This study reports the synthesis of a novel graphene/chitosan/β-cyclodextrin composite material (GO/CS/β-CD) via a one-step chemical reduction method, which combines the advantages of graphene, chitosan, and β-cyclodextrin. The morphology and structure of the composite were characterized using various techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy. Subsequently, sortase A (SA) was immobilized onto the GO/CS/β-CD for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus . The sensor exhibited a good linear relationship within the concentration range of 30–300 CFU/mL, with a detection limit of 12 CFU/mL. The GO/CS/β-CD composite material showed enhanced properties due to the synergistic effect of graphene, chitosan, and β-cyclodextrin. The immobilization of sortase A onto the composite material improved the sensitivity and selectivity of the sensor for the detection of S. aureus . This study presents a novel graphene/chitosan/β-cyclodextrin composite material with immobilized sortase A, demonstrating enhanced sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus, which has potential for the development of high-performance sensors in various fields.

With the development of communication and electronic technologies, smart electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption materials with tunable performance are highly desirable for applications under complicated electromagnetic circumstances. However, the performance of the ordinary EMW absorption materials is dominated by their electromagnetic parameters which are constant unless their compositions are changed. This study presents a porous EMW absorption material with adjustable effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) and reflection loss (RL) to satisfy the requirements of tunability for complex electromagnetic applications. First, a composite foam is fabricated by assembling the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to the melamine sponge (MS) framework. Next, the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is introduced to endow the MS/rGO composites with the desired shape memory property after crosslinking. In specific, the obtained MS/rGO composites show high flexibility, elasticity, and low density of 10.7 mg cm −3 , and present the minimum RL of −63.29 dB with EAB of 7.18 GHz. Additionally, the tunable EMW absorption performance of MS/rGO-TPU composites is achieved through their shape memory effect. Notably, the EAB can be adjusted to a wide range from 5.5 to 18 GHz under the compressive deformations of those composites as modulated by cooling/heating, and correspondingly the minimum RL changes from −15.4 dB down to −39.2 dB. In a word, the smart, lightweight MS/rGO and MS/rGO-TPU composite foams with adjustable EMW absorption performance are strong candidates for practical applications in complex electromagnetic fields .

Abundant of defective regions and oxygen-containing groups on graphene oxide (GO) could promote the nucleation and growth of metallic nanoparticles . In this work, the composite catalyst is synthesized by pyrolysis of the mixture powder of GO and rhodium organometallic reactant at 900 °C, Ar atmosphere and low pressure, in which dispersive Rh 2 P nanoparticles are uniformly attached on reduced graphene oxide (Rh 2 P/RGO). The sizes of Rh 2 P nanoparticles are controllable by adjusting the mass proportion of reactants. For the optimized size of Rh 2 P nanoparticles at 6.0 nm, only 11.7 and 10.3 mV of the overpotentials are required at the current density of 10 mA cm −2 in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 and 1 M KOH electrolytes, respectively, exhibiting superior HER activity over the commercial Pt/C. Theoretical calculations indicate that the hydrogen adsorption free energy of Rh 2 P/RGO composites is close to zero, and Bede charge analysis confirms the accelerated electron transport between the RGO and Rh 2 P. Therefore, the introduction of RGO substrate could not only promote a uniform distribution and tunable size of Rh 2 P NPs, but also be advantageous to the electron transport from RGO to Rh 2 P NPs, and a favorable H 2 evolution during the HER process. This work provides a facile strategy to control the size of metal phosphide nanoparticles on RGO for the design of advanced HER electrocatalysts .

Recently, the three-dimensional (3D) porous cellular foam derived from poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) via a simple CO 2 -assisted procedure has been widely applied as electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbing materials due to its one-step preparation process and high void fraction. However, delicate control of 3D microcellular structure by decoration of dielectric/magnetic components is still virgin. Herein, the hierarchical structure of 3D PVDF foam decorated with an ultra-low content of graphene nanoplates (5.0 wt%) and Ni nanochains (2.4 wt%) was successfully fabricated. The correlation between microcellular structure, and electrical conductivity/microwave absorption was systematically investigated. After introducing the conductive and magnetic components, a strong enhancement of dielectric loss, coming from the presence of conduction loss and polarization loss of 3D network, and magnetic loss, originating from strong eddy current loss and the natural resonance, was observed. Meanwhile, a high void fraction (∼92%) greatly optimized the impedance matching of incident waves and favored the multi-scattering. As a result, the superior microwave absorption was obtained, in which the effective absorption bandwidth (frequency with 90% microwave dissipation) can cover the whole K band (18–26.5 GHz) under the thickness of 3 mm. Overall, this work provides an ameliorated strategy for porous foams applied in microwave absorption.

