Potentially toxic dichlorophenols and heavy metal ions commonly coexist in industrial sewage, posing a serious threat to public health and the environment and making the treatment more challenging. Inspired by Suzhou bifacial embroidery, whereby the Janus-like planar structure allows different compositions to be compartmentalized onto two distinct surfaces, Janus silica nanosheets partitioning bispecific artificial receptors (i.e., molecularly imprinted sites and thiol groups) onto distinct recognition surfaces (J-MIPs/cys) were designed to independently take up 2,6-dichlorophenol (DCP) and Pb(II). For J-MIPs/cys, the thiol groups are expected to capture Pb(II) via chelating action and molecularly imprinted cavities act as highly specific recognition sites for DCP. J-MIPs/cys possessed uniform cross-sectional dimensions and thickness (∼25.3 nm), and a particle-like surface imprinted layer (∼21.8 nm). In the monocomponent system, J-MIPs/cys displayed fast binding kinetics (60 min and 45 min), large monolayer adsorption capacity (129.4 mg g−1 and 82.95 mg g−1), high affinity, and excellent regeneration after five reuse cycles (9.134% and 12.16% loss in adsorption amounts) for DCP and Pb(II), respectively. Additionally, a spontaneous and endothermic adsorption process was also confirmed. In a binary system, the presence of Pb(II) produced a prominent increase in DCP adsorption at high initial concentrations and a decrease at low initial concentrations, owing to the partial complexation of Pb(II) with excess DCP and occupation of imprinted sites by Pb(II). However, the uptake of Pb(II) was inhibited over the whole range of concentration in the presence of DCP due to the competitive adsorption onto thiol groups. In summary, J-MIPs/cys integrating novel bispecific receptors open wide possibilities for efficient and specific treatment of coexisting toxic pollutants.

Magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were coated by polyethyleneimine (PEI), and then Fe 3 O 4 @PEI was further modified with MoS 2 by the hydrothermal method to fabricate 3D flower-like structured magnetic polyethyleneimine@MoS 2 (MP@MoS 2 ) composites, and the composites were served as efficient adsorbents to capture Cr(VI) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The effects of temperature, pH, shaking time and environmental conditions on adsorption performance of MP@MoS 2 towards Cr(VI) and Pb(II) have been conducted by batch adsorption experiments. The prepared MP@MoS 2 exhibited high adsorption capacities (192.30 mg/g for Cr(VI) at pH 3.0 and 256.41 mg/g for Pb(II) at pH 6.0) and the adsorption equilibrium could be achieved in a short time. Moreover, MP@MoS 2 composites with high saturation magnetization could be simply separated under an external magnet. Combined experiments and spectral analysis, the underlying adsorption mechanism for Cr(VI) on MP@MoS 2 was mainly attributed to the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III), and the removal of Pb(II) was due to the complexation with sulfur groups and amino-groups. Consequently, the prepared 3D flower-like structured MP@MoS 2 has a great potential for the practical application in removing Cr(VI) and Pb(II) from the aquatic environment.

This work reports the electrical and thermal transport processes in p-type Pb-doped Mg3(1+x)Sb2−yPby (0.02 ≤ x ≤ 0.08; 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.02) compounds. Low-energy electron acceptor defects Mg vacancies are easy to form, which can provide holes and make p-type transport in the Mg3Sb2 matrix. However, with an increase in excess Mg, the transport behavior changes from p type to n type as manifested synergistically by both the Hall coefficient and Seebeck coefficient. This indicates the effective role of Mg in tuning carrier type and concentration for a pristine Mg3Sb2 compound. Upon substitution of Sb by Pb, the hole concentration slightly increases, and mobility is greatly improved by 133% at room temperature. The significant increase in mobility is attributed to the weakening ionized impurity scattering, stemming from the decreasing concentration induced by Pb doping. Thus, the power factor is enhanced with a 146% improvement at room temperature. Consequently, the figure of merit ZT of the Pb-doped sample is 1.8 times larger than the pristine one at around 300 K. Moreover, the non-degenerate transport behavior revealed by electrical properties is simply analyzed regarding the effects of minority carriers on the overall Seebeck coefficient. This study proposes a new strategy of charge compensation for improving mobility and a simple way to guide the prediction about the onset of bipolar conduction for Mg3Sb2-based compounds and other potential thermoelectric materials.

The simultaneous achievement of controllable electromagnetic wave absorption and electrochromism through micro-nanostructure design holds significant importance for radar stealth and visible light compatibility in complex surveillance environments. However, the synergistic design of anion insertion/intercalation and dielectric loss coordination still face significant challenges. Herein, CPBs-VO NWs composites with excellent electromagnetic wave absorption and electrochromic performance are prepared by in situ growth of CsPbBr 3 quantum dots on the surface of V 2 O 5 nanowires leveraged by the chelation effect of Pb-O bonds. The loading concentration of CsPbBr 3 quantum dots on the surface of V 2 O 5 nanowires is designed to regulate the formation and breakdown of Pb-O bonds, facilitating the investigation of the energy transfer process at the interface. The analysis reveals that the formation of Pb-O bonds enhances electron transfer across multiscale heterogeneous interfaces, resulting in increased local charge density differences, polarization, and conductivity. Additionally, it aids in the valence state change of vanadium ions through bridging, thereby achieving efficient electromagnetic wave absorption and compatibility with electrochromic performance. This study provides an insight at the atomic-level into performance enhancement and compatibility of visible light and radar stealth by precisely controlling the interface sites.

