Flexible triboelectric generators present a wide range of prospective applications owing to their small size, light weight, and wearability; in addition, they can convert external mechanical energy into electrical energy to provide an energy supply for wearable electronic products. In this study, a wearable textile triboelectric generator was developed by weaving polyurethane (PU) nanofiber core-spun yarn and Si 3 N 4 -electret-doped polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofiber core-spun yarn into a double-layer fabric. Within the double-layer fabric, one layer was Si 3 N 4 -doped PVDF (denoted as Si 3 N 4 @PVDF) nanofiber fabric, and the other was PU nanofiber fabric. When subjected to an external mechanical force, PU nanofiber fabric and Si 3 N 4 @PVDF nanofiber fabric came into contact and were able to convert external mechanical energy into electrical energy. The most notable instantaneous electrical performance of this triboelectric nanogenerator was open circuit voltage of 71 V, short-circuit current of 0.7 μA, and output power of 56 μW. Additionally, the wearable textile triboelectric generator exhibited superior washability, stability, and cycle durability. More significantly, it was capable of driving some low-consumption electronic products, including capacitors, LED bulbs, and digital meters, thereby exhibiting a strong potential for flexible self-powered electronic devices and intelligent textiles .

Summary In this study, novel Pt-IrO 2 nanofiber catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) were successfully prepared using the electrospinning method with a high-concentration precursor solution. The composition and structure of catalysts were characterized, and the electrocatalytic performance of the nanofiber catalysts in water electrolysis was investigated from various aspects such as overpotential, charge transfer resistance, and exchange current density. Special attention was paid on the effect of Pt/Ir ratio on the electrocatalytic activity of the electrospun nanofibers. The results showed that the Pt-IrO 2 nanofiber catalysts with average fiber diameters ranging from 10 to 100 nm can be successfully obtained by the electrospinning method, and the average diameter decreased with the increase of Pt content. Since a bigger amount of IrO 2 content and a thinner fiber structure are all beneficial to the electrocatalytic performance, the Pt-IrO 2 catalysts with Pt:Ir = 1:9 and Pt:Ir = 9:1 both showed better catalytic performance for OER than the commercial IrO 2 , which was also demonstrated by the lower charge transfer resistance and higher exchange current density. As a result, the overpotentials of Pt-IrO 2 catalysts with Pt:Ir = 1:9 and Pt:Ir = 9:1 are 50 mV and 32 mV lower than the overpotential of the commercial IrO 2 at 30 mA cm −2 in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 , respectively. The electrospun Pt-IrO 2 nanofiber catalyst with proper Pt content seems to be very promising since it can not only improve the catalytic performance and the safety of PEM electrolysis cells, but also reduce the amount of more expensive Ir in catalysts.

Transition-metal compounds have received extensive attention from researchers due to their high reversible capacity and suitable voltage platform as potassium-ion battery anodes. However, these materials commonly feature a poor conductivity and a large volume expansion, thus leading to underdeveloped rate capability and cyclic stability. Herein, we successfully encapsulated ultrafine CoP and CoSb nanoparticles into rich N-doped carbon nanofibers (NCFs) via electrospinning, carbonization, and phosphorization (antimonization). The N-doped carbon fiber prevents the aggregation of nanoparticles, buffers the volume expansion of CoP and CoSb during charging and discharging, and improves the conductivity of the composite material. As a result, the CoP/NCF anode exhibits excellent potassium-ion storage performance, including an outstanding reversible capacity of 335 mA h g −1 , a decent capacity retention of 79.3% after 1000 cycles at 1 A g −1 and a superior rate capability of 148 mA h g −1 at 5 A g −1 , superior to most of the reported transition-metalbased potassium-ion battery anode materials.

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 .
