Abstract
Layered double oxides (LDOs) can restore the parent layered double hydroxides (LDHs) structure under hydrous conditions, and this “memory effect” plays a critical role in the applications of LDHs, yet the detailed mechanism is still under debate. Here, we apply a strategy based on ex situ and in situ solid-state NMR spectroscopy to monitor the Mg/Al-LDO structure changes during recovery at the atomic scale. Despite the common belief that aqueous solution is required, we discover that the structure recovery can occur in a virtually solid-state process. Local structural information obtained with NMR spectroscopy shows that the recovery in aqueous solution follows dissolution-recrystallization mechanism, while the solid-state recovery is retro-topotactic, indicating a true “memory effect”. The amount of water is key in determining the interactions of water with oxides, thus the memory effect mechanism. The results also provide a more environmentally friendly and economically feasible LDHs preparation route. The “memory effect” of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) plays a critical role in their applications, yet the details of the mechanism are still under debate. Here authors reveal the nature of the “memory effect” with ex situ and in situ solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
The effective treatment of complex oily wastewater is of great significance but still a considerable challenge, since single-function, expensive reagents, and complicated process have emerged as shackles for practical applications. Herein, with the objective to waste-control-waste, we proposed a facile and sustainable strategy to fabricate a low-cost multifunctional layer from hazardous waste aluminum sludge (WAS) for complex oily wastewater management. The as-designed layered double oxides/WAS (LDOs/WAS) layer with three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical rough surface exhibited excellent underwater superoleophobicity even under corrosive conditions and low adhesion to oil without any chemical modification reagent treatment. Significantly, the layer can be applied to gravity-directed simultaneous efficient oil-in-water emulsions and anions (taking phosphate as an example) separation with a separation efficiency for emulsion and phosphate up to 99.4% and 99.1%, respectively, and a high separation flux of above 2585 L m-2 h-1. Notably, the flux can be controlled simply and flexibly by adjusting the thickness of the layer. Furthermore, the layer also displayed excellent thermal stability, chemical stability, durability and recyclability. Therefore, this work not only presents a promising approach to design sludge-based multifunctional materials for complex oily wastewater remediation, but also shows great potential and value in environmental pollutions reduction and industrial applications.

Abstract
In this work, we present an effective approach for promoting the immobilization of anionic dyes on the collagen fibers of the leather matrix via introducing layered double oxide (LDO), which is obtained by calcining layered double hydroxides (LDH), inspired by incorporating their memory effect and charge effect. The results indicate that the calcination increases specific surface area, oxygen vacancies, and Al3+ defects of LDH nanosheets, and the structure of LDH nanosheets can be reconstructed by rehydration. Diffusion behavior of both LDH and LDO nanosheets into the collagen fibers follows the Langmuir model. The LDO nanosheets can penetrate into the collagen fibers more easily and evenly than that of the LDH nanosheets. Moreover, the formation of ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds, and coordination bonds between the nanosheets and the collagen stabilizing the collagen microstructures can endow the collagen fibers with improved thermal stability. Increased porosity of the collagen fibers results in enhanced adsorption and immobilization capacity for anionic dyes on the collagen fibers of the leather matrix in leather post-tanning process. Furthermore, adsorption behavior of anionic dye on the collagen fibers can be well accorded with pseudo-second-order and Langmuir model, exhibiting a monolayer adsorption process. This established cooperative approach will be helpful to extend the application of clay for improving the dyeing performance of leather matrix towards eco-leather manufacture and effectively reduce emission of dyes from the source in leather manufacturing.