Sample preparation is a critical step to achieve reliable in situ chemical analysis. Sample mounting technique with a tin-based alloy was developed in recent years, which is particularly useful for high-precision volatile analyses by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). However, the success of this technique is hindered by challenges, such as complex alloy preparation and potential Pb contamination. Herein, we introduce a new Sn–Bi alloy preparation method that may overcome these hurdles and assess its potential as a standard preparation method for in situ volatile and isotope analyses. This new alloy can be manufactured with commercially available pure tin and bismuth metal (atomic Sn : Bi = 42 : 58), and its production requires only a heating plate and clean containers. This ensures its high accessibility to laboratories worldwide. The Pb content of the alloy is dependent on the tin and bismuth used. The material (Sn and Bi) from three different manufacturers were evaluated in this study, resulting in the virtually Pb-free MAC alloy (Pb <0.2 μg g−1). The SIMS U–Pb dating results of the zircon standards (Qinghu, Plešovice, and SA01) are consistent with the recommended values (within error). Furthermore, the mounted samples exhibit satisfactory relief on this alloy, suggesting that this alloy material is appropriate for the analysis of oxygen isotopes. The routine external precision of oxygen isotope ratios is better than 0.30‰ (2sd), on par with that obtained with epoxy mounts. The water background in the SIMS sample chamber can be recovered rapidly after sample transfer from the storage to the sample chamber. Hence, this tin-based alloy is suitable for sample mounting for SIMS volatile and isotope (incl. U–Pb) analyses.

This study investigates the migration of lead (Pb) during soil electrokinetic remediation (EKR) with sodium alginate (SA), providing important data on ion orientation and Pb removal efficiency. A 1 mV/cm voltage was applied to kaolinite contaminated with Pb²⁺, and SA was applied to regulate Pb migration. Pb was detected in both the anolyte and catholyte, with varying molar Pb/C ratios. In the anode and cathode chambers, the molar ratios reached 1:7.79 and 1:2.64, respectively. The addition of Pb 2+ disrupted the stable structure of SA, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) analysis showed that Pb²⁺ forms dual-ridentate (positively charged) and quad-/hexaridentate (negatively charged) complexes with SA, thereby influencing Pb migration toward the corresponding electrodes. Additionally, Pb in the soil transformed into immobile particulate states, such as PbO 2 , Pb 3 O 4 , and PbO. The formation of these particulate phases and conversion of mobile Pb phases to the anode reduced the Pb migration ability at the cathode. These findings offer fresh perspectives on EKR’s application for heavy metal soil remediation, particularly six-period metals on the periodic table, improving our understanding of Pb behavior during electrokinetic treatments.

Post-modification of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials is an effective means to enhance their efficient and selective adsorption for heavy metal ions . In this article, we presented a reflection-type optical fiber surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor based on dual core fiber (DCF) coated with UiO-66-RSA (UiO-66-NH 2 post-modified with resorcinol aldehyde) film for the specific detection of Pb(II) in aqueous media . The composite material UiO-66-RSA exhibits stronger affinity and specificity for Pb(II) than UiO-66-NH 2 . The adsorption of Pb(II) can change the equivalent refractive index (RI) of UiO-66-RSA film, causing a regular shift in SPR spectra. Experiments have shown that the limit of detection (LOD) of the SPR Pb(II) sensor can reach 0.1 nM. Meanwhile, research has found that the SPR sensor is accompanied by temperature crosstalk of 0.356 nm/°C. Therefore, we constructed a Michelson temperature interferometer using polymer micro tips on the end face of the fiber core to achieve temperature compensation. Based on the above two sensing channels, dual parameter demodulation of Pb(II) concentration and temperature can be achieved with an error rate of less than 0.5 %. This article has potential research value in exploring the application of post modification techniques of MOF in fiber optic lead ion detection.

To explore the effect of coexisted amino and thiol groups on adsorption of heavy metal, a novel magnetic nanoparticle was prepared by sequentially modification with (3-Chloropropyl) trimethoxysilan, polyetherimide, epichlorohydrin and thiourea. Subsequently, it was characterized by TEM, N 2 adsorption/desorption, FTIR Spectroscopy, zeta potential, and VSM. The maximum adsorption capacity for Pb 2+ , Cd 2+ and Cu 2+ reached 110.13 mg·g −1 , 40.23 mg·g −1 and 29.37 mg·g −1 , respectively. The adsorption of the magnetic nanoparticles with different surface group for heavy metals were compared, which indicated that the amino and thiol group played an important role in the adsorption of heavy metals. Especially, the adsorption capacity increased dramatically after modification with the thiol group, which was attributed to the synergistic coordination of −NH 2 and −SH. The adsorption kinetics is consistent with the quasi-second-order kinetics equation, and the adsorption thermodynamic process is consistent with the Langmuir isotherm equation. The effects of experimental conditions, such as pH, the concentration of metals, adsorption time and temperature, on adsorption of Pb 2+ were studied in detail. In addition, over 90% of removal rate was remained after 6 cycles. The magnetic nanoadsorbents was a promising nanoadsorbent with high adsorption speed, simultaneous adsorption of various heavy metals, strong anti-interference ability and reusability.

