In this work, cellulose aerogel(CA) with highly enhanced thermal conductivity(TC) in vertical planes was successfully obtained by constructing a vertically aligned silicon carbide nanowires(SiC NWs)/boron nitride(BN) network via the ice template-assisted strategy. The unique network structure of SiC NWs connected to BN ensures that the TC of the composite in the vertical direction reaches 2.21 W m^(-1) K^(-1) at a low hybrid filler loading of 16.69 wt%, which was increased by 890% compared to pure epoxy(EP). In addition, relying on unique porous network structure of CA, EP-based composite also showed higher TC than other comparative samples in the horizontal direction. Meanwhile, the composite exhibits good electrically insulating with a volume electrical resistivity about 2.35 × 10^(11) Ω cm and displays excellent electromagnetic wave absorption performance with a minimum reflection loss of-21.5 dB and a wide effective absorption bandwidth(<-10 dB) from 8.8 to 11.6 GHz. Therefore, this work provides a new strategy for manufacturing polymer-based composites with excellent multifunctional performances in microelectronic packaging applications.展开更多

The nanocomposite-type adsorbent was synthesized based on the electrostatically driven self-assembly between positively charged Mg-Al LDH single sheet and negatively charged GO monolayer. The characteristics of this novel adsorbent were investigated using XRD, FE-SEM, HRTEM, FT-IR, BET and TGA. The results showed that both the CO2 adsorption capacity and the multicycle stability of LDH were increased with the addition of GO owing to the enhanced particle dispersion and stabilization. In particular, the absolute CO2 capture capacity of LDH was increased by more than twice by adding 6.54 wt% GO as support. GO appeared to be especially effective for supporting LDH sheets. Moreover, the CO2 capture capacity of the adsorbent could be further increased by doping with 15 wt%K2CO3. This work demonstrated a new approach for the preparation of LDH-based hybrid-type adsorbents for CO2 capture.展开更多

文摘Lightweight microcellular polyurethane(TPU)/carbon nanotubes(CNTs)/nickel-coated CNTs(Ni@CNTs)/polymerizable ionic liquid copolymer(PIL)composite foams are prepared by non-solvent induced phase separation(NIPS).CNTs and Ni@CNTs modified by PIL provide more heterogeneous nucleation sites and inhibit the aggregation and combination of microcellular structure.Compared with TPU/CNTs,the TPU/CNTs/PIL and TPU/CNTs/Ni@CNTs/PIL composite foams with smaller microcellular structures have a high electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness(EMI SE).The evaporate time regulates the microcellular structure,improves the conductive network of composite foams and reduces the microcellular size,which strengthens the multiple reflections of electromagnetic wave.The TPU/10CNTs/10Ni@CNTs/PIL foam exhibits slightly higher SE values(69.9 dB)compared with TPU/20CNTs/PIL foam(53.3 dB).The highest specific EMI SE of TPU/20CNTs/PIL and TPU/10CNTs/10Ni@CNTs/PIL reaches up to 187.2 and 211.5 dB/(g cm^(−3)),respectively.The polarization losses caused by interfacial polarization between TPU substrates and conductive fillers,conduction loss caused by conductive network of fillers and magnetic loss caused by Ni@CNT synergistically attenuate the microwave energy.

文摘Ultra-thin flexible films have attracted wide attention because of their excellent ductility and potential versatility.In particular,the energy-harvesting films(EHFs)have become a research hotspot because of the indispensability of power source in various devices.However,the design and fabrication of such films that can capture or transform di erent types of energy from environments for multiple usages remains a challenge.Herein,the multifunctional flexible EHFs with e ective electro-/photo-thermal abilities are proposed by successive spraying Ag microparticles and MXene suspension between on waterborne polyurethane films,supplemented by a hot-pressing.The optimal coherent film exhibits a high electrical conductivity(1.17×10^(4)S m^(-1)),excellent Joule heating performance(121.3℃)at 2 V,and outstanding photo-thermal performance(66.2℃ within 70 s under 100 mW cm^(-1)).In addition,the EHFs-based single-electrode triboelectric nanogenerators(TENG)give short-circuit transferred charge of 38.9 nC,open circuit voltage of 114.7 V,and short circuit current of 0.82μA.More interestingly,the output voltage of TENG can be further increased via constructing the double triboelectrification layers.The comprehensive ability for harvesting various energies of the EHFs promises their potential to satisfy the corresponding requirements.

