A novel melamine-based hyperbranched polyphosphonate acrylate (MHPA), successfully synthesized via the Michael addition polymerization of 2-(2-amino-ethylamino)-4,6-bisethylamino-1,3,5-triazine with tri(acryloyloxyethyl) phosphate, was blended with the epoxy acrylate (EA) to prepare UV-cured flame retardant coatings. The study of their flammability revealed that MHPA can improve the flame retardancy and the sample with 45 wt% MHPA (EA3) showed a good intumescent behavior when combusted. The results of their thermal degradation displayed that MHPA had a dual effect on the thermal stability of EA: leading to its earlier degradation catalyzed by acidic species from the relatively weak phosphorus-bearing parts, but improving the thermal stability of the char layer at high temperature due to the formed intumescent phosphorus–carbon compounds. Besides, the total release amount of gas products of EA3 was much lower than that of pure EA and various flammable gases like hydrocarbons and highly toxic CO were also reduced

We report on a method for the determination of the herbicide atrazine in tap water samples using melamine-modified gold nanoparticles (Mel-AuNPs). If a solution containing atrazine is added to a solution of such NPs, a color change occurs from wine-red to blue. This is due to a transition from monodisperse to aggregated Mel-AuNPs and caused by strong hydrogen bonding between atrazine and melamine. The color change can be monitored by a UV–vis spectrophotometer or with bare eyes. The ratio of the absorbances at 640 and 523 nm is linearly related to the logarithm of the atrazine concentration in the 0.165 to 16.5 μM range, and (with different slope) in the 16.5 μM to 330 μM range. The detection limit of atrazine is as low as 16.5 nM (S/N = 3). The method was successfully applied to the determination of atrazine in spiked tap water and gave recoveries that ranged from 72.5 % to 102.3 %.

Melamine-tainted products have been found in the market and raised issues about food safety. Recent studies done in rodents and humans demonstrated the toxicities of melamine, especially in causing kidney damage and bladder stone formation. However, very few studies assessed its behavior toxicity in organisms, including fish. Therefore, in this study, the researchers aim to determine whether sub-chronic exposure to melamine via oral and systematic administration could induce behavioral abnormality in zebrafish. After 14 days of systematic exposure to melamine at doses of 0.1 and 10 ppm levels, zebrafish were subjected to multiple behavioral assays. Results from both exposure routes showed that melamine indeed slightly increased fish locomotion and altered their exploratory behaviors in the novel tank assay. Furthermore, tightened shoaling formation was also displayed by the treated fish in the waterborne exposure group. However, melamine exposure did not cause any obvious alterations in fish behaviors during other behavioral tests. In addition, in comparison with previously published data on the behavior toxicities of several solvents in zebrafish, our phenomic analysis suggests the relatively low behavior toxicities of melamine via either systematic exposure or oral administration to zebrafish compared to those solvents. Nevertheless, our data indicate that the potential neurotoxicity of chronic low-dose melamine should not be ignored.

Gold-grafted melamine sponge (AuSp) was fabricated and applied as surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate for enzyme-linked immunoassay of 2 typical mycotoxins, zearalenone (ZEN) and T-2 toxin. The gold nanoparticles were in situ grown on the sponge, and the product showed good effect in enhancing Raman signal and good stability. COMSOL and Gaussian simulations were used to analyze the enhancing effect. Some of the experimental conditions that may affect the determination results were studied in order to meet the maximum response to mycotoxins. At optimized conditions, the limits of detection of the method were 1 μg·kg −1 and 0.05 μg·kg −1 for ZEN and T-2 toxin, with linear ranges of 5–100 μg·kg −1 and 0.1–20 μg·kg −1 , respectively, and relative standard deviations lower than 7.0%. The established method was used to determine ZEN and T-2 toxin in six kinds of cereal samples, the recoveries were 85–120%, and relative errors were less than 13.0%. These results indicated the accuracy of the established method. After 1-year storage, signal strength of AuSp for mycotoxins determination decreased by less than 10%, showing stability over a long time. Our work provided a new method for SERS determination of mycotoxins, which reduces the complexity of substrate preparation and the sample consumption compared with traditional methods, and thus has potential for on-line SERS determination.

