Metal hydroxide serving as a promising electrode material for the supercapacitors, has attracted considerable interests in the area of energy storage. However, the low cycling stability and electrical conductivity restrict its further application. Here, a kind of hollow-cubic Ni(OH) 2 /CuS 2 with excellent electrochemical performance has been prepared via a facile one-step sacrificial template method. The obtained Ni(OH) 2 /CuS 2 shows an outstanding specific capacitance of 1174 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 with 73.9% retention after 2000 charge–discharge cycles. Furthermore, the assembled asymmetric supercapacitors based on hollow-cubic Ni(OH) 2 /CuS 2 nanocomposite and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) exhibits a high specific energy density of 27.8 Wh kg −1 at the power density of 390 W kg −1 .

With the wide use of rare earth nanomaterials in industry, environmental control, and medicine with their unique properties, it has focused on the exposure of humans to the rare earth nanoparticles in recent years. Because of the similar properties of rare earth and calcium, rare earth nanoparticles can deposit in the bone and affect the osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). La(OH) 3 nanoparticles are widely used in the catalysis, sensor, electrode, and luminescent materials. However, there are few reports about the bioactivity of La(OH) 3 nanoparticles on the bone metabolism. In this work, three La(OH) 3 nanorods have been got by hydrothermal method, Long-, Medium-, and Short-La(OH) 3 nanorods, the lengths of which were of ~ 640, 255, and 80 nm, and the diameters of which were of ~ 85, 40, and 35 nm, respectively. All the La(OH) 3 nanorods showed no effect on BMSCs viability and the blood compatibility. But the osteogenic differentiation showed a significant difference in La(OH) 3 nanorods, in which Short-La(OH) 3 nanorods showed the highest promoting effect on osteogenic differentiation. The potential mechanism in the osteogenic differentiation caused by three La(OH) 3 nanorods was correlated with the different uptake efficiency in BMSCs and degradation in lysosome to form LaPO 4 . This work on La(OH) 3 nanorods provides the basic data for the development of lanthanum-based nanoparticles. Graphical abstract

For the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media, there is an urgent need to optimize the adsorption strength of OH*. Here, a flower-like hybrid of Cr-doped FeOOH/Ni(OH)2 was used as an OER catalyst with a low overpotential of 291 mV at 50 mA cm−2. The results showed that faster charge transfer was achieved at the electrode/solution interface during the OER process after the FeOOH/Ni(OH)2 was modified by Cr, which facilitates the rate-determining step of the Volmer reaction. Furthermore, the results of faradaic efficiency and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements confirmed that the synergistic effect between the ternary metal and oxygen vacancies led to excellent OER performance. This work provides a new strategy for the preparation of high-efficiency and low-cost oxygen evolution electrocatalysts.

Techniques for reutilization of the discarded bischofite are limited while efficient recovery of the Mg(OH) 2 nanoparticles from water during the synthesis and reuse processes is a challenge. In this study, the Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 core-shell magnetic nanoparticles were firstly prepared from discarded bischofite and used as catalyst for improving the ozonation of metronidazole (MNZ). The removal rate constant of MNZ increased by 694.7% using Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 . Compared with the Mg(OH) 2 control, the MNZ removal rate constant of Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 treatment was almost tripled. The persistent high catalytic activity of the Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 catalyst was observed since the MNZ removal rate constant decreased by just 13.2% in the third reuse run. The Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 primarily enhanced ozone decomposition through producing hydroxyl radicals . The MNZ removal rate constant increased from 0.075 min −1 to 0.643 min −1 as catalyst dose increased from 0 to 0.6 g L −1 while it decreased by 96.0% when its initial concentration increased from 10 to 200 mg L −1 . The maximum removal rate constant was observed at 25 °C when temperature increased from 15 °C to 35 °C. The Cl − , HCO 3 − , SO 4 2− , Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ ions could jeopardize MNZ degradation. The antibacterial activity of MNZ was eliminated after catalytic ozonation while the mineralization efficiency was almost doubled. The nitro group reduction and the cleavage of hydroxyethyl bond were two main transformation pathways of MNZ. These findings suggest that Fe 3 O 4 @Mg(OH) 2 nanoparticle made from discarded bischofite is the promising catalyst for the ozonation of antibiotics in the terms of water purification practice and reutilization of the bischofite.

Water oxidation plays a pivotal role in energy conversion and storage such as in water splitting and metal-air batteries. The development of a highly active and stable electrode for water oxidation at a low price is greatly challenging. Here, we report a self-supported oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrode with a 3D porous Ni foam (NF) as a core and a dense layer of amorphous phosphorus-doped Ni hydroxide (Ni–OH/P) film as a shell. This facilely fabricated 3D core–shell structured electrode with directly grown active materials offered improved activity and prolonged stability for OER. It required an overpotential of 490 mV to deliver a current density of 100 mA cm−2; it showed a small Tafel slope at 87 mV dec−1 and sustained elongated electrolysis at 100 mA cm−2 for 100 h. The NiOOH shell was in situ formed on the surface of the Ni–OH/P film. Then, a new core–shell structured film was constructed. The synergetic effects of the newly formed crystalline NiOOH shell and amorphous Ni–OH/P core contributed to high stability under harsh conditions. This work presents a facile and easy scale-up path to develop self-supported hybrid electrodes for efficient and stable energy conversion and storage.

