CaF2/AG25 (CFA) hybrid sorbent formed by hybrid reaction with activated calcium fluoride of low cost and anionic dye wastewater-Acid Green 25 (AG25) was used for the treatment of cationic dye wastewater. The adsorption of two cationic dyes methyl violet (MV) and Neutral Red (NR) from aqueous solutions was examined using a batch sorption technique. The effects of time, pH, ionic strength and temperature on the adsorption were also examined. It exhibited a faster adsorption to cationic dyes and hardly affected in pH over 3.5, ionic strength low 0.04 mol/L and temperature between 20 oC and 60 oC. The adsorption behavior of the NR and MV on CFA is in good agreement with the Langmiur isotherms model with the correlation coefficients of R 0.9948 for NR and 0.9992 for MV and the maximum adsorption capacity of NR (39.22 mg/g) and MV (48.78 mg/g). Finally, this sorbent was used in treatment of two practical cationic dye wastewaters with satisfactory results.

Towards the goal of developing scalable, economical and effective antimicrobial textiles to reduce infection transmission, here we prepared color-variable photodynamic materials comprised of photosensitizer (PS)-loaded wool/acrylic (W/A) blends. Wool fibers in the W/A blended fabrics were loaded with the photosensitizer rose bengal (RB), and the acrylic fibers were dyed with a variety of traditional cationic dyes (cationic yellow, cationic blue and cationic red) to broaden their color range. Investigations on the colorimetric and photodynamic properties of a series of these materials were implemented through CIELab evaluation, as well as photooxidation and antibacterial studies. Generally, the photodynamic efficacy of these dual-dyed fabrics was impacted by both the choice, and how much of the traditional cationic dye was employed in the dyeing of the W/A fabrics. When compared with the PS-only singly-dyed material, RB-W/A, that showed a 99.97% (3.5 log units; p = 0.02) reduction of Staphylococcus aureus under visible light illumination (λ ≥ 420 nm, 60 min), the addition of cationic dyes led to a slight decrease in the photoinactivation ability of the dual-dyed fabrics, but was still able to achieve a 99.3% inactivation of S. aureus. Overall, our findings demonstrate the feasibility and potential applications of low cost and color variable RB-loaded W/A blended fabrics as effective self-disinfecting textiles against pathogen transmission.
