Summary: Two new one-dimensional double-chain Ag(I) coordination polymers were synthesized and characterized. The structures of these polymers are different, with one being linear and the other being zigzagged. The fluorescence properties of the Ag(I) coordination polymers differ from the ligands, showing weakened fluorescence peaks attributed to ligand-centered fluorescence.

Summary: Coordination polymers of transition metal ions, such as silver(I), are important in coordination chemistry. Silver(I) coordination polymers are often insoluble in common solvents, making it difficult to analyze them in solution. However, by using a tetramethyl-substituted bipyrazole ligand, we have synthesized more soluble silver(I) complexes with coordinated ions CF3CO2- and CF3SO3-. We determined the structures of these complexes and studied their solution behavior using various spectroscopic techniques.

Summary: By hybridizing TiO2 photocatalyst with CaCO3 as the wall material and using linseed oil as the core material, self-cleaning and self-repairing microcapsules were produced using in-situ precipitation. The microcapsules were evaluated for their morphology, chemical composition, thermal stability, and self-cleaning and self-repairing properties. Results showed that the microcapsules had a rough and spherical surface, along with excellent thermal stability and repeatability. Increasing the dosage of microcapsules significantly increased the degradation rate of methylene blue, while the self-repairing effect of micro-cracks became more evident. The optimal microcapsule dosage was found to be 7.0 wt%.

Summary: The development of the textile industry has raised concerns due to the contamination of drinking water by organic dyes, which pose a carcinogenic risk to humans. Nanomaterials, particularly semiconductors, have been utilized for photocatalytic degradation of dye pollutants. Various parameters, such as catalyst dosage, irradiation time, light sources, initial dye concentration, temperature, and pH, play significant roles in the degradation process. Different generations of photocatalytic nanomaterials, including single metal nanoparticles, binary and ternary metal oxides, as well as inert solid substrates with photocatalysts, have been employed for dye degradation.

Summary: Panax ginseng, as an ethnomedicinal plant, has therapeutic effects in traditional medicine. This study investigated the potential use of green-synthesized silver nanoparticles from Panax ginseng leaf extract for the treatment of lung carcinoma and heart protection against mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiac dysfunction in obese insulin-resistant rats. The silver nanoparticles showed spherical morphology with a size range of 12.11 to 43.33 nm. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the silver nanoparticles significantly improved metabolic parameters, heart rate variability, cardiac function, and cardiac mitochondrial function in the rats. This study suggests that silver nanoparticles derived from Panax ginseng have cardioprotective effects.

Summary: Nanozyme based sensors have been developed as an effective method for detecting harmful metal ions in water samples. In this study, a Co(II) based coordination polymer nanoparticle (Co-CP NP) was synthesized and utilized as a nanozyme to detect Fe(II) ions selectively. The Co-CP NP exhibited peroxido-reductase mimicking activity, and the detection limit for Fe(II) ions was found to be 0.66 μM. The catalytic action of the Co-CP NP was further analyzed using Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and the detection mechanism was elucidated through XPS and zeta potential analysis.