In the recent years, sulfite-induced oxidation of various contaminants using oxysulfur radicals (SO 4 − , SO 5 − and SO 3 − ) has been explored to establish novel advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Although transition metals, such as cupric ions (Cu(II)), have been demonstrated to be capable of activating sulfite (S(IV)), the catalytic mechanism of the specific Cu(II) species is still not very clear. In this work, N-acetyl- para -aminophenol (APAP) was used as a basic substrate to investigate the process, mechanism and stability of the Cu(II)-S(IV) system with low dosages of Cu(II) (0.010 mmol L −1 ) in an alkaline solution (pH 10). The results show that 0.010 mmol L −1 Cu(II) can efficiently activate S(IV) for the oxidation of APAP and other contaminants (e.g., metoprolol, sulfanilamide, aniline, 4-chloroaniline, N,N-dimethylaniline, p -nitrophenol and 3-nitrophenol). Simulation calculations for the distribution of the Cu(II) species and pH-dependence of APAP oxidation in the Cu(II)-S(IV) system showed that Cu(OH) 2 particles are the major active species in the catalysis of S(IV). The surface complexation of S(IV) with the Cu(OH) 2 particles prior to the production of oxysulfur radicals is the basic mechanism of the alkaline Cu(II)-S(IV) system. Radical inhibition with scavengers (ethanol, tert-butyl alcohol or aniline) demonstrates that SO 5 − , SO 4 − and hydroxyl radicals (HO ) are responsible for the contaminant oxidation. Moreover, SO 5 − is believed to be the main active species in the Cu(II)-S(IV) system, which has a second-order rate constant of 2.98 × 10 8 M −1 s −1 with APAP. This work renews our recognition of the Cu(II)-S(IV) system applications and further understanding of the catalytic role of the nascent Cu(OH) 2 particles in the activation of S(IV).

Increasing the energy density, power density as well as widening the operation voltage are essential to electrochemical capacitors to meet the practical energy demands. Herein, a novel flexible quasi-solid-state dual-ion asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) with Ni(OH) 2 and Nb 2 O 5 nanosheets directly grown on stainless steel mesh is developed. In the dual-ion ASC, Nb 2 O 5 negative and Ni(OH) 2 positive electrodes react with Li + and OH − respectively in alkaline gel electrolyte to store energy, which is quite different from conventional alkali metal ion SCs and alkaline SCs. The as-assembled flexible device has an extended working voltage of 1.7 V and delivers a capacity of 5.37 mAh cm −2 , a maximum energy density and power density of 0.52 mWh cm −3 and 170 mW cm −3 , respectively. The device maintains around 60% capacity retention after long cycling up to 1000 cycles. Moreover, our device can light up a LED light efficiently upon fast charging. The proposed quasi-solid-state dual-ion ASC has potential applications in future portable electronics and flexible energy storage devices.

The In 2.77 S 4 microspheres had been firstly fabricated by using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the morphological modifier and then used to hybridize with In(OH) 3 nanocubes by a simply depositional method. The structure, optical properties, morphology, chemical compositions, and charge carrier behaviors of the as-prepared In 2.77 S 4 /In(OH) 3 composites were characterized, respectively. The methyl orange, tetracycline, rhodamine B, and Cr(VI) dilute solution were selected to evaluate their photocatalytic activities. Experimental results showed that In(OH) 3 nanocubes could improve the photocatalytic activity and recyclability of the In 2.77 S 4 microspheres under the visible light irradiation. With the usage of In(OH) 3 increased, the photocatalytic efficiency of the hybrids was firstly increased and then decreased. When the mass ratios of In 2.77 S 4 to In(OH) 3 were 6:2, it reached the maximum of 100% in 15 min for methyl orange, obviously higher than 67.4% of In 2.77 S 4 and 1.1% of In(OH) 3 . Meanwhile, it could also oxidize 85.6% of tetracycline in 20 min, 97.8% of rhodamine B in 7.5 min, and reduce 92.9% of Cr(VI) in 30 min under the visible light irradiation. Moreover, it could still degrade 91.7% of methyl orange solution after 3 cycles, which was much higher than 40.7% of In 2.77 S 4 microspheres. In addition, the possible mechanism of enhancing photocatalytic properties was proposed.

Herein, a facile sol–gel strategy for building the ordered interpenetrating network of Ni(OH) 2 and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was proposed. In this strategy, rGO nanosheets were homogeneously fixed inside composite utilizing the pores of Ni(OH) 2 gel as template, forming rGO-interpenetrated gel network. It was found that the rGO nanosheets could effectively reduce the internal resistant of composites and provide mechanical support for the gel network of Ni(OH) 2 . Therefore, the composite presented high electrochemical performance, especially high-rate performance, due to the interpenetrating of rGO nanosheets plus the supplementary role of acetylene black. It had high specific capacitance of 2163 F g −1 at low current density of 2.9 A g −1 and 733 F g −1 at high current density of 86.8 A g −1 .

A novel magnetic bioadsorbent beads composed of Fe 3 O 4 , chitosan, and Al(OH) 3 (Fe 3 O 4 /CS/Al(OH) 3 ) was synthesized by a modified solvothermal and in-situ reaction. The composite adsorbent was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer, respectively. Adsorption toward F − onto Fe 3 O 4 /CS/Al(OH) 3 was investigated as a function of Fe 3 O 4 concentration, initial solution pH, adsorbent dosage, initial fluorion concentration, co-existing ions in water and initial temperature. The addition of Fe 3 O 4 could enhance the adsorption properties of CS/Al(OH) 3 . The saturated adsorption capacity of magnetic Fe 3 O 4 /CS/Al(OH) 3 calculated from the Langmuir isotherm model was 76.63 mg/g at 298 K. The adsorption isotherm of F − followed Langmuir isotherm model and the adsorption kinetics fitted better to the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The influence of temperature confirmed that the adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic. The magnetic Fe 3 O 4 /CS/Al(OH) 3 beads could be easily separated from water under a low magnetic field.
