MoSi 2 -MoB-ZrO 2 composite powders are one-step synthesized prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS), which are further utilized to prepare the oxidation protective coatings by spark plasma sintering (SPS) method on molybdenum substrate. Microstructure and properties of the coatings were investigated and determined. Oxidation behavior of the coatings at high temperature was also studied. The results showed that the composite coating is dense and crack-free due to the addition of ZrO 2 , which is beneficial for the decrease of mismatch in coefficient of thermal expansion, and no void exists in the diffusion layer owing to the diffusion of Si, which is inhibited by adding MoB. Compared with the pure MoSi2 coating, the high hardness of the composite coating is enhanced by about 20% while the fracture toughness of the composite coating is improved by about 25%, which makes the occurrence of intergranular fracture , crack deflection and crack bridging. After oxidation at 1400 °C for 80 h, MoSi 2 coating failed while xMoSi 2 -MoB-3ZrO 2 (x = 3, 4, 5) composite coating still kept its protective effect. Only a little substrate is consumed during oxidation and improved oxidation resistance is gained by MoSi 2 -MoB-ZrO 2 composite coating. 3MoSi 2 -MoB-3ZrO 2 coating shows the relatively best oxidation resistance due to the formation of crack-free oxide film on the surface of the coating.

The use of garnet-type conductors as electrolytes for safe lithium solid-state batteries is impeded by the lack of critical processing strategy to stabilize and densify the cubic lithium garnets. The synthesis and processing of dense cubic lithium garnets are typically depending on solid state reaction as a result of unintentional Al contamination from the alumina crucibles at temperatures up to 1230 °C. High Al concentration is also believed to induce the sluggish migration of lithium ions . Here, we demonstrate an ultrathin, conformal γ-Al 2 O 3 surface coating on garnet solids by a hybrid microemulsion solid-state method for accomplishing rational and controllable synthesis and processing of dense cubic garnets with low Al concentration. The γ-Al 2 O 3 coating demonstrates fast-ion conducting Al-doped Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 phase with low Al concentration (~0.17 mol per formula unit), low tetragonal-to-cubic phase transformation temperature of 500 °C, and total conductivity of ~4.4 × 10 − 4 S cm − 1 . Specifically, the desired microstructures of the sintered pellets with uniform grains are revealed. As a proof-of-concept, we demonstrate that the nanoscale γ-Al 2 O 3 modification garnet conductor Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 is available to suppress lithium dendrites in symmetric Li/γ-Al 2 O 3 coating Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 /Li cells during lithium plating/stripping at room temperature, with current densities of 0.026 to 0.5 mA cm − 2 . The Li/γ-Al 2 O 3 coating Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 /LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O 2 cell delivered a high initial discharge capacity of ~164.2 mAh g − 1 , more importantly, an outstanding cycling performance with a capacity retention of 90.16% after 30 cycles at 0.1C and room temperature. This new synthesis route and the utilization of nanoscale γ-Al 2 O 3 surface modification could open up new avenue to lithium garnet conductors with reliable synthesis for all-solid-state lithium batteries application.

A facile method to prepare surface self-concentration antibacterial coating with contact-killing mechanism was developed. Photo curable quaternary ammonium compound QAC bearing a 16-carbon alkyl chain and a terminal methacrylate was synthesized as reactive antibacterial additive. After UV irradiation, QAC was crosslinked in the soy-based coating matrix. With proper amounts of QAC, the UV cured coatings exhibited good properties such as high glossiness, good hardness and fine adhesion to cherrywood substrates. The self-concentration property of QAC on the cured coating surface, which is beneficial to reserve the physical properties of the bulk materials and to improve the surface antibacterial activity, was confirmed by fluorescence and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Moreover, the introduction of QAC provided the coatings with superhydrophilicity property as well as good anti-fog capacity. The coatings with 8 wt% of QAC (charge density = 8.6 mol cm−2) exhibited almost 100% antibacterial activity against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli by 5 log reduction. The contact-killing mechanism of coatings was confirmed via the zone of inhibition tests. The straightforward preparation combined with excellent antibacterial property makes the QAC containing coatings quite promising in antibacterial coatings realm and is suitable for industrial-scale manufacturing.

