Abstract
Inspired by the attractive structures and functions of natural matter (such as cells, organelles and enzymes), chemists are constantly exploring innovative material platforms to mimic natural catalytic systems, particularly liquid-phase hydrogenations, which are of great significance for chemical upgrading and synthesis. Hollow structured nanoreactors (HSNRs), featuring unique nanoarchitectures and advantageous properties, offer new opportunities for achieving excellent catalytic activity, selectivity, stability and sustainability. Notwithstanding the great progress made in HSNRs, there still remain the challenges of precise synthetic chemistry, and mesoscale catalytic kinetic investigation, and smart catalysis. To this extent, we provide an overview of recent developments in the synthetic chemistry of HSNRs, the unique characteristics of these materials and catalytic mechanisms in HSNRs. Finally, a brief outlook, challenges and further opportunities for their synthetic methodologies and catalytic application are discussed. This review might promote the creation of further HSNRs, realize the sustainable production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and contribute to the development of materials science.

Enhancing C 2+ product selectivity in CO 2 electroreduction by enriching intermediates over carbon-based nanoreactors. Chem Sci 2024; 15:8451-8458.

Abstract
Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to multicarbon (C2+) products faces challenges of unsatisfactory selectivity and stability. Guided by finite element method (FEM) simulation, a nanoreactor with cavity structure can facilitate C-C coupling by enriching *CO intermediates, thus enhancing the selectivity of C2+ products. We designed a stable carbon-based nanoreactor with cavity structure and Cu active sites. The unique geometric structure endows the carbon-based nanoreactor with a remarkable C2+ product faradaic efficiency (80.5%) and C2+-to-C1 selectivity (8.1) during the CO2 electroreduction. Furthermore, it shows that the carbon shell could efficiently stabilize and highly disperse the Cu active sites for above 20 hours of testing. A remarkable C2+ partial current density of-323 mA cm-2 was also achieved in a flow cell device. In situ Raman spectra and density functional theory (DFT) calculation studies validated that the *COatop intermediates are concentrated in the nanoreactor, which reduces the free energy of C-C coupling. This work unveiled a simple catalyst design strategy that would be applied to improve C2+ product selectivity and stability by rationalizing the geometric structures and components of catalysts.

Abstract
Transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs) are recognized as highly efficient electrocatalysts and have wide applications in the field of hydrogen production by electrolysis of water, but the real catalytic substances and catalytic processes of these catalysts are not clear. The species evolution of Mo and Se during alkaline hydrogen evolution was investigated by constructing MoSe2@CoSe2 heterostructure. The real-time evolution of Mo and Se in MoSe2@CoSe2 was monitored using in situ Raman spectroscopy to determine the origin of the activity. Mo and Se in MoSe2@CoSe2 were dissolved in the form of MoO42- and SeO32-, respectively, and subsequently re-adsorbed and polymerized on the electrode surface to form new species Mo2O72- and SeO42-. Theoretical calculations show that adsorption of Mo2O72- and SeO42- can significantly enhance the HER catalytic activity of Co(OH)2. The addition of additional MoO42- and SeO32- to the electrolyte with Co(OH)2 electrodes both enhances its HER activity and promotes its durability. This study helps to deepen our insight into mechanisms involved in the structural changes of catalyst surfaces and offers a logical basis for revealing the mechanism of the influence of species evolution on catalytic performance.

Abstract
Uranium extraction from seawater (UES) is recognized as one of the seven pivotal chemical separations with the potential to revolutionize global paradigms. The forthcoming decade is anticipated to witness a surge in UES, driven by escalating energy demands. The oceanic reservoirs, possessing uranium quantities approximately 1000-fold higher than terrestrial mines, present a more sustainable and environmentally benign alternative. Empirical evidence from historical research indicates that adsorption emerges as the most efficacious process for uranium recovery from seawater, considering operational feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and selectivity. Over the years, scientific exploration has led to the development of a plethora of adsorbents with superior adsorption capacity. It would be efficient to design materials with a deep understanding of the adsorption from the perspective of kinetics and thermodynamics. Here, we summarize recent advancements in UES technology and the contemporary challenges encountered in this domain. Furthermore, we present our perspectives on the future trajectory of UES and finally offer our insights into this subject.

