Abstract
Formaldehyde (HCHO) poses a significant threat as a common indoor air pollutant, leading to various health issues. However, effectively addressing HCHO removal at room temperature remains a considerable challenge. This paper presents the preparation of a robust, eco-friendly, and biodegradable composite cellulose nanofiber film, incorporating CeO2-Ag@MnO2 catalysts and TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber (TOCNF), for high-efficiency HCHO removal at room temperature. A CeO2-Ag@MnO2 ternary catalyst with a core-shell structure was constructed to enhance the catalytic oxidation activity and stability. This structure increased the number of active sites on the catalyst surface and enhanced the interfacial synergistic effect of Ce-Ag-Mn. The TOCNF physically adsorbed HCHO in the composite film, while the catalyst oxidized it to CO2 and water. The composite films, particularly those with 20 wt% CeO2-Ag@MnO2 catalyst, exhibited high HCHO removal rates of 91.2 % at 20 °C and 99.6 % at 60 °C. Furthermore, the TOCNF/20 CAM composite films demonstrated excellent mechanical properties and degradability. This composite film offers an efficient and eco-friendly solution for the catalytic oxidation of HCHO at room temperature.

Abstract
The paper reports on the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals/reduced graphene oxide matrix loaded with cuprous oxide nanoparticles (CNC/rGO-Cu2O) through a simple solvothermal method and its application for 4-nitrophenol reduction to 4-aminophenol using sodium borohydride. The CNC/rGO-Cu2O nanocomposite was formed chemically by first mixing CNC and graphene oxide (GO) followed by complexation of the negatively charged functional groups of CNC/GO with Cu2+ ions and subsequent heating at 100°C. This resulted in the simultaneous reduction of GO to rGO and the formation of Cu2O nanoparticles. The as-elaborated nanocomposite was firstly characterized using different techniques such as atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Then, it was successfully applied for efficient catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol using sodium borohydride: the reduction was completed in about 6 min. After eight times use, the catalyst still maintained good catalytic performance. Compared to CNC/rGO, rGO/Cu2O and free Cu2O nanoparticles, the CNC/rGO-Cu2O nanocomposite exhibits higher catalytic activity even at lower copper loading.

Fluorescent Noncovalent Organic Framework for Supporting Gold Nanoparticles as Heterogeneous Catalyst with Merits of Easy Detection and Recycle. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2303834.

Abstract
A porous noncovalent organic framework with AIE effect is designed and synthesized as the support for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The framework is fabricated through the electrostatic complexation between carboxymethyl cellulose and tetraphenylethene-containing ammonium surfactant, which can complex AuNPs via the noncovalent interactions to offer a heterogeneous catalyst. Compared to the covalent modification on cellulose, this noncovalent framework gains superiorities in the catalyst synthesis and the size control of AuNPs. The AIE property and water-insolubility allow such heterogeneous catalysts to be easily detected, separated, and recycled, opening a new pathway for the reduction of nitrobenzene compounds and some dye compounds in aqueous conditions, which present the features of green chemistry. The use of cellulose for developing new heterogeneous metal catalysts, especially in a noncovalent way, would promote the value-added utilization of cellulose. This work provides a design strategy for gaining heterogeneous metal catalysts by taking advantage of natural bioresources.

Abstract
Cationic nanomaterials are promising candidates for the development of effective antibacterial agents by taking advantage of the nanoscale effects as well as other exceptional physicochemical properties of nanomaterials. In this study, carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals (cCNCs) derived from softwood pulp were coated with cationic poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) of varying molecular weights. The resulting cationic carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals coated with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (cCNCs-PDDA) nanomaterials were characterized for their structural and morphological properties using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Cationic cCNCs-PDDA were investigated for their antibacterial properties against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli 23934 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using a bacterial lawn growth inhibition assay. cCNC-PDDA materials displayed marked antibacterial activity, particularly against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. Overall, our results indicated that cCNCs-PDDA could be a potential candidate for antibacterial applications such as antibacterial surfaces or coatings.

