Abstract
Steel slag, abundantly available at a low cost and containing over 30 wt% silica, is an attractive precursor for producing high-surface-area mesoporous silica. By employing a two-stage dissolution-precipitation method using 1 M HCl and 1 M NaOH, we extracted pure SiO2, CaO, MgO, etc. from blast furnace slag (BFS). The water-soluble sodium silicate obtained was then used to synthesize mesoporous silica. The resulting silica had an average surface area of 100 m2 g-1 and a pore size distribution ranging from 4 to 20 nm. The mesoporous silica powder was further formed into beads and post-functionalized with polyethyleneimine (PEI) for cyclic CO2 capture from a mixture containing 15% CO2 in N2 at 75 °C. The silica-PEI bead was tested over 105 adsorption-desorption cycles, demonstrating an average CO2 capture capacity of 1 mmol g-1. This work presents a sustainable approach from steel slag to cost-effective mesoporous silica materials and making CO2 capture more feasible.

Collaborative adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of high concentration pharmaceutical pollutants in water using a novel dendritic fibrous nano-silica modified with chitosan and UiO-66. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133534. [PMID: 38950805 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133534] [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: 02/09/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
This study presents a novel hybrid mesoporous material for degrading drug pollutants in water. The hybrid materials, derived from UiO-66 metal-organic framework and chitosan, coated on nano-silica, showed excellent drug adsorption through hydrogen-bonding interactions and efficient photodegradation of antibiotics. The hybrid material's enhanced conductivity and reduced band gap significantly improved pollution reduction by minimising electron-hole recombination. This allows for more efficient charge transport and better light absorption, boosting the material's ability to break down pollutants. Structural and morphological analyses were conducted using various techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Optimising the adsorption-photodegradation process involved investigating pH, catalyst dose, and radiation time. Non-linear optimisation revealed an efficiency exceeding 85 % for 400 mg/L tetracycline and doxycycline, the model antibiotics. The optimal parameters for maximal elimination were determined as pH = 4.3, hybrid mesosphere dose = 4.0 mg/mL, and radiation time = 10 min. Kinetic studies favored pseudo-second-order diffusion models over pseudo-first-order models. The hybrid mesosphere showed sustained efficiency after three cycles and performed well in real aqueous samples, removing over 80 % of each antibiotic. This study demonstrates the potential of the hybrid mesoporous material for removing pharmaceutical pollutants in water systems.

Abstract
The formation of a protein corona, where proteins spontaneously adhere to the surface of nanomaterials in biological environments, leads to changes in their physicochemical properties and subsequently affects their intended biomedical functionalities. Most current methods to study protein corona formation are ensemble-averaging and either require fluorescent labeling, washing steps, or are only applicable to specific types of particles. Here we introduce real-time all-optical nanoparticle analysis by scattering microscopy (RONAS) to track the formation of protein corona in full serum, at the single-particle level, without any labeling. RONAS uses optical scattering microscopy and enables real-time and in situ tracking of protein adsorption on metallic and dielectric nanoparticles with different geometries directly in blood serum. We analyzed the adsorbed protein mass, the affinity, and the kinetics of the protein adsorption at the single particle level. While there is a high degree of heterogeneity from particle to particle, the predominant factor in protein adsorption is surface chemistry rather than the underlying nanoparticle material or size. RONAS offers an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms related to protein coronas and, thus, enables the development of strategies to engineer efficient bionanomaterials.

Abstract
The synthesis of heterogeneous Ti(IV)-based catalysts for ethylene polymerization following surface organometallic chemistry concepts is described. The unique feature of this catalyst arises from the silica support, KCC-1700. It has (i) a 3D fibrous morphology that is essential to improve the diffusion of the reactants, and (ii) an aluminum-bound hydroxyl group, [(Si-O-Si)(Si-O-)2Al-OH] 2, used as an anchoring site. The [(Si-O-Si)(Si-O-)(Al-O-)TiNp3] 3 catalyst was obtained by reacting 2 with a tetrakis-(neopentyl) titanium TiNp4. The structure of 3 was fully characterized by FT-IR, advanced solid-state NMR spectroscopy [1H, 13C], elemental and gas-phase analysis (ICP-OES and CHNS analysis), and XPS. The benefits of combining these morphological (3D structure) and electronic properties of the support (aluminum plus titanium) were evidenced in ethylene polymerization. The results show a remarkable enhancement in the catalytic performance with the formation of HDPE. Notably, the resulting HDPE displays a molecular weight of 3 200 000 g mol-1 associated with a polydispersity index (PD) of 2.3. Moreover, the effect of the mesostructure (2D vs. 3D) was demonstrated in the catalytic activity for ethylene polymerization.

