A Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst (TiO 2 (B)/BiOCl 0.7 I 0.3 -P) was constructed (B: bronze phase; BiOCl 0.7 I 0.3 : a solid solution of BiOCl and BiOI in a molar ratio of 7:3; P: polyvinylpyrrolidone). The open channels parallel to the b-axis between the axial oxygen atoms in the bronze TiO 2 , the unique layered structure of BiOCl and the excellent light absorption characteristics of BiOI create excellent conditions for the absorption and utilization of light, the separation and transmission of photo-generated carriers in the photocatalytic process. TiO 2 (B)/BiOCl 0.7 I 0.3 -P can almost completely degrade and mineralize fomesafen within 20 min, and the environmental toxicity of the degradation products is significantly reduced. Combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry, the degradation pathway of fomesafen was proposed. In addition, TiO 2 (B)/BiOCl 0.7 I 0.3 -P can also quickly and effectively degrade phenol and acetaminophen, indicating that it has good universality. To eliminate the harm caused by various herbicides to the ecological environment, photocatalytic technology will play an increasingly important role.

Flexible and hierarchical nanostructured Pd/SiO2-TiO2 nanofibrous catalytic membranes were fabricated via combining electrospinning technique and a two-step hydrothermal method. The size and distribution of TiO2 nanorods immobilised on SiO2 nanofibrous membranes can be regulated via adjusting the dosage of TiCl3 solution in the first step hydrothermal process. When using an optimal TiCl3 solution dosage of 0.2 mL, a hierarchical structured Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2 nanofibrous catalytic membrane with uniformly dense TiO2 nanorods loaded on SiO2 nanofibers is obtained, and still shows good tensile strength and flexibility. The catalytic activity of Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2 increases 5 times as compared to Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0 in the reduction of p-nitrophenol (PNP) to p-aminophenol (PAP). The modification with TiO2 nanorods can provide more surface areas for loading the Pd nanoparticles, thereby increased active sites. The three-dimensional open-cell network stacked and assembled by thousands of SiO2 nanofibers and TiO2 nanorods enhances the contact between the reactants and Pd nanoparticles. Both aspects contribute the superior catalytic activity of Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2. Furthermore, a continuous and complete conversion of PNP to PAP can be stably operated over 240 min in a gravity-driven catalytic membrane reactor constructed by Pd/SiO2-TiO2-0.2.

In this study, a novel electrochromic hydrogel AG/P(AAm-AAc)/P 2 W 18 was prepared by loading polyoxometalate K 6 P 2 W 18 ·10H 2 O (P 2 W 18 ) into a double-network hydrogel formed with agar (AG) and copolymer of polyacrylamide (PAAm) and polyacrylic acid (PAAc). The mechanical properties of hydrogels can be tuned by adjusting the proportion of PAAc in the copolymer P(AAm-AAc). Electrochromic hydrogel shows the best mechanical properties when the proportion of PAAc is 10 % (AG/P(AAm-AAc)-10/P 2 W 18 ), and the maximum elongation at break and the fracture stress are about 2.0 and 2.5 times higher than that of pure PAAm. P 2 W 18 gives good electrochromic properties to the hydrogels without the addition of electrolytes. Under the external voltage, the electrochromic hydrogel changes from colorless to blue with the optical contrast up to 65.54 % at 700 nm. The electrochromic device based on this hydrogel is simple in structure, easy to manufacture and highly stretchable, which has good application potential in the field of wearable electronics.

A self-powered ultraviolet photodetector (UV PD) effectively utilizes UV energy and has attracted greatly attention due to its no consuming of any external power. In this work, TiO 2 nanoarrays (NRs) were synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal method, which was combined with P(TTh-co-EDOT) to realize a high-performance p-n heterojunction UV PD, and P(TTh-co-EDOT) was evaluated as the photosensitive layers in UV PDs for the first time. Furthermore, the working mechanism for the self-powered of UV PD was discussed in detail based on the energy band theory. Different electrochemical deposition cycles of TTh-co-EDOT on the surface of TiO 2 NRs were applied to form p-n heterojunction for achieving the optimum photoelectric performance. Among them, it was found that the optimum UV PD based on face-to-face fabrication of TiO 2 NRs and P(TTh-co-EDOT) from 3 deposition cycles exhibits an enhancement of photoelectric performance without applying any external voltage. Benefiting from the enhanced built-in electric field of the TiO 2 NRs/P(TTh-co-EDOT) interface, balancing photogenerated carriers and the charge separation and transport in self-power mode, the responsivity and detectivity of TiO 2 NRs/P(TTh-co-EDOT)-3C are 2.252 mA/W and 3.413 × 10 10 Jones, with the rise and fall times are 0.256/0.427 s, which exhibited excellent photoelectric properties and stability. TiO 2 NRs/P(TTh-co-EDOT)-1C has the lowest responsivity (0.0995 mA/W) and detectivity (6.035 × 10 9 Jones) and TiO 2 NRs/P(TTh-co-EDOT)-4C has the longest rise and fall times (0.460/0.451 s). These results suggest that the great potential of the TiO 2 NRs and P(TTh-co-EDOT) for high-performance UV PDs.

