Flammability and wrinkling are major defects that enormously restrict its application of cotton fabric in daily life. Herein, a N-heterocyclic compound with ammonium phosphate ester groups (PNH) was synthesized and served as a cross-linking agent to simultaneously enhance the flame-retardant and anti-wrinkle properties of cotton fabric. Fabric treated by 20 wt% PNH solution (CT/PNH20) possessed a wrinkle recovery angle of 234.8° and an LOI value of 42.7 %. It still self-extinguished during combustion even after 50 washing times, and the deterioration in flame retardancy mainly resulted from the formation of sodium phosphates during washing. Its LOI value after 50 washing times restored to 37.8 % from 27.5 % by a facile ion exchange strategy, revealing remarkable flame-retardant restorability. This work provides new insights into simultaneously enhancing the flame-retardant, anti-wrinkle performances of cotton fabric and restoring the flame retardancy of treated fabric after washing via facile and eco-friendly approaches.

Hierarchical structural double network hydrogel (H-DN gel) was fabricated by inducing ferric coordination crosslinkers in the second network of PAMPS/P(AAm–AAc) double network hydrogel. Investigations of the tensile and compressive properties indicated that the H-DN gel exhibited a dramatic enhancement in the Young's modulus, tensile ultimate strength, toughness, compressive modulus and stress, compared to traditional double network hydrogels. H-DN hydrogel exhibited good recoverability that remained at ∼70% of the initial dissipated energy after resting at 60 °C for 15 min. Finally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the amount of embedded micro-network structures in H-DN gel became more intensive and the walls got thicker.

Gallium-based liquid metals are applied in the fabrication of soft electronics because of their conductivity and flexibility. However, the large surface tension and weak adhesion of liquid metals limit the available printing substrates. Recent researches indicate that amalgamating metal particles can turn liquid metal from fluid into a paste which has superb electrical conductivity, plasticity, and strong adhesion to substrates. In this work, a recoverable liquid metal paste was made by mixing eutectic Ga–In alloy and nonmetallic SiO2 (quartz) particles (Ga–In–SiO2 paste, called GIS). GIS has excellent conductivity and printable properties similar to those of previously reported liquid metal pastes. Furthermore, the bonding between Ga–In alloy and quartz particles is reversible. In acidic or alkaline solution, Ga–In alloy can be separated from quartz particles and agglomerated to bulk by stirring. Moreover, the study of the mechanism of adhesion behavior suggests that extruding fresh liquid metal droplets to form more oxide and shearing friction are the critical factors for adhesion. This work proposed a new liquid metal paste with a reversible rheological property and promoted the understanding of the working principle of liquid metal paste.

Antibacterial properties of norfloxacin (NOR) could cause adverse impact on engineered biological process. In this study, the objective was to investigate the inhibitory effects of NOR on anaerobic digestion focusing on the recoverability and microbial community changes. The effects of different concentrations of NOR on anaerobic digestion were studied with three continuous feed cycles. Results showed that NOR seriously inhibited the methane production with an 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) of 0.41 mM. In addition, with extending of exposure time, inhibitory effect increasingly strengthened and the IC 50 values decreased to 0.16 mM and 0.07 mM in the second and third feeding cycle, respectively. However, when the inhibitor in supernatant was removed, the performance recovered and the relative methane yield increased by 9 times from 25.38 mL/g VS to 257.05 mL/g VS. The transformation of NOR showed that the degradation of NOR in the anaerobic digestion was difficult and the recovery was due to the removal of NOR. The microbial analysis revealed that the inhibition of NOR on bacteria of Candidatus _ Cloacimonas , Petrimonas , Ercella , Sphaerochaeta and hydrogenotrophic methanogens of Methanoculleus and Methanobacterium was recoverable when NOR was removed. However, it was irreversible for acetoclastic methanogen of Methanosaeta . These findings provided comprehensive understanding on the characteristics of NOR inhibition and also provided feasible strategy to recover the NOR inhibited anaerobic digestion.