Abstract
KCC-1, a nanostructured silica material with a bicontinuous concentric lamellar (bcl) morphology, provides plenty of functional characteristics, such as an open channel structure, excellent accessibility, and a large surface area. Although bcl silica exhibits various superior properties, studies on its morphology and its application in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are still limited. Therefore, this work aims to study the influence of the synthesis time on the morphology of bcl silica. Moreover, we used the synthesized bcl silica as internal micro-reflectors in DSSCs. The bcl silica was synthesized using the reflux method by varying synthesis times. The morphology of bcl silica was observed using FESEM and HRTEM. FESEM images show that bcl silica has bicontinuous lamellar walls arranged concentrically to form spherical particles. As the synthesis time increases, the average particle size of bcl silica increases. The quantization of bcl silica binary images shows that the average lamellar cross-sectional area ratio decreases with increasing synthesis time. The simulation of the Cahn-Hilliard's spinodal decomposition model using MATLAB also describes the lamellar cross-sectional area ratio of bcl silica. In addition, to characterize the FESEM image's texture, a Shannon entropy calculation was performed. The line and circular gray value intensity profiles of the HRTEM image show that bcl silica has a denser core than the outer part. The denser core proves that the lamellae in bcl silica are concentrically arranged towards the particle core. Furthermore, we added bcl silica to a photoanode to see the effect of bcl characteristics on the DSSC performance. The results show that the bcl silica significantly improves the light-harvesting efficiency in DSSCs due to its low refractive index and open channel structure.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) are currently used in different fields like catalysis, nanomedicine, and conservation science, taking advantage of their high surface area. Here, we synthesized and functionalized mesoporous dendritic fibrous nanoparticles to realize a smart delivery system of protective agents for metals. Different MSNPs were obtained via the microemulsion method followed by a hydrothermal or refluxing treatment at different w/o ratios, times, and temperatures. Dendritic spherical silica nanoparticles with specific features such as an appropriate size (450 nm), a very large surface area (600 m2 g-1), and a high yield synthesis (86%) were selected for surface modification. The fiber surface of the selected MSNPs was functionalized with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (3-APTES). 3-APTES works as a pH-driven "nanogate", suppressing the immediate leakage of the total guest molecule load and modulating the release as a function of pH conditions. Surface-modified MSNPs were tested as a reservoir of the most diffused corrosion inhibitors: Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) and 1H-Benzotriazole (BTA); their release properties were studied in solutions with pH = 4 and 7. Functionalized and non-functionalized MSNPs showed a good loading efficiency of guest molecules (34-64%) and a pH-dependent release of the corrosion inhibitors on a timescale of several hours.

Abstract
The engineering of a new monodisperse colloid with a sea urchin-like structure with a large complex internal structure is reported, in which silica surfaces are bridged by an aromatic organic cross-linker to serve as a nanocarrier host for drugs such as doxorubicin (DOX) against breast cancer cells. While dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS) was employed and we do not observe a dendritic structure, these particles are referred to as sea urchin-like nanostructured silica (SNS). Since the structure of SNS consists of many silica fibrils protruding from the core, similar to the hairs of a sea urchin. For the aromatic structured cross-linker, bis(propyliminomethyl)benzene (b(PIM)B-S or silanated terephtaldehyde) were employed, which are prepared with terephtaldehyde and 3-aminopropyltriethoxy-silane (APTES) through a simple Schiff base reaction. b(PIM)B-S bridges were introduced into SNS under open vessel reflux conditions. SPS refers to the product obtained by incorporating the cross-linker b(PIM)B-S in ultra-small colloidal SNS particles. In-situ incorporation of DOX molecules resulted in SPS-DOX. The pH-responsive SPS nanocomposites were tested as biocompatible nanocarriers for controllable doxorubicin (DOX) delivery. We conclude that SPS is a unique colloid which has promising potential for technological applications such as advanced drug delivery systems, wastewater remediation and as a catalyst for green organic reactions in water.

