In this study, W-(Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 composite powders are fabricated by means of a combination of wet chemical method and spark plasma sintering. We systematically study the sintering and densification behavior of W-(Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 composite powders at different temperatures and pressures. The results indicate that ultrafine tungsten-based composites with a dispersed distribution of (Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 particles can be achieved under optimized temperature and pressure conditions. The optimized pressure and sintering temperature for W-(Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 composites are identified to be 75 MPa and 1600 °C, respectively. In addition, the surface damage behavior of W-(Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 composites induced by the laser thermal shock and helium ion irradiation are also investigated. It is shown that the presence of holes greatly enlarges the helium retention during helium ion irradiation and promotes the melting caused by local overheating during laser thermal shock. We find that the fine-dispersed distribution of (Y 0.9 La 0.1 ) 2 O 3 particles in the tungsten-based composites can effectively improve the resistance of helium ion irradiation and laser thermal shock. We hope that these findings could provide some guidance and reference for the fabrication of large-sized tungsten-based materials in fusion engineering.

A new nanocomposite was prepared by combining Magnesium silicate hydroxide (MSH) with decomposed gelatin under one-pot hydrothermal synthesis conditions. The chemical reaction process involved the MSH formation and the gelation decomposing into carbonaceous species. The characterization of resultant nanoparticles revealed that the nanocomposite was a combination of hydrogenated amorphous carbon and MSH. And the addition of gelatin during synthesis increased the content of granular nanoparticles in nanocomposite samples. The results of tribological experiments of MSH modified by carbon (MSH@C) as lubricant additive showed that the nanocomposites presented much better anti-wear property and friction stability than the MSH without modification. Thus MSH@C nanocomposites were expected to be a promising candidate for lubricant additives. The amorphous carbon film was detected on the wear scar which might account for the significant tribological property.

Solid-state electrolytes with high ionic conductivity , large electrochemical window, good mechanical properties , and easy processability are needed for high-energy solid-state lithium batteries . In this work, composite membranes consisting of lithium garnet (i.e. Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 , LLZTO) particles and Li-salt-free polyethylene oxides (PEOs) are produced as solid-state electrolytes. Li-ion-conducting particles in nano-scale are crucial for the enhancement of conductivity and the membranes containing ~40 nm LLZTO particles exhibit conductivities nearly two orders of magnitude larger than those with the micro-scale ones, which is attributed to the difference in specific surface area related to the percolation effect. Compared to the conventional PEO doped with lithium salt, the insulating PEO in PEO:LLZTO membrane electrolyte is conducive to the suppression of lithium dendrite growth owing to prohibition of current flow. With PEO:LLZTO membrane electrolytes in conductivity of 2.1×10 −4 S cm −1 at 30 °C and 5.6×10 −4 S cm −1 at 60 °C, the solid-state LiFePO 4 /PEO:LLZTO/Li and LiFe 0.15 Mn 0.85 PO 4 /PEO:LLZTO/Li cells deliver energy densities of 345 Wh kg −1 (662 Wh L −1 ) and 405 Wh kg −1 (700 Wh L −1 ) (without the package weight or volume) with good rate capability and cycling performance. This study suggests that the conjunction of nano-scale Li-ion-conducting particles and an insulating polymer provides a promising solution to produce powerful solid-state electrolytes for high-performance solid-state lithium batteries .

