Dual-co-catalyst-modified photocatalysts enhance charge separation efficiency, but the traditional dual co-catalyst is still difficult to get a high separation efficiency due to size and aggregation. Herein, we report bimetallic MIL-53(Fe/Mn) as dual co-catalysts with separate electron and hole mediators. CdS NPs were in-situ grown into MIL-53(Fe/Mn) at varying ratios. 20 %CdS/MIL-53(Fe/Mn) composites shown optimum photocatalytic CO 2 reduction activity. The XPS results shown the strong interaction between CdS and MIL-53(Fe/Mn). The EPR measure proved the carriers of CdS can be transferred to MIL-53(Fe/Mn) oxidation cluster by the oxo-Fe(III)/Fe(II) and oxo-Mn(II)/Mn(III) redox cycling, and the results also suggest the oxo-Fe(III) and oxo-Mn(II) were redox active sites. We believe the approach that bimetallic MOFs act as dual cocatalyst to improve the photocatalytic activity would open a new avenue for the separation efficiency of photo-generated charge carriers.

Electronic-grade isopropyl alcohol is widely utilized in the cleaning of semiconductors and microelectronic components. Removing ions like Pb2+ is crucial since the presence of impurities may cause degradation of electronics, increased failure rates, and short circuits. Membrane materials offer a number of advantages in the field of adsorption separation; however, the lack of adsorption sites results in limited adsorption capacity. In the current work, guanidino-grafted NH2-MIL-101(Fe) was incorporated into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) to prepare MOF/PVDF mixed matrix membranes (NM/PVDF) for the removal of Pb2+ from isopropanol. Benefiting from the larger specific surface area and more lone electron pairs in the guanidine group, the Pb2+ adsorption capacity of the as-prepared NM/PVDF membrane was 29.4458 mg/g, which was higher than that of the NH2-MIL-101(Fe)/PVDF membrane (20.9306 mg/g) and the pure PVDF membrane (6.7324 mg/g). The NM/PVDF membrane was able to reduce the concentration of Pb2+ from 500 to 86.73 ppb. This work highlights the potential of guanidine-grafted Fe-based MOFs/PVDF membranes as adsorbents for acquisition of electronic-grade solvents.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is widely used as precursor for carbon-supported single-metal-atom catalysts (M–N–C), but typically yields amorphous carbon with poor stability in proton-exchange-membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Traditional methods would lose active site density while increasing the graphitization degree. Here, this study reports that ultra-small nano ZIF-8 can produce graphene-nanostacks-based Fe–N–C that has improvements on both activity and stability. First, anti-sintering nanoporous ZIF-8 (nano-ZIF8) particles are synthesized with unit size of 8 nm (the smallest so far) using a destruction-reconstruction strategy. In situ microscopy reveals that the volatilization of Zn has a decisive effect on the graphitization degree of ZIF-8 and such process is size-dependent. Nano-ZIF8 particles have completed Zn volatilization before graphitization process beginning, leading to graphene nanostacks. These nanostacks preferentially host edge-type FeN 4 sites, which have doubled intrinsic activity and much improved stability compared with conventional Fe−N−C. In PEMFC, the catalyst achieves an activity of 48.5 mA cm − 2 @0.9V iR -free , meeting the US Department of Energy 2025 activity target. In addition, quantitative analysis of active site density is conducted in PEMFC for the first time using nitrite stripping voltammetry. The unique graphitization behavior of nano-ZIF8 paves a new avenue for advancing M–N–C catalysts.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), especially Fe-MOFs, have shown prospective application in eliminating organic dyes from wastewater due to their well-developed pores, water stability, easy preparation, and economy. Herein, we synthesized four types of Fe-MOFs (such as MIL-88A, MIL-88B, MIL-100, and MIL-101) using the hydrothermal method. The products were analyzed with several methods. By comparing the adsorption effect of those four types of Fe-MOFs on three kinds of dyes, it has been shown that MIL-100 owns the best adsorption efficiency on cationic organic dyes methylene blue (MB) and Rhodamine B (RhB) in 180 min, while all MOFs have slight removal capacity on methyl orange (MO). MIL-100, as an adsorbent, was studied under various research conditions, and the maximum removal efficiencies to MB, RhB, and MO were found to be up to 97.36%, 88.75%, and 13.00%, respectively. Furthermore, cationic dye MB’s removal by MIL-100 was fitted with a pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model (Qm = 411.041 mg/g) by adsorption kinetics and isotherms research, and MIL-100 could rapidly and selectively divide MB from a binary complex aqueous solution of MB and MO. The as-fabricated MIL-100 also exhibited excellent recyclability after four adsorption–desorption recycles and can be treated as a potential substance with high removal efficiency of cationic organic dye-containing industrial effluents.