Abstract
We present a simple and eco-friendly method for controlled drug release using a surfactant-assisted method. Oxyresveratrol (ORES) was co-loaded with a non-ionic surfactant onto KCC-1, a dendritic fibrous silica, using an ethanol evaporation technique. The carriers were characterized using FE-SEM, TEM, XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopy, and the loading and encapsulation efficiencies were assessed using TGA and DSC techniques. Contact angle and zeta potential were used to determine the surfactant arrangement and the particle charges. To investigate the effects of different surfactants (Tween 20, Tween 40, Tween 80, Tween 85, and Span 80) on ORES release, we conducted experiments under different pH and temperature conditions. Results showed that the types of surfactants, drug loading content, pH, and temperature significantly affected the drug release profile. The percentage of drug loading efficiency of the carriers was in the range of 80 %-100 %, and the release of ORES was in the order of M/KCC-1 > M/K/S80 > M/K/T40 > M/K/T20 > MK/T80 > M/K/T85 at 24 h. Furthermore, the carriers provided excellent protection for ORES against UVA and maintained its antioxidant activity. KCC-1 and Span 80 enhanced the cytotoxicity to HaCaT cells, while Tween 80 suppressed the cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Abstract
Textural properties of the solid sorbents are critical to tuning their CO2 capture performance. In this work, we studied the effect of fiber density (in turn, pore size, distribution, and accessibility) on CO2 capture capacity and kinetics. CO2 solid sorbents were prepared by physisorption of tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) molecules on dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS) with varying fiber density. Among the various DFNS, the DFNS with moderate fiber density [DFNS-3] showed the best CO2 capture capacity under the flue gas condition. The maximum CO2 capture capacity achieved was 24.3 wt % (5.53 mmol/g) at 75 °C for DFNS-3 under humid gas conditions. Fiber density also played a role in the kinetics of CO2 capture. DFNS-1 with dense fiber density needed ∼10.4 min to reach 90 % capture capacity, while DFNS-3 (moderate fiber density) needed only 6.4 min, which further decreased to 5.9 min for DFNS-5 with lightly dense fibers. The DFNS-impregnated TEPA also showed good recyclability during 21 adsorption and desorption cycles under humid and dry conditions. The total CO2 capture capacity of DFNS-3 (14.7) in 21 cycles was 108.9 and 105.0 mmol/g under humid and dry conditions, respectively. Adsorption lifetime calculation and recyclability confirmed the fiber density-dependent CO2 capture performance.

Abstract
Early-stage detection is a vital factor in the later treatment and prognosis of cancer. Enhancing the sensitivity and specificity of the cancer detection pathological and experimental approaches can affect the morbidity and mortality of this disease. A folic acid (FA)-functionalized silica quantum dots (SiQDs)/KCC-NH2@SiO2 nanomaterials were synthesized and characterized as a bioimaging agent of the MCF 7 cancer cells. These nanoparticles showed biocompatible nature with specificity towards folate receptor (FR)-overexpressed MCF 7 cancer cells. Viability findings suggested that the SiQDs/KCC-NH2@SiO2/FA nanomaterials have nontoxic nature towards the cells in the concentration of 200 μg/mL. Fluorescence microscopy images were utilized to estimate the cell internalization of the nanoparticles and further verified by the flow cytometry technique. The differentiation ability of the nanoparticles was also approved by incubation with FR-negative HEK 293 normal cells. The SiQDs/KCC-NH2@SiO2/FA nanoparticle exhibited high stability, bright and high quantum yield fluorescence emission, proposing as a high-quality material for in vivo bioimaging of FR-overexpressed circulating tumoral cancer cells (CTCs).

Abstract
Following the discovery of Stöber silica, the realm of morphology-controlled mesoporous silica nanomaterials like MCM-41, SBA-15, and KCC-1 has been expanded. Due to their high BET surface area, tunable pores, easiness of functionalization, and excellent thermal and chemical stability, these materials take part a vital role in the advancement of techniques and technologies for tackling the world's largest challenges in the area of water and the environment, energy storage, and biotechnology. Synthesizing these materials with excellent physicochemical properties from cost-efficient biomass wastes is a foremost model of sustainability. Particularly, SiO2 with a purity >98% can be obtained from rice husk (RH), one of the most abundant biomass wastes, and can be template engineered into various forms of mesoporous silica materials in an economic and eco-friendly way. Hence, this review initially gives insight into why to valorize RH into value-added silica materials. Then the thermal, chemical, hydrothermal, and biological methods of high-quality silica extraction from RH and the principles of synthesis of mesoporous and fibrous mesoporous silica materials like SBA-15, MCM-41, MSNs, and KCC-1 are comprehensively discussed. The potential applications of rice husk-derived mesoporous silica materials in catalysis, drug delivery, energy, adsorption, and environmental remediation are explored. Finally, the conclusion and the future outlook are briefly highlighted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are known as promising theranostic nano-drug carriers with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) properties. Applying the herbaceous components with cytotoxic effects as cargos can suggest a new approach in the field of cancer-therapy. In this study mesoporous silica coated SPIONs (mSiO2@SPIONs) containing curcumin (CUR) and silymarin (SIL) were prepared and evaluated on breast cancer cell line, MCF-7. METHODS Nanoparticles (NPs) were formulated by reverse microemulsion method and characterized by DLS, SEM and VSM. The in vitro drug release, cellular cytotoxicity, and MRI properties of NPs were determined as well. The cellular uptake of NPs by MCF-7 cells was investigated through LysoTracker Red staining using confocal microscopy. RESULTS The MTT results showed that the IC50 of CUR + SIL loaded mSiO2@SPIONs was reduced about 50% in comparison with that of the free drug mixture. The NPs indicated proper MRI features and cellular uptake through endocytosis. CONCLUSION In conclusion the prepared formulation may offer a novel theranostic system for breast cancer researches.