Abstract
Hollow nanoreactors (HoNRs) have regarded as an attractive catalytic material for photocatalysis due to their exceptional capabilities in enhancing light harvesting, facilitating charge separation and transfer, and optimizing surface reactions. Developing novel HoNRs offers new options to realize controllable catalytic behavior. However, the catalytic mechanism of photocatalysis occurring in HoNRs has not yet been fully revealed. Against this backdrop, this review elaborates on three aspects: 1) the fundamental theoretical insights of HoNRs-driven photocatalytic kinetics; 2) structure-performance relationship of HoNRs to photocatalysis; 3) catalytic advantages of HoNRs in photocatalytic applications. Specifically, the review focuses on the fundamental theories of HoNRs for photocatalysis and their structural advantages for strengthening light scattering, promoting charge separation and transfer, and facilitating surface reaction kinetics, and the relationship between key structural parameters of HoNRs and their photocatalytic performance is in-depth discussed. Also, future prospects and challenges are proposed. It is anticipated that this review paper will pave the way for forthcoming investigations in the realm of HoNRs for photocatalysis.

Abstract
The prevalence of mesoscale complexity in materials science underscores the significance of the compromise in competition principle, which gives rise to the emergence of mesoscience. This principle offers valuable insights into understanding the formation process, characteristics, and performance of complex material systems, ultimately guiding the future design of such intricate materials. Hollow multi-shelled structures (HoMS) represent a groundbreaking multifunctional structural system that encompasses several spatial regimes. A plethora of mesoscale cases within HoMS present remarkable opportunities for exploring, understanding, and utilizing mesoscience, varying from the formation process of HoMS, to the mesoscale structural parameters, and finally the distinctive mass/energy transfer behaviors exhibited by HoMS. The compromise in competition between the diffusion and reaction contributes to the successful formation of multi-shells of HoMS, allowing for precise regulation of the structural parameters by dynamically varying the interplay between two dominances. Moreover, the distinct roles played by the shells and cavities within HoMS significantly influence the energy/mass transfer processes with the unique temporal-spatial resolution, providing guidance for customizing the application performance. Hopefully, the empirical and theoretical anatomy of HoMS following mesoscience would fuel new discoveries within this promising and complex multifunctional material system.

Abstract
Engineering of the catalysts' structural stability and electronic structure could enable high-throughput H2 production over electrocatalytic water splitting. Herein, a double-shell interlayer confinement strategy is proposed to modulate the spatial position of Ru nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanoreactors for achieving tunable sizes and electronic structures toward enhanced H2 evolution. Specifically, the Ru can be anchored in either the inner layer (Ru-DSC-I) or the external shell (Ru-DSC-E) of double-shell nanoreactors, and the size of Ru is reduced from 2.2 to 0.9 nm because of the double-shell confinement effect. The electronic structures are efficiently optimized thereby stabilizing active sites and lowering the reaction barrier. According to finite element analysis results, the mesoscale mass diffusion can be promoted in the double-shell configuration. The Ru-DSC-I nanoreactor exhibits a much lower overpotential (η10 = 73.5 mV) and much higher stability (100 mA cm-2). Our work might shed light on the precise design of multishell catalysts with efficient refining electrostructures toward electrosynthesis applications.

Abstract
Hollow multi-shell mesoporous metal-organic framework (MOF) particles with accessible compartmentalization environments, plentiful heterogeneous interfaces, and abundant framework diversity are expected to hold great potential for catalysis, energy conversion, and biotechnology. However, their synthetic methodology has not yet been established. In this work, a facile dual-template-directed successive assembly approach has been developed for the preparation of monodisperse hollow multi-shell mesoporous MOF (UiO-66-NH2) particles through one-step selective etching of successively grown multi-layer MOFs with alternating two types of mesostructured layers. This strategy enables the preparation of hollow multi-shell mesoporous UiO-66-NH2 nanostructures with controllable shell numbers, accessible mesochannels, large pore volume, tunable shell thickness and chamber sizes. The methodology relies on creating multiple alternating layers of two different mesostructured MOFs via dual-template-directed successive assembly and their difference in framework stability upon chemical etching. Benefiting from the highly accessible Lewis acidic sites and the accumulation of reactants within the multi-compartment architecture, the resultant hollow multi-shell mesoporous UiO-66-NH2 particles exhibit enhanced catalytic activity for CO2 cycloaddition reaction. The dual-template-directed successive assembly strategy paves the way toward the rational construction of elaborate hierarchical MOF nanoarchitectures with specific physical and chemical features for different applications.

