Irradiation of a number of different sutures largely employed in the clinical practice with either high energy electrons or with γ-rays followed by quenching with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) conveniently led to derivatization through a radical-based process. The radicals involved were detected by means of ESR spectroscopy and were characterized on the basis of their ESR spectral parameters which were also found to be consistent with the hfs constants predicted by DFT calculations. Evidence of the GMA derivatization of the sutures was obtained via(13)C CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy, while its extent was evaluated gravimetrically.

Article Synopsis
- Recent advances in cobalt-based catalysts highlight their effectiveness as activators for persulfate in degrading dyes and organic pollutants within sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes.
- Researchers created magnetic cobalt nanoparticles embedded in a carbon hydrogel (Co@C), which showed exceptional performance in degrading reactive red 141 (RR141) more efficiently than other azo dyes tested.
- The catalyst maintained high efficiency across varying conditions and could be easily recovered and reused multiple times, making it a promising solution for wastewater purification.

With excellent designability, large accessible inner surface, and high chemical stability, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising candidates as metal-free heterogeneous catalysts. Here, we report two 3D radical-based COFs (JUC-565 and JUC-566) in which radical moieties (TEMPO) are uniformly decorated on the channel walls via a bottom-up approach. Based on grafted functional groups and suitable regular channels, these materials open up the application of COFs as highly efficient and selective metal-free redox catalysts in aerobic oxidation of alcohols to relevant aldehydes or ketones with outstanding turn over frequency (TOF) up to 132 h , which has exceeded other TEMPO-modified catalytic materials tested under similar conditions.

Nanocellulose (NC) is getting ahead as a renewable, biodegradable and biocompatible biomaterial. The NCs for this study were recovered from industrial cotton waste (CFT) by acid hydrolysis (HNC) and by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) mediated oxidation (ONC). They were functionalized by radical based glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) grafting providing crystalline HNC-GMA and ONC-GMA, and by allylation (ALL) providing amorphous HNC-ALL and ONC-ALL.

Heterogeneous catalysts for persulfate activation were synthesized using ferrocene and carbon nanofiber as precursor by one-pot hydrothermal method and their performances of catalysts for persulfate activation were evaluated via ibuprofen degradation efficiencies. The structure of the catalyst was identified as carbon encapsulated FeO grafted on carbon nanofibers (FeO@C/CNFs) by multiple characterization methods. The CNF supporter could greatly reduce the magnetization of FeO and increase the coercivity, which effectively avoided agglomeration.

In this study, cellulose nanofibers are used as a template to synthesise magnetic nanoparticles with a uniform size distribution. Magnetic nanoparticles are grafted on the surface of nanofibers via in situ hydrolysis of metal precursors at room temperature. Effects of different concentrations of nanofibers on the morphology, the crystallite size of magnetic nanoparticles, and the thermal and magnetic properties of the membrane produced from the cellulose nanofibers decorated with magnetic nanoparticles are examined.