Although various eco-friendly and sustainable biobased polyurethane-coated controlled-release fertilizers (BPCFs) have been developed, their applications were limited by the bio-based coating contained many microscopic holes. In this work, a nano-soy-protein microcapsule-enabled self-healing biopolyurethane-coated controlled-release fertilizer (NSBCF) with enhanced controlled-release performance was fabricated. Nanoscale soy-protein microcapsules (SMCs) were prepared from soy-protein isolate (SPI) and poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) using the water-oil-water emulsification technology. The self-healing biopolymer coatings of NSBCF with uniformly dispersed SMCs were constructed through self-assembly. The controlled-release longevity of NSBCF was >28 days longer than that of the BPCF with the unmodified coating. The self-healing mechanism of NSBCF was determined by directly observing the restoration area and the 3D pore distribution of coating using fluorescence labeling and X-ray computed tomography . After being released from the SMCs, SPI self-repaired the coating by reacting with glutaraldehyde to form solid resins to clog the microscopic holes. The SMCs-enabled self-healing process successfully reduced the nutrient release rate and extended the nutrient release longevity of NSBCF. This novel biobased controlled-released fertilizer with self-healing function represents a new direction for the development of high efficiency and environmentally friendly fertilizers to improve agriculture and food sustainability .

Dissolutions of the polymer in the chaotropic salts follow Hofmeister effect, and the aggregate of salts and solvents shows new influence of the Hofmeister effect. Here, we reveal the aggregation of ion–solvent in chaotropic salt solution catalyzes the formation of the exposed Lewis acid-base center and realizes the dissolution of polyamide (PA) macromolecules. The relationship between Hofmeister effect, aggregate chemistry and Lewis acid-base chemistry is examined from new perspective. And then, a new solvent system and phase conversion process are designed for polyamides. Finally, the applications of PA in ZIBs as coating layer and binder are realized. As an electrode coating, it can effectively inhibit hydrogen evolution, corrosion and dendrite problems and improve the cycle life (cycle over 1500 h at 0.5 mA cm −2 ). As a binder, the active material adhesion on current collector, uniformity and wettability of the electrode are improved. The assembled pouch-cell with PANI cathode shows a capacity of 150 mAh g −1 after 120 cycles. This work reveals the secret of controlled phase transformation of polyamide in saline solution from a new perspective. And this phase conversion method is simpler, greener and more environmentally friendly, which greatly accelerates the application of polyamide in the field of membrane science and binder science.

Ni-rich cathodes especially with Ni content over 90 % are promising next-generation cathode materials for advanced high energy lithium − ion batteries. However, in comparison with Ni ≤ 80 % Ni-rich cathodes, these ultrahigh Ni-rich materials face more severe challenges in terms of harmful H2 − H3 phase transformations and structural degradation during cycling. Herein, we present a robust surface structure composted of defect-rich disordered structures and LiF/Li 2 SiO 3 coating for stabilizing the ultrahigh Ni-rich cathode LiNi 0.96 Co 0.03 Mn 0.01 O 2 (NCM96) by modification with (NH 4 ) 2 SiF 6 . The surface disordered structures including Li/TM mixing, spinel, and rock salt structure play a crucial role in inhibiting the irreversible H2-H3 phase transition and reducing lattice volume changes by lattice coherence effect. Moreover, the disordered surface in collaboration with the co-coating restrains the rapid growth of surface rock salt phase into the bulk, enhancing structural stability. The modified sample NSF-0.5 delivers a capacity of 238 mAh/g at 0.1C and maintains a capacity retention of 88.5 % at 0.5C after 100 cycles in half cell as well as 82.3 % at 1C after 300 cycles in full cell, significantly superior to the NCM96. The findings provide a simple and cost-effective surface modification strategy to enhance the structural stability and electrochemical performance of ultrahigh nickel cathodes for high-energy density LIBs.

