In this study, hyperbranched polyethyleneimine-protected silver nanoclusters (hPEI-AgNCs) with excellent electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission in the presence of coreactant K2S2O8 were prepared by chemical reduction of silver ions (silver nitrate) coordinated with dendrigraft polymer, and successfully used for the construction of an ECL immunosensor. Polyaniline (PANI)/polypyrrole (PPy)-silver (Ag) dendrites with good electrical conductivity and biocompatibility were electropolymerized on the surface of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode as carriers. Porous ZnO sphere-loaded hPEI-AgNCs-induced signal amplification strategies were integrated exquisitely and applied sufficiently. Taking carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as an example, under optimal conditions, the CEA concentration was determined to be in the range of 10−3 ng mL−1–100 ng mL−1 and with a detection limit of 0.4 pg mL−1 using this method; it exhibited excellent selectivity, high stability, and acceptable fabrication reproducibility. It was anticipated that hPEI-AgNCs would have promising applications in green, selective, and sensitive detection of target analytes in the future.

The water scarcity crisis in the developing world creates an immediate need for cost-effective, environmentally friendly water treatment methods. Interfacial solar evaporation is one of the promising ways of dealing with this problem using renewable solar energy. The challenge associated with this field is developing an advanced photothermal absorber with capabilities for wide-bandgap solar absorption, efficient water–air interface thermal management, fast capillary water transport, and good stability. Herein, we introduce a cone-shaped photothermal evaporator device based on a combination of plasmonic tantalum nitride (TaN) nanoparticles and a conducting polypyrrole (TaN-PPy) nanocomposite on a hydrophilic cotton surface. The TaN nanoparticles possess a high possibility of absorbing a wide wavelength of light based on localized surface plasmon resonance effects, and the PPy network can support charge transfer, improve interface stability and allow for simple device production by a spray-coating technique. Such a synergistic design leads to a highly efficient evaporation setup. Under 1 sun irradiance of 1 kW m −2 , an excellent evaporation rate of 1.8 kg m −2 h −1 and a high solar-to-vapor conversion efficiency of 84% are obtained for the optimized TaN-PPy fabric. Moreover, it displays high stability in a continuous testing setup and efficiently desalinates simulated seawater, with a reduction in salinity above 99.9%. This work provides a practical and scalable design for efficient, long-term solar desalination and wastewater treatment.

A nickel-cobalt-sulfide nanosheet (Ni-Co-S NS)/polypyrrole nanowire (PPy NW) core/shell-structured composites on nickel foam (NF) was synthesized by facile electrodeposition processes for electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensor. PPy NWs grew on the NF substrate by a potentiostatic deposition method, and then the PPy NWs were further served as skeletons for electrodeposition Ni-Co-S nanosheets. The ternary Ni-Co-S NSs as the shell and PPy NWs as the core on the flexible NF constructed the 3D micro/nano structure. The as-prepared Ni-Co-S/PPy/NF electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). The electrochemical sensor was used for the detection of glucose by chronoamperometry. The introduction of the interconnected Ni-Co-S NSs can provide accessible pathways for electrolyte and have high sensitivity to glucose. Compared with the NF and PPy/NF electrodes, the Ni-Co-S/PPy/NF micro/nanohybrid electrode exhibited higher catalytic activity towards electro-oxidation of glucose. The developed Ni-Co-S/PPy/NF electrode showed two linear electrochemical responses to glucose in the range from 2 μM to 140 μM with a correlation coefficient of R 2 = 0.937 and 0.14 mM to 2 mM with a correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.978, and the detection limit is 0.82 μM. Furthermore, the prepared biosensor demonstrated high selectivity to glucose in the presence of uric acid, ascorbic acid and D-fructose.

Polypyrrole@cellulose fibers (PPy@CFs) electrode materials are promising candidates in the energy storage. Various strategies have been pursued to improve their electrochemical performance. However, the poor conductivity, specific capacitance, and cyclic stability still hindered its application. Compared with the previous studies, we selected AQS with electrochemical activity as a dopant to improve these defects. It exhibits a high capacitance of 829.8 F g−1at a current density of 0.2 A g−1, which is much higher than that of PPy@CFs electrode material (261.9 F g−1). Moreover, the capacitance retention of PPy:AQS/p-PTSA@CFs reaches up to 96.01% after 1000 cycles, indicating superior cyclic stability. Therefore, this work provides an efficient strategy for constructing high-performance electrode materials for energy storage.Keywords:CFs;PPy;AQS;doping effect;electrochemical performance

