Photocatalytic H 2 O 2 production suffers from severe charge recombination and sacrificial agent dependency. Hydrangea-like Co-doped CdIn 2 S 4 superstructures (Co/CIS (HD)) synthesized via hydrothermal method exhibit hierarchical porous architecture that enhances light harvesting and reactant diffusion. Atomic Co doping introduces mixed-valence Co 2+ /Co 3+ species, reducing the work function from 6.287 to 5.896 eV and extending carrier lifetime. The dual-valent system establishes a self-regenerative redox cycle where Co 3+ mediates photogenerated electron transfer for O 2 activation while Co 2+ scavenges holes to suppress recombination and photocorrosion. Without sacrificial agents, the optimized 6.5-Co/CIS (HD) achieves an exceptional H 2 O 2 production rate of 1952 μmol g −1 h −1 under visible light, 6.33 times higher than pristine CdIn 2 S 4 . The catalyst maintains structural stability over five cycles due to dynamic Co 2+ /Co 3+ regeneration. This work provides a strategic design for efficient photocatalytic H 2 O 2 synthesis via synergistic morphological and electronic engineering.

Polyamidoxime fibers have been widely studied for uranium extraction from seawater, but improving the amidoxime (AO) group utilization and increasing the selectivity toward uranium remain challenging. Herein, a hyperbranched macromolecular cross-linking strategy was employed to construct hyperbranched polyethylenimine (PEI) among the molecular chains of polyamidoxime nanofibers (PAN/PEI-AO nanofibers). This approach simultaneously suppressed chain entanglement and effectively reduced hydrogen bond formation between amidoxime groups, thereby significantly enhancing the utilization efficiency of AO groups. Moreover, the PEI structure also facilitated the dissociation of CO32– from uranyl tricarbonate ([UO2(CO3)3]4–) and comprised amino groups as assistant groups for enhanced uranium uptake. The above cross-linking effect by PEI was confirmed by experimental data and theoretical calculation, resulting in high uranium uptake (474.8 mg g–1) alongside good deep removal capability (kd = 7.7 × 105 mL g–1) from [UO2(CO3)3]4– solution. Moreover, PAN/PEI-AO nanofibers also exhibited good selectivity and reusability toward uranium and showed a uranium extraction capacity of 8.24 mg g–1 after 20 days’ testing from natural seawater. The obtained adsorption performance of PAN/PEI-AO nanofibers exceeded traditional polyamidoxime nanofibers and many reported uranium adsorbents. Overall, this work offers a strategy to improve the performance of polyamidoxime fibers, which possess the potential to extract real uranium species from natural seawater.

Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ /LuBO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanospheres have been synthesized by the soft chemistry route. This synthesis process does not require the addition of any organic solvents and surfactant. The whole process consists of homogeneous precipitation and hydrothermal process. First, uniform spherical Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanoparticles with the sizes of 70 nm were obtained by the classic urea-based homogeneous precipitation. Then, with the above Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanosphere as the precursor, the composites of Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ /LuBO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanospheres formed by the simple hydrothermal process. The phases, morphologies, as well as the luminescence properties of as-prepared samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence. Under a short wavelength excitation, the down-conversion Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ -doped LuBO 3 samples were investigated and explained.

Three new potassium rare earth carbonates, namely KRE(CO3)2 (RE = Eu, Gd, Tb), were synthesized successfully. Their structures feature a novel [RE(CO3)2]− 3D framework with 1D channels along the c axis filled with K+ cations. Among them, KEu(CO3)2 and KTb(CO3)2 emit strong red and green photoluminescence, respectively. The birefringence values of KRE(CO3)2 were measured as 0.149, 0.162 and 0.215 at 546 nm, respectively. Remarkably, KTb(CO3)2 has the largest experimental birefringence among carbonates reported.

Biomass materials as an abundant renewable resource could replace traditional fossil fuels and non-renewable materials, providing a new solution to achieve sustainable development. In this paper, Ce-modified Co(OH) 2 /Cu 2 O composite catalysts were prepared by an electrodeposition method, and the CoOOH/CuOOH dual active sites were successfully obtained through an electrochemical reconfiguration strategy, and the experimental results showed that the incorporation of Ce induced the formation of high-valent Co and Cu species, which improved the activity of electrocatalytic HMF oxidation. At 0.55 V vs Hg/HgO, the HMF conversion reached 100%, the FDCA yield was 95.04% and the Faraday efficiency was up to 98.47%. These results confirm the effectiveness of Ce-based non-precious metal catalysts in electrochemical reconstruction strategies and demonstrate their potential application in the high-value conversion of biomass derivatives. This finding not only provides a solid research basis for the development of highly efficient catalysts, but is also expected to promote the development of related technological fields.

