To obtain a rapid processible LED encapsulant that leads to high and stable light extraction efficiency (LEE), UV curable ZrO2/phenyl-siloxane nano-composite (ZSC) double-layer encapsulants were prepared and optimized. The highly crystalline ZrO2 nanoparticles with a diameter of ∼14 nm were synthesized through a modified hydrothermal method at mild conditions, and a UV curable methacryl-diphenyl-polysiloxane (MDPS) with a refractive index (RI) of 1.54 (at 633 nm) was synthesized from self-condensation of diphenylsilanediol and an end-capping reaction. High refractive indexes (RIs) from 1.54–1.61 have been obtained for ZSC composites by adding 0–20 wt% ZrO2. Before and after sulfur vapor erosion, the double-layer encapsulated sample (M-10/M) showed 11.2% and 64.8% higher LEE respectively than that of Dow Corning OE-7662. Meanwhile, the variation of LED light color temperature (Tc) was less than 1%. The effect of the ZrO2 nanoparticle content on LEE of double-layer and single-layer encapsulation were compared and discussed based on Fresnel loss and Rayleigh scattering theories. The double-layered UV curing processing took only 1/6 of the time needed for common thermal curing.

Novel microencapsulated phase change materials (MEPCMs) with high encapsulation capacity and enhanced leakage-prevention performance were prepared by in situ polymerization. For these MEPCMs, paraffin and melamine-formaldehyde resin (MF) are respectively used as core and shell, and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, which can be seen as extra protective screen, are situated at the interface between the core and the shell. Effects of GO on morphology, microstructure and properties of MEPCMs were characterized by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), laser diffraction particle analyzer, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and paraffin leakage rate test. The results show that the fabricated MEPCMs with GO nanosheets have gradual increasing average diameters from 6.32 to 15.89 μm with an increase content of GO, while the size of MEPCMs without GO is 5.63 μm. When the time of leakage rate test is 50 h, the MEPCMs prepared with 0.5 mg/mL GO aqueous dispersion have considerably high encapsulation ratio of 93.9 wt.%, and the leakage rate is reduced by 93.1% compared with those without GO. The high encapsulation capacity and enhanced leakage-prevention performance might be highly attractive for the application of MEPCMs.

Nanoporous gold (NPG) offers promise in electronic packaging due to its high compressibility, excellent conductivity, and high thermal conductivity. However, fabricating ultrafine (1–10 μm) conductive NPG microspheres presents a challenge. Herein, we report a novel method for preparing high-volume shrinkage NPG microspheres (NPGMS) with a particle size range of 2.3–8 μm (average 5.06 μm, calculated by ImageJ software). The method involves preparing gold-copper precursors via spray freeze-drying, achieving spheroidization through non-wetting effects at the liquid-solid interface, and fabricating NPGMS by chemical dealloying. Statistical analysis shows a 79 % average volume shrinkage upon dealloying. By using these high-volume shrinkage NPGMS, we fabricated an NPGMS anisotropic conductive film (NPGMS-ACF) and demonstrated its superior performance in 500-micron pitch Flex-on-Glass (FOG) bonding. Remarkably, at only 5 wt% powder loading, the NPGMS-ACF exhibited significantly improved connection reliability compared to commercial ACFs. In cyclic thermal shock testing, NPGMS-ACF packaged devices displayed exceptional stability, with a resistance change of 0.468 Ω (18.4 % change) after 5 cycles. In contrast, commercial ACF packaged devices failed after one cycle, with resistance changes exceeding 100 MΩ. The improved performance of NPGMS-ACF stems from: (1) NPGMS’s excellent thermal and electrical conductivity; (2) enhanced chip-substrate bonding due to the porous structure’s high compressibility, effectively reducing thermal stress. These findings establish NPGMS-ACF as a promising candidate for advanced liquid crystal display (LCD) packaging, providing enhanced thermal shock resistance and adhesive reliability.

Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are promising luminescent materials but suffer severe stability issues due to their ionic surface nature. SiO2 encapsulation is widely adopted for stabilizing PNCs in LED lighting and display applications. However, PNCs commonly lose ligands during the SiO2 encapsulation process, leading to fluorescence quenching and agglomeration. Here, CsPbBr3 PNCs with lead-carboxylate capping motif, which shows extraordinary ethanol and moisture resistance, were developed to facilitate fast and controlled growth of PNC–SiO2 nanocrystals using ethanol to accelerate the hydrolysis of tetramethoxysilane. Surface analysis revealed the preservation of the original carboxylate ligands after the reaction. Carboxylate and SiO2 form uniform dual-encapsulation that provides PNCs with superior air and water resistance, excellent photoluminescence maintenance, and high miscibility in silicone resin. Finally, saturated green LED and white-light LED with a wide color gamut were fabricated through on-chip packaging of the PNC–SiO2 on the blue LED chip. LEDs retained >85% of their light intensity after continuous illumination for 1000 h, demonstrating the high potential of the encapsulation method and the materials in light-emitting applications.

