This study reports on the use of dispersed multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a novel pseudostationary phase in capillary electrophoresis for the separation and determination of mono- and divalent metal ions. The use of a background electrolyte containing 1 μg⋅mL −1 of dispersed MWCNTs results in good analytical linearity, in detection limits in the range from 18.5 to 124 ng⋅mL −1 , and in limits of quantifications in the range from 61 to 409 ng⋅mL −1 . The method was applied to the analysis of the ions K(I), Ba(II), Ca(II), Na(I), Mg(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Li(I) and Cd(II) in spiked honey, and mean recoveries were found to be between 80.0 and 106.7%.

Ternary amino-functionalized magnetic illite-smectite (AMNI/S) nanocomposites were prepared via integrating two-dimensional illite-smectite nanoflakes (NI/S), magnetite nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 ), and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). The results show that Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles can be well dispersed on NI/S flakes and the hydrolyzed APTES molecules can simultaneously bond to the hydroxyl groups of Fe 3 O 4 and NI/S. Due to the synergetic effect, magnetic NI/S composite can graft more amount of APTES molecules rather than Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles or NI/S alone. When the mass ratio of NI/S:Fe 3 O 4 is 1:1, the saturation magnetization of AMNI/S-1 is 17.4 emu/g, facilitating the efficient magnetic separation in aqueous solution. Also, AMNI/S-1 shows a maximal adsorption amount of Pb(II) ions of 227.8 mg/g calculated by the Langmuir model. The effects of initial concentration of Pb(II) ions, pH value, adsorption time, and temperature on the adsorption amount of Pb(II) ions were investigated. The adsorption kinetic models and isotherm models were applied to analyze the adsorption of Pb(II) ions, respectively. The thermodynamic analysis reveals that the adsorption of Pb(II) onto AMNI/S-1 is spontaneous and endothermic in nature. The mechanism for the adsorption of Pb(II) ions onto AMNI/S-1 is due to the surface complexation of Fe 3 O 4 and NI/S, and the chelation of amine groups (–NH 2 ). AMNI/S-1 can be efficiently reused and the regenerated AMNI/S-1 remains 82.91% of initial adsorption capacity after 6-cycle adsorption/desorption process. Thus, ternary AMNI/S-1 could be used as a prospective effective adsorbent.

The authors describe a colorimetric approach for on-site monitoring of histamine based on the use of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that have a negatively charged surface due to the presence of adsorbed citrate ions. Histamine has two basic functional groups, an aliphatic amino group and an imidazole ring. Under the experimental conditions, the protonated aliphatic amino group drives the imidazole ring into close proximity to the AuNPs due to electrostatic attraction. This accelerates the replacement of citrate ions by the imidazole ring because of the strong affinity between imidazole and AuNPs. As a consequence, the two groups synergistically induce the aggregation of the AuNPs and trigger a visible color change from red to blue. The minimum visually detectable histamine concentration is 1.81 μM, which is comparable to the limit of detection (LOD) of the electrochemical approaches at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3:1. When using absorbance at 522 nm, the LOD is lowered to 38 nM. The method was applied to the determination of histamine in fish samples.

Shuttle-like vanadium selenide was prepared via carbonizing the vanadium-based metal organic frameworks for supercapacitors. Its morphology and structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherm. Its electrochemical performance was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge test in three electrode configurations for supercapacitor. Compared with those in pure KOH electrolyte, the supercapacitive performances can be greatly enhanced when adding a certain amount of K 3 Fe(CN) 6 in KOH. A high specific capacitance of 512 F g −1 can be achieved at a scan rate of 0.2 mV −1 in 1 M KOH + 0.02 M K 3 Fe(CN) 6 , while only 164 F g −1 can be obtained in pure 1 KOH electrolyte. Furthermore, the VSe 2 also exhibits stable long-term cycling, 84.7% capacitance retention after 6500 cycles at a current density of 2 A g −1 . Those results provide a facile yet effective method for high performance energy storage devices.

