In this study, Ag@SiO 2 core-shell nanoparticles were synthesized using the Stöber method and then physically mixing with MPS functionalized poly (styrene-co-acrylate) (PSA) emulsion to obtain a novel antibacterial composite material (PSA/Ag@SiO 2 ). The dispersion of composite latexes was improved by the formation of Si-O-Si covalent bonds , and the migration of AgNPs on the surface of composite films enhanced their antimicrobial activity. Analysis of UV-Vis absorption spectra , TEM images, XPS and XRD data confirmed the core-shell structure of Ag@SiO 2 and the successful coating of AgNPs by SiO 2 . TEM micrographs showed that Ag@SiO 2 core-shell nanoparticles were uniformly dispersed in the composite latexes, with an average particle size of 198 nm for PSA/Ag@SiO 2 composite latexes, larger than that of PSA latexes (162 nm). FTIR spectra also indicated the presence of Si-O-Si covalent bonds resulting from the sol-gel reaction between MPS functionalized PSA with Ag@SiO 2 . XPS and WCA characterization revealed the disruption of the core-shell structure of Ag@SiO 2, leading to the migration of AgNPs to the air-film interface. The results of antibacterial activity demonstrated that PSA/Ag@SiO 2 composite films displayed antibacterial activity against both E. coli and S. aureus , and the former displayer a slightly better antibacterial activity than the latter. The water-based acrylic polymer coatings with antibacterial properties explored in current work have various applications in wood paints, varnishes, metal protection, decorative systems and other related fields.

In the present study, a novel self-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor which combined self-enhanced ECL composite as signal response element and aptamer as the specific recognition element was firstly proposed for the sensitive and selective detection of Hg 2+ . Innovatively, the luminophore Ru(bpy) 3 2+ -doped silica nanoparticles functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (NH 2 – [email protected] 2 ) and the co-reactant nitrogen doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) were bound together to form the self-enhanced ECL composite, NH 2 – [email protected] 2 -NGQDs, by electrostatic adsorption. Satisfactorily, high and stable luminous efficiency of NH 2 – [email protected] 2 -NGQDs was obtained benefited from the short electron transfer distance and low energy loss of self-enhanced-typal ECL composite. For the fabrication of the self-enhanced ECL aptasensor for Hg 2+ detection, the Hg 2+ aptamer, of which one end was connected to NH 2 – [email protected] 2 -NGQDs, and the other end was fixed on glass carbon electrode (GCE) surface through Au–S bond, was served as a bridge. Upon the addition of Hg 2+ , the aptamer was bent due to the formation of thymine-Hg 2+ -thymine (T-Hg 2+ -T) specific structure, which caused the self-enhanced ECL composite was close to the GCE surface. On this basis, a linearly enhanced ECL signal was acquired with the concentration of Hg 2+ in the range of 5.0 × 10 −11 M − 1.0 × 10 −6 M with excellent selectivity , repeatability and stability in 3 min for each assay. In addition, the proposed aptasensor showed satisfying accuracy and practicability for Hg 2+ analysis in tap and canal water verified by the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) method.

As a part of the fundamental study related to the reduction smelting of spent lithium-ion batteries and ocean polymetallic nodules based on MnO-SiO 2 slags, this work investigated the activity coefficient of NiO in SiO 2 -saturated MnO-SiO 2 slag and Al 2 O 3 -saturated MnO-SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 slag at 1623 K with controlled oxygen partial pressure levels of 10 −7 , 10 −6 , and 10 −5 Pa. Results showed that the solubility of nickel oxide in the slags increased with increasing oxygen partial pressure. The nickel in the MnO-SiO 2 slag and MnO-SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 slag existed as NiO under experimental conditions. The addition of Al 2 O 3 in the MnO-SiO 2 slag decreased the dissolution of nickel in the slag and increased the activity coefficient of NiO. Furthermore, the activity coefficient of NiO ( γ NiO ), which is solid NiO, in the SiO 2 saturated MnO-SiO 2 slag and Al 2 O 3 saturated MnO-SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 slag at 1623 K can be respectively calculated as γ NiO = 8.58 w (NiO) + 3.18 and γ NiO = 11.06 w (NiO) + 4.07, respectively, where w (NiO) is the NiO mass fraction in the slag.

SiO 2 and Eu 3+ -doped SiO 2 submicron rods were conveniently fabricated via a sol–gel process at room temperature. In this process, citric acid served as a unique structural modifier through hydrolysis of TEOS at alkaline condition to obtain the silica submicron rods. The morphology of the products was sensitive to the conditions, such as stirring, gelation time and the dropping speed of NH 4 OH. By sampling the products at different reaction times, we discussed the formation and growing mechanism of SiO 2 :Eu 3+ submicron rods in detail. The weak interactions between ammonium citrate crystals and silica species may be the reasons of the rods formation. The obtained silica submicron rods were 5–6 μm in length and 650–750 nm in width and there was no obvious change after doping. Under UV light excitation, the undoped silica submicron rods exhibited blue emission, which may be associated with defect centers in the structures of the products. The Eu 3+ -doped silica submicron rods exhibited red emission, which was due to the 4f→4f transition of Eu 3+ . The effect of different doping concentrations of Eu 3+ ions on the luminescence was investigated. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), Thermo-gravimetry Analysis (TGA), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and Photoluminescence spectrum.

