Due to the non-degradable of heavy metal, adsorption has been extensively applied to abatement it. Most studies were focused on uptake metal ions via electrostatic attraction and ion exchange, and load molecule H 3 AsO 4 from strongly acidic wastewater was still challenging. To solve the problem, bimetallic La–Zr MOFs was facilely fabricated in this work, and the fcu topology structure of La-Zr MOFs was remained well under the investigate crystallization time and crystallization temperature. However, the crystallinity of the obtained La-Zr MOFs was influenced by the synthesized factors. The obtained La–Zr MOFs was employed as adsorbent to removal Cr(VI) and As(V), and the performance was evaluated by the batch experiment. The result indicated that the adsorption performance of Cr(VI) and As(V) was positively correlated with the crystallinity , and the optimal sample was 1LaUN 12 . From the XPS characterization, it was found that H 3 AsO 4 was successfully uptake over 1LaUN 12 surface, and the maximum monolayer adsorption capacity was 83.40 mgH 3 AsO 4 /g via ligand exchange and coordination reactions with La−OH and Zr−OH. In addition, the sample 1LaUN 12 also exhibited the excellent Cr(VI) load performance, and the maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) was 222.5 mg/g. Above 40% Cr(VI) was reduced to Cr(III) by amino groups, and immobilized over the surface of 1LaUN 12 . Eventually, 1LaUN 12 displayed a good structural stability in the acidic medium, which was in favor of removing Cr(VI) and As(V) efficiently from strongly acidic solutions.

Ca 3 MZnGe 3 O 12 ( M = Zr, Sn) ceramics crystallized in a cubic garnet structure (A 3 B 2 C 3 O 12 ) with a space group of Ia- 3 d , and promising microwave dielectric properties with low coefficients of thermal expansion ( α L ) were obtained, namely, ε r = 10.5 and 9.3, Q × f = 79,700, and 96,040 GHz, τ f = − 36.1 and − 61.5 ppm/°C, and α L = 4.3 and 4.7 ppm/°C for Ca 3 ZrZnGe 3 O 12 and Ca 3 SnZnGe 3 O 12 , respectively. Bond valence calculation reveals that Ca 3 SnZnGe 3 O 12 exhibits a slight “compressed” effect at A-site and B-site with a slightly negative deviation (Δ ε r ~ − 1.01%) of the porosity corrected ε r (corr) from theoretical ε r (C–M) calculated by the C–M equation, while Ca 3 ZrZnGe 3 O 12 shows a “rattling” effect at the A-site and C-site with a large positive Δ ε r ~ 15.8%, leading to a high ε r , a more close to zero τ f and a lower Q × f value as compared to those of Ca 3 SnZnGe 3 O 12 . The relationship between structure and their intrinsic microwave dielectric properties was investigated by complex chemical bond theory and far-infrared reflectivity spectra.

Rapid and quantitative detection of nitrobenzene (NB) in wastewater is of great significance to protect the natural environment and human health. In this work, bifunctional Ln@Zr-MOFs based on UiO-66 were successfully fabricated by partially replacing terephthalic acid (H2BDC) ligands with m-phthalic acid (m-H2BDC) ligands and post-synthetic modification (PSM) with Ln3+ (Ln3+ = Eu3+, Tb3+). The “antenna effect” of the m-H2BDC ligands makes Ln@Zr-MOFs exhibit the characteristic emissions of Ln3+. By adjusting the amount and type of Ln3+, controllable color-tuning emissions can be easily realized, which endows them with a great application prospect for white LEDs. On the other hand, Eu10@Zr-MOFs can serve as a turn-off fluorescent switch of NB because the red emission from Eu3+ can be easily quenched by NB through a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process between NB and its ligands, and as a result, NB is successfully recognized. Particularly, Eu10@Zr-MOFs as a fluorescent probe have shown many appealing properties, such as high sensitivity (limit of detection is 1.04 μM, limit of quantification is 3.48 μM, and Ksv = 24459.71 M−1), quick response (less than 60 s), a broad response window (0–180 μM), excellent selectivity, and strong anti-interference ability. The real detection results of NB concentration in natural water samples have demonstrated that the reported Eu10@Zr-MOFs are a potential fluorescent material that can precisely and sensitively perform fluorescence sensing of NB.

