In this study, the adsorption characteristics of marine dissolved organic matters (MDOMs) on the solid-liquid interface in the coastal waters was investigated. The results showed that the organic macromolecules with adsorption ability in MDOMs are not rigid molecules. However, the macromolecules have viscoelasticity properties. At different dilution ratios, the MDOMs adsorption process includes rapid (0-200 s) and slow adsorption (200 s later) periods. MDOMs adsorption in the solid-liquid interface is a dynamic process in which adsorption and hydration occur simultaneously. MDOMs concentration is an important driving force for adsorption. The three macromolecules of acid polysaccharides, protein-like, and polycarboxylate-type humic acids in MDOMs are rich in functional groups and they have the ability to absorb to solid surface. Acidic polysaccharides exhibit a sustained adsorption ability, while the adsorption of other macromolecules occurred only in the initial rapid adsorption period. In addition, the acid polysaccharides show weak thixotropy during the adsorption process. It would cause the stretching of macromolecular structure of the adsorption layer, enhancing the hydration of the adsorption layer. The study shows the adsorption process of MDOMs at the solid-liquid interface and the structural characteristics of the adsorption layer. It can provide helpful information for the inhibition and removal of MDOMs pollution during the actual development of marine resources.

To observe the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process at the atomic scale, reactive force field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF-MD) was employed to simulate the polishing of 6 H-SiC under three conditions: dry, pure water, and HO solution. This study examined the reactants on the surface of 6 H-SiC during the reaction in the HO solution, along with the dissociation and adsorption processes of HO and water molecules. The mechanisms for atom removal during the CMP process were elucidated.

Hierarchical organization is prevalent in nature, yet the artificial construction of hierarchical materials featuring asymmetric structures remains a big challenge. Herein, we report a stress-induced self-assembly strategy for the synthesis of hierarchically twisted stripe arrays (HTSAs) with mesoporous structures. A soft and thin mesostructured film assembled by micelles and TiO oligomers is the prerequisite.

The carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS)-based porous beads are still criticized for their limited number of binding sites, which impairs their efficacy in removing aqueous pollutants. To overcome this challenge, this work introduces the production of covalently crosslinked CMCS-based beads containing SiO and poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) (PAMPS). The porous composite beads not only possess remarkable stability under acidic conditions, but also have abundant active binding sites for adsorption.

To mitigate the risk associated with water-soluble fluoride in tea and to have less influence on the contents of tea infusion, a highly selective lanthanum modified silk fibroin (SF) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite film (SF/PVA-La) was prepared to remove fluoride from brick tea infusion. Notably, SF/PVA-La could remove about 48 % of the fluoride from in brick tea infusion within 30 min. Importantly, the reduction in total tea polyphenols in brick tea did not exceed 10 %, and the reduction in caffeine was only 0.

This study investigates the mixing effects on the enzymatic hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and dilute-acid pretreated corncob substrates under high-solid conditions. Enzymatic hydrolysis experiments were conducted to assess cellulose conversion rates under varying mixing conditions (0, 50, 150, and 250 rpm) and solids loadings (5 %, 15 %, 25 %, and 35 %, w/v), and distinct physicochemical properties of the substrates were characterized. Additionally, the role of mixing conditions and solid loadings on cellulose hydrolysis kinetics and enzyme adsorption on both substrates and lignin were elucidated.
