Elucidating the impacts of gaseous pollutants on secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation mechanisms is critical for developing effective PM2.5 mitigation strategies. However, the combined effects of NOx (NOx = NO2 + NO) and SO2 on SOA compositions under complex photochemical conditions remain mechanistically unresolved. Here, we investigated the individual roles of NO2/NO and their combined effects with SO2 on β-myrcene photooxidation. Our results showed that NO2 enhanced the SOA yield and the O:C ratio through oxidant amplification, whereas NO suppressed nucleation and oxidation states of products but facilitated particle size growth via organic nitrate partitioning. SO2 exhibited significant synergistic effects with both NO2 and NO, facilitating particle formation and growth processes. The newly built vacuum ultraviolet free electron laser photoionization aerosol mass spectrometer enabled the observation of a series of new compounds (i.e., organic peroxides, organic nitrate, and organosulfates) and identified new mechanisms of SOA formation. Notably, a novel compound with a molecular weight of 287 was characterized to be a nitrogen- and sulfur-containing species. These findings highlight the critical roles of pollutants in particle formation in environmental processes and provide key scientific support for regional air quality management and climate change mitigation.

Graphical Potassium titanate (K 2 Ti 8 O 17 ) nanobelts (KTN) are a unique support for Au and bimetallic AuRh nanoparticles showing strong enhancement of the catalytic reduction of NO with CO to N 2 .The KTN support facilitates the formation of surface nitrate, carbonate and isocyanide species, resulting in superior catalytic activity compared to corresponding TiO 2 -supported catalysts. The catalytic reduction of NO with CO was examined over monometallic Au and bimetallic AuRh nanoparticles supported on potassium titanate (K 2 Ti 8 O 17 ) nanobelts (KTN) and TiO 2 . The highly crystalline KTN, prepared from TiO 2 by a hydrothermal process using KOH, were several μm long and ca. 8 nm wide. Both Au and bimetallic AuRh catalysts showed a striking enhancement of the catalytic performance with KTN as support, compared to corresponding TiO 2 -supported catalysts. The reasons for this behavior could be traced back using in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy in tandem with modulation excitation spectroscopy, which proved that the KTN support promotes the formation of surface nitrate (−NO 3 − ), carbonate (−CO 3 2− ), and isocyanide (−NCO) species. In particular, the combination of KTN with bimetallic AuRh nanoparticles results in the facile formation of isocyanide, which is a pivotal intermediate for producing dinitrogen molecules via the reaction with NO; NCO (a) +NO (a) →N 2 +CO 2 .

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common and recurring malignancies in gynecology. Patients with relapsed OC always develop "cascade drug resistance" (CDR) under repeated chemotherapy, leading to subsequent failure of chemotherapy. To overcome this challenge, amphiphiles (P1) carrying a nitric oxide (NO) donor (Isosorbide 5-mononitrate, ISMN) and high-density disulfide are synthesized for encapsulating mitochondria-targeted tetravalent platinum prodrug (TPt) to construct a nanocomposite (INP@TPt). Mechanism studies indicated that INP@TPt significantly inhibited drug-resistant cells by increasing cellular uptake and mitochondrial accumulation of platinum, depleting glutathione, and preventing apoptosis escape through generating highly toxic peroxynitrite anion (ONOO − ). To better replicate the microenvironmental and histological characteristics of the drug resistant primary tumor, an OC patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX OC ) model in BALB/c nude mice was established. INP@TPt showed the best therapeutic effects in the PDX OC model. The corresponding tumor tissues contained high ONOO − levels, which were attributed to the simultaneous release of O 2 •− and NO in tumor tissues. Taken together, INP@TPt-based systematic strategy showed considerable potential and satisfactory biocompatibility in overcoming platinum CDR, providing practical applications for ovarian therapy.

Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are expected to realize efficient separation of CO 2 . However, interfacial compatibility issues between MOFs and polymer matrices limit their performance. In this work, a post-synthesis modification (PSM) strategy was adopted to convert UiO-66 into porous liquids (PLs). MMMs were prepared by incorporating PLs into PIM-1 matrix. The PLs have a liquid-like behavior and can be evenly scattered in PIM-1 matrix to form an interface without defect. The SEM morphology analysis further certified that MMMs had no interface defect and PLs had brilliant compatibility with the polymer film . In addition, the CO 2 -philic ether bonds of the EO fragments enable the MMMs to have superior CO 2 selective separation. Compared with pure PIM-1, the highest CO 2 permeability was improved by 158.0 % and 62.5 % was the increase in CO 2 /N 2 selectivity, arriving at 7211.7 Barrer and 26.0, respectively. Meanwhile, the overall separation performance of MMMs for CO 2 /N 2 exceeds the 2008 Robson upper limit, showing outstanding gas separation performance.

