A method for using a natural attapulgite is disclosed. The method includes using the natural attapulgite as a natural nano mineral enzyme. The results of the examples show that the natural attapulgite has peroxidase-like activity, catalase-like activity or superoxide dismutase-like activity, and good biocompatibility. Compared with protease, the natural attapulgite has the advantages such as large reserves, easy to obtain, low cost, high temperature resistance and wide range of pH value. Compared with a developed artificial nano enzymes, the natural attapulgite further has the advantages such as multi-function, natural non-toxic (from nature, no heavy metals), good biocompatibility, easy to obtain, no complex processing, and huge surface area which provides a place for cell growth and proliferation.

Use of natural attapulgite as natural nano mineral enzyme

The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy conversion devices, which provides an rGO-PEI/PVDF pyroelectric thin film, and the method for preparing the film, as well as a self-energized bracelet produced based on such film, which utilizes the reduced graphite oxide after modified by polyethyleneimine (PEI) (rGO-PEI) as photothermal conversion material, and the silver-plated polarized polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film as pyroelectric conversion material. The rGO-PEI photothermal material is fixed to the surface of the PVDF through a transparent film, and prepare the self-energized bracelet based on it. The obtained bracelet has an output power of up to 21.3 mW/m2, and does not require additional mechanical devices to control the temperature during operation, wherein, the thermoelectric conversion, rectification, storage and application are realized through temperature fluctuation produced by absorbing sunlight during doing outdoor sports, utilizing temperature difference of air flow, and sweeping gesture, etc.
