Microfluidic Fabrication of Monodisperse and Recyclable TiO 2-Poly(ethylene glycol) Diacrylate Hybrid Microgels for Removal of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Medium. LANGMUIR : THE ACS JOURNAL OF SURFACES AND COLLOIDS 2023; 39:18784-18796. [PMID: 38093553 PMCID: PMC10753884 DOI: 10.1021/acs.langmuir.3c02276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
Nearly monodisperse titanium oxide-polyethylene glycol diacrylate [TiO2-P(EGDA)] hybrid microbeads containing 0.5 wt % TiO2 nanoparticles entrapped within a P(EGDA) cross-linked polymeric network were synthesized using a modular Lego-inspired glass capillary microfluidic device. TiO2-P(EGDA) hybrid microgels were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The fabricated TiO2-P(EGDA) hybrid microgel system showed 100% removal efficiency of methylene blue (MB) from its 1-3 ppm aqueous solutions after 4 h of UV light irradiation at 0.2 mW/cm2 at the loading of 25 g/L photocatalyst beads in the reaction mixture, corresponding to the loading of naked TiO2 of just 0.025 g/L. No decrease in photocatalytic efficiency was observed in 10 repeated runs with recycled photocatalyst using a fresh 1 ppm MB solution in each cycle. The rate of photocatalytic degradation was controlled by the UV light irradiance, catalyst loading, and the initial dye concentration. Physical adsorption of MB onto the surface of composite microgel was also observed. The adsorption data was best fitted with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the Elovich kinetic model. TiO2-P(EGDA) microgel beads are biocompatible, can be prepared with a tunable size in the microfluidic device, and can easily be separated from the reaction mixture by gravity settling. The TiO2-P(EGDA) system can be used for the removal of other toxic dyes and micropollutants from industrial wastewater.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:ma16093385.

Abstract
The present work describes the potential application of environmentally friendly sodium carboxymethylcellulose/gelatin (CMC/Gel) semi-interpenetrating hydrogels prepared by citric acid as a nontoxic cross-linking agent to adsorb dyes. The prepared hydrogels were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTG), and swelling study. The adsorption performance of CMC/Gel2 (C/G2) hydrogel on methylene blue (MB) was investigated. The results showed the better adsorption conditions: adsorption time of 300 min, initial MB concentration of 500 mg/L, adsorbent dosage of 1.2 g/L, solution pH of 7, and temperature of 30 °C. The adsorption kinetics fit the pseudo-second order kinetics model, and the adsorption isotherm fit the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 943.40 mg/g. The adsorption process is a spontaneous exothermic process. After three adsorption-desorption cycles, the removal rate of MB by hydrogel still reached 85%, with good reusability. Consequently, the hydrogel can be used as an environmentally friendly, stable, and efficient adsorbent for dyes in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Photonic materials based on composite films of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and polymers are promising as they can be renewable and show tunable optical and mechanical properties. However, the influence of polymers on CNC self-assembly is not always well understood, and conflicting results are present in the literature. In this study, we incorporate three neutral, water-soluble polymers-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)-with different molecular weights into CNC suspensions at various concentrations prior to obtaining iridescent composite thin films by solvent evaporation. Through spectroscopic, potentiometric, and rheological analyses, we find that PVP physically adsorbs to the surface of CNCs resulting in a bathochromic shift in film color with both increasing concentration and polymer molecular weight. In contrast, PEG induces depletion interactions that result in a decrease in the size of chiral nematic CNC domains, with a negligible change in film color. Finally, PAA hydrogen bonds to the hydroxyl groups of CNCs, resulting in a bathochromic color shift along with interesting rheological and liquid-state properties. This work demonstrates a deeper understanding of CNC-polymer interactions during coassembly and formation of iridescent chiral nematic films, allowing for greater control over optical properties of future CNC-based materials.

Abstract
In this study, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were produced from pea peels by acid hydrolysis to be used with pectin and acrylic acid (AAc) to form Pectin-PAAc/CNC nanocomposite by γ-irradiation. The structure, morphology, and properties of the nanocomposite were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. The nanocomposite hydrogel was used for the removal of methylene blue dye (MB) from wastewater. The results revealed that the presence of CNCs in the polymeric matrix enhances the swelling and adsorption properties of Pectin-PAAc/CNC. The optimum adsorbate concentration is 70 mg/L. The kinetic experimental data were fit by pseudo-first-order (PFO), pseudo-second-order (PSO), and Avrami (Avr) kinetic models. It was found that the kinetic models fit the adsorption of MB well where the correlation coefficients of all kinetic models are higher than 0.97. The Avr kinetic model has the lowest ∆qe (normalized standard deviation) value, making it the most suitable one for describing the adsorption kinetics. The adsorption isotherm of MB by Pectin-PAAc follows the Brouers–Sotolongo model while that by Pectin-PAAc/CNC follows the Langmuir isotherm model. The negative values of ∆G confirmed the spontaneous nature of adsorption, and the positive value of ∆H indicated the endothermic nature of the adsorption.

