Polyurethane (PU) has been widely used as a glue in various areas. However, adhesion in the presence of water is greatly impeded and results in most synthetic adhesive failure. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel PU construction; underwater PU adhesives were created by the incorporation of synthetic glycerol monomethacrylate (GMA). Furthermore, the urethane structure helped the adhesive eliminate the interfacial water barrier through interactions that were stronger than hydrogen bonding, and GMA as a crosslinking agent was used to generate post-covalent-crosslinking networks through radical polymerization. This enhanced the cohesion so the diffusion of water molecules could be overcome. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, underwater adhesion measurements, and tensile tests were used to characterize the chemical and mechanical properties of the as-obtained adhesive. This led to an adhesive with a better mechanical strength and interfacial adhesion in water, and the results show that the mechanical properties (tensile strength, Young's modulus, and tensile elongation) of the GMA–PU adhesive were higher than those of the pure PU. As for the 4% GMA, the tensile strength was enhanced by 24.3% and the elongation was enhanced by 125.23% over those of the pure PU. This confirmed that the incorporation of GMA into the PU matrix indeed induced increasing cohesion, and the sample's adhesive strength was 21.19 ± 3.9 MPa; this indicated a superior adhesive strength over that of the pure PU. In addition, we can foresee that underwater adhesion will play an important role in prospective surgery and engineering areas. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018 , 135 , 46579.

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are the most efficient energy conversion technology to convert the chemical energy of fuels like hydrogen, natural gas, etc. to electricity. However, one of the limiting factors in the commercial viability of SOFCs technologies is the time-consuming and high-cost multiple cell fabrication processes. Here, we report the development of a facile procedure for the preparation of an electrolyte-supported cell with a Ni-Gd 0.1 Ce 0.9 O 1.95 composite anode and a La 0.6 Sr 0.4 Co 0.2 Fe 0.8 O 3-δ cathode, and the fabrication procedure of the electrodes decreases from four steps of screen-printing and sintering of conventional cell preparation processes to two steps of screen-printing using a direct assembly approach without the high-temperature sintering steps. The most important observation is the simultaneous formation of the electrode/electrolyte interfaces of both the anode and cathode by in situ passing a current through the directly assembled cells at 800 ℃. The power density of the directly assembled cell reaches 0.41 W cm −2 at a voltage of 0.7 V and 800 ℃, close to 0.46 W cm −2 of the sintered cell. The directly assembled cell shows comparable operational stability to the sintered cell at 800 ℃ for 100 h. This work sheds light on the facile fabrication of electrolyte-supported cells with substantially simplified preparation procedures and reduced costs.

Polyurethane (PU) composites integrated with outstanding fire retardancy, smoke suppression as well as ameliorated mechanical property is attractive, but remains a challenge. Here, we demonstrate the interfacial architecting of organic–inorganic hybrid (ACAPP) by reacting renewable chitooligosaccharide (COS) with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and ammonium octamolybdate (AOM) via a one-pot, facile and eco-friendly approach. The ACAPP with multiple hydroxyl groups shows good compatibility and strong interfacial adhesion force with PU matrix due to the abundant covalent cross-linking points and hydrogen bonds networks. The incorporation of 15 wt% ACAPP enables the resultant PU composite to achieve a V-0 rating, a limiting oxygen index of 26.1%, 31.1% and 44.8% reduction in total heat release and total smoke production, respectively, far outdistancing conventional APP. The suppressed fire hazards mainly benefits from the synergy catalytic carbonization effect of ACAPP in condensed phase. Moreover, ACAPP reinforces the tensile strength of PU whilst retaining the decent ultimate elongation. This work may offer a referable exemplification for constructing green flame-retardant to balance high fire safety and mechanical properties.

