Interfacial issues have been the main obstacle to the development of solid-state batteries . In this work, we design a solid hybrid polymer electrolyte based on poly-(ethylene glycol) diacrylate and succinonitrile (PSSE) with a liquid state precursor. An intimate interface between PSSE and Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 @vertical graphene (LTO@VG) electrode with three-dimensional array structure is cleverly constructed by infiltrating fluid precursor of PSSE into vertical pores of LTO@VG followed by polymerization and solidification of PSSE. The quasi-solid-state LTO@VG//PSSE//Li and LiFePO 4 //PSSE//LTO@VG full cells exhibit superior electrochemical performance since the active materials are closely contacted by the conductive skeleton and ion-conductive electrolyte. The LTO@VG//PSSE//Li cells maintain 85.7% capacity retention after 400 cycles at 2 C and the LFP//PSSE//LTO@VG full cells still reach 99.0% capacity retention after 200 cycles at 0.5 C. This novel strategy for interface engineering paves the way for achieving high-performance solid-state batteries.

Poor room-temperature ionic conductivity and lithium dendrite formation are the main issues of solid electrolytes. In this work, rod-shaped alumina incorporation and graphite coating were simultaneously applied to poly (propylene carbonate) (PPC)-based polymer solid electrolytes (Wang et al., 2018). The obtained alumina modified solid electrolyte membrane (Al-SE) achieves a high ionic conductivity of 3.48 × 10 −4 S/cm at room temperature with a wide electrochemical window of 4.6 V. The assembled NCM622/Al-SE/Li solid-state battery exhibits initial discharge capacities of 198.2 mAh/g and 177.5 mAh/g at the current density of 0.1 C and 0.5 C, with the remaining capacities of 165.8 mAh/g and 161.3 mAh/g after 100 cycles respectively. The rod-shaped structure of Al 2 O 3 provides fast transport channels for lithium ions and its Lewis acidity promotes the dissociation of lithium salts and release of free lithium ions. The lithiophilic Al 2 O 3 and Graphite form intimate contact with metallic Li and create fast Li + conductive layers of Li-Al-O layer and LiC 6 layer, thus facilitating the uniform deposition of Li and inhibiting Li dendrite formation during long-term cycling. This kind of composite Al-SE is expected to provide a promising alternative for practical application in solid electrolytes.

Graphite nanosheets coated by LiF/SnO 2 composites are designed to obtain a lithium ion anode material with excellent performance. LiF nanoparticles play a significant role in improving the electrochemical performance by inhibiting electrolyte decomposition and providing excess Li sources during cycling. The obtained LiF@SnO 2 @C electrode shows an outstanding capacity of 951.9 mAhg −1 at 0.2 Ag -1 after 370 cycles and excellent long cycling performance of 650.0 mAhg −1 at 1.0 Ag -1 after 930 cycles. First-principles calculations demonstrate that F-doped SnO 2 (−2211.8 eV) has a lower free energy compared to SnO 2 (−1937.4 eV), resulting in a robust composite architecture that gives rise to high cycling stability.

Herein, we report a simple and attractive self-assembly strategy for preparing graphene oxide–multiwalled carbon nanotube–(1-pyrenemethylamine)–gold (GO–MWCNT–PMA–Au) nanocomposites using 1-pyrenemethylamine (PMA) as a coupling agent. The morphology and composition of the nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Further, a non-enzymatic nitrite sensor was fabricated by immobilizing GO–MWCNT–PMA–Au nanocomposites on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). To obtain the optimal electrochemical experimental conditions, the effects of pH value and the volume of the as-prepared Au nanoparticle suspension were carefully investigated. Its electrochemical sensing properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The electrochemical investigation showed that the GO–MWCNT–PMA–Au nanocomposites exhibited good catalytic performance for the oxidation of nitrite. The nitrite electrochemical sensor presented a wide linear range from 2.0 × 10−6 to 1.0 × 10−2 mol L−1, a high sensitivity of 483.51 μA mM−1 cm−2 and a low detection limit of 0.67 μmol L−1 at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3 (S/N = 3). It also exhibited good anti-interference capability and stability. This paper provides a self-assembly strategy for preparing nanocomposites which are used to construct improved electrochemical sensors.