A new organic-inorganic composite coating was generated on AZ31 alloy surface with sol-gel method to improve the anti-corrosion performance and biocompatibility of AZ31 alloy in the physiological environment. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization , pH variations in modified-simulated body fluid (m-SBF) demonstrated that the silane/Mg(OH) 2 composite coating significantly enhanced the anti-corrosion ability and slowed down the degradation of AZ31 alloy under in vitro condition. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that the major composition of in-situ formation layer was Mg(OH) 2 . The surface morphology , chemical and phase constitutions of the composite coating were detected using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrated that the composite coating was uniform and defect-free. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) was also employed to characterize the corrosion products of all specimens immersed in m-SBF after 30 days. MTT and ALP tests indicated that the composite coating greatly enhanced the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts on the AZ31 alloy surface.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite coatings doped copper acetate and polyurethane (PU) were prepared on rubber substrate by low-energy electron beam dispersion technique. The effects of dopant and glow discharge treatment on the surface morphology, structure and tribological properties of the coatings were investigated. The results showed that Cu–PTFE composite coatings form uniform surface and dense column structure with spherical aggregations under glow discharge treatment. PU coating shows the large size of protuberance structure but PU–PTFE coating presents spherical structure. Both of the coatings become relative dense and smooth after discharge treatment, and Cu–PU–PTFE composite coatings possess a smoother surface and lower polar component of surface energy. Cu doping weakens the crystallinity and ordering degree of composite coatings, but glow discharge increases the ordering degree and branched structure of C―H groups. Friction experiment indicated that Cu fails to improve the wear resistance of PTFE coatings but glow discharge treatment can do it. Cu–PU–PTFE coatings after discharge treatment have the higher wear resistance and lower coefficient of friction. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Flexible silicone materials have excellent elastic properties and can maintain excellent structural stability under high-intensity repeated deformation. They are ideal materials for preparing piezoresistive flexible sensors. However, traditional silicone materials exhibit strong insulation properties. The solid block structure is also not conducive to improving sensitivity. Inspired by the irregular hole structure of Taihu Lake stone, this paper prepared a porous silica gel skeleton (rGO/CTAB/SG) based on reduced graphene oxide film coating, which was equipped with flexible interdigital electrodes to achieve electrical signal derivation. The “honeycomb” shaped sensing module prepared in this way achieves an extremely wide elastic deformation range (20-200%). In the pressure feedback layer, the rGO film is evenly coated on the SG surface, which greatly improves the device conductivity and sensing performance (high sensitivities of 89.4 kPa − 1 and 25.4 kPa − 1 are achieved within 0-30.2 kPa and 30.2–42 kPa, ultra-high durability under more than 22,000 load-unload cycles.) Numerical simulation analysis results confirmed that the structure of the flexible substrate SG prepared by this method maintained well when extreme deformation occurred, and no fracture or stress concentration occurred. As an elastic sensor, after being integrated with a microprocessor, it can easily monitor and analyze human body movement in real time. It has huge potential in areas such as daily training and health monitoring of athletes.

In this study, a Cr coating was fabricated on Ni-based alloys to prevent under-deposit corrosion. The effect of salt deposition on the structural integrity of the Cr coating in SCW environment with/without oxygen was investigated. Results show that the Cr coating kept its integrity after exposure in SCW environment, successfully avoided the metallic ions leaching from Ni-based alloys. The structure of the oxide layer after exposure is a thin Fe 2 O 3 or FeCr 2 O 4 layer and a Cr 2 O 3 layer. The oxidation rate of the Cr coating decreased to one third of the sample after exposure in the same environment without salt deposit layer, indicating that the inward mass-transfer of oxygen to the alloy surface was inhibited by the salt deposit layer. The volume expansion of the sample due to the growth of Cr oxide layer was restrained by the salt deposit layer, forming a growth stress in the coating.

Multi-components and equimolar rare earth monosilicates, (Y 1/3 Dy 1/3 Er 1/3 ) 2 SiO 5 , (Y 1/3 Dy 1/3 Lu 1/3 ) 2 SiO 5 , (Y 1/4 Dy 1/4 Ho 1/4 Er 1/4 ) 2 SiO 5 and (Yb 1/4 Dy 1/4 Ho 1/4 Er 1/4 ) 2 SiO 5 , were prepared by solid-state reactions and the following hot-pressing. Dense microstructures with uniform elemental distributions were obtained for all samples. These investigated multi-components monosilicates exhibit low thermal conductivities and similar coefficients of thermal expansion with SiC. Moreover, they exhibit high corrosion resistances in 1400 °C water vapor , especially, four-components (Y 1/4 Dy 1/4 Ho 1/4 Er 1/4 ) 2 SiO 5 and (Yb 1/4 Dy 1/4 Ho 1/4 Er 1/4 ) 2 SiO 5 experienced almost invariable weights after small weight losses during the initial 0.5 h. All those results indicate that multi-components rare earth monosilicates are promising candidates of environmental barrier coatings for SiC/SiC composites.

A (ZrC/SiC) 35 multilayer alternating coating with 500∼700 nm sublayers thickness and 70 interfaces was deposited on sharp leading edge C/C composites by continuous CVD method. Its mechanical property and ablation resistance were assessed by scratch test and oxy-acetylene flame respectively and compared with ZrC monolayered coating. The (ZrC/SiC) 35 multilayer alternating coating exhibited a high bonding strength via the regulation of sub-micro alternating stress field and the inhibition of crack propagation by 70 interfaces, showing a high critical load L C3 of 22.521 N, which was higher than that of ZrC monolayered coating of 5.688 N. Furthermore, the coating revealed excellent ablation resistance evidenced by its intact oxide layer, and the mass and linear ablation rates were only 0.17 mg/s and 0.87 μm/s respectively. The layer-by-layer oxidation behavior allowed the advantages of ZrC and SiC sublayers to be fully utilized, thus maintaining the layered oxide structure. Furthermore, the total 35 layers of thin ZrO 2 layers improved the fault tolerance ability of coating in harsh ablative environments.
