Construction of high sulfur loading electrode is one of the effective ways to achieve high specific energy density lithium/sulfur batteries. Therefore, the optimization of polymeric binders has been considered as effective strategy to improve the volume changes of sulfur electrodes during charge/discharge processes. In this work, an effective route for the preparation of three dimensional polymeric binder (PAA-PANI) via multiple hydrogen bonds was developed and fabricated through in situ polymerization between polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyaniline (PANI), which possess bifunctional effects on high sulfur loading cathodes in lithium/sulfur batteries. The carboxyl polar groups of PAA could effectively adsorb polysulfides and the conductive PANI enhance the electronic conductivity of the sulfur electrode. The three dimensional polymeric binder of PAA-PANI has enhanced the active material adhesion, mechanical properties and electronic conductivity, which decreased overpotential polarization, improved the lithium ions diffusion coefficient, and reduced the self-discharge. More importantly, the PAA-PANI functional binder could alleviate the expansion of high sulfur loading electrode. Taking advantages of PAA-PANI binder, the carbon nanotubes modified sulfur electrode (CNTs@S; sulfur content: 84.3 wt%) with PAA-PANI binder exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 906 mAh g –1 at 2.56 mA cm –2 (0.3 C) under a sulfur loading of 5.1 mg cm –2 . Even at higher current density of 8.54 mA cm –2 (1 C), the PAA-PANI binder electrode delivers a high capacity of 846 mAh g –1 . Moreover, with an extremely high areal sulfur loading of 17 mg cm –2 , the cathode shows an areal specific capacity of 16.7 mAh cm –2 .

Recently, we have constructed a high strength and thermoplastic supramolecular poly( N -acryloyl glycinamide) (PNAGA) hydrogel which can be developed as printable bioinks. However, the PNAGA hydrogel is low in stiffness and toughness, potentially limiting its application as load-bearing soft tissue scaffolds. In this work, we fabricate a supramolecular polymer double-network hydrogel based on hydrogen bonding crosslinked PNAGA and Fe 3+ -coordination crosslinked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The combined hydrogen bonding and ionic crosslinks contribute to high-strength nonswellable PNAGA/CMC-Fe hydrogels (Tensile strength of 2.9 MPa and compressive strength of 7.3 MPa at 80% strain without fracture) and stiffness (Young's modulus of 1.2 MPa and compressive modulus of 1.5 MPa). Furthermore, these reversible double physical crosslinks enable the PNAGA/CMC-Fe hydrogels to dissipate energy efficiently with a high toughness (12.3 MJ m −3 ) and tear energy (3700 J m −2 ), meanwhile imparting self-recoverability, anti-fatigue ability and self-healability to the network. This cytocompatible supramolecular polymer double network hydrogel with excellent multifaceted mechanical performances are promising to exploited as load-bearing soft tissue engineering scaffolds .

In this paper, novel hydrogen-bonded metal-complex frameworks MPM-1-TIFSIX and HOF-21 were selected as adsorbents to adsorb iodine. MPM-1-TIFSIX and HOF-21 were prepared by layering method and mixed stirring method, respectively. The structures of the two HOFs were characterized in detail by XRD , BET, TGA and FT-IR. The adsorption behavior and adsorption capacity of MPM-1-TIFSIX and HOF-21 for iodine were investigated in detail. The experimental data showed that the equilibrium adsorption amounts of MPM-1-TIFSIX and HOF-21 were 205.51 mg/g and 172.86 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption process of MPM-1-TIFSIX was conformed to be pseudo-second-order kinetic, while the adsorption process of HOF-21 was conformed to be pseudo-first-order kinetic. The results indicated that HOFs could be used as iodine capture and storage materials.

Inkjet printability of dye-based inks including stability, jetting morphology, and color performance is difficult to maintain due to the strong dye molecular interaction. Herein, carboxyl-rich polymer nanospheres were introduced to the dye-based inks, forming a novel kind of multilayer dye/polymer nanospheres to enhance the inkjet printability. Disperse dyes were firstly loaded into poly (styrene-butyl acrylate-methacrylate) nanospheres at 95 °C, and then encapsulated by poly (styrene-methacrylate) polymer layer through seed polymerization to form multilayer structure. The results showed that hydrogen bonds were formed between disperse dyes and nanospheres, and the interaction was enhanced when more carboxyl groups were polymerized on nanosphere surface. Moreover, due to the high surface carboxyl group content, the stability was significantly improved in comparison with disperse dye suspension. After inkjet printing , the dye/nanosphere dispersion showed more stable droplet formation and higher color depth. Besides, because of the self-curing ability of polymer nanospheres, satisfactory fastness was obtained for practical application. The results from this study can promote the optimization of dye-based ink formulations, and show great potential in obtaining high quality inkjet printing products.