Lead halide perovskite CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) nanocrystals (NCs) are widely used in the newest generation of lighting display equipment because of their excellent optical properties. However, their poor stability remains an urgent issue to overcome. Encapsulation has become a significant and effective strategy to promote the stability of perovskite NCs, particularly by the package coating of polymer and porous materials. Herein, a simple two-step encapsulation strategy is adopted to fabricate CsPbBrI2@zeolite/PMMA composite films to replace the previous preparation methods of perovskite films. A highly efficient and stable red-emitting material with great colour purity and excellent PLQY of ∼53.9% is manufactured by this simple and effective packaging method. Furthermore, because of the first-encapsulation with zeolite, the CsPbBrI2@zeoite/PMMA composite films not only reduced the agglomeration of NCs but also obtained better optical performance and environmental stability compared to that of pure CsPbBrI2/PMMA. Ultimately, WLEDs constructed by the red-emitting CsPbBrI2@zeolite/PMMA composite material achieve an outstanding colour rendering index, luminous efficiency and correlated color temperature (CRI = 94.5, LE = 77.22 lm W−1 and CCT = 5354 K), and realize tunable colour coordinates of (0.3359–0.32912, 0.3455–0.3336) in the white light area, implying that CsPbBrI2@zeolite/PMMA is very promising for obtaining a high CRI of WLEDs instead of traditional phosphor. The facile two-step encapsulation method proposed in this study provides a prospect for obtaining high-quality perovskites.

Fragrances, which are commonly used in food, textiles, consumer products, and medical supplies, are volatile compounds that require stabilization and controlled release due to their sensitivity to environmental conditions such as light, oxygen, temperature, and humidity. Encapsulation in various material matrices is a desired technique for these purposes, and there is a growing interest in using sustainable natural materials to reduce environmental impact. In this study, fragrance encapsulation in microspheres made from silk fibroin (SF) was investigated. Fragrance-loaded silk fibroin microspheres (Fr-SFMSs) were prepared by adding fragrance/surfactant emulsions to silk solutions, followed by mixing them with polyethylene glycol under ambient conditions. The study investigated eight different fragrances, where citral, beta-ionone, and eugenol showed higher binding affinities to silk than the other five fragrances, resulting in better microsphere formation with uniform sizes and higher fragrance loading (10–30%). Citral-SFMSs showed characteristic crystalline β-sheet structures of SF, high thermal stability (initial weight loss at 255 °C), long shelf life at 37 °C (>60 days), and sustained release (∼30% of citral remained after incubation at 60 °C for 24 h). When citral-SFMSs with different sizes were used to treat cotton fabrics, about 80% of the fragrance remained on the fabrics after one wash, and the duration of release from the treated fabrics was significantly longer than that of control samples treated with citral alone (no microspheres). This method of preparing Fr-SFMSs has potential applications in textile finishing, cosmetics, and the food industry.

BACKGROUND Rutin is a natural bioactive flavonoid that is poor in water solubility and chemical stability. Encapsulation can be used to protect bioactive molecules from chemical or physical decomposition during food processing and storage. Thus, the effect of initial particle size on the ability of oil-in-water emulsions to retain rutin during storage was investigated. RESULTS Rutin was encapsulated in oil-in-water emulsions with different mean surface-weighted diameters: d 3,2 = 0.56 μm (small), 0.73 μm (medium), and 2.32 μm (large). As expected, the resistance of the emulsions to coalescence and creaming during storage increased as the particle size decreased due to weakening of the colloidal and gravitational forces acting on the droplets. The concentration of rutin in the emulsions decreased during storage (28 days), which was mainly attributed to photodegradation of the flavonoid. The loss of rutin from the emulsions during storage was fitted using a second-order equation. The rutin degradation rate constant k decreased and the half-life t 1/2 increased with decreasing droplet size, which was attributed to the stronger encapsulation and light scattering by smaller oil droplets reducing the amount of light that can penetrate into the emulsions. CONCLUSION This study has important implications for the design of more efficacious emulsion-based delivery systems for incorporating health-promoting nutraceuticals into foods. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