The synthesis and properties of new hybrid core-shell nanoparticles SiO2-HPW12O40@Fe3O4/EN-MIL-101(Cr) are reported. These hybrid nanomaterials were synthesized by binding of Keggin-type heteropolyacid (HPA) on diamine-activated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles. The present work proposes an electroanalytical method for selective determination of losartan antihypertensive drug (LOS). Under optimal conditions, an electrochemical sensor was performed between the molecules in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (PBS) pH 6.0. Heterogeneous nanocatalysts can be easily separated from the reaction mixture using a magnet and used multiple times. The structure of the synthesized nanocatalyst was determined by various physicochemical techniques such as TEM, SEM, XRD, EDAX, TGA, and AFM.

Palladium metal nanoparticles have been applied to hydrodechlorination of chlorophenols in contaminated water using H 2 as a clean and sustainable reductant. However, there are two major challenges to widespread technology adoption which are the activity loss caused by nanoparticle aggregation and the difficulty of nanoparticle recovery. In this study, a synthesis of a core-shell structured catalyst with encapsulated Pd nanoparticles has been given and whose catalytic activity has been tested in hydrodechlorination of chlorophenols under 1 atm H 2 at room temperature. The catalyst material consists of a nonporous silica core decorated with Pd nanoparticles that are further encapsulated within an ordered mesoporous silica shell. Well-defined mesopores (2.4 nm) provide a physical barrier to prevent Pd nanoparticle (∼10 nm) movement, aggregation and detachment from the support into water. Compared with some supported Pd catalysts such as Pd/AC and Pd/Al 2 O 3, SiO 2 /Pd@m-SiO 2 exhibits higher catalytic performance. After 5 times of recycling, catalytic activity of SiO 2 /Pd@m-SiO 2 reduces slightly and this result confirms the good recyclability of SiO 2 /Pd@m-SiO 2 . The function of the mesoporous shell, preventing aggregation of active nanoparticles, suggests a promising general strategy of using metal nanoparticle catalysts for water purification and related aqueous-phase applications.

The high-temperature volatilization behavior of the SnO–SiO 2 and SnO–CaO–SiO 2 slag systems was studied by simultaneous thermal analysis. The volatilization characteristics of the two systems with different SnO contents and different heating rates were discussed, and the kinetic parameters, reaction mechanism, and thermodynamic parameters of the volatilization reaction of the slag system at high temperature were calculated. The results of thermal analysis show that the volatilization of tin slag at high temperature is related to the activity of SnO and the decomposition of stannous silicate in tin slag. The slag system has obvious volatilization effect when the content of SnO is more than 60% in the SnO–SiO 2 binary slag system. When CaO is added into the binary slag system, the volatilization of slag system becomes easier. The volatilization rate decreases with increasing heating rate. The volatilization kinetic parameters and mechanism functions of the SnO–SiO 2 and SnO–CaO–SiO 2 systems were calculated by Coats–Redfern and Achar–Brindley–Sharp–Wendworth methods. It is concluded that the volatilization of tin slag at high temperature is controlled by three-dimensional diffusion mechanism. The mechanism function is Jander equation with integral form of [1 − (1 − α ) 1/3 ] 2 and the differential form of 3/2(1 − α ) 2/3 [1 − (1 − α ) 1/3 ] −1 . The rate constants of the SnO–SiO 2 and SnO–CaO–SiO 2 systems are \(k\, = \,1.36\, \times \,10^{16} \,\exp \,\left( {{{ - \,61408.61} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{ - \,61408.61} T}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} T}} \right)\) and \(k\, = \,1.61\, \times \,10^{17} \,\exp \,\left( {{{ - \,64869.66} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{ - \,64869.66} T}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} T}} \right)\) , and the isokinetic temperatures are 1174.4 and 1208.3 °C, respectively. Finally, the thermodynamic parameters of the slag system in the high-temperature volatilization process are discussed. The activation enthalpy ΔH of the SnO–SiO 2 and SnO–CaO–SiO 2 systems is 498.33 and 526.96 kJ/mol, respectively. The activation Gibbs free energy ΔG is 436.56 and 433.87 kJ/mol, and the activation entropy ΔS is 42.66 and 62.84 J/(mol K), respectively. Graphical Abstract

The activity coefficient of CoO in SiO 2 -saturated MnO-SiO 2 slag was measured using metal-slag-gas equilibrium experiments under controlled oxygen potentials (10 −12 to 10 −10 atm) at 1623 K. The solubility of CoO in the slag increased with increasing oxygen potential and cobalt content in the alloy. The activity coefficient of cobalt oxide, γ CoO , referred to solid CoO, can be described as: γ CoO = 1.65 − 0.14 (wt pct CoO), where (wt pct CoO) represents the mass percent of CoO in the slag.