The green extraction and separation of natural produce is a significant part in pharmaceutical industry which has received extensive attention. Comparing with the extraction of hydrophilic products, hydrophobic natural products are further challenging. An extraction means depended in high efficiency hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (HDES, TCP) was screened by designing ternary HDES. Utilizing the established method, the hydrophobic compound betulin was successfully extracted and recovered from Celtis sinensis leaves. The results showed that HDESs were further productive in extracting hydrophobic compounds than hydrophilic DES. The extractions of TPC were statistically optimized by response surface methodology and central composite design. Under the optimum conditions, the extraction rate of betulin was increased by 125.00% compared with the initial yield. At the same time, it was proved that among the six resins, D-101 macroporous resin had the highest recovery rate of 71.12% for betulin, which was the most effective enrichment and purification method. To sum up, HDES has obvious advantages in the extraction of hydrophobic natural products due to its mild extraction conditions, high yield, and environmental friendliness. At the same time, limitless feasibilities of HDES compositions and their associations furnish a plentiful selection space for the extraction about hydrophobic compounds.

The aggregation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) is implicated in the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and Aβ oligomers are considered the most toxic species. Therefore, the detection and clearance of Aβ oligomers are crucial for the theranostic strategies for AD. However, effective methods for the detection of Aβ oligomers are rare, and only few of the oligomer-specific sensors have therapeutic functions as well. Recent studies have demonstrated that the toxicity of Aβ oligomers is related to the number of exposed hydrophobic residues. In this study, an oligomer-specific fluorescent probe, which was based on the hydrophobic regions that are exposed on Aβ oligomer surfaces was designed and synthesized. For improving the ability to recognize Aβ oligomers, the in situ treatment of AD symptoms and the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, the probe and KLVFF peptide (an Aβ-target peptide) were modified on the surfaces of magnetic nanoparticles (MNP@NFP-pep). This complex could detect Aβ oligomers specifically, and achieve the wireless deep magnetothermally mediated disaggregation of Aβ aggregates with an alternating magnetic field. This work provides new insights into the development of a “sense and treat” system for AD therapy.

In order to improve the dielectric properties and the thermal conductivity of the PVDF-based composites, the BaTiO 3 @super-short MWCNT (BT@SSCNT) particles were modulated by a SSCNT shell fabricated by MWCNT with the different types (S-MWCNT-1020, S-MWCNT-2040). The average size of these particles is about 300 nm. With the increase in the external diameter of MWCNT, the SSCNT content of the BT@SSCNT particles decreases. However, the sum proportions of which the diameter of the particles is not less than 295 nm have a distinct growth leading to that the distance between the neighboring particles shortens. The dielectric constants of the composites are more than 355 and 1500 (10 3 Hz) at 10 wt% and 60 wt% filler loading, respectively. Compared with the BT@SSCNT/PVDF-1020 composites, the dielectric constants of the BT@SSCNT/PVDF-2040 composites have a more stable frequency dependency in the range of 10 2 to 10 6 Hz. The value of the composite with 10 wt% BT@SSCNT loading maintains more than 250 at 10 6 Hz. The introduction of the shell of SSCNT with larger external diameter can offer the composites a more desirable combined action of dielectric mechanisms, including interfacial polarization and micro-capacitor effect. In addition, the varying SSCNT shells also have evident influence on dielectric loss, breakdown strength, and thermal conductivity. It is worth mentioning that the values of the BT@SSCNT/PVDF-2040 composites are 334 and 0.16 (10 4 Hz), 229 kV mm −1 , and 1.13 W (m K) −1 at 10 wt% filler loading, respectively. This work could extend the strategies for building the core–shell particles to develop dielectric nanocomposites.

In the present study, a novel method has been carried out to grow tungsten (W) doped molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) on the graphene transferred TEM grid in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) setup. Tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ) has been used as a source for ‘W’ while ‘Mo’ has been derived from Mo based substrate. Different experimental parameters were used in this experiment. Higher gas flow rate decreases the size of the sample flake and on other side increases the dopant concentrations. The interaction mechanism between Mo, S, W and oxygen (O) have been explored. The influence of oxygen seems to be not avoidable completely which also imposes effective growth condition for the reaction of Mo with incoming sulfur atoms. The difference in the migration energies of Mo, WO 3 , S clusters on the graphene and the higher reactivity of Mo clusters over other possibly formed atomic clusters on the graphene leads to the growth of W doped MoS 2 monolayers. Formation of MoS 2 monolayer and the nature of edge doping of ‘W’ is explained well with the crystal model using underlying nucleation principles. We believe our result provide a special route to prepare W doped MoS 2 on graphene substrate in the future.

