Abstract
The performance of catalytic ability of MFe2O4/MoS2 in the ozonation process was investigated in this work. The synthesized MnFe2O4/MoS2 was optimize prepared and then characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy, and magnetic saturation strength. The results showed that when Cphenol = 200 mg/L, initial pH = 9.0, Q = 0.10 L/min, and CMnFe2O4/MoS2 = 0.10 g/L, MnFe2O4/MoS2 addition improved the degradation efficiency of phenol by 20.0%. The effects of pH, catalyst dosage, and inorganic ions on the phenol removal by the MnFe2O4/MoS2 catalytic ozonation were investigated. Five cycle experiments proved that MnFe2O4/MoS2 had good recyclability and stability. MnFe2O4/MoS2 also showed good catalytic performance in the treatment of coal chemical wastewater pesticide wastewater. The MnFe2O4 doped with MoS2 could provide abundant surface active sites for ozone and promote the stable cycle of Mn2+/Mn3+and Fe2+/Fe3+, thus generating large amounts of •OH and improving the degradation of phenol by ozonation. The MnFe2O4/MoS2/ozonation treatment system provides a technical reference and theoretical basis for industrial wastewater treatment.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127397. [PMID: 37827402 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
In order to improve the adsorption performance of MoS2, as well as to solve the problems of MoS2-powder in adsorption, which is prone to agglomeration and difficulty to be recycled, we prepared MoS2-nanoflowers(MoS2-NFs), and mixed them with sodium alginate/polyvinyl alcohol(SA/PVA) to prepare MoS2-NFs/SA/PVA xerogel(MSP) by freezing-lyophilization. Then two forms of xerogels - block-MSP(MSPB) and spherical-MSP(MSPS) were prepared, and they were used as methylene blue(MB) and Cu2+ adsorbent. It was found that MoS2-NFs were evenly dispersed inside the SA/PVA with no agglomeration, while the interior of MSPB/MSPS showed the structure of parallel-pores and radial-pores, respectively. The adsorption capacity of MSPB/MSPS on MB can reach 233 mg/g, which is five times higher than SA/PVA-gel, showing excellent synergistic-adsorption effect, and the adsorption capacity for Cu2+ reaches 271 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism indicated that the adsorption of MB by MSPB/MSPS conformed to pseudo-first-order model, with electrostatic force as the main force. And their adsorption of Cu2+ conformed to pseudo-second-order model and was dominated by Lewis acid/base soft-soft interactions. Notably, after long-term adsorption, MSPB/MSPS maintains its shape and more than 90 % of the adsorption capacity, ensuring the recovery and reuse of materials. So, MSPB/MSPS has great potential in adsorption, providing a new solution for sewage purification.

Abstract
Crystal violet (CV) is an organic dye that is stabilized by the extensive resonance delocalization of electrons over three electron-donating amine groups. This prevents the molecule from being linked to a metal surface, and therefore, reduces the sensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors for this toxic dye. In this work, we improved the sensing performance of a silver-based SERS sensor for CV detection by modifying the active substrate. Molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) nanosheets were employed as a scaffold for anchoring electrochemically synthesized silver nanoparticles (e-AgNPs) through a single step of ultrasonication, leading to the formation of MoS2/Ag nanocomposites. As an excellent adsorbent, MoS2 promoted the adsorption of CV onto the surface of the substrate, allowing more CV molecules to be able to experience the SERS effect originating from the e-AgNPs. Hence, the SERS signal of CV was significantly enhanced. In addition, the effects of the MoS2 content of the nanocomposites on their SERS performance were also taken into account. Using MoS2/Ag with the most optimal MoS2 content of 10%, the SERS sensor exhibited the best enhancement of the SERS signal of CV with an impressive detection limit of 1.17 × 10-11 M in standard water and 10-9 M in tap water thanks to an enhancement factor of 2.9 × 106, which was 11.2 times higher than that using pure e-AgNPs.

Abstract
Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted tremendous interest from the scientific community in recent years due to their extreme safety, cost-effectiveness, environmental benignity and the unique properties of the Zn anode. However, more suitable cathode materials are needed to achieve their potential widespread applications. MoS2, a 2D layered material with fascinating properties, could also serve as a cathode in ZIBs but is rarely studied due to its limited interlayer spacing, poor ionic/electronic conductivity and hydrophobicity. In this work, we report a facile hydrothermal method for synthesizing crystal water-intercalated MoS2 nanosheets and their application in efficient Zn-ion storage. Morphological characterization reveals the average thickness of the nanosheets to be 15.2 nm. With a large interlayer spacing (0.79 nm), high 1T content (49.7%) and high defects, MoS2·nH2O achieves a high discharge capacity of 197 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 in an aqueous 2 M ZnSO4 electrolyte. Moreover, it exhibits modest cyclic stability with 55% capacity retention after 1000 charge/discharge cycles. Furthermore, we evaluated the charge storage kinetics of crystal water-intercalated MoS2 nanosheets and realized that the electrochemical reaction is diffusion dominated with a diffusion coefficient of 10-10 to 10-13 cm2 s-1 in a 0.3 to 1.3 V potential window. This simple and cost-effective strategy for improving the performance of ZIBs by crystal water intercalation in 2D cathode materials will pave the way for their commercial-level grid-scale applications.