Compared with visceral cancers, breast cancer is epidermal and can be efficiently eliminated by photoacoustic imaging (PAI)-guided cancer therapy. In this study, we developed multifunctional nanoparticles (DMTH NPs) by loading doxorubicin (DOX) into MIL-100, which were modified with tannic acid (TA) and hyaluronic acid (HA) using a simple and convenient method. MIL-100 (Fe) in DMTH NPs allowed for chemodynamic therapy by converting endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) into •OH through a Fenton-like reaction to assist DOX in killing cancer cells. DMTH NPs had high DOX loading efficiency for chemotherapeutic function and had the ability for photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and photothermal therapy (PTT) after being modified by TA. Specifically, DMTH NPs targeted tumors and had low toxicity in vivo . Ultimately, the released DOX and •OH cooperated in killing MCF-7 cells effectively in vitro . The enhanced and precise breast cancer treatment was achieved using a PAI-guided chemodynamic/chemo/photothermal synergistic therapy under laser irradiation in vivo . Overall, this work presented an innovative strategy for designing multifunctional nanoparticles for effective imaging-guided combination therapies to combat breast cancer.

Purpose Soil organic matter pollution is a serious threat to the human living environment. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of MIL-101(Fe)/g-C 3 N 4 catalyzed peroxynitrite degradation of 2-chlorophenol in soil and to analyze the reaction mechanism and further to explore the optimal parameters of this reaction system with utilizing the mathematical model. Methods MIL-101(Fe)/g-C 3 N 4 was successfully obtained by hydrothermal synthesis method by growing MIL-101(Fe) on the surface of g-C 3 N 4 to catalyze the degradation of 2-CP (2-chlorophenol) in soil by sodium persulfate. The influence factors on the removal rate of 2-CP were analyzed by the response surface methodology (RSM) and combined with theoretical calculations. RSM can be used to model continuous variable surfaces with less data and determine the optimal level range. Results MIL-101(Fe)/g-C 3 N 4 had a good catalytic performance due to its good catalytic properties and the adsorption of g-C 3 N 4 on 2-CP in the system and made the best removal rate of 2-CP increase to 91.2%. The correlation of model fitting results was significant, and the verification of its optimal parameters yielded results with an error of only 4.1%. Conclusion Further studies revealed that SO 4 •− and • OH were the reactive radicals, and SO 4 •− was the dominant, which impelled Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ to interconvert in the complex system. Possible degradation pathways were derived by analyzing the intermediates. Generally, this experiment provides some ideas for future research of MOFs in soil organic pollutant removal systems.

The irreversible capacity loss in the first cycle significantly reduces the specific capacity of lithium ion batteries. Cathode prelithiation is a common method to alleviate this problem. Here, Fe/Li2O were successfully prepared by in situ solid phase reaction method. Fe/Li2O as a cathode prelithiation additive has a high prelithiation specific capacity of 447.3 mAh g -1 during charging, and the first charge capacity of LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 with 7.5% Fe/Li2O additive could be enhanced by 9.1% and its cycling stability was improved from 86.9% to 90.2% after 70 cycles. The cathode prelithiation additive remarkably enhanced the content of active lithium during the initial delithiation process, contributing the formation of solid electrolyte interphase on the anode surface and better cycling stability. This easy-operating cathode prelithiation method could obtain evident effect of prelithiation and had good compatibility with existing lithium ion batteries.

A novel integrative supramolecular intumescent flame retardant was fabricated by self-assembly of melamine, p -aminobenzene sulfonic acid and phytic acid and was abbreviated as MAP. After chelation with Fe 3+ or Zn 2+ , the resulted products (MAP-Fe and MAP-Zn) were melt-blended with polylactic acid (PLA) to enhance the flame retardancy of PLA. The fire performance was characterized by limiting oxygen index (LOI), UL-94 vertical burning and cone calorimeter tests. The results showed that control PLA was flammable with a low LOI of 20.4%, and it cannot satisfy any UL-94 grade for its severe ignited dripping, whilst the incorporation of 3% MAP-Zn increased the LOI to 29.2%, upgraded the UL-94 rating to V-0, and reduced the peak heat release rate by 18.7%. It was proposed that MAP-Zn mainly promoted the formation of more graphitic carbon in the char residues . In addition, the presence of 3% MAP-Zn slightly reduced the tensile strength of PLA from 64.9 MPa of the control PLA to 60.1 MPa, which met the requirements of most practical applications.

