A magnetic Cl − -intercalated Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MgAl-Cl − LDH nanocomposite has been successfully synthesized by modified one-step salt-assisted coprecipitation process. The Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MgAl-Cl − LDH nanocomposite was characterized by FTIR, XRD, XPS, SEM, HRTEM, BET and VSM. The results showed that the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MgAl-Cl − LDH particles possessed core (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 ) shell (Cl − -LDH) structures and magnetic properties, and Cl − anions were successfully introduced into LDH interlayers. The unique intercalated structure with week interlayer interaction of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MgAl-Cl − LDH provide efficient adsorption of methyl orange (MO), Congo red (CR) and methyl blue (MB), leading to its superior performance with much higher uptake capability with the maximum adsorption capacity of MO, CR and MB reaching 733 mg·g −1 , 910 mg·g −1 and 385 mg·g −1 , respectively. The adsorption process could be well described by pseudo-second-order model for MO, CR and MB. The experimental data of MO and CR could be fitted better with Freundlich model, while that of MB were fitted better with Langmuir model. The adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic for MO and MB, while spontaneous and endothermic for CR. Moreover, the adsorbent exhibits excellent stability and reusability in the regeneration cycle, and a process called ‘‘post-processing step” is proposed to effectively improve the dye removal ability of the adsorbent in reuse. This study puts forward a new thought for the development of high-performance LDH adsorbents with mesoporous and Cl − intercalation structure for the efficient and rapid removal of dyes.

Transparent ZnO/polymer nanocomposites with good UV shielding performance have shown great potential applications. Due to the photocatalytic activity of ZnO, core–shell structure nanoparticles (NPs) have been used to fabricate the transparent polymer-based nanocomposites. However, it is still a challenge to synthesize core–shell structure NPs with small particle size and good dispersity, and difficult to maintain the transparency of the nanocomposites because of Rayleigh scattering caused by the big size or the aggregation of NPs. This article reports a novel reverse microemulsion combined with surface modification method for the synthesis of monodispersed silica-coated ZnO (ZnO@SiO 2 ) NPs, which are introduced into ethocel (EC) matrix to fabricate the transparent nanocomposites by the solution-mixing method. The ZnO@SiO 2 NPs with an average size of 12 nm have an obvious core–shell structure and show excellent monodispersity in toluene. The as-prepared EC/ZnO@SiO 2 nanocomposites shield all the UV light completely under 350 nm and maintain the transparency of pure EC even the solid content reaches 60 parts per hundred of EC resin by weight (phr). Importantly, the photocatalytic activity of ZnO NPs is eliminated thoroughly by the silica shell, which apparently improves the UV aging resistance of polymer (EC), enabling the applications of ZnO as durable and environmental friendly UV blocker in transparent plastics and coatings to extend the lifetime of the products.

Specific tumor-responsive capabilities and efficient synergistic therapeutic performance are the keys to effective tumor treatment. Herein, AuNRs@SiO2–RB@MnO2 was developed as a new type of tumor-responsive nanotheranostic for multimodal imaging and synergistic chemodynamic/photothermal therapy. In AuNRs@SiO2–RB@MnO2, the SiO2 layer wraps the AuNRs, providing light absorption in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) region. The SiO2 layer also adsorbs the MnO2 nanosheets, which have Fenton-like activity, resulting in a fluorescent sensing platform based on the fluorescence quenching properties of MnO2 for rhodamine B dye. The fluorescence can be recovered by the consumption of MnO2 by glutathione, which simultaneously produces Mn2+ in the tumor region. The recovery of fluorescence reflects the consumption of glutathione and the increase in Mn2+, which produces hydroxyl radicals via Fenton-like reaction in the tumor microenvironment to realize chemodynamic therapy. Meanwhile, the AuNRs are a good photothermal reagent that can effectively absorb NIR-II light and convert it into heat energy to kill tumor cells via photothermal therapy. The NIR-II absorption performance of the AuNRs provides good photoacoustic imaging and deep photothermal performance, which is favorable for efficient NIR-II photoacoustic imaging-guided photothermal therapy. As a result, the AuNRs@SiO2–RB@MnO2 nanotheranostic exhibits outstanding imaging and synergistic chemodynamic/photothermal therapeutic performance for tumor imaging and treatment.

Y 2 W 3 O 12 particles with negative thermal expansion (NTE) can offset the high thermal expansion of Ag-based sealants, thus relieving the residual stress of electrolyte/interconnect joints in protonic ceramic fuel cell (PCFC) stacks. Nevertheless, violent interfacial reactions between Y 2 W 3 O 12 particles and BaZr 0.1 Ce 0.7 Y 0.1 Yb 0.1 O 3-δ electrolyte have severely restricted the application of these NTE particles. Herein, novel Y 2 W 3 O 12 @SiO 2 composite particles with a core-shell structure are successfully designed to address this conundrum. The thermal expansion coefficient of Ag-based sealant is lowered from 19.7 to 14.6 ppm/K by adding 20 wt% Y 2 W 3 O 12 @SiO 2 particles. During joining, the SiO 2 shell significantly reduces the reaction consumption of Y 2 W 3 O 12 , fully exploiting its NTE properties. Meanwhile, a tiny portion of SiO 2 participates in and regulates interfacial reactions, generating mechanically matched reaction layers. Finite element simulation demonstrates that introducing Y 2 W 3 O 12 @SiO 2 particles significantly releases the compressive X-stress near the BaZr 0.1 Ce 0.7 Y 0.1 Yb 0.1 O 3-δ interface, thus increasing the joint strength from ∼25.3 to ∼32.4 MPa. Obtained joints maintain long-term stability in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres at 600 °C, suggesting the applicability of Y 2 W 3 O 12 @SiO 2 composite particles in fabricating PCFC stacks. Our work provides a new strategy for preparing NTE materials with controllable interfacial reactions and service capability under extreme conditions.

