Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a nanoparticle, specifically to a peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticle and its preparation and application. Background Technology
[0002] Natural enzymes possess highly efficient catalytic activity and substrate specificity, making them widely used in industrial production. However, natural enzymes are subject to harsh environmental conditions and are prone to denaturation, resulting in low stability. Artificial enzymes, on the other hand, possess the catalytic activity of natural enzymes while avoiding their stringent environmental requirements. Compared to natural enzymes, they are easier to prepare, require less stringent storage conditions, and have lower production costs. Nanoparticles, due to their large specific surface area, high stability, and tunable size, can provide more catalytically active sites, making them an excellent material for artificial enzymes.
[0003] In recent years, safety issues arising from metal corrosion failure have attracted widespread attention. However, damage to the protective coating on metal parts is often difficult to detect. The aforementioned damage process proceeds from surface damage and microcrack formation to complete metal exposure. Therefore, timely and effective detection of the integrity and depth of damage to the protective coating of metal parts is crucial for preventing metal corrosion failure. However, current research on the extent of damage to the protective coating of metal parts is limited. While some literature has successfully monitored the width of damage to the protective coating, it cannot reflect the depth of damage in real time, leading to corrosion risks due to environmental exposure of the metal parts. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticle, its preparation, and its application, solving the problem that existing technologies cannot reflect the damage depth of the protective layer in real time, leading to the risk of corrosion of metal parts due to environmental exposure. The CDs@Fe3O4 peroxidase can catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to generate hydroxyl radicals that induce color change in the chromogenic substrate. Subsequently, by adding a reducing agent to decolorize the substrate, Fe... 3+ A linear response to the chromogenic substrate enables monitoring of iron ion concentration.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides a method for preparing peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles, the method comprising:
[0006] (1) A nitrogen-doped carbon dot solution was prepared by reacting a carbon source and a nitrogen source using a hydrothermal method.
[0007] (2) The iron source was added to the nitrogen-doped carbon point solution and stirred. After reaction at 150-300℃, the peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles were obtained by separation, washing and drying.
[0008] Preferably, in step (1), the carbon source is any one or more of glucose, citric acid, sodium alginate, cellulose, chitosan, dextran and lignin, and the nitrogen source is any one or more of ethylenediamine, ammonia, aniline, amino acids and L-arginine.
[0009] More preferably, the carbon source is glucose and the nitrogen source is L-arginine. Glucose has many hydroxyl groups, and L-arginine is more easily used for nitrogen atom doping. Other carbon and nitrogen sources are not easy to use for heteroatom doping, and the prepared material has low catalytic performance and cannot effectively catalyze hydrogen peroxide.
[0010] Preferably, in step (1), the mass of the carbon source is 10% to 90% of the mass of the nitrogen source; the concentrations of the carbon source and the nitrogen source are greater than 0 and less than 100%.
[0011] Preferably, in step (1), the hydrothermal reaction temperature is 150-250°C and the hydrothermal reaction time is 6-24 hours.
[0012] Preferably, in step (2), the iron source is any one or more of ferric chloride, ferrous chloride, ferric sulfate, ferrous sulfate, iron(II,III) oxide, ferric bromide and ferric carbonate.
[0013] Preferably, in step (2), the mass of carbon dots in the nitrogen-doped carbon dot solution is 0 to 100% of the mass of the iron source, and is not 0; the pH value is greater than 0 and less than 14; and the reaction time at 150 to 300°C is 6 to 24 hours.
[0014] This invention provides peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles prepared by the method described above.
[0015] This invention provides an application of the peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles as described above in detecting the depth of damage to the protective layer of metal parts.
[0016] Preferably, the application involves inducing a color change in the chromogenic substrate through the peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and Fe... 3+ The linear response of the colorimetric substrate was used to detect the depth of damage to the protective layer of the metal parts.
[0017] More preferably, the chromogenic substrate is tetramethylbenzidine, anthocyanin, or a peroxidase fluorescent probe; the material of the metal protective layer includes a base membrane and any one or two of the following (a) and / or (b):
[0018] (a) A coating on at least one side surface of a base film;
[0019] (b) Text and / or patterns located on the surface of the material;
[0020] The peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles are added to at least one of the structures in the base film, coating, text, and / or pattern.
[0021] By adding peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles to coatings, text, and / or patterns, the surface of the coating will display corresponding text or patterns when the coating is damaged, providing a relevant color response to the coating damage. The application of this invention lies not only in detecting whether a coating is damaged, but also in detecting the degree of coating damage and whether metal parts have been damaged.
[0022] The present invention relates to a peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticle, its preparation and application, which solves the problem that existing technologies cannot reflect the damage depth of the protective layer in real time, leading to the risk of corrosion of metal parts due to environmental exposure. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. The CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles of this invention exhibit excellent catalytic activity. This is because Fe3O4 readily aggregates in water, while nitrogen-doped CDs create sufficient catalytic active sites on the Fe3O4 surface. The surface contains numerous C=N and C=O functional groups, which enhance the hydrophilicity of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles and strengthen electron transfer in the metal oxide. Compared to existing materials, the CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles of this invention have additional nitrogen elements on their surface, making electron transfer easier during catalysis, thereby significantly improving the catalytic activity of the material.
[0024] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this invention is the first to utilize the peroxidase-like properties of CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles, combined with Fe 3+ Linear colorimetric characteristics (CDs@Fe3O4 catalyzes the production of reactive oxygen species from hydrogen peroxide, thereby oxidizing the chromogenic substrate and causing the solution to develop color. Adding a reducing agent can block the oxidation of the chromogenic substrate or cause the oxidized substrate to fade. Meanwhile, Fe...) 3+ This invention utilizes a protective coating (primarily composed of epoxy resin and CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles) to detect the depth of damage to metal parts. This method is not only intuitive but also simple and rapid, requiring no large instruments or equipment, and can quickly and sensitively reflect the degree of damage to the protective coating of metal parts. (During monitoring, when the protective coating is intact, CDs@Fe3O4 peroxidase is not exposed, thus preventing color change of the chromogenic substrate. After slight damage, CDs@Fe3O4 peroxidase is exposed, causing the chromogenic substrate to develop color. Finally, when the protective coating is completely damaged, leading to metal exposure, the chromogenic substrate can be induced to develop color in the same way.)
[0025] 3. This invention proposes a convenient colorimetric method for detecting coating damage and metal corrosion using a Python program. This method utilizes color difference as an indicator, providing a simple and effective approach to assess the degree of coating damage and metal corrosion. Attached Figure Description