Abstract
Traditional disposal techniques for the spent layered adsorbents after capturing organics suffer from intractable obstacles, such as resource waste and secondary pollution. To address this diploma, we here developed the "resource-utilization" strategy, i.e., converting the organic layered double hydroxide (as representative) to magnetic sulfur (S)-doped graphene-like carbon-supported layered double oxide (MG/S-LDO) to be reutilized in water purification. The as-prepared MG/S-LDO exhibited outstanding remediation ability toward methyl orange (MO) and lead(II), with the adsorption capacity of 1456 and 656 mg g-1, respectively. Specifically, the residue concentration of Pb2+ was reduced to 0.15 mg L-1 within 1 h, which met the discharge limit of the secondary industrial wastewater. MG/S-LDO could also maintain the preeminent adsorption capability under various interferences (such as wide pH and co-existing ions), even in the authentic water matrices. The removal mechanisms were systematically investigated to unveil that MO removal was dominated by metal-complexation, "memory effect", and π-π electron donor-acceptor (EDA). While for Pb2+ removal, besides the released OH- from LDO as precipitate agent, the vacancy defect resulting from the S doping played a crucial role in electron interaction between Pb2+ and S-doped graphene. Additionally, the MG/S-LDO was further confirmed as an eco-friendly adsorbent with excellent reusability via the acute toxicity tests using green algae and multiple cycle experiments. This work provides a novel resource-utilization strategy for organic layered wastes to construct the functional eco-friendly materials in wastewater purification realm.

Abstract
Water pollution caused by industrial oily wastewater, is world-widely concerned by both scientific and practical researches, owing to its catastrophic destruction to natural environment, which highlights the urgency of producing green and advanced separation materials. Herein, a novel approach was proposed to fabricate oil-absorbing and oil/water-separating microcellular polypropylene (PP)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/sorbitol nanocomposites using a simple, green, and facile microcellular foaming technology. Owning to the effectively modified crystallization via introducing CNTs/sorbitol derivatives, the ultralight and highly-reticulated PP microcellular foam was prepared with an open-cell content of 99.4% and an expansion ratio of 50, which facilitated the creation of nano-porous structures on cell walls. Hence, the as-prepared PP nanocomposite foam presented pronounced absorption capacity of 40 g/g for applied oils with recovery efficiency of 97.2%, superior thermal-insulating and mechanical performance. Furthermore, the as-achieved unique hierarchical porous structures of the PP/CNT/sorbitol foam contributed to the outstanding oil/water separation capability, separation efficiency of up-to 97.6%, ascribed to its superhydrophobicity, capillary penetration action, high porosity and open-cell content. Therefore, this work provided new insight into the feasibility of advantageous, high-efficiency, environmentally friendly, and profitable PP-based foams as oil absorbents, which, to the best of our knowledge, outperform conventional polymer absorbents in treatment of oily wastewater.

Abstract
Corncob, an agricultural bio-waste, was used as adsorbent to remove organic and inorganic contaminants in waste lubricating oil (WLO) from diesel engine. To improve its adsorption capacity, corncob was modified with mixed solution of nitric acid, Hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and ethanol. Characterization results showed the crystallinity index of corncob enhanced 12%, which would be ascribed to the disruption of the dense lignin-carbohydrates structure in lignocellulose biomass by modification. The surface of modified corncob became smoother and porous. The adsorption results showed modified corncob had better removal rates to contaminants than raw corncob. For WLO with 80,000 km mileage, the removal rates to Fe, Al, Cu were enhanced from 19%, 6.4%, 48-27%, 27%, 53%, while that for oxide, sulphate, aromates, soot and insoluble resins were enhanced 1.7, 1.2, 3.0, 1.7 and 1.7 times. The reduction rate of total acid number to WLO with 40,000, 60,000, 80,000 km were enhanced 16%, 9%, 12% by modified corncob, respectively. The optimal adsorption condition was explored as adsorbing 60 min at 90 °C with 2% adsorbent. Corncob, with the advantages of low cost, good biodegradability and high adsorption capacity, could be used as alternative to conventional adsorbent for WLO.

Abstract
The development of three-dimensional (3D) micro-/nanostructures with multiscale hierarchy offers new potential for the improvement of the pristine textile properties. In this work, a polyester fabric coated with 3D hierarchically structured rutile TiO2 nanowires (THNWP) was fabricated by a facile hydrothermal strategy. The THNWP samples exhibit markedly improved photocatalytic activities and antibacterial properties owing to their 3D hierarchical architecture constructed by one-dimensional nanowire structures, good crystallinity, excellent light-harvesting capability, and fast electron-transfer rate. Furthermore, the unique 3D hierarchical nanostructures also combine with the monofilament to produce ternary-scale hierarchy, which endows the fabric surface with outstanding superamphiphobicity after further facile fluorination treatment. The supportive air-pockets trapped within the unique ternary-scale architectures are proved to be the crucial factor in the achievement of high liquid repellency, and the highest performing superamphiphobic surface is capable of repelling liquids down to a minimal surface tension of 23.4 mN m-1. We envision that our findings may possess great potential in the bottom-up design of high-performance textiles.