In this study, different amounts of cinnamomum essential oil (CEO) were encapsulated in chitosan nanoparticles (NPs) (CS-NPs) through oil-in-water emulsification and ionic gelation. An ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, synchronous thermal analysis, and X-ray diffraction were employed to analyze the CEO encapsulation. As observed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, NP size analysis and zeta potential, the prepared CS-NPs, containing CEO (CS-CEO), were spherical with uniformly distributed sizes (diameters: 190–340 nm). The ranges of encapsulation efficiency (EE) and loading capacity (LC) were 4.6–32.9% and 0.9–10.4%, with variations in the starting weight ratio of CEO to CS from 0.11 to 0.53 (w/w). It was also found that the antioxidant activity of the CS-NPs loaded with CEO increased as the EE increased. The active ingredients of the CEO were prevented from being volatilized, significantly improving the chemical stability. The antioxidant activity of CS-CEO was higher than that of the free CEO. These results indicate the promising potential of CS-CEO as an antioxidant for food processing, and packaging applications.Keywords:cinnamomum essential oil;chitosan;encapsulation;antioxidant activity

A facile route was introduced to prepare homogeneous silicone resin doped with titanium hybrid with high refractive index (RI). Specifically, the hybrids were obtained from the transesterification of hydroxyl-phenyl-vinyl silicone resin and titanium isopropoxide under anhydrous conditions. The structures of hybrid silicone and their corresponding intermediates (hydroxyl-phenyl-vinyl silicone) were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H NMR, 29 Si NMR) as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The hybrids had a transmittance of more than 88% ranging from 450 nm to 800 nm, a high RI of 1.585, and a lower water vapor permeability of 3.58 g /m 2 .24h. Results from FTIR showed intensity of Ti-O-Si bond in hybrid decrease with extended the storage time, but the properties of cured hybrids including optical, mechanical, and gas permeability were not influenced. Compared to chips encapsulated with pure silicone, the luminous efficiency of the chips encapsulated with hybrids was improved from 138.6 lm/W to 156.4 lm/W. The thermal shock and hygrothermal aging test also demonstrated the hybrids had a wide range application in light-emitting diode (LED) packaging. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Encapsulating metallic nanoparticles (NPs) with a graphitic carbon shell is a promising strategy to achieve highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and electrochemical overall water splitting (OWS). This work presents a simple and facile synthesis of graphitic carbon coated NixRuy alloys. The optimized catalyst (e-Ni0.6Ru0.4@C) displays an ultrafine morphology and outstanding HER and OER activities in alkaline media, which are among the best reported so far for various carbon-based electrocatalysts. Remarkably, the e-Ni0.6Ru0.4@C‖e-Ni0.6Ru0.4@C pair needs a low cell voltage of 1.51/1.62 V for driving OWS to reach 10/100 mA cm−2, far outperforming the benchmark electrode pair Pt/C‖RuO2. As expected, this carbon-based catalyst also exhibits superior durability as compared to that of precious catalysts. The experimental evidence combined with density functional theory (DFT) computations thus demonstrates for the first time that minor Ru alloying enables not only the morphological modulation but also the fine electronic modification of the catalyst, which both facilitate the overall electrochemical reactions on the carbon shell surface. Thus, our results may further shed light on how to design and optimize carbon-based electrocatalysts to achieve enhanced catalytic performance for OWS.

To address the leakage issue of paraffin phase-change materials in thermal management, a monolithic MTMS-based silica aerogel (MSA) is employed to encapsulate paraffin through a facile impregnation process. We find that the paraffin and MSA form a physical combination, with little interaction occurring between them. The prepared no-leakage paraffin/MSA composites have a density of 0.70 g/cm3and exhibit good mechanical properties and nice hydrophobicity, with a contact angle of 122°. Furthermore, the average latent heat of the paraffin/MSA composites is found to reach up to 209.3 J/g, about 85% of the pure paraffin’s latent heat, which is significantly larger than other paraffin/silica aerogel phase-change composite materials. The thermal conductivity of the paraffin/MSA remains almost the same as that of the pure paraffin (~250 mW/m/K), without any heat transfer interference from the MSA skeletons. All these results indicate that MSA can effectively serve as a carrier material for encapsulating paraffin, which is beneficial for expanding the applications of MSAs in thermal management and energy storage.

A nano-hollow zeolite-encapsulating ultra-fine Fe nanoparticle catalyst denoted as Fe@n-hS-HT was successfully synthesized through a simple water steam treatment of the Fe@n-hS catalyst prepared by the “dissolution–recrystallization” (D-R) method. The Fe@n-hS-HT catalyst had a hierarchical porous structure and a high dispersion of Fe2O3particles with a size of 3.4 nm. Furthermore, the results of several characterization methods, such as XRD, HAADF-STEM, and H2-TPR, further demonstrated the transformation of the skeleton Fe in Fe@n-hS into Fe2O3, which was uniformly dispersed in the Fe@n-hS-HT catalyst. Meanwhile, Fe@n-hS-HT had significantly higher selectivity and yield of C2-C4=than the reference catalysts Fe/S and Fe@n-hS, which provided strong proof for the confined catalysis of the metal@zeolite catalyst.Keywords:hollow zeolite;Fischer–Tropsch synthesis;encapsulation;iron catalyst
