“…The estimated rate constants are listed in Table . The resulting rate constants for Ru/ReS 2 and Pd/ReS 2 are found to be much higher than or comparable with those obtained by nanomaterial‐based catalysts (Table S1) ,,. During the exfoliation process of bulk ReS 2 , the defect sites may probably form due to the sulfur vacancies (defect sites) of ReS 2 on the surface .…”

The nanohybrids of noble metal (M = Ag, Au, Pd, Pt, and Ru) nanoparticle-decorated rhenium disulfide nanosheets (ReS 2 NSs) were demonstrated as excellent catalysts towards the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds. The M/ReS 2 nanohybrids were synthesized by facile hydrothermal method and characterization results proved that each metal nanoparticle was anchored on the ReS 2 NSs. These nanohybrids exhibited superior catalytic performance towards the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds including 4-nitrophenol, 2nitroaniline, and nitrobenzene. Interestingly, the Ru/ReS 2 and Pd/ReS 2 showed enhanced catalytic reduction compared to Ag/ReS 2 , Au/ReS 2 , and Pt/ReS 2 and also showed significant catalytic stability due to metal nanoparticles anchored strongly on the surface of ReS 2 NSs. Moreover, these M/ReS 2 nanohybrids turned out to have much better catalytic performance compared to noble metal nanoparticle-based catalysts. A plausible reduction mechanism was proposed for each nitro compound. It was verified that the metal-nanoparticle-mediated hydrogen transfer was involved in the reduction of nitro compounds to amines. This report demonstrates the catalytic activities for metal nanoparticledecorated ReS 2 nanohybrids, which can serve as a paradigm to open up a future trend in the design of transition metal dichalcogenides nanohybrids as superior catalysts.

“…The result of the PNIPAM/NiTi sample showed peaks at 1636 cm −1 corresponding to the stretching vibration absorption peak of C O in the PNIPAM polymer, at 1541 cm −1 corresponding to the C–N–H bending vibration absorption peak, at 3284 cm −1 corresponding to the N–H stretching vibration absorption peak of the amide group, and at 1458 cm −1 corresponding to the antisymmetric bending vibration absorption peak of –CH 3 and the symmetric bending vibration absorption peak of –CH 2 , and it showed a group of three peaks between 2800 and 3000 cm −1 which were assigned to C–H stretching vibrations. In addition, the interaction between the C–H stretching and bending vibration of the isopropyl group produced two splitting peaks with similar strength at 1387 and 1367 cm −1 , which confirmed the existence of the isopropyl group [ [31] , [32] , [33] ]. The appearance of these peaks provided strong evidence for the successful loading of PNIPAM onto the substrate surface.…”

“…To replace the expensive noble metal nanoparticles, several semiconductors such as MoS 2 , TiO 2 , CdS, and Cu 2 O were also incorporated into microgel systems to degrade 4-nitrophenol, pendimethalin, rhodamine B, and methyl orange. Specifically, Cu 2 O/PNIPAm hybrid microgels were prepared with a Cu 2 O nanocube as the core and a PNIPAm polymeric network as the shell to remove dyes from water .…”

To overcome the current scarcity of fresh water sustainably, new technologies will be required that produce potable water from a range of sources, including seawater and moisture from the atmosphere. Moreover, we must recover and reuse water from wastewater streams to reduce our global water footprint. To date, there remain significant concerns about the environmental/ecological impact, high energy consumption, and extensive maintenance costs of current technologies that might prevent their transition to more sustainable routes of potable water generation. One class of material that can enable low-energy water production is thermoresponsive polymers. Due to their unique phase behavior, production flexibility, and biocompatibility, these materials may allow for sustainable routes to fresh water in current and new technologies. In this Perspective, we specifically summarize the design and application of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-(PNIPAm-) based thermoresponsive microgels and hydrogels. In particular, we show how these materials have been used for water purification, including wastewater treatment, seawater desalination, and moisture harvesting from the atmosphere. Finally, we discuss the opportunities and challenges of transforming current thermoresponsive materials into practical water-related technologies.