Abstract
It remains challenging to develop high-performance technologies for uranium (U(VI)) removal/recovery from wastewater/seawater. In this study, MgAl-double oxide (MgAl-LDO-500) was fabricated by calcining MgAl-layered double hydroxide (MgAl-LDH) at 500 ℃ in air. It showed excellent performance in U(VI) removal with an equilibrium time of 15 min and the maximal adsorption capacity of 1098.90 mg g-1. MgAl-LDO-500 also showed good adaptability in a wide range of pH (from 3 to 10), coexisting ions and different water matrices for U(VI) immobilization. It was found that the anion form of U(VI) intercalated into the layer of MgAl-LDO-500 and caused recombination of layered structures. A series of characterizations (XRD, SEM, FTIR, XPS) proved that memory effect and surface complexation were the key mechanism for the enhancement of U(VI) immobilization on MgAl-LDO-500. Due to the remarkable memory effect, the performance of MgAl-LDO-500 for U(VI) immobilization was superior to MgAl-LDH and other high-cost materials. Besides, the fixed-bed column experiments illustrated that the removal rate achieved 99 % before 1500 BV at initial U(VI) concentration of 20 μg L-1, and the breakthrough volumes (BVs) were 4500 BVs. These results confirm that MgAl-LDO-500 is a promising material for extracting U(VI) from seawater and wastewater.

Abstract
A novel ion species-responsive oil-water separation material was designed: poly ionic liquid (PIL) was carried on the graphene oxide (GO) by free radical polymerization, then the PIL modified GO sheets (GO-PIL) were coated on cotton fabric (CF). The wettability of the obtained GO-PIL coated CF (GO-PIL@CF) could be switched between hydrophilic and hydrophobic state with the exchange of different types of counteranions. Water contact angle of the GO-PIL@CF could be switched between 0 to about 145°; and correspondingly the underwater oil contact angle would change between about 148 to 0°. Because of the switchable wettability, the GO-PIL@CF could selectively separate water or oil from the oil-water mixtures. Meanwhile, due to the loose fibrous structure, the GO-PIL@CF showed relatively high permeate fluxes; in the hydrophilic state the water flux was about 36000 L/m2h, while in the hydrophobic state the fluxes for the low-density oils (n-hexane and toluene) were about 59,000 and 65000 L/m2h, respectively. Consequently, the separation processes could be completed simply by gravity. In addition, because of the soft and flexible mechanical property, the GO-PIL@CF could serve as wrappage of traditional absorbents and be applied directly as absorbent to remove water or oil selectively from their mixtures.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 398:123001. [PMID: 32768832 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.123001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2020] [Revised: 05/17/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2020] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
The intumescent flame retardant (IFR) with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as the main component has many defects in practical applications, more than that, APP can be traced to non-renewable phosphate rock resources. For the foregoing reasons, the melamine phytate supramolecular nanosheet flame retardant incorporating manganese ion (PAMA-Mn) was successfully prepared with a facile and environmental friendly hydrothermal procedure based on renewable bio-based material phytic acid (PA). The flame retardant polypropylene composite (PPI) with 13.5 wt% APP and 4.5 wt% pentaerythritol (PER) failed to the UL-94 test, and its limiting oxygen index (LOI) value was only 26.5%. After 33 wt% of APP was replaced by PAMA-Mn, the PPMn33 incorporating only 18 wt% flame retardant additives passed the UL-94 V-0 rating, and its LOI value was increased to 31.9%. Compared with PP, pHRR and pSPR values of PPMn33 were reduced by 56% and 23%, respectively. The fire retardant mechanism of PPMn33 was thoroughly discussed via a variety of characterization methods. It was found that the peak of the Gram-Schmidt curve of PPMn33 was drastically reduced by 49% relative to that of PPI, indicating a remarkably decrease of combustible volatile products owing to the incorporation of PAMA-Mn, thereby rapidly reducing the fire hazard risk.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2020; 578:124-134. [PMID: 32521352 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2020.04.122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2020] [Revised: 04/26/2020] [Accepted: 04/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Pollution of tetracyclines (TCs) in swine wastewater has been a critical concern worldwide. Notably, multiple anions (e.g. PO43-, NO3-) coexist in the actual environments, which could significantly influence the TCs removal. In the current study, MgAl layered double oxide (MgAl-LDO) was adopted for investigating the TC removal performance with/without PO43- or NO3-. In all systems, the adsorption performance exhibited two different approaches between low and high TC concentrations. In the single system, pseudo-second-order and the Freundlich model fitted well to the equilibrium adsorption data when TC concentration was below 125 mg·L-1, while the pseudo-first-order and the linear model could describe the removal process at high TC concentration (>125 mg·L-1). The maximum adsorption capacity was 83.56 mg·g-1. In the co-existing system, the adsorption capacity was slightly enhanced when TC concentration below 150 mg·L-1 however was inhibited at high concentration (>150 mg·L-1). Combined with the characterization analyses, the interaction mechanism at low concentration was primarily surface adsorption on reconstructed LDH from LDO in the TC-alone system. It is worth mention that both PO43- and NO3- facilitated the formation of LDH via rehydration of LDO which enhanced surface adsorption in the co-existing system. At high TC concentration, the formation of tetracycline-metal complexes played a dominant role in TC removal in the single system, whereas diminished complexation in the binary system led to the decreased TC removal. This study provides a theoretical and practical guidance for MgAl-LDO on the efficient remediation of actual tetracyclines wastewater.

