeing process, the rate of dye reduction could be reached 91.21 per cent and the K/S value of indirect electrochemical dyeing of indigo can be achieved to 12.96, which is increased by about 9.56 per cent compared with that of Na 2 S 2 O 4 dyeing with the same color fastness basically. Research limitations/implications The recyclability and biodegradability of the dye remain to be explored. Practical implications The strategy presented here can be developed to replace a substantial part of electrochemical dyeing with optimized product quality and reduced environmental pollution in denim production. Social implications The strategy presented here can be developed to replace a substantial part of electrochemical dyeing with optimized product quality and reduced environmental pollution in denim production. Originality/value Application of the Fe(II)-DGS-Abal B complex media system in the indirect electrochemical reduction of indigo.

An alternative thioesterification reaction via copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of readily available aroylhydrazides with disulfides is developed, in which oxidative expulsion of N2 overcomes the activation barrier between the carboxylic acid derivatives and the products. The reaction produces various thioesters in good to excellent yields with good functional group tolerance. In the reaction, stable and easily available aroylhydrazides are used as acyl sources and the relatively odorless disulfides are used as S sources. Mechanistic investigations demonstrate that the reaction of copper salt and oxidant (NH4)2S2O8 allows for achievement of tandem processes, including deprotonation, free-radical-mediated denitrogenation, and C–S bond formation.

The membrane protein claudin-3 (CLDN3) is critical for the formation and maintenance of tight junction and its high expression has been implicated in dictating malignant progression in various cancers. However, the post-translational modification of CLDN3 and its biological function remains poorly understood. Here, we report that CLDN3 is positively correlated with ovarian cancer progression both in vitro and in vivo. Of interest, CLDN3 undergoes S -palmitoylation on three juxtamembrane cysteine residues, which contribute to the accurate plasma membrane localization and protein stability of CLDN3 . Moreover, the deprivation of S -palmitoylation in CLDN3 significantly abolishes its tumorigenic promotion effect in ovarian cancer cells. By utilizing the co-immunoprecipitation assay, we further identify ZDHHC12 as a CLDN3-targating palmitoyltransferase from 23 ZDHHC family proteins. Furthermore, the knockdown of ZDHHC12 also significantly inhibits CLDN3 accurate membrane localization, protein stability and ovarian cancer cells tumorigenesis . Thus, our work reveals S -palmitoylation as a novel regulatory mechanism that modulates CLDN3 function, which implies that targeting ZDHHC12-mediated CLDN3 S -palmitoylation might be a potential strategy for ovarian cancer therapy.
