A novel silver nanoparticle-modified magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotube composite (Ag-FMWCNTs) was synthesized by embedding Fe3O4 and assembling Ag nanoparticles in one-step. The properties of the Ag-FMWCNTs composites and magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes (FMWCNTs) were studied by scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The adsorption isotherms, adsorption kinetics and the effects of solution pH and ionic strength to adsorb emerging contaminant sulfamethoxazole (SMX) from aqueous solution on different multi-walled carbon nanotubes-based adsorbents were determined. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics could be explained well by means of the pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion models. The pH experiments showed that maximum adsorption occurred at pH 4. Additionally, all adsorbents had a strong adsorption ability to SMX and the Langmuir maximum capacity followed the order: 5% Ag-FMWCNTs (118.58 mg g−1) > 3% Ag-FMWCNTs (86.41 mg g−1) > MWCNTs (73.69 mg g−1) > 1% Ag-FMWCNTs (70.26 mg g−1) > FMWCNTs (45.13 mg g−1). The spent adsorbents were regenerated in methanol. It was also found that after regenerating four times, multi-walled carbon composites retained up to 80% of their original adsorption performance. Therefore, the Ag-FMWCNTs composite could be used as a potential adsorbent for removing sulfamethoxazole from water.

A study area in supercapacitor research is the design and manufacturing of composite electrode materials that combine the advantages of various materials. The rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 composite material is produced by growing cobalt ferrite particles on the surface of rGO using a simple and highly efficient thermal reduction technique. The results show that the electrochemical properties of rGO are significantly improved by the incorporation of cobalt ferrite. rGO sheets are used as supporting frameworks for the CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles, while the CoFe 2 O 4 particles provide more active sites for redox reactions. The prepared rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 show excellent electrochemical properties, with a high specific capacitance of 283 F/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g and a specific capacitance retention of 90.5% after 1000 cycles. The attractive performances exhibited by rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 composites make them potential electrode materials for supercapacitors in future.

The crystalline hexagonal Nb 2 O 5 (H-Nb 2 O 5 ) nanobelt clusters dominantly exposed (− 110) facet are firstly synthesized by a hydrothermal topological reaction with a precursor of fiber-like K 2 Nb 2 O 6 ·H 2 O. The structure and morphology of samples obtained at different temperatures and times are investigated. There are two steps in the synthesis process. One is the acid-exchanging reaction transforming into amorphous phase protonated niobate (HNO), and the other is dehydration reaction transforming into H-Nb 2 O 5 , and simultaneous dissolution reaction which forms nanobelt cluster morphology from the fiber-like particle. The formation mechanism of H-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt clusters has been proposed in detail. After photo-reduced reaction between the H-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt clusters and AgNO 3 solution, the dominantly exposed (− 110) facet of H-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt is homogeneously covered by Ag nanoparticles . The photo-electrochemical performance of the obtained H-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt clusters and Ag deposited H-Nb 2 O 5 (Ag-Nb 2 O 5 ) nanobelt clusters as photocatalysts are evaluated by splitting water under simulated sunlight illumination, and the generated photocurrent of Ag-Nb 2 O 5 sample is 10.73 μA, which is 535 times that of the H-Nb 2 O 5 sample. The results demonstrate that the Ag-Nb 2 O 5 nanobelt clusters have a high photo-electrochemical performance as well as good sunlight photoelectric conversion efficiency.

Protein-based nanocarriers with inherent biocompatibility have been widely served as building blocks to construct versatile therapeutic nanoplatforms. Herein, bovine serum albumin-iridium oxide nanoparticles (denoted BSA-IrO2 NPs) are successfully synthesized via one-step biomineralization approach. The BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibits uniform size (40 nm), superb biocompatibility and high drug loading capacity for doxorubicin (27.4 wt%). Under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, the as-prepared BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibited high photothermal conversion ability (54.3%) and good photostability. The in vitro drug release experiments displayed pH and NIR laser -triggered DOX release profiles, which could enhance the therapeutic anticancer effect. By utilizing this DOX loaded nanoplatform, effective synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy against human osteosarcoma can be realized, which has been systematically verified both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, in vivo pharmacokinetics studies showed that BSA-IrO2@DOX had prolonged blood circulation time due to the BSA component can improve the stealthiness of the nanoparticles during the blood circulation. Meanwhile, in vitro and in vivo toxicity studies demonstrated that the BSA-IrO2 NPs can act as biocompatible agents for drug delivery and cancer therapy. Therefore, this work presents a biomineralized iridium-based NPs with remarkable features and be used as a very potential therapeutic nanoplatform for cancer treatment.

The spherical silica particles in narrow size distribution with different diameters of 90 nm, 200 nm, 320 nm and 400 nm were prepared by the modified Stöber method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The phase composition of particles was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The results indicated that each of the silica particle samples was in amorphous state. The shear thickening fluids (STFs) comprising 53 vol.% of silica particles and 47 vol.% of polyethylene glycol with molecular weight of 200 g mol −1 (PEG200) were prepared and evaluated. The influence of size and size distribution on the critical shear rate and the intensity of shear thickening were analyzed. The STFs prepared by silica nanoparticles with a diameter of 90 nm showed the giant rheological effect with the critical shear rate of 2.51 s −1 , the largest viscosity of 45,500 Pa∙s and the yield stress of 181 kPa. The experiments and the analysis results demonstrated that the suspensions prepared by nanoparticles have high intensity of shear thickening.

Electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices that combine high-performance are essential to resolve the extreme shortage of non-renewable energy sources and environmental issues. Nickel oxide (NiO) is considered to be a promising EES cathode material because of its ultra-high theoretical specific capacitance, whereas the practical applications are greatly limited with poor rate and cycle performance. Herein, we report the yolk-shelled NiO/Ni composites (YS NiO/Ni) that exhibit good charge storage capability in the aqueous electrolyte with high specific capacitance (2207.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), exceptional rate capability, and ultra-high cycling stability (95.8% retention after 10,000 cycles). The superior property can be ascribed to the special yolk-shelled structure that exposes more redox reaction active sites, and the associate Ni nanoparticles with flower-like NiO which can improve electron transfer as current collectors.

Surface modification of nanomaterials with polymers is an effective route to render new functions and improve the performance of the final nanocomposites. Here, a facile method was developed to fabricate polyacrylic acid (PAA)-grafted monodisperse SiO 2 nanoparticles (SiO 2 -PDA-PAA) through a combination of mussel inspired chemistry and Michael addition reaction. To obtain the products, the SiO 2 nanoparticles were first coated with polydopamine (PDA) through self-polymerization of dopamine under rather mild conditions. The PDA thin films can then be further conjugated with amino-terminated PAA, which was synthesized by chain transfer free radical polymerization using cysteamine hydrochloride as a chain transfer agent and acrylic acid as a monomer. The SiO 2 -PDA-PAA nanocomposites were characterized via transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effects of contact time, solution pH, temperature and methylene blue (MB) concentration on the removal of MB were investigated. The results demonstrated that SiO 2 -PDA-PAA showed significant improvement in adsorption efficiency towards MB. The kinetics and isotherm studies showed that pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models were well fitted the experimental data. The values of thermodynamics parameters such as entropy change ( ΔS 0 ), enthalpy change ( ΔH 0 ) and Gibbs free energy ( ΔG 0 ) were calculated based on the Van’t Hoff equation. The negative values of thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of MB was a feasible, spontaneous and exothermic process. In summary, we developed a facile method to fabricate SiO 2 -based polymer nanocomposites, which showed obviously enhanced adsorption capability towards MB.

Pd-based nanostructures with stepped facets possess potential applications in many fields, particularly in catalysis. Generally, crystal growth often only allows the formation of nanostructures with energetically non-stepped facets, so it is desirable to develop methods that can be used to prepare Pd-based nanostructures bounded by stepped facets. Herein, penta-fold twinned (PFT) Au@Pd nanobipyramids (NBs) with stepped {100} facets were synthesized through growing Pd on Au decahedral nanoparticles (NPs) in polyol. During the growth of Au@Pd NBs, Br− was a critical factor, because it has appropriate affinity for the Pd atom and adjusted the growth rate ratio along 〈110〉 and 〈100〉, resulting in the formation of Au@Pd NBs with stepped {100} facets. The product shape and size could be tailored by controlling the reaction conditions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging and scanning transmission electron microscopy EDS (STEM-EDS) were used to investigate the structure and growth of the Au@Pd NBs. A growth mechanism involving two stages was elucidated. In the first stage, the growth of Pd clearly occurred along both 〈110〉 and 〈100〉. In the second stage, the growth along 〈110〉 was faster than that along 〈100〉. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that the as-prepared Au@Pd NBs had high catalytic activity, compared with Pd nanocubes and Pd–Au–Pd segmental nanorods.

Hydrogel-based wound dressings are ideal materials as they could provide a moist environment to promote wound healing. Silk sericin is a natural macromolecular protein produced by silkworms and has positive effects on fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Sodium alginate is a natural polysaccharide known as a mouldable matrix. To develop novel hydrogel wound dressings, sodium alginate was functionalized with silk sericin to yield an injectable and mouldable semi-interpenetrating network hydrogel (SA/Se) using calcium ions as the crosslinking agents. Meanwhile, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized in situ by the phenolic hydroxyl group of tyrosine in sericin to enhance the antibacterial activity of the hybrid hydrogel. UV–visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy demonstrated the successful synthesis of AgNPs with average size of 15.7 nm in SA/Se-Ag0.2. Field emission scanning electron microscopy showed the macroporous structure of the hydrogel. The hybrid hydrogel had a swelling ratio of 32 and more than 5% of retention ratio after 50 h. It exhibited effective antibacterial activity through irreversibly disrupting bacterial membrane structure to result in bacterial lysis and death. Cell counting kit-8 assay suggested the hybrid hydrogel was highly cytocompatible. The animal experiment showed the wound contraction ratio in SA/Se-Ag0.2 group was 99% after 12 days, indicating it can effectively promote wound healing. This novel hydrogel is promising for wound healing and tissue engineering.

In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were embedded into the hydrophilic poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibrous mats to achieve sustained release of water soluble drug from hydrophilic nanofibrous mats. MSNs were successfully prepared based on a sol–gel method. Water soluble drug naproxen sodium was then loaded into the mesopores of the MSNs, and different amounts of the drug-loaded MSNs were further incorporated into the fibers by the electrospinning process. Morphology of the nanofibrous mats was investigated, and it was found that all the fibers exhibited fibrous structure. Interestingly, lots of protrusions could be observed from the scanning electron microscopy images with high magnification, and numbers of the protrusions increased with the increasing of loading ratios of the MSNs from 5 to 15%. In addition, the wetting behaviors of the nanofibrous mats were also measured, and the water contact angles of all the mats were measured to be 0°. Finally, the drug release results indicated that all the PVA/MSNs composite nanofibrous mats showed an obviously prolonged drug release. The optimal loading ratio of the MSNs in the nanofibers was 10% due to the slowest drug release rate. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 47922.