A novel core–shell CaO based adsorbent with Al-Zr co-modification was synthesized via a facile one-pot calcination method. The CO 2 capture capacity and long-term stability of the adsorbents with different Ca/Al/Zr molar ratios were investigated. The co-doping strategy significantly enhanced the CO 2 capture capacity of the calcium-based adsorbents. Specifically, the optimized Ca24Al1Zr0.3 adsorbent exhibited excellent CO 2 adsorption performance in long-term adsorption–desorption cycles, with the CO 2 capacity of 0.53 g-CO 2 /g-ads after 40 cycles. The synergistic effects of Al-Zr co-doping were analyzed from a microstructural perspective. The core–shell Ca24Al1Zr0.3 adsorbent with a CaZrO 3 outer shell featured minimized particle size, abundant mesoporous and macroporous structures, and uniformly distributed doping components. Under the combined effects of structural modification and metal doping, it manifested enhanced CO 2 capture capacity. Based on the CO 2 adsorption mechanism of CaO, this study revealed that Al-Zr co-doping promotes oxygen vacancy generation and improves CO 2 adsorption performance. The Ca24Al1Zr0.3 adsorbent demonstrated the highest oxygen vacancy content and the most pronounced positive shift in Ca 2p binding energy. This shift enhanced electron-donating capability of calcium, effectively facilitating O 2− migration and CO 2 diffusion. Furthermore, the Ca24Al1Zr0.3 adsorbent exhibited superior carbonation reaction kinetics during long-term cyclic operation.

Developing efficient and stable solid functional materials for the catalytic upgrading of biomass-based platform furanic molecules is of great significance to produce value-added chemicals and biofuels. We herein report β-zeolite (β)/biobased carbon hybrids supported Zr species towards the cascade conversion of furfural into γ-valerolactone (GVL) with high activity and favorable stability. The role and importance of carbon modifier were highlighted. The cellulose (CEL) modified Zr/β-CEL catalyst was found to be uniquely effective, leading to an increase of GVL yield from 49.3% to 81.1%. Catalyst characterizations revealed that the structural integrity of β was largely preserved using CEL as the carbon modifier, accompanied by the increased mesopore volume and pore size for better accessibility of active sites and diffusion of reactants. Simultaneously, the presence of CEL offered an appropriate ratio of Lewis and Brønsted acid sites due to the well incorporation and dispersion of Zr species, which ensured the successive transfer hydrogenation and ring-opening reactions. Kinetic studies demonstrated the positive effect of CEL modification on reducing the apparent activation energy and thereby facilitating the GVL formation. More importantly, Zr/β-CEL with enhanced structural stability also exhibited markedly higher recyclability compared with the pristine Zr/β. The understanding on the roles of carbon modifier can be employed to optimize the physicochemical properties of zeolite-based catalysts for roundly improving the catalytic reactivity of biomass-related compounds.

A series of Zr-TiO2catalysts were prepared using a facile sol-gel method and were used for N-methylmorpholine (NMM) oxidation to N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO). The structure features of Zr-TiO2catalysts were studied in detail through a variety of characterization methods, such as XRD, SEM, N2adsorption-desorption isotherms, XPS, EPR, and O2-TPD. As-obtained 5%Zr-TiO2catalysts had superior catalytic performance and stability with a 97.6% NMMO yield at 40 °C, which related to Zr doping, a higher surface area, more oxygen vacancies, and oxygen chemisorption on the catalytic surface. This work provides an efficient preparation strategy of TiO2-based catalysts for selective oxidation reactions by a facile method.

Patulin (PAT) is a mycotoxin with immunotoxicity, genotoxicity, and neurotoxicity, so effective methods are needed for its detection. Fluorescence aptasensors provide a homogeneous detection method, but their sensitivity needs to be further improved. Herein, we developed a fluorescence aptasensor based on a target-oligonucleotide-driven DNAzyme motor and defective Zr-TCPE for PAT detection. The defective Zr-TCPE achieved an enhanced fluorescence intensity (increased by ∼1.9-fold) via defect engineering. The target-oligonucleotide-driven DNAzyme motor achieved effective PAT transduction, with a signal background ratio 4.4-fold that of the competitive transduction strategy. By combining defective Zr-TCPE with a target-oligonucleotide-driven DNAzyme motor, we achieved ultrasensitive detection of PAT with a detection limit as low as 9.38 fg/mL. In addition, the proposed fluorescence aptasensor could be used for the detection of PAT in apple juice, with recoveries ranging from 95.93% to 105.71%. This fluorescence aptasensor provides reasonable guidance for trace detection of hazardous substances in food and the environment.

