A novel amine-based functionalization method was developed to improve the interfacial adhesion between TiO 2 NWs and CFs in supercritical water. The microstructure, morphology and mechanical properties of CFs were investigated. It was found that introducing hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) dendrimers and branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) on CF could increase significantly the adhesion strength between CF and TiO 2 NWs and their interfacial shear strength with epoxy resin, and the order is CF-PEI-TiO 2 NWs > CF-HMTA-TiO 2 NWs > CF-COOH-TiO 2 NWs > CF-TiO 2 NW. Meanwhile, the reinforcing mechanisms and interfacial failure modes have also been discussed. We believe that these effective methods may provide theoretical foundation for the preparation of high performance composite materials.

Thin film capacitors with large energy storage density and high breakdown strength are widely used in modern electronic fields. To solve the problems of interface effect and different polarization mechanism between matrix and fillers in conventional heterogeneous structure composite thin film capacitors, a new-type inorganic microcrystal-amorphous composite film of 0.92BaTiO 3 -0.08Bi(Ni 0.5 Zr 0.5 )O 3 (0.92BT-0.08BNZ) are prepared by sol–gel method. The amorphous matrix improving the breakdown strength is introduced into the film by adjusting preparation technology. Moreover, the nano-scale polar microcrystalline regions (fillers) are introduced and uniformly distributed in the amorphous matrix under various annealing temperatures. Through investigating the influence of different amorphous matrix and microcrystal trend on the dielectric and energy storage properties, it is found that synergistic effect between the polarized microcrystalline regions and the amorphous matrix are optimal at an annealed temperature of 550 ℃. The result shows that a high energy storage density of 103.7 J cm −3 and an efficiency of 88.3% are obtained under the electric field of 8.30MV cm −1 . Simultaneously, the excellent dielectric and energy storage stability is achieved in a wide temperature range of 20–200 °C. Conclusively, this microcrystal-amorphous composite film overcome the low energy storage capability and poor thermal stability of conventional composite films and provide a feasible way for preparing high energy storage performance films.

Graphene has been widely studied for its excellent properties of outstanding conductivity, strength , and flexibility. However, interlayer defects formed during the macroscopic assembly of graphene nanosheets will severely degrade the performance of graphene films. Herein, a strategy combined with trace carboxyl graphene oxide (GO), mild reduction, and chemical crosslinking is employed to minimize the interlayer defects for enhancing both the conductivity and mechanical strength of graphene films. The trace carboxyl feature of GO allows nanosheets to assemble orderly into highly oriented GO films . Subsequently, the mild chemical reduction preserves the highly oriented and packed microstructure. Coupling with further crosslinking by introducing conjugated molecules with pyrene terminal groups (1-pyrene butyric acid-1,6-hexane diamine, PHD) to provide extra π-π bonds, both the mechanical strength and conductivity of graphene films are improved to 548.4 MPa and 1.7 × 10 5 S m −1 , respectively. In addition, the graphene film with only ∼2 μm in thickness possesses an excellent electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of ∼40 dB and a specific shielding effectiveness of up to 74 278 dB cm 2 g −1 in a wide frequency range of 8.2–40.0 GHz. Thus, this study provides an energy-saving fabrication route for mechanically strong, effective thermal management and EMI shielding films.

In this study, NaYTiO 4 : Yb/Tm phosphors with different concentrations of Yb 3+ and Tm 3+ ions were synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction. Upon a 980 nm laser excitation, the up-conversion luminescence properties in a wide temperature range (303–823 K) were investigated. By employing the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) techniques based on the robust near-infrared emissions of thermally coupled 3 F 2,3 / 3 H 4 energy levels and 3 H 4(1) / 3 H 4(2) Stark energy levels, the calculated absolute sensitivity (S a ), relative sensitivity (S r ), and temperature uncertainty (δT) values demonstrated good temperature sensing properties. For the 3 F 2,3 / 3 H 4 energy levels, the maximum S r and minimum δT values are 1.04% K −1 and 0.010 K at 463 K, respectively. Moreover, the maximum S a is 0.32 × 10 −3 K −1 at 823 K. In addition, the thermally coupled 3 H 4 Stark energy levels present the maximum S a , S r and the minimum δT are 0.88 × 10 −3 K −1 , 0.60% K −1 and 3.17 K at 303 K, respectively. Besides, due to the ratio of blue to red emission varying with elevated temperature, the NaYTiO 4 : Yb/Tm phosphors are expected to be applied as an intuitive high-temperature indicator.

