Developing superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic surfaces to restrict oil pollution during oil/water separation processes has been an effective approach. However, the inevitable adsorption and aggregation of organic contaminants onto the membrane surface from complex oily sewage usually causes an irreversible decrease in flux, damages the anti-oil-fouling properties and shortens the lifespan of the separation membrane. Thus, neoteric antifouling and renewable membranes are highly desired. Herein, based on stabilized PAN nanofibers and following the assembly of a heterostructured PPy/ZnO layer with hierarchical structure onto the nanofiber surfaces, we report a robust visible-light-induced self-repairable oil/water separation membrane. The SPAN–PPy/ZnO membrane displays superhydrophilicity (≈0°) and underwater superoleophobicity (>150°) toward different oils, with robust mechanical strength (Young's modulus ≈ 408 MPa) and a high underwater oil intrusion pressure (>120 kPa). Importantly, the as-prepared membrane not only exhibits ultrafast permeation flux and high separation efficiency for oil/dye/water emulsions, but it also displays robust recovery abilities (96%) from organic pollutants after 20 min of light irradiation. We anticipate that this composite membrane with outstanding separation capabilities and robust flux recovery capabilities can provide a novel method for the treatment and purification of large volumes of wastewater.

Here, an integrated cascade nanozyme with a formulation of Pt@PCN222-Mn is developed to eliminate excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS). This nanozyme mimics superoxide dismutase by incorporation of a Mn–[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrinato]–based metal-organic framework compound capable of transforming oxygen radicals to hydrogen peroxide. The second mimicked functionality is that of catalase by incorporation of Pt nanoparticles, which catalyze hydrogen peroxide disproportionation to water and oxygen. Both in vitro and in vivo experimental measurements reveal the synergistic ROS-scavenging capacity of such an integrated cascade nanozyme. Two forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD; i.e., ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease) can be effectively relieved by treatment with the cascade nanozyme. This study not only provides a new method for constructing enzyme-like cascade systems but also illustrates their efficient therapeutic promise in the treatment of in vivo IBDs.

Lithium–sulfur (Li-S) batteries with exceptional theoretical capacities and environmentally friendly characteristics have been investigated as next-generation energy storage devices. However, the dissolution and diffusion of polysulfide result in a rapid capacity degeneration, which hinders their practical application. Here, poly(ionic liquid) (PIL)-based core–shell structured nanofibers, poly(pyrrole)@poly(ionic liquid)–polyacrylonitrile (PPy@PIL–PAN), were prepared via electrospinning and followed by a surface polymerization of pyrrole. The as-prepared PPy@PIL–PAN nanofibers were implemented as a functional interlayer for Li-S batteries, and it is found that the cationic poly(ionic liquid) framework could selectively adsorb polysulfide species in the electrolytes, contributing to effective shuttle inhibition as well as stable sulfur electrochemistry. Moreover, this work sheds light on an efficient approach to improving the performance of Li-S batteries by using PIL-based functional interlayers.

Ferrocene-based porous organic polymer (FcPOP) was constructed with ferrocene and porphyrin derivatives as building blocks via Schiff-base coupling. FcPOP was well characterized, and exhibited good thermal stability, high porosity, microporous structure, and homogeneous pore size distribution. Ferrocene blocks with highly electron-rich characteristics endowed FcPOP with excellent adsorption capacity of CO 2 and methyl violet. The kinetic study indicated adsorption of methyl violet onto FcPOP mainly complied with pesudo-second order model. The maximum adsorption capacity of FcPOP derived from Langmuir isotherm model reached up to 516 mg/g. More importantly, FcPOP could be easily regenerated and repeatedly employed for removal of methyl violet with high efficiency. Overall, FcPOP in the present study highlighted prospective applications in the field of gas capture and dyeing wastewater treatment.

