Homocysteine (Hcy) is a key biomarker for various diseases, and its precise detection is essential for early clinical diagnosis. Herein, an innovative ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor was constructed to overcome the limitations in sensitivity, selectivity, and stability in conventional Hcy detection methods. Firstly, we synthesized a novel 3D MXene/rGO aerogel loaded AuNPs composite (Au/MGA-40) with outstanding specific surface area and remarkable electrical conductivity. Next, the Hcy aptamer was self-assembled to the Au/MGA-40/MB modified electrode surface by gold sulfur bonds (Au-S). Finally, a ratiometric detection mode was established based on the linear relationship between the oxidation peak current ratios (I Hcy /I MB ) and the Hcy concentrations. The aptasensor exhibited excellent analytical behavior for Hcy, with a ultrawide detection range from 2.14 nM to 200 μM and a detection limit as low as 0.835 nM. It also displayed remarkable selectivity due to the specific recognition between Hcy and the aptamer, enabling discrimination of Hcy from structurally similar molecules such as cysteine (Cys), glutathione (GSH) and methionine (Met). The ratio signal mode demonstrated superior long-term stability performance compared to conventional single signal sensors. As evidenced by the successful detection of Hcy in human serum, which underscores its potential for early screening of Hcy-related diseases.

Xylene is not only a carcinogenic gas, but also one of indoor pollution gases. Therefore, it is indispensable to develop a xylene gas sensor with fast response and high sensitivity. In this paper, 5 wt%rGO-Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 -1 wt%Pt gas sensitive material was prepared by integrating the excellent properties of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and noble metal Pt. In addition, the microstructure, elemental composition, phase and crystal structure of 5 wt%rGO-Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 -1 wt%Pt nanocomposites were characterized. The nanostructure of Pt-modified Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 nano-hollow spheres compounded on rGO was successfully prepared. The gas sensitive experiment results showed that 5 wt%rGO-Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 -1 wt%Pt had better gas sensitive performance than Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 (FMO), FMO-1 wt%Pt and 5 wt%rGO-FMO. At the optimum working temperature (175℃), the 5 wt%rGO-FMO-1 wt%Pt sensor had a maximum response value to xylene, and could detect 500 ppb xylene. In addition, the 5 wt%rGO-FMO-1 wt%Pt nanocomposite showed a rapid response and recovery process to xylene. Moreover, the gas sensitivity mechanism and enhancement of gas sensitivity of 5 wt%rGO-FMO-1 wt%Pt to xylene were systematically analyzed. The 5 wt%rGO-FMO-1 wt%Pt gas sensor prepared provided a new reference for the detection of xylene.

As a kind of essential hydrated salt phase change energy storage materials, mirabilite with high energy storage density and mild phase-transition temperature has excellent application potential in the problems of solar time and space mismatch. However, there are some disadvantages such as supercooling, substantial phase stratification and leakage problem, limiting its further applications. In this work, for the preparation of shaped mirabilite phase change materials (MPCMs), graphene (GO), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were used as starting materials to prepare lightweight CMC/rGO/CNFs carbon aerogel (CGCA) as support with stable shape, high specific surface area, and well-arranged hierarchically porous structure. The results show that CGCA has regular layered plentiful pores and stable foam structure, and the pore and sheet interspersed structure in CGCA stabilizes PCMs via capillary force and surface tension. The hydrophilic aerogels supported MPCMs decrease mirabilite leaking and reduce supercooling to around 0.7–1 °C. The latent heats of melting and crystallization of CGCA-supported mirabilite phase change materials (CGCA-PCMs) are 157.1 and 114.8 J·g −1 , respectively. Furthermore, after 1500 solid—liquid cycles, there is no leakage, and the retention rate of crystallization latent heat is 45.32%, exhibiting remarkable thermal cycling stability.

The electrochemical behaviors of the ultrashort nickel phosphite nanorods supported on reduced graphene oxide (Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6/rGO nanorods), as a candidate for cathodic applications in aluminum-ion batteries, are firstly investigated. Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6/rGO nanorods are synthesized by a facile solvothermal process. Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6 and Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6/rGO cathodes both possess very high initial discharge capacities of 132.4 and 182.0 mA h g−1 at a current density of 200 mA g−1, respectively. In addition, the long-term cycling stability of the Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6/rGO cathode is further evaluated, exhibiting a discharge capacity of 49.2 mA h g−1 even over 1500 cycles. More importantly, the redox reaction mechanism of the Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6 cathode for aluminum-ion batteries revealed that Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6 is partially substituted with Al3+ to form AlmNin(HPO3)8(OH)6 and metallic Ni in the nanorod-like Ni11(HPO3)8(OH)6 cathodes during the discharge process. These findings are of great significance for the further development of novel materials for aluminum-ion batteries.

