To overcome the recovery challenge of nanoscale photocatalysts, great endeavor has been paid to explore effective nano-TiO2 immobilization approaches, but comprehensive comparison between these methods is still lacking. Herein, four approaches, namely impregnation-calcination, sol-gel,...

Developing an emulsion separation material with one-step in-situ purifying capacity and enhanced security in applications, particularly for further scale-up, is of great value but remains a challenge. Herein, the amphiphilic sponge (PA@RGO@MS) was prepared via impregnation and in-situ growth of...

The development of highly efficient adsorptive material for the selective capture of Pd(II), and re-utilization of spent Pd(II)-loaded adsorbent as an efficient catalyst for organic synthesis are of great significance, but challenging. Particularly, the heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed Suzuki...

Three-dimensional (3D) materials that capture sunlight for desalination provide one promising solution to acquaring freshwater resources, but salt deposition and mechanical stability provide additional hurdles for continuous operation. Herein, this study presents a sustainable and elastic...
