As a dielectric material , BaTiO 3 -based ceramics are desirable for high performance ultra-thin multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) application. In this work, BaTiO 3 -based dielectric ceramics with superior dielectric properties were synthesized using a reducing atmosphere sintering process . It is found that the contribution of “wet" grain-boundary diffusion become significant as the oxygen partial pressure increases, resulting to a larger grain size and higher permittivity. Especially, for the specimen sintered in higher oxygen partial pressure , the stable temperature coefficient of capacitance (TCC) is dominated by irreversal domain due to the increase of super-lattice phase. Samples with higher oxygen partial pressure exhibit a higher permittivity of 2700 and better permittivity-temperature stability. Furthermore, ultra-thin MLCCs with thickness of 1 μm and capacitance of 10 μF and the TCC of X7R were successfully fabricated. This work provides a comprehensive explanation demonstrating upon the significant roles of grain size and defect engineering in the dielectric performance in BaTiO 3 -based ceramics, and points out an avenue to obtain excellent permittivity-temperature stability in ultra-thin MLCCs.

The fabrication of flexible electronics has gained extensive attention due to the growing demand of flexible devices. Among various methods, laser direct writing technology has emerged as a promising approach due to its advantages of high processing accuracy and simplicity. This research focuses on the preparation of copper microelectrodes using laser-induced reduction of CuO nanoparticles (Cu NPs) on polyethylene terephthalate films. First, the influence of various parameters on the conductivity of the copper microelectrodes is investigated. Second, flexible copper microelectrodes with a minimum resistivity of 62.29 μΩ cm and an adhesion grade of 4B level are successfully fabricated. Building upon these results, a capacitive pressure sensor is developed with optimal sensitivity of 3.99 Pa −1 , good hysteresis of 3.99%, and response and recovery times of 1.2 and 1.3 s, respectively. Repeatability tests confirm the sensor's stability and fatigue resistance. This research provides valuable insights for the production of flexible sensors.

Blend films with long nanowires of zinc octaethylporphyrin (ZnOEP) embedded in an insulating polymer of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) have been successfully fabricated by a one-step spin-coating process. Concerning photoactive blends based on small-molecule semiconductors, this is quite a novel strategy and allows us to greatly reduce the issues related to low device performance, such as phase-separation, poor connectivity of the semiconducting layer, and higher densities of interfacial defects. Intensive studies on the correlation between the film morphology and device performance have revealed that excellent photodetector performance is derived from efficient charge transport and good connectivity observed in highly crystalline, interconnected ZnOEP nanowires embedded in an insulating PMMA matrix. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a blend-film-based organic photodetector, which exhibits high sensitivity, high stability, high Ion/Ioff ratio, excellent mechanical flexibility, and a broadband responsivity region extending up to 1050 nm. The unique characteristics of facile fabrication, high sensitivity, excellent mechanical stability, and broadband responsivity can make the blend film of ZnOEP and PMMA promising in large-area flexible photodetectors.

Maleated glycidyl 3-pentadecenyl phenyl ether with styrene (MGS) was synthesized from glycidyl 3-pentadecenyl phenyl ether (GPPE), maleic anhydride (MAH) and styrene (St) in the presence of AIBN initiator at 80°C, and then the resultant MGS was applied as a compatibilizer to prepare SBR/silica composites. Meanwhile, the commercial compatibilizer bis-(triethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulfide (named Si69) added into composite was also prepared for comparison purpose. The synthetic MGS structure was characterized by GPC and FTIR, and SBR/silica compounds with different compatibilizer were analyzed using RPA, DMA and so on. The results showed that M̄n and M̄w of MGS were 19,538 g/mol and 23,790 g/mol, respectively. The curing time of compounds with MGS increased, whereas the maximum and minimum torques decreased. The addition of MGS decreased Payne effect of SBR/silica compounds, which implied an improvement of silica dispersion in the compounds. Bound rubber content of compound with MGS was about 1.7 times higher than the absence and 1.5 times higher than that with Si69. The tensile strength of the composites was improved by increasing compatibilizer loading, and the optimum value was observed at 6 phr of MGS. Meanwhile the use of MGS can improve the anti-aging property of composite. According to DMA, the tanδ value at 0°C of composite with MGS was higher than composite without compatibilizer suggesting that MGS can improve the wet skid resistance of composite. The SEM analysis revealed that introduction of MGS enhanced the compatibility between SBR and silica. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The novel SP/IL/AMS composite membrane doped with amino-functionalized mesoporous silica (AMS) was successfully prepared. Sulfonated poly ether ether ketone (SPEEK, SP) was used as the polymer matrix and the ionic liquid (IL) was N -ethylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate (EIm[Tfo]). Its properties were compared with SP/IL/NMS composite membrane doped with non-functionalized mesoporous silica (NMS). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis indicated that the components in the composite membrane were bound by intermolecular forces. In addition, an acid-base interaction was formed between -NH 2 in AMS and -SO 3 H in SPEEK. The acid-base pair is beneficial to proton conduction. The anhydrous proton conductivity of SP/IL/3-AMS-7.5 composite membrane is about 4 times higher than that of the SP/IL/NMS-7.5. In addition, the good interfacial compatibility between AMS and polymer matrix is conducive for creation continuous proton transfer channel. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) showed that all composite membranes were stable at 270 °C. The leaching of IL data indicated that IL can be effectively retained due to the presence of -OH and -NH 2 on the NMS and AMS surfaces. The SP/IL/AMS composite membrane could be used in proton exchange membrane fuel cells under medium temperature and anhydrous conditions.

