Increasing electromagnetic (EM) radiation has driven the rapid development of carbon-based EM wave absorption materials, but the design of light-weight and efficient carbon-based materials remains a huge challenge. Herein, N -doped carbon fibers embedded with CoNi alloy particles (CoNi/C fibers) were synthesized via electrospinning technology and carbonization . Then, conductive polypyrrole-coated CoNi/C fibers (CoNi/C@PPy composites) were synthesized by chemical polymerization. As-synthesized CoNi/C@PPy composites showed outstanding EM wave absorption property due to the synergistic effect between CoNi, N -doped carbon fibers and PPy. The optimal reflection loss (RL) is -68.78 dB (12.90 GHz) with the thickness of 2.43 mm and the low filler loading of 15 wt%. The widest effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) is 5.62 GHz with the thickness of 2.10 mm and the low filler loading of 20 wt%. The outstanding EM wave absorption property is mainly attributed to 3D network structure, great impedance matching and strong dielectric loss. The results showed that embedding magnetic alloy particles in carbon fibers coated with conductive polymers is an effective strategy for constructing efficient lightweight EM wave absorption materials.

Photothermal ablation could be considered an effective treatment for tumors, but accurate administration and enrichment of photothermal agents remain a huge challenge. Herein, a mussel-inspired photothermal polymeric hydrogel (PPH) was synthesized through a ferric iron-triggered simultaneous metal–catechol coordination reaction and oxidative polymerization of covalently linked pyrrole. The PPH with rapid gelation (less than 10 s) exhibited high photothermal conversion efficiency (49.3%), which enabled effective hyperthermal therapy in situ. Besides, the introduced iron could be used as a T2-weighted contrast agent for real-time MR imaging to explore the retention and bio-degradation of PPH in vivo. Overall, our findings evidence that the resultant PPH, which possesses potential application in tumor ablation in situ, and metal–catechol coordination strategy inspired by mussel adhesion may stimulate biomedical hydrogel development.

2D conductive metal–organic frameworks (2D c-MOFs) naturally possess high active sites, large specific surface areas, and fast ion transport for energy-storage devices. However, the intelligent exploration of 2D c-MOFs for the emerging flexible transparent supercapacitors (FTSCs) with excellent photoelectric property and electrochemical activity is rarely implemented. Herein, 2D conductive ultrathin Cu 3 (HHTP) 2 (HHTP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene) film is synthesized on the indium tin oxide/polyethylene terephthalate (ITO/PET) substrate for flexible transparent conductive electrodes (FTCEs) through the layer-by-layer assembly method. The interconnected conductive frameworks possess the cooperative superiority of low internal resistance, fast electrolyte ion diffusion, and quick electron transfer. Cu 3 (HHTP) 2 -15/ITO/PET FTCEs show high photoelectric property of T 550 nm = 82.2% and R s = 49.1 Ω sq −1 , and high areal capacitance ( C A ) of 1700 µF cm −2 . The corresponding symmetrical FTSCs ( T 550 nm = 62.1%) exhibit excellent C A of 939.2 µF cm −2 at the current density of 7 µA cm −2 , superior rate capability (63.9% at 150 µA cm −2 ), long-term cycling stability (85% after 3000 cycles), and mechanical flexibility under different bending angles. This work provides key insights into the design and synthesis of 2D c-MOF films for flexible transparent energy-storage devices.

Cationic separating the with different valence states is greatly desirable but technically challenging. Achieving such a precise separation using membranes requires accurately distinguishing tiny differences of cations on physico-chemical properties. Here, inspired by the ion dehydration effect, a series of cation exchange membrane with adjustable surface hydrophobicity based on quaternized polypyrrole were prepared. We demonstrate that improving hydrophobicity of modified layer substantially hinder cations with higher hydration energy to enter the modified layer due to their stronger binding ability with water molecules. When applied in electro-driven cation separation, the optimal membrane exhibited an outstanding perm-selectivity between monovalent and divalent cations (P Na Mg = 12.95, P Li Mg = 1.28) than commercial monovalent cation perm-selective membrane (P Na Mg = 2.46, P Li Mg = 1.07). Overall, our results indicate that the hydrophobicity of the modified layer governs the cations dehydration behavior through the polymeric pores due to ion-pore wall interactions, providing the scientific basis for the construction of membranes with high monovalent cation perm-selectivity.