The performance of Fe 3 O 4 /attapulgite (APT) nanoparticles in Pb(II) adsorption from aqueous solutions could be improved by modifying the particles with aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) and then combining with chitosan (CS) into beads. After preparing the APTS-Fe 3 O 4 /APT@CS beads, their surface morphology and crystal phases were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The magnetic properties of APTS-Fe 3 O 4 /APT@CS were studied by a vibrating sample magnetometer, while their heat resistance and stability were characterized by thermal weight analysis. A recycling test and comparison of adsorption capacities were also carried out. The adsorption capacity of Fe 3 O 4 /APT was improved by the modification with APTS and CS. The adsorption process conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir adsorption isotherm models. The adsorption of Pb(II) reaches a maximum of 625.34 mg/g, which compares favorably with other reported adsorbents. The results show that APTS-Fe 3 O 4 /APT@CS is a promising hybrid adsorbent for effective removal of Pb(II) from water.

Uniform well-defined nanostructured BiOBr microspheres have been fabricated via a simple hydrothermal method in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and ethylene glycol (EG). The heavy metal ion adsorption on the as-synthesized nanostructured BiOBr microspheres was systematically assessed by measuring the residual concentration during the adsorption process using a colorimetric method for Cr(VI) concentration, and an extraction-colorimetric method for Cd(II) and Pb(II) concentrations. The nanostructured BiOBr microspheres showed good removal capacity for heavy metal ions (Cr, Cd, Pb), and excellent adsorption properties for low concentration heavy metal ions, indicating potential applications in water purification. Based on the quick and efficient heavy metal ion removal ability of nanostructured BiOBr microspheres, a continuous filtering-type water purification device was designed and constructed. In using this continuous filtering type water purification device, 1 g of adsorbent can purify about 4900 g of Pb(II) contaminated water, 5900 g of Cd(II) contaminated water, or 21 500 g of Cr(VI) contaminated water having initial concentrations of 200 μg L−1 to successfully attain the World Health Organization standard for drinking water. The good removal capacity can be attributed to the hierarchical nanostructure, which displays a large specific surface area and strong adsorption of heavy metal ions.

To investigate the antibacterial effect, mechanism, and cytotoxicity of Prussian blue/Cerium dioxide (PB/CeO 2 ) nanoparticles against Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and biofilm. PB/CeO 2 nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized. The antibacterial mechanism of nanoparticles was explored through peroxidase (POD) activity assay, hydroxyl radicals (·OH) detection, and measurement of bacterial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glutathione (GSH)/glutathione disulfide (GSSG) levels. The biocompatibility of PB/CeO 2 was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and histological examination of the major visceral organs of rats. The antibacterial effect of PB/CeO 2 was assessed using the colony-forming unit (CFU) method. The impact of PB/CeO 2 on E. faecalis biofilm on dentin slices was further observed with CLSM and SEM. ANOVA and t -test were applied for statistical analysis ( p < 0.05). PB/CeO 2 demonstrated significant antibacterial activity against E. faecalis , mainly when used with H 2 O 2 , significantly enhancing its antibacterial effect and effectively disrupting E. faecalis biofilms on dentin slices. PB/CeO 2 nanoparticles catalyzed ROS production, disrupting the antioxidant defense system of E. faecalis cells, damaging bacterial cell membranes, and ultimately causing bacterial death. PB/CeO 2 nanoparticles exhibit good biocompatibility at appropriate concentrations in vivo and in vitro. The novel multifunctional nanocomposite shows great antibacterial effects against E. faecalis and its biofilm, with low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility, offering a novel disinfection strategy for root canal treatment.

Lead is one of the most common toxic heavy metals in the environment and it is easily accessible by the human body because there are residues in daily necessities and food. Therefore, it is significant to develop the high-performance detection method of lead ion (Pb(II)) in the environment and food. In this work, a sensitive and selective electrochemical sensing platform of Pb(II) was successfully constructed based on dopamine polymer doped polypyrrole (PDA-PPy) hydrogel modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) (noted as PDA-PPy/SPCE). PDA-PPy hydrogel was prepared by the hybridization of dopamine hydrochloride and pyrrole through a rapid and eco-friendly one-step synthesis method. Combined the selective adsorption capacity and good conductivity of PDA-PPy hydrogel, it was employed as the modified material for electrodes to achieve signal amplification. The result showed that PDA-PPy/SPCE exhibited excellent sensing performance towards Pb(II) with low detection limit of 0.15 μg L -1 and high sensitivity of 0.17 μg L -1 μA -1 . Besides, acceptable recoveries were shown in real sample analysis, indicating that it has application prospects.
