[PMID: 38917648 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2024] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
Clay minerals have attracted wide attention as biomedical materials due to the unique crystal structure, abundant morphology and good biocompatibility. However, the relevant studies on the abundant natural mixed clay deposits were scarcely reported. Herein, the hemostatic performance of natural mixed-dimensional attapulgite clay (MDAPT) composed of one-dimensional attapulgite and multiple two-dimensional clay were systematically investigated based on the structural evolution using oxalic acid for different time. The results of hemostatic evaluation showed that MDAPT leached by oxalic acid with 1 h presented the shortest clotting time (134 ± 12.17 s), a 15.09 % and 41.74 % reduction of relative hemoglobin absorbance at 180 s and 120 s when compared with the control group, respectively, and an increase of 19.45 % of the blood clotting index in vitro, as well as MDAPT obtained the shortest bleeding time (158.5 ± 6.9 s), nearly 66 % and 31 % reduction blood loss as compared to the blank group and the YNBY group in vivo. This improvement was primarily ascribed to the synergistic effect of lamellar non-expandable illite, and nano rod-like attapulgite. Furthermore, the rapid hemostasis of MDAPT was also due to the joint effect of superhydrophobic property toward blood, minimizing blood loss, surface negative charge, metal ions from MDAPT structural skeleton, promoting an average increase of 21 % for platelet activation. The results suggested that MDAPT could be served as a promising efficient inorganic hemostatic materials, which provided a feasible strategy to realize the high-valued utilization of natural mixed clay resources.

Computational and experimental assessment of efficient dye adsorption method from aqueous effluents by halloysite and palygorskite clay minerals.

Abstract
The removal of dyes from effluents of textile industries represents a technological challenge, due to their significant environmental impact. The application of halloysite (Hal) and palygorskite (Pal) clay minerals as adsorbents for the removal of Congo red (CR) and methylene blue (MB) was evaluated in this work. The materials were applied both in natural and acid-treated forms, and characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM-EDS, FTIR, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm techniques to identify their properties and main active sites. The adsorbents showed potential to remove CR (> 98%) and MB (> 85%) within 180 min, using 0.3 g adsorbent and initial dye concentration of 250 mg L-1. Semi-empirical quantum mechanical calculations (SQM) confirmed the interaction mechanism between dyes and the adsorbents via chemisorption (- 69.0 kcal mol-1 < Eads < - 28.8 kcal mol-1), which was further observed experimentally due to the high fit of adsorption data to pseudo-second order kinetic model (R2 > 0.99) and Langmuir isotherm (R2 > 0.98). The use of Pal and Hal to remove dyes was proven to be economically and environmentally viable for industrial application.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic coatings hold immense promise for various applications. However, their practical use is currently hindered by issues such as poor stability, high costs, and complex preparation processes. Here, we present the preparation of cost-effective and stable superhydrophobic coatings through fluorination of natural attapulgite (F-ATP) nanorods and subsequent solvent-induced phase separation of a silicone-modified polyester adhesive (SMPA) with the F-ATP nanorods dispersed in it. Phase separation of the F-ATP/SMPA system forms a uniform suspension of microaggregates, which can be easily utilized for preparing superhydrophobic coatings via spray coating. The coatings have a low-surface-energy hierarchical micro/nanostructure due to phase separation of SMPA and adhesion of F-ATP to it. Moreover, the effects of the solvent composition (i.e., phase separation degree of SMPA) and the SMPA/F-ATP mass ratio on the morphology, superhydrophobicity, and stability of the coatings were investigated. After systematic optimization, the coatings exhibit excellent static and dynamic superhydrophobicity as well as high mechanical, chemical, thermal, and UV aging stability. Finally, the coatings were applied to the 5G radome surface and showed good rain attenuation prevention performance. Thus, we are confident that the superhydrophobic coatings have great application potential due to their advantages of outstanding performance, straightforward preparation procedures, cost-effectiveness, etc.

Abstract
Clay mineral-based hemostatic materials have attracted much attention in recent years, but it is scarce to report the hemostatic nanocomposite films containing natural mixed-dimensional clay composed of natural one-dimensional and two-dimensional clay minerals. In this study, the high-performance hemostatic nanocomposite films were facilely prepared by incorporating the natural mixed-dimensional palygorskite clay leached by oxalic acid (O-MDPal) into chitosan/polyvinylpyrrolidone (CS/PVP) matrix. By contrast, the obtained nanocomposite films exhibited the higher tensile strength (27.92 MPa), lower water contact angel (75.40°), better degradation, thermal stability and biocompatibility after incorporation of 20 wt% of O-MDPal, suggesting that O-MDPal contributed to enhancing the mechanical performance and water holding capacity of the CS/PVP nanocomposite films. Compared with the medical gauze and CS/PVP matrix groups, the nanocomposite films also indicated excellent hemostatic performance evaluated by blood loss and hemostasis time indexes based on the mouse tail amputation model, which might be ascribed to the enriched hemostatic functional sites, and hydrophilic surface, robust physical barrier role of nanocomposite films. Therefore, the nanocomposite film exhibited a promising practical application in wound healing.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 223:779-789. [PMID: 36370856 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.11.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 11/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
It is popular that natural organics are served as green reducing and end-capping reagent for synthesis of functional nanoparticles. In this study, curcumin, a natural pigment, was employed to prepare silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as a coloring, reducing and end-capping agent by an eco-friendly, economic and facile approach in the presence of different clay minerals, including palygorskite, montmorillonite and mixed-dimensional palygorskite clay. It was found that the phenolic hydroxyl groups or carbonyl groups of curcumin played a crucial role to reduce silver ions into AgNPs with the ginger color. Meanwhile, incorporation of clay minerals could induce the in-situ heterogeneous nucleation of AgNPs on the surface or/and interlayer of the involved clay minerals. It effectively prevented from the aggregations and resulted in uniform dispersion of AgNPs with a diameter of 30-40 nm. Furthermore, the as-prepared nanocomposites exhibited a higher antioxidant (>90%) and antibacterial activity. Due to the synergistic effect of each component among the nanocompositions, the nanocomposites derived from different clay minerals were employed as multifunctional nanofillers to design functional chitosan composite films. By contrast, the chitosan composite films containing curcumin-capped AgNPs/mixed-dimensional palygorskite clay nanocomposites exhibited the best mechanical properties, antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Compared with the chitosan films, the tensile strength and elongation at break of composite films increased by 15.90 MPa and 27.27%, respectively. The inactivation rate of the composite films against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus had reached 100%. Therefore, the obtained composite film with the ginger color exhibited excellent mechanical, water resistance, antioxidant and antibacterial properties, and it was expected to develop a great potential functional packaging materials.
