The hydrophobic modification of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) was carried out via free radical polymerization using methyl methacrylate (MMA) as the monomer to improve the compatibility between CNF and poly lactic acid (PLA). Followed by the preparation of the novel nanocomposites in combination of the organic montmorillonite and the substrate. The resulting nanocomposites were then coated on paper surface using a cast-coating process in an attempt to improve the barrier properties towards water vapor and oxygen. In addition, the composite films are prepared via a solution casting method. The water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), water vapor permeability (WVP), oxygen transmission rate (OTR), and tensile strength of the as-prepared films were systematically measured. The corresponding results demonstrated that the WVTR, WVP and OTR decreased with the addition of a certain content of MCNF in coatings. 0.2 wt% MCNF is the optimum content, showing the best gas resistance and tensile performance. The lowest value of WVTR and WVP are 10.30 g/(m 2 ⋯24 h) and 3306.58 g⋯μm/(m 2 ⋯24 h) for films with 0.2 wt% MCNF added, which is 88.23% and 26.05% lower than that of PLA composite film without NFC.

Flexible triboelectric generators present a wide range of prospective applications owing to their small size, light weight, and wearability; in addition, they can convert external mechanical energy into electrical energy to provide an energy supply for wearable electronic products. In this study, a wearable textile triboelectric generator was developed by weaving polyurethane (PU) nanofiber core-spun yarn and Si 3 N 4 -electret-doped polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofiber core-spun yarn into a double-layer fabric. Within the double-layer fabric, one layer was Si 3 N 4 -doped PVDF (denoted as Si 3 N 4 @PVDF) nanofiber fabric, and the other was PU nanofiber fabric. When subjected to an external mechanical force, PU nanofiber fabric and Si 3 N 4 @PVDF nanofiber fabric came into contact and were able to convert external mechanical energy into electrical energy. The most notable instantaneous electrical performance of this triboelectric nanogenerator was open circuit voltage of 71 V, short-circuit current of 0.7 μA, and output power of 56 μW. Additionally, the wearable textile triboelectric generator exhibited superior washability, stability, and cycle durability. More significantly, it was capable of driving some low-consumption electronic products, including capacitors, LED bulbs, and digital meters, thereby exhibiting a strong potential for flexible self-powered electronic devices and intelligent textiles .

Cost-effective methods for preparing ZnO nanostructures are of importance for the deployment of ZnO in many applications including n-type conduits, catalysts, nanophosphor, and optoelectronics. Herein, we present a room-temperature sol-gel method with the aid of ultrasonication to prepare white-emitting ZnO nanoparticles (NPs). X-ray diffraction and electron microscopic analyses revealed that the size and shape of ZnO NPs can be controlled simply by changing the concentration of the Zn precursor. The ZnO NPs had a broad photoluminescence emission, ranging from 450 nm to 800 nm, while their composite in PMMA matrix showed an enhancement in the red region induced by ZnO-PMMA interfacial band-bending effects. The results demonstrated herein promise a simple tool for control over size, shape, and emission of ZnO materials for diverse applications.

Cerium has been used as an implanted alloy additive for many years for it can enhance the mechanical properties of the alloy and restrain the corrosion of the implant. Moreover, cerium oxide nanoparticles are often used as an antibacterial material. However, there were few researches focusing on the antibacterial properties of Ce 3+ and Ce 4+ ions, instead of their corresponding oxide, as potential antibacterial coatings. Thus in this work, we loaded Ce ions into the porous structure of the ZIF-8 nanoparticles and co-deposited them with hydroxyapatite as a composite coating onto anodized titanium dioxide nanotubes array in order to test whether it can improve the anti-corrosion and antibacterial properties of the materials without affecting the biocompatibility.

A nanocomposite soft actuator based on porous high-conductivity electrode membrane, which was composed of biopolymer cellulose mixed with chitosan and highly conductive nanoparticles generated by reduced graphene oxide encapsulated multi-walled carbon nanotube, was developed in this paper. No new substance was discovered in the regenerated electrode layer through the scanning analysis from FT-IR and XRD. Actuators exhibited significant enhancement in peak to peak displacement, which was 3.64 times increased than the traditional value at 5 V 0.1 Hz. With the test of solid-state electric double layer capacitor, actuators showed the highest specific capacitance (10.695 F g −1 ) at the current density of 1 A g −1 , the lowest internal resistance (9.2 Ω g −1 ) in the frequency range of 10 5 –10 −2 Hz, and the lowest energy density (901 Wh kg −1 ) at the current density of 10 A g −1 , which demonstrated the absolute advantages in the conductivity and channels for electrons. These findings suggest that research on porous high-conductivity electrode layer holds great promise in the further study of higher performance actuators.