Tailorable synthesis of plasmon enhanced catalysts with high solar-light harvesting and energy-conversion efficiency has attracted wide interest due to its scientific and technological importance. In this paper, novel SiO2–Ag–SiO2–TiO2 multi-shell photocatalysts with wide-spectral-response were systematically designed and controllably synthesized, where the SiO2 spheres were used as the cores, and the SiO2 interlayers coated on the Ag nanoparticle (NP) shells were used to separate the Ag from the TiO2 shell. The structures of the SiO2–Ag–SiO2–TiO2 multi-shell photocatalysts can be tailored by changing the thickness of SiO2 interlayers from 1 to 2, 5, 8, 12, and 20 nm, while the anatase N-doped TiO2 shells with visible light response are maintained at a thickness of 20 nm. The photocatalytic activity tests show that the enhanced photocatalytic efficiency under both ultraviolet (UV) and visible light irradiation is related to the existence of Ag NP shells and the thickness of SiO2 interlayers. The complicated coupling mechanisms between TiO2 and a plasmon are systematically discussed, and a clear physical picture for the complicated coupling processes is presented. The main reasons for the enhancement of the photocatalytic activity of the SiO2–Ag–SiO2–TiO2 multi-shell structures are the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect and scattering effect induced by Ag NPs.

Joining is an indispensable process for expanding the application of ceramics and composites. Recently, glasses have been extensively explored for ceramic/composite joining owing to their unique functional needs. However, the difficulty in detecting amorphous materials and lack of enthalpy data make the interfacial reaction mechanism challenging to investigate. In this study, the interfacial reaction mechanism of joints of SiO 2f /SiO 2 composite-brazed bismuth glass was thoroughly explored. SiO 2 was dissolved from the matrix and used throughout the brazing process. In the initial stage, silica reacts with the brazing glass to form Bi 4 (SiO 4 ) 3 . Then, owing to the decomposition of Bi 4 (SiO 4 ) 3 , the silicate glass replaced the bismuth glass. Finally, some precipitation of SiO 2 occurred at the brazing seam owing to an entropy–enthalpy dominating mode. This study may instigate the design of brazing glasses for joining SiO 2f /SiO 2 composites.

Novel magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 and Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PEG-(COOH) 2 , were prepared by loading different amounts of SiO 2 or/and PEG-(COOH) 2 onto Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles, and their feasibility to be used as forward osmosis (FO) draw solutes was investigated. The characterization of the materials showed that, compared to normal Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles, the modified MNPs exhibited enhanced dispersity and high osmotic pressure in aqueous solution. The FO experiment indicated that the synthesized draw solutes could obtain a water flux as high as 10 L∙m −2 ·h −1 with an aquaporin FO membrane. The optimal concentration of the added tetraethyl orthosilicate was 30% during the synthesis. The novel MNPs could be easily recovered from draw solutions by magnetic field, and the recovery rate of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 and Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PEG-(COOH) 2 was 83.95% and 63.37%, respectively. Moreover, after 5 recycles of reuse, the water flux of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 and Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PEG-(COOH) 2 as draw solutes still remained 64.36% and 85.26%, respectively. The experimental results demonstrated that the synthesized core–shell magnetic nanoparticles are promising draw solutes, and the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PEG-(COOH) 2 was more suitable to be used as draw solute in FO process.

Superhydrophobic textiles based on cellulose, a key biological macromolecule, are highly desirable for applications in extreme environments. In this study, we develop a multifunctional cellulose-based cotton fabric ( Gossypium hirsutum L.) by applying a facile one-step hydrothermal coating method, integrating covalent organic frameworks (COFs), silica nanoparticles (SiO 2 ), and perfluorooctyltrichlorosilane (POTS) onto the fiber surface to form a robust CF-COF/SiO 2 /POTS composite coating. The hierarchical micro/nanostructure modifies the cellulose surface, achieving a water contact angle of 155.4 ± 0.9° and a sliding angle of 7.9 ± 0.7°. Modern analytical techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy, confirm the molecular interactions between cellulose and the coating, revealing enhanced surface stability. The coated cellulose fabric exhibits robust chemical stability across acidic (pH 2), alkaline (pH 12), and saline (1 mol/L NaCl) conditions, mechanical durability after 50 adhesion-peeling cycles, five laundering cycles, and 820 h of sunlight exposure, and effective anti-icing behavior with reduced ice adhesion and rapid superhydrophobicity recovery post-icing (−18 °C, 12 h) via mild heating (60 °C, 5 min). Notably, the fabric undergoes an irreversible color change under UV–visible irradiation (300–1100 nm, 133.4 mW/cm 2 ), with spectroscopic analyses indicating photochemical oxidation of hydroxyl groups, yet retaining superhydrophobicity. This work presents a novel strategy for functionalizing cellulose-based textiles, offering durable self-cleaning, anti-icing, and photochromic properties for applications in protective clothing, outdoor gear, and anti-counterfeiting systems.
