[PMID: 31035735 PMCID: PMC6539926 DOI: 10.3390/ma12091399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Revised: 04/18/2019] [Accepted: 04/24/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
The energy industry (nuclear, battery, mining industries, etc.) produces a large quantity of hazardous effluents that may contain radionuclides (137Cs and 90Sr in particular) and heavy metals. One of the hardest tasks of environmental safety and sustainable development is the purification of wastewater holding these pollutants. Adsorption is one of the most powerful methods for extracting toxic compounds from wastewater. This study reviews the usefulness of clay minerals as adsorbent for removing these hazardous elements to clean up energy production processes. Phyllosilicates are able to extract several heavy metals from effluent, as widely examined. A particular focus is given to synthetic phyllosilicates and their abilities to entrap heavy metals with a special attention paid to those synthesized by sol-gel route. Indeed, this method is attractive since it allows the development of organic–inorganic hybrids from organosilanes presenting various functions (amino, thiol, etc.) that can interact with pollutants. Regarding these pollutants, a part of this review focuses on the interaction of lamellar materials (natural and synthetic phyllosilicates as well as layered double hydroxide) with heavy metals and another part deals with the adsorption of specific radionuclides, cesium and strontium.

Abstract
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) generally suffers from low crystallization rate and long molding duration, which as a result limit its application as engineering plastics. To overcome these drawbacks, series of PET/layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared by a solution blending process. The effect of metal composition (MgAl and CaAl) and organo-modification (stearic acid intercalated) for LDH fillers on the crystallization behavior of the nanocomposites was investigated. It was revealed that, compared with PET/CaAl-LDH, the PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposite exhibits a higher crystallization temperature and faster crystallization rate, which is associated with the superior nucleation ability of MgAl-LDH. The nucleation mechanism of PET induced by LDHs was explored by means of Avrami equation and theory of Hoffman-Lauritzen, pointing out that the incorporation of LDHs reduce the free energy of nucleation and the fold surface free energy of PET. In order to improve the compatibility between LDH and PET, stearic acid (SA) intercalated MgAl-LDH was prepared and filled into PET matrix. The resultant PET/MgAl-LDH-SA shows a further enhanced crystallization temperature and accelerated crystallization rate, in comparison with PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposites. In addition, the thermal stability, gas barrier and mechanical properties of PET/LDH composites were improved upon incorporation of LDH fillers.

Abstract
Inorganic nanoparticles with tunable and diverse properties hold tremendous potential in the field of nanomedicine, while having non-negligible toxicity concerns in healthy tissues/organs that have resulted in their restricted clinical translation to date. In the past decade, the emergence of biodegradable or clearable inorganic nanoparticles has made it possible to completely solve this long-standing conundrum. A comprehensive understanding of the design of these inorganic nanoparticles with their metabolic performance in the body is of crucial importance to advance clinical trials and expand their biological applications in disease diagnosis. Here, a diverse variety of biodegradable or clearable inorganic nanoparticles regarding considerations of the size, morphology, surface chemistry, and doping strategy are highlighted. Their pharmacokinetics, pathways of metabolism in the body, and time required for excretion are discussed. Some inorganic materials intrinsically responsive to various conditions in the tumor microenvironment are also introduced. Finally, an overview of the encountered challenges is provided along with an outlook for applying these inorganic nanoparticles toward future clinical translations.

Highly stable enzyme-mimicking nanocomposite of antioxidant activity. J Colloid Interface Sci 2019; 543:174-182.

Abstract
A highly stable nanocomposite of antioxidant activity was developed by immobilization of a superoxide dismutase-mimicking metal complex on copolymer-functionalized nanoclay. The layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoclays were synthesized and surface modification was performed by adsorbing poly(vinylpyridine-b-methacrylic acid) (PVPMAA). The effect of the adsorption on the charging and aggregation properties was investigated and the copolymer dose was optimized to obtain stable LDH dispersions. The LDH-PVPMAA hybrid particles showed high resistance against salt-induced destabilization in aqueous dispersions. Copper(II)-histamine (Cu(Hsm)2) complexes were immobilized via the formation of dative bonds between the metal ions and the nitrogen atoms of the functional groups of the copolymer adsorbed on the particles. Changes in the coordination geometry of the complex upon immobilization led to higher superoxide radical anion scavenging activity than the one determined for the non-immobilized complex. Comparison of superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of the obtained hybrid LDH-PVPMAA-Cu(Hsm)2 with the nanoclay-immobilized SOD enzyme revealed that the developed composite maintained its activity over several days and was able to function at elevated temperature, while the immobilized native enzyme lost its activity under these experimental conditions. The developed nanocomposite is a promising antioxidant candidate in applications, where high electrolyte concentration and elevated temperature are applied.