TiO 2 nanoparticles are commonly used as versatile precursors to make functional nanocomposite materials. However, the surface defects at grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanoparticles significantly affect the photoelectric properties of TiO 2 nanomaterials . In this work, we firstly prepared nanocomposites of TiO 2 and polyoxometalates (POMs) in which different POMs, including titanium-substituted POMs K 5 [PW 11 TiO 40 ] and K 7 [PW 10 Ti 2 O 40 ], are incorporated with TiO 2 nanoparticles so as to make an interface modification on grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanoparticles. Then the photoconductivities of the TiO 2 /POM nanocomposites were investigated through measurement of photocurrent responses, current-voltage curves, Mott-Schottky plots and surface photocurrent spectra. Compared with pure TiO 2 nanoparticles, TiO 2 /POM nanocomposites exhibit superior photoelectric properties, benefitting from the interface modification from different POMs. The gas sensing performance for acetone was also explored by use of the as-prepared photoconductive devices, and TiO 2 /PW 11 Ti exhibited a high gas sensing performance.

Polyethyleneimine (PEI) of various molecular weights and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) were utilized to prepare composite nanofiltration (NF) membranes via interfacial polymerization. The changes in the surface structure and chemical composition of the prepared membranes were evaluated using SEM, ATR-FTIR, XPS and surface potential measurements. The pure-water flux and rejection rates of the inorganic salts (MgCl 2 , MgSO 4 , Na 2 SO 4 and NaCl) through the resultant NF membranes were also investigated. The results showed that the performance of the composite NF membranes was significantly affected by the molecular weight of the PEI. Notably, the permeate flux and rejection rate of the NF membranes increased with the PEI molecular weight. In addition, when the NF membranes were used to treat actual wastewater from the electroplating industry, the NF membranes presented high-efficiency separation properties for heavy metal ions. The rejection rates of the NF membranes at 0.4 MPa for chromium, nickel, zinc and copper ions reached 92.6, 89.6, 89.2 and 86.3%, respectively.

As a complex component of crude oil, asphaltenes determine the stability of emulsion . However, the mechanism of asphaltenes stabilize emulsion is still insufficient recognition due to the complexity of the molecular structure of asphaltenes. In this paper, the experiments and dissipative particle dynamics simulations were used to study the interfacial properties of asphaltenes. The adsorption of asphaltenes at the oil–water interface was studied by interfacial tension (IFT) experiments. A realistic molecular structure of asphaltene was constructed on the results of the characterization of the asphaltenes. The effects of asphaltenes concentration, temperature, and shear on the formation and stability of emulsion based on this molecular structure were investigated by simulations. The results show that the IFT decreases as asphaltenes concentration increases, while the droplet size of the emulsion decreases and becomes more uniformly distributed. Increasing the temperature enhances the interfacial activity of the asphaltenes, but also promotes its dissolution in the oil phase, which has a negative effect on reducing the IFT value and the stability of the emulsion. As the shear rate increases , the configuration of the emulsion changes from droplets to ellipsoids and rods, and the structure of the interfacial film is disrupted. This work provides useful insights into the mechanisms of asphaltenes concentration, temperature, and shear on the stability of the emulsion.