Abstract
The MoS2-based reduced graphene oxide aerogel (MoS2-rGOA)-assisted organic transformation reactions are presented. MoS2-rGOA is used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the reduction of benzene derivatives such as benzaldehyde, nitrobenzene, and benzonitrile to benzyl alcohol, aniline, and benzamide and their derivatives, respectively, in green solvents (water/methanol) and green reducing agents (hydrazine hydrate having N2 and H2 as byproducts). The mechanistic features of the reduction pathway, substrate scope, and the best suitable conditions by varying the temperature, solvent, reducing agent, catalyst loading, time, etc. are optimized. All of the synthesized products are obtained in quantitative yield with purity and well characterized based on nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. Further, it is also observed that our catalyst is efficiently recyclable and works well checked up to 5 cycles.

Abstract
The use of solar photocatalysts to degrade organic pollutants is not only the most promising and efficient strategy to solve pollution problems today but also helps to alleviate the energy crisis. In this work, MoS2/SnS2 heterogeneous structure catalysts were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method, and the microstructures and morphologies of these catalysts were investigated using XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, XPS and EIS. Eventually, the optimal synthesis conditions of the catalysts were obtained as 180 °C for 14 h, with the molar ratio of molybdenum to tin atoms being 2:1 and the acidity and alkalinity of the solution adjusted by hydrochloric acid. TEM images of the composite catalysts synthesized under these conditions clearly show that the lamellar SnS2 grows on the surface of MoS2 at a smaller size; high-resolution TEM images show lattice stripe distances of 0.68 nm and 0.30 nm for the (002) plane of MoS2 and the (100) plane of SnS2, respectively. Thus, in terms of microstructure, it is confirmed that the MoS2 and SnS2 in the composite catalyst form a tight heterogeneous structure. The degradation efficiency of the best composite catalyst for methylene blue (MB) was 83.0%, which was 8.3 times higher than that of pure MoS2 and 16.6 times higher than that of pure SnS2. After four cycles, the degradation efficiency of the catalyst was 74.7%, indicating a relatively stable catalytic performance. The increase in activity could be attributed to the improved visible light absorption, the increase in active sites introduced at the exposed edges of MoS2 nanoparticles and the construction of heterojunctions opening up photogenerated carrier transfer pathways and effective charge separation and transfer. This unique heterostructure photocatalyst not only has excellent photocatalytic performance but also has good cycling stability, which provides a simple, convenient and low-cost method for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants.

Abstract
Photocatalytic degradation of dye contaminants using nanocomposite adsorbents has emerged as a promising solution for wastewater treatment. Owing to its abundant availability, eco-friendly composition, biocompatibility, and strong adsorption activity, spent tea leaf (STL) powder has been extensively explored as a viable dye-adsorbent material. In this work, we report spectacular enhancement in the dye-degradation properties of STL powder on incorporation of ZnIn2S4 (ZIS). The STL/ZIS composite was synthesized using a novel, benign, and scalable aqueous chemical solution method. Comparative degradation and reaction kinetics studies were performed onto an anionic dye, Congo red (CR), and two cationic dyes, Methylene blue (MB) and Crystal violet (CV). The degradation efficiencies of CR, MB, and CV dyes were obtained to be 77.18, 91.29, and 85.36%, respectively, using the STL/ZIS (30%) composite sample after the 120 min experiment. The spectacular improvement in the degradation efficiency of the composite was attributed to its slower charge transfer resistance (as concluded by the EIS study) and optimized surface charge (as concluded by ζ potential study). Scavenger tests and reusability tests deciphered the active species (•O2-) and reusability of the composite samples, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to demonstrate improvement in the degradation efficiency of STL powder on ZIS incorporation.