Polysiloxane/polyacrylate (PSi/PA) core/shell latexes are fabricated, and the particle morphology, the film structure, as well as the properties of the latex films are investigated by comparing with blend latexes, and the relationship between structure and property is proposed. Results indicate that the structure and property of the latex films heavily depend on the particle morphology. The sea–island latex films with uniform distribution of PSi phases can be formed from the PSi/PA core/shell latexes, and with the mass ratio from 1:1 to 1:4, their tensile strength and elongation at break are close to the pure PA latex film, while the elastic recovery and water vapor permeability improve notably. It is found that the phase segregation occurs in the blend latex films, and although the blend latex films provide better water vapor breathability, their mechanical properties sacrifice obviously. Therefore, the various properties must be balanced for practical applications and the core/shell latexes are competitive for meeting the balanced requirements. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Transitional metal phosphides (TMPs) anode materials usually have large volume change and weak diffusion kinetics, leading to poor cycle stability. Combining TMPs with conductive carbon matrix has been widely used to boost sodium storage. However, it still needs to make efforts in the rational and facile design of nano/micro-structural TMPs/carbon hybrid anode material. Herein, a MOFs-derived strategy is developed to synthesize porous yolk–shell MoP/Cu 3 P@carbon microcages (MoP/Cu 3 P@C) through in situ and confined phosphidation reaction as a high-performance sodium-ion batteries anode. This yolk–shell structure can offer adequate internal space to buffer the large volume expansion, shorten diffusion distance, and create more active sites of Na + . Especially, the Cu nanoparticles generated from Cu 3 P have remarkable electronic conductivity of 5.7 × 10 7 S m −1 (the second most conductive metal) to benefit transporting electrons. And the introduction of Mo (MoP has high theoretical capacity of 633 mA h g −1 ) can enhance the reversible capacity of the whole anode material. Therefore, these porous yolk–shell MoP/Cu 3 P@carbon microcages possess excellent reversible capacity of 307.8 mA h g −1 at 1.0 A g −1 and extraordinary cycle stability of 132.1 mA h g −1 at 5.0 A g −1 even after 6000 cycles.

The interface performance of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polymer composites (CFRPs) is one of the key factors that affect their properties. In order to improve the interface adhesion between CF and epoxy (EP), a green method is proposed. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and graphene oxide (GO) are introduced to the CF surface through the hydrogen bonds, and they can form high micromechanical interlocking composite architectures, which can enhance the micromechanical interaction in the interface of CF and EP. It is found that CMC and GO can significantly improve the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) and interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of EP/CF composite. This means that it has great potential to improve the interface of CFRPs and strengthen their performance by natural cellulose fibers. This modification method does no harm to CF and is environmental friendliness, which lays a research foundation for using natural cellulose to enhance the interface performance of CFRPs.

Strontium ferrites/graphene (SrFe12O19/G) composites were synthesized by a facile one-step surfactant assisted hydrothermal method. The structure, magnetic properties and electromagnetic parameters of the as-prepared composites were evaluated. Uniform SrFe12O19 nanoparticles with a diameter of 60–70 nm were well distributed on the graphene. The formation of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles and the reduction of graphene oxide were accomplished simultaneously. The re-stacking of graphene sheets and the aggregation of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were inhibited. The as-obtained composites exhibited better absorbing properties than the pristine SrFe12O19 particles due to the synergistic effect of SrFe12O19 and graphene. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of SrFe12O19/G composites with the thickness of 3 mm reached −34.8 dB at 13.6 GHz, and the effective absorption bandwidth (RL < −10 dB) was 5.7 GHz. However, the minimum RL of the SrFe12O19 particles only reached −13.5 dB, and the effective absorption bandwidth was 4.6 GHz. A possible mechanism for the enhanced absorbing performance was proposed.

Potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) are becoming one of the promising alternative metal-ion battery systems to lithium-ion batteries due to the abundance and low cost of potassium . Among the anode materials for the metal-ion battery systems, phosphorus-based materials are attractive due to the low cost and their high theoretical-specific capacity. Herein, for the first time, we report the selenium -phosphorous-carbon (Se–P–C) amorphous composites prepared by the plasma-assisted ball milling method as the high-performance anode material for PIBs. In particular, when the amorphous Se–P composite anode with the molar ratio of 1:2 and the P-milling time of 30 h (Se–2P/C@30 h), the associated PIB delivers a high reversible capacity of 634 mA h g −1 at a current density of 0.05 A g −1 and excellent rate capability of 248.6 mA h g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 . Furthermore, the experimental characterization and analysis reveal the reaction mechanisms that K–P (K 2 P 3 ) and K–Se (KSe) phases are formed during the potassiation process. The present work provides a facile approach to achieve a promising anode material for K-ion batteries, and the preparation route can be viewed as a reference for the further development of phosphorous-based anodes with high capacity and long cycle life for PIBs.