Abstract
Nanoparticles represent a promising class of material for nanomedicine and molecular biosensing. The formation of a protein corona due to nonspecific particle-protein interactions is a determining factor for the biological fate of nanoparticles in vivo and strongly impacts the performance of nanoparticles when used as biosensors. Nonspecific interactions are usually highly heterogeneous, yet little is known about the heterogeneity of the protein corona that may lead to inter- and intraparticle differences in composition and protein distribution. Here, we present a super-resolution microscopic approach to study the protein corona on single silica nanoparticles and subsequent cellular interactions using multicolor stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy. We demonstrate that STED resolves structural features of protein corona on single particles including the distribution on the particle surface and the degree of protein internalization in porous particles. Using multicolor measurements of multiple labeled protein species, we determine the composition of the protein corona at the single-particle level. We quantify particle-to-particle differences in the composition and find that the composition is considerably influenced by the particle geometry. In a subsequent cellular uptake measurement, we demonstrate multicolor STED of protein corona on single particles internalized by cells. Our study shows that STED microscopy opens the window toward mechanistic understanding of protein coronas and aids in the rational design of nanoparticles as nanomedicines and biosensors.

Abstract
Dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS) is a suitable nano-carrier for loading pesticides with radially oriented pores and a large surface area. The microemulsion method is standard method to prepare DFNS, and 1-pentanol is taken to replace cyclohexane as an oil solvent due to its high stability and nontoxic property. The results showed that the volume ratio of 1-pentanol (oil) to water (O/W) and the molar ratio of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) had effected on morphology and adsorption properties of DFNS in the water-CTAB-1-pentanol-ethanol-trimethylbenzene (TMB) microemulsion system. DFNS with bicontinuous concentric lamellar morphologies can be synthesized in this microemulsion at the meager O/W volume ratio (0.025-0.045). It features a tight mesoporous structure with a thin dendritic fibrous in 0.03 to 0.04 O/W volume ratio. The particle sizes, surface areas, and porosity of DFNS were positively correlated with the addition of the silica precursor TEOS. The size of DFNS increased from 123 to about 220 nm with the CTAB/TEOS molar ratio decreasing from 0.119 to 0.050. When the molar ratio of CTAB to TEOS = 0.119, DFNS has a smaller particle size (123 nm) with a larger surface area and abundant honeycomb mesopores; the low O/W volume ratio strategy provides theoretical support for the industrialization development of DFNS and nano-pesticides, which plays a profound role in promoting the sustainable development of pesticide reduction, efficiency and green agriculture.

Abstract
ConspectusSilica-based mesoporous nanomaterials have been widely used for a range of applications. Although mesopore materials (such as MCM-41 and SBA-15) possess high surface area, due to their tubular pore structures, pore accessibility is restricted, which causes limitations in mass transport. A new nanosilica was needed to overcome these challenges, including better accessibility, controllable particle size, and good stability. In 2010, my group invented dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS), which has now become a family of novel nanosilicas. DFNS has several unique properties: (i) Tunable particle sizes (50 to 1200 nm), (ii) high surface area (500 to 1200 m2/g), (iii) tunable pore volume (0.32 to 2.18 cm3/g), (iv) wide pore size distribution (3.7 to 25 nm) characterized by radially oriented pores, (v) controllable fiber density (number of fibers per sphere), (vi) variable pore size and pore volume, (vi) high thermal (∼800 °C) and hydrothermal stability, and (vii) mechanical stability (∼130 MPa). DFNS possesses unique dendritic fibrous morphology, and hence can be reached from all sides and easily accessible. DFNS can now be synthesized using a open refluxing protocol, which allowed the scale-up of the process with a sustainable E-factor. In the last 12 years, the DFNS family of materials has been extensively studied for their formation mechanism and range of applications such as catalysis, solar energy harvesting, CO2 capture, CO2 conversion, sensing, biomedicine, energy storage and many more.This Account discusses the invention of DFNS, its synthesis with tunable particle size, textural properties (surface area, pore volume, and pore size), and fiber density. In addition, the DFNS formation mechanism via the complex interplay of self-assembly, the dynamics, and coalescence of bicontinuous microemulsion droplets (BMDs) is discussed. Finally, applications of DFNS in a range of fields, that include catalysis, photocatalysis, synthesis of plasmonic black gold, nanosponges of aluminosilicates, CO2 capture, and CO2 conversion to fuel, are presented.