Abstract
Bimetallic sulfides have distinctive catalytic property in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for water remediation. Polyoxometalates as potential precursors have rarely been reported for the catalytic degradation of refractory organic pollutants. Herein, a composite catalyst of Co-Mo bimetallic sulfides supported onto graphene oxide (O-CoMoS/GO) with a heterojunction architecture was synthesized through a hydrothermal strategy with polyoxometalates ((NH4)4[CoIIMo6O24H6]·6H2O) as the precursor and applied in the PMS activation. This material showed a superior performance for the catalytic degradation of the model organic pollutant, 4-chlorophenol (rapidly removed within 10 min with an apparent reaction rate constant of 0.5458 min-1). O-CoMoS/GO outperformed most of the reported catalysts in terms of activity and had a strong tolerance towards common organic and inorganic compounds in water, and could perform well in different real water systems. Experimental and theoretical results indicated that the introduction of GO could achieve the enrichment of electrons on the metals and reduce the d band center (εd) of Co close to the Fermi level (εF), thereby facilitating the interfacial electron transfer process. The activation mechanism was due to the as-prepared bimetallic sulfides and the formation of heterojunction structure with GO, where Co(II) as the active center could be regenerated by the adjacent Mo element (as co-catalyst) and by gathering electrons from GO through the Co/Mo-O-C coupling. This work provides insights into the design of bimetallic sulfide catalysts in activating PMS for water remediation.

Abstract
Surfactant foam (SF) can be used to remediate petroleum-contaminated soil because of its easy transfer to inhomogeneous and low-permeability formations. Nanoparticles (NPs) not only stabilize SF under extreme conditions but also impart various functions, aiding the removal of petroleum contaminants. This review discusses the stabilization mechanisms of nanoparticle-stabilized SF (NP-SF) as well as the effects of NP size, chargeability, wettability, and NP-to-surfactant ratio on foam stability. SF stabilized by inert SiO2 NPs is most commonly used to remediate soil contaminated with crude oil and diesel. Low dose of SF stabilized by nano zero-valent iron is cost-effective for treating soil contaminated with chlorinated organics and heavy metal ions. The efficiency and recyclability of Al2O3/Fe3O4 NPs in the remediation of diesel and crude oil contamination could be enhanced by applying a magnetic field. This review provides a theoretical basis and practical guidelines for developing functional NP-SF to improve the remediation of petroleum-contaminated soils. Future research should focus on the structural design of photocatalytic NPs and the application of catalytic NP-SF in soil remediation.

Abstract
Molecular functionalization has been intensely studied and artificially constructed to advance various electrocatalytic processes. While there is a widely approved charge-doping effect, the underlying action for reactant distribution/transport remains long neglected. Here an on-chip microdevice unravels that the proton enrichment effect at prototypical methylene blue (MB)/MoS2 interfaces rather than charge doping contributes to the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. Back-gated electrical/electrochemical tests detect quantitatively a strong charge injection from MB to MoS2 realized over diploid carrier density, but these excess carriers are unqualified for the actual enhanced HER activity (from 32 to 125 mA cm-2 at -0.29 V). On-chip electrochemical impedance further certifies that the proton enrichment in the vicinity of MoS2, which is generated by the nucleophilic group of MB, actually dominates the HER activity. This finding uncovers the leading function of molecular-linked catalysts.

Abstract
Present work addresses the synthesis of microporous activated carbon (SDAC) by a facile thermochemical conversion of teak sawdust powder. The high surface area (1999 m2 g-1), excellent microporosity (average pore size: 2.62 nm), and turbostratic carbon structure with intertwined graphitic domains make SDAC a highly efficient adsorptive material for the removal of organic pollutants. The spectroscopic analyses (FTIR, Raman, and XPS) and adsorption locator calculations revealed multiple interactions between organic dyes and SDAC adsorbent, i.e., electrostatic, π-π, n-π interactions, and hydrogen linkages. The size, chemical functionalities, aromatic rings, electronegative and heteroatoms in dye molecules, along with the surface-active sites, microstructured and textural features of SDAC adsorbent collectively governed the interaction pathways and adsorption efficiency. The calculated adsorption energy using Monte Carlo-based simulation annealing method signified faster and higher adsorption of malachite green than methylene blue dye at surface-active sites (-COOH, CO, C-OH, and π-electron-rich domains) of SDAC adsorbent, corroborating the experimental results. The batch-mode adsorptive separation results showed remarkably high adsorption efficiency (>99%) for industrial wastewater to remove cationic and anionic dyes together. The SDAC displayed significantly high adsorption of methylene blue dye (625 mg.g-1) with excellent recyclability without measurable loss of adsorption efficiency even after ten cycles. The SDAC fixed-bed column showed a dye removal capacity of 594 mg.g-1 at 90% breakthrough in a continuous-mode process signifying its applicability for a real-time industrial run. The excellent conformity between batch mode and fixed bed continuous column adsorption data, along with higher removal capacity and remarkable recyclability, promise the use of SDAC adsorbent for industrial wastewater treatment to remove multiple organic pollutants.

