In this study, the adsorption behavior of Pb(II) on natural-aged and virgin microplastics in different electrolyte solutions was investigated. The results demonstrated that natural-aged microplastics exhibited higher adsorption capacity for Pb(II) compared to virgin ones, and the addition of CaCl 2 strongly inhibited the adsorption amount of Pb(II). The adsorption kinetics of Pb(II) adsorption were better fitted by the pseudo-second order model and Elovich equation, and were slowed down greatly at higher ionic strength. The rate-limiting steps of adsorption process were dominated by intra-particle diffusion. The adsorption isotherm of Pb(II) onto microplastics affected by salt ions can be well described by Freundlich model, the greater adsorption efficiency of natural-aged microplastics proved that adsorption process was multilayer and heterogeneous. In addition, pH significantly influenced the adsorption of Pb(II) due to the changes electrostatic interactions. The effect of fulvic acid in the electrolyte solutions was also revealed and attributed to the complexation with Na + and Ca 2+ . Furthermore, the higher pH and ionic strength in different environmental water dramatically decreased adsorption capacity onto microplastics. Finally, it’s confirmed that the adsorption mechanisms affected by salt ions mainly involve electrostatic interaction, surface complexation, and ionic exchange. These findings indicate that salt ions exert an important influence on the adsorption of heavy metals for MPs, which should be further concerned.

In recent years, the surge in industrialization and urbanization has led to the release of a significant amount of heavy metal ions into water. These ions, when present in drinking water, can enter the human body and cause irreversible health problem. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have drawn considerable attention for their outstanding ability to remove these heavy metal ions. However, MOF powders tend to aggregate in water, reducing their adsorption efficiency and potentially leading to secondary environmental pollution. In this regard, the development of MOF composites that are highly adsorptive, recyclable, and maintain stable dispensability in water is crucial for heavy metal ions removal. Herein, the in situ growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) on melamine sponge (MS) using a secondary growth method is reported. The resultant composite sponges exhibit high efficiency in adsorbing Pb(II) and Cu(II) from water and maintain good reusability. These findings offer a promising method in efficiently eliminating Pb(II) and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions.

The nonferrous metal electrowinning process is energy intensive due to the sluggish dynamics of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on the anode. Developing novel anode materials with high OER activity and stability is imperative. Herein, we propose a novel Pb-ceramic composite anode by introducing ZnFe 2 O 4 . In this work, Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 and PS-Pb anodes were prepared through powder pressing and sintering processes. The effects of ZnFe 2 O 4 particles on the phase composition, surface morphology and inner structure of the oxide layer formed on Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 anodes were investigated. Furthermore, the role of ZnFe 2 O 4 in the anodic potential and stability of Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 anodes was discussed. The results show that as the ZnFe 2 O 4 content increases, the oxide layer formed on Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 anodes exhibits higher surficial compactness, higher integrity, and much smaller thickness. ZnFe 2 O 4 exhibits a trivial impact on the oxygen evolution dynamics. However, the anodic potential of the Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 anode declines as the ZnFe 2 O 4 content increases, which could be attributed to the higher compactness and smaller thickness of the oxide layer. As the ZnFe 2 O 4 content increases, the weight loss of the Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 composite anode increases, suggesting the unsatisfactory stability of Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 , which could be attributed to the inevitable dissolution of ZnFe 2 O 4 particles, smaller thickness of the oxide layer and larger porosity of the substrate. Although Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 composite anodes have the potential to reduce energy consumption, their unsatisfactory stability limits the feasibility of Pb-ZnFe 2 O 4 anodes in the electrowinning industry.

