Chitosan functionalized Halloysite Nanotubes as a receptive surface for laccase and copper to perform degradation of chlorpyrifos in aqueous environment

Modified halloysite nanotubes decorated with Ceria for synergistic corrosion inhibition of Polyolefin based smart composite coatings

“…A new material known as halloysite nanotube (Hal) has been on the rise in research and development owing to its impressive characteristics, including nanoscale lumens, low surface (hydr)oxides group density, and low cost. These properties and their nano size allow Hal to be utilized in numerous applications in various (Du et al, 2010;Kamble et al, 2012;Yuan et al, 2015;Pandey et al, 2017Pandey et al, , 2022bPandey et al, 2022a;Rawtani et al, 2017;Tharmavaram et al, 2018Tharmavaram et al, , 2021 Hal has also shown promising results when used for smart corrosion coatings where the inhibitors are embedded into these containers and released at a higher and more controlled rate than regular direct coatings, preventing the rapid spread of corrosion in corrosive environments (Zahidah et al, 2017).…”

Manipulation of the halloysite clay nanotube lumen for environmental remediation: a review

“…[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] These reviews mainly focus on the excellent support function of the outer wall of clay nanotubes, which is related to its elongated nanorod (NR)-like shape. For example, various metallic NPs such as Cu, ZnO, α-Ni(OH) 2 , Co 3 O 4 and CeO 2 -WO 3 , [31][32][33][34][35][36] or functional organic molecules such as cucurbiturils, chitosan, polyaniline, hydrothermal carbon, organosilane and dopamine, [37][38][39][40][41][42] were supported on the outer wall of clay nanotubes to prepare advanced hybrid nanomaterials, and then used as high-…”

Immobilization of laccase on chitosan functionalized halloysite nanotubes for degradation of Bisphenol A in aqueous solution: degradation mechanism and mineralization pathway

“…The results showed that stability of lac@A-MB was compared with other literatures [ 27 , 28 , 29 ], which provided a basis for the practical application of different methods for immobilizing laccase. Among the reported immobilization methods, the unique hollow tubular structure, negatively charged surface, high specific surface area, and good biocompatibility of chitosan functionalized halloysite nanotubes (CS-HNTs) make them promising laccase immobilization carriers [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ]. However, these methods focus too much on the covalent binding of laccase and ignore the excellent adsorption properties of laccase on the inner and outer surfaces of the material.…”