[0045] A method for preparing peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles, the method comprising:
[0046] (1) Hydrothermal method: using glucose (C6H) 12 O6) is the carbon source, and L-arginine (C6H) is used as the carbon source. 14 Using N4O2 as the nitrogen source, 1g of glucose, 1g of L-arginine and deionized water were mixed and stirred for ten minutes. The solution was then transferred to a 100mL reaction vessel and heated at 160℃ for 10 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the carbon dot solution was filtered through a 0.22μm microporous membrane. The filtrate was collected to obtain the CDs solution, which was stored at 2–8℃.
[0047] (2) Solvent heat: 1g of FeCl3·6H2O and 4g of NaAC were added to 50mL of CDs solution and stirred for 15-20min to mix them thoroughly. The solution was then transferred to a 100mL reactor and heated at 200℃ for 10h. After cooling to room temperature, the solid nanomaterials in the solution were separated using a permanent magnet (1-1.5T). The nanomaterials were washed 6 times with a mixture of deionized water and anhydrous ethanol and dried at 50℃ in a drying oven to obtain the nanomaterials, which were denoted as CDs@Fe3O4(0.5).
[0048] If the mass of FeCl3·6H2O is less than 0.5g, the catalytic activity of the prepared nanoparticles is comparable to that of CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticles prepared by adding 0.5g of FeCl3·6H2O. Therefore, a suitable amount of 0.5g of FeCl3·6H2O should be selected for preparation.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] The preparation method of a peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticle is basically the same as that in Example 1, except that:
[0051] In step (2), the mass of FeCl3·6H2O is adjusted from 0.5g to 0.8g;
[0052] Following the same remaining operations as in Example 1, the nanomaterial was obtained, denoted as CDs@Fe3O4(0.8).
[0053] Example 3
[0054] The preparation method of a peroxidase-like CDs@Fe3O4 nanoparticle is basically the same as that in Example 1, except that:
[0055] In step (2), the mass of FeCl3·6H2O is adjusted from 0.5g to 1.1g;
[0056] Following the same remaining operations as in Example 1, the nanomaterial was obtained, denoted as CDs@Fe3O4 (1.1).
[0057] Comparative Example 1
[0058] The preparation method of nanoparticles is basically the same as that in Example 1, except that:
[0059] Step (1) is missing;

The vertical axis represents absorbance, and the horizontal axis represents the blank control group (BLANK), methanol (MA), and isopropanol (IPA). Figure 10 It can be seen that, compared with other groups, the absorbance of the group with the addition of IPA decreased significantly, indicating that CDs@Fe3O4 catalyzes the generation of ·OH from hydrogen peroxide, thereby oxidizing TMB.