文摘The Ni-Nb_(2)O_(5)nanocatalysts have been prepared by the solgel method,and the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation(HDO)performance of anisole as model compound is studied.The results show that Nb exists as amorphous Nb_(2)O_(5)species,which can promote Ni dispersion.The addition of Nb_(2)O_(5)increases the acidity of the catalyst.However,when the content of niobium is high,there is an inactive Nb-Ni-O mixed phase.The size and morphology of Ni grains in catalysts are different due to the difference of Nb/Ni molar ratio.The Ni_(0.9)Nb_(0.1)sample has the largest surface area of 170.8 m^(2)·g^(-1)among the catalysts prepared in different Nb/Ni molar ratios,which is mainly composed of spherical nanoparticles and crack pores.The HDO of anisole follows the reaction route of the hydrogenation HYD route.The Ni_(0.9)Nb_(0.1)catalyst displayed a higher HDO performance for anisole than Ni catalyst.The selectivity to cyclohexane over the Ni_(0.9)Nb_(0.1)sample is about 10 times that of Ni catalyst at 220℃and 3 MPa H_(2).The selectivity of cyclohexane is increased with the increase of reaction temperature.The anisole is almost completely transformed into cyclohexane at 240℃,3 MPa H_(2)and 4 h.

文摘In this paper,a low-cost and environmental-friendly leaching agent citric acid(C_(6)H_(8)O_(7))was used to treat the sediment of Dianchi Lake(SDL)to synthesize lithium silicate(Li_(4)SiO_(4))based CO_(2)sorbent.The results were compared with that treated with strong acid.Moreover,the effects of preparation conditions,sorption conditions and desorption conditions on the CO_(2)sorption performance of prepared Li_(4)SiO_(4)were systematically studied.Under optimal conditions,the Li_(4)SiO_(4)sorbent was successfully synthesized and its CO_(2)sorption capacity reached 31.37%(mass),which is much higher than that synthesized from SDL treated with strong acid.It is speculated that the presence of some elements after C_(6)H_(8)O_(7)treatment may promote the sorption of synthetic Li_(4)SiO_(4)to CO_(2).In addition,after doping with K_(2)CO_(3),the CO_(2)uptake increases from the original 12.02%and 22.12%to 23.96%and 32.41%(mass)under the 20%and 50%CO_(2)partial pressure,respectively.More importantly,after doping K_(2)CO_(3),the synthesized Li_(4)SiO_(4)has a high cyclic stability under the low CO_(2)partial pressure.

文摘Terephthalic acid reformed Al/Zn metal organic nanoflake was prepared and functionalized with trie-thylamine(T-AlZn).Without adding terephthalic acid,there was no product of metal organic nanoflake.T-AlZn has a remarkable performance in removing trace lead(Ⅱ)ions(Pb^(2+)).The adsorption equipoise with the removal rate≥97%was reached within 35 min.The removal rates of T-AlZn for Pb^(2+)declined by only 16.73%after four regenerations.The adsorption of T-AlZn for Pb^(2+)follows the Langmuir isotherms model and pseudo-second-order dynamics model.The utmost adsorption competence was calculated as 215.27 mg g^(-1).The T-AlZn adsorbent exhibits a bright prospect in the adsorption for Pb^(2+)and is a considerable candidate in the disposal of industrial sewage.

文摘The search for wearable electronics has been attracted great efforts,there is an ever-growing demand for all-solid-state flexible energy storage devices.However,it is a challenge to obtain both positive and negative electrodes with excellent mechanical strength and match positive and negative charges to achieve high energy densities and operate voltages to satisfy practical application requirements.Here,flexible MXene(Ti_(3)C_(2)Tx)/cellulose nanofiber(CNF)composite film negative electrodes(MCNF)were fabricated with a vacuum filtration method,as well as positive electrodes(CP)by combining polyaniline(PANI)with carbon cloth(CC)using an in-situ polymerization method.Both positive and negative free-standing electrodes exhibited excellent electrochemical behavior and bendable/foldable flexibility.As a result,the all-pseudocapacitance asymmetric device of MCNF//CP assembled with charge-matched between anode and cathode achieves an extended voltage window of 1.5 V,high energy density of 30.6 Wh·kg^(−1)(1211 W·kg^(−1)),86%capacitance retention after 5000 cycles,the device maintains excellent bendability,simultaneously.This work will pave the way for the development of all-pseudocapacitive asymmetric supercapacitors(ASC)with simultaneously preeminent mechanical properties,high energy density,wide operating voltage window.

文摘Piezoresistive composite elastomers have shown great potentials for wearable and flexible electronic applications due to their high sensitivity,excellent frequency response,and easy signal detection.A composition membrane sensor with an interlocked structure has been developed and demonstrated outstanding pressure sensitivity,fast response time,and low temperature drift features.Compared with a flexible MXene-based flat sensor(Ti_(3)C_(2)),the interlocked sensor exhibits a significantly improved pressure sensitivity of two magnitudes higher(21.04 kPa^(-1)),a fast reaction speed of 31 ms,and an excellent cycle life of 5000 test runs.The viability of sensor in responding to various external stimuli with high deformation capacity has been confirmed by calculating the force distribution of a polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)film model with a microlens structure using the solid mechanics module in COMSOL.Unlike conventional process,we utilized three-dimensional(3D)laser-direct writing lithography equipment to directly transform high-precision 3D data into a micro-nano structure morphology through variable exposure doses,which reduces the hot melting step.Moreover,the flexible pressure device is capable of detecting and distinguishing signals ranging from finger movements to human pulses,even for speech recognition.This simple,convenient,and large-format lithographic method offers new opportunities for developing novel human-computer interaction devices.

