Covalently immobilized silica-supported acetylacetonate dichloride palladium(II) precatalyst is prepared by the reaction of silica particles grafted acetylacetonate ligand further exchange with [Et 4 N] 2 PdCl 4 . The silica-supported catalyst is used in slurry polymerizations of norbornene (NB) to afford a highly productive NB addition polymerization system in combination with B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 cocatalyst. It exhibits productivity of 84 kg of PNB (mol Pd) −1 h −1 at the initial activity, and the catalyst deactivation kinetics in the early stage of polymerization are fitted well by the first-order deactivation kinetics. The obtained vinyl-type polynorbornene is confirmed to be nanosilica hybrid PNB nanocomposite by SEM, TEM with an energy dispersive spectrometer, TGA, and XRD.

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.

Composite membrane separators are fabricated by coating one side of microporous polyethylene membrane with poly(methyl methacrylate) modified titanate nanoparticles that are synthesized through emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization of methacrylate-functionalized titanate nanoparticles. The formed composite membrane separators exhibit great thermal-shrinking resistance due to the introduction of thermal resistant titanate nanoparticles. After immersed into electrolyte solution, the swelling poly(methyl methacrylate) microspheres leads to the formation of gel electrolyte, thus stabilizing the electrolyte. Moreover, the porous structure of the coated layer can facilitate the swelling of electrolyte and the transport of lithium ions. The thus-assembled lithium ion battery shows an improved cycle performance and rate capability.

Wide-bandgap photovoltaics (WBPV) could not only provide electrical energy by photoelectronic conversion of the invisible part of the solar spectrum, but also usually had the unique advantage of high open circuit voltage ( V oc). In this work, we reported a novel HTM based on tetrakis (N-phenothiazine) Spirobifluorene (Spiro-PT), its HOMO energy level could be well matched with MAPbBr 3 perovskite HOMO energy level. This HTM could effectively suppress nonradiative recombination, which leads to an increase in the photovoltage of WBPV to more than 1.41 V. As a result, the n-i-p mesoscopic structured WBPV achieved a champion PCE of 7.36% as well as excellent operational stability exhibiting 91% of initial efficiency after 500 h continuous illumination without encapsulation. Based on the high V oc of the MAPbBr 3 /Spiro-PT device, the photovoltaic electrochromic device showed a response speed (the average coloring time was 40 s and the bleaching time was 272 s) and high average visible light transmittance contrast (about 37% in 450–780 nm), the corresponding electrochromic device with maximum dynamic contrast up to 46% at 600 nm between bleached and colored states. This WBPV-powered electrochromic system could provide a pathway towards stand-alone smart window technique for future energy-saving buildings.

A plasmon-enhanced upconversion composite Y 2 O 3 :Er/Au@TiO 2 (SYE/A@T) with a three-dimensional starlike morphology is prepared and then mixed with submicron TiO 2 (200 nm) to form a multifunctional scattering layer in TiO 2 -based dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In such starlike micronsized upconverter, Au nanoparticle-assisted plasmon effect can intensify the upconversion emission of Y 2 O 3 :Er, and simultaneously TiO 2 coating can improve the charge transport within SYE/A@T. Therefore, the SYE/A@T shows extended light-absorbing range to near-infrared region and improved light-scattering ability, leading to an improved photovoltaic performance of DSSCs. With the optimum mixing ratio, a conversion efficiency of 8.62% is attained, which is a significant improvement of 27.6% compared with the cell without adding SYE/A@T. Our work provides a feasible strategy to prepare an upconversion composite with plasmon-enhanced emission and enable this composite to accommodate the DSSCs system and improve the conversion efficiency of DSSCs.

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.

Manufacturing complexity and poor machinability hinder the preparation of complex-shaped ceramic composites. Three-dimensional printing can overcome this difficulty. Herein, we report a type of photocurable preceramic resin containing SiO 2 nanoparticles (up to 20 wt% of polymer), which do not affect the photocurability of the preceramic resin, and a small amount of SiC nanofibres (1 wt%). We successfully printed precise green bodies with a complex shape by digital light processing and converted them into ceramic composites via pyrolysis at 1300 °C under a N 2 atmosphere. The introduction of SiO 2 and SiC into the ceramic composites led to reduced weight loss of the composites during pyrolysis and a decrease in their porosity and enhancement in their mechanical properties after pyrolysis. The properties of the printed samples pyrolysed at different ramping rates were compared, and the effects of the microstructure on the mechanical properties of the composites were investigated.