Abstract
As the most abundant natural biopolymer on earth, celluloses have long-term emerged as a capable platform for diverse purposes. In the context of metal nanoparticles applied to catalysis, the alternatives to traditional catalyst supports by using biomass-derived renewable materials, likely nanocelluloses, have been paid a great effort, in spite of being less exploited. In this study, cellulose nanocrystals were isolated from corn leaf via chemical treatment involving alkalizing, bleaching and acid hydrolysis. The crystallinity of obtained cellulose was evaluated in each step, focusing on the effects of reactant concentration and reaction time. Cellulose nanocrystals were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), evidencing the presence of cellulose nanospheres (crystallinity index of 67.3% in comparison with 38.4% from untreated raw material) in the size range of 50 nm. Without using any additional surfactants or stabilizers, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) well-dispersed on the surface of cellulose nanocrystals (silver content of 5.1 wt%) could be obtained by a simple chemical reduction using NaBH4 at room temperature. The catalytic activity was evaluated in the selective reductions of 4-nitrophenol towards 4-aminophenol and methyl orange towards aromatic amine derivatives in water at room temperature. The effects of catalyst amount and reaction time were also studied in both reduction processes, showing near-quantitative conversions within 5 minutes and obeying the pseudo-first-order kinetics, with the apparent kinetic rate constants of 8.9 × 10-3 s-1 (4-nitrophenol) and 13.6 × 10-3 s-1 (methyl orange). The chemical structure of the catalytic system was found to be highly stable during reaction and no metal leaching was detected in reaction medium, evidencing adaptability of cellulose nanocrystals in immobilizing noble metal nanoparticles.

Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer and deserves the special attention of the scientific community because it represents a sustainable source of carbon and plays an important role as a sustainable energent for replacing crude oil, coal, and natural gas in the future. Intense research and studies over the past few decades on cellulose structures have mainly focused on cellulose as a biomass for exploitation as an alternative energent or as a reinforcing material in polymer matrices. However, studies on cellulose structures have revealed more diverse potential applications by exploiting the functionalities of cellulose such as biomedical materials, biomimetic optical materials, bio-inspired mechanically adaptive materials, selective nanostructured membranes, and as a growth template for inorganic nanostructures. This article comprehensively reviews the potential of cellulose structures as a support, biotemplate, and growing vector in the formation of various complex hybrid hierarchical inorganic nanostructures with a wide scope of applications. We focus on the preparation of inorganic nanostructures by exploiting the unique properties and performances of cellulose structures. The advantages, physicochemical properties, and chemical modifications of the cellulose structures are comparatively discussed from the aspect of materials development and processing. Finally, the perspective and potential applications of cellulose-based bioinspired hierarchical functional nanomaterials in the future are outlined.

Abstract
The growth of industrialization and the population has increased the usage of fossil fuels, resulting in the emission of large amounts of CO2. This serious environmental issue can be abated by using sustainable and environmentally friendly materials with promising novel and superior performance as an alternative to petroleum-based plastics. Emerging nanomaterials derived from abundant natural resources have received considerable attention as candidates to replace petroleum-based synthetic polymers. As renewable materials from biomass, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) nanomaterials exhibit unique physicochemical properties, low cost, biocompatibility and biodegradability. Among a plethora of applications, CNCs have become proven nanomaterials for energy applications encompassing energy storage devices and supercapacitors. This review highlights the recent research contribution on novel CNC-conductive materials and CNCs-based nanocomposites, focusing on their synthesis, surface functionalization and potential applications as supercapacitors (SCs). The synthesis of CNCs encompasses various pretreatment steps including acid hydrolysis, mechanical exfoliation and enzymatic and combination processes from renewable carbon sources. For the widespread applications of CNCs, their derivatives such as carboxylated CNCs, aldehyde-CNCs, hydride-CNCs and sulfonated CNC-based materials are more pertinent. The potential applications of CNCs-conductive hybrid composites as SCs, critical technical issues and the future feasibility of this endeavor are highlighted. Discussion is also extended to the transformation of renewable and low-attractive CNCs to conductive nanocomposites using green approaches. This review also addresses the key scientific achievements and industrial uses of nanoscale materials and composites for energy conversion and storage applications.

