Abstract
Dental caries is a worldwide public healthcare concern, and is closely related to the acidic environment that caused by bacterial decomposition of food. In this study, a two-step ion exchange liquid-phase stripping method was applied to strip out vermiculite (VMT) nanosheets, then amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and dextran were inserted between the VMT nanosheets interlayer to obtain a composite two-dimension nanosheets (VMT/ACP/Dextran). VMT/ACP/Dextran composite nanosheets exhibited excellent biocompatibility and could provide exogenous Ca2+and PO43- from ACP, provide SiO44-, Mg2+, Fe2+ and obtain buffering pH and antibacterial properties from VMT, as well as improve suspension stability and targeting Streptococcus mutans through glucan. The in vitro study showed that the composite materials could promote the mineralization and sealing of dentin tubules by releasing active ions, buffer pH 4.5 (a value close to the pH in the dental plaque environment) to pH 6.6-7.1 (values close to the pH in human saliva) through ion exchange, and exert antibacterial effects by targeting Streptococcus mutans and exerting oxidase like and peroxidase like activities to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The in vivo animal study showed that daily cleaning teeth using VMT/ACP/Dextran composite nanosheets could effectively reduce the incidence rate and severity of dental caries in rats. Taking together, the developed VMT/ACP/Dextran composite nanosheets, which integrated the excellent properties of VMT, ACP and dextran, can effectively prevent dental caries through a combination of factors such as buffering acids, antibacterial properties, and promoting calcification, and may be used as an active ingredient for daily oral hygiene or filling materials to prevent and treat dental caries.

Experimental exploration and DFT analysis of the kinetics and mechanism of malachite green photodegradation catalyzed by polyaniline-copper oxide nanocomposite. J Mol Model 2024; 30:235. [PMID: 38951276 DOI: 10.1007/s00894-024-06039-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
CONTEXT AND RESULTS A nanocomposite photocatalyst consisting of polyaniline (PANI) and copper oxide (CuO) was successfully synthesized through an in-situ polymerization approach using aniline as the precursor. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), determination of the point of zero charge (pHPZC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The photocatalytic efficiency of the PANI-CuO nanocomposite was evaluated in the context of photodegrading Malachite Green (MG) dye under visible light. Malachite Green, a synthetic dye commonly used in the textile and aquaculture industries, is a significant contaminant due to its toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic properties, making its removal from water resources crucial for environmental and human health. Distilled water artificially contaminated with MG dye was used as the medium for testing. The parameters influencing the photodegradation efficiency were comprehensively investigated. These parameters included catalyst dosage, reaction time, initial dye concentration, and pH. The results of this study indicate that the degradation efficiency of MG dye displayed an upward trend with time, catalyst dosage, and pH while exhibiting a converse relationship with the initial dye concentration. A degradation rate of 97% was achieved with an initial concentration of 20 mg L-1, employing a catalyst dose of 1.6 g L-1 at pH 6 for a reaction time of 180 min. Furthermore, the reusability of the catalyst was assessed, revealing consistent performance over five consecutive cycles. COMPUTATIONAL AND THEORETICAL TECHNIQUES Density functional theory (DFT) was employed to optimize the structures of PANI, PANI-CuO, and their respective complexes formed through dye interaction, employing Gaussian software. These calculations employed the B3LYP/6-311G + + (d,p) basis set in an aqueous environment with water serving as the solvent. The kinetics of Malachite Green degradation were analyzed using both first and second-order kinetic models.

Enhancing Wastewater Depollution: Sustainable Biosorption Using Chemically Modified Chitosan Derivatives for Efficient Removal of Heavy Metals and Dyes. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:2724. [PMID: 38893988 PMCID: PMC11173971 DOI: 10.3390/ma17112724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
Driven by concerns over polluted industrial wastewater, particularly heavy metals and dyes, this study explores biosorption using chemically cross-link chitosan derivatives as a sustainable and cost-effective depollution method. Chitosan cross-linking employs either water-soluble polymers and agents like glutaraldehyde or copolymerization of hydrophilic monomers with a cross-linker. Chemical cross-linking of polymers has emerged as a promising approach to enhance the wet-strength properties of materials. The chitosan thus extracted, as powder or gel, was used to adsorb heavy metals (lead (Pb2+) and copper (Cu2+)) and dyes (methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV)). Extensive analysis of the physicochemical properties of both the powder and hydrogel adsorbents was conducted using a range of analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). To gain a comprehensive understanding of the sorption process, the effect of contact time, pH, concentration, and temperature was investigated. The adsorption capacity of chitosan powder for Cu(II), Pb(II), methylene blue (MB), and crystal violet (CV) was subsequently determined as follows: 99, 75, 98, and 80%, respectively. In addition, the adsorption capacity of chitosan hydrogel for Cu(II), Pb(II), MB, and CV was as follows: 85, 95, 85, and 98%, respectively. The experimental data obtained were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The isotherm study revealed that the adsorption equilibrium is well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.998), and the sorption capacity of both chitosan powder and hydrogel was found to be exceptionally high (approximately 98%) with the adsorbent favoring multilayer adsorption. Besides, Dubinin has given an indication that the sorption process was dominated by Van der Waals physical forces at all studied temperatures.