The self-healing solid polymer electrolytes (SHSPEs) can spontaneously eliminate mechanical damages or micro-cracks generated during the assembly or operation of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), significantly improving cycling performance and extending service life of LIBs. Here, we report a novel cross-linked network SHSPE (PDDP) containing hydrogen bonds and dynamic disulfide bonds with excellent self-healing properties and non-flammability. The combination of hydrogen bonding between urea groups and the metathesis reaction of dynamic disulfide bonds endows PDDP with rapid self-healing capacity at 28 °C without external stimulation. Furthermore, the addition of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (EMIMTFSI) improves the ionic conductivity (1.13 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at 28 °C) and non-flammability of PDDP. The assembled Li/PDDP/LiFePO 4 cell exhibits excellent cycling performance with a discharge capacity of 137 mA h g −1 after 300 cycles at 0.2 C. More importantly, the self-healed PDDP can recover almost the same ionic conductivity and cycling performance as the original PDDP.

In the present work, molecular imprinting silica xerogel (MISX) with selective recognition function aiming to regulate drug therapy was synthesized using biomimetic method with poly(ethyleneimine)s (PEIs) as the polymer template and levorotatory ofloxacin (LOFL) as recognition template. Ultraviolet spectroscopy wavelength scanning was used to test the removal process of LOFL, and characteristics of selective loading ofloxacin (OFL) into MISX were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Molecular recognition functionality of MISX was intensively studied, including OFL loading and release. The results suggested that MISX possessed ability to recognize and selectively adsorb LOFL into MISX in OFL aqueous solution. Amorphous phase of adsorbed molecules contributed to molecular recognition because amorphous state increased the stability of LOFL that were selectively adsorbed into MISX, which induced stronger hydrogen bonding formed between LOFL and MISX so as to improve LOFL recognition ability. In vitro release revealed that OFL-MISX tablet initially released LOFL and later gradually OFL into dissolution medium. Thus conversion of drug release with different pharmacological activity had special value in delivering systems.

A series of novel polyurethane (PU)/epoxy resin (EP) graft interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) composites with graded length side chains were prepared from toluene diisocyanate (TDI), polytetrahydrofuran glycol (PTMG), EP, trimethylolpropane (TMP), and diol chain extenders. The effects of the side chain lengths, content, and groups on the damping properties and mechanical properties were investigated. Two damping peaks were observed in the PU/EP IPN system, indicating that the peak damping factor (tan δ ) increased with increased side chain length at low temperatures. The introduction of an apolar side chain slightly narrowed the damping range. However, the side chain carrying polar groups broadened the damping temperature range. The strong H-bond interaction between the ester group of side chain and the N H of hard segments in PU was believed to favor microphase separation to form a larger-sized domain and induce the appearance of the relaxation peak at high temperatures. Consequently, the effective damping temperature range was broadened. The side chain content tethered in the hard segment remarkably influenced the damping properties of PU/EP IPNs both at low and high temperatures. The width and intensity of the tan δ peaks of PU/EP IPNs increased with increased side chain content. The mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation at break) were significantly affected by the side chain content. Thus, an important method of improving the mechanical damping of elastomers by controlling the side chain molecular structure was established.

Supramolecular liquid crystalline polymers and shape memory polymers are attracting increasing interest as materials. In this paper, we describe the development of a supramolecular liquid crystalline shape memory polyurethane (SLCSMPU) complex that exhibits both liquid crystalline properties and shape memory properties. The complex is formed by incorporating 4-hexadecyloxybenzoic acid (HOBA) into a pyridine-containing shape memory polyurethane (PySMPU). The HOBA is tethered to the PySMPU by strong hydrogen bonding between the pyridine rings and the COOH of the HOBA, forming a SLCSMPU complex. Heat treatment plays an important role in the formation of hydrogen-bonded supramolecular liquid crystalline structures in these SLCSMPU complexes. Thus, the SLCSMPU complex not only maintains the intrinsic liquid-crystalline properties of HOBA, but can also form a stable polymeric film for various shape memory applications. Additionally, the SLCSMPU complex forms a two-phase separated structure composed of an amorphous polyurethane matrix and a HOBA crystalline phase, which includes the hydrogen-bonded crystalline HOBA phase and the free HOBA crystalline phase. Therefore, a simple one-step programming process is developed that produces SLCSMPU complexes with excited triple-shape functionalities due to their multiple phase transitions, especially when the molar ratio of HOBA/BINA is less than 0.8.