A novel flexible and recoverable SiC nanofiber aerogel (SiC nf aerogel) was synthesized by electrospinning and freeze-drying methods. The SiC fibers prepared by electrospinning technique, have a fine diameter (~600 nm) and excellent flexibility. On this basis, the fibers are stirred at a high-speed and then subjected to freeze-drying and high-temperature treatment to prepare a SiC nf aerogels. The fabricated SiC nf aerogels possess low density (0.039–0.041 g/cm 3 ), excellent thermal insulation (0.025–0.031 W/(m∙K)), and mechanical properties of recoverable strain (~40%). Meanwhile, the SiC nf aerogels show excellent electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption characteristics, which have the effective absorption bandwidth of 9–11.5 GHz (reflection loss (RL) < −10 dB, more than 90% EM wave was absorbed) and minimum RL value attained −21.41 dB at 10.5 GHz with the thickness of 3 mm. The successful preparation of the novel multifunctional material can be used for high temperature insulation materials and electromagnetic wave absorbing materials in harsh environments.

Surface with low energy plays an irreplaceable role in antifouling coatings, national defense and military industry. However, low-energy surface has poor surface stability, which leads to the difficulty of recovery and massive waste. Thus, it is urgent to exploit low surface free energy materials with excellent surface stability. In this work, a series of ionic liquid-reinforced polybenzoxazine/urethane (poly(DHB/PU)) films was prepared, the dihydroxybenzoxazine (DHB), stearyldiethanolamine (SDEA) and hydroxyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (HTPDMS) introduced into the molecular chains provide the films low-surface-energy properties. Then, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ionic liquid (IL) were added into the poly(DHB/PU) system. The comprehensive properties of the modified films were further improved, including recoverability, outstanding thermal stability (10 % weight loss temperature ranged from 270.51 to 308.51 °C), solvent resistance and low surface free energy (average 20 mN/m). Besides, the dense hydrogen bonds formed between imidazolium groups in IL and carbamates are the critical factor for optimizations of compatibility and mechanical properties. The higher the content of IL, the better the compatibility, the better the mechanical properties (elastic modulus varied from 63.32 MPa to 124.57 MPa) and the lower the peel strength (<7.975 gf/in) of the films. The synthesized polymer has great potential in the application of recoverable adhesive tape substrate.

It remains challenging to satisfy the combined performances for hydrogels with excellent mechanical behavior, high deformability, and super recoverability under harsh environmental conditions. In this study, we first established a strong polymer network via the crosslinking of polymer chains on the surfaces of sub-5-nm calcium hydroxide nanospherulites in ethylene glycol solvent. The organic gel expressed excellent mechanical properties such as a recoverable compressive engineering stress of 249 MPa and an elongation stress of 402 KPa, which was attributed to the uniform nanosized crosslinking structure as characterized by SEM. Moreover, the nonvolatile solvent remained in the gel, meaning that the sample can resist a wide temperature range of −56 to 100 °C without losing the elastic properties. This novel organic gel could provide promising routes to develop the ideal elastic carriers for wearable devices, smart skin sensors, and damping materials. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Protein-based hydrogels with promising biocompatibility and biodegradability have attracted considerable interest in areas of epidermal sensing, whereas, which are still difficult to synchronously possess high mechanical strength, self-adhesion, and recoverability. Hence, the bio-polymer lignosulfonate-reinforced gluten organohydrogels (GOHL x ) are fabricated through green and simple food-making processes and the following solvent exchange with glycerol/water binary solution. Ascribing to the uniform distribution of lignosulfonate in gluten networks, as well as the noncovalent interactions (e.g., H-bond) between them, the resultant GOHL x exhibit favorable conductivity (∼14.3 × 10 −4 S m −1 ), toughness (∼711.0 kJ m −3 ), self-adhesion (a maximal lap-shear strength of ∼33.5 kPa), high sensitivity (GF up to ∼3.04), and durability (∼3000 cycles) toward shape deformation, which are suitable for the detection of both drastic (e.g., elbow and wrist bending) and subtle (e.g., swallowing and speaking) human movements even under −20 °C. Furthermore, the GOHL x is also biocompatible, degradable, and recoverable (by a simple kneading process). Thus, this work may pave a simple, green, and cheap way to prepare all-biomass-based, tough, sticky, and recoverable protein-based organohydrogels for epidermal strain sensing even in harsh environments.