The irreversible electroactivity degradation is a key and broad issue for conducting polypyrrole (PPy). PPy degradation involves chemical and electrochemical processes affected by various factors, including doping anions, electrolyte pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature ( T ), electrode potential, etc. This study probes into the effect of T on electroactivity degradation of PPy in 0.5 M NaOH. Increasing the T (25~80 o C), the degradation kinetics of PPy remains the same first-order relationship, while the degradation rate constant is significantly affected, which shows a maximum value in 50 o C deaerated or 70 o C aerated NaOH, respectively. In deaerated NaOH, the open circuit potential of PPy becomes very negative to reach a reduction state with increasing T , which may restrain penetration of OH - ions into PPy film to inhibit the degradation in its interior. In aerated NaOH, the concentration of DO lowers with increasing T to suppresses the electrochemical process in PPy degradation and decrease its degradation. DO still plays a crucial role in the PPy degradation process at high T . A thorough understanding of the effect of electrolyte T on electroactivity degradation of PPy would offer valuable concepts for in-depth and comprehensive insights into the mechanisms and kinetics of PPy degradation.

Cellulose-based materials have attracted tremendous interest recently due to their fascinating merits of renewability, biodegradability, and low cost, holding great promise in electromagnetic protection, clean energy harvesting, and thermal management. However, the simple and effective integration of multiple functions into single cellulose material remains a challenge. Herein, we report the fabrication of a multifunctional and superhydrophobic cellulose composite paper (CCP) via coated MXene modified by in-situ polymerized polypyrrole and PDMS/candle soot on the opposite surface of the paper. CCP exhibits high-performance electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (~40 dB) while maintaining high electrical conductivity (1467 S/m). Moreover, the superhydrophobic surface of CCP can be used as the hydraulic triboelectric nanogenerator (H-TENG) to harvest water energy due to the liquid–solid contact triboelectrification and electrostatic induction. The hydraulic triboelectric energy can be captured and released when water droplets drop from a height of 2 cm and roll at a tilt angle of 20°, the output current can reach a peak of 0.8 nA. Furthermore, the surface saturation temperature of CCP can reach 140 °C with a low applied voltage of 6 V enabled by the Joule effect. Thus, CCP holds great potentials in applications of integrated smart electronics, clean energy harvesting, and thermal management.

Highly conductive and elastic three-dimensional (3D) porous carbon materials are ideal platforms to fabricate electrodes for high-performance compressible supercapacitors. Herein, a robust, highly conductive, and elastic carbon foam (CF) hybrid material is reported, which is fabricated by integrating cellulose nanofiber/multiwalled carbon nanotube (CNF/MWCNT) aerogel sheets with a melamine sponge (MS), followed by carbonization. The carbonized CNF/MWCNT aerogel sheets contribute to the high conductivity and specific surface area of the CF, and the 3D network-like skeleton derived from the carbonization of the MS enhances the elasticity and stability of the CF. More importantly, the CF possesses good scalability, allowing the introduction of electroactive materials such as polypyrrole (PPy) and Fe3O4 to fabricate high-performance compressible PPy–CF and Fe3O4–CF electrodes. Moreover, an assembled PPy–CF//Fe3O4–CF device shows reversible charging–discharging at a voltage of 1.6 V and demonstrates a high specific capacitance (172.5 F/g) and an outstanding energy density (59.9 W h/kg). The device exhibits capacitance retention rates reaching 98.3% and stable energy storage characteristics even under different degrees of compressive deformation. This study offers a scalable strategy for fabricating high-performance compressible supercapacitors, thereby providing a new means of satisfying the energy storage needs of portable electronic devices that are prone to deformation.

Herein, PPy@MnO2 nanocomposites were first harvested by anchoring MnO2 nanosheets on polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles via an in situ redox reaction, then polyethylene glycol (PEG) modifier and methylene blue (MB) photosensitizer were linked through electrostatic interactions to obtain PPy@MnO2-PEG-MB nanoarchitectures. PPy nanoparticles ensure photothermal therapy (PTT) ability and MnO2 nanosheets ameliorate tumor hypoxia for enhanced photodynamic therapy (PDT). Therefore, a multifunctional nanotherapeutic system was constructed for the combined PTT/PDT of tumors. For extracellular photothermal properties, the optimal temperature elevation was 52.6 °C with 54.4% photothermal conversion efficiency. The extracellular PDT ability was measured by detecting 1O2 generation; more 1O2 was produced under acidic conditions in the presence of H2O2 (a simulated tumor microenvironment). The effective cellular uptake of the nanotherapeutic system in HeLa cells was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). CLSM also indicated that more 1O2 was generated by the nanotherapeutic system as compared to free MB in HeLa cells, confirming the amelioration of tumor hypoxia by MnO2 nanosheets. MTT assays demonstrated that the nanotherapeutic system possessed superior biocompatibility without laser irradiation, and the lowest cell viabilities for single PTT and PDT groups were 13.78%, 38.82% respectively, while there was only 1.29% cell viability in the combined PTT and PDT group. These results suggest that the strategy of assembling PPy with MnO2 for a multifunctional PTT and enhanced PDT nanoplatform was realized, and opens up an unimpeded approach for integrating photothermal reduction materials with MnO2 for use in synergistic PTT and PDT.

