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.

Carbon-coated van der Waals stacked Sb 2 S 3 nanorods (SSNR/C) are synthesized by facile hydrothermal growth as anodes for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). The sodiation kinetics and phase evolution behavior of the SSNR/C anode during the first and subsequent cycles are unraveled by coupling in situ transmission electron microscopy analysis with first-principles calculations. During the first sodiation process, Na + ions intercalate into the Sb 2 S 3 crystals with an ultrafast speed of 146 nm s −1 . The resulting amorphous Na x Sb 2 S 3 intermediate phases undergo sequential conversion and alloying reactions to form crystalline Na 2 S, Na 3 Sb, and minor metallic Sb. Upon desodiation, Na + ions extract from the nanocrystalline phases to leave behind the fully desodiated Sb 2 S 3 in an amorphous state. Such unique phase evolution behavior gives rise to superb electrochemical performance and leads to an unexpectedly small volume expansion of ≈54%. The first-principles calculations reveal distinctive phase evolution arising from the synergy between the extremely low Na + ion diffusion barrier of 190 meV and the sharply increased electronic conductivity upon the formation of amorphous Na x Sb 2 S 3 intermediate phases. These findings highlight an anomalous Na + ion storage mechanism and shed new light on the development of high performance SIB anodes based on van der Waals crystals.

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.

Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) tethered fluorinated diblock copolymers including linear-shaped ap-POSS–PMMA-b-PDFHM and star-shaped s-POSS–(PMMA-b-PDFHM)16 are synthesized by octakis(dibromoethyl)POSS (POSS-(Br)16) and aminopropylisobutyl POSS (ap-POSS) initiating methylmethacrylate (MMA) and dodecafluoroheptylmethacrylate (DFHM). In THF solution, both diblock copolymers could self-assemble into 200 nm core/shell micelles with a POSS/PDFHM core and 70–80 nm PMMA shell. These micelles are able to produce typical films with a fluorine-rich top-surface and POSS-gathered sub-surface. Although PDFHM segments and POSS cages are competitively migrating onto the film surface, the migration of the PDFHM segments is actually improved by the POSS cages. Comparatively, the surface of the ap-POSS–PMMA-b-PDFHM film is much more rough and fluorine-rich than the s-POSS–(PMMA-b-PDFHM)16 film, therefore, the ap-POSS–PMMA-b-PDFHM film has higher viscoelasticity and higher oleophobicity, but a little lower hydrophobicity than the s-POSS–(PMMA-b-PDFHM)16 film. The hydrophobic application of both linear- and star-shaped topologies to glass, cotton fabric and stone substrates reveals that the treated samples exhibit superhydrophobicity for the cotton fabric (>150°) and obvious hydrophobicity for the stone and glass (>135°) in terms of resistance to water and other liquids like coffee, milk, coke and green tea. It is believed that the properties of self-assembled films and the hydrophobic applications are related closely to the topologies of block copolymers.

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.

A liquid-phase reducing method of synthesizing Pt nanocrystals was demonstrated, and dendrite-, cube-, and cuboctahedron-shaped Pt nanocrystals (NCs) with well-defined monomorphic were successfully synthesized through iodine ions mediated with the CTAB agent. When the KI concentration was increased to thirty times of K 2 PtCl 4 at the nucleation stage, the high-quality Pt nanodendrites could be obtained. However, no matter how many KI were added at the growth age, only cube- and cuboctahedron-shaped Pt nanocrystals formed. The results of high-resolution TEM, EDX, and XRD indicated that the size and shape of Pt NCs could be turned by changing the concentration and time of KI. In the nucleation stage, it might be due to that some iodine ions adsorb on the surfaces of Pt NCs, which probably cause the rapid growth process resulting in the formation of Pt nanodendrites. In the growth stage, although high concentrations of I − ions could contribute to the shape control and generate bigger particles of Pt NCs, small Pt particles do not grow into dendrites. The insight into the role of I − ions in synthesis of Pt NCs reported here provided a viewpoint for clearly understanding the formation mechanism of anisotropic platinum nanostructures.

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 .

One-dimensional (1D) atomically thin crystals have attracted considerable interest due to their unique properties and potential applications. Herein, the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanoribbons on sapphire(0001) supported monolayer MoS 2 flakes without catalysts as well as the characterizations by means of Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, optical microscopy (OM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). The Raman and PL results is reported, as well as OM images reveal that such MoS 2 nanoribbons grow on monolayer MoS 2 flakes. STEM and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) results reveal that they are grown along the 〈 10 1 ¯ 0 〉 direction with atomically sharp edges. Controlled experiments show that the deficiency of sulfur vapor at the beginning of growth induced 1D MoO x S 2− x crystals as precursors. The subsequent sulfurization changes them into MoS 2 nanoribbons. These findings provide a facile approach to MoS 2 nanoribbons and enrich the horizon of the preparation of nanostructured transition metal dichalcogenides.

