In this paper, Yb 3+ /Er 3+ co-doped hexagonal NaYF 4 have been successfully synthesized by solvothermal, thermal decomposition, hydrothermal and molten salt method, respectively. The crystal structures, particle morphologies, sizes and corresponding upconversion luminescent properties of β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ nano/microcrystals are systemically studied. It is interesting to observed that the temperature-dependent UC luminescent properties of β-NaYF 4 :20 %Yb 3+ , 2 %Er 3+ samples are strongly related to their synthesis methods. Comparison of the upconversion luminescence and thermal sensitivity between the β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ samples reveals that β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ sub-microplates synthesized by thermal decomposition method have much stronger green emission intensity, better luminescent thermal stability and higher temperature sensitivity. This findings are relevant to the application of β-NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ in optical temperature sensors and to the further understanding of the UC luminescent mechanism.

Abstract We prepared the catechol-functionalized nanosilica for adsorption of germanium (Ge) ions from aqueous media. The functionalized nanosilica was characterized by FTIR, TGA, TEM, BET, and XPS. The influence of pH, Ge initial concentration, and time of the adsorption process was investigated. Under the optimum condition, the maximum adsorption capacity of Ge ions was 0.048 mg m −2 at pH 4.5. The adsorption mechanism is the chelating interaction between hydroxyl and Ge(OH) 4 . The functionalized nanosilica was able to selectively adsorb Ge ions from tellurium(IV) and boron. Langmuir isotherm was found to better fit the experiment data rather than Freundlich isotherm. The kinetics of the adsorption process of Ge ions on the functionalized nanosilica was investigated using the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, and the results indicated that the pseudo-second order equation model provided the best correlation with the experimental results.

In this work, molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanosheets were employed to enhance the mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan (CS), which was one of the most promising biomaterials. In order to promote a homogeneous dispersion of MoS 2 and improved interface interactions between CS and fillers, carboxyl functionalization was subjected to the exfoliated MoS 2 nanosheets by chemical conjugation with thioglycolic acid before compositing with CS. Afterward, the CS/MoS 2 – g –COOH composite films were prepared by a simple solution blending method. Micromorphology characterizations showed that MoS 2 – g –COOH nanosheets dispersed much better than unmodified MoS 2 nanosheets, which was considered to be quite beneficial for the enhanced properties of CS nanocomposites. DMA results indicated that the mechanical properties of CS were improved by incorporating with MoS 2 – g –COOH nanosheets compared with neat CS and unmodified MoS 2 -filled CS. The thermal stability of CS/MoS 2 – g –COOH was also improved. This work demonstrated a promising route to prepare MoS 2 -based polymer nanocomposites with excellent performances.

Organic and inorganic phase change materials (PCMs) are considered potential materials for thermal energy storage (TES) with different phase change characteristics. In this study, a novel organic-inorganic composite phase change material (PCM) called disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate-lauric-palmitic acid (D-LA-PACM) was prepared. Expanded graphite (EG) was selected as the support material, and the novel organic-inorganic form-stable PCM called D-LA-PAPCM/EG was prepared using the vacuum adsorption method. Differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, leakage testing, melting and solidification cycle testing, thermal conductivity testing, scanning electron microscopy observation of the micromorphology, and other characterization methods were used to study the micro structure and morphology, thermal physical parameters, thermal conductivity, stability of the PCMs, and the comprehensive material properties of D-LA-PAPCM under the composite action of EG. Results indicated that the melting and freezing temperatures and latent heats of D-LA-PAPCM/EG were measured to be 31.6°C and 34.3°C and 142.9 and 142.8 J/g, respectively. Although some of the lauric-palmitic acid (LA-PA) and disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate (DHPD) separated in the multiple porous structures of EG after 1000 cycles, they could still absorb and release latent heats independently, with D-LA-PAPCM/EG still exhibiting good thermal stability. The thermal conductivity of D-LA-PAPCM/EG was 1.361 W/(mK). Therefore, the material and thermal properties of the prepared D-LA-PAPCM/EG indicate that it could be well used as a feasible material for energy-saving phase change floor units in indoor TES systems.