Abstract
Fibrous nano-silica sphere (KCC-1) has appeared as a good and efficient catalyst for ultrasonic irradiation conditions in chemical reactions. This catalyst has the unique properties such as a fibrous surface morphology, high surface area and high mechanical stability. The results indicated that the KCC-1 nanocatalyst could be used as high-performance catalysts under high temperature and pressure condition in organic reaction under ultrasonic irradiation. Morphology, structure, and composition of the fibrous nano-silica sphere were described by N2 adsorption–desorption analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In this work, we used KCC-1@NH2 nanosilica as a basic catalyst for the preparation of chromenes under ultrasonic irradiation conditions for the first time. The recyclability, nontoxicity and high stability of the catalyst, combined with low reaction times and excellent yields, make the present protocol very useful for the synthesis of the title products under ultrasonic conditions. The produced products were confirmed via 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR analysis.

Abstract
The thermodynamic picture describing the formation mechanism of bicontinuous concentric lamellar (bcl) nanostructured silica particles, bcl silica, was investigated thoroughly. A series of classical kinetics of bcl silica by varying the synthesis time were employed to observe the morphological evolution of bcl silica. The formation mechanism of bcl silica is proposed as the hydrolysis and condensation reactions in the reverse micelle, followed by the phase segregation process. The images of the whole part and the cross-section of bcl silica reveal that bcl silica can be obtained just 30 min after the synthesis starts. The particle morphology evolves from bicontinuous lamellar (bl) morphology, with the absence of the dense part in the center of the particle, to bicontinuous concentric lamellar (bcl) morphology. The theoretical part of this study is focused on the phase segregation process of the mixture. This process is divided thermodynamically into several reversible processes based on the reduced Helmholtz free energy state function. The type of the lamellar orientation (i.e., parallel or perpendicular orientation) changed as the stacked lamellae changed in thickness and was followed by the decrease in the free energy. It was merely shown that the segregation of the thin slab of the lamellar polysiloxane stack favors the perpendicular orientation. In contrast, the thick slab of the lamellar polysiloxane stack yields a complex lamellar structure consisting of perpendicular and parallel orientations. A lamellar polymer confined between two planar substrates can experience a topological transformation into a sphere due to an unfavorable environment, i.e., high surface tension. After the topological transformation, lamellae with a perpendicular orientation form bicontinuous lamellae, whereas the complex lamellar structure transforms into a bicontinuous concentric lamellar morphology.

Abstract
Supported single-metal atom catalysts (SACs) are constituted of isolated active metal centers, which are heterogenized on inert supports such as graphene, porous carbon, and metal oxides. Their thermal stability, electronic properties, and catalytic activities can be controlled via interactions between the single-metal atom center and neighboring heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. Due to the atomic dispersion of the active catalytic centers, the amount of metal required for catalysis can be decreased, thus offering new possibilities to control the selectivity of a given transformation as well as to improve catalyst turnover frequencies and turnover numbers. This review aims to comprehensively summarize the synthesis of Fe-SACs with a focus on anchoring single atoms (SA) on carbon/graphene supports. The characterization of these advanced materials using various spectroscopic techniques and their applications in diverse research areas are described. When applicable, mechanistic investigations conducted to understand the specific behavior of Fe-SACs-based catalysts are highlighted, including the use of theoretical models.

Rad SA, Shadjou N. Metformin functionalized dendritic fibrous nanosilica (KCC-1-nPr-Met) as an innovative and green nanocatalyst for the efficient synthesis of tetrahydro-4H-chromene derivatives. J Mol Recognit 2021; 35:e2943. [PMID: 34713937 DOI: 10.1002/jmr.2943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 10/08/2021] [Accepted: 10/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
An innovative nanocatalyst (KCC-1-nPr-Met) has been prepared from the covalent attachment of metformin on the channels and the pores of n-propyl amine functionalized dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS) and used towards efficient, green, and high yield synthesis of tetrahydro-4H-chromenes derivatives by one-pot three-component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and dimedone in H2 O-EtOH at room temperature. The designed nanocatalyst has been characterized by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and adsorption/desorption analysis (BET) techniques. Also, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used to study the morphology of prepared nanocatalyst. The engineered nanocatalyst with uniform fibrous spheres has dendritic structure, high pore volume (0.35 cm3 /g), and great surface area (178 m2 /g). Hence, the specific dendritic structure of the prepared nanocatalyst not only improve the diffusion ability of the reactants and products, but also, increase the availability of dynamic sites in the pores and channels of the catalyst. According to the obtained results, a unique strategy was proposed towards the synthesis of important biologically active scaffolds in the presence of nontoxic and environmental friendly nanocatalyst and media. Milder reaction conditions (room temperature), shorter reaction times (5-30 minutes), excellent yields (92%-98%) of the products with higher purity, very simple workup procedure, and using of EtOH: H2 O as a green solvent are the advantages of the presented work.