In this study, a Ti 3 C 2 nanomaterial and Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE (ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene) nanocomposites were prepared. The morphology, structure and properties of the Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE nanocomposites were investigated. The results indicate that Ti 3 C 2 nanoparticle can improve the thermal and mechanical properties of UHMWPE . The crystallinity and hardness of the Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE nanocomposite increase with the content of Ti 3 C 2 . The tensile and breaking strengths of the nanocomposites are enhanced with increasing Ti 3 C 2 content and reach maximum values at a mass fraction of 0.75 wt.%. The creep performance is enhanced after the addition of Ti 3 C 2 to the matrix. The frictional properties of the Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE composites were investigated using a pin-on-disc tester. The Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE composites exhibited a better friction-reducing performance compared with pure UHMWPE . The addition of Ti 3 C 2 can reduce the adhesive wear and plow friction, which results in the worn surfaces of the Ti 3 C 2 /UHMWPE composite being smoother than those of pure UHMWPE.

A system of 2LiH–MgB2 and its hydrogenated 2LiBH4–MgH2 is an attractive candidate for hydrogen storage. However, its hydriding–dehydriding kinetics have to be further improved for practical application. In the present work, three kinds of Ni–B nanoparticles with different crystalline states and particle sizes were prepared by wet-chemical reduction and mechanochemical methods, and then introduced into a 2LiH–MgB2 composite for catalytic enhancement. The catalytic roles of Ni–B nanoparticles on the hydriding–dehydriding properties were investigated systematically. The results show that all of the Ni–B nanoparticles can significantly enhance the hydriding–dehydriding kinetics of the 2LiH–MgB2 composite, resulting in no incubation period for the formation of MgB2 during dehydrogenation. The more disordered the amorphous structure and the smaller sized the Ni–B particles are, the better the catalytic effect that is obtained. Microstructure analyses clearly reveal the formation of the MgNi3B2 phase in the dehydriding process, which acts as the nucleation agent for MgB2 formation determined by an edge-to-edge model. Directly doping with Ni–B nanoparticles in the 2LiH–MgB2 system shows a higher hydrogen desorption capacity of 9.4 wt% and obtains a better catalytic efficiency than doping with NiCl2.

The bimodal distribution of tungsten grain size, which is also called bimodal structure, is a universal phenomenon in synthesizing tungsten based nanopowders by wet chemical method , and could significantly deteriorate further sintering characteristics of the powders. In this paper, W-Y 2 O 3 composite nanopowders with small grain size and no bimodal structure were synthesized by an improved wet chemical method. It was found that reaction conditions, especially the hydrogen ion concentration(ρ(H + )) could significantly influence the microstructure and morphology of the prepared composite nanopowders and has an optimum value of approximately 0.16 mol L −1 . W-Y 2 O 3 composite nanopowders synthesized under this optimum value got not only the minimum average grain size, which is about 17 nm, but also the best grain size uniformity with no bimodal structure. The microstructure of co-deposited precursors and prepared powders was analyzed in detail to figure out the specific influence mechanism of ρ(H + ), and it was indicated that ρ(H + ) could influence the microstructure and the Y 2 O 3 content of the reduced powders through affecting the fraction of precursor that has little yttrium content, which may lead to the bimodal distribution of tungsten grain size of the prepared powders. Furthermore, the formation mechanism of bimodal structure was systematically analyzed and a feasible method was proposed to eliminate the bimodal structure. It is suggested that the bimodal distribution of tungsten grain size is attributed to the distribution of Y 2 O 3 during hydrogen reduction process and can be well avoided by controlling ρ(H + ).

A new organic-inorganic composite coating was generated on AZ31 alloy surface with sol-gel method to improve the anti-corrosion performance and biocompatibility of AZ31 alloy in the physiological environment. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization , pH variations in modified-simulated body fluid (m-SBF) demonstrated that the silane/Mg(OH) 2 composite coating significantly enhanced the anti-corrosion ability and slowed down the degradation of AZ31 alloy under in vitro condition. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that the major composition of in-situ formation layer was Mg(OH) 2 . The surface morphology , chemical and phase constitutions of the composite coating were detected using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrated that the composite coating was uniform and defect-free. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) was also employed to characterize the corrosion products of all specimens immersed in m-SBF after 30 days. MTT and ALP tests indicated that the composite coating greatly enhanced the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts on the AZ31 alloy surface.