Two-dimensional layered metal carbides (MXene) have a broad application prospect in electromagnetic absorption, but suffer from poor impedance matching, which limits the absorbing performance. Herein, an efficient nanocomposite absorber was successfully prepared via loading Co-substituted β 2 -keggin-type polyoxometalate doped with polypyrrole and Fe 3 O 4 on the surface of MXene . Polyoxometalate and HCl as a proton acid doped polypyrrole, with anions attached to the main chain, could adjust the electromagnetic parameters, making the nanocomposites material easily achieve the best conductivity and impedance matching; Fe 3 O 4 introduced magnetic loss, and the freedom of movement of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ caused multiple polarization; dipole polarization was induced by defects, dipoles and dangling bonds in nanocomposites; the charge accumulated at the three phase interface and led to interfacial polarization. We had conducted research on the absorbing properties of nanocomposites with different as-prepared unitary to ternary products, loading rates and component proportion. When the filling level was 45 wt%, an optimal reflection loss value of MXene/PPy@β 2 -SiW 11 Co/Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposites at only 1.7 mm reached up to −62.6 dB, and the effective absorption bandwidth of 9 GHz could be obtained at the low thickness range of 1.5–2.9 mm. These results demonstrated that the prepared nanocomposites were expected to be a promising electromagnetic wave absorber with thin thickness and high absorption intensity.

In this paper, a polypyrrole-carbon nanotube hydrogel (PPy-CNT) with 3D macroporous structure was prepared by secondary growth method. This self-supporting material with good conductivity and biocompatibility can be directly used as anode in a microbial fuel cell (MFC). The prepared material had a uniform structure with rich 3D porosity and showed good water retention performance. The effect of the mass ratio of PPy and CNT in the hydrogel were also investigated to evaluate the electrical performance of MFC. The MFC with 10:1 PPy-CNT hydrogel anode could reached the maximum power density of 3660.25 mW/m3 and the minimal electrochemical reaction impedance of anode was 5.06 Ω. The effects of Congo red concentration, external resistance and suspended activated sludge on decolorazation and electricity generation were also investigated in the MFC with the best performance hydrogel. When the Congo red concentration was 50 mg/L and the external resistance was 200 Ω, the dye decolorization rate and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate could reach 94.35% and 42.31% at 48h while the output voltage of MFC was 480 mV. When activated sludge was present, the decolorization rate and COD removal rate could be increased to 99.55% and 48.08% at 48 h. The above results showed that the porous hydrogel anode had broad application prospects in synchronous wastewater treatment and electricity production of MFC.

In recent years, the research of flexible sensors has become a hot topic in the field of wearable technology, attracting the attention of many researchers. However, it is still a difficult challenge to prepare low-cost and high-performance flexible sensors by a simple process. Three-dimensional spacer fabric (SF) are the ideal substrate for flexible pressure sensors due to its good compression resilience and high permeability (5747.7 mm/s, approximately 10 times that of cotton). In this paper, Thermoplastic polyurethane/Polypyrrole/Polydopamine/Space Fabric (TPU/PPy/PDA/SF) composite fabrics were prepared in a simple in-situ polymerization method by sequentially coating polydopamine (PDA) and Polypyrrole (PPy) on the surface of SF, followed by spin-coating of different polymers (thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and Ecoflex) on the PPy/PDA/SF surface. The results showed that the TPU/PPy/PDA/SF pressure sensors prepared by spin-coating TPU at 900 rpm at a concentration of 0.3 mol of pyrrole monomer (py) and a polymerization time of 60 min have optimum sensing performance, a wide working range (0–10 kPa), high sensitivity (97.28 kPa−1), fast response (60 ms), good cycling stability (>500 cycles), and real-time motion monitoring of different parts of the body (e.g., arms and knees). The TPU/PPy/PDA/SF piezoresistive sensor with high sensitivity on a highly permeable spacer fabric base developed in this paper has promising applications in the field of health monitoring.Keywords:space fabric;Polypyrrole (PPy);piezoresistive sensors;thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) coating

Covalent bond usually ensures a stable connection between nonmetallic atoms. However, the traditional reflux method usually requires the construction of complex instruments and equipment with tedious steps to ensure airtightness and reaction stability. In this work, an advanced method is adopted to bind core–shell CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy and rGO tightly via the aid of 2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethanamine (PyEA), dispense with a high-temperature environment or protective gas . Cobalt ferrite core and polypyrrole shell collaborate to approach suitable magnetic and conduction loss, while reduced graphene oxide usually provides a stable sheet structure for interface multiple reflections, and replenish the insufficient dielectric loss. The filled biscuit-shaped covalently bond CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy-rGO has a fantastically broad absorption bandwidth of 13.12 GHz under the thickness of 3.6 mm, together with a minimum reflection loss of −50.1 dB at 6.56 GHz, achieving both impedance matching and attenuation matching, and effectively responding to all electromagnetic waves in the X and Ku bands. Thus, the covalently bonded CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy-rGO has potential application in broadband absorption.