Abstract
Intermetallic nanomaterials have shown promising potential as high-performance catalysts in various catalytic reactions due to their unconventional crystal phases with ordered atomic arrangements. However, controlled synthesis of intermetallic nanomaterials with tunable crystal phases and unique hollow morphologies remains a challenge. Here, a seeded method is developed to synthesize hollow PdSn intermetallic nanoparticles (NPs) with two different intermetallic phases, that is, orthorhombic Pd2 Sn and monoclinic Pd3 Sn2 . Benefiting from the rational regulation of the crystal phase and morphology, the obtained hollow orthorhombic Pd2 Sn NPs deliver excellent electrocatalytic performance toward glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR), outperforming solid orthorhombic Pd2 Sn NPs, hollow monoclinic Pd3 Sn2 NPs, and commercial Pd/C, which places it among the best reported Pd-based GOR electrocatalysts. The reaction mechanism of GOR using the hollow orthorhombic Pd2 Sn as the catalyst is investigated by operando infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy, which reveals that the hollow orthorhombic Pd2 Sn catalyst cleaves the CC bond more easily compared to the commercial Pd/C. This work can pave an appealing route to the controlled synthesis of diverse novel intermetallic nanomaterials with hollow morphology for various promising applications.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US)-triggered sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is an emerging method for treating cancer due to its non-invasive nature and high-depth tissue penetration ability. However, current sonosensitizers commonly have unsatisfactory quantum yields of free radicals. In this work, we have developed unique organic semiconductor π-conjugated covalent organic framework nanocages (COFNs) as highly efficient sonosensitizers to boost free radical (1O2 and •OH) production and cancer therapy. With the hollow and porous structure and band transport behavior, COFNs displayed remarkably improved SDT performance through enhanced electron utilization and cavitation effect, with a 1.8-fold increase in US pressure and a 64.8% increase in 1O2 production relative to the core-shell-structured COF under US irradiation. The in vitro and in vivo experimental results verified the elevated SDT performance, showing a high tumor suppression of 91.4% against refractory breast cancer in mice. This work provides a promising strategy to develop high-performance sonosensitizers for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hollow-structured nanomaterials (HSNMs) have attracted increased interest in biomedical fields, owing to their excellent potential as drug delivery systems (DDSs) for clinical applications. Among HSNMs, hollow multi-shelled structures (HoMSs) exhibit properties such as high loading capacity, sequential drug release, and multi-functionalized modification and represent a new class of nanoplatforms for clinical applications. The remarkable properties of HoMS-based DDS can simultaneously satisfy and enhance DDSs for delivering small molecular drugs (e.g., antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, and imaging agents) and macromolecular drugs (e.g., protein/peptide- and nucleic acid-based drugs). First, the latest research advances in delivering small molecular drugs are summarized and highlight the inherent advantages of HoMS-based DDSs for small molecular drug targeting, combining continuous therapeutic drug delivery and theranostics to optimize the clinical benefit. Meanwhile, the macromolecular drugs DDSs are in the initial development stage and currently offer limited delivery modes. There is a growing need to analyze the deficiency of other HSNMs and integrate the advantages of HSNMs, providing solutions for the safe, stable, and cascade delivery of macromolecular drugs to meet vast treatment requirements. Therefore, the latest advances in HoMS-based DDSs are comprehensively reviewed, mainly focusing on the characteristics, research progress by drug category, and future research prospects.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization is critical to boosting its application in various areas. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are ideal hosts for enzyme immobilization due to their porous and predesignable structures. Nevertheless, the construction of COFs-based enzyme immobilization systems with high activity via existing immobilization methods (including covalent linkages and channel entrapment) remains a considerable challenge. Herein, a versatile approach was introduced to encapsulate enzymes within hollow COF capsule (named enzyme@COF) using metal-organic frameworks (including ZPF-1(C8H11N4O4.5Zn), ZIF-8(C8H10N4Zn), and ZIF-90(C8H6N4O2Zn)) as sacrificial templates. The obtained porous COF capsule could not only facilitate the efficient mass transfer of enzymatic reactions but also protect enzymes against the incompatible conditions, resulting in enhanced activity and stability of the encapsulated enzymes. Moreover, this approach offered an opportunity to spatially organize multienzymes in COF capsule to construct enzyme cascade system. For instance, glucose oxidase (GOx) and cytochrome c (Cyt c) were coencapsulated within COF capsule to construct GOx-Cyt c cascade. The integration of GOx and Cyt c within COF capsule achieved ∼1.6-fold improvement in catalytic activity than that of free enzymes and the resultant GOx-Cyt c@COF was successfully adopted as a nanoreactor for the sensitive determination of glucose in serum. This work provided a new insight into the design of COFs-based enzyme immobilization systems.

Abstract
Transition-metal oxides (TMOs) with a hollow multishelled structure have emerged as highly potential materials for high-performance electrochemical sensing, benefiting from their superior electronic conductivity, exceptionally large specific surface area, excellent stability, and electrochemistry properties. In particular, binary TMOs are expected to outperform unitary TMOs due to the synergistic effect of the different metals. Herein, MnCo2O4.5 hollow quadruple-shelled porous micropolyhedrons (MnCo2O4.5 HoQS-MPs) were prepared and employed to construct an ultrasensitive sensing platform for a multipesticide assay. Profiting from complex hollow interior structures and abundant active sites, the MnCo2O4.5 HoQS-MPs manifest outstanding electrochemical properties as electrode materials for the pesticide assay. The MnCo2O4.5 HoQS-MP-based biosensor demonstrated remarkable performance for monocrotophos, methamidophos, and carbaryl detection, with wide linear ranges, as well as low detection limits. This work unveils a new pathway for the ultrasensitive detection of pesticides and demonstrates tremendous potential for detecting other environmentally deleterious chemicals.

