A magnetic nanocomposite of ordered mesoporous carbon (CMK-3) decorated with nickel nanoparticles was synthesized successfully by a simple chemistry method. Nickel nanoparticles were prepared and uniformly supported on ordered mesoporous carbon CMK-3 by reduction route with CMK-3 as a reducing agent at 673 K. The Ni/CMK-3 composite materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen sorption, and transmission electron microscopy. As-prepared nickel nanoparticles supported on CMK-3 were crystalline with a face-center-cubic phase and a size distribution ranging from 10 to 60 nm. The BET special surface area and pore volume of Ni/CMK-3 were as high as 797 m2 g−1 and 0.72 cm3 g−1, respectively. The formation mechanism of the nickel nanoparticles outside the surface of CMK-3 was preliminarily discussed. The hysteresis loops of the CMK-3 decorated with nickel nanoparticles were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and the results showed that the composite was ferromagnetism with the saturated magnetization of 15 emu/g, and the coercivity value of 214 Oe. Furthermore, the application of Ni/CMK-3 as magnetically separable adsorbent for vitamin B2 was primarily examined in this study.

A novel aptasensor based on a tetracycline (TET) aptamer immobilized by physical adsorption on an ordered mesoporous carbon–Fe3O4 (OMC-Fe3O4)-modified screen-printed electrode surface was successfully fabricated. OMC-Fe3O4 was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The modification procedure of the aptasensor was characterized by cyclic voltammetry. Interaction between the TET aptamer and target was determined by differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimal conditions, the proposed aptasensor exhibited good electrochemical sensitivity to TET in a concentration range of 5 nM to 10 μM, with a detection limit of 0.8 nM (S/N = 3). This aptasensor exhibited satisfactory specificity, reproducibility, and stability.

Ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) has been prepared by impregnating the pores of the silica template (SBA-15) with liquid petroleum gas (LPG) or sucrose. The desired support (OMC) was obtained after dissolution with NaOH. Platinum nanoparticles were dispersed on ordered mesoporous carbons using Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) method and Pt(acac)2 as metal source. The resulting ordered mesoporous carbon possess a large surface area with high microporosity, and a controlled pore size distribution, High-quality carbon replicas of SBA-15 show an X-ray diffraction peak at low angle, which indicates that the structural periodicity of the (111) planes has been maintained. Their pore volume and specific surface area are high and the pore volume is almost entirely microporous. The synthesized Pt/OMC was characterized by powder X-Ray diffraction, HR-TEM, HR-SEM, EDS, thermogravimetric analysis, and nitrogen adsorption. The performance of Pt catalyst supported OMC was evaluated by electrochemical studies, which shows almost similar activity to the commercial catalyst.

Low-density Fe-doped ordered mesoporous carbon (CMK-3)-silica (SBA-15) nanocomposites with different Fe contents have been prepared by a catalytic carbonization procedure followed by high-temperature calcination in N2. From field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and high resolution-transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) images, it can be concluded that CMK-3 particles are dispersed homogeneously into a silica matrix and form a novel, special and interesting composite nanostructure. The metal species ([Formula: see text]18[Formula: see text]nm) are dispersed on the surface of frameworks during the catalytic carbonization procedure and endow a magnetic property to the carbon–silica nanocomposites. The optimal reflection loss (RL) calculated from the measured permittivity and permeability is [Formula: see text]19[Formula: see text]dB at 17.2[Formula: see text]GHz for an absorber thickness of 2.00[Formula: see text]mm. Moreover, the electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption less than [Formula: see text]10[Formula: see text]dB is found to exceed 5.76[Formula: see text]GHz as the layer thickness is 2.37 mm. The permittivity dispersion behaviors have been explained based on the Cole–Cole model and the conductivity contribution model. A new simple empirical model was also supposed to find the fitted curves of the multi-resonance imaginary permeability spectra of the composites. The EM wave can hardly be reflected on the absorber surface because of a better match between dielectric loss and magnetic loss, which originates from the combination of dielectric carbon–silica and magnetic Fe species.