A novel single-ion conducting polymer electrolyte (SIPE) membrane with high lithium-ion transference number, good mechanical strength, and excellent ionic conductivity is designed and synthesized by facile coupling of lithium bis(allylmalonato) borate (LiBAMB), pentaerythritol tetrakis (2-mercaptoacetate) (PETMP) and 3,6-dioxa-1,8-octanedithiol (DODT) in an electrospun poly(vinylidienefluoride) (PVDF) supporting membrane via a one-step photoinitiated in situ thiol–ene click reaction. The structure-optimized LiBAMB-PETMP-DODT (LPD)@PVDF SIPE shows an outstanding ionic conductivity of 1.32 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 25 °C, together with a high lithium-ion transference number of 0.92 and wide electrochemical window up to 6.0 V. The SIPE exhibits high tensile strength of 7.2 MPa and elongation at break of 269%. Due to these superior performances, the SIPE can suppress lithium dendrite growth, which is confirmed by galvanostatic Li plating/stripping cycling test and analysis of morphology of Li metal electrode surface after cycling test. Li|LPD@PVDF|Li symmetric cell maintains an extremely stable and low overpotential without short circuiting over the 1050 h cycle. The Li|LPD@PVDF|LiFePO 4 cell shows excellent rate capacity and outstanding cycle performance compared to cells based on a conventional liquid electrolyte (LE) with Celgard separator. The facile approach of the SIPE provides an effective and promising electrolyte for safe, long-life, and high-rate lithium metal batteries.

In this study, La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 doped with Eu 3+ was synthesized by the high-temperature solid-state method. The phase composition of the Eu 3+ -doped La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 sample was confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis, and the microstructure was observed via the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Under the excitation at 211 nm, the room temperature emission spectra of Eu 3+ in the samples with different doping levels were recorded. In addition, the prepared La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 : x Eu 3+ ( x = 0–0.25) phosphors were color tunable. A non-contact optical thermometer with high sensitivity and high-temperature resolution was fabricated based on the different thermal quenching behaviors of the Mo–O group and Eu 3+ center. The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR), temperature resolution (ΔT), maximum absolute and relative sensor sensitivity (Sa and Sr) of La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ were calculated according to different thermal quenching effects between room temperature (298K) and 573K of Eu 3+ and Mo–O group. These results show that La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ has excellent sensitivity and temperature resolution, good reversibility and reliability, as Sa = 0.0525 K -1 , Sr = 0.3724. % K −1 , ΔT = 0.0806 K and the FIR error was only 0.62%. Therefore, the Eu 3+ -doped La 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 is a promising candidate material for high performance non-contact optical thermometers.

The electrostatic energy storage performance of polymer dielectrics at high temperature and high electric field can be significantly improved by the incorporation of wide-bandgap, nano-sized particles. It is traditionally believed that the embedded nanoparticles can scatter the hot charges and lead to charge trapping in the interfacial region , which suppress the conduction loss and promote the energy storage performance. In this work, the nano-sized γ-Al 2 O 3 with cubic defect spinel structure and nano-sized α-Al 2 O 3 with a wider bandgap are introduced into a heat-resistant dielectric polymer, respectively, to form two different nanocomposites . The field-dependent energy storage performance, electrical conductivity , and breakdown strength of the polymer nanocomposites at high temperatures, as well as the thermally stimulated depolarization current , are investigated. The results indicate that the intrinsic deep traps introduced by γ-Al 2 O 3 with cubic defect spinel structure are a more critical factor in improving the energy storage performance of the polymer-based composites. We anticipate that our findings reported in this work may help to better guide the selection of nanofillers for high-temperature dielectric polymer nanocomposites.

Developing smart luminescent materials with desirable and tunable characteristics has always been an overriding priority of fluorescence technology. However, huge challenges encompass the single functionality of the luminescent materials and the traditional chemical synthetic techniques with rigorously controlling over the miscellaneous experimental conditions and variables. Herein, the lanthanide-doped bismuth-layered ferroelectric (Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 ) 0.96 Er 0.04 Bi 2 Nb 2 O 9.02 has been prepared to be utilized as a platform that not only serves the in-situ and reversible tailoring of the upconverted emission via physical methods, but also enable the versatile functionalities such as photomemory and multi-modal temperature sensing. High luminescent contrast that can reach up to 83.7 % before and after the 405 nm irradiation has been realized on the basis of the photochromic phenomenon of the as-prepared (Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 ) 0.96 Er 0.04 Bi 2 Nb 2 O 9.02 sample, and the fundamental application in the photomemory has been exhibited. Moreover, the performances of triple-mode thermometry built on the fluorescent intensity ratio techniques ( 2 H 11/2 / 4 S 3/2 and 4 S 3/2 / 4 F 9/2 ) as well as the lifetime of the 4 S 3/2 excited state of the Er 3+ ion have been investigated in carefulness, with the maximal relative sensitivities of 1.22 % K −1 at 300 K, 0.92 % K −1 at 510 K, and 0.18 % K −1 at 450 K, respectively. Our results provide significant insights into the methodology of physically modulating the upconversion luminescence, and offer a glamorous pathway for multifunctional high-end applications.