Abstract
Enzymes are a class of natural catalysts with high efficiency, specificity, and selectivity unmatched by their synthetic counterparts and dictate a myriad of reactions that constitute various cascades in living cells. The development of suitable supports is significant for the immobilization of structurally flexible enzymes, enabling biomimetic transformation in the extracellular environment. Accordingly, porous organic frameworks, including metal organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), have emerged as ideal supports for the immobilization of enzymes because of their structural features including ultrahigh surface area, tailorable porosity, and versatile framework compositions. Specially, organic framework-encased enzymes have shown significant enhancement in stability and reusability, and their tailorable pore opening provides a gatekeeper-like effect for guest sieving, which is beneficial for mimicking intracellular biocatalysis processes. This immobilization technique brings new insight into the development of next-generation enzyme materials and shows huge potential in healthcare applications, such as biomarker diagnosis, biostorage, and cancer and antibacterial therapies. In this review, we describe the state-of-the-art strategies for the structural immobilization of enzymes using the well-explored MOFs and burgeoning COFs and HOFs as scaffolds, with special emphasis on how these porous framework-confined technologies can provide a favorable microenvironment for mimicking natural biocatalysis. Subsequently, advanced characterization techniques for enzyme conformation, the effect of the confined microenvironment on the activity of enzymes, and the emerging healthcare applications will be surveyed.

Abstract
Heterointerface engineering is evolving as an effective approach to tune electromagnetic functional materials, but the mechanisms of heterointerfaces on microwave absorption (MA) remain unclear. In this work, abundant electromagnetic heterointerfaces are customized in multilevel hollow architecture via a one-step synergistic polymerizing-etching strategy. Fe/Fe3 O4 @C spindle-on-tube structures are transformed from FeOOH@polydopamine precursors by a controllable reduction process. The impressive electromagnetic heterostructures are realized on the Fe/Fe3 O4 @C hollow spindle arrays and induce strong interfacial polarization. The highly dispersive Fe/Fe3 O4 nanoparticles within spindles build multi-dimension magnetic networks, which enhance the interaction with incident microwaves and reinforce magnetic loss capacity. Moreover, the hierarchically hollow structure and electromagnetic synergistic components are conducive to the impedance matching between absorbing materials and air medium. Furthermore, the mechanisms of electromagnetic heterointerfaces on the MA are systematically investigated. Accordingly, the as-prepared hierarchical Fe/Fe3 O4 @C microtubes exhibit remarkable MA performance with a maximum refection loss of -55.4 dB and an absorption bandwidth of 4.2 GHz. Therefore, in this study, the authors not only demonstrate a synergistic strategy to design multilevel hollow architecture, but also provide a fundamental guide in heterointerface engineering of highly efficient electromagnetic functional materials.

Abstract
Robust and fast lithium energy storage with a high energy density is highly desired to accelerate the market adoption of electric vehicles. To realize such a goal requires the development of electrode materials with a high capacity, however, such electrode materials suffer from huge volume expansion and induced short cycling life. Here, using tin (Sn) as an example, an ideal structure is designed to effectively solve these problems by separately localizing multiple Sn nanoparticles in a nitrogen-doped carbon hollow multishelled structure with duplicated layers for carbon shell (Sn NPs@Nx C HoMS-DL). The fabricated composite can promote ion and electron diffusion owing to the conductive network formed by connected multiple shells and cores, effectively buffer the volume expansion, and maintain a stable electrode-electrolyte interface. Despite the challenging fabrication, such a structure is realized through an innovative and facile synthesis strategy of "in situ evolution of shell to core", which is applicable for diverse low-melting-point materials. As expected, such a structure enables the high-capacity electrode material to realize nearly its theoretical lithium-storage capability: the developed Sn NPs@Nx C HoMS-DL electrode maintains 96% of its theoretical capacity after 2000 cycles at 2C.

Abstract
Metal-zeolite composites with metal (oxide) and acid sites are promising catalysts for integrating multiple reactions in tandem to produce a wide variety of wanted products without separating or purifying the intermediates. However, the conventional design of such materials often leads to uncontrolled and non-ideal spatial distributions of the metal inside/on the zeolites, limiting their catalytic performance. Here we demonstrate a simple strategy for synthesizing double-shelled, contiguous metal oxide@zeolite hollow spheres (denoted as MO@ZEO DSHSs) with controllable structural parameters and chemical compositions. This involves the self-assembly of zeolite nanocrystals onto the surface of metal ion-containing carbon spheres followed by calcination and zeolite growth steps. The step-by-step formation mechanism of the material is revealed using mainly in situ Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction and ex situ electron microscopy. We demonstrate that it is due to this structure that an Fe2O3@H-ZSM-5 DSHSs-showcase catalyst exhibits superior performance compared with various conventionally structured Fe2O3-H-ZSM-5 catalysts in gasoline production by the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. This work is expected to advance the rational synthesis and research of hierarchically hollow, core-shell, multifunctional catalyst materials.

