The exceptional corrosion resistance and combined physical and chemical self-cleaning capabilities of superhydrophobic photocatalytic coatings have sparked significant interest among researchers. In this paper, we propose an economical and eco-friendly superhydrophobic epoxy resin coating that incorporates SiO2@CuO/HDTMS nanoparticles modified with Hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS). The application of superhydrophobic coatings effectively reduces the contact area between the metal surface and corrosive media, leading to a decreased corrosion rate. Additionally, the incorporation of nanomaterials, exemplified by SiO2@CuO core–shell nanoparticles, improves the adhesion and durability of the coatings on aluminum alloy substrates. Experimental data from Tafel curve analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) confirm the superior corrosion resistance of the superhydrophobic modified aluminum alloy surface compared to untreated surfaces. Estimations indicate a significant reduction in corrosion rate after superhydrophobic treatment. Furthermore, an optical absorption spectra analysis of the core–shell nanoparticles demonstrates their suitability for photocatalytic applications, showcasing their potential contribution to enhancing the overall performance of the coated surfaces. This research underscores the promising approach of combining superhydrophobic properties with photocatalytic capabilities to develop advanced surface modification techniques for enhanced corrosion resistance and functional properties in diverse industrial settings.

In this study, amino-functionalized magnetic particles (iron oxide@SiO2-NH2) with core-shell structures were synthesized and evaluated for rapid boron removal from aqueous solutions. The results showed that the specific surface area of the iron oxide@SiO2-NH2(131.24 m2⋅g−1) increased greatly compared to pure iron oxide (30.98 m2⋅g−1). The adsorption equilibrium was less than 2 h, with an adsorption capacity of 29.76 mg⋅g−1at pH = 6 at 15 °C. The quasi-second-order kinetic model described the boron adsorption process well, and both the Langmuir and Freundlich models were suitable for characterizing the adsorption isotherms. The zeta potential and XPS analysis before and after adsorption revealed that the main adsorption mechanism was the hydrogen bonding formation between the terminal -NH2groups of the adsorbent and the boric acid. In addition, the adsorbent still maintained a high adsorption performance after five adsorption–desorption cycles, which illustrated that the iron oxide@SiO2-NH2may be a potential adsorbent for environmental boron removal treatment.

Developing catalysts with not only hydrogenation activity but also cracking activity is very important for the advancement of suspended-bed hydrocracking technology. Within this respect, MoS 2 /SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 bifunctional catalyst is a kind of typical catalysts with both hydrogenation and cracking activity. Herein, a series of Zr-doped SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 mixed oxides were synthesized by a sol-gel coupled with hydrothermal method. The synthesized mixed oxides were characterized for chemical structures and acidic properties. It is found that doping SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 with Zr atoms significantly increases the numbers of acidic sites. The Zr-doped SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 mixed oxides were then combined with dispersed MoS 2 , which was in-situ produced from oil-soluble Mo precursors, to fabricate a novel kind of bifunctional catalysts for suspended-bed hydrocracking of heavy oils. Owing to the significantly increased numbers of acidic sites in Zr-doped SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 mixed oxides, corresponding bifunctional catalysts demonstrate much enhanced activity for suspended-bed hydrocracking of heavy oils in relative to MoS 2 /SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 bifunctional catalysts.

The pollution of water resource and shortage of clean water have become increasingly severe, developing an urgent demand of reliable, efficient yet low-cost material for everyday water purification . In the present work, a superhydrophobic paper tissue-based SiO 2 /PDMS composite has been prepared for both oil absorption and water-in-oil emulsion separation. The fabrication process is quite simple since it takes the full advantage of tissue that has naturally strong capillary force of which allows the material to absorb oil from water much more rapidly and completely (>99.9%) even under harsh conditions. The study has shown the novel material is exceptionally efficient in separating water-in-oil emulsion under gravity but no need of extraneous pressure. A variety of emulsions has been proven with high flux (>2,000 L m −2 h −1 ) and high separation efficiency (>99.4%). It is believed that this study has proposed a highly reliable and efficient, low cost strategy in both oil absorption and water purification , which shed light on water treatment of both civil use and industry.