Efficient, convenient, economical and environmentally friendly materials have always been the first choice for solving environmental problems . In this work, stable carbonized and ordered hollow nanofiber aerogels were obtained under the action of directional freezing and calcination. The benzoxazine monomer (BA) in the nanofiber was polymerized in situ under the action of high temperature to crosslink the nanofibers, thereby further stabilizing the aerogel structure. The plastic deformation of the carbonized aerogel after oil absorption with 100 cycles of compression was 30%. The carbonized hollow nanofiber aerogels were superhydrophobic and oleophilic, which allowed selective absorption of oil upon contact with oily wastewater. As a similar density, the oil absorption performance of the hollow nanofiber aerogels was higher than that of the normal nanofiber aerogels, implying high efficiency of the hollow nanofiber aerogels. After compression, the dry sample could recover its shape in oil, indicating the resilience of the hollow nanofiber aerogel. Moreover, the cycle absorption experiment illustrated that low-toxicity ethanol could remove most of the oil adsorbed in the aerogels, and ensure stable performance during recycling. After five cycles, the hollow nanofiber aerogel still retained its the original shape without fiber falling off, reducing the secondary pollution to the environment. The present study provides a strategy for the design and fabrication of ordered hollow nanofiber aerogels for wastewater treatment and other potential applications.

Recoverable energy-absorbing materials are crucial for advancing impact-resistant systems; however, they are typically limited by low energy dissipation (<1 MJ·m −3 ). The horn of bighorn sheep ( Ovis canadensis ) exhibits outstanding energy dissipation and shape recovery, enabled by multiscale mechanisms including aligned tubules and lamellar keratin cells, along with hydration-driven self-recovery. Inspired by this hierarchical architecture, a recoverable porous energy-absorbing composite through a modified gelation-assisted self-assembly method is fabricated to construct a microtubular scaffold with lamellar-aligned nanoplatelets, which is subsequently infiltrated with a dynamic covalent epoxy matrix. The optimized composite exhibits exceptional energy absorption (10 MJ·m −3 ), exceeding conventional recoverable architected materials by an order of magnitude, while simultaneously achieving high compressive strength (> 50 MPa), low density (1.1 g·cm −3 ), and stable cyclic shape recovery performance. These mechanical properties arise from synergistic multiscale toughening mechanisms, including tubular buckling (macroscale), lamellar crack deflection and interfacial delamination (microscale), and matrix viscoelasticity (nanoscale). The epoxy matrix further contributes to reversible deformation and cyclic damage recovery. This study establishes a scalable biomimetic strategy for engineering lightweight, high-strength, and reusable materials with high energy dissipation, addressing critical challenges in potential protective applications.

A novel type of physical hydrogel based on dual-crosslinked strategy is successfully synthesized by micellar copolymerization of stearyl methacrylate, acrylamide, and acrylic acid, and subsequent introduction of Fe 3+ . Strong hydrophobic associations among poly(stearyl methacrylate) blocks form the first crosslinking point and ionic coordination bonds between carboxyl groups and Fe 3+ serve as the second crosslinking point. The mechanical properties of the hydrogel can be tuned in a wide range by controlling the densities of two crosslinks. The optimal hydrogel shows excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength of ≈6.8 MPa, elastic modulus of ≈8.0 MPa, elongation of ≈1000%, toughness of 53 MJ m −3 ) and good self-recovery property. Furthermore, owing to stimuli responsiveness of physical interaction, this hydrogel also shows a triple shape memory effect. The combination of two different physical interactions in a single network provides a general strategy for designing of high-strength hydrogels with functionalities.

Synthetic hydrogels struggle to match the high strength, toughness, and recoverability of biological tissues under periodic mechanical loading. Although the hydrophobic polymer chain of polystyrene (PS) may initially collapse into a nanosphere upon contact with water, it has the ability to be elongated when it is subjected to an external force. To address this challenge, we employ the reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) method to design a carboxyl-substituted polystyrene (CPS) which can form a covalently cross-linked network with four-armed amino-terminated polyethylene glycol (4-armed-PEG-NH2), and a ductile polyacrylamide network is introduced in order to prepare a double-network (DN) hydrogel. Our results demonstrate that the DN hydrogel exhibits exceptional mechanical properties (0.62 kJ m–2 fracture energy, 2510.89 kJ m–3 toughness, 0.43 MPa strength, and 820% elongation) when a sufficient external force is applied to fracture it. Moreover, when the DN hydrogel is subjected to a 200% strain, it displays superior recoverability (94.5%). This holds a significant potential in enhancing the mechanical performance of synthetic hydrogels and can have wide-ranging applications in fields such as tissue engineering for hydrophobic polymers.