In this research a thermo-sensitive drug loaded core–shell fibers were prepared by UV photo-polymerization combined with electrospinning technology. The biodegradable polymer polylactic acid (PLA) was used as the core with electrospinning and the N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) was selected to be shell of the fibers via UV photo-polymerization, respectively. Combretastatin A4 (CA4) was used as the model drug loaded in PLA (core structure) to test the thermo-sensitivity of the core–shell fibers. SEM was performed to observe the morphology of the fibers. TEM was carried out to confirm the core–shell structure of the fibers. Furthermore, XPS and FTIR results demonstrated that the core–shell structure had been fabricated as designed. Water contact angle (WCA) test indicated that the fibers show different wettability when the temperature was below or above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). Moreover, in vitro drug release test was conducted to explore the difference of the drug release when the temperature was at 25 °C and 40 °C. The cell culture studies showed that the prepared core–shell structure nanofibers have a potential application in the biomedical fields as tissue engineering.

1,3-dioxolane (DOL) shows low interfacial impedance and high Coulombic efficiency, thus its polymer electrolytes have attracted extensive attention. In order to initiate DOL polymerization, catalyst amount of LiPF 6 is usually used rather than as the main lithium salt . Totally replacement of LiTFSI with low cost of LiPF 6 could bring the heat explosion and high viscosity when mixing DOL with 0.9 M LiPF 6 electrolyte (carbonate ester solvent). Here, based on the Lewis acid-base interaction, a new type of Lewis base, pyridine, is added to control the explosive polymerization of 1,3-dioxolane in LiPF 6 electrolyte. Through tuning the pyridine content, the gelling process and electrochemical properties could be controlled. It is demonstrated that the optimized monomer conversion and electrochemical window are up to 85.2 % and 4.6 V; meanwhile, the optimized conductivity and transfer number are 0.99 × 10 −3 S/cm (25 °C) and 0.68, respectively. The stable interface between PDOL and lithium metal anode could be proved by the stable over-potential (50mv, 700 h) at current density of 0.5 mA cm −2 . After 500 cycles at 2C, the assembled Li/PDOL@py 0.125 /LiFePO 4 battery delivers 115 mAh/g and 90 % capacity retention, with high average Coulombic efficiency of 99.83 %. The present results demonstrate the heat suppression role of pyridine toward mixing DOL with 0.9 M LiPF 6 electrolyte, which solves the heat and viscosity problems for PDOL based gelling polymer electrolytes .

A sensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was developed for the detection of avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J), which benefitted from multiple signal amplification involving graphene-perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid nanocomposites (GR-PTCA), nanocellulose-Au NP composites (NC-Au) and the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) catalytic reaction . GR-PTCA nanocomposites on glassy carbon electrodes served as the immunosensor platform. Due to their excellent electrical conductivity and abundant polycarboxylic sites, the GR-PTCA nanocomposites allowed fast electron transfer and good immobilization of primary antibodies, thereby affording a strong immunosensor signal in the presence of ALV-J. The detected signal could be further amplified by the introduction of NC-Au composites as a carrier of secondary antibodies (Ab 2 ) and by harnessing the catalytic properties of Au and ALP. Under optimized testing conditions, the electrochemical immunosensor displayed excellent analytical performance for the detection of ALV-J, showing a linear current response from 10 2.08 to 10 4.0 TCID 50 /mL (TCID 50 : 50% tissue culture infective dose) with a low detection limit of 10 1.98 TCID 50 /mL (S/N = 3). In addition to high sensitivity, the immunosensor showed very good selectivity, reproducibility and operational stability, demonstrating potential application for the quantitative detection of ALV-J in clinical diagnosis.

