Article Abstract
Bio-derived quaternary-ammonium-functionalized chitosan (HACC) was investigated as an electrolyte additive for Zn anode stabilization, for the first time to the best of our knowledge. Due to its special structure, including abundant hydrophilic functional groups and positive charge, HACC can inhibit the hydrogen evolution reaction, promote Zn transport, and induce the deposition of Zn(002). Consequently, the electrolyte with HACC exhibits improved electrochemical performance.

Arsenic contamination in water poses a significant global health risk, necessitating efficient and sustainable remediation strategies. Arsenic contamination affects groundwater in at least 106 countries, potentially exposing over 200 million people to elevated levels, primarily through contaminated drinking water. Among the most affected regions, Bangladesh remains a critical case study, where widespread reliance on shallow tubewells has resulted in one of the largest mass poisonings in history.

The sustainable flame retardancy of polymeric materials is a key focus for the direction of the next generation in the field of fire safety. Bio-derived flame retardants are gaining attention as environmentally friendly additives due to their low ecological impact and decreasing costs. These compounds can enhance char formation in polymeric materials by swelling upon heating, attributed to their functional groups.

Aiming at dealing with organic and inorganic pollutants dissolved in aquatic environments, we introduce self-assembled fluorescent nanocomposite hydrogel based on a binary polysaccharide network (xanthan gum/chitosan) embedding nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots not only as a hybrid solid optical sensor for detecting Cr(VI) ions but also to remove anionically charged contaminants Cr(VI) and methyl orange (MO) by acting as an adsorbent. This fluorescent nanocomposite achieved a detection limit of 0.29 μM when used to detect Cr(VI) and demonstrated a fluorescence quantum yield of 59.

In recent years, stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems based on pH, particularly those developed using bio-derived nanocomposite systems, have gained significant attention. In this work, a novel magnetic carrier was designed based on biopolymeric chitosan and metal-organic framework (MOF) for pH-controlling the release of anticancer drugs. To end this, an in-situ green method was performed to form Cu-based MOF in the presence of a magnetic polysaccharide synthesized by precipitation method toward the construction of CS/FeO/Cu-MOF nanocomposite.
