Fiber-shaped supercapacitors (FSC), among the most promising next-generation flexible energy storage devices, attract tremendous attention due to their high power density and rapid charging and discharging. However, their practical application is hindered by the low energy density that results from inferior specific capacitance and a limited voltage window. Herein, we design a flexible fiber-shaped asymmetric supercapacitor (FASC) with high energy density using vanadium nitride (VN) nanowires (NWs) on carbon nanotube fiber (CNTF) as negative electrode and ultrathin Ni(OH)2 nanosheet wrapped nickel cobalt oxide (NiCo2O4) to form a hierarchical nanowire array (HNWA) structure on CNTF as positive electrode. As-assembled FASC device has a maximum operational voltage of 1.6 V, with a highest areal capacitance of 291.9 mF/cm2 (106.1 F/cm3) and an energy density of 103.8 μWh/cm2 (37.7 mW/cm3). The FASC device possesses excellent reliability and achieves a retaining capacitance of more than 90% after 3000 bending cycles, which boosts practical applications for next-generation flexible energy storage devices.

SrWO 4 :Eu 3+ nanowires were synthesized at 160 °C within 10 min via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. In examining the influences of synthesis temperature and reaction time on the morphology of nanowires, it was found that any temperatures and reaction time except 160 °C and 10 min gave rise to poorer morphologies under otherwise equal conditions. The synthesized nanowires were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray(EDX) and Raman spectrometry, respectively. The results suggest that the samples are homogenous and dispersive single phase nanowires. The photoluminescence properties of the nanowires were determined with a spectrofluorometer. Two obviously sharp peaks at 395 and 464 nm and a broad peak centered at 290 nm were found in their excitation spectrum. Under excitation at 395 and 464 nm, the 5

SiC nanowires (SiC nws ) modified SiC f /HfC-SiC composites were prepared by precursor infiltration and pyrolysis (PIP) and chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) methods. The microstructure, flexural strengths, impact and impact-ablation tests of the composites with and without SiC nws were investigated. The results showed that after introducing SiC nws , not only the retention rate of HfC ceramic produced by PIP was increased obviously, but also the fracture displacement of the modified composites was reduced due to the enhancement effect of SiC nws at interface between SiC fiber and matrix. After impact and impact-ablation, the strength retention of SiC nws modified composites was 91.6 % and 69.1 % respectively, higher than that of the composites without SiC nws (85.2 % and 54.8 %). As the impact resistance of the modified composites was improved by the pull-out and bridging of SiC nws , the ablation resistance of the impacted composites was enhanced as well.

The spontaneous growth of metal whiskers has long posed reliability challenges in electronic devices, often resulting in short-circuit failures. Recent findings on the rapid and extensive formation of tin (Sn) whiskers on Ti₂SnC substrates underscore the critical role of atomized Sn in whisker growth. In this study, mechanochemically decomposed Ti₂SnC, capable of quantitatively and efficiently generating large amounts of atomized Sn, was implanted to Sn, Bi, and Pb metal matrices. After three days of being annealed at 60 °C, numerous whiskers grown on all implanted matrices, proving the critical role of atomized Sn in whisker growth. Notably, SnBi bimetallic and solid solution whiskers were detected. TEM analysis proved that the formation of SnBi whiskers was caused by the released latent heat of crystallizing atomized Sn, which creates SnBi micro-melt pools at the interface, facilitating interface flow and supplying the necessary constituents for SnBi bimetallic and solid solution whisker formation. Likewise, SnPb bimetallic whiskers were observed in Pb matrices implanted with the mechanochemical decomposed Ti 2 SnC. These findings provide two contrasting strategies for future applications: effectively suppressing whisker formation and intentionally synthesizing bimetallic nanowires.