Abstract
Two-dimensional MoS2 with a controllable morphology was prepared via a simple one-step hydrothermal method. Citric acid was used as a complexing agent and self-assembly inducer. The morphology of MoS2 changed from clusters to nanosheets, and, eventually, to stacked nanorods. A formation mechanism is proposed for the observed evolution of the morphology. The nanosheet structure presents a relatively large specific surface area, more exposed active sites and greater 1T phase content compared to the other morphologies. The electrochemical performance tests show that the MoS2 nanosheets exhibit excellent electrochemical behavior. Their specific capacitance is 320.5 F g-1, and their capacitance retention is up to 95% after 5000 cycles at 5 mA cm-2. This work provides a feasible approach for changing the morphology of MoS2 for high efficiency electrode materials for supercapacitors.

Abstract
In this study, flower-like MoS2 nanomaterials were synthesized by hydrothermal method with excess thiourea. The adsorption performance of MoS2 adsorbent for methylene blue (MB) in azo dye wastewater was studied. The morphology, crystal phase, and microstructure of nano MoS2 samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effects of adsorption isotherm, kinetics, different hydrothermal time, and pH on the adsorption experiment were studied. The results showed that the MoS2 adsorbent with a hydrothermal time of 1 h had good adsorption properties for MB. The adsorption data accord with the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum adsorption capacity of MoS2 adsorbent is 200 mg/g, and the adsorption kinetics agrees well with the pseudo two-level model. The removal rate of MB is not significantly affected by the pH values. The large pH range can still maintain the removal rate above 93.47%, and the regeneration and recovery properties of MoS2 were also explored. Finally, the adsorption mechanism of MoS2 on MB is discussed.

Abstract
High sensitivity and capturing ratio are strongly demanded for surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors when applied in detection of small molecules. Herein, an SPR sensor is combined with a novel smart material, namely, MoS2 nanoflowers (MNFs), to demonstrate programmable adsorption/desorption of small bipolar molecules, i.e., amino acids. The MNFs overcoated on the plasmonic gold layer increase the sensitivity by 25% compared to an unmodified SPR sensor, because of the electric field enhancement at the gold surface. Furthermore, as the MNFs have rich edge sites and negatively charged surfaces, the MNF-SPR sensors exhibit not only much higher bipolar-molecule adsorption capability, but also efficient desorption of these molecules. It is demonstrated that the MNF-SPR sensors enable controllable detection of amino acids by adjusting solution pH according to their isoelectric points. In addition, the MNFs decorated on the plasmonic interface can be as nanostructure frameworks and modified with antibody, which allows for specific detection of proteins. This novel SPR sensor provides a new simple strategy for pre-screening of amino acid disorders in blood plasma and a universal high-sensitive platform for immunoassay.

Abstract
Rhodamine B (RhB) dye used in the textile industries is associated with carcinogenic and neurotoxic effects with a high potential to cause a variety of human diseases. Semiconductor photocatalysts synthesised through agriculture waste extracts exhibited high efficiency for RhB removal. The current review aimed to explore the efficiency and mechanism of RhB degradation using different photocatalysts that have been used in recent years, as well as the effect of various factors on the removal process. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) synthesised from plant extract is the most effective for the RhB degradation with the efficiency reaching 100% after 210 min. The photocatalysis process depends on the pH because pH changes the balance of water dissociation, which impacts the formation of hydroxyl radicals and the surface load of the catalyst. Analysis using Jupyter Notebook revealed a strong correlation between the concentration of ZnO NPs and the photocatalysis efficiency (R = 0.72). These findings reveal that man-sized photocatalysts have a high potential for removing RhB from the wastewater.

Abstract
A facile approach is presented to synthesize the ionic liquid-grafted graphene oxide (GO-ImOH) for fast and efficient adsorptive removal of cationic dyes. A coupling reaction between the hydroxyl terminal of imidazolium ionic liquid and the carboxylic group of GO, yielded the GO-ImOH hybrid material. The higher surface negative charge (-32 mV) and excellent dispersibility make the GO-ImOH an efficient adsorbent for cationic dyes. The GO-ImOH showed excellent removal efficiency for methylene blue (cationic dye), whereas it could adsorb only 22% methyl orange (anionic dye). The GO-ImOH displayed significantly higher adsorptive removal capacity for cationic dye compared to that of GO adsorbent. The chemical and structural features of GO-ImOH and spectroscopic analyses (FTIR and Raman) of pristine and recovered GO-ImOH adsorbent suggested multiple adsorptive interaction pathways (electrostatic, π-cation, π-π interactions, and hydrogen linkages) between the GO-ImOH adsorbent and the dye molecules. The work paves a new direction for the development of ionic liquids-modified 2D nanomaterials for efficient and fast adsorptive removal of organic pollutants, where the adsorptive sites on the surface of 2D nanomaterials can be tuned by selecting the desired functionalities from a diversified library of cations and anions of ionic liquids.

