Based on this thought, in this study, a multifunctional hydrogel nanocomposite (nanoclay@TiO2@PNVP) containing linear poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PNVP), nanoclay, and TiO2 nanoparticles was synthesized and used as an adsorbent and photocatalyst for the adsorption-based and photocatalytic degradation-based removal of organic and pharmaceutical pollutants such as methylene blue (MB) and sildenafil citrate (SLD). The modification of the hydrogel with TiO2 nanoparticles and nanoclay aimed to increase the adsorption capacity of the PNVP hydrogel as well as to gain photocatalytic properties for the effective removal of organic contaminants. This hybrid material, which can be cleaned in two different ways, can be reused and recycled at least 10 times. Characterization studies were carried out using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermogravimetry, and viscosimetry techniques. Optimization studies for the adsorption-based removal of organic contaminants were carried out on MB and SLD as model organic compounds. The optimum parameters for MB were found at pH 10 of the sample solution when 50 mg of the nanoclay@TiO2@PNVP hydrogel nanocomposite was used for 420 min of contact time. It was observed that 99% of the MB was photocatalytically degraded within 150 min at pH 10. Our material had multifunctional applicability properties, showing high adsorption and photocatalytic performances over 99% for at least 10 times of use. For the removal of organic and pharmaceutical contaminants from wastewater, the synthesized material can be used in two treatment processes separately or in combination in one step, providing an important advantage for its usability in environmental applications.Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 39Flexible Electrodes Composed of Flower-Like MoS2 and MXene for Supercapacitor Applications(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Hayat, Hilal Pecenek; Dokan, Fatma Kilic; Onses, M. Serdar; Yilmaz, Erkan; Duran, Ali; Sahmetlioglu, ErtugrulFlexible supercapacitors with high charge storage ability are needed for emerging applications in wearable electronics. Here, we introduce a novel flexible supercapacitor electrode by incorporating flower-like MoS2 into MXene via a hydrothermal technique. We mostly focused on the structural design for electrode configuration to enhance the charge storage mechanism. Three different electrodes composed of MoS2, MXene, and MoS2@MXene were fabricated via a versatile drop-casting and drying method. There are unique advantages of incorporating MoS2 with MXene such as the fast electron transfer, hydrophilicity of the interface, and structural stability. The MoS2@MXene // MXene flexible asymmetric supercapacitor device offered a high energy density of 1.21 W h /kg and a power density of 54.45 W /kg. Moreover, the asymmetric device exhibits nearly identical electrochemical behavior following 100 bending cycles at different angles. The high electrochemical activity of MoS2 and MXene and good interaction are ascribed to the superior electrochemical performance of the composite material. Furthermore, this research could guide the development of flexible, high-performance, and low-cost electrodes which will be useful in wearable electronics.