Exploring an appropriate immobilization approach to enhance catalytic activity and reusability of cellulase is of great importance to reduce the price of enzymes and promote the industrialization of cellulose-derived biochemicals. In this study, Fe3O4magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were functionalized with meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid to introduce carboxyl groups on the surface (DMNPs). Then, melamine–glutaraldehyde dendrimer-like polymers were grafted on DMNPs to increase protein binding sites for the immobilization of processive endoglucanase EG5C-1. Moreover, this dendrimer-like structure was beneficial to protect the conformation of EG5C-1 and facilitate the interaction between substrate and active center. The loading capacity of the functionalized copolymers (MG-DMNPs) for EG5C-1 was about 195 mg/g, where more than 90% of the activity was recovered. Immobilized EG5C-1 exhibited improved thermal stability and increased tolerability over a broad pH range compared with the free one. Additionally, MG-DMNP/EG5C-1 biocomposite maintained approximately 80% of its initial hydrolysis productivity after five cycles of usage using filter paper as the substrate. Our results provided a promising approach for the functionalization of MNPs, enabling the immobilization of cellulases with a high loading capacity and excellent activity recovery.

The construction of hydrophobic porous adsorption materials, which are cost-effective, green, stable, and efficient, are urgently demanded for the large-scale and effective oily wastewater treatment. Herein, a facile and low-cost two-step fabrication strategy of hydrophobic melamine foam (MF) was demonstrated, including cellulose acetate (CA) decoration and siloxane modification. Cellulose acetate initially assembled on the skeleton of MF with the aid of hydrogen bond formation between the hydroxyl groups of CA and imimo groups of MF. At an optimal concentration of CA, the as-prepared composite foam (CA/MF) exhibited good hydrophobicity. To further improve the oil/water selectivity, the above foam was enhanced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS). The successful silicification reaction between CA/MF and MTMS decreased the surface energy and improved the surface topological structure, leading to excellent hydrophobicity (water contact angle of 147.4°) and superoliophilicty. Such hydrophobized cellulose acetate/melamine foam (H-CA/MF) presented low density, favorable porosity (97.78%), and distinguished pore volume (88.66 mL/g), leading to a high oil adsorption capacity of up to 56.6 g/g. Due to the excellent mechanical elasticity of H-CA/MF, the oil absorption and recovery can be achieved easily by a simple manual adsorption-squeezing method and lab-made pump-assisted separation device with satisfactory recyclability. Moreover, H-CA/MF displayed marvelous stability and environmental adaptability in different harsh environment, further enlarging its practical application scenarios. Along with the green and cost-effective preparation process, the present study provides a facile strategy to fabricate hydrophobized melamine-based foam, which is of great significance for scalable and efficient oil/water separation.

To improve the flame retardancy, mechanical and dielectric properties of epoxy resin (EP), promoting the application in aeronautic industry and other fields, molybdenum disulfide-melamine trimetaphosphate (MoS 2 -MAP) crystallite composites are synthesized. The chemical, crystalline structure and thermal stabilities of MoS 2 -MAPs are thoroughly characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques, respectively. The morphologies of EP/MoS 2 -MAP composites are assessed by SEM, thermal stability by TGA, fire retardancy by limiting oxygen index test (LOI), vertical burning standard test (UL-94), and cone calorimeter tests, mechanical properties by stress strain tests, and dielectric properties by impedance analyzer. Compared with pure EP, the mechanical, dielectrical properties, thermal stabilities and flame retardancy of EP/MoS 2 -MAP composites can be significantly improved due to the good dispersibility of MoS 2 and MAP in matrix. While, the properties of EP/MoS 2 -MAP composites can be further adjusted by controlling the mass raito of MoS 2 and MAP in MoS 2 -MAP crystallite. EP with 4 wt% of MoS 2 -MAP-50% (P content: 0.30%) shows the lowest dielectric constant and dielectric loss values on the basis of good flame retardancy and mechanical properties. The results show that the MoS 2 -MAP crystallite composites can promote the application of EP composites in aeronautical devices, radar detection and other fields.