Strong, stretchable, and durable biomaterials with shape memory properties can be useful in different biomedical devices, tissue engineering, and soft robotics. However, it is challenging to combine these features. Semi-crystalline polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been used to make hydrogels by conventional methods such as freeze–thaw and chemical crosslinking, but it is formidable to produce strong materials with adjustable properties. Herein, a method to induce crystallinity and produce physically crosslinked PVA hydrogels via applying high-concentration sodium hydroxide into dense PVA polymer is introduced. Such a strategy enables the production of physically crosslinked PVA biomaterial with high mechanical properties, low water content, resistance to injury, and shape memory properties. It is also found that the developed PVA hydrogel can recover 90% of plastic deformation due to extension upon supplying water, providing a strong contraction force sufficiently to lift objects 1100 times more than their weight. Cytocompatibility, antifouling property, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility are also demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. The fabrication methods of PVA-based catheters, injectable electronics, and microfluidic devices are demonstrated. This gelation approach enables both layer-by-layer and 3D printing fabrications.

Full density TiC reinforced Cu matrix composites are fabricated by electropulsing-assisted flash sintering within 40 s. The addition of TiC significantly increases the hardness of the sintered sample. However, liquid Cu does not wet stoichiometric TiC, leading to a poor interface bonding strength between TiC and Cu, thus the tensile strength of the sintered sample is destroyed. By adding a small amount of Ti, the bonding strength of the interface between TiC and Cu can be effectively optimized, thereby the mechanical strength of the samples is improved, showing an increased hardness and tensile strength . Skillfully use the relationship between hardness and tensile strength curve to intuitively show the bonding strength of the micro interface from the macro characteristics. The reaction between dissolved Ti and stoichiometric TiC and the decomposition of stoichiometric TiC cause the formation of near-surface non-stoichiometric TiC x ( x < 1) with a marked metal-like electronic structure, which is the fundamental reason for the optimization of the interface bonding between TiC particles and Cu matrix. In the process of powder metallurgy , it is a promising strategy to enhance the composite materials by adjusting the stoichiometry of ceramic to form metal-like electronic structure and alter the bonding strength of ceramic/metal interface.

Effects of silane and silica enrichment of carbon fibers (CFs) on interfacial properties of methylphenylsilicone resin (MPSR) composites were investigated. CFs were oxidized, grafted with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) and then modified with silica nanoparticles prepared by the sol-gel polymerization of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). Chemical structures of CFs were characterized by confirming the successful grafting. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed a uniform distribution of silica nanoparticles on the CFs surface. The interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and impact toughness of silanized CF (CF-Siloxane) composites were 12.05% and 7.46% higher than those of untreated composites. However, ILSS and impact toughness of the hybrid fiber (CF/Si) composites obtained from the hydrolysis of different concentrations TEOS improved significantly, especially for grafting silica enrichment with the TEOS concentration of 0.05 mol/L (CF/Si0.05), increasing 45.64% in ILSS and 29.59% in impact properties. Moreover, the hydrothermal aging resistance was also improved greatly. Meanwhile, functionalization processes did not decrease fiber tensile strength .

A nano-carbon composite, consisting of a graphene aerogel-carbon nanotube (CNT) film, is constructed by coating a strong and flexible CNT film onto the surface of a porous graphene aerogel core. The prepared gradient composite, ultralight and strong, can carry objects more than 15,000 times its own weight, exhibiting impressive compression resistance. Compared to the original graphene aerogel , the composite exhibits 8–9-fold increased values in its elastic modulus and compressive strength at a strain of 20% and an approximately 10-fold increase in electrical conductivities in the axial direction . In addition, the elastic recovery ability after compressive deformation and the ability to preserve liquid are also improved.