Abstract
Exploring porous nano-structured materials has great significance for energy storage equipment. The metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be used as the outstanding sacrificial templates for electrode material of high performance supercapacitors due to their superior features that high specific surface area and tunable pore size distribution. However, the poor conductivity of MOFs is one of the biggest barriers to achieve high rate capacity and stable cycling performance. Herein, MOFs derived NiCo-layered double-hydroxide (NiCo-LDH) and nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheets (NC) on the flexible carbon nanotubes (CNTs) film are rationally designed, both of which as the binder-free electrodes can greatly improve the specific surface area and reaction sites. An asymmetric supercapacitor based on porous NiCo-LDH nanosheets on CNTs (CNT@NiCo-LDH) as the positive electrode and the NC nanosheets on carbon nanotubes film (CNT@NC) as the negative electrode exhibits the maximum energy density of 37.4 W h/kg at the power density of 750 W/kg, as well as a long-term cycling stability (94.5% capacity retention after 5000 cycles). Rationally design such combination is a meaningful process for energy storage equipment with excellent electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Sequential adsorption of polyelectrolytes on nanoparticles is a popular method to obtain thin films after deposition. However, the effect of polyelectrolyte multilayer formation on the colloidal stability of the nanoparticles has not been studied in detail. In the present work, layered double hydroxides (LDH) were synthesized and interaction with oppositely and like-charged polyelectrolytes was investigated. Electrophoretic and light scattering measurements revealed that colloidal stability of LDH can be tuned by adsorption of poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) on the oppositely charged LDH surface in appropriate doses and thus, unstable or stable dispersions can be designed. Negatively charged LDH of adsorbed PSS monolayer was obtained and a poly(diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) second layer was systematically built on the particles. The obtained polyelectrolyte bilayer provided high colloidal stability for the LDH-PSS-PDADMAC dispersions due to the presence of repulsive interparticle forces of electrostatic and steric origin. The results provide crucial quantitative information on designing highly stable particle-polyelectrolyte systems for the preparation of thin films or immobilization of guest substances between the layers for delivery processes.

Abstract
Polypyrrole nanofiber/Zn-Fe layered double hydroxide (Ppy NF/Zn-Fe LDH) was synthesized as nanocomposite of enhanced adsorption and photocatalytic properties. The formation of the composite was confirmed by XRD, FT-IR, HSEM, HRTEM, BET surface area and UV-vis spectrophotometer. Ppy NF/Zn-Fe LDH composite exhibits clear enhancing in the specific surface area and obvious reducing in the band gap energy (from 2.8 eV for Zn-Fe LDH to 2.31 eV for the composite). This was reflected in a considerable improvement in the adsorption capacity and photocatalytic removal of safranin dye. The adsorption capacity was enhanced by about 22% higher than Ppy NF and by 31% higher than Zn-Fe LDH. The photocatalytic removal was improved by 41.6% higher than Ppy NF and by about 54% higher than Zn-Fe LDH. The adsorption of safranin dye by the composite is chemisorption adsorption and occurs in a multilayer form. The complete photocatalytic removal of 5 mg/L of safranin dye can be achieved after 120 min illumination time using 0.05 g of the composite as photocatalyst and the best results can be obtained at neutral to alkaline conditions. Realistic application of the composite for the removal of dye from raw water samples revealed the applicability of the product for the purification of tap water, groundwater, and sewage water. Moreover, it can be used for six cycles of safranin dye removal from water. The photocatalytic degradation process appears to be controlled by the created hydroxyl radicals and formed photogenerated holes as the dominant active oxidizing radicals.

