Transparent flexible supercapacitors (TFSCs) are a tantalizing power supplier for future transparent flexible electronics. However, their energy density is far behind a practical level while maintaining high transparency. We report here a transparent flexible potassium-ion microcapacitor, and its high energy density (15.5 μWh cm–2) roots in the battery-supercapacitor hybrid storage mechanism and much enlarged working voltage (3 V), outperforming the state-of-the-art TFSC, which is generally based on an aqueous electrolyte and an asymmetric pseudocapacitive mechanism. From an electrode material perspective, a multidimensional topotactic host composite anode is designed in which the component not only performs energy storage by synchronous and reversible uptake of potassium ions and electrons into its host structure, but also mutually compensates individual weakness in functional and structural aspects, efficiently constructing a three-dimensional potassium-ion diffusion and electron transport system. This conceptual exhibition provides design principles at material and device levels for high-performance TFSCs.

Li + doping is regarded as an effective strategy to enhance the room-temperature hydrogen storage of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In this work, Li + is doped into both MIL-100(Fe) and MIL-100(Fe)/graphene oxide (GO) composite, and it is demonstrated that the hydrogen uptake of Li + doped MIL-100(Fe)/GO (2.02 wt%) is improved by 135% compared with Li + doped MIL-100(Fe) (0.86 wt%) at 298 K and 50 bar, which is ascribed to its higher isosteric heat of adsorption (7.33 kJ/mol) resulting from its more accessible adsorption sites provided by doped Li + ions and ultramicropores. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation reveals that Li + ions distributing in the interface between MIL-100(Fe) and GO within MIL-100(Fe)/GO composite is favorable for hydrogen adsorption owing to the increased number of adsorption sites, thus contributing to the enhanced hydrogen storage capacity. These findings demonstrate that MIL-100(Fe)/GO is a more promising Li + doping substrate than MIL-100(Fe).

Despite great efforts have been made on epoxy resins modification, development of additives that can be used to efficiently and universally modify epoxy composites remains a challenging task. Herein, graphene oxide (GO) sheets were covalently linked with hyperbranched epoxy resin (HBPEE-epoxy) to form HBPEE-epoxy functionalized GO (HPE-GO), which was then incorporated into epoxy resin (EP) matrix to achieve efficient and all-purpose enhancement of the properties of EPs. Compared with unmodified GO sheets, the functionalized HPE-GO sheets were better dispersed and exhibited better interfacial compatibility with the epoxy matrix, and consequently, the mechanical and thermal properties of HPE-GO/EP composites improved significantly compared to unmodified GO/EP composites. The tensile strength, flexural strength, impact strength, and fracture toughness ( K IC ) of EP composites containing 0.5 wt% HPE-GO increased by 65.0%, 36.2%, 259.1%, and 178.9%, respectively, compared with those for the neat EP. The storage modulus ( E '), glass transition temperature ( T g ), and thermal stability ( T 5% ) also showed modest improvements. Furthermore, the HPE-GO/EP composites exhibited optimal thermal conductivities and thermal expansion properties, while maintaining higher volume resistivities compared with GO/EP composites. The results of this study support that HPE-GO is a promising, all-purpose modifier for EPs.

Superhydrophobic membranes have been playing crucial role in efficient remediation of organic pollutants contaminated water, especially for oily discharged wastewater. Taking advantages of the inherent features of graphene oxide (GO), sodium alginate (SA) and lignin, a novel type of superhydrophobic biopolymer aerogel membrane (T-SA/lignin x /rGO-MTMS) was prepared by freeze-casting technique and subsequent chemical vapor deposition, during which trimethoxymethylsilane (MTMS) silylation growth was achieved for the supreme protuberance, leading to the formation of rough and hydrophobic surface that favorably looks like a hedgehog carrying apples. Due to the air cushion induced by cooperative interaction between rough lignin particles and SA of 3D porous network with gas as a dispersion medium, and crumpled GO nanosheets, as-fabricated membrane with integrated functions of biopolymers possessed superhydrophobic surface characteristics (WCA = 161°). More favorably, utilizing the inherent molecular features, lignin has been successfully employed to de-oxidize GO during this preparative concept. By virtue of the low-surface-energy reduced GO (rGO) and abundant protuberance, T-SA/lignin x /rGO-MTMS exhibited potential cycling performance even with 10 cycles of oil/water separation and oil sorption. This study might shed light on the value-added utilization of integrated functions of biopolymers for designing task-specific functional materials for various applications.

