Abstract
In this article, the rapid synthesis of colloidal, spherical polymer resins via enhanced copolymerization and polycondensation of resorcinol with formaldehyde is presented. The ultrasound-mediated technique assembles perfectly spherical resins in less than 5 min due to generated active species and free radicals produced in an aqueous ammonia-ethanol-water solvent. In this report, numerous controlled experiments account for and support the important role of high intensity ultrasounds in the rapid cluster formation, condensation, and gelation process of resorcinol with formaldehyde in the presence of ammonia catalyst. After a controlled heat treatment process, amorphous carbon spheres are obtained from these spherical polymer resins. The effect of temperature (up to 1100 °C) on the structural evolution of these carbon spheres is meticulously studied which is lacking in the previous literature. The resorcinol-formaldehyde resins carbonized at 600 and 900 °C demonstrate BET surface areas of 592.4 m(2)/g and 952.5 m(2)/g with specific capacitances of 17.5, and 33.5 F/g (scan rate of 5 mV/s), respectively.

Abstract
The major challenges in practically utilising the immense potential benefits of nanomaterials are controlling aggregation, recycling the nanomaterials, and fabricating well-defined nanoparticulate materials using innovative methods. We present a novel innovative synthetic strategy for core–shell bimetallic nanoparticles that are well-defined, ligand-free, and robustly fixed on the outermost surface of recyclable magnetic silica microspheres. The strategy includes seeding, coalescing the seeds to cores, and then growing shells from the cores on aminopropyl-functionalised silica microspheres so that the cores and aminopropyl moieties are robustly embedded in the shell materials. The representative Au–Ag bimetallic nanoparticles fixed on the microsphere showed excellent catalytic performance that remained consistent during repeated catalytic cycles.

Abstract
Merging nanoparticles with different functions into a single microsphere can exhibit profound impact on various applications. However, retaining the unique properties of each component after integration has proven to be a significant challenge. Our previous research demonstrated a facile method to incorporate magnetic nanoparticles into porous silica microspheres. Here, we report the fabrication of porous silica microspheres embedded with magnetic and gold nanoparticles as magnetic recoverable catalysts. The as-prepared multifunctional composite microspheres exhibit excellent magnetic and catalytic properties and a well-defined structure such as uniform size, high surface area, and large pore volume. As a result, the very little composite microspheres show high performance in catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol, special convenient magnetic separability, long life, and good reusability. The unique nanostructure makes the microspheres a novel stable and highly efficient catalyst system for various catalytic industry processes.

Abstract
In this work, maltodextrin-modified magnetic microspheres Fe3O4@SiO2-Maltodextrin (Fe3O4@SiO2-MD) with uniform size and fine morphology were synthesized through a facile and low-cost method. As the maltodextrins on the surface of microspheres were combined with maltose binding proteins (MBP), the magnetic microspheres could be applied to enriching standard MBP fused proteins. Then, the application of Fe3O4@SiO2-MD in one-step purification and immobilization of MBP fused proteins was demonstrated. For the model protein we examined, Fe3O4@SiO2-MD showed excellent binding selectivity and capacity against other Escherichia coli proteins in the crude cell lysate. Additionally, the maltodextrin-modified magnetic microspheres can be recycled for several times without significant loss of binding capacity.

Abstract
The onset of Soret-driven convection in a horizontal layer of a colloidal suspension is investigated by considering a particulate medium model. We consider a dilute suspension of spherical solid particles being subjected to convection in a Rayleigh-Bénard geometry setup. The mathematical model takes into account the effects of thermophoresis, particle sedimentation, and Brownian diffusion. The equations governing the convective motion consist of the momentum equation which includes an extra body force term to account for the thermophoretic force effect, the conservation of particles equation whose mass-flux term couples the Soret and particle diffusion effects and whose advective term includes the sedimentation force, and the heat and mass balance equations. The horizontal boundaries are assumed rigid, perfectly thermally conducting, and impervious to mass flow. Furthermore, the model makes use of the effective viscosity of the suspension whose dependence on the particle concentration is through Einstein's formula. Moreover, we take into account the decrease of both the coefficient of Brownian diffusion and the mixture thermal diffusion with particle concentration due to the particles hindrance effect. The nondimensionalization leads to the emergence of an experimental parameter, β, which depicts the competition between the effects of thermophoresis, sedimentation, and particle diffusion. The parameter β is a function of the particles radius, the shape of which is an inverted parabola having two zeros. A combination of asymptotic and numerical computations is used to determine the threshold for the onset of the mass dominated convection, which corresponds to 0<β≪1. Our findings shed light on the role of particle sedimentation and particle size, as well as the influence of other processing variables on the fluid instability.

Abstract
Hierarchical porous Fe3O4 particles with tunable grain size were synthesized based on a facile poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA)-modulated solvothermal method. The products were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption technique, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The results show that increasing the PDDA dosage decrease the grain size and particle size, which increased the particle porosity and enhanced the surface area from 7.05 to 32.75 m(2) g(-1). Possible mechanism can be ascribed to the PDDA function on capping the crystal surface and promoting the viscosity of reaction medium to mediate the growth and assembly of grain. Furthermore, the arsenic adsorption application of the as-obtained Fe3O4 samples was investigated and the adsorption mechanism was proposed. High magnetic Fe3O4 particles with increased surface area display improved arsenic adsorption performance, superior efficiency in low-level arsenic removal, high desorption efficiency, and satisfactory magnetic recyclability, which are very promising compared with commercial Fe3O4 particles.