Abstract
Recently, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are extensively used as peroxidase mimics. However, low catalytic activity, high synthesis cost, substrate-induced aggregation in reaction medium and difficulty in recovery and reuse still remain as major challenges. Here, a novel, simple, spontaneous, and reagent-less in-situ method for the production of AuNPs using dialdehyde cellulose nanofibrils (DACNF) is proposed. AuNPs synthesis time and size were greatly influenced by aldehyde content and the optimal aldehyde content for ultra-small AuNPs (≈10 nm) was 2.1 mM/g. AuNPs@DACNFs exhibited broad-spectrum peroxidase activity and steady-state kinetics revealed their better kinetic parameters (low Km and high Vmax) over horseradish peroxidase (HRP). AuNPs@DACNFs was further converted into paper strip, which served as a biosensor for H2O2 and cholesterol detection. The proposed method exhibited wide linear response in the range of 10-90 μM and 0.05-0.45 mM, and detection limit of 0.39 μM and 1.9 μM for H2O2 and cholesterol, respectively. Great shelf life and reusability were evident by FE-SEM and ICP-OES analysis. The smartphone application "Color Grab" was used to enable the portable onsite detection. The results of cholesterol detection in human serum samples were in agreement with clinically observed values, suggesting the great potential of the probe in disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Cellulose was used as a support for immobilizing a Ni(ii) complex of 1,2-bis(4-aminophenylthio)ethane to prepare NiII(BAPTE)(NO3)2-Cell as a new organo–inorganic hybrid nanocatalyst. The properties of the prepared catalyst were studied using various analyses such as FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TGA and EDX. NiII(BAPTE)(NO3)2-Cell was employed as a reusable catalyst for the synthesis of spirooxindole derivatives via a three-component condensation of isatin, malononitrile and reactive methylene compounds. The nanocatalyst can be readily and quickly separated from the reaction mixture and can be reused for at least eight successive reaction cycles without a significant reduction in efficiency. The facile accessibility to the starting materials, use of green solvents and conducting the reactions in eco-friendly and cost-effective conditions have made this protocol a suitable method for preparing spirooxindole derivatives. NiII(BAPTE)(NO3)2-Cell as a novel cellulose supported catalyst has been prepared and characterized by various techniques including FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TGA and EDX.![]()

Abstract
In a matter of decades, nanomaterials from biomass, exemplified by nanocellulose, have rapidly transitioned from once being a subject of curiosity to an area of fervent research and development, now reaching the stages of commercialization and industrial relevance. Nanoscale chitin and chitosan, on the other hand, have only recently begun to raise interest. Attractive features such as excellent biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, immunogenicity, as well as the tuneable handles of their acetylamide (chitin) or primary amino (chitosan) functionalities indeed display promise in areas such as biomedical devices, catalysis, therapeutics, and more. Herein, we review recent progress in the fabrication and development of these bio-nanomaterials, describe in detail their properties, and discuss the initial successes in their applications. Comparisons are made to the dominant nanocelluose to highlight some of the inherent advantages that nanochitin and nanochitosan may possess in similar application.

Abstract
In recent years, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have emerged as a leading biomass-based nanomaterial owing to their unique functional properties and sustainable resourcing. Sulfated cellulose nanocrystals (sCNCs), produced by sulfuric acid-assisted hydrolysis of cellulose, is currently the predominant form of this class of nanomaterial; its utilization leads the way in terms of CNC commercialization activities and industrial applications. The functional properties, including high crystallinity, colloidal stability, and uniform nanoscale dimensions, can also be attained through carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals (cCNCs). Herein, we review recent progress in methods and feedstock materials for producing cCNCs, describe their functional properties, and discuss the initial successes in their applications. Comparisons are made to sCNCs to highlight some of the inherent advantages that cCNCs may possess in similar applications.

Abstract
The environmental crisis, due to the rapid growth of the world population and globalisation, is a serious concern of this century. Nanoscience and nanotechnology play an important role in addressing a wide range of environmental issues with innovative and successful solutions. Identification and control of emerging chemical contaminants have received substantial interest in recent years. As a result, there is a need for reliable and rapid analytical tools capable of performing sample analysis with high sensitivity, broad selectivity, desired stability, and minimal sample handling for the detection, degradation, and removal of hazardous contaminants. In this review, various gold–carbon nanocomposites-based sensors/biosensors that have been developed thus far are explored. The electrochemical platforms, synthesis, diverse applications, and effective monitoring of environmental pollutants are investigated comparatively.

Hybrid Nanoparticles Based on Cobalt Ferrite and Gold: Preparation and Characterization. METALS 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/met11050705] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
During the past few decades, hybrid nanoparticles (HNPs) based on a magnetic material and gold have attracted interest for applications in catalysis, diagnostics and nanomedicine. In this paper, magnetic CoFe2O4/Au HNPs with an average particle size of 20 nm, decorated with 2 nm gold clusters, were prepared using methionine as a reducer and an anchor between CoFe2O4 and gold. The methionine was used to grow the Au clusters to a solid gold shell (up to 10 gold deposition cycles). The obtained nanoparticles (NPs) were studied by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. The TEM images of the obtained HNPs showed that the surface of cobalt ferrite was covered with gold nanoclusters, the size of which slightly increased with an increase in the number of gold deposition cycles (from 2.12 ± 0.15 nm after 1 cycle to 2.46 ± 0.13 nm after 10 cycles). The density of the Au clusters on the cobalt ferrite surface insignificantly decreased during repeated stages of gold deposition: 21.4 ± 2.7 Au NPs/CoFe2O4 NP after 1 cycle, 19.0 ± 1.2 after 6 cycles and 18.0 ± 1.4 after 10 cycles. The magnetic measurements showed that the obtained HNPs possessed typical ferrimagnetic behavior, which corresponds to that of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles. The toxicity evaluation of the synthesized HNPs on Chlorella vulgaris indicated that they can be applied to biomedical applications such as magnetic hyperthermia, photothermal therapy, drug delivery, bioimaging and biosensing.