Currently, there is a huge demand for medical biomaterials aimed to improve antibacterial effect and promote wound healing. In this work, a facile and single-step approach of synthesizing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite material (namely, AgNPs@rGO) using high-voltage direct-current (DC) non-thermal plasma was proposed. Electron-beam (e-beam) from the DC-plasma discharge zone was implanted into the solution of AgNO 3 and graphene oxide (GO), leading to the reduction of both GO and silver ions. As a result, AgNPs were formed and distributed homogeneously on the reduced graphene sheets. This composite material exhibits excellent antibacterial performance, being able to kill both Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) effectively. Furthermore, this composite material was utilized to prepare wound-healing band-aids. The in vitro assay on mice confirmed the satisfactory curing effect. The cytotoxicity for bio-compatibility and the mechanism for sterilization were also examined and clarified. As such, this work puts forward a facile and new route of preparing antibacterial biomaterial and demonstrates its promising prospect in wound-healing application.

The electronic conductive metal-organic frameworks (EC-MOFs) based on a single ligand are not suitable for the accurate detection of bisphenol A (BPA) due to the limitations of their electron-transfer-based sensing mechanism. To overcome this drawback, we developed EC-MOFs with novel dual-ligands, 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxy-sanya-phenyl (HHTP) and tetrahydroxy 1,4-quinone (THQ), and metal ions. A new class of 2D π-conjugation-based EC-MOFs (M-(HHTP)(THQ)) was synthesized by a self-assemble technique. Its best member (Cu-(HHTP)(THQ)) was selected and combined with reduced graphene (rGO) to form a Cu-(HHTP)(THQ)@rGO composite, which was thoroughly characterized by X-ray diffraction, field scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Cu-(HHTP)(THQ)@rGO was drop-cast onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to obtain a sensor for BPA detection. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance tests were used to evaluate the electrode performance. The oxidation current of BPA on the Cu-(HHTP)(THQ)@rGO/GCE was substantially higher than on unmodified GCE, which could be explained by a synergy between Cu-(HHTP)(THQ) (which provided sensing and adsorption) and rGO (which provided fast electron conductivity and high surface area). Cu-(HHTP)(THQ)@rGO/GCE exhibited a linear detection range for 0.05–100 μmol·L−1of BPA with 3.6 nmol·L−1(S/N = 3) detection limit. We believe that our novel electrode and BPA sensing method extends the application perspectives of EC-MOFs in the electrocatalysis and sensing fields.

Overuse of antibiotics threatens water security, and photocatalysis is a potential technology to alleviate this problem. In this study, the TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO nanocomposite materials were prepared by a solvothermal process, and a series of characterizations were carefully examined. Then, the removal of norfloxacin from water under visible light irradiation was investigated to evaluate the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO. The TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO composite catalyst has higher photocatalytic activity than TiO 2 and TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 under visible light, and the optimal addition content for rGO is 0.5%. After 60 min of visible light irradiation, the degradation rate of norfloxacin on TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO-0.5% reached 87.79%. Furthermore, the UV–Vis of the complex suggests that the ligand-metal electron transfer mechanism enhances the catalytic activity of TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO. Finally, the mechanism of photocatalytic degradation of norfloxacin by TiO 2 /Bi 2 WO 6 /rGO composite catalyst was proposed.

Flexible strain sensors have attracted wide attention to the field of applications on wearable electronic devices. However, they still have numerous defects, such as low linearity and low sensitivity. In this paper, high-elastic polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) melt-blown non-woven fabric (MB) was chosen as the substrate of the strain sensor. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and silver nanowires (AgNWs) were loaded on the PBT MB surface by simple ultrasonic treatments to form a dense and stable conductive path. The sensing properties of the sensors loaded with the different concentration load ratios of rGO and AgNWs were studied and the best load ratio was 1:0.9. The results showed that the sensor has excellent sensing characteristics, including wide range of applications (90 %), extremely high sensitivity (guage factor (GF) up to 1829 at 80 % strain). Finally, the strain sensor has demonstrated in monitoring an assortment of human-exercises even some subtle physiological signals.

The sluggish redox kinetics and shuttling effect result in low sulfur utilization, large polarization and rapid capacity decay of lithium-sulfur batteries. Here, we develop iron phosphide nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide composites (FeP/rGO) as sulfiphilic host materials, which not only immobilize the polysulfides but also facilitate the fast charge transport kinetics, contributing to the reduced polarization and effective adsorption–diffusion–conversion interface of polysulfides . Moreover, the superficial oxidation of FeP nanoparticles helps to enhance the catalytic effect, facilitating a higher coulombic efficiency. As a consequence, the optimized S@FeP/rGO exhibits a high initial capacity of 1467 mAh g −1 at 0.1 C with a sulfur utilization of 87.7% and stable cycling stability with a capacity retention of 646 mAh g −1 at 1 C after 500 cycles. Even with a high sulfur loading of 6.1 mg cm −2 , the cell can still deliver an initial capacity of 835 mAh g −1 at 0.2 C. In addition, the modified separator using FeP/rGO composites also exhibits excellent electrochemical performance . The current work provides a proof-of-concept study and practical application of S@FeP/rGO positive electrode in the lithium-sulfur batteries.

