Abstract
Herein, initially, we present a general overview of the global financial support for chemistry devoted to materials science, specifically intercalation layered compounds (ILCs). Subsequently, the strategies to synthesise these host structures and the corresponding guest-host hybrid assemblies are exemplified on the basis of some families of materials, including pillared clays (PILCs), porous clay heterostructures (PCHs), zirconium phosphate (ZrP), layered double hydroxides (LDHs), graphite intercalation compounds (GICs), graphene-based materials, and MXenes. Additionally, a non-exhaustive survey on their possible application in the field of energy through electrochemical storage, mostly as electrode materials but also as electrolyte additives, is presented, including lithium technologies based on lithium ion batteries (LIBs), and beyond LiBs with a focus on possible alternatives such XIBs (X = Na (NIB), K (KIB), Al (AIB), Zn (ZIB), and Cl (CIB)), reversible Mg batteries (RMBs), dual-ion batteries (DIBs), Zn-air and Zn-sulphur batteries and supercapacitors as well as their relevance in other fields related to (opto)electronics. This selective panorama should help readers better understand the reason why ILCs are expected to meet the challenge of tomorrow as electrode materials.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28093825. [PMID: 37175235 PMCID: PMC10179811 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28093825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Catalytic ozonation for the total mineralization of bisphenol-A (BPA) from aqueous solution was investigated in the presence of various silica-based catalysts such as mesoporous silica, acid-activated bentonite (HMt) and montmorillonite-rich materials (Mt) ion-exchanged with Na+ and Fe2+ cations (NaMt and Fe(II)Mt). The effects of the catalyst surface were studied by correlating the hydrophilic character and catalyst dispersion in the aqueous media to the silica content and BPA conversion. To the best of our knowledge, this approach has barely been tackled so far. Acid-activated and iron-free clay catalysts produced complete BPA degradation in short ozonation times. The catalytic activity was found to strongly depend on the hydrophilic character, which, in turn, depends on the Si content. Catalyst interactions with water and BPA appear to promote hydrophobic adsorption in high Si catalysts. These findings are of great importance because they allow tailoring silica-containing catalyst properties for specific features of the waters to be treated.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl starch (CMS) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) loaded by highly dispersed metal subnanoparticles (MSNPs) showed antibacterial activity against E. coli and B. subtilis strains. Copper and silver were found to act in both cationic and zero-valence forms. The antibacterial activity depends on the metal species content but only up to a certain level. Silver cation (Ag+) showed higher antibacterial activity as compared to Ag0, which was, however, more effective than Cu0, due to weaker retention. The number of carboxyl groups of the biopolymers was found to govern the material dispersion in aqueous media, the metal retention strength and dispersion in the host-matrices. Cation and metal retention in both biopolymers was found to involve interactions with the oxygen atoms of both hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. There exists a ternary interdependence between the Zeta potential (ZP), pH induced by the biocidal agent and its particle size (PS). This interdependence is a key factor in the exchange processes with the surrounding species, including bacteria. Clay mineral incorporation was found to mitigate material dispersion, due to detrimental competitive clay:polymer interaction. This knowledge advancement opens promising prospects for manufacturing metal-loaded materials for biomedical applications.

Abstract
We report the growth of CuS/ZnS (CZS) nanoparticles (NPs) on the graphene sheet by a facile green synthesis process. The CuS/ZnS-graphene (CZSG) nanocomposites exhibit enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity towards organic dye (methylene blue) degradation than that of CZS nanoparticles. To find the reason for the enhanced photo-activity, we propose a new photocatalytic mechanism where graphene in the CZSG nanocomposites acts as a 'photosensitizer' for CZS nanoparticles. This distinctive photocatalytic mechanism is noticeably different from all other previous research works on semiconductor-graphene hybrid photocatalysts where graphene behaves as an electron reservoir to capture the electrons from photo-excited semiconductor. This novel idea of the photocatalytic mechanism in semiconductor-graphene photocatalysts could draw a new track in thinking for designing of graphene-based photocatalysts for solving environmental pollution problems and they also show remarkable antimicrobial activities.

Abstract
The role of the retention strength of Cu0 and Ag0 nanoparticles on the induced antibacterial properties of montmorillonite and cellulose-supported polyol dendrimer was comparatively investigated. An unprecedented approach involving X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermal analyses, and surface charge measurements allowed correlating the host–matrix features to the different antibacterial activities of Cu0 and Ag0 nanoparticles against both the bacterial strains. Optimal metal–matrix interactions appear to favor high dispersion of both metal particles and material grains, thereby improving the contact surface with the cultivation media. This was explained in terms of hydrophilic character and judicious compromise between the metal retention by the host–matrix and release in the impregnating media. Competitive Lewis acid–base interactions appear to occur between MNP, solid surface and liquid media. These findings are of great importance, providing a deeper understanding of the antibacterial activity of metal-loaded materials. This opens promising prospects for vegetal fibers and clay-supported drugs to treat dermatological and gastro-intestinal infections. The role of the retention strength of Cu0 and Ag0 nanoparticles on the induced antibacterial properties of montmorillonite and cellulose-supported polyol dendrimer against Escherichia coli DH5α and Bacillus subtilis 168 was comparatively investigated.![]()

A Novel Forming Method of Traditional Chinese Medicine Dispersible Tablets to Achieve Rapid Disintegration Based on the Powder Modification Principle. Sci Rep 2018; 8:10319. [PMID: 29985460 PMCID: PMC6037753 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-28734-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2018] [Accepted: 06/28/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Slow disintegration and poor solubility are common problems facing the dispersible tablets of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In an early study, the research group found that co-grinding of extracts and silica could achieve a rapid disintegration effect, though the mechanism of this effect was not thoroughly elucidated. In this study, Yuanhu Zhitong dispersible tablets (YZDT) were selected as a model drug to explore the mechanism of rapid disintegration and dissolution. First, eight types of silica were used to prepare modified YZDT, and their disintegration time and amount of dissolution within 5 min were measured. Next, the powder properties of eight types of silica were investigated. By correlation analysis, it was found that the average pore size and density of silica were closely related to the effect of promoting disintegration. It was determined that the co-grinding of silica and extracts provided high porosity for the raw material drug, and its abundant narrow channels provided a strong static pressure for water penetration to achieve a rapid disintegration effect. Meanwhile, it was found that the addition of silica had a certain effect on promoting dissolution. Our results provide a highly operational approach for improving the disintegration and dissolution of TCM dispersible tablets. Meanwhile, this approach is also beneficial for establishing a high-quality evaluation index for silica.