Abstract
Polymeric nanocomposites (PNC) have an outstanding potential for various applications as the integrated structure of the PNCs exhibits properties that none of its component materials individually possess. Moreover, it is possible to fabricate PNCs into desired shapes and sizes, which would enable controlling their properties, such as their surface area, magnetic behavior, optical properties, and catalytic activity. The low cost and light weight of PNCs have further contributed to their potential in various environmental and industrial applications. Stimuli-responsive nanocomposites are a subgroup of PNCs having a minimum of one promising chemical and physical property that may be controlled by or follow a stimulus response. Such outstanding properties and behaviors have extended the scope of application of these nanocomposites. The present review discusses the various methods of preparation available for PNCs, including in situ synthesis, solution mixing, melt blending, and electrospinning. In addition, various environmental and industrial applications of PNCs, including those in the fields of water treatment, electromagnetic shielding in aerospace applications, sensor devices, and food packaging, are outlined.

Abstract
Methylene blue (MB) is categorized as an organic dye (OD) released as effluents after various industrial activities and is one of the most abundant pollutants in the aquatic environment. Significantly, because of its potential toxicity, removing MB from wastewater has been a matter of necessity in recent times. Numerous analytical techniques have been applied, among which polysaccharide-based composite hydrogels appear as the most favorable for MB removal because of their large surface area, excellent mechanical properties, swelling capability, and large-scale production. In this review, the first section gives adequate information about the ODs' adverse effects on the environment and the contribution of polysaccharide-based hydrogels for OD removal, especially MB. Next, various mechanisms such as electrostatic interactions, π-π interactions, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction, van der Waals force, and coordination interaction involved in the adsorption technique are investigated. The third section extensively describes the MB removal by incorporation of various materials such as monomers, metal oxides, magnetic nanoparticles, and clay into the polysaccharide matrix to produce composite hydrogels. Finally, the current limitations and future perspectives of the polysaccharide-based composite hydrogel techniques are addressed. Overall, this review acknowledged the vital role of polysaccharide-based composite hydrogels for MB adsorption by surveying 110 research articles published in the past five years (2015-2021).

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
In this work, polyacrylic acid modified ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4-PAA) was synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method. The magnetic nanospheres modified with carboxyl groups were combined with epsilon-polylysine (EPL) via an EDC/NHS coupling reaction to obtain Fe3O4-PAA-EPL nanospheres. Fe3O4-PAA-EPL was employed as an antibacterial agent against Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris and characterized by XRD, FTIR, XPS, VSM, SEM and TEM techniques. Experimental results showed the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of Fe3O4-PAA-EPL against A. acidoterrestris was 1.25 mg mL-1. Furthermore, A. acidoterrestris treated with Fe3O4-PAA-EPL nanospheres obviously lysed. Morphological analysis of bacteria supported by SEM indicated that the cell membrane of A. acidoterrestris was damaged, revealing that Fe3O4-PAA-EPL is an effective antibacterial agent. Additionally, the nanospheres with excellent magnetism can be simply separated from a reaction system via an external magnet. The construction of magnetic nanospheres with satisfactory antibacterial activity provides an effective and new method to control A. acidoterrestris.

Abstract
In this work, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl-oxidized cellulose nanocrystals (TOCNs) were loaded into sodium alginate/chitosan multilayer film as nanofillers to investigate the modulation of the surface charge density of TOCNs on the film properties. First, the surface charge density of TOCNs was controlled by adjusting the carboxyl content and morphological size by varying the oxidant dosage. After oxidation, TOCN with higher surface charge density was observed to display a higher crystallinity, a more open internal structure, a better dispersibility and a slightly weaker thermal stability. In addition, a 15-layer film composed of sodium alginate and chitosan, called (SA/CH)15, was constructed by layer-by-layer assembly. Both in situ deposition monitoring and free-standing multilayer film formation indicated that TOCNs relied on strong electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding to achieve a compact and uniform interlayer and a thinner thickness of (SA/CH)15, which was more evident at a high surface charge density. The addition of TOCNs also enhanced the mechanical properties, thermal stability, hydrophobicity, and barrier properties of (SA/CH)15. In particular, the resulting sodium alginate/chitosan multilayer film exhibited an improved packaging performance when nanocomposite was performed using TOCN with a surface charge density of 3.22 ± 0.11 e nm-2.

Abstract
Natural biopolymers, polymeric organic molecules produced by living organisms and/or renewable resources, are considered greener, sustainable, and eco-friendly materials. Natural polysaccharides comprising cellulose, chitin/chitosan, starch, gum, alginate, and pectin are sustainable materials owing to their outstanding structural features, abundant availability, and nontoxicity, ease of modification, biocompatibility, and promissing potentials. Plentiful polysaccharides have been utilized for making assorted (nano)catalysts in recent years; fabrication of polysaccharides-supported metal/metal oxide (nano)materials is one of the effective strategies in nanotechnology. Water is one of the world's foremost environmental stress concerns. Nanomaterial-adorned polysaccharides-based entities have functioned as novel and more efficient (nano)catalysts or sorbents in eliminating an array of aqueous pollutants and contaminants, including ionic metals and organic/inorganic pollutants from wastewater. This review encompasses recent advancements, trends and challenges for natural biopolymers assembled from renewable resources for exploitation in the production of starch, cellulose, pectin, gum, alginate, chitin and chitosan-derived (nano)materials.