Abstract
Sodium and potassium ions energy storage systems with low cost and high energy/power densities have recently drawn increasing interest as promising candidates for grid-level applications, while the lack of suitable anode materials with fast ion diffusion kinetics highly hinders their development. Herein, we develop a nanoscale confined in situ oxidation polymerization process followed by a conventional carbonization treatment to generate phosphorus and nitrogen dual-doped hollow carbon spheres (PNHCS), which can realize superior sodium and potassium ion storage performance. Importantly, the density functional theory calculation and combined characterizations, e.g., in situ Raman spectroscopy and ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, decipher that the P/N doping can enhance the electronic transfer dynamics and ion adsorption capability, which are responsible for enhanced electrochemical performance. Inspiringly, the practicability of the PNHCS anode is demonstrated by assembling the potassium ion hybrid capacitors (KIHCs), where the prominent energy density is 178.80 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 197.65 W kg-1, with excellent cycling stability, can be achieved. This work not only promotes the development of efficient anode material for sodium/potassium ion storage devices but also deciphers the embedded ion storage mechanism.

Abstract
Electrochemical two-electron water oxidation reaction (2e-WOR) provides a promising alternative route for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production, where the design of earth abundant and environmentally friendly electrocatalysts with both high selectivity and production rate is crucial. Here we report the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles embedded in hollow carbon fiber membrane as efficient 2e-WOR electrocatalyst by a metal-organic framework engaged electrospinning-pyrolysis method. The resultant ZnO@carbon composite fiber exhibits a foam-like hierarchical structure composed of interconnected hollow carbon nanocubes encapsulated with oxygen vacancy rich ZnO nanocrystals. Owing to the improved selectivity of ZnO, excellent conductivity of carbon fiber, promoted active site exposure and mass transfer of hollow structure, the free-standing membrane electrode shows superior 2e-WOR performances with high selectivity (83.8% at 2.8 V vs. RHE), H2O2 generation rate (19.7 μmol cm-2 min-1) and robust stability.

Abstract
Literature reports have shown that in primary structures, single-atom catalysts exhibit better performance than cluster and nanoparticles due to their maximum atom utilization and the fine-tuning of the electronic structure of the active sites. Hierarchical structures have recently been extensively studied because of increased active sites and orderliness of channels significantly improves the catalytic performance compare to primary structures especially in nanoparticles, however, the different sized effect of catalysts research has not been reported. Herein, a unique hollow double-shell structure (a distinct cavity-containing) is used as a hierarchical model to study the possible difference between single atom, cluster, and nanoparticle and to establish the corresponding structure-activity relationship. Three Co catalysts are prepared: single atoms (Co-Catalyst-1), clusters (Co-Catalyst-2, 0.5-1 nm), and nanoparticles (Co-Catalyst-3, ≈5 nm) and their oxygen-reduction capacity is evaluated. The unique electronic interactions, the strong electron-withdrawing ability of N in Co-N4 (Co-Catalyst-1), attract electrons from the electrode to Co, specifically by expediting the generation and transformation of the rate-determining step intermediates *OOH. The variant spatial structure which is caused by Co atom aggregation, and led to surface area, pore size, and carbon disorder, is a distinct, therefore significant variation in mass and charge transport efficiency, and activities.

Abstract
Hollow structures have demonstrated great potential in drug delivery owing to their privileged structure, such as high surface-to-volume ratio, low density, large cavities, and hierarchical pores. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of hollow structured materials applied in targeting recognition, smart response, and drug release, and we have addressed the possible chemical factors and reactions in these three processes. The advantages of hollow nanostructures are summarized as follows: hollow cavity contributes to large loading capacity; a tailored structure helps controllable drug release; variable compounds adapt to flexible application; surface modification facilitates smart responsive release. Especially, because the multiple physical barriers and chemical interactions can be induced by multishells, hollow multishelled structure is considered as a promising material with unique loading and releasing properties. Finally, we conclude this review with some perspectives on the future research and development of the hollow structures as drug carriers.