Uranium is a kind of natural radionuclide, when the human body is exposed to higher uranium radioactive conditions, it will cause adverse effects on their health. Therefore, the analysis and detection of uranyl ions in the environment is a vital prerequisite for preventing uranium pollution. A bipolar bidentate ligand isophthalaldehyde-tetrapyrrole (IPTP) was first synthesized and a study was characterized by its structure and spectral properties. In the present work, an innovative electrochemical sensor by using IPTP as a ligand for uranyl (VI) ion (UO 2 2+ ), α-methacrylic acid as functional monomer and uranyl (VI) ion as a template, a relatively stable structure was constructed by stirring at 35 °C. Then, the polymer sol-gel was acquired by combining sol-gel processing under alkaline conditions, which was added dropwise to the surface of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) which had been modified with graphene (GR). The introduction of graphene allowed the reduction peak current of uranyl ions to be increased significantly. Under the optimum experimental conditions (pH=5 and the adsorption time=20 min), the ion-imprinted sensor was designed by adopting differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) for the sensing of uranyl (VI) ions. The detection technique successfully achieved the determination of uranyl ion in the concentration range 1.0 × 10 −10 mol L − 1 to 1.0 × 10 −7 mol L − 1 , in practical soil samples with excellent repeatability and recovery (97.3%-102.9%).

Rational design of highly active electrode materials made of low-cost and earth-abundant transition metal phosphides is essential to boost the energy density and overall performance of electrochemical capacitors. In this work, homologous 3D NiCoP/CoP hetero-nanosheets network supported on N-doped carbon nanotubes are synthesized through one-step phosphorization of nickel cobalt hydroxide. The synergistic effects between NiCoP and CoP in the heterointerface are studied systematically through tuning the molar ratio of original Ni/Co. As a result, the optimized N-CNTs@NiCoP/CoP (with the Ni/Co ratio of 1:2) reveals a remarkable specific capacity of 152 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 and a superior rate capability with a capacity retention of 61% even at 30 A g −1 . A hybrid supercapacitor assembled with N-CNTs@NiCoP/CoP cathode and ZIF-67-derived porous carbon anode exhibits a high energy density of 45.5 Wh kg −1 at power density of 784 W kg −1 and excellent stability of 87% retention after 10,000 cycles at 12 A g −1 . Such excellent electrochemical performance of N-CNTs@NiCoP/CoP is mainly ascribed to the strong synergistic effect between NiCoP and CoP in their heterojunctions, enlarged surface area and active sites due to the 3D nanosheets network and conductive N-CNTs support.

In clinical treatment, multidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the major obstacles resulting in the failure of chemotherapy. It is still a challenge to overcome MDR. Herein, we fabricated intelligent dextran-based dual-drug delivery systems histidine modified dextran conjugated doxorubicin/zinc porphyrin/paclitaxel (DHTD/Zn-TPP/PTX) via supramolecular metallo-coordination for synergistic chemo-photodynamic therapy to overcome cancer drug resistance. In this designed DHTD/Zn-TPP/PTX, one anticancer drug (doxorubicin, DOX) was conjugated on the dextran backbone through a reactive oxygen species sensitive linker and the other drug PTX was encapsulated into the acid responsive supramolecular micelles formed by the photosensitizer Zn-TPP and histidine grafted on dextran. DHTD/Zn-TPP/PTX with excellent stability could be effectively internalized by tumour cells. In the acidic tumour environment, the loaded PTX and Zn-TPP as photosensitizer could be released; moreover, when irradiated with light the conjugated DOX could be specifically released because the linker broke. As the obtained data indicate, DHTD/Zn-TPP/PTX exhibited not only an enhanced anticancer therapeutic effect but also significant growth inhibition for drug-resistant MCF-7/ADR cells to reverse MDR, having great potential for synergistic treatments of cancer to overcome MDR. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry

Graphical HER electrocatalysis : We developed a novel Pt(II)-porphyrin based catalyst for HER electrocatalysis, its optimised performance can be quantitatively designed in molecular level. The optimized Pt(II)-porphyrin loading and precisely morphology control could be fine-tuned and quantitatively premeditated by using fluorescence and UV-vis titration based on the unique π–π interactions behaviour of the porphyrin. This study provides a new approach for preparing a highly active and stable HER catalyst, which could potentially be extended to other reactions to improve the utilization efficiency of precious metal catalysts. Functionalised porphyrins have attracted considerable attention owing to their ability to coordinate with numerous metal ions. We design and synthesize a novel composite system based on functionalised Pt(II)-porphyrin and multiwalled carbon nanotubes for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysis. Rather than qualitatively integrating porphyrin with carbon nanotubes, the optimized Pt(II)-porphyrin loading and precisely morphology control could be fine-tuned and quantitatively premeditated by using fluorescence and UV-vis titration based on the unique π–π interactions behaviour of the porphyrin for the first time. The as-prepared composites exhibit superior HER catalytic activity with an overpotential of 35 mV for an electrocatalytic current density of j=−10 mA cm −2 and a Tafel slope of 32.3 mV dec −1 . Moreover, such catalysts do not exhibit observable activity decay after a 1000-cycle stability test, thus demonstrating their excellent durability. To further reduce Pt loading to achieve cost efficiency, we develop a Pt−Co bimetallic HER catalyst with an ultra-low platinum content through a straightforward synthesis pathway with high catalytic activity and stability. This study provides a new approach for preparing a highly active and stable HER catalyst, which could potentially be extended to other reactions to improve the utilization efficiency of precious metal catalysts.