The severe non-radiative recombination loss caused by SnO 2 /perovskite interface defects greatly hinders the further improvement of the performance and stability of flexible perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, a series of halides KM (M = F, Cl, Br, I) were inserted as interface layers to modulate the SnO 2 /perovskite interface. Both experimental and theoretical calculation demonstrated that F − exhibited stronger interface coupling effect between the SnO 2 and perovskite than other halide ions (Cl − , Br − , I − ). The F − had unique effects in effectively depressing SnO 2 /perovskite interface defects ascribed to the simultaneous formation of Sn F bonds and hydrogen bonds , resulting in reduced non-radiative recombination and improved interfacial contact. In consequence, the champion KF-modified flexible and rigid PSCs delivered outstanding PCE of 18.16 % and 21.36 %, accompanied by the enhanced V OC of 1.14 V and 1.16 V, respectively. Meanwhile, the stability of flexible PSCs was significantly ameliorated after KF modification, and about 84 % of the original efficiency could be retained even after 3000 bending cycles. This work provides a facile and efficient strategy for interface modulation to achieve high-performance and stable flexible PSCs.

Levofloxacin (LEV) infiltrated in groundwater has threatened the safety of drinking water . For in-situ remediation of LEV-contaminated groundwater, there exists a main challenge of exploiting proper high efficient backfill medium in utilizing charming permeable reactive barriers (PRBs). Herein, three porous shapeable three-component hydrogen-bonded covalent organic aerogels (H C OA-1, H C OA-2 and H C OA-3) were fabricated based on a multiple-linking-site strategy to evaluate for adsorptive removal of LEV. The three H C OAs exhibited satisfactory performance in LEV adsorption that could integrate high adsorption capacity, good antiion interference, excellent recyclability and wide pH tolerance. The different regularity of kinetics and isotherms of three H C OAs signified that electrostatic effect, pore preservation, hydrogen bonding probably govern the adsorption process in combination, coupling with π-π electron-donor-acceptor (EDA), dipole-dipole and hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction besides. In addition, the response surface methodology (RSM) was employed for studying the single and synergetic effects of selected variables and optimizing operation conditions. Furthermore, a laboratory PRB column packed with processable H C OA-2 was set up to investigate the LEV removal, and the breakthrough data was explained by Adams-Bohart, Thomas, BDST and Yoon-Nelson models. We believe could hopefully bring H C OAs into the real in-situ remediation of such challenging and persistent LEV-polluted groundwater with further massive-scale efficiently.

Organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite has played an important role in optoelectronics and photonics due to their extremely high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). However, considering the strong nonmetallic property of antimony (Sb), the excitons in antimony-based single crystals are usually dissipated in the form of non-radiative recombination under organic-inductive effect, which leads to the low PLQY. Herein, two kinds of perovskite-like single crystals, i.e., (8-HQ) 2 SbCl 3 and (8-HQH)SbCl 4 , are innovatively grown. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the unique luminescence characteristics are associated with the inductive effect of organic coordination and exciton effect in the metal octahedral skeleton. When Cl − replaces the organic ligand in (8-HQ) 2 SbCl 3 , the inductive effect is reduced while the self-trapped exciton effect in the metal octahedron is enhanced. Besides, the theoretical research on electron transmission in a modeling device reveals that the hydrogen bond of organic A-site in the single crystal promotes the transition of electrons. Based on the luminescent properties of (8-HQH)SbCl 4 , the white LED devices are obtained by coating (8-HQH)SbCl 4 and red phosphor on 450 nm LED chips.

Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) membrane is an embryonic technology in chemical engineering for simultaneously purifying organic solvents and recycling nano-scale molecules. Although the inherent nano-cavity cyclodextrins (CDs) as powerful molecular hosts in supramolecular science ensure promise for separation technology, the limited synthesis toolbox and material choice impede the CDs deployment in membrane separations, especially for OSN applications. Herein, biocompatible β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and mussel-inspired polydopamine (pDA) were discovered as the building blocks to simultaneously construct OSN membranes assisted by the host-guest interactions of supramolecular chemistry and hydrogen-bonds via one-step “green” process. Honeycomb microstructures were formed in this process, which adds the molecular transportation pathways. Such biopolymer membranes can remain extraordinarily stable in organic solvent environments, whilst achieving high rejection against angstrom-sized molecule with different charges toward environmental and energy benefits.