Reduced graphene oxide functionalized with magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and –PhSO 3 H groups (Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H) was reported for environmentally benign hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, which is an important process in integrated utilization of biomass resource. Except for –PhSO 3 H groups, –COOH and –OH groups derived from graphene oxide (GO) were also expected in the structure of Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H. Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H exhibited outstanding catalytic performance for the hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, due to its crumpling feature with clear layers and the coexistence of –COOH and –OH groups. The unique structure of Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H favors the accessibility of cellulose to the active sites of the material and facilitates the diffusion of the product molecules. –COOH groups on the surface of the material provide a large concentration of acidic functionality for hydrolyzing cellulose, while –OH groups readily adsorb cellulose through forming strong hydrogen bonds between –OH groups and the oxygen atoms in β-1,4 glycosidic bonds. Furthermore, Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H can also be easily separated from the reaction residue with an extra magnetic force and further used at least five times.

Z-scheme Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) photocatalyst was successfully synthesized via a simple three-step approach for 2,2′,4,4′-tretrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE47) reductive removal under simulated solar irradiation. Unlike the traditional heterojunction , the addition of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) enhanced the redox ability of Cu 2 O-TiO 2 by increasing charge transfer. When modifying Cu 2 O films by adding 1% rGO and coating with 70% TiO 2 , the resulting Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity for BDE47 removal. The charge transfers of Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) were proven to follow a Z-scheme pathway through the electron paramagnetic resonance analysis. The degradation pathways of BDE47 were elucidated by identifying intermediate products via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography (GC). Photo-electrons (e − ) generated from the conduction band of Cu 2 O and hydrogen protons (H 0 ) reduced from H + in water were the main contributing elements for the removal of BDE47, which response to the ortho and para debromination . Ortho-Br of BDE47 was attacked by e − and BDE28 was the dominant debromination product on the first stage. Then e − and H 0 attacked ortho-Br and para-Br of BDE28 to form BDE15 and BDE8, respectively. The concentration of BDE8 was higher than that of BDE15, suggesting that H 0 played the most important role on the second debromination stage. An effective Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 )-based Z-scheme system for BDE47 debromination was proposed in this study, which may contribute to the development of novel green technologies.

Laser-induced graphene (LIG) is a highly promising technology for assembling thin-film electronics with miniaturized surficial patterns, although hard to guarantee both high-quality formation of raw materials and high resolution of feature size. In this study, a combined microcontact printing (μCP) and LIG protocol is creatively utilized to fabricate ultra-thin graphene films with highly ordered micro-stripe arrays. In addition to realize various patterned structures with unique scalable and stackable characteristics, PAA concentration (4–8 wt%) is systematically investigated as a critical parameter to precisely control the feature size of micro-patterns before and after the irradiation process, including line width (before: 5.37–22.44 μm, after: 4.83–22.32 μm) and average height (before: 69.81–187.39 nm, after: 5.72–48.61 nm). By further exploring a defocused multi-lasing strategy, sheet resistance of the graphene array could be optimized dramatically from 634.1 kΩ/sq to 1.9 kΩ/sq, while maintaining low ablation (45.38 % porosity) and high carbon content (84.2 wt%). Lastly, the process is demonstrated to assemble different graphene based electronic devices with miniaturized sizes, including liquid sensors with sensitivity of 2.7 % μL −1 and electrothermal heaters with temperature-ramping rate as high as 24.7 °C/s and working temperature as high as 248 °C.

Polymeric positive temperature coefficient (PTC) materials can be used to install “brake” technology for the thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries. However, it still has poor cycle stability and obvious negative temperature coefficient (NTC) effect, which reduces the reliability of the material. In order to solve these problems, conductive polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) modified multilayer graphene (MLG) conductive additive (PEDOT-MLG) is introduced into middle density polyethylene/carbon black (MDPE/CB) system. Compared with the conventional modification, the PEDOT modified MLG shows high conductivity and excellent thermal stability. In addition, the introduction of PEDOT-MLG into MDPE/CB can further reduce the room temperature resistivity due to the good compatibility between the modified graphene and the matrix, thus improving the PTC intensity to 7.1. What is more, MLG limits the re-aggregation of CB particles when the temperature further rises, which effectively weakens the NTC effect.