Figure 13 As shown in A, the absorbance of the solution decreased significantly after the addition of 8-HQ, while the addition of Fe... 3+ The absorbance of the solution will recover somewhat afterward. Figure 13As the concentration of 8-HQ increases, the absorbance of the solution decreases in reaction B.
[0074] 4. Fe at different concentrations 3+ or metal ions
[0075] In this invention, 3 mL of Na-AC (pH = 3.6), 50 μL of TMB (10 mM), 50 μL of H2O2 (concentration 30%), and 50 μL of CDs@Fe3O4 (0.5) prepared in Example 1 were mixed and kept at 45 °C for 10 min. Then, 50 μL of 8-HQ (40 mM) was added and reacted for 5 min. Finally, 100 μL of Fe was added. 3+ The absorbance was measured using different concentrations or 100 μL of different metal ions (each metal ion concentration was 500 μM).
[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, the material obtained in Example 1 of this invention has a positive effect on Fe. 3+ The selectivity plot, where A is the selectivity of Fe 3+ The absorbance graphs at different concentrations are shown, with the horizontal axis representing iron ion concentration and the vertical axis representing absorbance; B represents the effect of different ions on Fe. 3+ The selectivity plot shows the concentration of various ions on the x-axis and the absorbance on the y-axis.

[0102] Experimental Example 5: Protective Layer for Metal Parts
[0103] The material obtained in Example 1 of this invention was used as a protective layer for metal parts to monitor the degree and depth of damage. Specifically, epoxy resin and curing agent were mixed at a weight ratio of 5:4. Hybrid nanoparticles CDs@Fe3O4(0.5) obtained in Example 1 were added to the mixture at different weight percentages.

[0105] like Figure 15 As shown, Example 1 of the present invention presents magnified micrographs and color intensity diagrams of scratches of different depths generated in an epoxy coating containing 5% CDs@Fe3O4 (0.5). A represents deep scratches; B represents shallow scratches; and C represents the color intensity of the scratches. The horizontal axis, from left to right, represents the uncorroded coating, shallow scratches, 8-HQ treatment, and deep scratches, while the vertical axis represents color intensity. Figure 15 As can be seen from B, the shallow scratches exhibit a noticeable color change, indicating coating damage. Subsequently, upon introduction of 8-HQ, the TMB system's hue changed from blue to colorless. Without any scratch propagation, the signal remained inactive. However, by Figure 15 As shown in A, as the scratches deepen, the steel plate is exposed to the surrounding environment, and corrosion occurs due to the acidity of the TMB system. Therefore, the released Fe... 3+ This caused TMB's color to change from colorless to blue again. Figure 15 As can be seen from C, the presence of more CDs@Fe3O4(0.5) and Fe in the scratch indicates that... 3+ This results in the color intensity of the deep scratches on the exposed steel plate being higher than that of the shallow scratches.
[0106] like Figure 16As shown, in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, magnified microscope images and color RGB diagrams of scratches on epoxy coatings on corroded steel sheets are presented, where A is a magnified microscope image of the corroded sheet / deep scratches; B is a color RGB diagram of scratches on uncorroded and corroded sheets. Figure 16 As shown in A, compared to the uncorroded steel plate, its brightness is significantly darker. From... Figure 16 As shown in B, the RGB color matching diagram of scratches on the uncorroded and corroded boards shows that the blue intensity of the corroded board is significantly higher than that of the uncorroded board.
[0107] like Figure 17 As shown, this is a schematic diagram illustrating the monitoring of coating damage and potential metal corrosion via a smartphone in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 17 As can be seen, RGB colors are analyzed from digital images of the protective coating using a Python program. To eliminate the influence of observation time, photos should be taken at equal intervals, which can accurately estimate the color intensity at fixed times using a smartphone's built-in black box program. After calculating the color difference between the color swatch and the standard color chart, the degree of coating damage and potential underlying metal corrosion can be provided.
[0108] like Figure 18 As shown in the diagram, Embodiment 1 of the present invention is used for monitoring the degree of damage to the protective layer of metal parts, where A is a monitoring process diagram; B is a schematic diagram of the material surface. Figure 18 It is known that, firstly, CDs@Fe3O4(0.5) nanozymes are encapsulated within a polymer protective shell on a steel plate. When the coating is mechanically damaged, the exposed CDs@Fe3O4(0.5) nanozymes readily react with H2O2 to generate ·OH, resulting in the oxidation of TMB (colorless form) to oxTMB (colored form). In this way, an automatic display is made based on the color change of TMB. Furthermore, a secondary reaction defined between the color indicator system and 8-HQ can be introduced into the surrounding medium, reversibly deactivating the colored oxTMB to colorless TMB. This indicates that the CDs@Fe3O4(0.5) nanozymes can not only activate the signal and report the appearance of damage, but also deactivate the signal if the damage is not progressing or is healing. However, if the coating damage worsens, the TMB indicator system again displays a color change associated with metal corrosion at the damage point. The observable color shift of the TMB can accurately indicate coating damage and provide early warning of potential under-corrosion.