The mesoporous Si-Fe-GO composite was prepared by sol–gel method to remove uranium. In the static adsorption process, the Si-Fe-GO composite possessed strong uranium-chelating ability with fast uranium adsorption kinetic (120 min) and high uranium adsorption capacity (576.4 mg/g). The adsorption behavior perfectly followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, revealing the nature of monolayer chemical adsorption. The tolerance experiments of coexisting ions showed that the Si-Fe-GO composite possessed a strong affinity for uranium, which was beneficial for the enrichment of uranium in a multi-component wastewater system. The good regeneration ability also reflected the practical application value of the Si-Fe-GO composite. Besides, the dynamic adsorption studies showed that the Si-Fe-GO composite might be suitable for the remediation of uranium-containing wastewater with low flow rate and low uranium concentration. In conclusion, this work would contribute to the development of functional SiO 2 materials for water remediation and meet the practical requirements for the cleanup of uranium from wastewater.

Methods allow the enhancement of nanofibers via self-assembly are potentially important for new disciplines with many advantages, including multi-anchor interaction, intrinsic mechanical properties and versatility. Herein, a microfluidic-assisted self-assembly process to construct hydroxyl functionalized boron nitride nanosheets (OH−BNNS)/graphene oxide (GO)/thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composite nanofiber film, in which stable and precisely controlled self-assembly is fulfilled by the confined ultra-small-volume chip is demonstrated. Multiple fine structural analyses alongside with the density-functional theory (DFT) calculations are implemented to confirm the synergistic effect of noncovalent interactions (hydrogen bonding interaction, π – π stacking interaction, and van der Waals attraction) plays a critical role in the robust micro-structure and a massive 700% enhancement of mechanical strength via adding only 0.3 wt% OH−BNNS and GO. Importantly, profiled from broadband optical absorption ability, robust mechanical properties and outstanding flexibility, the self-assembled 3D OH−BNNS/GO/TPU nanofiber film reveals an adorable evaporation rate of 4.04 kg m −2 h −1 under one sun illumination with stable energy transfer efficiency (93.2%) by accompanying hydrogen bonding interaction. This microfluidic-assisted self-assembly strategy will provide a constructive entry point for the rational design of nanofibers and beyond.

Research on polyurethane sponge (PUS), a widely used polymer material, and its flame-retardant performance is of great significance. In this study, PUS was modified to prepare a highly efficient flame-retardant composite using a soaking method. The PUS nearly vanished at 11 s after ignition, and the solid residue rate of the PUS was 5.65 wt% at 750 °C. The net structure, composed of nano SiO2, was maintained in the modified PUS at 750 °C, and the solid residue rate was 69.23%. The maximum HRR of the PUS decreased from 617 W/g to 40 W/g and the THR of the sample reduced from 33 kJ/g to 9 kJ/g after modification. The results suggested that the modified PUS gained excellent flame-retardant performance. The flame-retardant layer in the modified PUS was amorphous. The surface of the modified PUS was rich in Si, O, and C elements and lacked a N element, suggesting that inorganic flame retardants were abundant on the surface layer of the modified PUS. The Si-O-C vibration and Si-O-Si stretching in the modified PUS indicates that the organic–inorganic hybrid structure formed on the PUS surface, which could be attributed to the polymerization and condensation of the silica precursor. Thus, the modified PUS provided an excellent flame-retardant layer. The results are of interest for producing efficient flame-retardant PUS using a simple method.Keywords:layer-by-layer assembly;sol-gel methods;graphene oxide;silica;flame retardant;polyurethane sponge

