A water-processable blue fluorescent silver nanoparticle@graphene–polymer composite (Ag@G–pNIPAM) consisting of graphene coated with a thermally responsive poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) shell is prepared. The pNIPAM shell swells or collapses as a function of temperature, serving as a means to trap silver nanoparticles in solution and get them sufficiently close to the graphene core to provide fluorescence enhancement based on the local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. The unique thermoresponsive properties and high enhancement ratio of the material should find application in solution fluorescence enhancers and a variety of biomedical applications, such as cellular uptake, sensing and imaging.

Nanosilicon@nonstoichiometric silicon oxide where nanosilicon is embedded in SiO x matrix (abbreviated as nano-Si@SiOx), is a very attractive material structure to suppress the volume effect of silicon in Lithium-ion batteries. In this work, we demonstrate that the combination of electrolysis and peeling technique produce nano-Si@SiOx from bulk SiO 2 . X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) are employed to characterize the prepared materials. The average O/Si atomic ratio of the synthesized nano-Si@SiOx is about 0.91. The nano-Si@SiOx/graphite composite prepared using it as the precursor exhibits a stable discharge capacity of about 1560 mAh g −1 (calculated on the total mass of the composite) with good cyclic stability and rate capability. This work provides a new routine to prepare nano-Si@SiOx composite.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) are highly promising as next-generation energy storage devices owing to their potential for great safety and high energy density. This work demonstrates that composite solid polymer electrolyte with vertically-aligned card-house structure can simultaneously improve the high rate and long-term cycling performance of ASSLBs. The vertical alignment of laponite nanosheets creates fast and uniform Li + ion transport channels at the nanosheets/polymer interphase, resulting in high ionic conductivity of 8.9 × 10 −4 S cm −1 and Li + transference number of 0.32 at 60 °C, as well as uniformly distributed solid electrolyte interphase. Such electrolyte is characterized by high mechanical strength, low flammability, excellent structural stability and stable ion transport channels. In addition, the ASSLB cell with the electrolyte and LiFePO 4 cathode delivers a high discharge specific capacity of 124.8 mAh g −1 , which accounts for 85.6% of its initial capacity after 500 cycles at 1C. The reasonable design through structural control strategy by interconnecting the vertically-aligned nanosheets open a way to fabricate high performance composite solid polymer electrolytes.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) generally suffers from low crystallization rate and long molding duration, which as a result limit its application as engineering plastics. To overcome these drawbacks, series of PET/layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared by a solution blending process. The effect of metal composition (MgAl and CaAl) and organo-modification (stearic acid intercalated) for LDH fillers on the crystallization behavior of the nanocomposites was investigated. It was revealed that, compared with PET/CaAl-LDH, the PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposite exhibits a higher crystallization temperature and faster crystallization rate, which is associated with the superior nucleation ability of MgAl-LDH. The nucleation mechanism of PET induced by LDHs was explored by means of Avrami equation and theory of Hoffman-Lauritzen, pointing out that the incorporation of LDHs reduce the free energy of nucleation and the fold surface free energy of PET. In order to improve the compatibility between LDH and PET, stearic acid (SA) intercalated MgAl-LDH was prepared and filled into PET matrix. The resultant PET/MgAl-LDH-SA shows a further enhanced crystallization temperature and accelerated crystallization rate, in comparison with PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposites. In addition, the thermal stability, gas barrier and mechanical properties of PET/LDH composites were improved upon incorporation of LDH fillers.

The synthesis of a nanocomposite gel polymer electrolytes (NGPEs) using Li + -functionalized SPEEK (SPEEK(Li)) nanofiber membrane as a matrix, cross-linked PVA as a gelled agent and LiClO 4 as an electrolytic salt for electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) were reported in this work. Compared with conventional PVA based gel electrolyte, the “SO 3 − Li + ” functional groups and the pores structure of the SPEEK(Li) nanofiber membrane improves the ionic conductivity as well as mechanical stability , which made the prepared NGPEs exhibited a high ionic conductivity of 8.9 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at ambient temperature and a large voltage stability window range from 0 to 2.0 V. The fabricated symmetric EDLCs showed a specific capacitance of 146.96 F g −1 at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 , with a maximum energy density of 18.26 W h kg −1 . Meanwhile, the EDLCs showed outstanding cyclical stability of 98% specific capacitance retention after 3000 cycles GCD testing, all of these results indicated that the NGPEs should be appropriate to EDLCs and next-generation energy storage systems .