Abstract
Therapeutic nanocatalysis has emerged as an intriguing strategy for efficient cancer-specific therapy, but the traditional inorganic nanocatalysts suffer from low catalytic efficiency and difficulty in biodegradation, hindering their further clinical translation. Herein, a tumor microenvironment-triggered, biodegradable and biocompatible nanocatalyst employing 2D hydroxide nanosheet is presented, and is shown to have high catalytic capacity to efficiently produce abundant hydroxyl radicals under the tumor microenvironment and consequently kill tumor cells selectively. A polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated Fe2+-containing hydroxide nanosheet is successfully constructed via a facile but efficient bottom-up approach that concurrently realizes nanosheet synthesis and PEGylation. Importantly, the nanosheets are featured with high catalytic activity to disproportionate H2O2 in tumors, and consequently generate abundant hydroxyl radicals at a high reaction rate under tumorous acidic condition; the highly toxic hydroxyl radicals, as a result, cause the death of tumor cells in vitro and suppress the tumor growth in vivo without the use of any supplementary toxic agent, only with the biocompatible nanocatalysts. Meanwhile, the desirable biodegradation and biocompatibility of the hydroxide nanosheet render a high degree of safety to the organism. Therefore, this work provides the first paradigm of biodegradable 2D nanocatalytic platform with concurrently high catalytic-therapeutic performance and biosafety for efficient tumor-specific treatment.

Abstract
Water-based renewable energy cycle involved in water splitting, fuel cells, and metal-air batteries has been gaining increasing attention for sustainable generation and storage of energy. The major challenges in these technologies arise due to the poor kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the oxygen evolution reactions (OER), besides the high cost of the catalysts. Attempts to address these issues have led to the development of many novel and inexpensive catalysts as well as newer mechanistic insights, particularly so in the last three-four years when more catalysts have been investigated than ever before. With the growing emphasis on bifunctionality, that is, materials that can facilitate both reduction and evolution of oxygen, this review is intended to discuss all major families of ORR, OER, and bifunctional catalysts such as metals, alloys, oxides, other chalcogenides, pnictides, and metal-free materials developed during this period in a single platform, while also directing the readers to specific and detailed review articles dealing with each family. In addition, each section highlights the latest theoretical and experimental insights that may further improve ORR/OER performances. The bifunctional catalysts being sufficiently new, no consensus appears to have emerged about the efficiencies. Therefore, a statistical analysis of their performances by considering nearly all literature reports that have appeared in this period is presented. The current challenges in rational design of these catalysts as well as probable strategies to improve their performances are presented.

Abstract
The research on supercapacitors has been attractive due to their large power density, fast charge/discharge speed and long lifespan. The electrode materials for supercapacitors are thus intensively investigated to improve the electrochemical performances. Various transition metal layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with a hydrotalcite-like structure have been developed to be promising electrode materials. Earth-abundant metal hydroxides are very suitable electrode materials due to the low cost and high specific capacity. This is a review paper on NiMn LDHs for supercapacitor application. We focus particularly on the recent published papers using NiMn LDHs as electrode materials for supercapacitors. The preparation methods for NiMn LDHs are introduced first. Then, the structural design and chemical modification of NiMn LDH materials, as well as the composites and films derived from NiMn LDHs are discussed. These approaches are proven to be effective to enhance the performance of supercapacitor. Finally, the reports related to NiMn LDH-based asymmetric supercapacitors are summarized. A brief discussion of the future development of NiMn LDHs is also provided.

Abstract
Textile dyes pose a significant challenge for water pollution due to the poor degradability of their complex aromatic structures (e.g., RR-120 and RBB-150). In order to minimize the harmful effects of RR-120 and RBB-150, the capacity of MgAl-layered double hydroxide for removing of these contaminants was studied herein. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of various operating parameters, such as solution pH, contact time, dye concentration, and temperature in order to provide optimal conditions for removal. Structural and morphological analyses were used to highlight the assembly and/or interaction LDH-dye. The state of equilibrium of RR-120 and RBB-150 adsorption was pH- and temperature-dependent and followed the pseudo-second-order rate model. Also, the equilibrium adsorption data of both dyes were found to adopt the Langmuir type isotherm model, which assumes a monolayer arrangement in LDH-dye. Furthermore, the effects of four major coexisting and competing mono- and divalent interlayer anions, such as NO3-, Cl-, CO32-, and SO42-, on the uptakes of RR-120 and RBB-150 were studied and the results showed that NO3- anions had insignificant effect on the uptakes of RR-120 and RBB-150 by MgAl. An equivalent study on the presence of both dyes in competitive trial adsorption/desorption from binary aqueous solution was investigated. And finally, the reuse operation of recovered material after dye adsorption was tested in up to 5 cycles of recyclability.

