As the effective use of carbon resources has become a pressing societal issue, the importance of chemical recycling of plastics has increased. The catalytic chemical decomposition for plastics is a promising approach for creating valuable products under efficient and mild conditions. Although several commodity and engineering plastics have been applied, the decompositions of stable resins composed of strong main chains such as polyamides, thermoset resins, and super engineering plastics are underdeveloped.

Low-pressure catalytic membranes allow efficient rejection of particulates and simultaneously removing organics pollutant in water, but the accumulation of dissolved organic matters (DOM) on membrane surface, which cover the catalytic sites and cause membrane fouling, challenges their stable operation in practical wastewater treatment. Here we propose a ferric salt-based coagulation/co-catalytic membrane integrated system that can effectively mitigate the detrimental effects of DOM. Ferric salt (Fe) serving both as a DOM coagulant to lower the membrane fouling and as a co-catalyst with the membrane-embedded MoS nanosheets to drive perxymonosulfate (PMS) activation and pollutant degradation.

4,4'-Dichlorodiphenyl sulfoxide is the main raw material for the manufacture of polysulfone, polyether sulfone and other engineering plastics. It is also an intermediate for medicines, dyes and pesticides, which has been widely utilized in engineering plastics, fine chemicals and other fields. The alkylation of chlorobenzene with thionyl chloride can give 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfoxide as a product using Lewis acidic ionic liquids.

ConspectusCompositing MOFs with polymers brings out the best properties of both worlds. The solubility and excellent mechanical properties of polymers endow the brittle, powdery MOFs with enhanced processability, thereby enriching their functions as solid sorbents, filters, membranes, catalysts, drug delivery vehicles, and so forth. While most MOF-polymer composites are random mixtures of two materials with little control over their fine structures, MOF@polymer core-shell particles have recently emerged as a new platform for precise composite design.

A high-performing bipolar membrane (BPM) was fabricated using functionalized polysulfones as the ion-exchange layers (IELs) and two-dimensional (2D) VO-nanosheets blended with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the water dissociation catalyst (WDC) at the interfacial layer. The composite BPM showed a low resistance of 0.79 Ω cm, confirming the good contact between the IEL and WDC, much needed for the ionic conductivity.