Immobilizing metal-organic frameworks in macro-supports to form three-dimensional catalysts holds a great promise in environmental remediation, however quantitative structure/property-catalytic activity relationship remains unknown currently. In this work, we constructed Co 2 AlO 4 /CoAl 2 O 4 @Al 2 O 3 monoliths derived from ZIF-67@γ-Al 2 O 3 pellets and systematically investigated their surface chemistry-activity relationships in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for organic degradation. The activities of Co 2 AlO 4 /CoAl 2 O 4 @Al 2 O 3 catalysts were selectively correlated with their ratios of Co 3+ /Co 2+ and O Defect /O Lattice . The optimized Co 2 AlO 4 /CoAl 2 O 4 @Al 2 O 3 demonstrated an excellent catalytic efficacy toward PMS activation for metronidazole removal in a wide pH range (3.29–10.26) and OH was the dominant oxidant for metronidazole oxidation. The catalyst also exhibited desirable performance for eliminating other emerging contaminants and enduring catalytic activity and stability in PMS activation without regeneration. This study provides new prospects in rational design of robust, cost-effective and self-cleaning/repairing three-dimensional Co-based macroscale-catalysts with an outstanding and lasting catalytic activity for water purification.

Cobalt carbonate hydroxide possesses interesting capacitive properties due to the unique crystal structure. Herein, the hierarchical Co 3 O 4 @Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 dendritic structure was fabricated on carbon cloth with Co 3 O 4 nanoneedles as the inner core to enhance the conductivity. The loading efficiency of Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 nanowhiskers had improved obviously, and the nanowires provided more electrochemical sites to facilitate the superior electrochemical energy storage capacity of supercapacitor. The dendritic electrode with the core–shell structure had a high area-specific capacitance (1541 mF cm −2 at 1 mA cm −2 ), good rate capacitance (only 18.1% specific capacitance lost when the current density increased to 5 mA cm −2 ), as well as better electrochemical cycle stability (a capacitance retention of 72.1% after 5000 cycles at a high current density of 5 mA cm −2 ). The dendritic Co 3 O 4 @Co 2 (CO 3 )(OH) 2 and activated carbon as cathode and anode, respectively, were used to assemble an asymmetric supercapacitor, possessing the better area-specific capacitance of 87 mF cm −2 as well as well-deserved longevity retaining approximately 97.3% of initial capacitance even after 10,000 cycles at 1 mA cm −2 . The excellent properties stemmed from electro-active sites galore, strong adhesion between the core and shell, superior conductivity, as well as excellent ion transfer. The novel materials and feasible strategy are promising for next-generation hybrid supercapacitor with high performance.

A facile method is proposed for the synthesis of three-dimensional (3D) flower-like Co3−xFexO4 ferrite (CF) hollow spheres, using SiO2@FeOOH as precursor. The CF hollow spheres are efficient for the catalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) in the presence of H2O2 at 80 °C. The obtained CF hollow spheres were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy, and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm measurements. The formation of 3D hierarchical flower-like superstructure was influenced by the relative amount of urea used. As the mole ratio of CoCl2 and urea decreased, the structure of the products was tailored from yolk-like spheres to hollow spheres with different sized void interiors. Moreover, N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm analysis showed that the CF hollow spheres have a large specific surface area (163 m2 g−1) which provided more activity sites. The CF hollow spheres can catalyze the oxidation of MB efficiently. These results indicate that the designed CF hollow spheres exhibit promising capability for the degradation of dyes.

Adsorption of 2, 4, 6-trichlorophenol (TCP) onto the calcined Mg/Al-CO 3 layered double hydroxide (CLDH) was investigated. The prepared Mg/Al-CO 3 layered double hydroxide (LDH) and CLDH were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermo gravimetric analyzer-differential scanning calorimeters (TG-DSC). Moreover, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) was removed effectively (94.7% of removal percentage in 9 h) under the optimized experimental conditions. The adsorption kinetics data fitted the pseudo-second-order model well. The Freundlich, Langmuir, and Tempkin adsorption models were applied to the experimental equilibrium adsorption data at different temperatures of solution. The adsorption data fitted the Freundlieh adsorption isotherm with good values of the correlation coefficient. A mechanism of the adsorption process is proposed according to the intraparticle diffusion model, which indicates that the overall rate of adsorption can be described as three steps.

