“…Besides, the core-shell structure offers the advantage of preventing agglomeration, resulting in numerous benefits. PR coating has antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antitumour properties [ 22 , 23 ]. Moreover, other inorganic materials such as iron oxide, zinc oxide, cobalt, and nickel, have strong biological behaviour, thus the core-shell material adds value to the inorganic core with the polymer coating.…”

“…Zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the inorganic biocides that affects many types of microorganisms through several mechanisms, such as disruption of membrane bacteria through exposure to ZnO, the liberation of zinc ions (Zn 2+ ), interaction of intracellular content with Zn 2+ , and formation of reactive oxygen species (H 2 O 2 ) [ 34 ]. In an interesting study, Soleymani Lashkenari et al improved the antibacterial ability and the membrane surface hydrophilicity through the combination of PR and ZnO on a polysulfone (PSf) membrane [ 22 ]. A contact-active mechanism revealed PR has antibacterial activity.…”

“…Metal oxides are commonly incorporated into the polymer membrane to improve antimicrobial activity. Some of the metal oxides used in membrane modification were MgO, GO, , SiO 2 , ZnO, and Ag 2 O. , Ahsani et al proved that polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes with the Ag–SiO 2 metal oxide have stronger biofouling resistance than pure PVDF membranes . Because of its catalytic, optical, and conductive properties, silver oxide has received a lot of attention .…”

Synergistic Effect of Chitosan and Metal Oxide Additives on Improving the Organic and Biofouling Resistance of Polyethersulfone Ultrafiltration Membranes

The combination of chitosan and metal oxides was utilized as an addition to improve the fouling resistance of polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration membranes. Pure water flux, membrane hydrophilicity by the contact angle, scanning electron micrographs, and Fourier-transform infrared spectra were used to characterize the membranes. With the addition of metal oxides, the modified membrane’s water flux increased. The PES membrane with 0.25% wt chitosan and 2.0% wt AgNO3 had the highest flux and antibacterial activity among the membranes tested. Because of its potential to improve membrane hydrophilicity, the water flux increased with the addition of chitosan and AgNO3. Because of the improved hydrophilicity, the contact angle reduced as chitosan and Ag loading was increased. The PES–chitosan–Ag2O (from AgNO3 2.0% wt) membrane had high antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, whereas the PES–2.0% wt Ag membrane did not show the same result. Finally, the addition of chitosan in the PES–Ag membrane increased the membrane’s antibacterial activity substantially.

Polyrhodanine/Zinc Oxides (PRh/ZnO) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized through an in‐situ polymerization method. After that, the nanocomposites served as a substrate for bimetallic nickel‐platinum (Ni−Pt) to form PRh/ZnO/Ni/Pt electrocatalyst. Characterization methods including field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and x‐ray diffraction analysis (XRD) were then employed to investigate the morphology and chemical structure of synthesized samples. Next, the electrochemical activity of fabricated PRh/ZnO/Ni/Pt electrocatalyst in methanol electrooxidation reaction in alkaline media was investigated via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometric (CA) measurements. The experimental results indicated that the addition of Ni to the synthesized PRh/ZnO/Pt led to a higher electrochemically active surface area (EASA). Also, from the CV tests, a desirable amount of maximum anodic current density was achieved for the PRh/ZnO/Ni/Pt, which was as much as 35 mA cm−2. With regard to the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, computational results suggested that utilizing the PRh/ZnO structure beside Ni and Pt resulted in the improvement of the reactivity of catalyst and a decrease in the energy gap which was consistent with the experimental findings.
