Vat Photopolymerization (VPP) technology is expected to address the challenges of preparing high-strength, precise, and complex SiC ceramics. However, the poor printability of SiC powders and the low strength of the resulting SiC ceramics remain significant obstacles. To overcome these issues, this study proposes a SiO 2 /AlOOH double-coating method for modifying SiC powders. The effects of AlOOH content in the double coating on the properties of SiC powders, slurries, and ceramics were investigated. Additionally, the impact of sintering additives on the densification behavior and mechanical properties of SiC ceramics was examined. The results indicated that increasing the AlOOH content in the double coating decreased the UV absorption of the powders and increased the curing depth of the slurries, but also increased the viscosity of the pastes. Moreover, while increasing the AlOOH content in the double coating improved the densification and flexural strength of the ceramics, the effect was significantly less compared to optimizing the sintering additive. Using SiO 2 /AlOOH double-coated SiC powders containing 2.5 wt% AlOOH and 10 wt% Al 2 O 3 -Y 2 O 3 -MgO (mass ratio 1:8:1) sintering additives, SiC ceramics were prepared with a relative density of 91.1 ± 3.5 %, a Vickers hardness of 1685.6 ± 86.4 HV, and a flexural strength of 281.7 ± 14.4 MPa, much higher than that of other SiC ceramic prepared using the same process. This represents the highest flexural strength of SiC ceramics prepared by VPP technology to date, providing a new method for the preparation of high-strength SiC ceramics via VPP.

Silicon oxide (SiO x ) is considered to be one of the most promising anodes of lithium-ion batteries for its advantageous capacity and abundant natural resources. However, the practical application of SiO x is facing great challenges due to its low conductivity and poor cycle performance. In order to accelerate the commercial application of SiO x , we constructed a pitch pyrolytic carbon rigid coating and a highly conductive polyvinyl alcohol/polyethyleneimine/carbon nanotubes (PVA/PEI/CNTs) flexible coating on the surface of micron-sized SiO x . The synergistic effect of the double coating enhances the conductivity of SiO x , reduces the strain stress caused by the volume change of SiO x , prevents the particles from breaking away from the current collector, and maintains the structural integrity of SiO x under long-term cycling. The obtained SiO x /E@CPPC anode exhibits high initial coulombic efficiency (73.91%), excellent cycle stability (645.8 mAh·g −1 after 700 cycles at 0.5 A·g −1 ) and excellent rate performance (407.1 mAh·g −1 at 5 A·g −1 ). The double coating makes SiO x /E@CPPC composites have a good application prospect in lithium-ion batteries.

Layered LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O 2 as a promising cathode material for lithium-ion batteries possesses high theoretical capacity and broad application prospects. However, the destruction of structure during the cycles and the insufficient conductivity severely restrict the cycle life and rate capacity, especially at high cut-off voltage. As an improvement, the dual-coating of LiAlO 2 and graphene oxide (GO) was designed to modify the microstructure and migration dynamics of NCM622 surface. Compared to single coating, LiAlO 2 /GO showed a synergistic effect that simultaneously increased ion/electron transfer rate, reversibility and cycling stability of the cathode material. As a result, the initial capacity of the dual-coating material was 182.6 mAh/g at 200 mA/g (1 C) with a capacity attenuation of 0.06% per cycle in 200 cycles, while it was 222.6 mAh/g at 20 mA/g (0.1 C), and the rate capacity was 100.4 mAh/g at 2000 mA/g (10 C) in a voltage range of 3.0–4.5 V.

Organic-inorganic double-coated aluminum nanopowders (HTPB/Cu/nAl) were synthesized using a one-pot method. The morphology and structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The analysis revealed that Cu particles were uniformly dispersed around the nAl core, while HTPB formed a coating on the Cu/nAl surface. The thermal oxidation kinetics and catalytic effects on ammonium perchlorate (AP) were investigated through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results indicated a 9% increase in the active aluminum content of the double-coated nanopowders compared to uncoated nAl, and a reduction in the average activation energy for thermal oxidation from 297.75 kJ·mol-1 to 218.85 kJ·mol-1. The HTPB coating enhanced the friction and impact sensitivity of the Cu/nAl particles. Adding 5% HTPB/Cu/nAl to AP advanced the low- and high-temperature decomposition peaks by 5°C and 40°C, respectively, while reducing the activation energy of AP from 85.61 kJ·mol-1 to 79.79 kJ·mol-1. This addition significantly influenced the thermal decomposition of AP, improving combustion efficiency and enhancing compatibility within composite propellant formulations.

The lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery has received widespread attention because of the high theoretical energy density and inexpensive raw material. However, some issues still restrict its commercialization, including the shuttle effect, the lithium dendrite growth and low safety, etc. In this work, a PMMA-LLZO/PP/AB multifunctional separator was designed and facilely prepared to overcome these problems. A composite dense layer of the PMMA and LLZO sheets with excellent interface stability was coated on one side of the PP separator to face lithium metal anode, which can inhibit the lithium dendrites growth and increase the safety. Meanwhile, this composite coating possesses high affinity with the liquid electrolyte and the soluble polysulfides, which can improve the ionic conductivity, effectively adsorb the polysulfides. An acetylene black (AB) layer was further coated on the other side of the PP separator to not only act as an electron conductor but also adsorb and hinder the migration of lithium polysulfides. The co-modified PMMA-LLZO/PP/AB separator displays remarkable electrochemical performances and an excellent thermal stability. The cell with the co-modified separator exhibits high specific capacities of 1456 mAh g −1 at 0.1 C and 969 mAh g −1 at 1.0 C, and retains a capacity of 413 mAh g −1 after 500 cycles, corresponding to a retention of 42.6% as well as a low decay of 0.114%/cycle. Especially, the cell with the multifunctional separator also displays a high capacity and a low decay even for a high sulfur mass loading cathode of 2.5–3.0 mg cm −2 or at a high temperature of 60 °C. The co-modified multifunctional separator has great application potential in the high-performance Li-S battery.
