“…For BNBs, generally recognized as spherical bubbles with the diameter of less than 1μm surrounded by liquid, though it has been observed firstly in 1981 4 , the existence of long-lived BNBs is still a controversial subject as it is contrary to the classical theory 5,6 . Recently, BNBs have been gradually revealed that it has not only unique physiochemical properties, but also great application prospect in many fields, such as biomedical imaging and targeted treatment 7,8 , hydrogen storage 9 , water treatment 10,11 , cleaning 12 and promoting the metabolism of living organisms 13,14 , which makes the investigation on BNBs have captured increasing interest.…”

Recently, bulk nanobubbles have attracted intensive attention due to the unique physicochemical properties and important potential applications in various fields. In this study, periodic pressure change was introduced to generate bulk nanobubbles. N2 nanobubbles with bimodal distribution and excellent stabilization were fabricated in nitrogen-saturated water solution. O2 and CO2 nanobubbles have also been created using this method and both have good stability. The influence of the action time of periodic pressure change on the generated N2 nanobubbles size was studied. It was interestingly found that, the size of the formed nanobubbles decreases with the increase of action time under constant frequency, which could be explained by the difference in the shrinkage and growth rate under different pressure conditions, thereby size-adjustable nanobubbles can be formed by regulating operating time. This study might provide valuable methodology for further investigations about properties and performances of bulk nanobubbles.

“…To apply interfacial nanobubbles in engineering fields, further understanding of their properties based on observation data is needed. So far, several experimental methods have been developed to observe interfacial nanobubbles with sufficient spatial resolution, such as liquid cell microscopy, [36][37][38] total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, 39,40 and atomic force microscopy (AFM). [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][20][21][22][23][41][42][43] Above all, AFM imaging is the most preferred because of the ability to collect threedimensional profiles with nanometer-scale resolution.…”

To accurately characterize the shape of interfacial nanobubbles using atomic force microscopy (AFM), we investigated the effect of wettability of the AFM tip while operating in the peak force tapping (PFT) mode. The AFM tips were made hydrophobic and hydrophilic by Teflon AF coating and oxygen plasma treatment, respectively. It was found that the measured base radius of nanobubbles differed between AFM height images and adhesion images, and that this difference depended on the tip wettability. The force curves obtained during the measurements were also different depending on the wettability, especially in the range of the tip/nanobubble interaction and in the magnitude of the maximum attractive force in the retraction period. The difference suggests that hydrophobic tips penetrate the gas/liquid interface of the nanobubbles, with the three phase contact line being pinned on the tip surface; hydrophilic tips on the other hand do not penetrate the interface. We then quantitatively estimated the pinning position and recalculated the true profiles of the nanobubbles by comparing the height images and adhesion images. As the AFM tip was made more hydrophilic, the penetration depth decreased and eventually approached zero. This result suggests that the PFT measurement using a hydrophilic tip is vital for the acquisition of reliable nanobubble profiles.

Among uncountable MOF materials, iron-containing metal organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) have excellent potential in practical applications owing to their many fascinating properties, such as diverse structure types, low toxicity, preferable stability, and tailored functionality. Here, recent research progresses of Fe-MOFs in attractive features, synthesis, and multifunctional applications are described. Fe-MOFs with porosity and tailored functionality are discussed according to the design of building blocks. Four types of synthetic methods including solvothermal, hydrothermal, microwave, and dry gel conversion synthesis are illustrated. Finally, the applications of Fe-MOFs in Li-ion batteries, sensors, gas storage, separation in gas and liquid phases, and catalysis are elucidated, focusing on the mechanism. The aim is to provide prospects for extending Fe-MOFs in more practical applications.Iron-Based Metal Organic Frameworks www.advancedsciencenews.com