A novel composite double-layer film was developed using TiO 2 /La(OH) 3 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ nanoparticles (P25/UC) and porous-hollow TiO 2 microspheres (PHTS) for highly efficient dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). P25/UC was used as the first layer and coated onto fluorine-doped tin oxide glass substrate to create a good contact and upconversion effect. The P25/UC layer can absorb and convert infrared light into visible red and green light, increasing light utilization. PHTS has a large size and a high specific surface area, was deposited onto the surface of the P25/UC film to improve the light scattering performance and dye adsorption of solar cells. The P25/UC composite double-layer film (P25/UC + PHTS) achieved the highest short-circuit current density of 20.33 mA/cm 2 and photoelectron conversion efficiency of 8.89% due to the synergistic effect of the upconversion layers and light-scattering layers, which increased by 51.26% and 38.04% compared with that of the pure P25 film photoelectrode.

In the sewage treatment process, facilitating the conversion of pollutants into value-added resources holds great potential for reducing the amount of greenhouse gas emissions and promoting economic circulation. Cyanophycin granule polypeptide (CGP), a recently discovered high value-added biopolymer present in activated sludge, has provided new avenues for the recovery of resources. However, the mechanisms that regulate CGP synthesis and the characteristics of this biopolymer in activated sludge remain unclear thus far. This study investigated the synthesis of CGP, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), and alginate-like exopolysaccharides (ALE) in various microbial aggregates under different carbon sources feeding conditions. Our results showed that the CGP yields was superior that of PHA and ALE when subjected to identical carbon source feeding conditions. Furthermore, biofilm was more conducive to CGP accumulation than floc sludge. Compared with glucose and methanol, sodium acetate significantly enriched the CGP synthetase-encoding gene ( cphA abundance = ~17419), resulting in the highest CGP yield (average 107.1 mg/g MLSS) in both biofilm and floc sludge. This study is the first to reported the characteristic fluorescence of CGP (Ex/Em = ~360/450 nm) caused by the aggregated luminescence of arginine on the side chains. Overall, this study highlights the potential application of CGP as a fluorescent material and offers insights into CGP recovery from activated sludge in wastewater treatment plants.

Metal-organic framework/organosilica hybrid membranes on tubular ceramic substrates have shown great potential for the implementation of membrane technology in practical gas separation projects due to their higher permeance compared to commercial polymers. However, the selectivities of the reported membranes are moderate. Here, we have incorporated urea-modulated metal-organic frameworks into organosilica membranes to greatly enhance its separation performance. The urea-modulated metal-organic frameworks exhibit less-defined edges of crystallographic facets and high defect density. They can be well-dispersed in the organosilica layer, which substantially suppresses the interfacial defects between metal-organic frameworks and organosilica, which is beneficial for improving the selectivity of membranes for gas separation. The results have shown that the enhanced ideal selectivity of H 2 /CH 4 was 165 and that of CO 2 /CH 4 was 43, with H 2 permeance of about 1.25 × 10 −6 mol·m −2 ·s −1 ·Pa −1 and CO 2 permeance of 3.27 × 10 −7 mol·m −2 ·s −1 ·Pa −1 at 0.2 MPa and 25 °C. In conclusion, the high level of hybrid membranes can be used to separate H 2 (or CO 2 ) from the binary gas mixture H 2 /CH 4 (or CO 2 /CH 4 ), which is important for gas separation in practical applications. Moreover, the simple and feasible modulation of metal-organic framework is a promising strategy to tune different metal-organic frameworks for membranes according to the actual demands.

The solvent has an important impact on liquefaction conversion from biomass to efficiently obtain fuels and chemicals. In this paper, the catalytic liquefaction of woody biomass was studied using fir sawdust as raw material and concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst in GVL/1-octanol mixed solvent with mechanical stirring and oil bath heating. The influence of GVL on liquefaction yield was discussed, and the liquefaction productions were characterized by some analysis methods to analyze the liquefaction mechanism. The results show that adding GVL benefits to improving liquefaction yield and generating high value-added monophenol because of the enhancement of the surface wettability of biomass and the inhibition of polymerization of mononuclear aromatics with other degradation products. The maximum liquefaction yield of 76.07% was obtained under the suitable conditions of fir sawdust 10 g, temperature 150 ℃, reaction time 60 min, mass ratio of sawdust/solvent 1:6, catalyst concentration 0.6 mol·L −1 , and mass ratio of GVL/1-octanol 4:6. The mechanism study reveals that aromatics originated by lignin degradation as well as small molecule ketones from cellulose and hemicellulose degradation. GVL/1-octanol as an eco-friendly solvent system exhibits a promising prospect of application in woody biomass conversion. Graphical abstract