Antimicrobial sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has broad application potential in the eradication of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections due to its non-invasiveness, absence of resistance concern, and high cytotoxicity. However, the hypoxic infection microenvironment and the rapid depletion of O2 during SDT severely limit the therapeutic efficacy of SDT. Herein, an ultrasound-controllable ROS-responsive nanoplatform (FOT/Fe3O4@Lipo-ICG) was constructed and prepared by encapsulating FOT and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) within sonosensitiser ICG-modified liposomes. Both in vitro and in vivo, we observed that the ICG conjugation on the surface of liposomes could effectively maintain a good dispersion and prevent ICG aggregates in complex biological matrices. In addition, the liposomes could significantly block the catalytic activity of the Fe3O4 NPs, as well as the release of FOT, whereas upon US irradiation, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4 NPs was recovered to catalyse the decomposition of endogenous H2O2 into O2 and •OH. Meanwhile, the FOT was successfully released to react with endogenous glutathione to sequentially produce NO. Based on the aforementioned advantages, the FOT/Fe3O4@Lipo-ICG demonstrated potent efficacy in eradicating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-induced local infection and sepsis resulting from local infection. Thus, the developed US-controllable nanoplatform offers a promising strategy for enhancing SDT for eradicating MDR bacterial infections.

This study reports on the development of highly-efficient Pt/CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 monolithic catalysts for the low-temperature conversion of NO to N 2 via CO-SCR. In this case, ultrathin TiO 2 nanosheet arrays are designed to in situ grow on flexible Ti mesh to provide more spaces/areas for the loading of highly-dispersed Fe 2 O 3 and CuO active components. Furthermore, Pt nanoparticles with an average size of 1.30 nm are effectively decorated on the surface of CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 . The H 2 -TPR and NO-TPD results demonstrate that the excellent synergistic effect between TiO 2 , CuO, Fe 2 O 3 and trace amounts of Pt is conducive to enhance the adsorption of NO and finally promote the CO-SCR. The obtained Pt/CuO-Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 catalysts exhibit excellent CO-SCR performance with 100 % NO conversion, and 100 % N 2 selectivity at 250 °C, showing great potential of de-NO x application by using toxic CO as reductant in industry.

Although the surface acidity of CeO2 has been increased by H2SO4 to increase its acid sites, the low-temperature (<250 °C) activity of sulfated CeO2 catalysts still needs to be improved. In this study, a Pt-modified CeO2 catalyst was prepared by impregnation or reduction methods to increase its catalytic activity. The results showed the Pt-modified CeO2 catalyst significantly widened its low-temperature catalytic window. The NO conversion and N2 selectivity of the Pt1.0%/SCe-I sample were both more than 90% at 200–350 °C because of its numerous acid sites, excellent redox ability, and higher Pt2+ content. NH3, NH4+, –NH2, and bridging nitrates and monodentate nitrates on the Pt1.0%/SCe-I catalyst surface acted as the active substances. Among them, coordinated NH3 at the Lewis acid sites reacted first. This study highlights the interactions among metals, sulfates, and carriers and supplies a useful method to improve the low-temperature activity of sulfated CeO2.

Graphical A novel phase transfer catalyst comprising phosphotungstic acid and biquaternary ammonium cation salt is synthesized for the epoxidation of long carbon chain olefins under solvent-free conditions, which exhibits high selectivity for epoxides. Different methods are used to characterize the fundamental structure and catalytic mechanism of this catalyst. In this study, we have developed a novel catalyst synthesized by phosphotungstic acid and a gemini quaternary ammonium cation salt. This quaternary ammonium salt not only reduces the interfacial tension between olefins and hydrogen peroxide but also forms a notably stable structure with phosphotungstic acid. Dodecene was successfully epoxidized to epoxy dodecane with a selectivity of 82.9 %. The impact of initial conditions was systematically investigated such as molar ratio, temperature, reaction time, and catalyst dosage on the catalytic performance. Characterization of the catalyst morphology was performed by SEM, TEM and SAXS. Raman spectra, FT-IR and XPS spectra were employed to perform the catalyst transformation during the epoxidation reaction. This catalytic mechanism study could provide the industrial application in the epoxidation of long-chain olefins.