This study examined the neuroprotective properties of resveratrol (Res) and its target sirtuin1 (SIRT1) against lead (Pb)-mediated toxicity and discovered that both resveratrol treatment and SIRT1 overexpression restored blocked autophagic flux as well as reduced β-amyloid (Aβ) contents. Four-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were employed to consumed 0.2% Pb(Ac) 2 solution or deionized water for 3 months followed by 12 months of Res (50 mg/kg BW) or vehicle gavage. In in vitro study, SH-SY5Y cells were pretreated with the SIRT1 activator SRT1720 (2 μM) or the inhibitor EX527 (2 μM) for 2 h, then 25 μM of Pb(Ac) 2 was added and incubated for 48 h. Western blotting, RT-qPCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Lyso-Tracker Red Staining were next used to estimate the potential alterations of the autophagic pathway as well as BACE1-mediated amyloid processing in response to Pb exposure, respectively. Our data revealed that Res treatment or SIRT1 activation resisted the induction of autophagy by Pb exposure through inhibition of LC3 and Beclin-1 expression and promoted the degradation of Aβ and Tau phosphorylation. Besides, the SIRT1 activator (SRT1720) downregulated the expression of BACE1, the rate-limiting enzyme for Aβ production, by inhibiting the activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in Pb-treated SH-SY5Y cells, which resulted in reduced Aβ production. Collectively, we verified the role of Res-SIRT1-autophagy as well as the SIRT1-NF-κB-BACE1 pathway in Pb-induced neuronal cell injury by in vivo or in vitro models. Our findings further elucidate the important role of SIRT1 and Res in counteracting Pb neurotoxicity, which may provide new interventions and targets for the subsequent treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

The electrocaloric (EC) effect in ferroelectric materials has attracted extensive attention because of its high efficiency and potential applications in chip cooling. In this work, we successfully prepared a Pb(Sc 0.25 Ta 0.25 In 0.25 Nb 0.25 )O 3 (PSINT) ceramic via a solid-state reaction method with high-polar entropy. Next, the prepared ceramics were quenched at 1050 °C for various durations. The grain size of the quenched PSINT samples initially decreased to 0.39 μm and then gradually increased to 0.61 μm with a quenching time of 50 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the PSINT ceramics indicate that the PSINT sample transforms from the tetragonal (pseudo-cubic) to an R-3C rhombohedral phase. The measurements of the electrocaloric effect revealed a significant adiabatic temperature change (Δ T ) of approximately 1.98 K at 60 kV cm −1 and room temperature with a quenching time of 40 h. This value is 0.5 K higher than that of untreated PSINT ceramics. Moreover, the B-site atoms of the PSINT high-polar-entropy ceramics changed from a long-range ordered phase to a disordered phase after quenching. This study provides a new technical approach for room-temperature cooling devices by designing B-site disorder in relaxor ferroelectric ceramics.

A new chitosan-trithiocyanuric composite (CS@TMT) was synthesized by graft copolymerization using chloroacetyl chloride as the cross-linking agent. Using response surface analysis, the optimal conditions for the synthesis of CS@TMT were determined as: chloroacetyl chloride concentration of 2.0 mol/L, trithiocyanuric acid (TMT) addition of 7.0 g, and reaction temperature of 70 °C. The successful preparation of CS@TMT was confirmed FTIR spectrum, 13C NMR spectrum, SEM mapping, EDS, XRD and XPS. At ambient temperature (25 °C, pH=6.0, Catalyst dosage=1.0 g/L), the maximum Cr(VI) and Pb(II) adsorption amount of CS@TMT were 194.76 and 101.39 mg/g, respectively, compared to CS (97.15 and 69.76 mg/g). The Cr(VI) and Pb(II) removal process of CS@TMT was better fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model, and the adsorption process was spontaneous, endothermic and disordered. Under the reduction mechanism, 69.32% of Cr(VI) was reduced to Cr(III) by -SH and –OH group on CS@TMT.