Herein, we reduced the ZnO-modified copper phyllosilicate to synthesize a series of Cu/ZnO/SiO 2 catalysts ( x CuZn/SiO 2 ) which were mixed with γ-Al 2 O 3 for dimethyl ether steam reforming (DME SR). The structure and the formation of copper phyllosilicate were systematically characterized by nitrogen adsorption, XRD and IR. The novel synthetic route led to the remarkably high dispersion of copper species and adjustable Cu 0 /Cu + ratio on the catalyst surface, resulting in the superior catalytic performance for DME SR. The amount of Cu 0 and Cu + sites on the catalyst surface was dramatically affected by ZnO loading, and the turnover frequency results indicated that the 4CuZn/SiO 2 catalyst (Cu/Zn = 4) with the Cu 0 /Cu + ratio of 1 showed the highest catalytic performance. The XPS, H 2 -TPR and TEM results revealed the existence of strong interaction between Cu species and ZnO on the reduced 4CuZn/SiO 2 catalyst, which suppressed the reverse water-gas reaction and prevented the sintering of copper.

A novel ZnO nanowire/macroporous SiO 2 composite was used as a support to immobilize chloroperoxidase (CPO) by in situ cross-linking method. An anionic bi-epoxy compound was synthesized and used as a long-chained anionic cross-linker, and it was adsorbed on the surface of ZnO nanowires through static interaction before reaction with CPO, creating a new approach to change the structure, property, and catalytic performance of the produced cross-linking enzyme aggregates (CLEAs) of CPO. The immobilized CPO showed high activity in the decolorization of three azo dyes. The effect of various conditions such as the loading amount of CPO, solution pH, temperature, and dye concentration was optimized on the decolorization. Under optimized conditions, the decolorization percentage of Acid Blue 113, Direct Black 38, and Acid Black 10 BX reached as high as 95.4, 92.3, and 89.1%, respectively. The immobilized CPO exhibited much better thermostability and resistance to pH inactivation than free CPO. The storage stability and reusability were greatly improved through the immobilization. It was found from the decolorization of Acid Blue 113 that 83.6% of initial activity retained after incubation at 4 °C for 60 days and that 80.9% of decolorization efficiency retained after 12 cycles of reuses.

Solar steam generation (SSG) is one of the promising technologies for seawater desalination and contaminated water purification . However, SSG devices are always restricted by poor insulation performance, insufficient solar spectrum absorption and serious salt-fouling. Here, a double-layered novel SSG system was fabricated by using poly(ionicliquid)s gels with hollow SiO 2 microspheres in-situ doping to enhance the thermal insulation of lower layer, and co-modified the top surface by polypyrrole (PPy) and silver particles to strengthen the solar absorption capability. Benefiting from the low thermal conductivity (0.082 W m −1 k −1 ), strong light absorption ( ca . 96%) and adequate water transport capability of poly(ionic liquid)s gels. As SSG device, a superb photothermal conversion efficiency of 90.5% is achieved under 1 sun illumination. Moreover, the poly(ionic liquid)s gels based SSG system also shows good desalination performance in artificial sea water and high concentration brine, and the purified water from artificial seawater can achieve the WHO's standard for drinking water . Therefore, this work combined attractive in-situ doping and co-modified strategies for fabricating high performance and thus shows significant potential for real applications.

A compounded nanoparticle with multiple double bonds (CC) was prepared by grafting glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto the surface of nano-SiO2. Then gel-free long chain branched polyethylene (LCBPE) was prepared by melt branching reaction in a Haake torque rheometer in the presence of initiator peroxide and GMA grafted nano-SiO2 (SiO2-g-GMA). The sampling time corresponded to the summit of the reaction peak in the torque curve. Fourier transform infrared results indicated that SiO2-g-GMA had been grafted onto the HDPE backbone via radical reaction. The reaction mechanism and the topological structure of the PE products are also discussed. Rheological results showed that the relaxation time and molecular weight distribution of modified PE were increased owing to the introduction of LCB structure, and the more SiO2-g-GMA was added, the more apparent variation could be observed. Compared with linear HDPE, both the melt strength and mechanical properties of LCBPE were improved obviously. From the differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy results, smaller crystal size and lower growth rate were observed compared with linear HDPE, which are ascribed to the nucleation and restriction of long branching chains in the system. Well distributed nano-SiO2 without any agglomeration in the PE matrix was observed in the scanning electron microscope images when the SiO2-g-GMA content was less than 3 phr.