In our previous paper, we reported the synthesis of easily recyclable and highly active rice roll-like (RR-like) Au/SiO 2 nanocatalysts (NCs) in inverse miniemulsions [Colloids Surf. A 517, 2017, 52–62]. In the present contribution, the influences of three key synthesis parameters, including the 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) content, reaction temperature, and urea amount, on the particle properties of the Au/SiO 2 NCs were systematically investigated. The role of these synthesis parameters in the formation of SiO 2 nanosupports and Au nanoparticles (NPs) was discovered. The RR-like SiO 2 nanosupports could only be formed in the systems within the range of 20–80 mol% of APTES content, at reaction temperatures above 60 °C, and with more than 0.72 mg of urea. The AuCl 4 − ions could be immobilized onto the aminopropyl-functionalized SiO 2 nanosupports through a coordination interaction. The immobilized ions were reduced by the aminopropyl groups at elevated temperatures. The APTES content and reaction temperature play an important role in controlling the particle size and its distribution of Au NPs. The catalytic activity of Au/SiO 2 NCs depends significantly on the APTES content. The RR-like Au/SiO 2 NCs with smaller immobilized Au NPs and higher specific surface area display higher catalytic activity towards hydrogenation of p -nitrophenol.

To obtain high stable and effective TiO2 photocatalyst, nano-N-doped TiO2@SiO2 (TiO2−xNx@SiO2, 0 ≤ x ≤ 2) composite aerogels were synthesized by the sol-gel method combined with supercritical drying and direct oxidation process. The adsorption/photocatalytic degradation efficiency of TiO2−xNx@SiO2 aerogels was evaluated by the degradation of RhB in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. The physiochemical properties of the aerogels were examined by XRD, FT-IR, TEM, SEM, TG/DTA, and BET methods. It was found that the specific surface areas of all TiO2−xNx@SiO2 samples exceeded 700 m2/g and exhibited a honeycomb porous structure with fine particulate morphology. Photocatalytic activity tests show that the 500-TiO2@SiO2 composite aerogel exhibits the best adsorption/photocatalytic degradation rate for RhB, which obtained about 80% of the degradation rate in 30 min under visible light and over 95% after 120 min. On the one hand, the SiO2 aerogels can significantly inhibit the phase transition of TiO2, and the nano TiO2 can be highly dispersed in the SiO2 aerogels; On the other hand, if the oxidation temperature is selected properly, the N-doped TiO2−xNx@SiO2 aerogel can be obtained by simple TiN@SiO2 aerogel oxidation.

Herein, we fabricated a series of bimetallic Pt-Ni catalysts supported on mesoporous silica nanorods ( m SNR, specific BET surface area of 1802 m 2 g −1 ) to study the effect of Ni/Pt ratio on the product selectivity in CO 2 hydrogenation. Both monometallic Pt/ m SNR and Ni 50 Pt 50 / m SNR catalysts revealed negligible methane selectivity. However, methane became the major product only when increasing the Ni/Pt ratio up to 9. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) characterizations showed that the Pt/Ni ratio on the catalyst surface was appreciably higher than the bulk composition, suggesting the enrichment of Pt on the surface ( e.g. , Pt/Ni of 61/39 for Ni 50 Pt 50 / m SNR catalyst). The Pt/Ni ratio was crucial in determining the CH 4 /CO selectivity, and the addition of a tiny amount of Pt could improve the catalytic performance and stability of Ni/ m SNR. Among the different catalysts, Ni 98 Pt 2 / m SNR showed the best CO 2 conversion (59%) and CH 4 selectivity (96%) at 400 °C, 0.1 MPa, 9600 mL h −1 g cat −1 , and H 2 /CO 2 of 3. In-situ DRIFTS and temperature-programmed surface experiments suggested that the dissociated adsorption of CO 2 on the Pt site led to CO*, but the strongly adsorbed CO* cannot be further hydrogenated to CH 4 over the Pt site. In contrast, CO* could be further hydrogenated into CH 4 via CH x O* intermediates on adjacent Ni sites.

Fluorescent immunochromatographic test (FICT) strips have received extensive attention due to their virtue of simple operation, low cost, and a point-of-care (POC) assay. In recent years, people are constantly seeking new labels to improve the sensitivity of immunosensors. Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) possess strong fluorescence and a narrow emission peak, making them an excellent choice as a new fluorescent signal label. Herein, we have developed a simple, fast, and environmentally friendly method to synthesize CsPbBr 3 /CsPb 2 Br 5 @SiO 2 with the good water stability and high biocompatibility. These CsPbBr 3 /CsPb 2 Br 5 @SiO 2 have been applied to construct FICT strips. To achieve the quantitative determination of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a lab-made FICT strips detection system was established. The FICT strips had a good linear relationship to HCG in the range of 5–500 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 2.09 ng/mL. In addition, the recovery results of HCG detection in human urine samples also proved the feasibility of this FICT strips. CsPbBr 3 /CsPb 2 Br 5 @SiO 2 can also be modified with different biomarkers for functionalization, which exhibits a promising application in the development of sensing platform of FICT strips.

