The PVDF-HFP/PMMA/CMC blended solid polymer prepared by solvent volatilization method with PVDF-HFP as host polymer matrix and PVDF-HFP/PMMA as blended membrane and then PVDF-HFP/PMMA modified by coating carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was introduced in this study to overcome the shortcomings of organic solvent - based liquid electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries. The synthesized copolymers were characterized by FTIR, TGA, XRD, and the results show that PMMA can be well dispersed in PVDF-HFP solution and the addition of CMC can reduce the crystallinity of the polymer membrane, which accelerates the movement of the polymer chain segments and improves the migration rate of lithium-ions. The electrical conductivity of the gel polymer was investigated by AC impedance, and the room temperature ionic conductivity of the gel polymer was up to the order of 10 -3 S·cm -1 , and the electrochemical stability window was 4.8 V. The polymer lithium-ion battery assembled with LiCoO 2 as cathode and lithium sheet as anode has good cycle stability. The lithium metal polymer cell delivered discharge specific capacity with 162.52 mAh.g -1 at the first cycle, and these properties indicate that the modified gel polymer has applicative prospect in polymer lithium-ion batteries.

All-inorganic CsPbI 3 quantum dots perovskite solar cells (QDPSCs) have wide potential application due to their excellent photoelectric properties with high environmental stability. However, the poor interface contact between the light absorption layer and hole transport layer (HTL) results in the serious carrier recombination and the large open-circuit voltage ( V OC ) loss. Herein, we introduce the insulating PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) buffer layer into CsPbI 3 quantum dots (QDs)/Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 QDs HTL interface in all-inorganic QDPSCs with the structure of FTO/c-TiO 2 /m-TiO 2 /CsPbI 3 QDs/Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 QDs/Au. The interface carrier recombination is obviously suppressed and the significant V OC improvement from 1.04 V to 1.14 V is obtained with the incorporated PMMA buffer layer. The devices with PMMA buffer layer show the enhanced power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 10.99%, and the improvement of 9.71% is achieved compared to that of the control devices (10.02%). The stability is significantly enhanced due to the intrinsic hydrophobic characteristic of PMMA, and the devices retain 62.69% of their initial PCE after stored in air condition for 15 days, which is greatly improved compared with the control device without PMMA.

Dispersion photopolymerization was carried out under green LED irradiation to rapidly prepare monodisperse poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microspheres with small size by using a high-efficient three-component initiating system. The polymerization parameters including exposure time, MMA content, stirring speed, water ratio and PVP content were systematically investigated. Crucial parameters were further optimized by response surface method (RSM), and a corresponding polymerization mechanism was proposed. Finally, PMMA microspheres with 375.6 nm of size and 0.101 of PDI were prepared. This study provides a facile method for the rapid fabrication of PMMA microspheres.

The filling combination of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Cu/Al 2 O 3 filled poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) based composites aiming at low friction and wear is optimized based on L 9 (3 4 ) by Taguchi method. The worn morphologies of PMMA based composites are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The PTFE transfer film and the wear debris on the steel ball surface are analyzed by SEM and X-ray spectroscopy. It is observed that the friction and wear of PMMA can be obviously decreased by filling with PTFE, Cu, and Al 2 O 3 . PTFE has the most significant but Cu has the negligibly smallest contribution on both the friction coefficient and the wear rate. The lower friction coefficient (<0.2) appears by the combination of the mass ratio of PTFE larger than about 4.5% and the mass ratio of Al 2 O 3 lower than ∼7.5%. The lower wear rate (<5 × 10 −5 mm 3 /Nm) appears by the combination of the mass ratio of PTFE larger than about 5% and the mass ratio of Al 2 O 3 lower than ∼8%, but it does not include that PTFE is greater than about 8.5% and Al 2 O 3 is less than about 1.5%. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Tough and transparent poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposites with the impact strength and breaking elongation 1.6 and 9.6 times higher than that of pure PMMA, separately, are obtained through in situ thermal polymerization of methylmethacrylate (MMA) gels with dumbbell-like organogelators (G1-alkyl). G1-alkyl is designed and synthesized with long alkyl chains at the periphery, which can self-assemble into three-dimensional (3D) nanofibrillar gel networks in MMA monomers during the gelation process. PMMA nanocomposites are obtained through in situ thermal polymerization of MMA gels, whose gel networks are well-dispersed in polymer matrix because of the good compatibility and survived after the polymerization process, verified by SEM studies. Mechanical analysis indicates that only a small amount of gelator addition can significantly improve the mechanical properties of the obtained nanocomposites, and the maximum value of impact strength and breaking elongation is achieved with 1.0 wt% gelator concentration. In particular, UV–vis spectrophotometer and Archimedes drainage method indicates the PMMA nanocomposites maintain the advantage of good optical transparency and lightweight.

