Abstract
Nickel@MXene quantum dots (Ni@MQDs), as novel flower-like hybrid materials, were firstly prepared through a simple reduction method. The Ni@MQDs exhibited an outstanding catalytic performance for Cr (VI) reduction with a low activation energy (Ea = 18.9 kJ mol-1) and a high kinetic constant (k = 0.4779 min-1) in the presence of formic acid (HCOOH). Density functional theory calculations demonstrated that Ni@MQDs exhibited an upshift of d-band center of active Ni atoms to promote the adsorption of both HCOOH and active H atoms, as well as an improved conductivity to boost the catalytic reaction kinetics, leading to the most favorable catalytic performance. This work may open up a new avenue towards the design and synthesis of novel MQDs-based hybrid catalysts for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Silver nanostructure decorated-titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposite systems with their unique characteristics provide extraordinary performance in various applications including surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), and photocatalysis. Despite the recent progress, novel, simple, effective, low-cost, reducing and stabilizing agent-free, and easy-to-tune approaches are heavily demanded for the preparation of these nanocomposites. In this context, we propose the fabrication of silver nanostructure decorated TiO2 nanowires (TiO2 NWs) through a thin interphase layer of the polymer of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-l-alanine (PLDOPA). In the first step, TiO2 NWs were synthesized through the hydrothermal method and then a conformal thin film of PLDOPA was deposited onto the TiO2 NWs (TiO2@PLDOPA) by oxidative polymerization of l-DOPA. Having various functional groups including catechol and amine, the PLDOPA thin-film reduced the silver ions onto the TiO2 NWs and stabilized the resultant nanocomposites without the employment of any surfactant, reducing agent, and seed material. By simply tuning the amount of silver ions, we could manipulate the size, morphology, and interparticle distance of silver nanostructures decorated onto the TiO2@PLDOPA colloidal composite system (TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag NP). The TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag nanocomposite systems provided unique properties as an ideal SERS platform and photocatalyst. The optimized TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag nanosystem demonstrated a high SERS activity, reproducibility, and self-cleaning property with an enhancement factor of 5.1 × 105. As a photocatalyst, the TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag NP systems provided remarkable performance under visible light irradiation in the catalytic degradation of methylene blue.

Abstract
Core-shell gold nanorod (AuNR)@silver (Ag) nanostructures with their unique properties have gained enormous interest and are widely utilized in various applications including sensor systems, catalytic reactions, diagnosis, and therapy. Despite the recent progress, simple, effective, low-cost, and easy-to-tune strategies are heavily required to fabricate these nanoparticles (NP) systems. For this, we propose the employment of the polymer of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) as a ligand molecule. A conformal thin layer of polymer of L-DOPA (PLDOPA) with its various functional groups enabled the reduction of silver ions onto the AuNRs and stabilization of the resultant NPs without using any surfactant, reducing agent, and seed material. The shape and growth model of the AuNR@Ag nanostructures was manipulated by simply tuning the amount of silver ions. This procedure created different NP morphologies ranging from concentric to acentric/island shape core-shell nanostructures. Also, even at the highest Ag deposition, the PLDOPA layer is still conformally present onto the Au@Ag core-shell NRs. The unique properties of NP systems provided remarkable characteristics in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, catalytic activity, and cell viability tests.

Metallic Nanoparticle-Decorated Polydopamine Thin Films and Their Cell Proliferation Characteristics. COATINGS 2020.

Abstract
Plasmonic metal nanoparticle (NP)-decorated thin films of biobased and biocompatible polymers provide significant opportunities in various biomedical applications. Inspired from the adhesive proteins of the marine mussels, polydopamine (PDA) serves as a versatile, biocompatible, and simple thin-film material and enhances cell growth and proliferation. Herein, we report the fabrication of the gold NPs (AuNPs) or silver NPs (AgNPs)-deposited thin films of PDA and their employment in cell growth and proliferation. PDA thin film with its numerous functional groups enabled well-controlled adsorption of NPs. The number density of NPs was manipulated simply by tuning the deposition time. Cell viability test for human lung cancer (A549) and human colon cancer (CaCO2) cell lines indicated that a thin layer of PDA film remarkably enhanced the cell growth and proliferation. The lower number density of NPs for the 24 h of the culture time resulted in a higher proliferation rate. However, the increase in both the number density of NPs and culture time led to a decrease in cell growth.

Abstract
The development of stable and effective iodine removal systems would be highly desirable in addressing environmental issues relevant to water contamination. In the present research, a novel iodine adsorbent was synthesized by self-polymerization of dopamine (PDA) onto inert polypropylene (PP) membrane. This PP/PDA membrane was thoroughly characterized and its susrface propeties was analyzed by various analytical techniques indcluding field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH), contact angle, and surface free energy measurement. The PP/PDA membranes were subsequently used for batchwise removal of iodine at different temperatures (25-70 °C), pH (2-7), and surface areas (1-10 cm2) to understand the underlying adsorption phenomena and to estimate the membrane capacity for iodine uptake. The increase in temperature and pH both led to higher adsorption of iodine. The present approach showed a removal efficiency of over 75% for iodine using 10 cm2 PP/PDA membrane (18.87 m2 g-1) within 2 h at moderate temperatures (∼50 °C) and pH > 4, about 15 fold compared to the PP control membrane. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models (R2 > 0.99). This adsorbent can be recycled and reused at least six times with stable iodine adsorption. These findings were attributed to the homogenous monolayer adsorption of the iodide on the surface due to the presence of catechol and amine groups in the PP/PDA membrane. This study proposes an efficient adsorbent for iodine removal.

Abstract
Despite numerous attempts to fabricate the core-shell nanoparticles, novel, simple, and low-cost approaches are still required to produce these efficient nanosystems. In this study, we propose the synthesis of bimetallic core-shell nanoparticles of gold (AuNP) and silver (AgNP) nanostructures via a bioinspired polydopamine (PDOP) layer and their employment as a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platform. Herein, the PDOP layer was used as an interface between nanostructures as well as stabilizing and reducing agents for the deposition of silver ions onto the AuNPs. UV-vis absorption spectra and electron microscope images confirmed the deposition of the silver ions and the formation of core-shell nanoparticles. SERS activity tests indicated that both the PDOP thickness and silver deposition time are the dominant parameters that determine the SERS performances of the proposed core-shell system. In comparison to bare AuNPs, more than three times higher SERS signal intensity was obtained with an enhancement factor of 3.5 × 105.
