This study investigates the performance improvement of cellulose acetate (CA) membranes using Ti2AlN MAX phase as an inorganic additive. The results demonstrate the high potential of MAX phase-based materials in enhancing the performance of polymeric membranes.
To our knowledge, this study was carried out because there is no other study using Ti2AlN MAX phase material as an inorganic additive to improve the performance of the cellulose acetate (CA) membrane. In this research, the effect of titanium aluminum nitride (Ti2AlN) MAX phase on the performance of CA polymeric membrane was investigated. In the first step, the Ti2AlN MAX phase was synthesized via the reactive sintering method and characterized. The Successful synthesis of the MAX phase with high purity in the hexagonal crystalline structure was confirmed with the XRD pattern. The prepared MAX phase was used as a hydrophilic inorganic additive to improve the performance of the CA membrane. An improvement in hydrophilicity of the CA membranes was observed by incorporating the MAX phase into the matrix of membranes. The nanocomposite membrane containing optimum content of MAX phase (0.75 wt%) showed a threefold increase in permeability during filtration of pure water and dye solutions. In addition, the optimum nanocomposite membrane exhibited an improved flux recovery ratio of 92.7 % with a high removal efficiency of 70.7 % for reactive black 5, 93.5 % for reactive red 120, and >98 % for bovine serum albumin. Finally, the rejection of different salts was investigated, and the optimum nanocomposite showed high rejection for lead ions (97 %) with moderate rejection for Na2SO4 (>55 %) and NaCl (>30 %). The results of this research demonstrated the high potential of MAX phase-based materials for improving polymeric membranes.

A Targeted Review of Current Progress, Challenges and Future Perspective of g-C3N4 based Hybrid Photocatalyst Toward Multidimensional Applications

Asif Hayat, Muhammad Sohail, Usama Anwar, T. A. Taha, H. I. A. Qazi, Amina, Zeeshan Ajmal, Abdullah G. Al-Sehemi, Hamed Algarni, Ahmed A. Al-Ghamdi, Mohammed A. Amin, Arkom Palamanit, W. Nawawi, Emad F. Newair, Yasin Orooji

Summary: The increasing demand for sustainable energy production has led to the extensive use of solar power technology, particularly in the combustion of pollutants, CO2 reduction, photocatalysis, and hydrogen gas production. Semiconductor-based photocatalysis, such as g-C3N4, has emerged as a promising solution due to its superior electronic configuration and high performance. However, g-C3N4's photocatalytic activity is hindered by its small surface area and charge recombination. Various synthetic strategies have been employed to enhance photocatalytic performance by incorporating g-C3N4 with different materials. This review provides an overview of the latest g-C3N4-based materials and their applications in solar energy and environmental management.

Incorporation of 2D-biotene to polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membrane with superhydrophilicity and antifouling properties for removal of organic pollutants

Mahsa Haddad Irani-nezhad, Alireza Khataee, Vahid Vatanpoor, Samira Arefi-Oskoui, Yasin Orooji

Summary: For the first time, exfoliated 2D-Biotene (E-BIT) with one or few layers was prepared through a cost-effective liquid-phase exfoliation of bulk biotite (B-BIT). Different characterization methods were used to verify the successful preparation of E-BIT. The transparency of E-BIT to the electron beam indicated its small thickness after exfoliation, which was also confirmed by AFM results. E-BIT was then utilized as a nano-additive to improve the properties of polyethersulfone (PES) polymeric membrane. The modified membranes showed improved hydrophilicity and enhanced flux and elimination efficiency for various substances, with a high flux recovery ratio.

High-throughput intact Glycopeptide quantification strategy with targeted-MS (HTiGQs-target) reveals site-specific IgG N-glycopeptides as biomarkers for hepatic disorder diagnosis and staging

Xuejiao Liu, Bin Fu, Jierong Chen, Zhenyu Sun, Dongdong Zheng, Zhonghua Li, Bing Gu, Ying Zhang, Haojie Lu

Summary: Liver disease is a major cause of global mortality, and identifying biomarkers for diagnosing its progression is crucial for improving outcomes. Targeted mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for verifying biomarker candidates and clinical applications, particularly for glycoproteins translation. However, the limitation of analyzing only one sample per run has become apparent. In this study, a high-throughput intact N-glycopeptides quantification strategy was developed, allowing the validation of 20 samples per run with an average analysis time of 3 minutes per sample. The strategy was applied in a cohort of 461 serum samples and identified a panel of 10 IgG N-glycopeptides that have strong clinical utility in evaluating the severity of liver disease.
