Abstract
Using N-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM) as the main monomer, 1-vinyl imidazole (VIM) containing tertiary amine groups as the functional comonomer, and 1,5-dibromo pentane as the crosslinking agent, ionic P(NIPAM-co-VIM) microgels were prepared by a two-step method. The crosslinking agent was reacted with tertiary amino groups by the quaternary amination. The results of zeta potential and particle size analysis showed that P(NIPAM-co-VIM) microgels were positively charged and had a particle size of about 400 nm, and the microgels with 11 wt% VIM still showed temperature sensitivity with a volume phase transition temperature of approximately 37.5 °C. The effects of VIM content, ambient temperature, and pH on the adsorption properties of the microgels for phosphate anions were explored. The self-assembly of the positively charged P(NIPAM-co-VIM) microgels with polyelectrolytes and the adsorption behavior of the layers for phosphate anions were studied using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). It was found that at a phosphate concentration of 0.3 mg mL-1, VIM mass fraction of 11%, pH of 5, and temperature of 20 °C, the largest adsorption capacity of P(NIPAM-co-VIM) microgel on phosphate ions could reach 346.3 mg g-1. The frequency responses of the microgel-modified QCM sensor could reach 3.0, 18.8, and 25.9 Hz when exposed to 10-8, 10-7, and 10-6 M phosphate solutions. Therefore, the ionic (PNIPAM-co-VIM) microgels could be promising for fabricating anion-binding materials for separation and sensing applications.

Coupled catalytic dephosphorylation and complex phosphate ion-exchange in networked hierarchical lanthanum carbonate grafted asymmetric bio-composite membrane.

Abstract
The remediation of non-reactive phosphate pollutants in the aquatic system is essential for protecting the ecological niche. In this work, a highly robust protein nanoparticles networked rare-earth metal carbonate-grafted bio-composite membrane (abbreviated as REMC) was fabricated via chemical crosslinking of three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical lanthanum carbonate (mREM) and casein nanoparticles (CsNPs) for selective rejection of non-reactive phosphates. The main components of the REMC membrane are mREM and CsNPs, which were prepared via SDS/CTAB templated homogeneous precipitation and the coacervation/desolvation hybrid method, respectively. The active lanthanum ion (La3+) on the 3D spherulitic surface of mREM exhibited excellent phosphate adsorption capacity (maximum adsorption capacity was 358 mg.g-1) across a wide pH range and in a multi-ionic environment. A series of batch testing and characterizations revealed that the active La3+ and dominating phosphate centers in the REMC membrane framework enable non-enzymatic phosphatase-like activity, cleaving the phosphate ester bond of organic phosphates and releasing free phosphate anions. These released phosphate ions are retained in the REMC membrane via an ion exchange mechanism, where they contribute to improved phosphate removal capacities. Furthermore, CsNPs have a dual function in the membrane, acting as a matrix in the REMC membrane framework and contributing to phosphate ion sequestrations in a synergistic manner. The catalysis of para-nitrophenyl phosphates (pNPP) to paranitrophenol (pNP) in a sequential dephosphorylation by REMC offers an estimate of reaction kinetics and elucidates the underlying mechanism of improved phosphate selectivity in a multi-ionic environment. Furthermore, phosphate specificity, homogeneous binding capacity, reusability, and visual observation of REMC membrane saturation binding direct it's useful economic, industrial applications in aqueous phosphate contaminant removal, which could be beneficial for the active recovery of the aquatic ecosystem.

Abstract
Using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and acrylic acid (AAc) as monomers, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a cross-linking agent, and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) as functional particles, a P(NIPAM-co-AAc)/MoS2 composite hydrogel was prepared by free radical polymerization initiated by ultraviolet light. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy show that MoS2 has been successfully introduced into the P(NIPAM-co-AAc) system, and the obtained composite hydrogel has a porous network structure. Studies on the swelling property and dye adsorption performance show that the addition of MoS2 can increase the swelling ratio of P(NIPAM-co-AAc) hydrogels to a certain extent and can significantly improve the ability of the P(NIPAM-co-AAc) hydrogel to adsorb methylene blue (MB). The adsorption process of MB by the composite hydrogels conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm adsorption models. The estimated equilibrium adsorption capacity (Q m) using the Langmuir isotherm model can reach 1258 mg/g, mainly due to the electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged groups -COO- and MoS2 particles on the network structure and the positively charged dye MB. The adsorption of MB by P(NIPAM-co-AAc)/MoS2 composite hydrogels depends on the temperature during adsorption. Compared with room temperature, a high temperature of 40 °C above the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) phase transition temperature (∼32 °C) leads to a decreased adsorption capacity of the P(NIPAM-co-AAc)/MoS2 composite hydrogel for MB due to the enhanced hydrophobic properties of the network structure and the decrease of the swelling ratio. The prepared hydrogel material can be used as a good adsorbent for dyes, which is promising in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
This study aimed to reveal the interaction between self-assembled multilayers and dye molecules in the environment, which is closely related to the multilayers' stable performance and service life. In this work, the pH-responsive poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) microgels were prepared by free-radical copolymerization and self-assembled with sodium alginate (SA) into multilayers by the layer-by-layer deposition method. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) results confirmed the construction of multilayers and the absorbed mass, resulting in a decrease in the frequency shift of the QCM sensor and the deposition of microgel particles on its surface. The interaction between the self-assembled SA/microgel multilayers and anionic dyes in the aqueous solution was further investigated by QCM, and it was found that the electrostatic attraction between dyes and microgels deposited on the QCM sensor surface was much larger than that of the microgels with SA in multilayers, leading to the release of the microgels from the self-assembled structure and a mass loss ratio of 27.6%. AFM observation of the multilayer morphology exposed to dyes showed that 29% of the microgels was peeled off, and the corresponding microgel imprints were generated on the surface. In contrast, the shape and size of the remaining self-assembled microgel particles did not change.