Bisphenol A (BPA), a well-recognized endocrine-disrupting chemical, is a significant environmental contaminant linked to various health disorders. Therefore, the development of rapid and sensitive BPA detection methods is essential for accurate monitoring in complex matrices. In this study, an electrochemical biosensor was constructed that synergistically combines the catalytic activity of laccase with the conductive properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Laccase was effectively immobilized within a Co 3 (PO 4 ) 2 -based hybrid nanoflower through biomimetic mineralization, forming a spatially confined catalytic system. Structural characterization of the nanoflowers revealed their spherical morphology with hierarchical porosity and an average diameter of 6 μm. The laccase@Co 3 (PO 4 ) 2 /MWCNTs nanocomposite-modified glassy carbon electrode demonstrated good catalytic performance for BPA oxidation, exhibiting high sensitivity (3.592 μA·μmol −1 L) and a low detection limit of 0.015 μM (S/N = 3)). Practical applications in analyzing commercial bottled water and plastic infant bottles confirmed the biosensor's reliability. This research presents an efficient and cost-effective approach for BPA risk assessment, contributing to the protection of public health.

AS a low-cost and high-performance catalyst, spinel cobalt oxide (Co3O4) has two different catalytic active sites (tetrahedral Co2+ and octahedral Co3+) to drive the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) through Co2+/Co3+ redox cycle. Tuning Co2+/Co3+ atomic ratio on the surface of Co3O4 for the construction of a synergy in the Co2+/Co3+ redox cycle might be an effective way to further boost PMS activation performance of Co3O4 catalyst. Herein, we suggested a metal-doping strategy to regulate Co2+/Co3+ atomic ratio of Co3O4 by partially substituting Co2+ with inert Mg2+ and formed a series of Mg doped Co3O4 (MCO) catalysts. Structural characterizations and experimental investigations demonstrated that Mg doping did not change Co3O4 host lattice and particle morphology, but could manipulate surface Co2+/Co3+ atomic ratio of Co3O4 for an improved PMS activation. The optimal MCO catalysts (MCO-0.2) with the suitable Co2+/Co3+ atomic ratios (1.13) exhibited the excellent thiacloprid (THIA) degradation performance through PMS activation, and the apparent degradation rate constant (0.2835 min−1) was highly outperformed that of pure Co3O4 (0.09555 min−1) and other similar cobalt-based catalysts. The optimal THIA degradation conditions might be: catalyst dose 100 mg L−1, PMS concentration 0.8 mM, pH 7 and THIA concentration 20 mg L−1. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterizations suggested SO4˙−, HO˙ and 1O2 were all involved in THIA degradation during the MCO-0.2/PMS process. Furthermore, the steady-state concentrations of these reactive species and their relative contributions to THIA degradation were also calculated by combining a kinetic model and a series of probe compound-based experiments. The results indicated that SO4˙− and HO˙ were generated at lower steady-state concentrations than that of 1O2, but they dominated THIA abatement during the MCO-0.2/PMS process. This study presented new insights into the construction of efficient PMS activator and a mechanistic understanding for PMS-mediated reaction.

Graphical This study investigates N -doped Co 3 O 4 /Pt catalysts synthesized using a Pt-decorated ZIF-67 sacrificial template, followed by a water-soaking treatment to enhance surface hydroxyl (-OH) group content. The interfacial N -stabilized Co 3+ -OH-Pt active sites in N -Co 3 O 4 /Pt improved synergy between cobalt and platinum, enhancing agglomeration resistance and enhancing catalytic performance. CO 2 hydrogenation is a promising method for converting CO 2 into valuable products. Cobalt-based catalysts are favored for their low cost and high activity, but they face challenges from sintering-induced deactivation. This study investigates N -doped Co 3 O 4 /Pt catalysts synthesized using a Pt-decorated ZIF-67 sacrificial template, followed by a water-soaking treatment to enhance surface hydroxyl (─OH) group content. The as-designed N -Co 3 O 4 /Pt catalyst achieved a CO 2 conversion of 64% and CH 4 selectivity of 98% at 340 °C under ambient pressure. It was demonstrated that the interfacial N -stabilized Co 3+ -OH-Pt active sites in N -Co 3 O 4 /Pt improved synergy between cobalt and platinum, enhancing agglomeration resistance and enhancing catalytic performance. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) demonstrated that CO 2 is converted to methane mainly through a formic acid pathway, with no CO detected. This work underscores the critical role of surface hydroxyl groups in promoting CO 2 adsorption and activation, guiding the CO 2 methanation reaction toward efficient methane production.