Electrochemical chiral recognition has gained much of attention as an efficient method for enantiomeric recognition. Herein, a chiral sensing platform via β-cyclodextrin dinuclear copper (Cu-β-CD) as a chiral selector supported on graphene/polypyrrole (RGO/Ppy) nanocomposites were fabricated for recognition of tryptophan (Trp) enantiomers. Cu-β-CD with additional chiral sites improves recognition efficiency, and the addition of the conducting polymer Ppy enhances the electrical conductivity of the nanocomposite and addresses the agglomeration effect of graphene (RGO). In addition, the composition and morphology of the materials were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The mechanism of chiral recognition was evaluated by water contact angle experiments and UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy. And the battery of chiral recognition experiments revealed that the chiral sensing platform RGO/Ppy/Cu-β-CD/GCE provides excellent recognition of the Trp enantiomer with an enantioselectivity coefficient of 3.24. It also exhibits outstanding stability and reproducibility, with a minimum line of detection (LOD) of 0.37 mM and 1.05 mM for L-Trp and D-Trp, respectively. With these results, the RGO/Ppy/Cu-β-CD/GCE chiral sensing platform has provided a feasible approach for the electrochemical chiral recognition of Trp enantiomers.

With low bioaccessbility, persistence of the undissolved organic pollutants in soil and sediments poses threat to health of the resident. Although ubiquitous black carbon catalyzes a wide range of biogeochemical reactions in nature, its role in biotransformation of the compounds in non-aqueous phase like 2, 2′-nitrobiphenyl remains unclear. Reduction rate constants of 2, 2′-dinitrobiphenyl by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 increased from 0.0044 h −1 by 7-fold to 0.035 h −1 in the presence of black carbons produced at pyrolysis temperature of 250–900 °C. Accordingly, electrical conductivity of black carbon was enhanced from 0 to 5.56 S∙cm −1 . The reactivity of black carbon for catalyzing the biotransformation positively correlated with its electrical conductivity ( R 2 > 0.89), which was strongly associated with conductive graphitic clusters in it. The surface oxygenated groups in black carbon were likely not involved in the bioreduction. This work attaches importance to role of the ubiquitous black carbon in natural biotransformation of the undissolved pollutants, and elucidates new mechanism for the biotransformation.

The latent dangers of waterborne viral transmission have become a major public health concern. In this study, reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were decorated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to adsorb severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike pseudovirus and three human enteric viruses (HuNoV, HRV, and HAdV). The successful combination of CTAB with rGO-Fe 3 O 4 was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential, Brunner-Emmet-Teller, and vibrating sample magnetometer measurements. The adsorption of HuNoV and HAdV followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, while that of HRV conformed to the pseudo-second-order model. CTAB-functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 exhibited exceptionally high adsorption of HuNoV, HRV, HAdV and SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudovirus, with maximum adsorption capacities of 3.55 × 10 7 , 7.01 × 10 7 , 2.21 × 10 7 and 6.92 × 10 6 genome copies mg −1 , respectively. Moreover, the composite could effectively adsorb the four types of virus particles from coastal, tap, and river water. In addition, concentrating the virions using CTAB functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites before qPCR analysis significantly improved the detection limit. The results indicate that viruses are captured on the surface of CTAB functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites through electrostatic interactions and the intrinsic adsorption ability of rGO. Overall, CTAB-functionalized rGO-Fe 3 O 4 composites are promising materials for the adsorption and detection of human enteric viruses as well as SARS-CoV-2 from complex aqueous environments.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are expected to be used for large-scale energy storage, due to their environmentally friendly, low cost, abundant global stockpile, high capacity. However, the development of high-performance cathodic materials still faces huge challenges. Herein, cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) and Cu 2 O/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) are first reported as a cathode for AZIBs respectively. Simultaneously, the Zn//Cu 2 O/rGO battery exhibits significantly enhanced electrochemical performance with a high rate performance and an excellent cycle lifespan (139 mAh g −1 after 500 cycles at 1 A g −1 with 95.9% capacity retention), which is extremely excellent in copper-based zinc-ion battery cathode materials . Moreover, ex-situ XRD and XPS results have revealed a hybrid mechanism involving conversion reactions and classical insertion/extraction reaction. when the Zn//Cu 2 O/rGO battery discharged from the initial state to 0.2 V, part of Cu 2 O will be reduced to Cu 0 with the insertion of zinc ions ; when the Zn//Cu 2 O/rGO battery charged to 1.1 V, Cu 0 is completely oxidized to Cu 2 O with the deintercalation of zinc ions, and only Cu + is existing at this time. The results reveal the energy storage mechanism of the Cu 2 O/rGO electrode, which will provide significant help for the research on copper based cathodic materials and expect to be further explored in other ion-batteries.