Carbonaceous nanoparticles (CNPs), including carbon black, carbon nanotubes, and graphene nanopiece, were selected as nanoadditives for investigating the rheological behavior dependence of their polymer-based composites on morphological and interfacial structure. Polypropylene (PP) was adopted as matrix and a series of contents of CNPs were used for sample compounding. With identical concentration, the morphological structure of CNPs was emphasized as the dominant effect affecting the shear viscosity and the compressibility of PP/CNPs melts. The viscosity dependence on the CNPs contents and physical structure, such as particle size, aspect ratio, and specific area, was fully discussed in this work. The newly-introduced inner voids, induced around the interface region between matrix and CNPs during physical mixing, were contributive to the rheological deviation, which was further reflected from the melt compressibility. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Aqueous zinc metal batteries (AZMBs) as one of the next-generation energy storage technologies have attracted both academic and industrial attention due to their high safety, low cost, and high specific energy, yet are facing interfacial challenges at the electrolyte/anode interface, e.g. uneven physical diffusion of Zn2+ flux, severe chemical corrosion, and disordered electrochemical deposition behavior of the zinc metal anode. To address these issues, herein, we propose a facile and effective electrolyte modulating strategy to construct a physico-chemo-electrochemically coupled stable interface between the aqueous electrolyte and zinc anode. The aqueous electrolyte modified using a tiny amount of water-soluble ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF4) can form a positively charged organic EMIM+ adsorption layer and a protective inorganic Zn2+-conducting layer through the in situ decomposition of BF4− on the zinc anode surface, thus effectively homogenizing the Zn2+ diffusion flux and decreasing the chemical corrosion rate. Moreover, EMIM+ provides an electrostatic shielding layer, leading to the preferential and ordered electrodeposition of Zn2+ along the Zn (002). Benefiting from this physico-chemo-electrochemically multifunctional interfacial layer, the Zn//Zn symmetric cells achieve a considerably extended lifespan of up to 1200 h at 5 mA cm−2 and 5 mA h cm−2, and more than 450 h even at an ultrahigh current density and large deposition capacity (10 mA cm−2 and 10 mA h cm−2). Zn//Cu asymmetric cells also exhibit excellent reversibility with a high coulombic efficiency of 99.75%. Furthermore, the physically, chemically, and electrochemically stabilized interface enables the AZMB with a quinone-based cathode to offer high specific capacity (256.9 mA h g−1) and a decent capacity retention rate (83.9% after 300 cycles).

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.

The unique microstructure of biomaterials provides inspiration in materials structure design and performance breakthroughs. Here we prepared a MoAlB reinforced Al matrix composites with laminated structure and strong interfacial bonding. This work mainly focuses on the relationship between tribological properties of the MoAlB/Al laminated composites and the MoAlB layer orientation. The results show that the tribological properties of the composites deeply depend on the relation of sliding direction VS. the MoAlB layer orientation, while the dependency gradually decreases with the MoAlB content increasing. The friction coefficient and wear rate of the composites can be decreased by 55.5% and 95.1%, lower than those of pure Al, when 15 vol% MoAlB reinforcement is added. The friction and wear mechanisms of the MoAlB/Al laminated composites are proposed, and the outstanding tribological properties are ascribed to the formation of tribochemical worn film and different stress states caused by the laminated structure.

The development of high performance membrane is crucial for enhanced separation efficiency of nanofiltration process in treating wastewaters from dye and textile industries. In this work, a novel thin-film composite nanofiltration membrane with an asymmetric separation layer composed of relatively compact skin and loose body was designed and fabricated for improved perm-selectivity and antifouling property. Nascent composite membrane with loose poly(piperazine amide) (PA) separation layer was interfacially synthesized and performed with secondary surface reaction using an aqueous tannic acid (TA) solution. Membrane characterizations verified the formation of compact TA skin on top of the loose PA layer through forming covalent bonds via esterification reaction. Compared with the composite nanofiltration membrane with PA symmetric separation layer having the same glucose rejection of about 82.0%, the permeability to pure water of the composite membrane with PA/TA asymmetric separation layer was higher by 28.0%, the water fluxes to aqueous solutions dissolved with model anionic dyes of alizarin yellow R, sunset yellow and Congo red under steady state were higher by 50.3, 43.9 and 36.1%, and the steady-state flux declines were lowered by 27.8, 43.4 and 23.5%, respectively. Furthermore, the PA/TA-based membrane also exhibited better antifouling property and rejection ability to alizarin yellow R.

In this study, Sb2S3 was introduced into the two-step selenization process to promote bottom grain growth and reduce the surface roughness of the Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 light-absorber layer. The introduction of Sb doping in Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 can passivate bulk and interface defects and a small conduction band offset (CBO) can be found, which facilitate the improvement of heterojunction carrier transport properties. Similarly, simulations illustrated that Sb doping improved device efficiency by controlling bulk and interface defects and band alignment. This optimized method facilitated the penetration of Sb, resulting in a high-quality CZTSSe absorber layer. Ultimately, the research culminated in a significant enhancement, yielding a solar cell with an impressive efficiency of 13.11%. These findings offer new possibilities for kesterite solar cells and advance the potential of CZTSSe materials in thin film photovoltaic applications.
