Low tanδ and excellent temperature stability were due to the high resistance of the insulating layers with a very high potential barrier of ∼2.0 eV.A mixed water-organic solvent used for amidoximation increased the production cost of an amidoxime-based polymer sorbent and was not environmentally friendly as well. In this work, the amidoximation of an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene fiber co-grafted with acrylonitrile and methacrylic acid was carried out in aqueous solution without the use of an organic solvent. The effects of amidoximation parameters including NH2OH concentration, temperature, time, and various solvents on the uranium adsorption performances in both uranium-spiked brine and simulated seawater were investigated. Results indicated that the optimal amidoximation parameters were 5% (w/v) NH2OH, 80 °C, and 24 h. The uranium adsorption capacities of the sorbents amidoximated in aqueous solution were comparable with those of sorbents amidoximated in the various mixed water-organic solvents. Moreover, in comparison with both acidic (pH ∼3) and alkalic (pH ∼11) aqueous solution, the sorbent amidoximated in neutral (pH ∼7) NH2OH aqueous solution achieved higher uranium adsorption capacities in both uranium-spiked brine (112.4 mg/g) and simulated seawater (7.4 mg/g). Additionally, potassium hydroxide (KOH) treatment was a necessary process and indeed significantly increased the uranium adsorption capacity.Toxic effects of pharmacological drugs restrict their robust application against human diseases. Although used as a drug in the combinatorial therapy to treat malaria, the use of mefloquine is not highly recommended because of its adverse effects in humans. Mefloquine inhibits the binding of acyl-CoAs to acyl-CoA-binding proteins of Plasmodium falciparu