Abstract
Superionic phases of bulk anhydrous salts based on large cluster-like polyhedral (carba)borate anions are generally stable only well above room temperature, rendering them unsuitable as solid-state electrolytes in energy-storage devices that typically operate at close to room temperature. To unlock their technological potential, strategies are needed to stabilize these superionic properties down to subambient temperatures. One such strategy involves altering the bulk properties by confinement within nanoporous insulators. In the current study, the unique structural and ion dynamical properties of an exemplary salt, NaCB11H12, nanodispersed within porous, high-surface-area silica via salt-solution infiltration were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray powder diffraction, neutron vibrational spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, quasielastic neutron scattering, and impedance spectroscopy. Combined results hint at the formation of a nanoconfined phase that is reminiscent of the high-temperature superionic phase of bulk NaCB11H12, with dynamically disordered CB11H12 - anions exhibiting liquid-like reorientational mobilities. However, in contrast to this high-temperature bulk phase, the nanoconfined NaCB11H12 phase with rotationally fluid anions persists down to cryogenic temperatures. Moreover, the high anion mobilities promoted fast-cation diffusion, yielding Na+ superionic conductivities of ∼0.3 mS/cm at room temperature, with higher values likely attainable via future optimization. It is expected that this successful strategy for conductivity enhancement could be applied as well to other related polyhedral (carba)borate-based salts. Thus, these results present a new route to effectively utilize these types of superionic salts as solid-state electrolytes in future battery applications.

Abstract
It is pretty necessary to detect effectively polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs, including naphthalene, acenaphthylene, acenaphthene, fluorene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, and pyrene) in foods due to their widespread distribution, trace concentration, and harmful risk to humans beings. Herein, dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres@porous carbon was developed for solid-phase microextraction of PAHs. Firstly, three-dimensional dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (DMSNs) with high surface area and large pore volume were synthesized via an oil-water biphase stratification approach, then porous carbon was further prepared by utilizing DMSNs and asphalt as the template and carbon source, respectively. A core-shell DMSNs@porous carbon material was successfully developed and characterized by Raman spectroscopy, elemental analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller test, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. DMSNs@porous carbon was proved to be a potential extraction material based on large surface area (442 m2 g-1), suitable pore sizes (about 45 nm), and high carbon content (17.36%). Subsequently, it was developed as an extraction coating and applied to online in-tube solid-phase microextraction of PAHs from tea beverages. Through coupling with high-performance liquid chromatography, an analytical method was established under optimal extraction conditions and desorption, low limits of detection (0.010-0.070 μg L-1), wide linear ranges in 0.033-10 μg L-1, and excellent correlation coefficients (most of the r reach 0.999) were received. The relative standard deviations (RSDs, n = 3) of intra-day test and inter-day test were obtained corresponding to the ranges of 0.1-2.5% and 1.0-4.1%. Finally, the method was used for detecting trace PAHs in different tea beverages from the market.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Porous materials, especially porous silica particles are of great interest in different areas, and have applied in dental composites as inorganic fillers, due to their potential in constructing micromechanical interlocking at the filler-resin matrix interfaces. However, the facile and precise synthesis of hierarchical porous silica with graded sizes is still a great challenge. METHODS Here, we synthesized dendritic porous silica (DPS) with center-radial hierarchical pores and controllable size ranging from 75 to 1000nm by varying simultaneously the amounts of silica precursor and template in the microemulsion. A plausible nucleation-growth mechanism for the structural formation and the size tunability of the DPS particles was further put forward. These DPS particles were then formulated with Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin. RESULTS The particle size and morphology influenced the mechanical properties of dental composites. Particularly, DPS-500 particles (average size: 500nm) exhibited the superior reinforcing effect, giving large improvements of 32.0, 96.7, 51.9, and 225.6% for flexural strength (SF), flexural modulus (EY), compressive strength (SC), and work of fracture (WOF), respectively, over the DPS-75 filled composite. All DPS filler sized exhibited similar degree of conversions and curing depths. Furthermore, the DPS-500 filled composite presented better cytocompatibility than commercial Z250 XT. SIGNIFICANCE The facile synthesis of DPS particles developed here and the understanding of the influence of the filler size and morphology on the composite properties provide a shortcut to design porous silica with precise size control and dental composites with superior performance. These DPS particles could also have promising applications in biomedicine, catalysis, adsorption, and cancer therapy.