文摘An active bacterial anti-adhesion strategy based on directional transportation of bacterial droplets driven by a triboelectric nanogenerator(TENG)has not been reported to date,although passive defense approaches can prevent bacterial adhesion by regulating superwetting surfaces combined with incorporated antibacterial substances.Here a triboelectric nanogenerator driving droplet system(TNDDS)was built to drive directional transportation of bacterial droplets to be eliminated,which comprises TENG with periodical frictional Kapton film and aluminum foils and a superhydrophobic driving platform(SDP)with paralleled driving electrodes.The current generated by the TENG triboelectricity is transmitted to the paralleled driving electrodes to form an electric field driving the directional transportation of charged droplets.The critical value of the driven droplet volume on SDP is closely related to the distributed electrodes’distance and width,and the driving distance of droplets is related to the number of electrodes.More crucially,TNDDS can actively drive the charged droplets of prepared triangular silver nanoprisms(Ag NPs)forward and back to mix with and remove a tiny bacterial droplet on an open SDP or in a tiny semi-enclosed channel.Bacteria could be killed by releasing Ag+and effectively removed by TNDDS by regulating the motion direction.Generally,this approach offers a promising application for removing bacteria from material surfaces driven by TENG and opens a new avenue for bacterial anti-adhesion.

文摘Pyrolysis-acquired iron and nitrogen codoped carbon(Fe-N-C)has been comprehensively investigated for its promising oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)catalytic performance and structural complexity.The modification of non-metal elements with larger atomic radius and the corresponding intrinsic microstructure-property relations are rarely reported.In this study,tellurium(Te)intervened Fe-N-C was prepared by micelles-induced polymerization with Te nanowires as an in-situ intervening agent.The out-plane bonding of Te with Fe induced the increase of both N content and proportion of pyridinic N on the material surface,thus improving the ORR catalytic performance.The assembled Zn-air battery demonstrated a maximum power density of 250 mW/cm^(2)and excellent rate capability under various discharge current densities,which was much better than the Pt/C.Overall,the current work demonstrates a novel Te/Fe-N-C material and reveals an original Te intervened Fe-N-C strategy and N reconfiguration mechanism,which is of great significance for the design of key materials in energy-related fields.

文摘Single-atomic transition metal-nitrogen codoped carbon(M-N-C)are efficient substitute catalysts for noble metals to catalyze the electrochemical CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR).However,the uncontrolled aggregations of metal and serious loss of nitrogen species constituting the M-N_(x) active sites are frequently observed in the commonly used pyrolysis procedure.Herein,single-atomic nickel(Ni)-based sheet-like electrocatalysts with abundant Ni-N_(4) active sites were created by using a novel ammonium chloride(NH_(4)Cl)-assited pyrolysis method.Spherical aberration correction electron microscopy and X-ray absorption fine structure analysis clearly revealed that Ni species are atomically dispersed and anchored by N in Ni-N_(4) structure.The addition of NH_(4)Cl optimized the mesopore size to 7-10 nm and increased the concentrations of pyridinic N(3.54 wt%)and Ni-N_(4)(3.33 wt%)species.The synergistic catalytic effect derived from Ni-N_(4) active sites and pyridinic N species achieved an outstanding CO_(2) RR performance,presenting a high CO Faradaic efficiency(FE_(CO))up to 98% and a large CO partial current density of 8.5 mA cm^(-2) at a low potential of-0.62 V vs.RHE.Particularly,the FE_(CO) maintains above 80% within a large potential range from -0.43 to -0.73 V vs.RHE.This work provides a practical and feasible approach to building highly active single-atomic catalysts for CO_(2) conversion systems.

文摘Three-dimensional holey nitrogen-doped carbon matrixes decorated with molybdenum dioxide(MoO_(2))nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized via a NaCl-assisted template strategy.The obtained MoO_(2)/C composites offered multi-advantages,including higher specific surface area,more active sites,more ions/electrons transmission channels,and shorter transmission path due to the synergistic effect of the uniformly distributed MoO_(2) nanoparticles and porous carbon structure.Especially,the oxygen vacancies were introduced into the prepared composites and enhanced the Li^(+)intercalation/deintercalation process during electrochemical cycling by the Coulomb force.The existence of the local built-in electric field was proved by experimental data,differential charge density distribution,and density of states calculation.The uniquely designed structure and introduced oxygen vacancy defects endowed the MoO_(2)/C composites with excellent electrochemical properties.In view of the synergistic effect of the uniquely designed morphology and introduced oxygen vacancy defects,the MoO_(2)/C composites exhibited superior electrochemical performance of a high capacity of 918.2 mAh g^(-1) at 0.1 A g^(-1) after 130 cycles,562.1 mAh g^(-1) at 1.0 A g^(-1) after 1000 cycles,and a capacity of 181.25 mAh g^(-1) even at 20.0 A g^(-1).This strategy highlights the path to promote the commercial application of MoO_(2)-based and other transition metal oxide electrodes for energy storage devices.