Abstract
Novel microwave-assisted green in-situ synthesis of positively charged gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) supported by cationic cellulose nanofibrils (C.CNF) within 30 s and devoid of additional reducing agent is reported. Peroxidase activity of these positive AuNPs was studied and that appeared to be superior over its negative charged counterpart. Further the AuNPs@C.CNF is casted into a film which makes it reusable. Using TMB substrate, simple and sensitive colorimetric detection methods for H2O2 and glucose were established. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges were found to be 0.5-30 μM and 1-60 μM, and the detection limits were 0.30 and 0.67 μM for H2O2 and glucose, respectively. The film was potentially reused for the detection of glucose up to five cycles without a decrease in the activity. Further, this technique was employed to quantify glucose in human serum samples, and the obtained results were comparable with those of the standard GOD-POD method.

Abstract
Due to environmental concerns, increasing attention has been focused on the application and preparation of biobased polymers and their blends. In this study, cellulose, the most spread biopolymer on Earth, was used in the preparation of novel cotton/polypropylene-Au and cotton/polyethylene-Au nanocomposites via a green mechanochemical approach. First, mechanoradicals were generated by ball milling of the cotton and thermoplastics under cryo conditions, and then, these radicals were used in the reduction of Au ions to Au nanoparticles (Au NPs). Nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The application of mechanochemistry in obtaining the cotton/thermoplastic blends allowed homogenous and fine blending of the samples and in addition, excluded the usage of toxic solvents. Since Au NPs exhibit a wide range of applications, e.g., in catalysis, cotton/thermoplastic-Au nanocomposites were used to catalyze the reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol to
4-aminophenol, followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy. Finally, the hydrophobicity of the nanocomposites was alternated by tuning the blend composition. In the prepared nanocomposites, cotton and thermoplastics acted as very good supporting matrices for the Au NPs and provided satisfactory access to the NPs.

Abstract
In this report, chitin and chitosan nanocrystals were used as biomass-based supports for Pd nanoparticles (NPs) used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the Heck coupling reaction. By using a one-pot fabrication method, a Pd salt precursor was directly reduced and deposited onto these nanocrystal catalysts. Characterization of these nanocomposites showed disperse Pd NPs on the surfaces of the chitinous nanocrystals. Heck coupling model reactions revealed full product yield in relatively benign conditions, outcompeting the use of other catalysts supported on biomass-based nanomaterials, including cellulose nanocrystals. These initial results show the potential for using chitinous nanomaterials as effective catalyst supports in cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) gold nanoshell was prepared using a polymer-coated CNC as a template. A seed-mediated shell growth approach (ex situ) was employed, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of two sizes were prepared, and the effect of the size of AuNP on the shell quality (smoothness, evenness, and continuity) was elucidated. Additionally, a novel one-pot synthesis approach (in situ) was evaluated for the preparation of the gold nanoshell, where polymer-coated CNCs with adsorbed ascorbic acid were used to reduce Au ions to form a metallic gold shell on CNC. The surface coverage was manipulated by adding different amounts of plating solutions. The formation and morphology of gold nanoshells were evaluated by zeta potential measurements, dynamic light scattering, UV-vis spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The catalytic performance of the CNC-gold nanostructures for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) was governed by the surface area of gold shells.

Abstract
A novel deodorizer that is capable of selectively eliminating the odorous chemicals, such as ammonia, trimethylamine, hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan, is described. The deodorizer is a nanostructured aerogel by nature, consisting of 2,2-6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (CNF), transition metal divalent cations (M2+), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) as the constitutive elements. CNF are firstly mixed with M2+ (M2+, in this paper, typifies Ni2+, Co2+ and Cu2+) to form CNF-M2+ complexes, monodispersed CNT is then mixed to prepare CNT/CNF-M2+ waterborne slurries; CNT/CNF-M2+ hybridized aerogels are finally obtained via freezing-drying of the CNT/CNF-M2+ waterborne slurries. The CNT/CNF-M2+ aerogels are a foam-like structure consisting of CNF and CNT as backbones and M2+ as linkers. The aerogels show higher capabilities (in comparison with activated carbon) for selectively adsorbing ammonia, trimethylamine, hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan. Computing simulations suggest a theoretical conclusion that the odorous chemicals are absorbed in a preferring manner of bimolecular absorptions via the M2+ moieties. The CNT/CNF-M2+ hybridized aerogels are lightweight, eco-friendly, and easy to produce in industrial scales. Our new finding, as is described in this paper, demonstrates potential applications of the TEMPO-oxidized CNF to the field of deodorizations.