Abstract
In this study a novel "yarn-in-tube" configuration was introduced by packing cotton yarn inside stainless steel cartridge named packed yarn-in-tube solid phase extraction (yarn-IT-SPE) followed by high performance liquid chromatography. For the first time, cotton yarns were coated with a new polypyrrole@copper-chromium-iron ternary layered double hydroxide nanocomposite (Yarn@PPy@Cu-Cr-Fe LDH). The yarn@PPy@Cu-Cr-Fe LDH sorbent exhibited flexible substrate, high porosity, a three-dimensional, high sorbent loading, long lifetime, good mechanical stability, high anion-exchange capacity and large specific surface area as a result it is a good choice for the separation and preconcentration of acidic cholorophenols in honey samples. Several important factors affecting extraction efficiency such as extraction and desorption times, pH of solution and flow rates of the sample solution and eluent were investigated and optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the limits of detection were in the range of 0.05-0.07 μg L-1. This method showed good linearity for chlorophenols in the range of 0.10-500 μg L-1, with coefficients of determination better than 0.9989. The inter- and intra-assay precisions (RSD%, n = 5) were in the range of 3.2-4.9% and 2.1-3.6% at three concentration levels of 2, 10 and 20 μg L-1, respectively. The validated method was successfully applied for analysis of 4-chloro-, 2,4-dichloro-, and 2,4,6-trichloro phenols in honey samples.

Abstract
Recently, ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted considerable research interest in biomedical applications, owing to their intriguing quantum size and surface effects. In this work, a one-step "bottom-up" method is developed to prepare rare-earth (Gd3+ and Yb3+) co-doped layered double hydroxide (LDH) monolayer nanosheets, with a precisely controlled composition and uniform morphology. Due to the successful introduction of Gd3+ and Yb3+ into the LDH host layer, the Gd&Yb-LDH monolayer nanosheets exhibit excellent magnetic resonance (MR)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) dual-mode imaging functionality. Moreover, the Gd&Yb-LDH monolayer nanosheets achieve an ultrahigh loading of a chemotherapeutic drug (SN38) with a loading content (LC) of 925%, which is a one order of magnitude enhancement compared with previously reported delivery systems of hydrophobic drugs. Interestingly, by further combination with indocyanine green (ICG), in vivo tri-mode imaging, including CT, MR and near infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging, is achieved, which enables a noninvasive visualization of cancer cell distribution with deep spatial resolution and high sensitivity. In addition, in vitro and in vivo therapeutic evaluations demonstrate an extremely high tri-mode synergetic anticancer activity and superior biocompatibility of SN38&ICG/Gd&Yb-LDH. Therefore, this work demonstrates a paradigm for the synthesis of novel multifunctional 2D monolayer materials via a facile "bottom-up" route, which shows promising applications in cancer synergetic theranostics.

Abstract
In this work, the bio-nanohybrids of magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide intercalated with zwitterionic histidine (His-LDH) was synthesized. The crystal phase, morphology, and nanostructure of the as-prepared His-LDH were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption methods. The His-LDHs were used to remove anionic dyes, including Congo red (CR), indigo carmine (IC) and sunset yellow FCF (SY) from aqueous solutions. The detailed investigation of the kinetics and the adsorption isotherms of CR, IC and SY from aqueous solutions showed that the dyes adsorb rapidly, in accordance with a pseudo-second-order kinetics and a Freundlich adsorption isotherm model. The remarkably high adsorption capacity of the dyes on the His-LDH (efficiency of CR removal, 99.98%; maximum specific removal qmax, 1112 mg g-1; efficiency of IC removal, 98.98%; qmax, 625 mg g-1; and efficiency of SY removal, 99.78%; qmax, 400 mg g-1) is rationalized on the basis of electrostatic interactions as well as π-π and H-bonding interactions between the His-LDH adsorbent and the acidic dyes. Adsorption experiments indicate that the resulting His-LDH has great potential applications as an environmentally friendly material for the swift removal of acidic dyes from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
In this work, a novel ruthenium complex loaded monolayer layered double hydroxide (LDH) (denoted as Ru(C-bpy)2 /mLDH) as supramolecular nanosensor is synthesized, which is greatly exclusive to the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. The Ru(C-bpy)2 /mLDH ultrathin sheet displays not only enhanced luminescence lifetime compared to the parent Ru(C-bpy)2 alone, but also improved oxygen responsibility under an excitation of 488 or 800 nm. Moreover, the Ru(C-bpy)2 /mLDH is possessed of two-photon fluorescence imaging ability under the 800 nm irradiation. In addition, the Ru(C-bpy)2 /mLDH can generate singlet oxygen with a high yield (φ∆ ) of 0.28 under the 520 nm irradiation, while the φ∆ of Ru(C-bpy)2 is 0.19. Therefore, the Ru(C-bpy)2 /mLDH can be applied as a supramolecular theranostic agent with light-switchable cancer imaging and photodynamic therapy properties.