Chevrel phase (CP) molybdenum sulfides (Mo 6 S 8 ) have attracted extensive research attention in the field of energy conversion and storage due to their unique electronic structures and rich open channels. However, comprehensive understanding of intrinsic kinetic mechanisms governing the electrocatalytic bi-functional hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) sensing on CP-based composites is still lacking. Herein, nanosized palladium (Pd) and Mo 6 S 8 particles were assembled in carbon nanowires (C NWs) via electrospinning followed by pyrolysis. The as-obtained novel Pd-Mo 6 S 8 /C NWs exhibited excellent performance in terms of a low overpotential of −194 mV at η 10 for HER, and an ultrahigh sensitivity of 2231 μA mM −1 cm −2 with a limit of detection of 25 nM for H 2 O 2 sensing. The experimental and theoretical findings demonstrated that Pd and Mo 6 S 8 nanoparticles (NPs) exhibited exceptional catalytic activity and strong electronic interactions. The synergistic effects of these two components could effectively modulate the binding strength of reactants and intermediates on the catalyst surface, ultimately leading to improved electrochemical catalytic performance toward reduction of small molecules. Moreover, verification of the stable tolerance in various environments and good selectivity of the electrocatalyst promoted the further use of Pd-Mo 6 S 8 /C NWs-based electrochemical sensing system for sensing additional H 2 O 2 in milk samples, proving the widespread potential of this material for practical applications. This study significantly advances the understanding of nanoscale and bi-functional CP-based composites.

This work successfully fabricated a novel CNWs/Ni 2 Si/SiOC nanocomposite ceramic material using a single-source-precursor derived ceramic approach. The material exhibits in-situ formation of carbon nanowires (CNWs) and multiple core-shell nanoparticles such as Ni 2 Si@C and SiC@C. The reaction mechanism of the precursor, the microstructure and phase composition, and the ceramics′ electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbing properties were thoroughly investigated and discussed. The obtained CNWs/Ni 2 Si/SiOC nanocomposite ceramics possesses a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of −43.5 dB, indicating excellent EMW absorbing performance. The in-situ formation of CNWs and multi-core-shell nanoparticles (Ni 2 Si@C and SiC@C) in the ceramics play a crucial role in enhancing their EMW absorbing properties compared to pure SiOC ceramics.

The electromagnetic interference and heat accumulation pose a significant challenge for the traditional high-density single-function electromagnetic shielding materials in advanced flexible integrated electronics. Herein, nano-silver flakes (AgNFs, reflective layer), MXene (Ti 3 CNTx, loss layer) and silver nanowires (AgNWs, heat conduction and shielding layer) constructed ordered multi heterogeneous layers high-performance flexible electromagnetic shielding functional composites (AMA composites). Especially the composites exhibited outstanding electromagnetic interference shielding efficiency (EMI SE) of 70.96 dB even with an extremely thin coating of 25 g/m 2 , which is 350% higher than that of the commercial standard (20 dB). It is worth noting that the AMA composites also possessed certain qualities such as superior thermal conductivity , flame retardancy, chemical resistance, high-temperature resistance (25 °C–100 °C), and mechanical properties (tensile strength of 44.4 MPa, Young's modulus of 0.6 GPa). The composites display application possibilities in highly integrated advanced flexible electronic products and wearable electronic devices, as well as provide structural design and research ideas for the usage of a new MXene material (Ti 3 CNTx) in electromagnetic shielding composite materials.

The exploration of catalysts with high activity and low cost for water splitting is still necessary. Herein, a nanowire-like morphology CoO/NF electrode is synthesized using facile hydrothermal reaction and calcination treatment. The urea can regulate its morphology during the synthetic process of CoO/NF. Electrochemical studies reveal that the as-obtained CoO/NF exhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance with overpotential of 307 mV at current density of 10 mA cm −2 and Tafel slope of 72 mV dec −1 for oxygen evolution reaction , and CoO/NF delivers current density of 10 mA cm −2 at overpotential of 224 mV for hydrogen evolution reaction . The results of the oxygen evolution reaction stability show that the overpotential of CoO/NF electrode is only increased by 4 mV at current density of 10 mA cm −2 . The two-electrode water splitting with CoO/NF electrodes as both anode and cathode needs a cell potential of 1.76 V to reach 10 mA cm −2 . Therefore, this simple method to prepare CoO/NF electrode can enhance the properties of electrocatalysts , which makes CoO/NF a promising material to replace noble metal-based catalysts.