In this work, TiO 2 nanocones grown on SiC membrane was used as the support of V 2 O 5 -WO 3 species to prepare V 2 O 5 -WO 3 /TiO 2 @SiC (VWTi(C-X)@SiC) catalytic membrane for dust filtration and NH 3 -SCR denitration. On account of the large specific surface area, abundant surface acid sites and prominent redox property, the optimized VWTi(C-550)@SiC catalytic membrane shows >90% NO removal efficiency at the temperature of 280–360 °C, which are much higher than VWTi(P-550)/SiC catalytic membrane (TiO 2 nanoparticles prepared by traditional vacuum coating titanium sol method was used as the support of V 2 O 5 -WO 3 species, NO conversion <80% at whole tested temperature). Additionally, VWTi(C-550)@SiC displays superior stability during the SO 2 + H 2 O resistance and 300 h long-term test at 300 °C, and exhibits an excellent dust filtration performance (2.5 μm SiO 2 particles interception rate exceeded 99.99%) under all test conditions. More importantly, the structure of nanocones decrease the influence of tensile stresses due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of TiO 2 and SiC membranes, which significantly suppress the fall of VWTi catalyst layer from the surface of SiC during pulse-jet cleaning. Among above results, it can be concluded that the optimized VWTi(C-550)@SiC catalytic membrane shows a prosperous application prospect for the simultaneously dust filtration and NH 3 -SCR denitration of medium–high temperature flue gas .

Using solvothermal methods to in situ oxidize two-dimensional titanium carbide (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) MXene into TiO 2 nanocrystals offered an effective strategy to construct highly efficient TiO 2 /Ti 3 C 2 T x heterojunctions for photocatalytic applications. Nevertheless, the effect of the chosen solvent on the Ti 3 C 2 T x oxidation and the product's performance was often neglected. Herein, isopropanol (ISO), ethanol (EtOH), ethylene glycol (EG), dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and deionized water (Water) were taken as the representative solvents to prepare TiO 2 /Ti 3 C 2 T x composites by one-step solvothermal method for photocatalytic NO emission. It was the large polarity, dielectric constant and surface tension of the solvents that offered Ti 3 C 2 T x with good dispersibility and high oxidation degree during the solvothermal process. More importantly, the solvothermal treatment of Ti 3 C 2 T x in DMSO could promote the formation of TiO 2 nanoparticles with obviously higher crystallinity and more surface oxygen vacancies than those in EG, EtOH and ISO. Therefore, the photocatalytic NO oxidation efficiency of the samples within 30-min irradiation showed a descending order of TT-DMSO (46.9%), TT-Water (42.2%), TT-EG (32.3%), TT-EtOH (26.7%), and TT-ISO (19.9%). This work highlighted the significance of oxidation environment for Ti 3 C 2 T x , which could bring about some new but necessary consideration on the processing technique of MXene families for their future practical applications.

Experiments were conducted to simultaneously remove NO and SO2 from simulated exhaust gas by cyclic scrubbing and online supplementing pH-buffered NaClO2 solutions in a bench-scale reactor. The effects of key operating parameters on pollutant removal performance had been investigated. The results suggested that an extremely high oxidant utilization rate could be obtained when the oxidant supplementing molar rate approached the oxidant consumption molar rate. Though co-existing SO2 in flue gas would consume a certain amount of the oxidant during the absorption process, the intermediate products of SO32– ions generated from SO2 hydrolysis might be in favor of NO2 absorption to some extent. The introduction of ethanol in scrubbing solution could enhance NOx removal performance largely, which was possibly because of its inhibition effect on SO32– oxidation. The reaction mechanism and reaction products in scrubbing solutions were also discussed roughly through theoretical calculations and ion chromatography analysis.

The accumulation of nanoparticles in tumors by the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect is effective and well known. However, how to maximize accumulation is still a bottleneck in the development of nanomedicine. Herein, a tumor vascular-targeted hybrid polymeric micelle, which has a great capacity to selectively augment the EPR effect of nanoparticles by dilating tumor blood vessels via the activity of nitric oxide (NO), is presented. Under neutral conditions, the micelle is stable, with a long blood circulation half-life due to the carboxylated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) layer; in mildly acidic tumor tissues, the micelle can selectively target the tumor blood vessels by the exposed cyclic Arg-Gly-Asp peptide (cRGD) peptides, which is realized with a pH-dependent hydrolysis of the monomethoxy PEG layer. Simultaneously, exposed copper ions catalyze the decomposition of endogenous NO donors, which generates NO in situ, leading to vasodilation and increased tumor vascular permeability. As a result, the accumulation of nanoparticles is significantly enhanced, and a high accumulation of doxorubicin in tumors is achieved at 48 h after injection. This high dose of therapeutic agent produces a large inhibition of tumor growth (94%) in cancer treatment, and shows no general toxicity, with 100% of the mice surviving the treatment regimen.