We prepare the mesoporous polythiophene–WO 3 film through in situ polymerization which is initiated by WO 3 , and fabricate the electrochromic device with the composite film. The influences of the electrolyte ions, film morphologies and counter electrode on the electrochromism of the devices are explored by UV–Vis transmittance spectra and cyclic voltammetry tests. With the aim to enhance the contrast optical transmittance, we develop the binary composite electrolytes of LiClO 4 and N(C 4 H 9 ) 4 ClO 4 solution which can promote intercalation/deintercalation process. Besides that, we use polyethylene oxide as pore-forming agent on the polythiophene–WO 3 films, so that it will be easier for electrolyte ions to diffuse in the porous film. A NiO layer also has a complementary effect on the cathodic coloration films and increases the contrast optical transmittance remarkably. Equipped with the binary electrolyte and the NiO layer as the counter electrode, the film device exhibits high performance with the contrast optical transmittance (ΔT) of 62 % and the coloration efficiency of 212.6 cm 2 /C.

A porous composite electrode composed of diatomite-mixed 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NTCDA) is prepared by electrostatic spinning technology. Compared with traditional coated electrodes without diatomite mixing, the obtained composite electrode materials have higher porosity, larger specific surface area and faster lithium ion transport channels, which makes them exhibit better electrochemical performance, such as smaller impedance, higher capacity, and better cycling stability and rate performance. The electrospun diatomite-mixed 1,4,5,8-NTCDA composite (ED-1,4,5,8-NTCDA) electrode shows an initial coulombic efficiency of 77.2%, which is much higher than that of the electrospun 1,4,5,8-NTCA (E-1,4,5,8-NTCDA) electrode without diatomite mixing (63.8%) and the coated 1,4,5,8-NTCA (C-1,4,5,8-NTCDA) electrode (48.3%). Moreover, the ED-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode displays an initial discharge capacity of 1106.5 mA h g−1, which is much higher than that of the E-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode (546.0 mA h g−1) and the C-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode (185.4 mA h g−1). After 200 cycles, the capacity of the ED-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode remains at 1008.5 mA h g−1 with a retention ratio of 91.2%, which is also much higher than that of 753.2 mA h g−1 for the E-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode and 288.1 mA h g−1 for the C-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode. Even at a higher current density of 1500 mA g−1, its capacity remains above 508.9 mA h g−1. The ED-1,4,5,8-NTCDA electrode presents superior performance, which opens up a promising new approach for further utilization of organic materials as electrode materials in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.

Single-crystalline AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets have been successfully fabricated by facile hydrothermal method without any surfactants. Subsequently, Ag/AgBr-grafted AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets were synthesized by the in situ photoreduction of AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites prepared by a deposition–precipitation method. Under visible light irradiation. The Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites exhibit a strong absorbance in the visible region because of the surface plasmon resonance absorption of Ag nanocrystals. Compared with bare AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets, Ag/AgBr nanoparticles and Ag/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites, a dramatic enhancement in the degradation rate of tetracycline (TC) is observed over the Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites. The immense enhancement of the photocatalytic activity is attributed to the extended absorption in the visible-light region, effective charge separation, and synergistic enhancement induced by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the heterostructured Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 . This study provides new insight into the fabrication of highly efficient and stable ternary metal molybdate based plasmonic photocatalysts and facilitates their practical application to solve environmental issues. The mechanism for the photodegradation of TC over Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 is discussed in detail.

TiO 2 nanocrystals are widely used in photoanodes for quantum dot solar cells (QDSCs) owing to their chemical stability and suitable energy band structure. However, surface defects and grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanocrystals photoanodes allow high surface charge recombination, which limits the performance of QDSCs. In this work, an ultrathin TiO 2 layer is introduced to the surface of TiO 2 photoanodes by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The ultrathin layer not only reduces the surface defects of TiO 2 nanoparticles and strengthens the connection between adjacent nanoparticles to suppress the charge recombination for improving the electron collection efficiency (η cc ), but also increases the surface energy of photoanodes to load more quantum dots (QDs) for enhancing the light harvesting efficiency (LHE). As a result, the solar cell based on CdS/CdSe QDs with ALD treatment exhibits an efficiency of 5.07% that is much higher than that of the cells without modification (4.03%).

Perovskite has shown attractive optoelectronic performances and is a potential material in lighting, anti-counterfeiting, sensor, and other optoelectronic devices. Recently, spin-coating has been widely used in fabricating high-performance perovskite films, but it is difficult to process and apply in practice. In this paper, the CsPbBr 3 /Cs 4 PbBr 6 composite perovskite quantum dots with photoluminescence quantum yield of 36% and high storage stability were prepared by using room temperature ligand-assisted precipitation method and controlling the proportion of CsBr/PbBr 2 . In addition, the composite perovskite was ground and dispersed in the inks system. After adjusting the composition and ratio of the resin components, the inks were suitable for screen printing with a viscosity of 2439 mPa•s, an initial dryness of 25 mm/30 s, and a thorough dryness of 100 s/100 μm. By printing, the perovskite films exhibited high coverage, strong green emission, and outstanding fluorescence recovery ability after exposure to water. Screen printing perovskite inks have the characteristic of being patternable, which provides a solution for preparing a perovskite film in the application.