Abstract Adsorption is a promising technique for water treatment. Porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) have been witnessed as advanced adsorbents for various applications and PAFs with task-specific functionality and porosity are desirable adsorbents. Herein, a charged PAF, PAF-CH 2 N(CH 3 ) 3 I, was prepared through precursor-designed method. The charged PAF is densely and homogeneously functionalized with cationic groups and featured with hierarchical pore structure. The content of the charged groups in the framework reaches up to 52.27 wt% and the hierarchical structure facilitates fast adsorption/desorption of dye molecular. It demonstrates strong affinity, fast adsorption rate, high adsorption efficiency and high adsorption capacity towards not only small model anionic dye but also large-sized one, which can not be adsorbed efficiently by other microporous adsorbents. In addition, benefiting from the hierarchical structure, the charged PAF can be easily regenerated and reused with almost no loss of its efficiency even after 10 adsorption–desorption cycles. These excellent features demonstrate that the charged PAF is a promising adsorbent for wastewater treatment and this study provides a new perspective to explore functionalized PAFs as a versatile type of advanced adsorbents.

Sulfonamide antibiotics have highly toxic effects on humans and other organisms within the food chain. Adsorption by various carbonaceous materials is an effective method for removing them from the aqueous environment. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted between adsorbents and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) by studies of characterization, isotherm model, and kinetic model. The adsorption performances and mechanism of fifteen carbonaceous materials to remove SMX have been comprehensively evaluated. Results of the characterization showed that not only porosity, but also surface chemistry plays an important role in the adsorption process. Changes in the type and quantity of functional groups before and after adsorption are positive for the recyclability of carbonaceous materials. Moreover, kinetic studies showed that the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-kinetic model and the intra-particle diffusion model. Four adsorbents (i.e., W-GAC, 3M-GAC, GP, and PAC) in this study have the best performance in each corresponding category in terms of the adsorption of SMX. Therefore, the results provide an indispensable reference for evaluating the adsorption performances of a variety of carbonaceous materials, and thus can support the selection of adsorbents for different applications.

4-Hydroxy- d -phenylglycine was modified with methacrylic anhydride and then immobilized on silica through thiol-initiated surface polymerization; the prepared material was applied as stationary phase for HPLC. The obtained stationary phase was characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The chromatographic performance of the packed column was evaluated in reversed-phase liquid chromatograph (RPLC) and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatograph (HILIC) mode; this column has shown excellent selectivity to both the hydrophobic and hydrophilic solutes. The selectivity towards polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons relative to that towards alkylbenzenes exhibited by the prepared column was higher than the corresponding selectivity exhibited by commercial C18 column, which could be explained by electronic π-π interaction between phenylglycine and electron-rich aromatic rings. On the other hand, the prepared column has also shown better selectivity for polar compounds, which was based on the multiple interaction and retention mechanisms. It was also used to separate sulfonamides and organic acid compared with a commercial C18 and HILIC column; the results show its great chromatographic performance with distinctive selectivity. All the results indicated the prepared column had potential application in a wide range.

Both β- and γ- hydroxyketone structures are important units in biologically active molecules, synthetic drugs and fine chemicals. Although there are some routes available for their manufacture from pre-functionalized groups on one or two matrix molecule(s), the approaches to simply and simultaneously deposit two oxygen atoms from dioxygen into two specific C(sp 3 ) positions of pure saturated hydrocarbons have rarely succeeded because they are involved in the targeted activation of three inert C-H σ bonds all at once. Here, we show that a TiO 2 -CH 3 CN photocatalytic suspension system enables the insertion of dioxygen into one C(sp 3 )-C(sp 3 ) bond of strained cycloparaffin derivatives, by which difunctionalized hydroxyketone products are obtained in a one-pot reaction. With the cleavage event to release strain as the directional driving force, as-designed photocatalytic reaction systems show 21 examples of β-hydroxyketone products with 31%–76% isolated yields for three-membered ring derivatives and 5 examples of γ-hydroxyketone products with 30%–63% isolated yields for four-membered ring substrates. 18 O isotopic labeling experiments using 18 O 2 , Ti 18 O 2 and intentionally added H 2 18 O, respectively, indicated that both oxygen atoms of hydroxyketone products were exclusively from dioxygen, suggesting a previously unknown H + /TiO 2 -e − catalyzed arrangement pathway of the hydroperoxide intermediate to convert dioxygen into hydroxyketone units.
