Abstract
Two new types of solid adsorption material (macroporous cation exchange resin (MCER) and macroporous ion-exchange resin organic amine composite material (MCER-DEA)) were prepared from waste television plastics outer shell (WTPS) and used to capture CO2 in flue gas from coal-fired power plants. The results showed that the CO2 adsorption capacity of MCER-DEA was 2.87 mmol/g, while MCER was 1.87 mmol/g. The preparation mechanism and action mechanism of MCER and MCER-DEA was studied by Fourier transform infrared and quantum chemical calculations. The results showed that the electrophilic substitution occurs in between an H atom of meta position on the benzene ring and H2SO4. The electron energy of MCER-DEA was calculated to be 1.14 ev, indicating these MCERs formed acid-base coordination with diethanolamine (DEA). Besides, the electron energy of between MCER and CO2 was 0.27 ev, and the interaction force was dominated by hydrogen bonds. The electron energy of the MCER-DEA and CO2 was 3.02 ev, and the interaction force was mainly controlled by coordination bonds. It indicated that MCER and CO2 were primarily based on physical adsorption, while MCER-DEA and CO2 were mainly based on chemisorption adsorption. Adsorption kinetics studies showed that internal diffusion was a rate-controlling step.

Chem Sci 2022; 13:9035-9046. [PMID: 36091218 PMCID: PMC9365087 DOI: 10.1039/d2sc01354a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Adsorptive separation is a promising lower-energy alternative for traditional industrial separation processes. While carbon-based materials have a long history in adsorptive removal of organic contaminants from solution or gas mixtures, separation using an adsorption/desorption protocol is rarely considered. The main drawbacks are the limited control in bulk adsorption experiments, as often all organic molecules are adsorbed, and lack of desorption methods to retrieve the adsorbed molecules. Using high-resolution on-surface characterization with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), an increased understanding of the on-surface adsorption behavior under different conditions was obtained. The insight obtained from the nanoscale experiments was used to develop a highly selective separation method using adsorption and desorption on graphite, which was tested for the separation of quinonoid zwitterions. These experiments on adsorptive separation using self-assembly on graphite show its potential and demonstrate the advantage of combining surface characterization techniques with bulk experiments to exploit different possible applications of carbon-based materials.

Abstract
An aromatic heterocyclic compound, 2-aminobenzothiazole (ABT), was used to decorate graphene oxide (GO) by a facile hydrothermal self-assembly procedure. The developed three-dimensional (3D) GO-ABT composite aerogels could be utilized as high-powered and sustainable adsorbents for the enrichment and recovery of low concentration rare earth elements (REEs) from aqueous solutions. The composition and microstructure of GO-ABT composites were explored various characterization methods. The enrichment properties of GO-ABT composites for REEs were investigated in detail, revealing the existence of S-, N- and -NH2 in ABT, as well as the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups of GO which might act as the major REE binding sites. The adsorption of GO-ABT composites for low concentration REEs could reach equilibrium in 30 min. Our investigations confirmed that the optimal pH value of GO-ABT composites for REEs was pH 4.0-5.0. For the adsorbent regeneration study, 50.0 mg of GO-ABT15:1/120 °C/6 h composite was used toward 20.0 mL of Er3+ solutions. After ten regeneration cycles, the adsorption rates of GO-ABT composites for Er3+ remained around 100%, and the desorption rates maintained over 90%. The long-term storage of the adsorbent did not affect its adsorption ability, while desorption rates increased, indicating it possessed relatively higher stability.

Abstract
By utilizing scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), the self-assembled nanostructures of three characteristic aldehydes have been examined at the solution-solid interface. By introducing the active reactant 5-aminoisophthalic acid (5-AIPA), we succeeded in changing the self-assembled molecular structures through the condensation reaction and obtained the information on structural transformation in real time. The corresponding carboxyl conjugated derivatives were formed in situ and developed into the closely packed and ordered molecular architectures via hydrogen bonds at the solution-solid surface. The relevant simulations have been utilized to interpret the mechanisms of forming the nanostructures. The corresponding theoretical calculation is used to explain the reaction mechanism. Compared with the traditional ways, the on-surface condensation reaction in situ could not only provide a more convenient method for regulating the self-assembled architectures but also offer a promising strategy for building functional nanostructures and devices.

Abstract
Carbocatalysis holds a privileged position as a sustainable alternative to metal-based catalysis. While the focus in solution-based catalytic processes generally lies on how the heterogeneous catalyst affects the solution composition, more attention has recently been given to the analysis of the carbon material itself. Various outstanding surface characterisation techniques, efficient in assessing the catalyst on-surface composition, are now available. These include high-resolution imaging tools such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), capable of bringing new insights into the processes determining rate and selectivity effects induced by carbocatalysts. In this regard, the use of self-assembly on graphite as a strategy to direct the outcome of chemical reactions has already shown great potential. This promising approach gives the scientific community the exciting prospect of rationalising selectivity in carbocatalysis with pristine graphite by linking in-solution and on-surface composition.

Abstract
Supramolecular self-assembly behaviors on solid substrates have been widely investigated in the last few decades. Owing to the complexity of interfacial assembly systems, the precise regulation of supramolecular nanostructures is still challenging and waits to be solved. The supramolecular nanostructures are governed by non-covalent bonds, so they can be disrupted and influenced by an external environment. In this review, the dynamic supramolecular nanostructures that are mediated by external stimuli containing guest species, light irradiation, temperature and electric field are discussed in detail. The research studies mentioned in this article are all accomplished by STM, and the effects of these external stimuli on the assembled nanostructures have been elucidated exhaustively here.

Abstract
The self-assembly of functional molecules into uniform nanostructures with innovational properties has attracted extensive research interest. In the present work, the assembly structures and electronic properties of a novel type of truxene derivative, e.g. truxene-porphyrin derivatives, were studied, for the first time, on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images revealed that the truxene-porphyrin compounds could be parallelly arranged into long-ranged lamellar patterns. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations helped explain the assembly mechanisms further. Besides, order distribution of the smaller compound 1T1P in the 1,3,5-tris(10-carboxydecyloxy)-benzene (TCDB) host network was achieved, which is a reflection of the dimensional effect in the host-guest assembly. Furthermore, together with theoretical analyses, scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) measurements were conducted to investigate the electronic properties of truxene-porphyrin compounds. Results showed that the metalation of the porphyrin units could have a significant effect on the band gap and the position of the gap center. The study enhances our understanding of the assembly mechanism of truxene derivatives at the molecular level and paves the way towards fabricating truxene-based functional nanodevices.

Abstract
Nanotribology has been given increasing attention by researchers in pursuing the nature of friction. In the present work, an approach that combines the supramolecular assembly and nanotribology is introduced. Herein, the nanotribological study was carried out on seven supramolecular template networks [namely, hydrogen bond induced tricarboxylic acids and van der Waals force induced hexaphenylbenzene (HPB) derivatives]. The template networks, as well as the host-guest assemblies of template molecules induced by different forces, were constructed on the highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface and explicitly characterized using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Meanwhile, the nanotribological properties of the template networks were measured using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Together with the theoretical calculation using the density functional theory (DFT) method, it was revealed that the friction coefficients were positively correlated with the interaction strength. The frictional energy dissipation mainly derives from both the intermolecular interaction energy and the interaction energy between molecules and the substrate. The efforts not only help us gain insight into the competitive mechanisms of hydrogen bond and van der Waals force in supramolecular assembly but also shed light on the origin of friction and the relationship between the assembly structures and the nanotribological properties at the molecular level.