A novel biosensor based on electro-co-deposition of myoglobin (Mb), sodium alginate (SA), Fe 3 O 4 -graphene (Fe 3 O 4 -GR) composite on the carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was fabricated using Nafion as the film forming material to improve the stability of protein immobilized on the electrode surface, and the modified electrode was abbreviated as Nafion/Mb-SA-Fe 3 O 4 -GR/CILE. FT-IR and UV–vis absorption spectra suggested that Mb could retain its native structure after being immobilized in the SA-Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite film. The electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry, and a pair of symmetric redox peaks appeared in the cyclic voltammograms, indicating that direct electron transfer of Mb was realized on the modified electrode, which was ascribed to the good electrocatalytic capability of Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite, the good biocompatibility of SA and the synergistic effects of SA and Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite. The electrochemical parameters of the electron transfer number ( n ), the charge transfer coefficient ( α ) and the electron transfer rate constant ( k
s ) were calculated as 0.982, 0.357 and 0.234 s −1 , respectively. The modified electrode exhibited good electrocatalytic ability to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) with wide linear range from 1.4 to 119.4 mmol/L, low detection limit as 0.174 mmol/L (3 σ ), good stability and reproducibility.

In this paper, a facile bio-templating method is proposed to prepare NiCoP coated on amorphous carbon (NiCoP@AC) composite electrode materials with using bagasse as template and carbon source. NiCoP nanowire network arrays precursors coating on bagasse substrate with high yield were prepared via a novel synthesis strategy utilizing the toluene-water interface reaction process, which subsequently formed as NiCoP@AC composite electrode materials after phosphating process. The assembled core-shell structure attenuated the volume expansion during charging and discharging, additionally, the overall electrical conductivity of the composite was also improved owing to the characteristic of bagasse biochar. The NiCoP@AC electrode exhibited high specific capacitance (1706 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), outstanding rate capability (82.1 % capacity retention from 1 to 20 A g −1 ) and good cycling stability (retaining 80.0 % capacitance over 5000 cycles). In addition, bagasse biomass activated carbon (BAC) was prepared via a typical alkaline activation process for the use as negative electrode. The as-fabricated NiCoP@AC//BAC supercapacitor displayed a high energy density of 46.2 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 807.3 W kg −1 , and an excellent capacitance retention rate (88.5 % after 5000 cycles), suggesting that the as-prepared NiCoP@AC electrode materials have wide application prospects in high-performance supercapacitors.

Zinc (Zn)-based alloys have been considered potential biodegradable materials for medical applications due to their good biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, the insufficient mechanical properties of pure Zn do not meet the requirements of biodegradable implants. In this study, we have developed a biodegradable Zn−3Mg−0.7Mg 2 Si composite fabricated by high-pressure solidification. Microstructural characterization revealed that the high-pressure solidified (HPS) composite exhibited uniformly distributed fine MgZn 2 granules in an α-Zn matrix. Comprehensive tests indicated that the HPS composite exhibited exceptionally high compression properties including a compressive yield strength of 406.2 MPa, an ultimate compressive strength of 1181.2 MPa, and plastic deformation up to 60% strain without cracking or fracturing. Potentiodynamic polarization tests revealed that the HPS composite showed a corrosion potential of −0.930 V, a corrosion current density of 3.5 μA/cm 2 , and a corrosion rate of 46.2 μm/y. Immersion tests revealed that the degradation rate of the HPS composite after immersion in Hanks’ solution for 1 month and 3 months was 42.8 μm/y and 37.8 μm/y, respectively. Furthermore, an extract of the HPS composite exhibited good cytocompatibility compared with as-cast (AC) pure Zn and an AC composite at a concentration of ≤25%. These results suggest that the HPS Zn−3Mg−0.7Mg 2 Si composite can be anticipated as a promising biodegradable material for orthopedic applications .