An ultrasensitive portable electrochemical immunosensor for human immunodeficiency virus p24 (HIV p24) antigen detection has been developed, whereby the detection sensitivity was 1000 times higher than that of the ELISA method. Firstly, a novel HRP enzyme–antibody copolymer (EV-p24 Ab2) was synthesized through an EnVision regent (EV, a dextrin amine skeleton anchoring more than 100 molecules of HRP and 15 molecules of anti IgG), then incubated in the secondary antibody of p24. Secondly, the copolymer was immobilized on the gold nanocolloids (AuNPs) to fabricate a novel signal tag (AuNPs/EV-p24 Ab2). Subsequently, a sandwich-type immunoreaction would take place between the capture probe (silicon dioxide-coated magnetic Fe3O4nanoparticles (MNPs) labeled with the primary p24 antibody (MNPs-p24 Ab1)), p24 (different concentrations) and the signal tag [AuNPs/EV-p24 Ab2)] to form the immunocomplex. Finally, the immunocomplex was absorbed on the surface of screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) by a magnet and immersed in the o-hydroxyl phenol (HQ) and H2O2. The large amounts of HRP on the signal tag can catalyze the oxidation of HQ by H2O2, which can induce an amplified reductive current. Moreover, the capture probe could improve the accumulation ability of p24 and facilitate its separation from the substrate through the magnet. Under optimal conditions, the proposed immunoassay exhibited good sensitivity to p24 within a certain concentration range from 0.001 to 10.00 ng/mL, with a detection limit of 0.5 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The proposed method can be used for real-time and early detection of HIV-infected people.

Novel, efficient and environmentally friendly approaches have been developed for the synthesis of 1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates by one-pot three-component domino reactions in the presence of a catalytic amount of γ-Fe 2 O 3 @SiO 2 /Ce(OTf) 3 in EtOH at ambient temperature. A total of 32 2,5-dihydro-1 H -1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates and 2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1 H -1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates with enamine or imine structure of the heterocycle, respectively, were obtained in good yields by reacting substituted 1,2-phenylenediamine, β-carbonyl esters, and ethyl glyoxylate or ethyl pyruvate. One-pot reactions were successfully realized to form one new cycle and four new bonds (one C–C, two C–N, one C=C or two C–C, one C–N, one C=N). Furthermore, plausible mechanisms for the formation of 1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates have been proposed. The salient features of this reaction include short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, moderate to excellent yields, recyclability of the catalyst, and wide substrate scope.

Herein, SiO 2 nanoparticle-based superhydrophobic spray was prepared by a simple and scalable methodology. A variety of superhydrophobic materials were fabricated by facile spraying process consequently. The as-prepared superhydrophobic surfaces exhibit excellent repellent universality. More importantly, the superhydrophobic coatings on substrate surfaces have high transparency and they don’t have adverse impact on light transmission. Meanwhile, the as-prepared superhydrophobic materials show outstanding self-cleaning and anti-adhesion performance, excellent durability and stability upon various harsh conditions as acid, alkali, various solvents, long time of UV irradiation and outdoor placement. In addition, the superhydrophobic fabrics demonstrate excellent ability in oil-water separation with high efficiency. Thereupon, this simple and environment-friendly methodology might be used to prepare high-performance superhydrophobic materials, and it is expected to be applied in a wide range.

In this study, the enhancement mechanism of SiO 2 modified by different silane coupling agents (SCA) on the moisture resistance, thermal properties and electrical insulation properties of epoxy resin (EP) composites is discussed. Through the combination of experimental tests and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, the performance differences of five systems (EP, SiO 2 -EP, KH550 / SiO 2 -EP, KH560 / SiO 2 -EP, KH570 / SiO 2 -EP) in water absorption, glass transition temperature ( T g ) and volume resistivity are analyzed. The changes of free volume fraction (FFV), interaction energy, number of hydrogen bonds and diffusion behavior of water molecules are revealed from the microscopic point of view. The experimental results show that the introduction of modified SiO 2 significantly improves the moisture resistance, thermal properties and electrical properties of EP. Among them, KH550 modified SiO 2 has the best effect, T g increases by 12.3 %, volume resistivity increases by 22.1 %, and water absorption rate decreases by 21.9 % at 60 °C. MD simulations further confirm that the nano-SiO 2 modified by SCA can effectively limit the diffusion of water molecules and reduce the effect of temperature on the mean square displacement (MSD) of the system. The KH550 / SiO 2 -EP system has the smallest free volume and the highest number of hydrogen bonds, which effectively inhibits the diffusion of water molecules and the movement of molecular chains. This study provides a theoretical basis and material design strategy for the application of epoxy composites in hygrothermal environments.