Abstract
Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MIONs) bearing amine and vinyl groups are fabricated straightforwardly using vinyl-based tertiary amine molecules as both alkaline source and ligands based on the coprecipitation of iron ions in aqueous solution. The as-prepared MIONs present amphiphilic performance that can be well-dispersed both in aqueous solution and common organic solvents (e.g., ethanol, dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements reveal that the MIONs are superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles with a mean diameter below 10 nm. The presence of ligands on the surface of MIONs was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterizations. Benefiting from the surface vinyl groups, the MIONs are able to graft polyvinyl-based polymers by in situ polymerization of the corresponding vinyl monomers as confirmed by grafting poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in this paper. On the basis of their surface amine groups, the MIONs show high adsorption capacity (ca. 0.42 mmol/g) for congo red dye and excellent performance for in situ growth of Pt nanocatalyst. Moreover, the MIONs possess high stability and can be reused several times without obvious decrease of their adsorption capacity and catalytic efficiency. Considering the facile fabrication process and versatile performance of the obtained MIONs, this work may open up new opportunities for the large-scale applications of MIONs.

Abstract
A simple and facile approach was developed to fabricate raspberry-like or snowman-like particles via seeded dispersion polymerization by just changing the ratio of second monomer styrene (St) to seeds in which poly(styrene-co-hydrolyzed-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane) [P(St-co-MPS)] latex was used as seeds with hydrolyzed-MPS as a cross-linking agent. The morphologies of final products were confirmed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Interestingly, the seed part of snowman-like particles showed raspberry-like with adsorbing quantities of PS particles while the other part smooth. The formation mechanism of the raspberry-like particles was also discussed. The superhydrophobic surface with both the static contact angle of 158° and high adhesion to water could be achieved by the hydrophobization of the particulate film with octadecyltrimethoxysilane that was formed from the raspberry-like particles decorated by a thin layer of silica nanoparticles. Further, through encapsulating Ag nanoparticles within the surface, the obtained raspberry-like PS/Ag/SiO2 nanocomposite particles exhibited excellent antibacterial property simultaneously.

Abstract
In this work, a facile approach was successfully developed for in situ catalyzing Au nanoparticles loaded on Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanospheres via Sn(2+) linkage and reduction. After the Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs were first prepared via a sol-gel process, only one step was needed to synthesize the Fe3O4@SiO2-Au magnetic nanocomposites (Fe3O4@SiO2-Au MNCs), so that both the synthesis step and the reaction cost were remarkably decreased. Significantly, the as-synthesized Fe3O4@SiO2-Au MNCs showed high performance in the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol and could be reused for several cycles with convenient magnetic separability. This approach provided a useful platform based on Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs for the fabrication of Au or other noble metal magnetic nanocatalysts, which would be very useful in various catalytic reductions.

Abstract
An antioxidant microgel with both glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities is reported. Using computational design and genetic engineering methods, the main catalytic components of GPx are fabricated onto the surface of ferritin. The resulting seleno-ferritin (Se-Fn) monomers can self-assemble into nanocomposites that exhibit remarkable GPx activity due to the well organized multi-GPx catalytic centers. Subsequently, a porphyrin derivative is synthesized as an SOD mimic, and is employed to construct a synergistic dual enzyme system by crosslinking Se-Fn nanocomposites into a microgel. Significantly, this dual enzyme microgel is demonstrated to display better antioxidant ability than single GPx or SOD mimics in protecting cells from oxidative damage.

Abstract
This paper describes a straightforward approach for the synthesis of hybrid materials composed of titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) colloidal spheres decorated with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). In the reported method, monodisperse TiO(2) colloidal spheres (∼220 nm in diameter) could be directly employed as templates for the nucleation and growth of Au NPs over their surface using AuCl(4)(-)(aq) as the Au precursor, ascorbic acid as the reducing agent, PVP as the stabilizer, and water as the solvent. The Au NPs presented a uniform distribution over the TiO(2) surface. Interestingly, the size of the Au NPs could be controlled by performing sequential reduction steps with AuCl(4)(-)(aq). This method could also be adapted for the production of TiO(2) colloidal spheres decorated with other metal NPs including silver (Ag), palladium (Pd), and platinum (Pt). The catalytic activities of the TiO(2)-Au materials as a function of composition and NPs size were investigated toward the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol under ambient conditions. An increase of up to 10.3-fold was observed for TiO(2)-Au relative to TiO(2). A surface-enhanced Raman scattering application for TiO(2)-Au was also demonstrated employing 4-mercaptopyridine as the probe molecule. The results presented herein indicate that our approach may serve as a platform for the synthesis of hybrid materials containing TiO(2) and metal NPs displaying well-defined morphologies, compositions, and sizes. This can have important implications for the design of TiO(2)-based materials with improved performances for photocatalysis and photovoltaic applications.