The conventional method for the determination of heavy metals in food is acid digestion followed by atomic absorption spectrometry or induced coupled plasma mass spectrometry . However, for high salt foods, due to the strong matrix effect, the detection results are seriously inaccurate. In this work, sulfur-functionalized magnetic metal-organic frameworks (Fe 3 O 4 @UiO-66-SH) were synthesized by coating Fe 3 O 4 nanospheres with sulfydryl-functionalized UiO-66. The Fe 3 O 4 @UiO-66-SH possesses both the magnetic properties of Fe 3 O 4 and the diverse properties of metal-organic framework (MOF) in one material, which has the superiority of high surface area, easy-operation and strong adsorb ability with Pb (II) and Cd(II), is used to separate and determine Pb (II) and Cd(II) in high salt foods by magnetic solid phase extraction-induced plasma mass spectrometry. The detection limits (LODs) for Pb (II) and Cd(II) were 0.17 and 0.21 µg/kg, respectively, and the quantification limits (LOQs) were 0.56 and 0.66 µg/kg. Analyzing the certified reference material of soy sauce (CFAPA-QC1728–4, P41839) and estimating the spiked recoveries proved the accuracy and precision of the proposed method. The determined values agreed well with the reference values, and the recoveries for spiking sample varied from 85.8–100.5%.

Lead (II) (Pb(II)) is widespread in water and very harmful to creatures, and the efficient removal of it is still challenging. Therefore, we prepared a novel sponge-like polymer-based absorbent (poly(amic acid), PAA sponge) with a highly porous structure using a straightforward polymer self-assembly strategy for the efficient removal of Pb(II). In this study, the effects of the pH, dosage, adsorption time and concentration of Pb(II) on the adsorption behavior of the PAA sponge are investigated, revealing a rapid adsorption process with a removal efficiency up to 89.0% in 2 min. Based on the adsorption thermodynamics, the adsorption capacity increases with the concentration of Pb(II), reaching a maximum adsorption capacity of 609.7 mg g−1according to the Langmuir simulation fitting. Furthermore, the PAA sponge can be efficiently recycled and the removal efficiency of Pb(II) is still as high as 93% after five adsorption–desorption cycles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses reveal that the efficient adsorption of Pb(II) by the PAA sponge is mainly due to the strong interaction between nitrogen-containing functional groups and Pb(II), and the coordination of oxygen atoms is also involved. Overall, we propose a polymer self-assembly strategy to easily prepare a PAA sponge for the efficient removal of Pb(II) from water.

Nowadays, Lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd) contamination in rice is an important worldwide environmental concern. Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 NPs) and Nano hydroxyapatite (n-HAP) are promising materials to manage Pb and Cd contamination. This study systematically investigated the effect of Fe 3 O 4 NPs and n-HAP on Pb and Cd stressed rice seedlings’ growth, oxidative stress , Pb and Cd uptake and subcellular distribution in roots. Furthermore, we clarified the immobilization mechanism of Pb and Cd in the hydroponic system. Fe 3 O 4 NPs and n-HAP could reduce Pb and Cd uptake of rice mainly through decreasing Pb and Cd concentrations in culture solution and combining with Pb and Cd in root tissues. Pb and Cd were immobilized by Fe 3 O 4 NPs through complex sorption processes and by n-HAP through dissolution-precipitation and cation exchange, respectively. On the 7th day, 1000 mg/L Fe 3 O 4 NPs reduced the contents of Pb and Cd in shoots by 90.4% and 95.8%, in roots by 23.6% and 12.6%, 2000 mg/L n-HAP reduced the contents of Pb and Cd in shoots by 94.7% and 97.3%, in roots by 93.7% and 77.6%, respectively. Both NPs enhanced the growth of rice seedlings by alleviating oxidative stress and upregulating glutathione secretion and antioxidant enzymes activity . However, Cd uptake of rice was promoted at certain concentrations of NPs. The subcellular distribution of Pb and Cd in roots indicated that both NPs decreased the percentage of Pb and Cd in the cell wall, which was unfavorable for Pb and Cd immobilization in roots. Cautious choice was needed when using these NPs to manage rice Pb and Cd contamination.