Textile-based supercapacitors have attracted much attention due to advantages of excellent flexibility, low-cost and small volume. In this study, a quasi-solid-state flexible supercapacitor was designed and manufactured using wolfram carbide (WC)@fiberglass cloth as substrate and electrodeposition PPy (polypyrrole) on it. The wolfram carbide enhanced the electrical conductivity and wettability of the fiberglass cloth, and PPy grow on WCF through electrochemical deposition can create advantageous ion channel. The fabricated PPy@WCF electrode possesses a high areal specific capacitance of 1796.12 mF cm −2 at 2 mA cm −2 , and the as-prepared device shows a high specific capacitance 456.19 mF cm −2 , with an excellent energy density of 40.55 μWh cm −2 . In addition, the supercapacitor achieves a high capacitance retention of 80.03% after 10,000 charge and discharge cycles and 98.94% after 1000 bending cycles (at the bending angle of 180°). Three devices were connected in series which can power an electronic screen and illume ten LED lights favourably, indicating excellent practical application ability.

Covalent bond usually ensures a stable connection between nonmetallic atoms. However, the traditional reflux method usually requires the construction of complex instruments and equipment with tedious steps to ensure airtightness and reaction stability. In this work, an advanced method is adopted to bind core–shell CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy and rGO tightly via the aid of 2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethanamine (PyEA), dispense with a high-temperature environment or protective gas . Cobalt ferrite core and polypyrrole shell collaborate to approach suitable magnetic and conduction loss, while reduced graphene oxide usually provides a stable sheet structure for interface multiple reflections, and replenish the insufficient dielectric loss. The filled biscuit-shaped covalently bond CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy-rGO has a fantastically broad absorption bandwidth of 13.12 GHz under the thickness of 3.6 mm, together with a minimum reflection loss of −50.1 dB at 6.56 GHz, achieving both impedance matching and attenuation matching, and effectively responding to all electromagnetic waves in the X and Ku bands. Thus, the covalently bonded CoFe 2 O 4 @PPy-rGO has potential application in broadband absorption.

A novel salicylic acid (SA) molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) has been synthesized successfully by a surface imprinting technique based on the SBA-15 nanoreactor. SBA-15, selected as the nanoreactor for immobilizing the monomers and template molecules, would be an option to develop a new SA imprinting strategy. The obtained imprinted materials were characterized by Fourier transmission infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms. The results suggested that MIP possessed an excellent ordered hexagonal mesoporous structure, which preserved the highly ordered mesoporous structure of SBA-15. Experimental variables influencing the adsorption process, including the initial pH, initial concentration and temperature, were optimized by the three-level Box–Behnken experimental design with the three factors combining the response surface method (RSM) for the first time. The optimal adsorption conditions were obtained to achieve the maximum adsorption capacity of SA as follows: initial solution pH 4.62, initial SA concentration 52.38 mg L−1, and temperature 35.0 °C. Under these conditions, the experimental value of the adsorption capacity was 44.435 mg g−1, which was very close to the predicted value (43.429 mg g−1). Furthermore, the adsorption isotherm and selectivity towards SA onto MIP and non-imprinted polymer (NIP) were investigated, indicating that MIP had splendid recognizing ability and a superior specific adsorption capacity (145.19 mg g−1) compared to that of NIP (64.30 mg g−1) at 35 °C. Meanwhile, MIP was regenerated and found to be suitable for reuse in successive adsorption–desorption cycles five times without significant loss in the adsorption capacity. The results suggested that MIP could be used as an excellent adsorbent for the efficient removal of SA from aqueous solution.

Solar-driven steam generation is anticipated as one of the most promising and inventive technologies to address the primitive issues of water shortage. Although extensive attempts have been made to develop highly efficient solar steam generators, hindrances are faced to integrate all desired functions in a single evaporating system. Herein, we designed semiconductive in situ-polymerized MnO2 nanowires/chitosan (SPM-CH) hydrogels as flexible, built-in, vertically aligned, macropore-based water channels (∼0.5 μm pore size) for enhanced solar water generation (17.02 kg m–2 in 1 day). The nonradiative relaxation-dependent defect engineering of SPM-CH hydrogel promotes more lattice vibrations, and its polymeric network endorses the formation of enhanced intermediate water clusters for vapor generation. The self-floating and salt-resistant device possesses an excellent evaporation rate (1.78 kg m–2 h–1) during a single sunny day along with efficient solar energy conversion efficiency (90.6%) under 1 sun intensity, good solar absorption (94%), and good compressing flexibility (42% compressive strain). Moreover, COMSOL Multiphysics simulations of SPM-CH hydrogels under experimental conditions reveal its superior centralized heat accumulation within the top-interface matrix. The single-step execution for a freshwater supply purified from various contaminations including industrial wastewater and oil-emulsified water shows its potential as a reusable device toward real-life applications.