Abstract
Conjugating nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a useful strategy to improve the colloidal and biological stability of nanoparticles. However, studies on PEGylation of two-dimensional layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles are very limited. The present work reported two functionalization approaches to synthesize PEG-conjugated LDH nanoparticles by introducing phosphonic acid terminated PEG before and after LDH aging. The successful PEGylation was confirmed and suggested to be via electrostatic interaction and a ligand exchange process. Different functionalization approaches resulted in different binding types of PEG on/in LDH nanoparticles. The PEG coating maintained the dispersity of LDH nanoparticles in water and saline with the feeding mass ratio of 1:1. Further colloidal stability tests of PEGylated LDHs revealed that the PEGylated LDH dispersity was affected by the feeding mass ratio of PEG/LDH, the molar weight of PEG and anions intercalated in the LDHs. In a test to determine the extent of non-specific protein adsorption, the PEGylation was effective at resisting non-specific bovine serum albumin adsorption on LDH nanoparticles with both functionalization methods investigated. Moreover, PEGylated LDH nanoparticles had no effect on cell viability up to 500 µg/mL, and demonstrated enhanced cellular uptake in a SK-MEL-28 cell culture. The results in this work indicate that conjugating phosphonic acid-terminated PEG on LDH nanoparticles is a promising strategy to improve the colloidal and biological stability of LDHs for biomedical applications.

Abstract
A series of silica@layered double hydroxides (SiO2@Mg2Al-CO3-AMO-LDHs) have been synthesised by in situ precipitation of Mg2Al-CO3-LDH at room temperature in the presence of amorphous spherical silica particles (∼500 nm). We have systematically investigated a number of synthetic parameters in order to evaluate their effects on the composition, morphological and physical properties of the isolated materials. Syntheses carried out at moderate stirring speeds (e.g. 500 rpm) were found to promote the formation of vertically aligned LDH platelets with respect to the silica surface. Addition rates of the metal solutions slower than 0.43 mmol h-1 were found to create a thicker LDH shell consisting of vertically aligned LDH platelets. When the metal solutions were added rapidly (0.86 mmol h-1), we observed that for both slow and fast stirring speeds the synthesised core-shell materials had thin LDH shells and the majority of the LDH precipitated independent of the silica, forming unbound "free" LDH.

Abstract
The effect of LDH samples comprised of chloride anions intercalated between positive layers of magnesium/aluminum (Mg-Al LDH) or zinc/aluminum (Zn-Al LDH) chemical composition on pre-osteoblast performance is investigated. Non-cytotoxic concentrations of both LDHs modulated pre-osteoblast adhesion by triggering cytoskeleton rearrangement dependent on recruiting of Cofilin, which is modulated by the inhibition of the Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A), culminating in osteoblast differentiation with a significant increase of osteogenic marker genes. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bone sialoprotein (BSP) are significantly up-modulated by both LDHs; however, Mg-Al LDH nanomaterial promoted even more significance than both experimental controls, while the phosphorylations of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPKs)- extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) significantly increased. MAPK signaling is necessary to activate Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) gene. Concomitantly, it is also investigated whether challenged osteoblasts are able to modulate osteoclastogenesis by investigating both osteoprotegerin (OPG) and Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-ligand (RANKL) in this model; a dynamic reprogramming of both these genes is found, suggesting LDHs in modulating osteoclastogenesis. These results suggest that LDHs interfere in bone remodeling, and they can be considered as nanomaterials in graft-based bone healing or drug-delivery materials for bone disorders.