Lead-containing wastewater comes mainly from batteries , petroleum refining, dyes, lead mine drainage and so on. Here, the nanosilica functionalized with diethanolamine (DPM-SNPs) was utilized as an adsorbent to remove lead ions from aqueous solution. TEM, SEM, XPS, FT-IR, Zeta potential and BET analyzer have been employed to characterize DPM-SNPs. The adsorption property of DPM-SNPs was studied by varying pH, reaction time, Pb(II) concentration and temperature. The selectivity, reusability and adsorption mechanism have been systematically studied. DPM-SNPs has a shorter adsorption equilibrium time (60 min) as well as a high efficiency for lead ions removal (154.38 mg/g) at 298 K. The optimized pH was 5.8, mainly due to electrostatic and chelation interactions between hydroxyl/amino groups and metal ions . DPM-SNPs showed better selectivity for Pb(II) again various interfering ions and the removal efficiency just decreased about 4% after five repeated circles. Besides, the adsorption behavior fit well to Pseudo-second-order kinetic, Langmuir and Dubinin-Radushkevich models, indicating that the chemical reaction is the rate-limiting step and the adsorption process belongs to monolayer adsorption. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous, feasible and endothermic. Thus, the nanosilica functionalized with diethanolamine is a potentially effective and sustainable adsorbent for application in lead removal from wastewater.

Herein, we reported the adsorption and desorption of Pb(II) on l -lysine modified montmorillonite (L-Mt) with molecular dynamics simulation. l -lysine (Lys) modified montmorillonite (L-Mt) was prepared, characterized by various analytical techniques, and the simulation studies were performed to evaluate the interlayer structure and interaction properties of l -lysine and L-Mt. The results of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum suggested that Lys + was intercalated into the interlayer of Na-montmorillonite (Na Mt) successfully. The batch adsorption experiments were implemented to study the adsorption capacity of Pb(II) on L-Mt in water. The maximum adsorption capacity of Pb(II) on the L-Mt (up to 43.3 mmol/100 g) were considerably higher than that on Na Mt (up to 15.3 mmol/100 g), at room temperature. The adsorption isotherms of both, L-Mt and Na Mt can fit the Langmuir isotherm . The adsorption experiments showed that Pb(II) removal efficiency of L-Mt is better than Na Mt in acidic solution. The simulation results revealed the micro-mechanism of Lys + inserted into the interlayer gallery of Na Mt. It can be deduced that lysine interacted with montmorillonite surface mainly through the protonated side-chain amino group rather than through the protonated main-chain amino group or deprotonated carboxyl group . These consequences are expected to elucidate the adsorption mechanisms occurring at the water/clay minerals interface at atom level, providing significant insight into the adsorption and retention of Pb(II) on L-Mt composite, and lead to relevant engineering applications while treating heavy metals of wastewater.

Composite adsorption materials combine the advantages of various adsorptive materials and compensate for the defects of single adsorbents. Magnetic montmorillonite (MMMT) shows good adsorption properties for Pb(II). In order to further improve the adsorption properties of MMMT, in this work, Zn-BDC, a kind of metal–organic framework (MOF), was modified onto the surface of MMMT by in situ polymerization. The composite material MMMT@Zn-BDC was characterized by Zetasizer, SEM, TEM, FTIR, XRD, VSM, and XPS. The influence of adsorption conditions on the adsorption capacity of MMMT@Zn-BDC for Pb(II) was examined, including the adsorbent dosage, pH of Pb(II) solution, initial concentration of Pb(II), and the temperature and adsorption time. Also, the adsorption mechanism was studied. The results of this study show that MMMT@Zn-BDC adsorbs Pb(II) via chemisorption. In addition, MMMT@Zn-BDC exhibits good potential for adsorbing Pb(II), including its high adsorption capacity (724.64 mg/g) and good recyclability.Keywords:Zn-BDC;magnetic montmorillonite;Pb(II);adsorption