Abstract
Multi-functionalized fibrous silica KCC-1 (MF-KCC-1) bearing amine, tetrasulfide, and thiol groups was synthesized via a post-functionalization method and fully characterized by several methods such as FTIR, FESEM, EDX-Mapping, TEM, and N2 adsorption-desorption techniques. Due to abundant surface functional groups, accessible active adsorption sites, high surface area (572 m2 g-1), large pore volume (0.98 cm3 g-1), and unique fibrous structure, mesoporous MF-KCC-1 was used as a potential adsorbent for the uptake of acid fuchsine (AF) and acid orange II (AO) from water. Different adsorption factors such as pH of the dye solution, the amount of adsorbent, initial dye concentration, and contact time, affecting the uptake process were optimized and isotherm and kinetic studies were conducted to find the possible mechanism involved in the process. For both AF and AO dyes, the Langmuir isotherm model and the PFO kinetic model show the most agreement with the experimental data. According to the Langmuir isotherm, the calculated maximum adsorption capacity for AF and AO were found to be 574.5 mg g-1 and 605.9 mg g-1, respectively, surpassing most adsorption capacities reported until now which is indicative of the high potential of mesoporous MF-KCC-1 as an adsorbent for removal applications.

Abstract
Natural prodrugs derived from different natural origins (e.g., medicinal plants, microbes, animals) have a long history in traditional medicine. They exhibit a broad range of pharmacological activities, including anticancer effects in vitro and in vivo. They have potential as safe, cost-effective treatments with few side effects, but are lacking in solubility, bioavailability, specific targeting and have short half-lives. These are barriers to clinical application. Nanomedicine has the potential to offer solutions to circumvent these limitations and allow the use of natural pro-drugs in cancer therapy. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) of various morphology have attracted considerable attention in the search for targeted drug delivery systems. MSNs are characterized by chemical stability, easy synthesis and functionalization, large surface area, tunable pore sizes and volumes, good biocompatibility, controlled drug release under different conditions, and high drug-loading capacity, enabling multifunctional purposes. In vivo pre-clinical evaluations, a significant majority of results indicate the safety profile of MSNs if they are synthesized in an optimized way. Here, we present an overview of synthesis methods, possible surface functionalization, cellular uptake, biodistribution, toxicity, loading strategies, delivery designs with controlled release, and cancer targeting and discuss the future of anticancer nanotechnology-based natural prodrug delivery systems.

Abstract
In the pharmaceutical manufacturing, drug release behavior development is remained as one of the main challenges to improve the drug effectiveness. Recently, more focus has been done on using mesoporous silica materials as drug carriers for prolonged and superior control of drug release in human body. In this study, release behavior of paracetamol is developed using drug-loaded KCC-1-NH2 mesoporous silica, based on direct compaction method for preparation of tablets. The purpose of this study is to investigate the utilizing of pure KCC-1 mesoporous silica (KCC-1) and amino functionalized KCC-1 (KCC-1-NH2) as drug carriers in oral solid dosage formulations compared to common excipient, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), to improve the control of drug release rate by manipulating surface chemistry of the carrier. Different formulations of KCC-1 and KCC-NH2 are designed to investigate the effect of functionalized mesoporous silica as carrier on drug controlled-release rate. The results displayed the remarkable effect of KCC-1-NH2 on drug controlled-release in comparison with the formulation containing pure KCC-1 and formulation including MCC as reference materials. The pure KCC-1 and KCC-1-NH2 are characterized using different evaluation methods such as FTIR, SEM, TEM and N2 adsorption analysis.

Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), as a prominent point-of-care (POC) test platform, has been extensively adopted for rapid, on-site, and facile diagnosis of pathogen infections and disease biomarkers. Exploring novel structured optical labels of LFIA with amplified signal and complementary detection modes favors the sensitive and flexible POC diagnosis. Here, bimodal labels with both colorimetric and fluorescent readout were fabricated via a layered sequential assembly strategy based on affinity templates and hydrophobic metal-containing nanounits. High-quality colorimetric and fluorescent nanoparticles were densely incorporated into the colloidal supports and confined in separated regions, without interfering with each other. The hierarchical integration of gold nanoparticles and quantum dots with high loading density and good optical preservation realized dual readout and amplified signals from the assemblies of individual single nanoparticles. The "all-in-one" optical labels allowed both colorimetric and fluorescent detection of cystatin C (Cys C) after surface conjugation with antibodies. The LFIA strips revealed noninterfering dual signals for both visual inspection and quantitative detection of Cys C via the naked eye and portable devices, respectively. The limits of detection by colorimetric and fluorescent modes were 0.61 and 0.24 ng mL-1, respectively. The novel LFIA platform demonstrated sensitive, specific, and reproducible POC testing of biomarkers with flexible detection modes and was reliable for clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
A novel folic acid functionalized terbium-doped dendritic fibrous nanoparticle (Tb@KCC-1-NH2 -FA) with high surface area was synthesized using a novel hydrothermal protocol. In the present work, we report the fluorescent Tb-doted nanomaterial with emission wavelength at 497 nm which confirms the formation of Tb@KCC-1-NH2 -FA. Synthesized nanoparticles were investigated through transmission electron microscope, field emission scanning electron Microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, energy dispersive X-ray, Zeta potential and particle size distribution values and AFM (Atomic force microscopy) techniques. Specially, our desired nanomaterial which has FA moieties on the surface of Tb@KCC-1-NH2-FA where interact with folate receptor (FR) which there is on the surface of the various cancer cells. For this purpose, fluorescence microscopy images were used to prove the uptake of FA based nanomaterial with FR-positive MDA breast cancer and HT 29 colon cancer cells. Also HEK 293 normal cells as FR-negative cells verified the specificity of our desired nanomaterial toward the FR-positive cells. The cytotoxicity survey of Tb@KCC-1-NH2 -FA was examined by MTT assays against MDA breast cancer, HT 29 colon cancer and HEK 293 Normal cell lines which confirmed their biocompatible nature with any significant cytotoxic effects even for concentration higher than 900 μg/mL which could be used as a non-toxic catalyst or carrier in biological ambient. Hence, Tb@KCC-1-NH2 -FA were synthesized using green and hydrothermal method; the process was simple with good productivity and desired nanocomposite was non-toxic.

Abstract
The interest in the design and controlled fabrication of dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (DMSNs) emanates from their widespread application in drug-delivery carriers, catalysis and nanodevices owing to their unique open three-dimensional dendritic superstructures with large pore channels and highly accessible internal surface areas. A variety of synthesis strategies have been reported, but there is no basic consensus on the elucidation of the pore structure and the underlying formation mechanism of DMSNs. Although all the DMSNs show a certain degree of similarity in structure, do they follow the same synthesis mechanism? What are the exact pore structures of DMSNs? How did the bimodal pore size distributions kinetically evolve in the self-assembly? Can the relative fractions of small mesopores and dendritic large pores be precisely adjusted? In this review, by carefully analysing the structures and deeply understanding the formation mechanism of each reported DMSN and coupling this with our research results on this topic, we conclude that all the DMSNs indeed have the same mesostructures and follow the same dynamic self-assembly mechanism using microemulsion droplets as super templates in the early reaction stage, even without the oil phase.

Abstract
Dendritic large-pore mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DLMSN) is an important biodegradable drug carrier due to its high porosity, which can be prepared by coassembly of a major template and an auxiliary template in aqueous solution, followed by hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). The auxiliary template is key to obtaining dendritic large-pore structures; however, how to choose the auxiliary template to obtain the desired pore structure is largely unknown. This is because the formation mechanism of DLMSN is still not clear. In this study, a series of therapeutic agent molecules were used as the auxiliary templates to study the control of the pore morphology of DLMSN. Transmission electron microscopy observation and theoretical modeling were used to study the micelle formation, and early stage silica formation was also observed. It is proposed that the silica branches and sheets formed by hydrolysis of TEOS on single micelle and micelle bundles, which formed the initial nanoparticles with spherical structures and new silica species growing on the early formed particles to form DLMSN. The fine control of pore morphology was demonstrated by using auxiliary templates with different structural characteristics, which were used for selective drug loading. This work provides a design strategy of how to choose suitable auxiliary templates for preparing DLMSN with desired pore structure for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Dye removal from industrial waste water has become an important issue. The highvisibility, undesirability and recalcitrance are the significant environmental problemfor the dyes. In the present work,β-cyclodextrin functionalized KCC-1 (KCC-1-NH-β-CD)was synthesized and utilized to the removal of hazardous malachite green. In order to study the morphology of the synthesized nano adsorbent, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) were obtained from the surface of the sample. Additionally, the functionalization of KCC-1 with β-cyclodextrin was confirmed with Furrier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The textural property of KCC-1 was verified using nitrogen adsorption/ desorption analysis (BET equation). UV-Vis spectroscopy utilized for the investigation of malachite green by KCC-1-NH-β-CD. Specific surface area of the adsorbent was calculated to be 140 m2 /g and it can be stated that the synthesized nano adsorbent has high removal efficiency. It should be noted that the adsorption capacity of the employed nano adsorbent was more than 95%, which could be attributed to high porosity of β-cyclodextrin functionalized KCC-1.