Seawater splitting is a compelling avenue to produce abundant hydrogen, which requires high-performance and cost-effective catalysts. Constructing bimetallic transition metal phosphides is a feasible strategy to meet the challenge. Here, an amorphous Co–Mo–P film supported on nickel foam (Co–Mo–P/NF) electrode is developed with bifunctional properties for both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline seawater. Corresponding results indicate that the introduction of Mo can improve the active sites and regulate the intrinsic activity. Such a Co–Mo–P/NF behaves with prominent electrocatalytic activity towards both HER and OER, demanding low overpotentials of 193 and 352 mV at 100 mA cm‒2 in alkaline seawater, respectively. Furthermore, the assembled electrolyzer demands a pronounced overall seawater splitting activity with a low cell voltage of 1.76 V to deliver 100 mA cm−2 presenting excellent durability without obvious attenuation after 24 h continuous stability test. This work expands the horizon to develop transition metal-phosphorus electrocatalysts with robust and efficient activity for overall seawater splitting.

Photocatalytic ozonation (PCO) was a novel water treatment method, but the low photo-generated electron ( e - ) utilization and ambiguous ROS formation mechanism restrained its performance. Herein, C vacancy and F co-decorated g-C 3 N 4 (FCN_Cv) was designed to accelerate the PCO performance with sodium p -perfluorinated nonoxybenzenesulfonate (OBS) acting as model pollutant. Comparative characterizations revealed that FCN_Cv remained the inherent structure of g-C 3 N 4 (BCN), and had an enhanced conduction band potential, narrower band gap and longer e - lifetime. FCN_Cv exhibited the greater activity over BCN, with 99.3 % OBS removal in 30 min but only 78.3 % for BCN during PCO process. •OH was the main ROS for degrading OBS. The greater •OH yield was obtained by FCN_Cv PCO process because of the increase of e - utilization. On one hand, the two electrons reduction of O 2 into H 2 O 2 on FCN_Cv was accelerated, which triggered the peroxone reaction between photogenerated-H 2 O 2 and O 3 . On the other hand, the direct one electron reduction of O 3 by e - also accounted for •OH generation. 17 kinds of intermediates were detected and the OBS degradation routes were inferred, which was involved with hydroxylation, C-O cleavage and aromatic ring opening reactions. Overall, this study demonstrated the feasibility of decorating F element and C vacancy on g-C 3 N 4 in enhancing e - utilization and •OH generation during PCO process as well as deepened the understanding of fate of OBS in PCO process.

To improve CdS photocatalytic activity , both Cu x Cd 1- x S nanorods and Cu 2 S@CdS p-n heterostructures have been prepared with a simple solvothermal method . The results showed that the maximum H 2 generation rate is equal to 10 mmol h −1 g −1 and 12.1 mmol h −1 g −1 for samples 0.3-Cu 2 S@CdS and Cu 0.1 Cd 0.9 S, respectively, which are nearly 9 and 12 times larger than that of CdS (1.2 mmol h −1 g −1 ) without using Pt as the co-catalyst. The measurements of the light absorption revealed that the samples Cu 2 S@CdS p-n heterostructures and Cu x Cd 1- x S nanorods have an increased visible light absorption. Band structure revealed that Cu 2 S@CdS p-n composite is a type-II heterostructure, which facilitates the separation of photoexcited charge carriers . Furthermore, as the Cu-doping CdS introduced a defect level , which induced the increase of carrier density, and the defect energy level in Cu 0.1 Cd 0.9 S and the band energy in CdS form a type-II heterostructure. Due to the appropriate band structure and stronger light absorption, Cu 2 S@CdS p-n heterostructures and Cu + -doping CdS demonstrated an improved photocatalytic activity and stability.

Background The selective recognition of drugs and its metabolism or decomposition products is significant to drug development and drug resistance research. Fluorescence-based techniques provide satisfying sensitivity by target-triggered chemical reaction. However, the interference from the matrix or additives usually restricts the specific detection. It is highly desirable to explore specific chemical reactions for achieving selective perception of these species. Results We report a specific m -aminophenol (MAP)-dopamine (DA) reaction, which generates highly fluorescent azamonardine-like products. Based on this reaction, fluorometric and indirect detection of p -aminosalicylic acid (typical antituberculosis drug , PAS) can be realized using the DA-based probe with high sensitivity. The acid induces the decarboxylation of PAS and produces MAP, which reacts with DA and generates fluorescent azamonardine-like products. The practical application of the proposed method is validated by the accurate PAS analysis in urine samples and Pasinazid tablets. Interestingly, none of additives in the Pasinazid tablets contribute comparable fluorescence variation. Significance This work discovers a new MAP-DA reaction for the first time, it not only explores sensitive PAS drug detection probe, but also demonstrates the feasibility of the development of novel drug analysis platform by recognizing decomposition product with specific reaction. Thus, new avenues for the exploration of simple and rapid spectrophotometric probes toward various drug analytes with high specify and sensitivity based on this tactic might be possible in analytical and drug-related fields.