Abstract
Rational design and highly efficient dual-functional catalyst are still difficult to develop for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction and degradation of RhB dye pollutant. Herein, we report a highly efficient "bandgap matching and interfacial coupling" strategy to synthesize nano-assembled ultrathin layered MoS2@NiFe2O4 (MS@NiFeO) bifunctional catalyst constructed by the hydrothermal route and subsequently amine-hydrolysis. The OER performance of the prepared MS@NiFeO catalyst delivers a low overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA/cm2 and Tafel slope is 69.2 mV dec-1 in an alkaline solution. In addition, the nano-assembled ultrathin layered structure of MS@NiFeO showed a highly efficient (96.37%) RhB dye degradation performance than that of MoS2 nanosheets and NiFe2O4 nanostructures. Unique nanostructure of ultrathin layered MS@NiFeO with suitable band matching, interfacial charge transfer, high surface area and more active sites favored for the enhancement of the catalytic activity. This work presents an unpretentious construction and low-cost production strategy to synthesize bifunctional hybrid catalyst for oxygen evolution reaction as well as degradation of organic pollutant with superior efficiency and longer stability.

Abstract
Water scarcity has become an increasingly complex challenge with the growth of the global population, economic expansion, and climate change, highlighting the demand for advanced water treatment technologies that can provide clean water in a scalable, reliable, affordable, and sustainable manner. Recent advancements on 2D nanomaterials (2DM) open a new pathway for addressing the grand challenge of water treatment owing to their unique structures and superior properties. Emerging 2D nanostructures such as graphene, MoS2, MXene, h-BN, g-C3N4, and black phosphorus have demonstrated an unprecedented surface-to-volume ratio, which promises ultralow material use, ultrafast processing time, and ultrahigh treatment efficiency for water cleaning/monitoring. In this review, we provide a state-of-the-art account on engineered 2D nanomaterials and their applications in emerging water technologies, involving separation, adsorption, photocatalysis, and pollutant detection. The fundamental design strategies of 2DM are discussed with emphasis on their physicochemical properties, underlying mechanism and targeted applications in different scenarios. This review concludes with a perspective on the pressing challenges and emerging opportunities in 2DM-enabled wastewater treatment and water-quality monitoring. This review can help to elaborate the structure-processing-property relationship of 2DM, and aims to guide the design of next-generation 2DM systems for the development of selective, multifunctional, programmable, and even intelligent water technologies. The global significance of clean water for future generations sheds new light and much inspiration in this rising field to enhance the efficiency and affordability of water treatment and secure a global water supply in a growing portion of the world.

One-pot synthesis of N-doped carbon intercalated molybdenum disulfide nanohybrid for enhanced adsorption of tetracycline from aqueous solutions. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 754:141925. [PMID: 32898780 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.141925] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2020] [Revised: 08/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/22/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Nitrogen-doped carbon intercalated molybdenum disulfide nanohybrid (NC-MoS2) with well-interconnected nanosheets was successfully fabricated using a one-pot hydrothermal method and applied as a novel adsorbent to remove tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. Series material characterizations indicated that the intercalation of nitrogen-doped carbon into MoS2 nanosheets could produce widened interlayer spacing, enlarge the specific surface area and create more extensive functional groups. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms investigations revealed that the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model could fit well the TC adsorption behavior of NC-MoS2. Particularly, NC-MoS2 possessed a high maximum adsorption capacity (1128.4 mg/g) that was approximately 2.8 times that of pristine MoS2 (409.84 mg/g) at 308 K and pH = 6.0 ± 0.1. Furthermore, the relevant thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption process was dependent on multiple interactions including hydrophobicity, π-π stacking interaction and hydrogen bond. These findings demonstrated that NC-MoS2 had potential applications for treating TC-containing water and broadened the application of metal sulfides in the environmental field.