Due to the wider bandgap and low electron discharge capacity, the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) shows low photocatalytic performance compared with conventional semiconductor materials. To enhance the photocatalytic activity of ZIF-8, the ZIF-8@AgNWs composite is synthesized via the in situ growth method using silver nanowires (AgNWs) as the photo-enhanced material. The obtained ZIF-8@AgNWs exhibit the fully encapsulated shell-core structure of ZIF-8-AgNWs. The UV−vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) analysis shows that the addition of AgNWs leads to a significant increase in light absorption of the ZIF-8@AgNWs composite, and the bandgap of the ZIF-8@AgNWs is 2.9 eV, with a significant decrease compared to pure ZIF-8 (4.96 eV). The ZIF-8@AgNWs-2 achieves the best photocatalytic activity for methylene blue (MB) degradation. Its degradation efficiency reaches 94%, and its apparent rate constant is 0.04371 min −1 . Herein, a novel strategy for the MOF-based photocatalytic materials with higher photocatalytic activity is provided.

Nanowire hydrogels with high specific surface areas have great promise in many practical applications. However, the preparation of nanowire hydrogels using common materials and inexpensive means remains an outstanding challenge. This paper reports a novel method for creating aligned nanowire structured hydrogels by directional freezing and γ-radiation initiated polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) using t-butyl alcohol (TBA) as the solvent. The hydrogels prepared at a monomer concentration lower than 2.0 mol L–1 and a freezing rate higher than 10 mm min–1 are structured of nanowires, mimicking the microstructure of jellyfish mesogloea. Silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) are introduced into the hydrogels with a chemical reduction method, and the Ag NPs are formed and deposited on the nanowires. Both size and content of Ag NPs in the hydrogels increase with increasing AgNO3 concentration. The PHEMA and PHEMA/Ag nanocomposite hydrogels all possess very good compressive properties, and the composite hydrogels show higher compressive strengths and excellent deformation recovery. The PHEMA/Ag NPs composite hydrogels show excellent catalytic activity and reusability for the conversion of o-nitroaniline to 1,2-benzenediamine, with an apparent rate constant (kapp) up to 0.165 min–1. This facile and efficient method can be applied to fabricate more nanowire hydrogels for many practical applications.

Enhanced microwave absorption properties of porous PDC-SiC/Si 3 N 4 ceramics were successfully prepared through in situ growth of Si 3 N 4 nanowires (NWs) by the unidirectional freeze casting of Si 3 N 4 /camphene slurries with various polycarbosilane (PCS) contents at 1400 °C in N 2 . Si 3 N 4 NWs were in situ formed in the pore channels via a vapor-solid (VS) mechanism, the content of Si 3 N 4 NWs increased with increasing of PCS content, which tailored the microstructure and mechanical property of porous PDC-SiC/Si 3 N 4 ceramics. With the increase of PCS content, the minimum reflection coefficient (RC) of porous PDC-SiC/Si 3 N 4 ceramic decreased from −20.2 dB to −56.2 dB, and the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) increased from 5.3 to 7 GHz, demonstrating that the porous PDC-SiC/Si 3 N 4 ceramics decorated with Si 3 N 4 NWs had a superior microwave-absorbing ability, which could be ascribed to the electronic dipole polarization and interfacial scattering enhanced by the various interfaces among Si 3 N 4 , in-situ formed PDC-SiC nanograins, nanosized carbon and Si 3 N 4 NWs phases. These findings provide significance guidance in the development of new broadband EM absorbing materials.

Novel BN mesoporous nanowire materials with doped oxygen atoms have been controlled and prepared successfully. Multiple techniques have been employed to determine the structure, morphology, surface feature, defects, and electronic structure. It was the first time that a controlled preparation of this unique structure was applied to adsorptive desulfurization. The obtained BN mesoporous nanowires displayed outstanding adsorptive desulfurization activity for DBT (65.4 mg S g–1 adsorbent according to the Langmuir isotherm model), which was much higher than that of commercial BN and graphene-like BN. At the same time, the BN mesoporous nanowires displayed good stability and excellent adsorption performance for the 4,6-DMDBT (33.2 mg S g–1 adsorbent). The significant enhancement of adsorption desulfurization performance of BN mesoporous nanowires was ascribed to the large number of low coordinated atoms along the nanowire surface and mesopores, which could cause an interaction with DBT, and the doped oxygen atoms further strengthen the interaction.