The use of nano-catalysts to reduce nitroaromatic compounds is a promising wastewater treatment strategy. In this study, melamine foam (MF) is employed as the substrate, and sheet-like bismuth oxide iodide (BiOI) was grown on its surface through a cross-impregnation process involving Bi(NO3)3 and KI solution. As a catalyst, bismuth oxide iodide/melamine foam composite (BiOI/MF) exhibits remarkable catalytic activity and excellent durability in the treatment of continuous flow 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) solutions. The loading capacity of BiOI on a 2 × 2 × 2 cm3 MF substrate is notably low at just 0.13 g, yet it can completely reduce 50 mL 4-NP solution (0.37 mmol L−1) within 32 minutes. After six consecutive cycles, the catalyst maintained a conversion efficiency of over 90%, with the total treatment amount for 4-NP reaching 1.49 × 10−2 mmol. Furthermore, BiOI/MF also exhibited high catalytic reduction activity towards other organic pollutants, such as methylene blue and methyl orange solutions. In this study, we propose an efficient and cost-effective composite catalyst that offers technical guidance for the practical treatment of wastewater and sewage.

The issue of hazardous smoke and toxic gases released from epoxy resins (EP), which often causes casualties in real fires, has limited its application. Therefore, we have developed a novel flame retardant based on a bimetallic-doped phytate-melamine (BPM) structure with Zn2+and Fe2+ions incorporated into the polymer matrix using a straightforward solution-based synthetic method. The combustion performance of the composite was evaluated using a cone calorimeter test, which showed that the peak heat release, total heat release, and total smoke production were reduced by 50%, 31.7%, and 29.2%, respectively, compared to those of EP. Additionally, the fire growth index was noticeably reduced by 60% owing to the synergistic catalytic effect of the bimetallic ions, and the high nitrogen and phosphorus content of the additives. Overall, this study provides new insights into the application of bimetallic doping for flame retardant polymer composites.

Amine group-bearing small molecules tend to adsorb onto the nanochannel surfaces, which degrades the efficiency of nanochannel sensors. In this study, we utilized host-guest knowledge to eliminate the influence of excessive small molecules. In combination with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) provided an excellent sensing performance for the conical nanochannel coated with polyethyleneimine (PEI) and zirconium ion (Zr 4+ ). By taking detection of melamine as a prototype, the as-prepared nanochannel could selectively detect melamine-elicited double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Both excessive melamine and single-stranded DNA were removed via the addition of β-CD and SWNTs. The nanochannel sensing platform for the detection of melamine has a detection limit of as low as 4.3 nM with a suitable sensitivity, an excellent reproducibility and stability. Therefore, it is highly promising that a nanochannel sensor based on ion current rectification (ICR) can be used to detect other possible targets.

A facile one-step hydrothermal strategy to fabricate nitrogen-rich carbon dots (N-rich CDs) with melamine and citric acid as the precursors has been successfully developed. The as-prepared N-rich CDs exhibit a uniform quasi-spherical morphology, high N content of about 24 wt% and very strong photoluminescence (PL) with a high quantum yield of ∼42%. Additionally, the PL emission of these N-rich CDs can be stabilized in a wide pH range from 4.0 to 11.0. More importantly, the N-rich CDs can be utilized as the label-free PL sensors for the highly selective and sensitive detection of Fe3+ ions in aqueous solution with a very low detection limit of 142 nM.

The large-scale and controllable synthesis of novel N-doped three-dimensional (3D) carbon nanocage-decorated carbon skeleton sponges (Co-NCMS) is introduced. These Co-NCMS were highly active and durable non-noble metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). This hybrid electrocatalyst showed high ORR activity with a diffusion-limiting current of 5.237 mA·cm–2 in 0.1 M KOH solution through the highly efficient 4e– pathway, which was superior to that of the Pt/C catalyst (4.99 mA·cm–2), and the ORR Tafel slope is ca. 67.7 mV·dec–1 at a high potential region, close to that of Pt/C. Furthermore, Co-NCMS exhibited good ORR activity in acidic media with an onset potential comparable to that of the Pt/C catalyst. Most importantly, the prepared catalyst showed much higher stability and better methanol tolerance in both alkaline and acidic solutions. The power density obtained in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell was as high as 0.37 W·cm–2 at 0.19 V compared with 0.45 W·cm–2 at 0.56 V for the Pt/C catalyst. In Co-NCMS, the N-doped carbon nanocages facilitated the diffusion of the reactant, maximizing the exposure of active sites on the surface and protecting the active metallic core from oxidation. This made Co-NCMS one of the best non-noble metal catalysts and potentially offers an alternative approach for the efficient utilization of active transition metals in electrocatalyst applications.