Smart hydrogel materials demonstrated promising application prospects in flexible electronic devices, human-machine interaction systems, and soft robotics owing to their exceptional electrical conductivity. However, significant technical challenges remained to be addressed for developing multifunctional hydrogel systems integrating both sensing and actuation capabilities. In this study, polydopamine (PDA) was employed to conduct in-situ reduction of graphene oxide (GO) under alkaline conditions, yielding reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with superior electrical conductivity and high photothermal conversion efficiency. The resulting nanomaterial was subsequently combined with natural polysaccharide starch to fabricate a poly (acrylic acid-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)/starch/reduced graphene oxide (P(AA-HEMA)/St/rGO) hydrogel composite. This hydrogel system exhibited not only exceptional mechanical properties (176 kPa tensile stress and 1258 % strain) and durability, but also demonstrated high conductivity (3.64 S/m) and sensitive sensing characteristics (achieving a gauge factor of 5.15 at 1300 % strain). The developed hydrogel sensor accurately detected various physiological signals including fist clenching, pulse vibration, and vocalization. Furthermore, by leveraging its excellent photothermal response properties, a three-dimensional array sensor configuration was established, enabling real-time monitoring of ambient temperature variations. Through ingenious material design and structural optimization, this research successfully developed a multifunctional smart hydrogel, providing a novel material solution for biomedical applications and flexible electronic devices.

Demand for SiC-based polymer-derived ceramics (PDCs) employed as hypersonic vehicle components with light weight, high strength, excellent high-temperature/ablation resistance is increasingly urgent. Herein, bulk SiC(Hf, rGO) nanocomposite PDCs were fabricated via re-pyrolyzing ball-milling blends of unique SiC(Hf, rGO) p /polyhafniumcarbosilane-vinyltriethoxysilane-graphene oxide (PHVG). Highly cross-linked PHVG can effectively optimize compact formability and improve ceramic yield. In-situ formed HfO 2 embedded in ceramic network toughens microstructure, while interfacial HfOSi increases structure disorder to improve high-temperature properties. As demonstrated, SiC(Hf, rGO) modified by 3 wt.% Hf and re-pyrolyzed at 1300 °C possess good mechanical performances including hardness (5.83 GPa), fracture toughness (4.29 MPa·m 1/2 ), compressive strength (181.83 MPa) and flexural strength (46.55 MPa). More interestingly, self-healing HfO 2 (HfSiO 4 )/SiO 2 protective layer emerging during 20 min surface ablation test at 1300 °C, timely covers defects and avoids destructive structure, thus retains stable structure and mechanical properties of specimens. Such nanocomposites can promote uses in thermal protection systems (TPS) for hypersonic vehicles against extreme high-temperature environments.

Developing multifunctional materials with integrated microwave absorption and corrosion resistance is crucial for expanding the practical application scope of functional materials in complex marine environments. In this work, a series of multiscale zero-dimensional/two-dimensional (0D/2D) heterostructure composites (denoted as MG@E) were successfully fabricated via a facile in-situ hydrothermal method. In this structural design, zero-dimensional europium-based metal–organic framework (EuMOF) microspheres are uniformly anchored on two-dimensional modified reduced graphene oxide (M/rGO) nanosheets, which effectively optimizes the impedance matching characteristic and improves the electromagnetic wave attenuation capacity of the composites. The excellent microwave absorption performance of MG@E composites originates from the synergistic effects of multiple loss mechanisms, including interfacial polarization at 0D/2D heterointerfaces, dipole polarization of MOF ligands, conductive loss, and magnetic dissipation. The optimized MG@E3 sample delivers a minimum reflection loss (RL) of −54.02 dB at a matching thickness of 2.1 mm, and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 4.5 GHz at a thin thickness of 1.4 mm. Furthermore, the electrochemical test results demonstrate that MG@E composite coatings can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of Q235 steel. Specifically, the MG@E2 sample achieves a corrosion protection efficiency of 94.8% even after 21 days of immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. The improved anti-corrosion performance is mainly attributed to the synergistic barrier effect derived from the 0D EuMOF microspheres embedded in the 2D labyrinth-like structure of M/rGO, which inhibits the penetration of corrosive media. It is worth noting that the comprehensive performance of the composites is still restricted by material dosage and preparation conditions to a certain extent. This work provides a feasible and referential strategy for the rational design and preparation of high-performance microwave absorption materials with improved marine environmental adaptability and long-term service potential.