Abstract
Sequestration of hazardous radioactive iodine and dye separation to reduce industrial waste through reutilization is pivotal for environmental safety. In this regard, herein, the synthesis of a new waterborne ultrasensitive supramolecular metallogel (Mg@DEOA) with a 2D sheet morphology is accomplished through direct mixing of a low molecular weight gelator diethanolamine and magnesium nitrate hexahydrate. This porous metallogel (180 m2 g-1) exhibits thixotropic properties and is injectable. The material was found to be an effective (587 mg g-1) host matrix for iodine sequestration from solution. Moreover, the Mg@DEOA xerogel was used to efficiently remove rhodamine B from a mixture of dyes with high separation factors through a xerogel packed column and as an adsorbent material for water-soluble dyes and CO. This column based application demonstrated by the metallogel could be useful for practical industrial dye-separation.

Abstract
1-aminoperylene diimide/TiO2/MoS2 composite (NH2-PDI/TiO2/MoS2) with ordered structure was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis method. The composite was characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, XPS, BET, DRS, PL, EIS, Raman, photocurrent, and Mott-Schottky plots spectroscopy. The potential positions of the conduction and valence bands, and the band gap energy of the semiconductors were estimated. The composite exhibited higher photocatalytic activity compared with the mono-component systems. The apparent rate constants (k) were determined as 0.00616, 0.00352, 0.00738, 0.00517, 0.00752, and 0.00806 min-1 for TiO2, NH2-PDI, NH2-PDI/TiO2, MoS2, MoS2/TiO2, and NH2-PDI/TiO2/MoS2, respectively. The detection of radical scavengers confirmed that superoxide radicals, photogenerated holes, and photogenerated electrons were the main active substances for MB degradation. Between type II- heterojunction mechanism and Z-scheme mechanism, the latter could explain the enhanced photocatalytic activity of the composite better. The Z-scheme mechanism accumulates more electrons at CB level of NH2-PDI and hence generates more super oxide radicals.

Abstract
Recently two-dimensional nanomaterials, such as graphene and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), have received much attention as adsorbent materials for the effective removal of organic contaminants. MoS2 is attracting attention, not only for its chemical-physical properties, but also for its wide availability in nature as a constituent of molybdenite. The aim of this investigation was to assess the effects of different MoS2 concentrations (5 × 10-1, 5 × 10-2 and 5 × 10-3 mg/ml) on the embryonated eggs of Gallus gallus domesticus, according to Beck method. We evaluated the toxic effect of the MoS2 powder purchased at Sigma-Aldrich indicated as "received" and MoS2 powder treated via mechanical milling indicated as "ball mille". Subsequently, the embryos were sacrificed at different times of embryonic development (11th, 15th and 19th day after incubation) in order to evaluate their embryotoxic and teratogenic effects. The alterations of the embryonic development were studied by morphological and immunohistochemical analysis of the tissues. The results obtained have shown the toxicity of both powders of MoS2 with a high percentage of deaths and growth delays. Moreover, the immunohistochemical analysis performed on several tissue sections showed a strong positivity to the anti-metallothionein1 antibody only for the erythrocytes.

Abstract
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were coated by polyethyleneimine (PEI), and then Fe3O4@PEI was further modified with MoS2 by the hydrothermal method to fabricate 3D flower-like structured magnetic polyethyleneimine@MoS2 (MP@MoS2) composites, and the composites were served as efficient adsorbents to capture Cr(VI) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The effects of temperature, pH, shaking time and environmental conditions on adsorption performance of MP@MoS2 towards Cr(VI) and Pb(II) have been conducted by batch adsorption experiments. The prepared MP@MoS2 exhibited high adsorption capacities (192.30 mg/g for Cr(VI) at pH 3.0 and 256.41 mg/g for Pb(II) at pH 6.0) and the adsorption equilibrium could be achieved in a short time. Moreover, MP@MoS2 composites with high saturation magnetization could be simply separated under an external magnet. Combined experiments and spectral analysis, the underlying adsorption mechanism for Cr(VI) on MP@MoS2 was mainly attributed to the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III), and the removal of Pb(II) was due to the complexation with sulfur groups and amino-groups. Consequently, the prepared 3D flower-like structured MP@MoS2 has a great potential for the practical application in removing Cr(VI) and Pb(II) from the aquatic environment.