Abstract
Inorganic hybrid nanostructures containing two or more nanocomponents have been emerging in many areas of materials science in recent years. The particle-particle interactions in a hybrid particle system could significantly improve existing local electronic structure and induce tunable physiochemical responses. The current work reviews the diverse inorganic hybrid nanostructures formed by adhesion of the different single components via seed-mediated method. The hybrid nanomaterials have great potentials for real applications in many other fields. The nanohybrids have been used as efficient heterocatalysts for carbon monoxide conversion and photodegradation of organic contaminants. The enhanced catalytic activity of these hybrid nanocatalysts could be attributed the formation of oxygen vacancies and electron transfer across the structural junction in a hybrid system as a result of the interfacial particle-particle interactions. The synergistic combination of up-converting and semiconducting properties in an up-converting semiconducting hybrid particle results in appearance of sub-band-gap photoconductivity. This behavior has a great significance for the design of photovoltaic devices for effective solar energy conversion. The functionalization and subsequent bioconjugation of the hybrid nanostructures to afford the multifunctional nanomedical platforms for simultaneous diagnosis and therapy are reviewed. The conjugated multifunctional hybrid nanostructures exhibit high biocompatibility and highly selective binding with functional groups-fabricated alive organs through delivering them to the tumor sites. The clever combinations of multifunctional features and antibody conjugation within these vehicles make them to generally offer new opportunities for clinical diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract
Recent advances in wet chemical synthesis of magnetically recyclable nanocatalysts (MRNCs), a versatile integration of high catalytic activity and facile recovery, have led to a dramatic expansion of their potential applications. This review focuses on the recent work in the development of metal and metal oxide based MRNCs for catalytic conversion of organic compounds in solution phase. This will be discussed in detail, according to the two main synthesis methods of MRNCs as classified by us. The two methods are: template-assisted synthetic strategy and direct synthetic strategy. And the template-assisted synthesis is further divided into three subcategories, synthetic strategies assisted by hard-, soft-, and mixed hard-soft coupling layers. At the end, we outline future trends and perspectives in these research areas.

Abstract
Raspberry-like colloidal polymer/magnetite/silica composite microspheres were rationally fabricated based on in situ growth or interfacial immobilization of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) onto the polymer matrices and the followed sol-gel coating process. Monodisperse cross-linked poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) microspheres were first prepared by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization, followed by surface modification of carboxyl or amine moieties through thiol-epoxy click chemistry. Then the carboxyl-modified microspheres were in situ decorated with MNPs through solvothermal process or chemical coprecipitation reaction. In parallel, incorporation of MNPs onto polymer matrices was also realized by the interaction of amine-modified polymer microspheres with carboxyl-capped MNPs based on the electrostatic interaction. The two pathways for synthesis of the composite microspheres decorated with MNPs were systematically investigated. Furthermore, the composite microspheres were coated with a thin layer of silica through a sol-gel process. The thus-produced magnetic composite microspheres with desirable magnetization (~23 emu/g) served as effective supports for high-payload plasmid DNA enrichment (~17 μg per mg of microspheres), much better than that of the commercial-available sample of SM1-015B (~12 μg per mg of SM1-015B), shedding lights on the potential advantages of the nanoplatforms for separation of bioactive entities.

Abstract
A nanoreactor with temperature-responsive poly(N-isopopylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) coated on the external pore mouth of mesoporous silica hollow spheres and Au nanoparticles at the internal pore mouth were fabricated. Such spatial separation allows both Au nanoparticles and PNIPAM to function without interfering with each other. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, and temperature-dependent optical transmittance curves demonstrate successful grafting of PNIPAM. This nanoreactor shows repeated on/off catalytic activity switched by temperature control. It shows excellent catalytic activity toward 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) reduction at 30 °C [below lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNIPAM] with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 14.8 h(-1). However, when the temperature was 50 °C (above LCST), the TOF dropped to 2.4 h(-1). Kinetic studies indicated that diffusion into the mesopores of the catalyst was the key factor, and the temperature-responsive behavior of PNIPAM was able to control this diffusion.

Abstract
Significant advances in colloidal synthesis made in the past two decades have enabled the preparation of high quality nanoparticles with well-controlled sizes, shapes, and compositions. It has recently been realized that such nanoparticles can be utilized as 'artificial atoms' for building new materials which not only combine the size- and shape-dependent properties of individual nanoparticles but also create new collective properties by taking advantage of their electromagnetic interactions. The controlled clustering of nanoparticle building blocks into defined geometric arrangements opens a new research area in materials science and as a result much interest has been paid to the creation of secondary structures of nanoparticles, either by direct solution growth or self-assembly methods. In this tutorial review, we introduce recently developed strategies for the creation and surface modification of colloidal nanoparticle clusters, demonstrate the new collective properties resulting from their secondary structures, and highlight several of their many important technological applications ranging from photonics, separation, and detection, to multimodal imaging, energy storage and transformation, and catalysis.
