The ionic covalent organic framework (TPB-BFBIm-iCOF) was facilely synthetized by the size-controllable confinement method and chosen as the online solid phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent. This adsorbent showed fast adsorption equilibrium (5 min) and high adsorption capacity (87.7-140.8 mg g) for the per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs). The TPB-BFBIm-iCOF microsphere revealed the satisfactory enrichment performance for PFASs by means of the electrostatic interaction, hydrophobic effect and ordered channel structure. After extraction, the loaded TPB-BFBIm-iCOF-online SPE column was eluted and applied to the ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry analysis. Under the optimum conditions, the method displayed satisfactory linearity (R ≥ 0.9910) and low limits of detection (≤0.0017 ng g) for five seafoods. The relative recoveries of PFASs were 85.3%-109.4% with the relative standard deviation ≤ 9.9%. The method exhibited potential value in monitoring the toxicokinetics and environmental behaviors of PFASs.

Marine sulfated polysaccharides constitute a class of bioactive polymers commonly found in cell walls of macroalgae. Among these macromolecular substances, fucoidans, ulvans, and carrageenans have attracted considerable attention providing interesting therapeutic properties affected by a combination of various structural factors, such as sulfation pattern, molecular weight, monosaccharide composition, and glycosidic linkages. Remarkably, chemical modification, enzymatic hydrolysis and crosslinking are promising approaches for developing the application of these polysaccharides through enhancement and/or addition of new biological properties.

Polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles (PECNPs) often fully dissociate into individual polycations (PC) and polyanions (PA) at high salinities. Herein, we introduce a novel type of colloidally stable PECNP in which the PC is cross-linked, in this case branched polyethylenimine (PEI) to limit this dissociation, even in solutions up to 5.2 M NaCl or 5.

Conductive hydrogels are utilized in flexible sensors due to their high-water content, excellent elasticity, and shape controllability. However, the sharp increase in resistance of this material under enormous strain leads to instability in the sensing process. This study presents a straightforward method for creating a stable, recyclable, hybrid ionic-electronic conductive (HIEC) hydrogel via a simple one-pot strategy using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), bagasse cellulose nanofibrils (CNF), and graphene(G) with sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS).

Self-assembly of proteins and polyelectrolytes in aqueous solutions is a promising approach for the development of advanced biotherapeutics and engineering efficient biotechnological processes. Synthetic polyions containing sterically repulsive ethylene oxide moieties are especially attractive as protein modifying agents, as they can potentially induce a PEGylation-like stabilizing effect without the need for complex covalent binding reactions. In this study, we investigated the protein-binding properties of anionic polyelectrolytes based on an inorganic polyphosphazene backbone, with ethylene oxide groups incorporated into both grafted and linear macromolecular topologies.

The fluoride-ion battery (FIB) is a post-lithium anionic battery that utilizes the fluoride-ion shuttle, achieving high theoretical energy densities of up to 1393 Wh L without relying on critical minerals. However, developing liquid electrolytes for FIBs has proven arduous due to the low solubility of fluoride salts and the chemical reactivity of the fluoride ion. By introducing a chemically stable electrolyte based on 1,3-dimethylimidazolium [MMIm] bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [TFSI] and tetramethylammonium fluoride (TMAF), we achieve an electrochemical stability window (ESW) of 4.