Abstract
Rational nanostructure design has proved fruitful in addressing the bottlenecks of diverse fields. Especially hollow multi-shelled structures (HoMS) have stood out due to their temporal-spatial ordering mass transfer and buffering effect. Localizing multiple cores in a HoMS is highly desired, which could endow it with more fascinating properties. However, such a structure has been barely reported due to the highly challenging fabrication. Here, we develop a controllable synthesis strategy to realize such a structure, which is applicable for diverse cores and shells. Additionally, cores and shells could be tuned to be homogeneous or heterogeneous, with the core and shell number well controlled. In situ TEM analysis verifies that the inner shell confines the expansion orientation of cores, while the outer shell maintains a stable interface. In addition to energy storage, such structure is also promising for multi-drug co-delivery and sequential responsive release as well as tandem catalysis applications.

Abstract
Despite great achievement that has been made in the synthesis of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), precise construction of COFs with well-defined nano/microstructures poses a rigorous challenge. Herein, we introduce a simple template-free strategy for controllable synthesis of hollow microtubular COFs. The obtained COFs show a spontaneous morphology transformation from a microfiber to a hollow microtubular structure when the concentrations of catalytic acid are regulated elaborately. Furthermore, the as-prepared COFs exhibit high crystallinity, well-defined hollow tubular morphology, and high surface areas (∼2600 m2/g). Taking the advantages of the unique morphological structure, the hollow microtubular COFs can serve as an ideal host material for enzymes. The resultant biocomposites show high catalytic performance and can be successfully applied to rapid and high-efficiency proteolysis of proteins. This work blazes a trail for controllable synthesis of the hollow microtubular COFs through a template-free process and expands the application of COFs as a promising platform for enzyme immobilization.

Abstract
Functional carbon nanospheres are exceptionally useful, yet controllable synthesis of them with well-defined porosity and complex multi-shelled nanostructure remains challenging. Here, we report a lamellar micelle spiral self-assembly strategy to synthesize multi-shelled mesoporous carbon nanospheres with unique chirality. This synthesis features the introduction of shearing flow to drive the spiral self-assembly, which is different from conventional chiral templating methods. Furthermore, a continuous adjustment in the amphipathicity of surfactants can cause the packing parameter changes, namely, micellar structure transformations, resulting in diverse pore structures from single-porous, to radial orientated, to flower-like, and to multi-shelled configurations. The self-supported spiral architecture of these multi-shelled carbon nanospheres, in combination with their high surface area (~530 m2 g−1), abundant nitrogen content (~6.2 weight %), and plentiful mesopores (~2.5 nm), affords them excellent electrochemical performance for potassium-ion storage. This simple but powerful micelle-directed self-assembly strategy offers inspiration for future nanostructure design of functional materials.

Abstract
Nanozyme has been regarded as one of the antibacterial agents to kill bacteria via a Fenton-like reaction in the presence of H2O2. However, it still suffers drawbacks such as insufficient catalytic activity in near-neutral conditions and the requirement of high H2O2 levels, which would minimize the side effects to healthy tissues. Herein, a mesoporous ceria hollow sphere/enzyme nanoreactor is constructed by loading glucose oxidase in the mesoporous ceria hollow sphere nanozyme. Due to the mesoporous framework, large internal voids, and high specific surface area, the obtained nanoreactor can effectively convert the nontoxic glucose into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals via a cascade catalytic reaction. Moreover, the generated glucose acid can decrease the localized pH value, further boosting the peroxidase-like catalytic performance of mesoporous ceria. The generated hydroxyl radicals could damage severely the cell structure of the bacteria and prevent biofilm formation. Moreover, the in vivo experiments demonstrate that the nanoreactor can efficiently eliminate 99.9% of bacteria in the wound tissues and prevent persistent inflammation without damage to normal tissues in mice. This work provides a rational design of a nanoreactor with enhanced catalytic activity, which can covert glucose to hydroxyl radicals and exhibits potential applications in antibacterial therapy.

The role of crystallinity and particle morphology on the sorption of dibutyl phthalate on polyethylene microplastics: Implications for the behavior of phthalate plastic additives. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2021; 283:117393. [PMID: 34034021 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2021.117393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Revised: 04/20/2021] [Accepted: 05/13/2021] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
The sorption behavior of phthalate additives in plastic and microplastic litter is an important process controlling the exposure, net health risk and ecotoxicity of these co-occurring pollutants. Plastic crystallinity and particle morphology are hypothesized to be important variables for microplastics sorption behavior, but to date there have been few direct studies to explicitly test for the influence of these parameters. To address this, in this study we explored the sorption of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) as a probe molecule to diverse polyethylene microplastics including irregularly-shaped pure polyethylene microplastics (IPPM), black plastic film microplastics (BPFM), white plastic film microplastics (WPFM), and commercial microspheres (CM), which had crystallinities ranging from 17 to 99%. Sorption kinetics for all materials could be well represented with both a pseudo-first-order (R2 = 0.87-0.93) and pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.87-0.93). Further, sorption was highly linear in the concentration range of 0.5-10 mg L-1, with no greater performance from a linear sorption model (R2 = 0.96-0.99) than the non-linear Freundlich or Temkin sorption models. The partition coefficient (Kd) of DBP sorption onto IPPM, BPFM, WPFM and CMs were 1974.55 L kg-1, 1483.85 L kg-1, 1477.45 L kg-1 and 509.37 L kg-1, respectively, showing a significant decrease with increasing crystallinity (r2 = 0.98). The particle size of microplastics (27-1000 μm) is, however, an indecisive factor affecting their sorption behavior for DBP in this study. This study provides new insight that crystallinity plays a governing role on the sorption of phthalate from microplastic. This should be considered in future exposure studies and assessments of phthalates from plastics and microplastics.

Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POMs)-based materials, with high theoretical capacities and abundant reversible multi-electron redox properties, are considered as promising candidates in lithium-ion storage. However, the poor electronic conductivity, low specific surface area and high solubility in the electrolyte limited their practical applications. Herein, a double-shelled hollow PMo12 -SiO2 @N-C nanofiber (PMo12 -SiO2 @N-C, where PMo12 is [PMo12 O40 ]3- , N-C is nitrogen-doped carbon) was fabricated for the first time by combining coaxial electrospinning technique, thermal treatment and electrostatic adsorption. As an anode material for LIBs, the PMo12 -SiO2 @N-C delivered an excellent specific capacity of 1641 mA h g-1 after 1000 cycles under 2 A g-1 . The excellent electrochemical performance benefited from the unique double-shelled hollow structure of the material, in which the outermost N-C shell cannot only hinder the agglomeration of PMo12 , but also improve its electronic conductivity. The SiO2 inner shell can efficiently avoid the loss of active components. The hollow structure can buffer the volume expansion and accelerate Li+ diffusion during lithiation/delithiation process. Moreover, PMo12 can greatly reduce charge-resistance and facilitate electron transfer of the entire composites, as evidenced by the EIS kinetics study and lithium-ion diffusion analysis. This work paves the way for the fabrication of novel POM-based LIBs anode materials with excellent lithium storage performance.

Abstract
A facile strategy was introduced for room-temperature controllable synthesis of hierarchically flower-like hollow COFs (FHF-COFs). Furthermore, the universality for synthesis of the HFH-COFs was validated by altering the building units. Inspired by the unique morphology, extremely large surface area and good chemical stability, HFH-COFs could serve as an attractive adsorption probe by loading with gold nanoparticles and be applied to enrichment of brain natriuretic peptide from human serum. This work opens up a whole new approach for controllable synthesis of the HFH-COFs at room temperature and expands the application of COFs as a promising enrichment probe for complex biological samples.

Abstract
Nanostructures with well-defined structures and rich active sites occupy an important position for efficient energy storage and conversion. Recent studies have shown that a transition metal chalcogenide (TMC) has a unique structure, such as diverse structural morphology, excellent stability, high efficiency, etc., and is used in the fields of electrochemistry and catalysis. The nanohollow structure metal chalcogenide has broad application prospects due to the existence of a large number of active sites and a wide internal space, allowing a large number of ions and electrons to be transported. Summarizing synthetic strategies of nanostructured hollow transition metal sulfides (HTMC) and their applications in the field of energy storage and conversion is discussed here. Through some representative examples, the fabrication and properties of various hollow structures are analyzed, which prompt some emerging nanoengineering designs to be applied to transition metal chalcogenides. It is hoped that the construction of the HTMC will lead to a deeper understanding for the further exploration of energy storage and conversion.

Abstract
Nickel manganite nanocrystalline fibers were obtained by electrospinning and subsequent calcination at 400 °C. As-spun fibers were characterized by TG/DTA, Scanning Electron Microscopy and FT-IR spectroscopy analysis. X-ray diffraction and FT-IR spectroscopy analysis confirmed the formation of nickel manganite with a cubic spinel structure, while N2 physisorption at 77 K enabled determination of the BET specific surface area as 25.3 m2/g and (BJH) mesopore volume as 21.5 m2/g. The material constant (B) of the nanocrystalline nickel manganite fibers applied by drop-casting on test interdigitated electrodes on alumina substrate, dried at room temperature, was determined as 4379 K in the 20–50 °C temperature range and a temperature sensitivity of −4.95%/K at room temperature (25 °C). The change of impedance with relative humidity was monitored at 25 and 50 °C for a relative humidity (RH) change of 40 to 90% in the 42 Hzπ1 MHz frequency range. At 100 Hz and 25 °C, the sensitivity of 327.36 ± 80.12 kΩ/%RH was determined, showing that nickel manganite obtained by electrospinning has potential as a multifunctional material for combined humidity and temperature sensing.