Graphene derivatives are excellent fillers for providing outstanding barrier performance in organic protective coating but no active inhibition property. In this paper, a facile and environmentally friendly strategy is presented to improve the anticorrosion ability of graphene by modifying graphene oxide (GO) with a green corrosion inhibitor derived from nature, phytic acid (PA). The as-prepared PA modified GO (PAGO) thus possesses the passive barrier property and active corrosion inhibition function simultaneously. Employing PAGO as filler, a high-performance waterborne epoxy composite coating (PAGO/WEP) with “barrier + inhibitor” double anticorrosion effect was fabricated. The EIS test results demonstrated that after 21 days of immersion, the impedance modulus of the PAGO/WEP coating did not decrease and still maintained at the initial impedance value. The salt spray tests also demonstrated the significantly enhanced anticorrosion performance.

By annealing [Mn(phen)H 2 O][V 2 O 6 ] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) in the presence of graphite template, MnV 2 O 4 /C microparticles are obtained, in which MnV 2 O 4 particles with one-layer or few-layer coating of graphene are anchored on the graphite sheets. The optimal sample, MnV 2 O 4 (p)/C-700 with a high carbon content (35.3 at. %) can deliver a large specific capacity of 410 mAh g −1 at 0.1 A g −1 with a high capacity retention of 94.3% over 1000 discharge/charge cycles at 20 A g −1 as cathode in zinc-ion battery. Ex situ X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectra, as well as elemental mappings and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of MnV 2 O 4 (p)/C-700 discern the partial phase transformation mechanism of MnV 2 O 4 →Zn 3 (OH) 2 V 2 O 7 (H 2 O) 2 during discharge/charge process. It is because the rich oxygen defects of MnV 2 O 4 can improve electrical conductivity, favor the electron transfer from V→Mn/O, thus facilitate the binding of Zn 2+ , and the captured Zn 2+ cannot be extracted, as evidenced by density functional theory calculations. Furthermore, it is found that O-deficiency can capture the water shell from the hydrated Zn 2+ , then the dehydrated Zn 2+ is easy to insert into MnV 2 O 4 with lower migration barrier of Zn 2+ (0.84 eV), leading to the structural reversibility of MnV 2 O 4 in cycling test.

The exacerbating water pollution and water resource shortage pose a great danger to human health and make it imperative to recycle and treat the sewage. In this study, a direct-writing three-dimensional (3D) printing technology was adopted to prepare a 3D sodium alginate (SA)/graphene oxide (GO)/Ag nanoparticle (AgNP) aerogel (SGA), aiming to turn the complex sewage containing oil, silt, and bacteria into clean water depending only on gravity separation. The physicochemical properties and surface structure of the synthesized SGA were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The swelling rate, mechanical properties, antibacterial properties, oil and water separation effect, and durable stability of the filter membrane were also investigated to verify the versatility of the SGA filter. The results showed that GO helped improve the mechanical properties of the printed filter to withstand water impact during the filtration process. The printed filter had a well-designed and multiscale gradient pore structure, which can effectively intercept particles with different sizes to separate the silt from water, and the turbidity of the filtered water can be reduced from 60 to 1 nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU). The presence of SA endowed the printed filter with hydrophilic and oleophobic behaviors, which can effectively separate various kinds of oils from water. The uniform distribution of AgNPs in the filter produced via a facile and green reduction of SA facilitated the efficient bactericidal ability of the printed filter during the filtration process; meanwhile, the lower release concentration of Ag ions ensured drinking safety. What is more, the filter can be easily produced on a large scale and used for different sewage treatment situations with a durable stability of over 30 days. Taken together, the printed SGA filter has a broad application prospect in complex sewage treatment, providing a special solution for sewage treatment in poverty areas.

Developing recyclable and efficient adsorbents for cationic dyes removal from wastewater is crucial for ensuring green ecology and drinking water safety. Herein, we demonstrated a novel magnetic gel bead adsorbent that was synthesized by employing graphene oxide (GO) modified Fe 3 O 4 as magnetic nanoparticles doped sodium alginate (SA)/chitosan (CS) gel (SA/GO@Fe 3 O 4 /CS). The GO@Fe 3 O 4 sample was prepared based on GO by the chemical co-precipitation method, which not only reduced the aggregation of Fe 3 O 4 but also increases the specific surface area of the composite gel beads. The prepared gel beads were used to adsorb methylene blue (MB), neutral red (NR), and safranine T (ST). The experimental results showed that the adsorption capacity of SA/GO@Fe 3 O 4 /CS gel beads for MB, NR, and ST reached 21.325 mg/g, 44.654 mg/g and 44.313 mg/g. After five recycles, the removal rates could still reach more than 90% of the original, exhibiting a high recovery rate. Therefore, this paper provides a strategy for the preparation of high efficiency and recyclable cationic dye adsorbents with a large specific surface area.