Abstract
Two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides possess inherent structural characteristics that can be harnessed for enhancement of tribological properties by making them dispersible in lube media. Here, we present a hydrothermal approach to preparing MoS2 nanosheets comprising 4-10 molecular lamellae. A structural-defect-mediated route for grafting of octadecylamine (ODA) on MoS2 nanosheets is outlined. The unsaturated d orbitals of Mo at the sulfur vacancies on the MoS2 surface are coupled with the electron-rich nitrogen center of ODA and yield ODA-functionalized MoS2 (MoS2-ODA). The MoS2-ODA nanosheets exhibit good dispersibility in lube base oil and are used as an additive (optimized dose: 0.1 mg·mL-1) to mineral oil. It is shown that even at low concentration, MoS2-ODA nanosheets significantly reduce the friction (48%) and wear (44%). Microscopy (field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM)) and spectroscopy (Raman and elemental mapping) analyses of worn scars revealed the formation of MoS2-based protective thin films for lowering of friction and wear. This work, therefore, presents a pathway for low-friction lubricants by deploying functionalized low-dimensional material systems.

Abstract
Novel molybdenum disulfide-montmorillonite (MoS2@2DMMT) hydrogels for Cu(II) removal and inhibition on bacterial growth were successfully prepared. MoS2 was first in-situ growth onto 2DMMT platelet through hydrothermal method and then cross-linked with organic reagents to form hydrogels. The flower-like structure of synthesized MoS2 could be clearly observed in MoS2@2DMMT by SEM. The synthesized hydrogels possessed a three-dimensional macroporous structure, offering a free access for contaminants to get inside and combine with the active sites. Adsorption tests revealed that efficient Cu(II) removal (65.75 mg/g) could be achieved within a short time (30 min) at pH 5. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model and Langmuir isotherm model indicated the existence of chemisorption and monolayer absorption for Cu(II) onto MoS2@2DMMT hydrogels. Characterizations of EDS and XPS indicated that Cu(II) reacted with groups of carboxyl, hydroxyl and amidogen. Bacteriostatic tests revealed that almost a complete bacteriostatic was achieved with just small dosage (0.8 mg/mL) of MoS2@2DMMT hydrogels after the Cu(II) removal under the normal illumination. The mechanism was ascribed to the destructive effect of Cu(II) to the cytomembrane and the damage of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to the DNA. Such hydrogel not only provided insights for treating co-existing contaminates, but also guides for designing novel polymer materials from two-dimensional (2D) nano-materials.

Abstract
With the rapid worldwide industrial development, large amounts of pollutants such as heavy metals are discharged into the water sources, causing a huge threat to living beings. To mitigate this issue, there is an urgent need for new water treatment strategies. Inspired by a natural shell nacre structure and a multidimensional hybrid concept, we demonstrate multilayered inorganic-organic hybrid membranes using metallic molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) as two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide nanosheets and one-dimensional silk nanofibrils for water purification. Because of its possessing negatively charged layers and interaction sites, the hybrid film could adsorb metal ions and dyes from water. The separation performance can be tuned by changing the component ratios of these two nanomaterials. During filtration, due to the reducing effect of the MoS2 nanosheets, precious metal ions are reduced to their nanoparticle form without any further thermal or chemical treatments. In addition to the one-step removal and recovery of metal ions, the hybrid membranes exhibit excellent potential for the determination and removal of different dyes from water. The results of this research can open up an effective and green avenue for water purification and recovery of metal ions dissolved in water.

Abstract
Heteroatom doping is one of the effective ways to improve the catalytic performances of nanozymes. In the present work, the plasma-assisted controllable doping of nitrogen (N) into MoS2 nanosheets has been initially proposed, resulting in efficient nanozymes. The so-obtained nanozymes were characterized separately by TEM, XRD, XPS, and FTIR. It was discovered that the resulting N-doped MoS2 nanosheets could present dramatically enhanced peroxidase-like catalytic activities depending on the plasma treatment time. Particularly, that with the 2-min treatment could display the highest catalytic activity, which is over 3-fold higher than that of pristine MoS2, that was also demonstrated by the kinetics studies. Herein, the N2 plasma treatment could facilitate the N elements to be doped covalently into MoS2 nanosheets to achieve the increased surface wettability and affinity of nanozymes for the improved access of the electrons and substrates of catalytic reactions. More importantly, the covalent doping of N elements into MoS2 nanosheets with a lower Fermi level, as evidenced by the DFT analysis, could facilitate the promoted electron transferring, resulting in the enhanced catalysis of N-doped MoS2 nanozymes, in addition to the high catalytic stability in water. Such a controllable plasma treatment strategy may open a new door toward the large-scale applications for doping heteroatoms into various nanozymes with improved catalysis performances.