In order to simultaneously improve the dispersibility of graphene in the bismaleimide (BMI) resin and the interfacial interaction between them, the polytriazine@RGO nanocomposite (PTZ@RGO) with terminal amine was obtained by the method of one-step precipitation polymerization. The PTZ@RGO hybrid nanocomposite was then chosen as filler to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of BMI resin. Through effective surface modification, the compatibility and interface strength between graphene and BMI matrix were significantly improved, leading to the flexural strength , impact strength , anti-friction, wear resistance and thermal stability of PTZ@RGO/BMI composites were significantly improved as compared to those of neat BMI resin and RGO/BMI composites. The other properties including hardness and thermal properties of composites were all improved with increasing amount of PTZ@RGO fillers. These high performance BMI composites have a great potential for application in aerospace, mechanical engineering and other automobile brake devices.

In this article, we constructed an electrochemical sensor for highly sensitive determination of β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) using the poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)-functionalized reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite modified electrode (PDDA-rGO/GCE). The nanocomposite was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform-infrared spectrometry, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The experimental results demonstrated that the fabricated sensor exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity on the oxidation of NADH with a decreased about 200 mV in overpotential and 5.0-fold increment in the oxidation peak current compared to a bare GCE. Applying cyclic voltammetry, a wide linear range from 1.0 × 10 −7 to 2.9 × 10 −3 M with low limit of detection (LOD) of 3.4 × 10 −8 M and high sensitivity of 463.3 μA mM −1 cm −2 were obtained, which was superior to other NADH electrochemical sensors reported previously. Furthermore, the fabricated NADH sensor possessed excellent selectivity, reproducibility, and stability. The oxidation mechanism of NADH at the PDDA-rGO/GCE was also discussed in detail.
A simple NADH sensing platform based on PDDA-rGO composite is constructed, which exhibits an ultra-low detection limit ( 3.4×10-8 M) towards the oxidation of NADH, and the electrochemical reaction mechanism of NADH is discussed in detail.

The development of organic lithium batteries (OLBs) offers a promising opportunity for the advancement of green and sustainable energy storage systems. However, organic cathode materials face challenges in terms of conductivity, electrochemical activity, and dissolution. Here, we address these limitations by introducing a sulfur-linked carbonyl compound called poly(dichlorobenzoquinone sulfide) (PDBS), which is polymerized in situ on reduced graphene oxide by a mixed solvent thermal method. The resulting carbonyl compound electrode materials exhibit favorable properties as organic cathode materials for OLBs. After 4000 cycles at a current density of 1000 mA g −1 , the carbonyl compound electrodes exhibit a discharge capacity of 102 mAh g −1 . This remarkable performance indicates excellent stability and long cycle life, which are crucial for practical applications. These results suggest that PDBS, a designable sulfur-linked carbonyl compound, holds great promise as an effective organic cathode material for OLBs. In addition, this work provides valuable insights into improving the electrochemical performance of organic cathode materials.

A dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent sensing film for metal ion detection is designed. This dual-emission film is successfully prepared from chitosan, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), and gold nanoclusters (Au NCs). Here, it is shown that the g-C 3 N 4 not only serves as the fluorescence emission source, but also enhances the mechanical and thermal stability of the film. Meanwhile, the Au NCs are adsorbed on the surface of chitosan film by the electrostatic interaction. The as-prepared dual-emission film can selectively detect Cu 2+ , leading to the quench of red fluorescence of Au NCs, whereas the blue fluorescence from g-C 3 N 4 persists. The ratio of the two fluorescence intensities depends on the Cu 2+ concentration and the fluorescence color changes from orange red to yellow, cyan, and finally to blue with increasing Cu 2+ concentration. Thus, the as-prepared dual-emission film can be worked as ratiometric sensing paper for Cu 2+ detection. Furthermore, the film shows high sensitivity and selectivity, with low limit of detection (LOD) (10 ppb). It is observed that this novel gold-cluster-based dual-emission ratiometric fluorescent sensing paper is an easy and convenient way for detecting metal ions. It is believed that this research work have created another avenue for the detection of metal ions in the environment.