Abstract
A facile spray pyrolysis method is introduced to construct the hollow CeO2-Al2O3 spheres with atomically dispersed Fe. Only nitrates and ethanol were involved during the one-step preparation process using the ultrasound spray pyrolysis approach. Detailed explorations demonstrated that differences in the pyrolysis temperature of the precursors and heat transfer are crucial to the formation of the hollow nanostructure. In addition, iron species were in situ atomically dispersed on the as-formed CeO2-Al2O3 hollow spheres via this strategy, which demonstrated promising potential in transferring syn-gas to valuable gasoline products.

Abstract
In the study of structure-property relationships for rational materials design, hollow multishell structures (HoMSs) have attracted tremendous attention owing to the optimal balance between mass transfer and surface exposure. Considering the shell structure can significantly affect the properties of HoMSs, in this paper, we provide a novel one-step strategy to continually regulate the shell structures of HoMSs. Through a simple phosphorization process, we can effectively modify the shell from solid to bubble-like and even duplicate the shells with a narrow spacing. Benefitting from the structure merits, the fabricated CoP HoMSs with close duplicated shells can promote gas release owing to the unbalanced Laplace pressure, while accelerating liquid transfer for enhanced capillary force. It can provide effective channels for water and gas and thus exhibits a superior electrocatalytic performance in the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reaction.

Abstract
The continuous growth of fossil fuel consumption and large amounts of CO2 emissions have caused global energy crisis and climate change. The employment of semiconductor photocatalysts to convert CO2 into value-added products has attracted extensive attention and research worldwide in recent years. However, it is difficult for a single-component semiconductor photocatalyst to achieve this goal efficiently due to its drawbacks, such as low quantum efficiency, limited surface area, limited number of active sites, the short lifetime of photogenerated carriers, poor long-term stability, and the weak redox ability of carriers. Fortunately, inspired by photosynthesis, the construction of an artificial Z-scheme heterojunction has brought a new dawn for the realization of this goal. The Z-scheme heterojunction has a high separation efficiency of electron-hole pairs with strong redox ability and a wide light response range. The abovementioned advantages make the Z-scheme heterojunction provide a great opportunity for the conversion of CO2 to value-added chemicals. This review concisely reports the progress of the Z-scheme heterojunction in the field of photocatalytic CO2 reduction in recent years, photocatalytic mechanism, choice of oxidation and reduction systems, strategies for improving efficiency, confirmation of the Z-scheme charge transport mechanism, problems and challenges, and the prospects for the future.

Abstract
Hollow multishelled structures (HoMSs) provide a promising platform for fabricating photocatalysts, because the unique structure optimizes the effective surface and mass transport, showing enhanced light absorption, optimized mass transport and highly effective active sites exposed. Subsequently, the rational design on HoMS photocatalytsts is elaborated to boost the photocatalytic activity with efforts in all dimensions, from nanoscale to microscale. Breakthroughs in synthetic methodology of HoMSs have greatly evoked the prosperous photocatalytic researches for HoMSs since the developing of sequential templating approach in 2009. The dawn of HoMS photocatalyst is coming after revealing the temporal-spatial ordering property, which is also discussed in this paper with pioneer works demonstrating the greatly enhanced energy/mass transfer processes. Some insights into the key challenges and perspectives of HoMSs photocatalysts are also discussed. With the reviewed fate and future of HoMSs photocatalysts, hopefully new concepts and innovative works can be inspired to flourish this sun-rise field.

Natl Sci Rev 2020; 7:1638-1646. [PMID: 34691499 PMCID: PMC8290956 DOI: 10.1093/nsr/nwaa059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2019] [Revised: 03/01/2020] [Accepted: 03/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
In nature, sequential harvesting of light widely exists in the old life entity, i.e. cyanobacteria, to maximize the light absorption and enhance the photosynthesis efficiency. Inspired by nature, we propose a brand new concept of temporally-spatially sequential harvesting of light in one single particle, which has purpose-designed heterogeneous hollow multi-shelled structures (HoMSs) with porous shells composed of nanoparticle subunits. Structurally, HoMSs consist of different band-gap materials outside-in, thus realizing the efficient harvesting of light with different wavelengths. Moreover, introducing oxygen vacancies into each nanoparticle subunit can also enhance the light absorption. With the benefit of sequential harvesting of light in HoMSs, the quantum efficiency at wavelength of 400 nm is enhanced by six times compared with the corresponding nanoparticles. Impressively, using these aforementioned materials as photocatalysts, highly efficient photocatalytic water splitting is realized, which cannot be achieved by using the nanoparticle counterparts. This new concept of temporally-spatially sequential harvesting of solar light paves the way for solving the ever-growing energy demand.