Abstract
:
Propargylamines are an important constituent of diverse, biologically active
and industrially valuable compounds. These useful, convenient and effective compounds
can be synthesized via the A3-coupling reactions between an aldehyde, amine, and alkyne
in the presence of a catalyst. In the past years, most of the catalysts containing transition
metals were applied in these reactions, but today, various heterogeneous catalysts, especially
nanocatalysts are used. The purpose of this review was to introduce some modern
catalysts for the A3-coupling reaction.

Abstract
Calcium hydroxide is used in diverse applications including heritage conservation where supplying it in the form of nanoparticles allows easy carbonation with atmospheric air contacts. The effects of cellulose nanofibers on the precipitation of calcium hydroxide nanoparticles were investigated by varying the reaction time, concentration, and carboxylation content of cellulose nanofibers. Cellulose nanofibers were very effective in producing calcium hydroxide nanoparticles with less than 50 nm sizes out of calcium nitrate-sodium hydroxide precipitation reactions. The formation of smaller-size calcium hydroxide nanoparticles is believed to be the result of heterogeneous nucleation and growth of calcium hydroxide particles on cellulose nanofibers. The liquid-phase nucleated and grown calcium hydroxide nanoparticles were also deposited onto cellulose nanofibers. The resulting calcium hydroxide nanoparticles were carbonized and generated calcite under atmospheric carbon dioxide in an efficient way.

Abstract
Silver-based antimicrobial nanomaterials are considered as the most promising antibacterial agents owing to their outstanding antimicrobial efficacy and their relatively low toxicity to human beings. In this work, we report on a facile and environment-friendly microwave-hydrothermal method to prepare cellulose/Ag nanocomposites using hemicellulose as the reductant. The influences of the microwave-hydrothermal heating time and temperature, as well as the hemicellulose concentration on the formation of cellulose nanocomposites, were investigated in detail. Experimental results indicated that the hemicellulose was an effective reductant for silver ions, with higher temperature and longer heating time favoring the formation of silver with higher crystallinity and mass content in the nanocomposites. Moreover, the antimicrobial properties of the as-prepared cellulose/Ag nanocomposites were explored using Gram-positive S. aureus ATCC 6538 and Gram-negative E. coli HB 101 by both disc diffusion method and agar dilution method, and the nanocomposites showed excellent antibacterial activity. These results demonstrate that the as-prepared cellulose/Ag nanocomposites, as a kind of antibacterial material, are promising for applications in a wide range of biomedical fields.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to remove heavy metals from wastewater through the biosorption method with modified biomass as an effective sorbent and to prepare metal/biomass composites with the same modified biomass as a direct template. Eggshell membrane (ESM) was selected and modified to adsorb heavy metals. Adsorption of metal ions on the modified ESM (MESM) might be attributed to electrostatic interaction, ion exchange and coordination effect with chelating ligands containing N and S on the surface of the MESM. The pH of the solution was a key factor affecting the adsorption. The Cu-Ag/MESM composites with uniform Cu-Ag NPs were prepared with MESM as matrices, and with Cu2+ and Ag+ adsorbed as metal sources. The Cu-Ag/MESM showed excellent catalytic performance in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol in the aqueous phase. Because of the high stability of the Cu-Ag NPs supported on the macro-dimension supporter, Cu-Ag/MESM can be easily separated after the catalytic reaction and recycled.

Abstract
The reusability of hybrid core-shell microgels, whose core surfaces were decorated with gold nanoparticles, was investigated in terms of catalysis activity. Hybrid core-shell microgels composed of a rigid core and water-swollen gel shell endowed the immobilized gold nanoparticles with a high dispersion stability, which resulted in excellent catalytic activity. In contrast to free Au nanoparticles and conventional hybrid microgels, where the Au nanoparticles are randomly distributed over the entire microgel templates, the hydrogel shell part of the hybrid core-shell microgels suppressed the aggregation between the microgels and Au nanoparticles in individual microgels, which improved the reusability for the catalysis reaction. The results of this study should help to develop advanced catalyst systems that require high reusability even when the chemical reactions occur in aqueous solution and external stimuli are applied.
