Melamine (MA) and polyurethane (PU) foams, including both commercial sponges for daily
use as well as newly synthesized foams are known for their high sorption ability of both polar …

Frequent crude oil spills and illegal discharges of industrial organic pollutants cause serious
damage to the ecological environment and considerable loss of valuable resources …

Efficient and safe recovery of high-viscosity marine crude oil spills is still a worldwide
challenge. High-viscosity crude oil is difficult to be removed by traditional adsorbent …

In the present study, fabrications of two eco-friendly superhydrophobic/superoleophilic
recyclable foamy-based adsorbents for oil/water mixture separation were developed …

Oil spillage accidents have caused serious environmental issues, and resulted in oil-
cleaning materials receiving widespread attention. In this study, lignin, a crucial recalcitrant …

Although polydopamine (PDA)-related modification is widely studied in the fabrication of
superhydrophobic sponges, the high cost of dopamine limits its widespread application. To …

Abstract Herein, the Co 2+-doped ZnO nanoarrays with high photocatalytic activity were
grown on the stainless steel wire mesh (Co 2+-ZnO@ SSM) by the hydrothermal method …

Oily wastewater discharged from the petrochemical industry and people's daily life has
caused severe eco-environmental issues. Thus, developing efficient and durable oil/water …

Here, a novel coating formulation was developed using WS 2, halloysite nanotube (HNT),
octyltriethoxysilane (OTES), tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to …

Leakage accidents occurring during oil production and transportation are currently one of
the most serious environmental problems worldwide. Developing efficient and …