Abstract
Polyhedral-like NiMn-layered double hydroxide/porous carbon (NiMn-LDH/PC-x) composites are successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method (x = 1, 2 means different mass percent of porous carbon (PC) in composites). The NiMn-LDH/PC-1 composites possess specific capacitance 1634 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1 , and it is much better than that of pure LDH (1095 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 ). Besides, the sample can retain 84.58% of original capacitance after 3000 cycles at 15 A g-1 . An asymmetric supercapacitor with NiMn-LDH/PC-1 as anode and activated carbon as cathode is fabricated, and the supercapacitor can achieve an energy density of 18.60 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 225.03 W kg-1 . The enhanced electrochemical performance attributes to the high faradaic pseudocapacitance of NiMn-LDH, the introduction of PC, and the 3D porous structure of LDH/PC-1 composites. The introduction of PC hinders serious agglomeration of LDH and further accelerates ions transport. The encouraging results indicate that these materials are one of the most potential candidates for energy storage devices.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles have been widely used for various biomedical applications. However, because of the difficulty of surface functionalization of LDH nanoparticles, the systemic administration of these nanomaterials for in vivo therapy remains a bottleneck. In this work, we develop a novel type of aqueous dispersible two-dimensional ultrathin LDH nanosheets with a size of about 50 nm and a thickness of about 1.4 to 4 nm. We are able to covalently attach positively charged rhodamine B fluorescent molecules to the nanosheets, and the nanohybrid retains strong fluorescence in liquid and even dry powder form. Therefore, it is available for bioimaging. Beyond this, it is convenient to modify the nanosheets with neutral poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), so the nanohybrid is suitable for drug delivery through systemic administration. Indeed, in the test of using these nanostructures for delivery of a negatively charged anticancer drug, methotrexate (MTX), in a mouse model, dramatically improved therapeutic efficacy is achieved, indicated by the effective inhibition of tumor growth. Furthermore, our systematic in vivo safety investigation including measuring body weight, determining biodistribution in major organs, hematology analysis, blood biochemical assay, and hematoxylin and eosin stain demonstrates that the new material is biocompatible. Overall, this work represents a major development in the path of modifying functional LDH nanomaterials for clinical applications.

Abstract
This work presented a facile and eco-friendly method for the determination of cobalt ions (Co(II)) in living cells based on layered double hydroxides (Mg-Al CO3-LDHs) enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) emission of a Co(II)-hydrogen peroxide-sodium hydroxide system. The enhanced CL emission was attributed to the large specific surface area of Mg-Al CO3-LDHs, which facilitates the generation of an excited-stated intermediate. The proposed method displayed high selectivity toward Co(II) over other metal ions. Under the optimal conditions, the increased CL intensity showed a linear response versus Co(II) concentration in the range of 5.0-1000 nM with a detection limit of 3.7 nM (S/N = 3). The relative standard deviation for nine repeated measurements of 100 nM Co(II) was 3.2%. Furthermore, the proposed method was successfully applied to detect Co(II) in living cell samples, and the results were agreed with those obtained by the standard ICP-MS method.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) platelets with nanosized and microsized level were synthesized and used as fillers in an isotactic polypropylene (PP) matrix. The nucleation and crystallization behavior of PP/LDH composites (denoted as 1-PPLx and 2-PPLx for composites containing nanosized and microsized LDH, respectively; x represents the mass percentage of LDH) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy techniques. It is found that the crystallization temperature of PP/LDH composites is largely enhanced and the half crystallization time is reduced remarkably relative to pure PP, especially for 2-PPLx composite. The 2-PPLx composite exhibits stronger heterogeneous nucleating ability and faster crystallization rate than 1-PPLx samples with the same LDH loading. In addition, the crystallized PP/LDH composites possess significantly enhanced thermal stability, gas barrier, and flame-retardant properties relative to neat PP, which would show a broad application prospect in engineering plastics and packing industry.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a vital half-reaction in water splitting and metal-air batteries. Developing earth-abundant, highly efficient and durable OER catalysts has faced huge challenges until now, because OER is a strict kinetic sluggish process. Herein, we report the construction of hierarchically porous graphitized carbon (HPGC) supported NiFe layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with a core-shell structure (denoted as HPGC@NiFe) by a facile strategy. The HPGC was first obtained by pyrolysing phenolic resin nanospheres with FeCl3 and ZnCl2 as the catalyst and the activator, respectively. Then the NiFe LDH arrays were directly grown on the HPGC by a one-step hydrothermal method. The as-synthesized HPGC@NiFe reveals excellent OER properties with a low onset potential, a lower overpotential of 265 mV (corresponding to the current density at 10 mA cm-2) and a small Tafel slope (56 mV per decade). And its catalytic activity is even superior to that of the start-of-the-art noble-metal catalyst IrO2/C. Notably, the HPGC@NiFe electrode shows admirable stability measured by performing 2000 cycle CVs and long-term electrolysis for 50 h. The prominent performance can be attributed to the synergistic effect between the NiFe-LDHs and the hierarchically porous graphitized carbon, in which the former can increase the exposure of the active sites, while the latter can increase the charge transfer efficiency. Our research implies the possibility for the development of low-cost layered double hydroxides as a promising candidate in electrochemical energy storage and conversion equipment.