Hydrolytic dehydrogenation of NH3BH3 catalyzed by ruthenium nanoparticles supported on magnesium–aluminum layered double-hydroxides. RSC Adv 2020; 10:9996-10005.

Abstract
Ammonia borane (AB, NH3BH3) with extremely high hydrogen content (19.6 wt%) is considered to be one of the most promising chemical hydrides for storing hydrogen. According to the starting materials of AB and H2O, a hydrogen capacity of 7.8 wt% is achieved for the AB hydrolytic dehydrogenation system with the presence of a highly efficient catalyst. In this work, ruthenium nanoparticles supported on magnesium–aluminum layered double hydroxides (Ru/MgAl-LDHs) were successfully synthesized via a simple method, i.e., chemical reduction. The effect of Mg/Al molar ratios in MgAl-LDHs on the catalytic performance for AB hydrolytic dehydrogenation was systematically investigated. Catalyzed by the as-synthesized Ru/Mg1Al1-LDHs catalyst, it took about 130 s at room temperature to complete the hydrolysis reaction of AB, which achieved a rate of hydrogen production of about 740 ml s−1 g−1. Furthermore, a relatively high activity (TOF = 137.1 molH2 molRu−1 min−1), low activation energy (Ea = 30.8 kJ mol−1) and fairly good recyclability of the Ru/Mg1Al1-LDHs catalyst in ten cycles were achieved toward AB hydrolysis for hydrogen generation. More importantly, the mechanism of AB hydrolysis catalyzed by Ru/MgAl-LDHs was simulated via density functional theory. The facile preparation and high catalytic performance of Ru/MgAl-LDHs make it an efficient catalyst for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB. Ru/MgAl-LDHs catalyst was successfully prepared, which exhibited higher catalytic activity and lower activation energy toward the hydrolysis of ammonia borane for hydrogen production.![]()

Abstract
Calcium sulfate hemihydrate with different structures and morphologies has a broad scope of applications. Herein, we reported a strategy for nanosized calcium sulfate through room-temperature microemulsion by using calcium carbonate and sulfuric acid. After characterizations, it was indicated that the morphology of calcium sulfate products fabricated could be changed and controlled using different surfactants TritonX-114, SDBS, and CTAB by the microemulsion method. The method demonstrated in this work would be a benefit for the synthesis of nanomaterials with special structures in the future.