To overcome the poor stability of metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) prepared in organic solvents, a solid reaction method at high temperature was developed using sol–gel porous SiO 2 as a reactor. Sol-gel SiO 2 powders were used to encapsulate CsPbX 3 NCs at high temperatures (600–800 °C) in air to get SiO 2 /CsPbX 3 glass by dispersing growth cites in advance and no ligands added. After NaOH etching, a thin dense SiO 2 shell was remained on the surface of CsPbX 3 NCs (named as CsPbX 3 @SiO 2 ).The photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of the CsPbX 3 @SiO 2 was 86.7 %, in which their PL peak wavelengths were adjusted from 410-707 nm by changing halogen components. The dense SiO 2 shell on CsPbX 3 NCs blocked the connection of CsPbX 3 cores with water and oxygen in the external environment, resulting in CsPbX 3 @SiO 2 revealed extraordinary high stability. After immersing in water for half year, the PL intensity of CsPbX 3 @SiO 2 composites was remained unchanged and the composites still revealed bright PL after heat-treating in boiling water for 14 h. These highly stable composites were used to fabricate a white light-emitting diode, in which the color coordinates are located at (0.36, 0.33), and the color temperature reaches 5169 K which belongs to the warm white light range.

In this study, a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of Pb(II) was developed based on Ru(bpy) 3 2+ encapsulated UiO66 metal-organic-framework (Ru(bpy) 3 2+ −UiO66 MOF) and −NH 2 group functionalized silica (NH 2 −SiO 2 ). The NH 2 −SiO 2 with large surface area provided an excellent platform for the ECL sensor. As numerous exposed carboxyl groups were present on UiO66 backbone, the Ru(bpy) 3 2+ −UiO66 could be steadily immobilized to NH 2 −SiO 2 by forming amide bonds. Meanwhile, the introduced UiO66 MOF which used for the encapsulation of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ , significantly enhanced the ECL efficiency of the proposed sensor, as it possessed a large specific surface area and porosity for the loading of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ . Moreover, a high quenching effect on ECL intensity was obtained in the presence of Pb(II) in the electrolyte. Under the optimal conditions, the quenched ECL intensity showed a good linear relationship within Pb(II) concentration in the range from 1.0×10 −6 to 1.0×10 2 μM, with a detection limit of 1.0×10 −7 μM ( S / N =3). The proposed sensor for Pb(II) detection was simple in operation, rapid in testing, stable in signal, and showed a good anti-interference ability to some other metal ions. Besides, its application for detecting Pb(II) in a real sample was also investigated here. This work provides a potential platform for metal ions detection in environmental monitoring field.

In this study, a magnetic Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 /BiOBr composite photocatalyst was controllably synthesized a PVP-assisted solvothermal method. The Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 /BiOBr composites are composed of many three-dimensional (3D) flower-like BiOBr microspheres loaded with many spherical Fe 3 O 4 particles. The formation mechanism and effect of PVP’s concentration on the products were investigated and proposed. Experimental results showed that PVP might act as a potential crystal plane inhibitor in the system as well as the stabilizer on the surface of BiOBr nanoplates. The Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 /BiOBr displayed high photocatalytic activity for the degradation of RhB under visible light irradiation, after which it can be easily recovered by applying an external magnetic field. Moreover, the as-prepared photocatalyst exhibited excellent stability and reusability in the cycled experiments.

This study investigated the mechanisms and performance of SiO2 nanofluid for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in low-permeability cores. Three-phase contact angles for quartz/oil/brine systems were measured, and the microscopic imbibition characteristics of nanofluids in a capillary were observed through visualization experiments. In addition, the effects of the adsorption of the nanoparticles on the oil–water relative permeability was studied using core displacement tests. Furthermore, a total of 11 core flooding tests were performed, and the effects of injection parameters, such as nanoparticle concentration, injection rate, and injection scheme, on the oil recovery were investigated. Wettability alterations were observed among quartz/oil/brine systems that contributed to higher displacement efficiencies in microscopic imbibition tests. Relative permeability measurements showed that, upon the adsorption of the nanoparticles, the irreducible water saturation and oil-phase relative permeability increased whereas the water-phase relative permeability decreased. Moreover, nanoparticles tended to adhere to the pore surface of the rock, which significantly changed the wettability of cores to strongly water-wet conditions. Nanofluid displacement tests showed that additional 4.48–10.33% increments in the oil recovery can be obtained compared to conventional waterflooding. With increasing nanoparticle concentration, the viscosity and asphaltene content of the produced oil gradually decreased. The results showed that the optimum nanoparticle concentration was 10 ppm, whereas further a increase in the injected nanoparticle concentration could plug the pore throats, resulting in a slight decrease in tertiary oil recovery. The effects of nanofluid imbibition on the recovery were more significant at lower injection rates, leading to higher recoveries. Furthermore, it was found that cyclic nanofluid injection can provide higher tertiary oil recovery than a continuous nanofluid injection scheme.