USTB technology is widely considered as a low-cost and environmentally-friendly method for titanium extraction from a consumable TiCxOy anode. It is expected to directly prepare TiCxOy by selective carbothermal reduction of titanium ores, not pure TiO2. However, impurities in titanium ores, particularly Al2O3, may affect the electrochemical dissolution of TiCxOy and Ti extraction. In this work, the effects of Al2O3 impurity on the preparation and dissolution behaviors of Ti2CO are studied. It is found that the existence form of Al2O3 is not changed during carbothermal reduction. With the increase of Al2O3 content, the conductivity of Ti2CO anode slightly decreases from 143.1 to 131.6 S cm−1 and the anodic polarization curves of Ti2CO@Al2O3 shifts to the positive direction due to the increase of dissolution resistances. Al2O3 in Ti2CO@Al2O3 anode will drop into molten salts to form anode slime during USTB process. On both liquid Zn and solid nickel cathodes, Ti is electrodeposited, which is not affected by Al2O3 impurity. Therefore, it is confirmed that typical Al2O3 impurity has no obvious effect on the electrochemical dissolution of Ti2CO anode and Ti extraction. The advanced USTB process is expectedly developed by the selective carbothermal reduction of titanium ores to prepare Ti2CO anode.

Graphene oxide (GO) membranes have been developed by stacking the nanosheets together for using as molecular sieve due to its two-dimensional (2D) capillaries. However, this technology is still far from being ready for large-scale production. Specifically, pure GO membranes exhibit poor resistance to cross-flow process, and the commonly used preparation techniques pose scale-up difficulties. Here, we report a durable membrane developed using dip-coating polydopamine (PDA), followed by spray-coating multi-layered GO (MLGO). The fast preparation speed of ~0.2 s cm −2 and large preparation area of 1400 cm 2 per preparing cycle demonstrated the scalability of the method. Acting as a binder and stabilizer , PDA developed MLGO-substrate interaction and crosslinked the MLGO sheets. The modified oriented MLGO layer contributed up to 95.0% retention of Na 2 SO 4 and showed enhanced stability in a 263-days soaking test and a nearly 800-h cross-flow test with the test area of 29.2 cm 2 . This work expands the possibilities for the GO membranes in practical applications.

Pulverization and surface instability have been identified as the main impediments to the application of Si anodes in high-energy lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this study, a Si-graphitic carbon hybrid (SiG) is created via embedding Si nanoparticles in between expanding graphite interlayers, thus to be adopted as a model system to unravel structure-properties relations for LIBs applications. We explore the impact of artificial surface coating layers on the lithium cycling performance of SiG particles. In comparison with native SiG and carbon-coated SiG (CC-SiG), we find that the “sticky-carbon” coating, i.e., an epoxy-rich layer on top of the carbon coating, gave rise to superior cycle performance. In the “sticky carbon” coated SiG (SCC-SiG), the surface chemistry appears to have a pivotal role in both alleviating electrode disintegration and forming a favorable SEI rich in fluorine-polymers. These positive findings are examined in electrodes with mass loading ranging from 1.0 to 5.0 mg/cm 2 , achieving area capacities up to ∼5.0 mAh/cm 2 . A full cell adopting >6 mg/cm 2 LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 (NCM811) cathode and SCC-SiG delivers stable cycling performances. It is hence unraveled that the carbon coating layer with reactive surface groups on the top is an unrecognized key for wide range of Si-based anodes.

Cyanide wastewater contains highly toxic contaminants such as free cyanide and metal-cyanide complex, it is necessary to find the appropriate degradation technologies. In this study, a simple and effective photocatalyst with enhanced adsorption and photocatalytic activity was developed. A new composite photocatalyst was successfully prepared by solid-state dispersion (SSD) method, which combined graphene oxide (GO), nano titanium dioxide (nano-TiO 2 ) and silicon-based zeolite (ZSM-5). The techniques of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), N 2 adsorption–desorption test, X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–Vis DRS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize the samples. The experiments with different content of nano-TiO 2 , different wavelengths of light source, different catalyst dosage, control experiments of different materials, and the determination of pH value and zeta potential were also carried out. The results showed that the 3.0 g/L of GTZ-60 (GO/TiO 2 /ZSM-5 composite photocatalyst with a content of 60 wt% TiO 2 ) has the highest photocatalytic degradation efficiency under ultraviolet wavelength which the degradation efficiency of total cyanide and copper could reach 98.73% and 98.96%, respectively. The degradation of total cyanide followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics. The photoelectric properties of GTZ-60 obviously improved the migration and separation of photogenerated electrons ( e − ) and holes ( h + ), so that high photocatalytic efficiency was obtained. XPS analysis showed that cyanide was finally degraded to carbon oxide and nitrogen oxide. Copper and zinc are removed in the form of copper (Ⅱ) and zinc (Ⅱ).
