Herein, oriented boron nitride (BN)/alumina (Al 2 O 3 )/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites were obtained by filler orientation due to the shear-inducing effect via 3-D printing. The oriented BN platelets acted as a rapid highway for heat transfer in the matrix and resulted in a significant increase in the thermal conductivity along the orientation direction. Extra addition of spherical Al 2 O 3 enhanced the fillers networks and resulted in the dramatic growth of slurry viscosity. This, together with filler orientation induced the synergism and provided large increases in the thermal conductivity . A high orientation degree of 90.65% and in-plane thermal conductivity of 3.64 W/(m∙K) were realized in the composites with oriented 35 wt% BN and 30 wt% Al 2 O 3 hybrid fillers. We attributed the influence of filler orientation and hybrid fillers on the thermal conductivity to the decrease of thermal interface resistance of composites and proposed possible theoretical models for the thermal conductivity enhancement mechanisms.

We synthesized novel polyurethane (PU) membranes from isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with a molecular weight of 2000, aminopropyl-terminated poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) with a molecular weight of 2000, and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) via a two-step polymerization. The structure of each synthesized membrane was studied through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography. The effect of the thermal behavior was determined by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The gas-permeability characteristics of the PU membranes were then tested for a single gas. The results show that the permeability of CO 2 ( P CO2 ) gradually increased with PDMS content. Among these PU membranes, PU-d (PEG/PDMS = 1:1, PEG/PDMS/IPDI/BDO = 1:3:2) showed the best P CO2 (132.6 Barrer) at 25°C and 1 bar pressure. The gas-permeability coefficients of each PU membrane at different operating temperatures were investigated, and the results show that P CO2 reached 302.6 Barrer at 65°C and 1 bar. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Flexible pressure sensors play an indispensable role in flexible electronics. Microstructures on flexible electrodes have been proven to be effective in improving the sensitivity of pressure sensors. However, it remains a challenge to develop such microstructured flexible electrodes in a convenient way. Inspired by splashed particles from laser processing, herein, a method for customizing microstructured flexible electrodes by femtosecond laser-activated metal deposition is proposed. It takes advantage of the catalyzing particles scattered during femtosecond laser ablation and is particularly suitable for moldless, maskless, and low-cost fabrication of microstructured metal layers on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Robust bonding at the PDMS/Cu interface is evidenced by the scotch tape test and the duration test over 10 000 bending cycles. Benefiting from the firm interface, the developed flexible capacitive pressure sensor with microstructured electrodes presents several conspicuous features, including a sensitivity (0.22 kPa −1 ) 73 times higher than the one using flat Cu electrodes, ultralow detection limit (<1 Pa), rapid response/recovery time (4.2/5.3 ms), and excellent stability. Moreover, the proposed method, inheriting the merits of laser direct writing, is capable of fabricating a pressure sensor array in a maskless manner for spatial pressure mapping.

Superhydrophobic surfaces, such as lotus leaves, have attracted significant attention because of their excellent performance and potential application value. However, the micro-nano hierarchy on superhydrophobic surfaces is often vulnerable and easily broken from mechanical stress or chemical corrosion, which greatly inhibits its practical application and long-term service. This study presents a low-cost and scalable superhydrophobic coating based on an interpenetrated polymer network of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and epoxy resin . The composite polymer matrix exhibits mechanical robustness as derived from the epoxy resin and low surface energy as derived from the PDMS. The superhydrophobic coating is obtained by dispersing fluoroalkyl-silane-modified SiO 2 in the solution containing the composite polymer . The multi-level hierarchical structure of SiO 2 aggregations and their strong bonding with the composite polymer gives the coating outstanding mechanical durability while maintaining superhydrophobicity after multiple cycles of sandpaper abrasion, tape peeling, and water impact tests. The chemical inertness of all components ensures its chemical stability, and the surface shows super repellency to strong acids and alkaline liquids (pH = 0–14). The coating also has excellent self-cleaning properties, which has potential applications in various industrial fields.

PS microspheres emulsions with different PS diameters of 207 and 378 nm were prepared by using an emulsifier-free polymerization method. A novel secondary self-assembly method which combined the spin coating and the lifting-up method was used to prepare the close-packed PS MCC films. During the process, the PS MCC film was firstly assembled on a glass substrate by a spin coating technique. Secondly, the obtained PS MCC film was transferred on the air-water interface by immersing the PS glass substrate in water using a dip-coater. Thirdly, the floating close-packed PS MCC films on the air-water interface was transferred to a new glass substrate by using a lifting-up method. During the spin-coating and the self-assembly process, some SDS solution was added in the PS films to improve the uniformity of the PS layer. Effects of the spin-coating speeds, the SDS solution concentration and the lifting-up rates on the morphology of PS MCC films have been discussed. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the morphological properties of the PS colloidal crystal films. Results indicate that a relatively close-packed and large scale PS MCC films can be obtained when the spinning speed is 2000 rpm for 60 s, the SDS solution concentration is 2 wt% and the lifting-up rate is 2 mm/min. Furthermore, the polydimethylsiloxane soft mold was replicated from the-fabricated PS MCC films and was then imprinted onto the photosensitive hybrid film under UV-irradiation and thus the micro-lens arrays built in the photosensitive hybrid sol–gel film were obtained.

Efficient separation of aromatic-aliphatic hydrocarbon mixtures has long been an important topic in chemical industries. Organic nanofiltration (OSN) has been revealing great promise in separating solvent mixtures that has not been effectively resolved by the state-of-the-art technologies. Herein, novel OSN membranes are designed for the separation of toluene and n -heptane. Polyamide active layer with diaminonaphthalene as the aqueous phase monomer is prepared by interfacial polymerization for the first time. The addition of polydimethylsiloxane gutter layer, as well as the combination of spin coating technique and macroporous substrate, renders the membranes with loose and defect-free architectures. The as-designed membranes achieve a rather high selectivity of toluene over n -heptane (>4) together with ultra-high toluene permeance (>180 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 ). These membranes also present excellent stability in the long-term operation.