A sandwich-like structure with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) wrapped MOF-derived ZnCo2O4–ZnO–C polyhedrons on nickel foam as an anode for high performance lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is for the first time reported via simply growing MOFs on Ni foam, and wrapping graphene oxide nanosheets on MOFs, and then annealing under a N2 atmosphere. It should be noted that the MOF-derived porous products are composed of carbon-coated spinel ZnCo2O4–ZnO nanoparticle polyhedrons. When tested as anodes for LIBs, the unique RGO/ZnCo2O4–ZnO–C/Ni sandwich-structured LIB anodes exhibit superior coulombic efficiency, excellent cycling stability and rate capability. The in situ formed carbon layers outside the ZnCo2O4–ZnO act as not only a conductive substrate but also a buffer layer for volume changes. The open pores in ZnCo2O4–ZnO–C polyhedrons provide sufficient electrolyte as well as serve as cushion space to further alleviate volume changes. The RGO nanosheets act as a flexible protector to firmly fix polyhedrons on the Ni foam, as well as a conductive substrate to wire up all the polyhedrons. The interconnected carbon layers and two high conductive substrates (RGO and Ni foam) together form an unhindered highway for charge transfer during discharge/charge processes, promising good electrochemical performance.

The developing sulfide solid electrolyte is a promising way to overcome shuttle effect of polysulfide in the traditional liquid Li-S battery. However, an air stable sulfide solid electrolyte and competitive solid–solid interface structure must be constructed firstly. Herein, we have designed an organic–inorganic multi-scale composite electrolytes to overcome the interfacial issues of solid state Li-S batteries (SSLSBs). The organic–inorganic composite electrolyte consists of a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) and an oxygen doped inorganic sulfide solid electrolyte. The O doped sulfide solid electrolyte improves its chemical stability and suppresses the lithium dendrites. A thin GPE film protects the crystal structural stability during cycles and greatly enhances the performance of O doped sulfide solid electrolyte due to the GPE not only constructs soft interface contact between S cathode and solid electrolyte, but also builds lithium ion transport paths by ionic liquid between them. Those SSLSBs display a very good cycling performance with the specific capacity of 1023 mAh/g after 50 cycles at 60 °C and 541 mAh/g after 150 cycles at 30 °C under same rate of 0.1 C. This study demonstrates that the development of advanced solid-state Li-S battery needs to fully integrate a number of technical advantages.

In the present work, a kind of amine alkyl siloxane N -butyl-N-((1,1,3-trimethyl-3,3-diphenyldisiloxaneyl)methyl)butan-1-amine (BTDMBA) was synthesized and used to capture SO 2 . Its thermal decomposition temperature is 160℃, which is comparable with that of Ionic liquids (ILs), but its viscosity is only 125 mPa∙s at 25℃ after the absorption of SO 2 , which is much lower than that of ILs. The reaction mechanism is that BTDMBA reacted with SO 2 to form charge transfer complex BTDMBA∙SO 2 . The reaction enthalpy and entropy change are −83.95 kJ/mol and −240.48 J·mol −1 ·K −1 , respectively, which are more negative than that of ILs. By comparing the enthalpy and entropy change of amine alkyl siloxane and absorbents reported in literatures, an unexpected entropy enthalpy compensation phenomenon was discovered and the isokinetic temperature was found to be 371 K. Based on this phenomenon and the optimization objective function, it was also found that with the decrease of entropy change, the optimal absorption and desorption temperature difference increased initially and decreased afterwards. The maximum of entropy changes is −201 J·mol −1 ·K −1 for absorbent to achieve recycle absorption capacity 0.79 mol/mol under the condition of absorption pressure 0.002 bar and desorption pressure 1 bar.

The development of metal ion-intercalated active materials for excellent electrochemical performance in rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) is challenging. The structure instability and intrinsic electrostatic repulsion of the lattice framework cause structural breakdown and low-rate performance. In response to these problems, yttrium vanadium oxide–poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT@YVO) composite is reported as stable cathode material for AZIBs. The introduction of PEDOT in YVO nanorods improves the crystalline structure with an enlarged interplanar lattice spacing of 3.4 Å. The PEDOT@YVO composite electrode demonstrates effective electric conductivity and a higher initial specific capacity of 308.5 mAh g −1 than that (125.5 mAh g −1 ) of the pure YVO at 0.2 C rate. It also features a long-term stable discharge–charge cycle performance of 4000 cycles with a capacity retention of 79.2% at 1C rate, better than YVO (29.4 mAh g −1 ). The oxygen vacancies and improved electrical conductivity of the composite account for the invigorated electrochemical performance. Consequently, this work reveals another avenue for constructing unique electrodes to enhance the electrochemical properties of AZIBs.