Abstract
A series of three-dimensional (3D) porous nanocomposites, comprised of partially reduced graphene oxide (pRGO) and CO32- containing Mg-Al layered double hydroxide, were synthesized in two steps. In the first step, graphene oxide (GO) was fabricated by a modified Hummers' method, and, subsequently, in the second step layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets were homogeneously grown on the surface of the GO sheets by an in situ crystallization approach, involving a facile coprecipitation technique. The alkaline medium used for the in situ growth of LDH on the GO surface resulted in the partial reduction of GO to pRGO, which was confirmed by XRD. XRD also revealed the successful formation of crystalline LDH nanosheets on the surface of pRGO, whereas FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of different functional groups in the nanocomposites. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption studies of the prepared nanocomposites revealed them as high surface area porous materials. Electron microscopic techniques, like TEM and SEM, confirmed that the architectures of the prepared nanocomposites displayed an interconnected 3D network, where a number of LDH nanosheets were interwoven on the surface of pRGO. The elemental mapping and EDX analysis qualitatively confirmed the presence of all of the expected elements in the fabricated nanocomposites. Because of the unique 3D porous network and the presence of a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups, the prepared nanocomposites proved suitable for the adsorption of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solution with a maximum adsorption capacity of 116.2 mg g-1. Equilibrium was achieved after 180 min on conducting the adsorption experiments at pH 4.5. Desorption experiments established the possibility of recovering the metal ions as well as the regeneration of adsorbents for repeated use.

Abstract
Colloidal stability of polymeric latex particles was studied in the presence of oppositely charged layered double hydroxide (LDH) platelets of different interlayer anions. Adsorption of the LDH particles led to charge neutralization and to overcharging of the latex at appropriate concentrations. Mixing stable colloidal suspensions of individual particles results in rapid aggregation once the LDH adsorption neutralizes the negative charges of the polymer spheres, while stable suspensions were observed at high and low LDH doses. The governing interparticle interactions included repulsive electrical double layer forces as well as van der Waals and patch-charge attractions, whose strength depended on the amount of LDH particles adsorbed on the latex surface. The type of the LDH interlayer anions did not affect the colloidal stability of the samples. Structural investigation of the obtained latex-LDH composites revealed that the polymer spheres were completely coated with the inorganic platelets once their concentration was sufficiently high. These results are especially important for designing synthetic routes for hybrid systems in suspensions, where stable colloids are required for uniform film-formation and for the homogeneous distribution of the inorganic filler within the composite materials.

Abstract
Tuning and optimizing the efficiency of light energy transfer play an important role in meeting modern challenges of minimizing energy loss and developing high-performance optoelectronic materials. However, attempts to fabricate systems giving highly efficient energy transfer between luminescent donor and acceptor have achieved limited success to date. Herein, we present a strategy towards phosphorescence energy transfer at a 2D orderly crystalline interface. We first show that new ultrathin nanosheet materials giving long-afterglow luminescence can be obtained by assembling aromatic guests into a layered double hydroxide host. Furthermore, we demonstrate that co-assembly of these long-lived energy donors with an energy acceptor in the same host generates an ordered arrangement of phosphorescent donor-acceptor pairs spatially confined within the 2D nanogallery, which affords energy transfer efficiency as high as 99.7%. Therefore, this work offers an alternative route to develop new types of long-afterglow nanohybrids and efficient light transfer systems with potential energy, illumination and sensor applications.