The poly(ethylene oxide) based composite solid electrolyte(PEO-CSE) is an effective solution for developing high-performance solid-state lithium battery . However, the poly(ethlene oxide)(PEO) based solid-state lithium battery using 4.0 V cathode suffers from severe interfacial instability problems. In this work, we add additive lithium difluorophosphate(LiPO 2 F 2 ) into the PEO-CSE to form a stable and low resistance interphase at the cathode/electrolyte interface during charge/discharge process. The electrochemical stability window of PEO-CSE increases to ∼5.0 V. Besides, the electrochemical performance of PEO based solid-state lithium battery with LiCoO 2 as cathode is excellent. The discharge capacity of LiCoO 2 /Li cell with LiPO 2 F 2 reaches 108.5 mAh g −1 at 1.0C. In contrast, the discharge capacity that without LiPO 2 F 2 is only 60.0 mAh g −1 . Meanwhile, the PEO-CSE with LiPO 2 F 2 cell delivers stable cycle performance at 4.2 V. The capacity retention maintains 88.5% compared with 16.1%(without LiPO 2 F 2 ) after 100 cycles. Furthermore, it's still maintains 83.3% after 150 cycles. In addition, the cathode/electrolyte interface is analyzed by transmission electron microscope(TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Galvanostatic intermittent titration test(GITT) is used to analyze the dynamic diffusion performance. This strategy provides a simple and effective way to improve the high voltage stability of the cathode/electrolyte interface.

Improving the physical properties of biobased polymers using bionanofillers is essential to preserve its biodegradability. This work presents a dopamine-induced functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) with polyethylene glycol (PEG), to enhance the crystallization, mechanical and barrier properties of poly( L -lactic acid) (PLLA) bionanocomposites. The effect of molecular weight of grafted PEG on the properties of PLLA is also studied. PEGylation of CNCs significantly enhance the crystallization of PLLA, especially for CNCs functionalized with PEG of lower molecular weight, which lead to balanced strength and ductility, and 66.4% reduction in the oxygen permeability coefficient at a low content of 0.5 wt %. Moreover, 168% improvement of ductility for PLLA can be obtained by CNCs functionalized with longer PEG chains. The surface functionalization of CNCs proposed here opens up a green avenue towards designing and fabricating fully bio-based, high-barrier and low-cost polymer nanocomposites for packaging applications.

Membrane blocking is of great importance to nutrients transfer and illumination in attached cultivation of algae, which subsequently affects the biomass and nutrients production of algal biofilm . Accordingly, a vertical-algal-biofilm (VAB) with cellulose acetate (CA) membranes with pore size of 0.45, 1.2, 2.0, and 3.0 μm is settled to study the effect of membrane blocking on attached cultivation of microalgae . According to the results, the algae production is independent of the roughness, hydrophilicity , and surface free energy of membranes because the VAB is inoculated via filtration-on method in this work. Nevertheless, the algae productivity of first-cultivation on VABs increases to 5.02 g/m 2 . day when the pore size of CA membrane increases to1.2 μm, while it decreases to 4.5 g/m 2 . day on VABs with CA-3.0 due to the complete blocking of CA membranes by algae cells. The growth rates of first-cultivation and re-cultivation are well fitted by a logistic model and a linear model, respectively. The total lipids contents of microalgae on different CA membranes are affected by pore size due to the variations of nutrients transfer resistance and light intensity under different membrane blocking models. A maximum total lipids content of algae biomass cultivated on VABs with CA-1.2 is about 23.74% due to the nitrogen starvation and high illumination intensity under intermediate blocking model. Therefore, the attached cultivation of algae on VABs under intermediate blocking model is much favorable for algal biomass and lipid production.

The strong acidic cationic exchange fiber (SACEF) was used to adsorb yohimbine from alcoholic solution. Batch experiments were performed to examine the effects of adsorbent dosage, solution pH and temperature in the adsorption process. The thermodynamics and kinetics of adsorption were also analyzed. The optimum yohimbine adsorption onto the SACEF was found at pH = 5 of solution and equilibrium could be attained within 20 min. The equilibrium adsorption data were preferably modeled with the Freundlich isotherm model and the thermodynamic parameters were calculated to be: 11.99 kJ/mol < Δ H < 13.72 kJ/mol, −21.17 kJ/mol < Δ G < −17.87 kJ/mol and 63.18 J/mol K < Δ S < 65.60 J/mol K. The results demonstrated that the adsorption was an endothermic, spontaneous and feasible process of physisorption . Meanwhile, yohimbine adsorption on SACEF fitted well to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the adsorption rate was limited by film diffusion. The activation energy Ea was calculated to be 14.39 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the surface morphologies of the SACEF before and after yohimbine adsorption were analyzed by SEM and the adsorption mechanism was discussed by FTIR analysis. SACEF could effectively adsorb yohimbine from alcoholic solution and could be used repeatedly for more than five cycles.
