This review summarizes recent global research on the development of antibacterial aerogels such as silica, polymeric, and carbon-based, which are used either as standalone agents or as supports for antibacterial compounds. Compared to conventional antibacterial materials such as hydrogels or surface coatings, aerogel-based systems provide improved antibacterial performance through high loading capacity, sustained release, and customizable surface chemistry.

In this method, macro-gel particles formed from sodium alginate and calcium chloride are incorporated into a PDMS solution as water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions, serving as pore templates. The porous structure can be tuned by adjusting parameters such as the concentration of sodium alginate aqueous solution, choice of diluting solvents for PDMS, surfactant type, and the emulsion method.

The best part of the present work is that it is the first time to introduce a technique for cyanamide sensing. No other literature works are yet reported for the electrochemical sensing of cyanamide molecule; it is confirmed from the literature reports. It consists of preparation of graphene oxide (GO) from graphite powder by using modified Hummer’s method. Functionalized GO-based molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) is used for the detection of cyanamide. First GO functionalization is done with para-aminophenol (PAP) by solvent sonication giving GO-PAP; then, it undergoes surface modification with allyl bromide in the presence of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to form vinylated GO (GO–O–CH<sub>2</sub>–CH=CH<sub>2</sub>). The modified GO undergoes polymerization with methacrylic acid (MAA) as the monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the cross-linker, azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator and cyanamide as the template molecule. The cyanamide is completely removed by using N, N dimethylformamide (DMF), and a non-imprinted polymer (NIP) is also prepared along with MIP. Different materials obtained in each stage of preparation were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The prepared GO-MIP is used as an active material for cyanamide sensing where the sensor exhibits a lower limit detection of 0.1 nM with maximum sensing performance at pH 8.0 and a long-term stability for more than six months. The interference of cyanamide with thiourea (TU), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (DPA) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (TPA) was also studied.

Chitosan was extracted from shrimp skeletons, with molecular weight of 560 kDa determined by viscometry and deacetylation degree of 85% determined by FTIR. Membranes were crosslinked with citric acid at different weight fractions and characterized using techniques such as FTIR, SEM, TGA and DSC. The FTIR demonstrated the link formation because of the crosslinking reaction. The vibration at 1620 cm<sup>−1</sup> associated with the primary amines (NH<sub>2</sub>) in chitosan loses its intensity in membrane crosslinked samples indicating the crosslink of the polymer. The thermal stability of the membranes increases by crosslinking reaction, as thermal characterizations by TGA reveal. Moreover, the energy absorption quantified by DSC increased as citric acid concentration increases, evidencing the formation of crosslinked points. In this context, the swelling factor <span>(left( {S_{f} } right))</span> in water varies inversely to citric acid weight fraction, and <span>(S_{f})</span> is between 1.41 and 1.17, which can be considered as a low ratio. Membranes were evaluated in the liquid phase permeation of NaCl, used as a probe molecule where permeability decreases as the inlet pressure increases. Then, membranes were evaluated in the aqueous diclofenac permeation, where increasing the DCF concentration, the permeability decreases. Rejection factor evaluated for both NaCl and DCF permeation was higher to 90% demonstrating that membranes can separate diclofenac from water. SEM images exhibit diclofenac crystals retained in the upper side of the membrane. Characterizations carried out in samples after permeation tests show that diclofenac interacts with the membrane by slightly shifting of the characteristic vibrations of functional groups associated with DCF in FTIR, by an endothermic broad absorption from 165 to 180 °C in DSC and degradation temperature of the sample in TGA. Crosslinked membranes can retain diclofenac, so the permeated water has a high purity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":737,"journal":{"name":"Polymer Bulletin","volume":"82 16","pages":"10879 - 10902"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00289-025-05946-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145284290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