Transition metal phosphides have shown Pt-like hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity in acid and alkaline solution, while their HER performance in neutral-pH is really poor owing to the high resistance and inefficient mass transfer in neutral-pH electrolyte. In this work, the well-arranged core/shell PSS-PPy/Ni-Co-P growing on Cu foil, in which Ni-Co-P is the core and the mixed polymer of pyrrole and sodium polystyrene sulfonate is the shell, has been demonstrated to be a highly efficient electrocatalyst for HER in neutral-pH electrolyte. The PSS-PPy/Ni-Co-P/CF self-supporting electrode was easily synthesized by electrodeposition and chemical deposition at room temperature. According to the experiment and DFT calculation results, PSS-PPy not only improves the conductivity and hydrophilicity of Ni-Co-P, but also optimizes the electronic structure of Ni-Co-P. Thus, the PSS-PPy/Ni-Co-P shows remarkable HER activity with only overpotential of 106 and 67 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm −2 in neutral-pH and alkaline electrolytes, respectively. Furthermore, PSS-PPy/Ni-Co-P has excellent stability in neutral-pH, alkaline electrolytes and even seawater. The current surface modification method directs us to design more low-cost, high-efficiency and stable electrocatalysts for HER in neutral-pH electrolyte.

With rapid advances in the portable electronics industry, the creation of microwave absorbing materials with high-performance to dissipate the unwanted electromagnetic wave is an important prerequisite. Herein, unique ternary organic-inorganic composites (C/Ni/PPy) were fabricated by hydrothermal method combined with in-situ polymerization approach. The correlation between structure, components, and microwave absorption capability is investigated in detail. The carbon matrix was prepared through a typical “carbonization-activation” procedure. Then, the PPy particles were decorated on the surface of the biomass carbon matrix incorporated with Ni particulates via an in-situ polymerization method. The microwave absorbing results suggest that the C/Ni/PPy ternary composites exhibit stronger dielectric loss and microwave absorption capabilities than C/PPy binary composites. A reflection loss of − 42.09 dB and an outstanding effective absorption bandwidth of 5.24 GHz are achieved simultaneously with a thickness of only 2.4 mm. The excellent microwave absorbing performances can be ascribed to the unique microstructure, enhanced polarization and the synergistic effects between dielectric loss and magnetic loss. The present work achieves a new paradigm to improve microwave absorption characteristics through the combination of dielectric components with magnetic materials. Furthermore, a prototype is proposed, which has broad application prospects for applications in next-generation wearable and portable electronics.

The one-dimensional hollow nanostructure can effectively decrease the diffusion distance of lithium ions and alleviate the volume change of SnO 2 during cycling. In this work, SnO 2 /ZnO hollow nanotubes were obtained from two different molecular weights of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) by combining electrospinning technology and heat treatment. Mechanism studies indicated the hollow nanotubes with different morphology could be controllable by varying the molecular weight of PVP. SnO 2 /ZnO nanotubes with high molecular weight PVP as precursor (SnO 2 /ZnO–H) had smaller diameter and denser structure, which as anode showed better stability and capacity in electrochemical test. The conductivity and stability of SnO 2 /ZnO–H were further improved after coated with Polypyrrole (PPy) by the in-situ polymerization. The reversible capacity of the batteries was improved, and the volume expansion of the metal oxide was restrained during charging and discharging. The SnO 2 /ZnO@PPy anode exhibited a high discharge capacity of 626.1 mA h g −1 of 0.2C after 100 cycles, showing an outstanding stability. Therefore, controllable hollow metal oxide nanotubes structures could be obtained via different the molecular weights of precursor polymer. And the hollow nanotubes after coating by PPy as anode materials exhibited the excellent electrochemical performance . This research provided an idea in further design and optimization of anode microstructure for lithium-ion batteries.

The immobilization of uranium in nuclear wastewater is of paramount importance for environmental and human health. However, there is a paucity of research on the immobilization of uranium in alkaline wastewater, particularly with regards to the application of novel electrodes. This article presents the utilization of an electrochemically polymerized polypyrrole stainless steel (PPy-SUS304) electrode for the effective electrochemical deposition and removal of uranium from alkaline wastewater containing uranium. According to the electrodeposition results, the uranium deposition efficiency of the novel electrode reached 96.82 %, with a uranium deposition rate of 0.048 mg U/(h·cm 2 ) and a charge efficiency of 0.055 mg U/C. These findings demonstrate the successful electrochemical reduction of UO 2 (CO 3 ) 3 4- in alkaline uranium-containing wastewater using the novel electrode, resulting in improved charge deposition efficiency. The electrode surface products were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The SEM and EDS results demonstrate the formation of a uniform PPy film on the surface of SUS304. In addition, the White light interferometer (WLI) test reveals that the PPy-SUS304 electrode exhibits increased roughness compared to the SUS304 electrode. The XPS results revealed that the electrode surface products of PPy-SUS304 were actually U compounds constituted of U(IV) oxides or hydroxides. This study provides a new perspective for the development of novel electrodes to suppress side reactions and efficiently recover uranium from alkaline uranium-containing wastewater.