Abstract
A novel MoS2-DOPO hybrid has been successfully synthesized through the grafting of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO) on the surface of MoS2 nanosheets using allyl mercaptan as an intermediate. MoS2-DOPO was used as a flame retardant additive to prepare flame-retardant flexible polyurethane foam (FPUF). The influence of MoS2-DOPO on the mechanical, thermal stability, and flame retardancy properties of FPUF composites were systematically investigated. The incorporation of MoS2-DOPO could not deteriorate greatly the tensile strength and 50% compression set of FPUF composites, but effectively improves the char residue. The cone calorimeter and smoke density tests results revealed that the peak heat release rate, total heat release, and the maximum smoke density of the MoS2-DOPO/FPUF composite were reduced by 41.3, 27.7, and 40.5%, respectively, compared with those of pure FPUF. Furthermore, the char residue after cone calorimeter tests and pyrolysis gaseous products of the MoS2-DOPO/FPUF composite were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis/infrared spectrometry. The results suggested that the MoS2-DOPO hybrid played a synergistic flame retardant effect of gas and condensed bi-phase action. In addition, a possible flame retardancy and smoke suppression mechanism of the MoS2-DOPO/FPUF composite were proposed. This study provides a facile and promising strategy for the fabrication of polymer materials with excellent flame retardancy and smoke suppression properties.

Abstract
Clean water is a vital element for survival of any living creature and, thus, crucially important to achieve largely and economically for any nation worldwide. However, the astonishingly fast trend of industrialization and population growth and the arisen extensive water pollutions have challenged access to clean water across the world. In this regard, 1.6 million tons of dyes are annually consumed. Thereof, 10%–15% are wasted during use. To decolorize water streams, there is an urgent need for the advanced remediation approaches involving utilization of novel materials and technologies, which are cost and energy efficient. Nanomaterials, with their outstanding physicochemical properties, can potentially resolve the challenge of need to water treatment in a less energy demanding manner. In this review, a variety of the most recent (from 2015 onwards) opportunities arisen from nanomaterials in different dimensionalities, performances, and compositions for water decolorization is introduced and discussed. The state-of-the-art research studies are presented in a classified manner, particularly based on structural dimensionality, to better illustrate the current status of adsorption-based water decolorization using nanomaterials. Considering the introduction of many newly developed nano-adsorbents and their classification based on the dimensionality factor, which has never been employed for this sake in the related literature, a comprehensive review will be presented.

Abstract
Simultaneous removal of coexisting metals and dyes from industrial wastewaters is challenging, and the mutual effects behind the co-adsorption of these pollutants remain unclear. Herein, interlayer-expanded MoS2 (IE-MoS2) nanosheets prepared by a one-pot simple and scalable method were tested to simultaneously remove toxic metals and cationic dyes. The adsorption capacities of IE-MoS2 nanosheets were 499, 423, 500, 355, and 276 mg/g for Pb(II), Cu(II), methylene blue, malachite green, and rhodamine B, respectively, in a mono-contaminant system. Interestingly, the sequestration amount of Pb(II) was dependent on the concentrations of dyes in the binary Pb(II)-dye systems, while uptake of cationic dyes was almost not influenced by coexisting Pb(II). The simultaneous adsorption mechanism was further confirmed by spectroscopic methods. The IE-MoS2 nanosheets were easily regenerated and reused for six adsorption-desorption cycles without structure destruction, thus avoiding the potential hazards of nanomaterial to the ecosphere. More interestingly, high-efficiency uptake of Pb(II) from intentionally contaminated natural water and model textile effluent was obtained by using a column filled with IE-MoS2 nanosheets. In summary, IE-MoS2 nanosheets with facile and scalable synthesis method, efficient adsorption performance, and excellent reusability showed potential promise for the integrative treatment of complex wastewater bearing both metals and organic pollutants.

Abstract
Metal oxide nanomaterials and their composites are comprehensively reviewed for water remediation. The controlled morphological and textural features, variable surface chemistry, high surface area, specific crystalline nature, and abundant availability make the nanostructured metal oxides and their composites highly selective materials for efficient removal of organic pollutants based on adsorption and photocatalytic degradation. A wide range of metal oxides like iron oxides, magnesium oxide, titanium oxides, zinc oxides, tungsten oxides, copper oxides, metal oxides composites, and graphene-metal oxides composites having variable structural, crystalline and morphological features are reviewed emphasizing the recent development, challenges, and opportunities for adsorptive removal and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants viz. dyes, pesticides, phenolic compounds, and so on. It also covers the deep discussion on the photocatalytic mechanism of metal oxides and their composites along with the properties relevant to photocatalysis. High photodegradation efficiency, economically-viable approaches for the preparation of photocatalytic materials, and controlled band-gap engineering make metal oxides highly efficient photocatalysts for degradation of organic pollutants. The review would be an excellent resource for researchers who are currently focusing on metal oxides-based materials for water remediation as well as for those who are interested in adsorptive and photocatalytic applications of metal oxides and their composites.