In recent years, the ultrasonic removal of organic pollutants has attracted a great deal of attention. In this study, a novel MOF-based sonocatalyst with bimetallic center was formed by doping Zr atoms into the MX@MIL-125(Ti), aiming to improve the ultrasonic removal performance of organic pollutants. The successfully prepared MX@MIL-125(Ti/Zr) showed a porous structure with abundant grooves and channels (average pore size of 21.8 nm, and specific surface area of 36.910 m 2 /g), and significantly had a higher quantum yield (13.24 %) than MIL-125(Ti) and MX@MIL-125(Ti), thereby producing more OH and O 2 − free radicals under ultrasonic irradiation. The experimental results showed that the MX@MIL-125(Ti/Zr) had good sonocatalytic activity and could effectively deal with small-molecule dyes and macro-molecule microplastics under ultrasonic conditions, where the removal efficiency achieved approximately 95 % for Rhodamine B (within 12 min) and approximately 90 % for micro-polyethylene (within 4 h in the presence of persulfate). In addition, a possible degradation-dominant mechanism was proposed to explain the MX@MIL-125(Ti/Zr)-mediated sonocatalytic removal, where the existence of Zr atoms could help sono-excited electrons generate and transfer onto the conductive MXene, thereby facilitating more charge carriers to create reactive free radicals. Therefore, the study would provide a green and feasible approach for the industrial treatment of organic pollutants in water bodies.

A PTFE-based composite with surface-modified Zr₂O(PO₄)₂ (ZOP) filler was developed for high-frequency applications. • FAS-17 surface modification improves tZOP-PTFE compatibility and filler dispersion while reducing visible defects. • PTFE@tZOP-40 exhibits an ultralow dielectric loss (D f = 5.5 ×10 −4 at 10 GHz) and a reduced CTE of 51.6 × 10 −6 K −1 . With the increasing demand for advanced dielectric materials in high-frequency microwave and millimeter-wave systems, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has attracted considerable attention due to its low dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, and excellent electrical insulation. However, its high coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) may cause dimensional instability and reliability issues in high-frequency substrate applications. In this study, zirconium oxophosphate (Zr₂O(PO₄)₂, ZOP), an ultralow-CTE ceramic filler, was incorporated into the PTFE matrix to develop composites with reduced thermal expansion and favorable dielectric performance. To improve the compatibility between hydrophilic ZOP and hydrophobic PTFE, ZOP particles were surface-modified using a fluorinated silane coupling agent to obtain tZOP. The modified tZOP showed improved dispersion in the PTFE matrix and reduced visible defects, contributing to a denser composite microstructure and enhanced thermal dimensional stability. At a filler loading of 40 wt%, the PTFE@tZOP composite achieved a CTE of 51.6 × 10 −6 K −1 , a dielectric constant of 2.83, and a dielectric loss of 5.5 × 10 −4 at 10 GHz. This work demonstrates an effective surface-modification strategy for developing PTFE-based composites with low thermal expansion and favorable dielectric properties for next-generation high-frequency substrates.