A feasible and green sol-gel method is proposed to fabricate well-distributed nano-particulate Fe-Ni2P incorporated in N, P-codoped porous carbon nanosheets (Fe-Ni2P@N,P-CNSs) using biomass agarose as a carbon source, and ethylenediamine tetra (methylenephosphonic acid) (EDTMPA) as both the N and P source. The doped Fe in Ni2P is essential for a substantial increase in intrinsic catalytic activity, while the combined N,P-containing porous carbon matrix with a better degree of graphitization endows the prepared Fe-Ni2P@N,P-CNSs catalyst with a high specific surface area and improved electrical conductivity. Benefiting from the specific chemical composition and designed active site structure, the as-synthesized Fe-Ni2P@N,P-CNSs manifests a satisfying catalytic performance toward both oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline solution, with low overpotential, small Tafel slope and long-term durability, relative to the counterparts (Fe-free Ni12P5/Ni2P2O7@N,P-CNSs and CNSs) with single components and even comparable to Pt/C and RuO2 catalysts. The present work broadens the exploration of efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts using earth abundant biomass as carbon sources based on non-noble metals for low cost renewable energy conversion/storage.

In this paper, we studied the effect of M-doped graphitic carbon nitride (M-g-C 3 N 4 , M = Fe, Nd, Ce, Zr, U) as a catalyst for the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate-based molecular perovskite DAP-4. DAP-4 was synthesized by a molecular assembly strategy. G-C 3 N 4 and M-g-C 3 N 4 composite samples were prepared by pyrolytic and co-sintering methods. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersion X-ray spectrometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the morphology, structure, element distribution, and element chemical states of the catalysts. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to elevate the thermal catalytic decomposition effect of g-C 3 N 4 and M-g-C 3 N 4 on DAP-4. The results showed that g-C 3 N 4 and M-g-C 3 N 4 have catalytic activity for the thermal decomposition of DAP-4. Among the tested catalysts, Fe-g-C 3 N 4 had the best catalytic activity for the thermal decomposition of DAP-4, as well as advantages over pure g-C 3 N 4 and other M-g-C 3 N 4 catalysts. Especially, Fe-g-C 3 N 4 reduced the peak temperature of DAP-4 by 75.3 °C, increased heat release by 464 J g −1 , and decreased activation energy by 55.5 kJ mol −1 . Moreover, a possible catalytic mechanism is proposed. This work may offer a new way to promote the application of DAP-4 in the field of solid rocket propellants.

In this study, a novel Fe–Mn–Ce oxide-modified biochar composite (FMCBC) was synthesized via pyrolysis to enhance the adsorption capacity of biochar (BC). Scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed that Fe, Mn, and Ce were successfully loaded onto the surface of the BC. A series of adsorption experiments showed that the FMCBC exhibited improved adsorption of As(III) in an aqueous environment. The adsorption process was well expressed by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption capacity of FMCBC reached 8.74 mg L −1 , which was 3.27 times greater than that of BC. The pH of the solution significantly influenced the adsorption of As(III), where the amount of As(III) adsorbed by FMCBC was maximized at pH 3. A high phosphate concentration inhibited adsorption, whereas nitrate and sulfate ions promoted As(III) adsorption and increased the FMCBC adsorption capacity. Similarly, with increasing humic acid concentration, the adsorption capacity of FMCBC for As(III) decreased; however, a low concentration of humic acid promoted adsorption. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis revealed that the adsorption of As(III) by FMCBC occurred through redox and surface complexation reactions. Therefore, FMCBC has excellent potential for purifying arsenic-contaminated water.

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a great crucial half-reaction in many energy conversion and storage techniques to alleviate the problems of the energy crisis and environmental pollution. However, the development of a low-cost and easy-to-prepare OER electrocatalyst with glorious performance and superior stability remains a huge challenge. Recently, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted tremendous interest owing to their charming features including ultrafine porosity, rich active metal sites and tunable structures. However, most MOFs directly acting as electrocatalysts for the OER have intrinsic low electrical conductivity, poor electrochemical activities and short-term durability, hindering their practical application. Herein, we develop a facile and effective one-pot solvothermal method to rationally design a new S-doped Fe-based organic framework grown on nickel foam (NF), which prominently boosts the OER performance. Specifically, S0.05–Fe-BTB/NF exhibits remarkable OER activity with an ultralow overpotential of only 231 mV to afford 20 mA cm−2 current density without iR drop compensation in alkaline media, as well as a small Tafel slope of 41 mV dec−1, superior to that of the commercial RuO2 electrocatalyst. Particularly, it also demonstrates outstanding catalytic durability under an overpotential of 235 mV for 50 h. More significantly, the probable active species during the OER process are determined to be the electrochemically transformed metal oxyhydroxide.
