A magnetic photocatalyst, CdS/CoFe ₂ O ₄ /rGO, has been successfully prepared via a simple hydrothermal method. The photocatalytic activity of the as-obtained composite photocatalyst was evaluated using the degradation of tetracycline.

The development of molecularly imprinted membranes (MIMs) has promoted applications of membrane-based separation technology, which has shown considerable advantages in water treatment, chemical separation and drug purification. Herein, imitated core–shell PEI@SiO₂-based enoxacin-imprinted nanocomposite membranes (SPEIMs) were developed by mixing polyethylenimene-modified silica nanoparticles with polyvinylidene fluoride powder under freezing operation. As a typical and hazardous water pollutant, enoxacin was selected as the template molecule. Morphology and chemical characterizations were explored for an insightful analysis of the obtained membranes. Based on the organic–inorganic hybrid strategy, the as-prepared SPEIMs exhibited superior selectivity towards the target (enoxacin). Satisfactory adsorption performance (55.94 mg g⁻¹), permeability (3.22 for norfloxacin/enoxacin and 7.07 for ciprofloxacin/enoxacin) and regeneration performance (90.31%) were achieved onto SPEIMs. The products and methods obtained in this work would potentially enrich the applications of MIMs in pollution control and biochemical separation.

CoCrFeNiZr_0.3 is a two-phase coexisting (Laves + FCC) high-entropy alloy with high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and thermal stability. However, the inhomogeneous distribution of the eutectic structure among the dendrites has a detrimental effect on the coordinated deformation of the material. The current study shows that the grain size, weave structure, and second phase distribution of high-entropy alloys can be significantly changed by thermal deformation, which affects the mechanical and physical properties, as well as the chemical stability of the alloys. In this study, the thermal deformation behavior of CoCrFeNiZr_0.3 biphasic hypoeutectic high-entropy alloy was investigated using a Gleeble-3500 thermal simulation tester under the conditions of deformation temperature of 950–1100 °C and deformation rate of 0.001–1 s⁻¹. The results show that CoCrFeNiZr_0.3 high-entropy alloy has higher deformation activation energy, which means its deformation resistance is larger. In addition, the microstructure with finer grain size and uniform distribution of Laves phase can be obtained by EBSD analysis after compression at 1000 °C and 0.01 s⁻¹.