A new type of flame-retardant polyether diols containing phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur (SPAE) was first synthesized by using phosphoryl chloride, 2-aminobenzothiazole and ethylene glycol . The SPAE as the soft segment was then utilized to prepare a series of flame-retardant waterborne polyurethanes (SPAE-WPU) through emulsion polymerization . Subsequently, SFR-WPU as a finishing agent was coated on polyamide fabric. When the content of SPAE-WPU was 18 wt%, the coated fabric exhibited a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 28.2 %, afterflame time of 4.6 s, afterglow time of 0 s and damaged length of 11.2 cm, respectively. After 10 washes, the coated fabric retained its good flame-retardancy and anti-dripping properties. Furthermore, the flame-retardant mechanism of SPAE-WPU was investigated using various spectral analyses, which revealed that the P, N and S elements worked together to create non-combustible gas compounds, release free radicals, and promote dehydration and carbonization , leading to synergistic flame-retardant effects in both gas- and condensed-phase.

Straw biochar loaded zero-valent iron nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method using agricultural waste straw biochar as a carrier for the removal of p-nitrophenol (PNP) by activated sodium persulfate (PS). The physicochemical properties of BC@nZVI were characterized using SEM, EDS, FTIR, BET, and RAMAN. The effects of PS concentration, catalyst concentration, initial pH, coexisting anions, and different activation systems on the degradation of PNP were investigated. The results showed that the best activation effect was exhibited at pH= 7, BC@nZVI dosage of 2 g/L, and PS concentration of 1 mM, and the removal of 40 mg/L PNP reached 91.7 % in 10 min. The high concentration of PS (4 mM) triggered free radical competition to inhibit the degradation, and the removal rate was only 74.5 % at 1 mM. In addition, bicarbonate ions (0–20 M) had a significant inhibitory effect on this system. Electron spin resonance (ESR) demonstrated that SO 4 ⋅ − and·OH were the major radicals, and SO 4 ⋅ − was preferentially generated. The intermediate products were identified by LC-MS, XRD and XPS characterization, which showed that adsorption and redox were the main degradation mechanisms, with p-benzoquinone was the oxidized product and substances such as 4-heptanone and propionic acid were the reduced products. This study proves that BC@nZVI activated PS is an efficient and excellent means of removing PNP and a good way to reuse agricultural waste.

Electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is receiving increasing attention as an effective process to produce clean energy. The commonly used precious metal catalysts can be hybridized with semiconductors to form heterostructures for the improvement of catalytic efficiency and reduction of cost. It will be promising to further improve the efficiency of heterostructure-based nanocatalysts in electrocatalytic and photocatalytic HER using a simple and effective method. Herein, we improve the efficiency of Au/TiO2 in electrocatalytic and photo-electrocatalytic HER by selectively adsorbing p-aminothiophenol (PATP) molecules. The PATP molecules are adsorbed on the gold surface by using a simple solution-based method and favor the charge separation at the Au–TiO2 interface. We also compare the PATP molecules with other thiophenol molecules in the enhancement of electrocatalytic HER. The PATP-induced enhancement in electrocatalysis is then further investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and this enhancement is attributed to a reduction in Gibbs energy of adsorbed hydrogen after surface adsorption of PATP molecules. This work provides a simple, cost-effective, and highly efficient approach to improve the electrocatalytic and photo-electrocatalytic efficiency of Au/TiO2, and this approach could be easily extended to other heterostructure-based nanocatalysts for performance enhancement and may be used in many other catalytic reactions.

Although metal oxides based gas sensors have been researched extensively in previous works, there are enormous challenges on improving the deficiencies in poor selectivity, sensitivity, humidity resistance and so on. Hence, we developed an epitaxial growth method to prepare dendritic Co 3 O 4 /In 2 O 3 -(1−3) heterostructures of distinct Co/In mass ratios through perfect lattice matching between the two crystal domains at the interface, along with introducing large amounts of oxygen vacancies . As a result, the Co 3 O 4 /In 2 O 3 -2 heterostructure based gas sensor showed enhanced sensing properties towards triethylamine (TEA, 100 ppm) with a high response value of Ra/Rg = 576.1 at an optimal working temperature of 200 °C, which is 93 times higher than that of pristine In 2 O 3 . Moreover, the Co 3 O 4 /In 2 O 3 -2 sensor exhibited excellent gas selectivity, quick recovery time, repeatable cycling, long-term stability, as well as outstanding humidity resistance. The improved TEA gas sensing performance can be attributed to the integration of interfacial synergies in Co 3 O 4 /In 2 O 3 p-n heterostructure and generation of rich oxygen vacancies, exposing more active sites to facilitate the adsorption/desorption of gas molecules. This work provides a feasible pathway to regulate TEA sensing performance of metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors by capitalizing on self-sacrificial template strategy and reconstruction of novel metal oxide heterostructure.