This study presents a performance comparison of Fe(II)-catalyzed sodium percarbonate (SPC), Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC, and of the innovative hydroxylamine hydrochloride (HA)-Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC for the degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water. TCE degradation was greater in the Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC system compared to the Fe(II)-catalyzed SPC system, indicating the effectiveness of adding EDDS as an enhancement factor for the removal of TCE. Moreover, TCE degradation was faster in the HA-Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC system compared to the Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC system, illustrating that HA can play a synergistic role in TCE degradation. Analysis of iron distribution in the three systems demonstrated that EDDS addition maintained iron in soluble form, and that the generation of soluble ferrous from ferric iron was expedited with addition of HA. Studies using nitrobenzene and carbon tetrachloride probes provided insights on the generation of hydroxyl radical (HO • ) and superoxide anion radical (O 2 •− ) in the three systems. A gradual increasing contribution of O 2 •− to TCE removal in Fe(II)-catalyzed SPC, Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC, and HA-Fe(II)-EDDS-catalyzed SPC systems was verified through free-radical scavenger tests. Finally, monitoring of Cl − concentrations manifested the complete dechlorination of TCE. A possible mechanism of TCE degradation involving two pathways of HO • oxidation and O 2 •− reaction was proposed.

Cost-effective electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) play a key role in the field of renewable energy. Although tremendous efforts have been devoted to the search of alternative materials, Pt/C is still the most efficient electrocatalyst for the HER. Nevertheless, decreasing the loading of Pt in the designed eletrocatalysts is of significance. However, with low Pt loading, it is challenging to maintain excellent catalytic performance. Herein, a new catalyst (Pt/NPC) was prepared by dispersing Pt nanoparticles (PtNPs) with an average diameter of 1.8 nm over a three-dimensional (3D) carbon network co-doped with N and P. Because of the high electronegativity of the N and P dopants, PtNPs were uniformly dispersed on the carbon network via high electronic affinity between Pt and carbon, affording a Pt/NPC catalyst; Pt/NPC exhibited superior HER activity, attributed to the down-shift of the Pt d-band caused by the donation of charge from N and P to Pt. The results show that Pt/NPC with an ultralow Pt loading of 1.82 wt.% exhibits excellent HER performance, which corresponds to a HER mass activity 20.6-fold greater than that observed for commercial 20% Pt/C at an overpotential of 20 mV vs. RHE.

The improvement of the photocatalytic performance of TiO 2 nanofibers (NFs), prepared by electrospinning, is achieved by surface modification with the rhodizonic acid (RhA). The condensation reaction between hydroxyl groups from TiO 2 NFs and RhA is accompanied by the red-shift of optical absorption due to interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation. Crystal structure, morphology, and optical properties of unmodified and surface-modified TiO 2 NFs were analyzed. The photocatalytic performance of prepared samples has been examined through degradation of organic dye methylene blue. Superior photocatalytic activity of surface-modified TiO 2 NFs with RhA is attributed to their enhanced optical properties, i.e., the ability to harvest the photon energy in the visible spectral range.

A flexible PEO-NaCF 3 SO 3 -MIL-53(Al) solid electrolyte is fabricated for all-solid-state sodium-sulfur batteries (ASSBs). When the mole ratio of EO (ethylene oxide of PEO):Na (sodium ion of NaCF 3 SO 3 ) is 20 and MIL-53(Al) is 3.24 wt%, high ionic conductivities of 6.87 × 10 −5 S cm −1 at 60 °C and 6.52 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at 100 °C are achieved. And the sodium ion transference number is significantly increased to 0.40 from 0.13 compared to the PEO-NaCF 3 SO 3 solid electrolyte without MIL-53(Al). When it is assembled to ASSBs, the batteries obtain high capacity retention and reversible current-rate capability. At 0.1 C and 60 °C, the solid-state battery delivers the first discharge capacity of 897.7 mAh g −1 and 674.9 mAh g −1 after 50 cycles with a coulombic efficiency near 100%. The enhanced electrochemical performances of the solid electrolyte, as well as ASSBs, are benefited from MIL-53(Al) filler.