Due to the obstacle of sluggish kinetics on cathode of fuel cells and metal–air batteries, developing low-cost and durable electrocatalysts to replace the platinum-based catalysts still remains a grand challenge. Here, we describe a simple self-template approach to synthesize N-doped mesoporous carbon nanocages (FeCo@NC) embedded with FeCo alloy nanoparticles as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalyst. The resulting heterostructure is derived from corresponding PBA@PPy composites, which are pre-prepared by polymerization of polypyrrole (PPy) layer on Prussian blue analogue (PBA) nanocubes. The FeCo alloy nanoparticles with an average particle size of ∼10 nm are well dispersed and confined within the shell of carbon nanocages. Benefiting from the mesoporous structure and the synergetic interaction of binary metals, the optimized FeCo@NC-3-800 electrocatalyst exhibits comparable ORR performances (0.83 V for half-wave potential (E 1/2 ), 5.323 mA cm −2 for limiting current density (J k )), superior durability and excellent methanol tolerance to the commercial Pt/C (20 wt%). This work provides an appropriate strategy for general, efficient and practical synthesis of more promising non-precious metal electrocatalyst with high ORR activity.

In this study, conductive cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were coated with polypyrrole (PPy) using in situ chemical polymerization to form CNC-PPy conductive nano-network. The one-pot polymerization of “hard” segment methyl methacrylate (MMA) was continued onto above functionalized CNCs, then blended with “soft” molecular segment polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to contain self-healing and conductive composite film (CPMV) fabricated by soft-hard network. In addition, the tensile strength of CPMV films with 2 wt% CNC-PPy was enhanced by 47.1%. Also, CPMV films exhibited self-healing properties due to the presence of hydrogen bonding dynamic network and showed sensitive resistance changes under external stimuli, which could be used to monitor various actions of the human body. Thus, the CPMV films present potential applications in electronic devices such as flexible electrodes , biosensors, and implantable devices .

A porphyrin structure carbon dots (CDs) with red fluorescence is prepared by the reaction of terephthalaldehyde with pyrrole under the trifluoroacetic acid catalyst. The CDs with an average particle size of 5.70 nm are red-emission with a maximum fluorescent wavelength at 650 nm due to the large conjugate structure of the porphyrin ring, giving rise to a quantum yield of 14%. The aldehyde groups in CDs make self-aggregation possible, and promote the effective coating of CDs around Transferrin (Trf) via the Schiff base reaction, forming [email protected] nanocomposites with a particle size of 19.7 nm. Trf can specifically target cells with Trf receptors on the surface of cell membrane.

The treatment of wastewater generated by textile industry has attracted researchers' attentions, and photocatalysis is considered as a good strategy to solve this problem because of the strong redox capacity. Herein, a novel visible light-responsive cotton-PPy-MWCNTs-BiVO 4 photocatalytic material with the hierarchical structure was successfully prepared by a simple layer assembly method. The composite material has excellent degradation performance for reactive brilliant blue (RB-19) dye solution, and the degradation efficiency can reach 97.8% under visible light irradiation for 2 h. The performance improvement is mainly ascribed to the interaction between polypyrrole (PPy) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in the system, where PPy can efficiently transfer holes and MWCNTs can separate electrons, thereby greatly speeding up the separation of photogenerated carriers. The loading of BiVO 4 , PPy and MWCNTs on cotton fabrics exhibits better stability and recyclability than traditional powdery photocatalysts. In sum, this paper provides a feasible idea for the application of flexible cellulose-based photocatalytic materials.