Researchers are accustomed to utilizing traditional solid-state and sol–gel routes to synthesize Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP). No regulation mechanism is proposed to illustrate the growth process of NVP in solvothermal environment. In current work, uniform spherical particles with positive charge are synthesized by molecular self-assembly of nanosphere micelles using structural guiding agent polyethylene glycol (PEG) and surfactant Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Nanoflower-shaped NVP sample is successfully prepared in the 100 % methyl alcohol medium, derived from the plate V 2 O 5 (negative charge) combining with the nuclear nanospheres (positive charge) with the induction of electrostatic attraction. Based on the multi-dimensional tests and molecular dynamic calculation, the protective mechanism of polar solution for NVP system is proposed for the first time, that is, methanol solvent system can better protect the morphological features of NVP than water environment to maintain the original special nanoflower morphology. Due to the distinctive and stabilized nanoflower construction, the optimized NVP60 sample can provide more extra active sites for the efficient de-intercalation of Na + and possess a large contacting area with electrolyte, resulting in the facilitated kinetic characteristics and superior electrochemical performance. The optimized NVP60 cathode possesses superior sodium storage property in both half cell and full cell. This work proposes a synergetic strategy combining theory and experiment to design and synthesize the modified NVP-based cathode materials from the molecular bonding aspect, further promoting the development of high performance cathode for SIBs.

A TiO 2 nanofilm was prepared on the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy with controllable thickness through atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique, which can adjust the corrosion behaviors of AZ31 Mg alloy. Compared with the untreated Mg alloys, corrosion current densities ( i corr ) can decline by 58% in the 200-cycles TiO 2 -covered Mg alloy and further decline by up to 74% with the thickness of nanofilm up to 63 nm (400 cycles). The subsequent modification with a cross-linked conversion layer of 3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane (APTES) by a dipping method can produce a compact silane coating on TiO 2 nanofilm, which can seal pinholes of TiO 2 nanofilm and serve as a barrier to further adjust the corrosion behavior of the substrate. The i corr can decline about two orders of magnitude in the TiO 2 /silane composite coating. Making the adjustable corrosion rate come true, which can be attributed to the precise control on the thickness of metal oxide nanofilm and additional protection from the compact silane coating. In vitro study discloses that the TiO 2 /silane hybrid coating shows higher expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and can promote cellular adhesion and proliferation with better cytocompatibility than untreated Mg alloy.

Inspired by the versatile adhesion capability of marine adhesive proteins, core-shell structured polydopamine-coated layered double hydroxide (LDH@PDA) were prepared successfully by in-situ growing PDA on the surface of MgAl-LDH with a high aspect ratio . LDH@PDA/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanocomposites were prepared by blending LDH@PDA and pure PCL via solution casting method to obtain homogeneous films. The results of thermal analysis confirmed that LDH@PDA can act as a nucleating agent . And thermal stability of nanocomposites was improved due to core-shell structured LDH@PDA. With incorporation of as low as 1 wt% of LDH@PDA, a 20% increase in tensile strength (41.1 MPa), 26% increase in elongation at break (772%) and 26% reduction in the oxygen relative permeability were achieved. The improvement in the mechanical and gas barrier properties of nanocomposites at low filler loading was attributed to the strong interfacial interaction of LDH@PDA wtih the PCL matrix.

A novel family of multi-responsive, tough, and reversible hydrogels were prepared by the combination of dipole-dipole interaction, hydrogen bonding interaction and slightly chemical cross-linking, using monomers of acrylonitrile, sodium allylsulfonate and itaconic acid. Reversible gel-sol transition was achieved by the flexible conversion of the dipole-dipole interactions between acrylonitrile-acrylonitrile and acrylonitrile-sodium thiocyanate, and the hydrogels could freely form desired shapes. The dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding interactions improved the mechanical strength of the hydrogels with a compressive stress of 2.38 MPa. Meanwhile, the hydrogels sustained cyclic compressive tests with 60% strain, and exhibited excellent elastic property. The hydrogels were sensitive to pH and ionic strength, and could keep their perfect spherical structures without any obvious cracks even after immersing in strong ionic strength (or pH) solution for several reversible cycles. Furthermore, the hydrogels were recycled for environmental pollution remediation, and showed great potential to be applied in water treatments and other related fields.