Abstract
This research article presents the fabrication of NH2-terephthalic acid crosslinked chitosan-bentonite composite, which adopted a facile synthesis approach and offered efficient adsorption capacity for organic dyes. A novel hydrogel material named CB 5:1 demonstrated remarkable adsorption for anionic dyes (Congo red (CR) and brilliant blue (BB)) while showing a negligible affinity for cationic dyes. Adsorption isotherm studies revealed the adsorption capacity of 4950 mg/g and 2053 mg/g (per g of composite's dry weight) for CR and BB following the Langmuir adsorption model. Kinetics and thermodynamic studies were also conducted while the adsorption of anionic dyes in the presence of metal ions, cationic dyes, anionic dyes, and in simulated water remained unaffected. Laccase, an industrially important enzyme, was also immobilized on CB 5:1 to achieve enzyme stability and reusability, resulting in a staggering immobilization capacity (4782 mg/g) at pH 6.0. Laccase immobilized product was employed to perform dye degradation (> 90 % for CR and > 75 % for BB), and the reusability was tested. Overall, our crosslinked product proved appealing for removing high concentrations of anionic organic dyes from polluted water and could be envisaged for practical use.

Abstract
Herein, the polymer nanomatrix of chitosan/SiO2 (CHI/n-SiO2) was enriched with a π-π electron donor-acceptor system using diaromatic rings of benzil (BEZ) assisted via a hydrothermal process to obtain an effective adsorbent of chitosan-benzil/SiO2 (CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2). The polymer nanomatrix (CHI/n-SiO2) and the resulting adsorbent (CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2) were applied to remove the anionic acid red 88 (AR88) dye from aqueous media in a comparative mode. Box-Behnken design (BBD) was adopted to optimize AR88 adsorption onto CHI/n-SiO2 and CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2 with respect to variables that influence AR88 adsorption (adsorbent dose: 0.02-0.1 g/100 mL; pH: 4-10; and time: 10-90). The adsorption studies at equilibrium were conducted with a variety of initial AR88 dye concentrations (20-200 mg/L). The adsorption isotherm results reveal that the AR88 adsorption by CHI/n-SiO2 and CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2 are described by the Langmuir model. The kinetic adsorption profiles of AR88 with CHI/n-SiO2 and CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2 reveal that the pseudo-first-order model provides the best fit results. Interestingly, CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2 has a high adsorption capacity (261.2 mg/g), which exceeds the adsorption capacity of CHI/n-SiO2 (215.1 mg/g) that relates to the surface effects of SiO2 and the functionalization of chitosan with BEZ. These findings show that CHI-BEZ/n-SiO2 represents a highly efficient adsorbent for the removal of harmful pollutants from water, which outperforming the CHI/n-SiO2 system.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)/carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) porous hydrogels chemically crosslinked by epichlorohydrin were synthesized using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a pore-forming agent for anionic (Congo red, CR) and cationic (methylene blue, MB) dyes removal from aqueous solutions. The swelling ratio of hydrogels prepared with 2 % CS and 2 % CMC (CS2/CMC2) exhibited optimal performance at different pHs. The addition of PEG into hydrogels (denoted as CS2/CMC2-PEG1.25) exhibited a significantly higher adsorption for CR and MB, increasing from 117.83 to 159.12 mg/g and 110.2 to 136 mg/g, respectively. The comprehensive analyses of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermalgravimetric study and scanning electron microscopy showed that CS2/CMC2-PEG1.25 hydrogels became more porous with no significant changes in intermolecular and intramolecular interactions, compared with CS2/CMC2 hydrogels. The adsorption process for CR and MB conformed to the pseudo-second-order and pseudo-first-order kinetics models, respectively. The results of adsorption isotherm for CR followed both Freundlich and Langmuir models with the maximum adsorption capacities of 1053.88 mg/g, whereas the isotherm for MB fitted the Langmuir model better with the maximum adsorption capacities of 331.72 mg/g. The thermodynamic study results proved that the CR and MB adsorption by hydrogels was spontaneous, but the CR adsorption was endothermic and the MB adsorption was exothermic.

Abstract
One of the main problems with water pollution is dye contamination of rivers, industrial effluents, and water sources. It has endangered the world's sources of drinking water. Several remediation strategies have been carefully developed and tested to minimize this ominous picture. Due to their appealing practical and financial benefits, adsorption methods in particular are often listed as one of the most popular solutions to remediate dye-contaminated water. Biopolymer-based hydrogel nanocomposites are a cutting-edge class of materials with a wide range of applications that are effective in removing organic dyes from the environment. Since the incorporation of various materials into hydrogel matrices generated composite materials with distinct characteristics, these unique materials were often alluded to as ideal adsorbents. The fundamental emphasis of the conceptual and critical review of the literature in this research is the significant potential of hydrogel nanocomposites (HNCs) to remediate dye-contaminated water (especially for articles from the previous five years). The review also provides knowledge for the development of biopolymer-based HNCs, prospects, and opportunities for future research. It is also focused on optimum conditions for dye adsorption processes along with their adsorption kinetics and isotherm models. In summary, the information gained in this review research may contribute to a strengthened scientific rationale for the practical and efficient application of these novel adsorbent materials.

Abstract
With the rapid development of the textile industry, a large amount of dyeing wastewater discharge has caused great harm to the ecological environment. In this work, a dual-network, composite hydrogel adsorbent with excellent mechanical properties, good reusability, and large adsorption capacity was prepared by introducing chitosan cross-linked polyvinylamine into the N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide cross-linked polyacrylic acid network. The dual cross-linking network gave the hydrogel excellent mechanical properties with maximum tensile stress and strain up to 1.9 MPa and 920 %. The adsorption capacity of methylene blue on hydrogel was up to 596.14 mg/g. In addition, the prepared hydrogel exhibited good reusability, and their adsorption efficiency remained above 85 % in five consecutive cycles. The adsorption behavior was well fitted by Pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir equation, indicating that the hydrogel was chemisorbed to the dye as a monolayer. The adsorption mechanism analysis showed that the electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding between the functional groups of the hydrogels and methylene blue molecules contributed to the good adsorption capacity. Overall, the synthesized composite hydrogels could be used as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue dye, particularly from textile industry wastewater.
