The use of microwave absorption (MA) materials in practical aerospace applications would be challenging without a dependable mechanical support structure. However, achieving a wide effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) in aramid honeycomb structures at low weight gain is crucial for the practical aerospace applications of MA materials. To address this challenge, this study proposes a combination of porous carbon foam and high structural strength honeycomb to achieve broadband microwave absorption in structural devices through the synergistic effect of carbon foam absorption and honeycomb structure. The uniform filling process of ultra-lightweight reduced GO aerogel is achieved through freeze-drying, solving the issues of uneven dispersion and incomplete filling of traditional absorbers in honeycombs. Further optimization and comprehensive evaluation of filling concentration and reduction process were carried out. The freeze-drying process combined with chemically reduced honeycomb samples filled with different concentrations of GO all exhibit broadband absorption performance. At a specific standard honeycomb thickness of 15 mm, uniformly filled honeycomb samples with 0.1 to 0.3% GO exhibit triple resonance peaks near 2–3 GHz, 8–9 GHz, and 15 GHz, with effective absorption peaks all below − 10 dB. Moreover, the incorporation of transparent wave honeycomb walls in conjunction with honeycomb materials enhances the overall impedance matching, leading to a further improvement in the EAB to 10.53 GHz for the honeycomb sample filled with 0.2% freeze-dried and reduced GO. CST simulation data confirms that the loss in the honeycomb samples originates from uniform conduction loss, and the electric field stably enters the interior of the honeycomb. This approach, based on the rapid and efficient filling of uniform RGO by freeze-drying, provides a new way to achieve broadband microwave absorption in aramid honeycombs and has significant potential for development in the field of aerospace stealth.

Photocatalytic technology is an attractive option for environmental remediation because of its green and sustainable nature. However, the inefficient utilization of solar energy and powder morphology currently impede its practical application. Here, we designed a floatable photocatalyst by anchoring 0D Cu2(OH)PO4 (CHP) nanoparticles on 2D graphene to construct 0D/2D CHP/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) aerogels. The CHP/rGO aerogels have interconnected mesopores that provide a large surface area, promoting particle dispersion and increasing the number of active sites. Moreover, the optical response of the CHP/rGO aerogel has been significantly expanded to cover the full spectrum of the solar light. Notably, the 20%CHP/rGO aerogel displayed a high degradation rate (k = 0.178 min–1) taking methylene blue (MB) as a model pollutant under light irradiation (λ > 420 nm). The enhanced photocatalytic activity is ascribed to the rapid electron transfer in the CHP/rGO heterostructures, as supported by the DFT theoretical calculations. Our research highlights the utilization of full spectrum responsive photocatalysts for the elimination of organic pollutants from wastewater under solar light irradiation, as well as the potential for catalyst recovery using floatable aerogels to meet industrial requirements.

A porous KVPO 4 F/reduced graphene oxide (KVPF/rGO) microgrid aerogel electrode is designed and fabricated using direct ink writing 3D printing for high-performance potassium-ion battery cathodes. This 3D-printed KVPF/rGO aerogel electrode, which integrates well-dispersed KVPO 4 F microspheres in the reduced graphene oxide matrix, shows enhanced structural integrity and electrical conductivity, thereby facilitating efficient ion and electron transport. The KVPF/rGO electrode achieves a reversible discharge capacity of 99.0 mAh g −1 at a current density of 50 mA g −1 in the voltage range between 2.0 and 5.0 V. It retains 93.9% of its capacity after 100 cycles and delivers a discharge capacity of 72.6 mAh g −1 at a high current density of 500 mA g −1 , demonstrating good rate capability. The role of rGO in improving charge transfer and minimizing polarization is demonstrated. The flexibility of the 3D-printed electrodes is validated by fabricating soft-pack batteries, which maintain stable performance under mechanical stress, an essential requirement for wearable electronics. The results highlight the large potential of 3D printing technology to enhance the properties and flexibility of potassium-ion batteries and pave the way for future advancements in energy storage devices.

A new material of Ag-SnO 2 /rGO aerogel is fabricated by the sol-gel method and freeze-drying technique. The SnO 2 particles are tightly arranged on the rGO sheets to form a p-n heterojunction , and the rGO aerogel possesses abundant pore structures for effective adsorption. Besides, the Ag particles are dispersed on the surface as a catalyst to improve the internal electron mobility, further promoting the gas-sensing performance. To be noted, the Ag-SnO 2 /rGO aerogel can exhibit a response of 2.13 towards 50 ppm NO 2 at RT instead of heating conditions, and shows a cyclic capacitance property of redox. Moreover, the non-linear growth between gas concentration and response is observed, which proves the chemical adsorption that results in the high selectivity.

Accurate and sensitive detection of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) plays a significant role in medical diagnosis and human health assessment. Herein, an electrochemical sensing platform for ultrasensitive determination of DA was constructed based on porous Co 3 O 4 nanocubes anchored to three-dimensional Ti 3 C 2 MXene-reduced graphene oxide aerogel (Co 3 O 4 /3D MX-rGO). The 3D MX-rGO aerogel with a high specific surface prevents aggregation of Co 3 O 4 nanocubes and exposes more active sites, resulting in excellent electrocatalytic activity and outstanding sensing properties. The electrochemical reaction kinetic was investigated in detail, a possible sensing mechanism was proposed, and the interaction mechanism between the composites and DA was revealed combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Under optimized experimental conditions, the sensor developed using Co 3 O 4 /3D MX-rGO modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) exhibited low detection limits (40 nM) in the range of 0.1–300 μM for DA with good selectivity, reproducibility, and stability. The sensor has been successfully use to detect DA in human serum and urine samples with recoveries of 95.3 %-103.7 %, which has great potential for practical applications.