Mg/Zr/Nb tri-doping jointly stabilizes Ni-rich layered cathodes under harsh operating conditions. • Tri-doping reduces Li + /Ni 2+ mixing and stabilizes the transition-metal layer and oxygen framework. • MZN-NCM delivers excellent cycling stability at room temperature, high temperature, and high cutoff voltage. • Mg/Zr/Nb co-doping improves charge transfer and Li + diffusion, enhancing the durability of Ni-rich cathodes. Ni-rich layered cathode materials (LiNi x M 1-x O 2 , x ≥ 0.8) offer high capacity and high energy density, but their cycling stability severely suffers from Li + /Ni 2+ cation mixing, H2-H3 phase-transition strain, interfacial side reactions, and sluggish Li + transport, especially under harsh conditions such as elevated temperature and high cutoff voltage. In this work, a Mg/Zr/Nb tri-doping strategy is proposed to construct Li(Ni 0.9 Co 0.05 Mn 0.05 ) 0.97 Zr 0.01 Mg 0.01 Nb 0.01 O 2 (MZN-NCM) cathode for synergistic stabilization under different operating conditions. The results show that Mg/Zr/Nb co-doping regulates the Ni valence distribution, reduces Li + /Ni 2+ cation mixing, enhances the stability of the transition-metal layer and oxygen framework, and suppresses interfacial side reactions and CEI degradation during cycling. MZN-NCM retains 90.1% of its capacity after 100 cycles at 25 °C and 89.8% at 60 °C, compared with only 59.8% and 41.7% for Pristine-NCM, respectively. Under a high cutoff voltage of 4.5 V, MZN-NCM also maintains a higher capacity retention of 87.7% after 100 cycles. Moreover, kinetic and interfacial chemical analyses indicate that multielement doping improves both charge-transfer behavior and Li + diffusion, enabling a synergistic enhancement of structural stability, interfacial stability, and ion transport. This work demonstrates that Mg/Zr/Nb synergistic doping is an effective material-design strategy for extending the applicable operating conditions of Ni-rich cathodes.

To lower the reaction temperature and enhance the waste incorporation rate of ZrSiO 4 , this study developed a novel low-temperature synthesis strategy. MgF 2 was used as a mineralizer to optimize the synthesis of ZrSiO 4 . Ceramics are successfully prepared by sintering at 1000 °C for 6 h. The role of MgF 2 in promoting the reaction is also investigated. At 1000 °C, MgF 2 reacts with SiO 2 to form amorphous Mg 2 SiO 4 . The Mg 2 + ions released in this process promote the phase transformation from m-ZrO 2 to t-ZrO 2 . The t-ZrO 2 then reacts with SiO 4 4- , thereby forming ZrSiO 4 . Under the same conditions, Nd x Zr (1-x) SiO 4 ceramic waste forms are synthesized for the immobilization of Nd 2 O 3 , which simulates high-level radioactive waste. XRD results show that a single-phase zircon structure is maintained when x ≤ 0.35. However, when x > 0.35, a small amount of Mg 2 SiO 4 is detected as a secondary phase. This indicates that some SiO 2 remains unreacted, and part of the Nd 2 O 3 is not incorporated into the crystal structure. Based on these findings, the sample with the maximum solid solution (x = 0.35) is selected and combined with lead-containing borosilicate glass to produce glass-ceramic waste forms. Leaching tests show that the normalized release rate of Nd 3+ gradually decreases as the glass content increases. With a glass content of 90 wt%, the material exhibits outstanding aqueous durability, as evidenced by a negligible Nd 3+ leaching rate of merely 1.57 × 10 −6 g·m −2 ·d −1 after 2 8 days. In conclusion, MgF 2 acts as an effective mineralizer, enabling a substantial reduction in both the synthesis temperature and duration required for ZrSiO 4 formation.

Surgical suture techniques are commonly used for hemostasis and wound closure, but they often fail to achieve optimal results, particularly in post-laceration hemostasis and healing. Furthermore, complications such as bacterial infections, oxidative stress, and inflammation often worsen the initial wound, leading to secondary damage. In this study, a novel tissue adhesive was developed by integrating a natural epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and zirconium ion (Zr) chelate complex (EGCG-Zr) into a gelatin/starch hydrogel (GDSH). The resulting multifunctional tissue adhesive (EGCG-Zr@GDSH) exhibits excellent injectability, superior adhesion strength compared with commercial protein fiber-based tissue adhesives, and cytocompatibility. The hydrogel enables the sustained release of EGCG and Zr, providing effective antibacterial effects. In vivo histological analysis of an incision wound model revealed that EGCG-Zr@GDSH promotes angiogenesis and collagen deposition, scavenges reactive oxygen species, restores intracellular redox balance, and mitigates oxidative stress-induced cellular damage. Moreover, it regulates M1 macrophage polarization, thereby reducing the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and alleviating inflammation. This hydrogel possesses antioxidant and immunomodulatory properties, indicating its application potential as a tissue adhesive and highlighting the importance of immune regulation in tissue repair and regeneration.