Polytetrafluoroethylene/Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PTFE/PMMA) composite was prepared by mixing PTFE into PMMA matrix which synthesized by the PMMA powder mixture and methyl methacrylate (MMA) liquid mixture. The effects of the filling mass ratio of PTFE and powder/liquid (P/L) ratio on the friction and wear properties of PTFE/PMMA composites against bearing steel were studied by a ball-on-disk tribometer. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were used to characterize the synthesis of PTFE/PMMA composite. The shore hardness and glass transition temperature (Tg) were obtained respectively by shore hardness tester and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results show that the friction coefficient and wear rate of PMMA based composite, comparing with the unfilled PMMA, can be significantly reduced by filling with PTFE. With the increasing of PTFE filling mass ratio, the wear rate of PTFE/PMMA composite increases. The friction coefficient and wear rate of the unfilled PMMA and PTFE/PMMA composite generally decrease with the P/L ratio increasing. The main wear mechanism of the unfilled PMMA is adhesive wear. While the main wear mechanisms of PTFE/PMMA composites are fatigue wear and abrasive wear.

A polypyrrole/montmorillonite-polyvinylidenedifluoride/polymethyl methacrylate (PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA) composite film was prepared by a solvent casting technique. The surface morphology and cross-sectional structure of the 12 wt.% PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film exhibited porosity with high specific surface area and good adsorption capacity. The 12 wt.% PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film shows good electrolyte uptake (241%) and electrochemical stability. The ionic conductivity of the 12 wt.% PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film with LiPF 6 organic electrolyte reaches 2.45 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 20 °C. The Li/LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 cell assembled with the 12 wt.% PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film and LiPF 6 organic electrolyte exhibits good capacity retention and cycling performance at 1 C and 60 °C. At the same time, the nucleophilic substitution reacts with the PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film and HF from hydrolysis by trace moisture of LiPF 6 in the electrolyte solution, which can inhibit the disproportionation of Mn 3+ in the LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 electrode material and decrease the internal resistance of the cell at high temperature. In conclusion, the PPy/MMT-PVDF/PMMA composite film can be employed in Li-ion batteries.

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of inorganic core-shell SiO2 nanoparticles modified with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) layer, on the optical and electrochemical properties of poly vinylidenefluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP) gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). The core-shell SiO2 nanoparticles were first modified with PMMA to improve its dispersibility and compatibility in the polymer matrix. The morphology and structural properties of the core-shell SiO2 nanoparticles before and after modification were characterized by XRD, FTIR and SEM analysis. Then the modified SiO2 nanoparticles were used to prepare the composite GPE, composed of chemically modified core-shell structured SiO2-PMMA and PVDF-HFP polymer matrix. The transformation of nano-silica to SiO2-PMMA nanoparticles shows the better compatibility of PMMA and PVDF-HFP that favours the silica to be well dispersed in the organic matrix and significantly improve the doping effect. Various concentrations of modified SiO2-PMMA were used to dope PVDF-HFP GPEs. The results indicate that the 10% doping shows the highest ionic conductivity i.e. 2.22 × 10−3 s cm−1. In addition, the composite GPEs show the high transmittance and good thermal stability; therefore it can add important insight into developing high-performance materials for electrochromic devices.

Dielectric capacitors with a high energy-storage density and efficiency are urgently required for miniaturization and integration of power electronics and pulsed power system. Herein, single-layered stretched P(VDF-HFP) with a certain content of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and two kinds of sandwich-structured films are prepared to optimize and compare energy-storage performance. The results revealed that the crystallization transition behavior of stretched P(VDF-HFP) films contributed to enhance its electric polarization, while the introduction of linear type PMMA resulted in an enhancement of voltage tolerance of stretched films by improving the mechanical properties and suppressing leakage current. What’s more, the effects of crystalline orientations and structure design on the breakdown mechanism of stretched films were revealed by finite element theoretical simulation. As a consequence, the stretched sandwich-structured 0-25-0-S (pure P(VDF-HFP) serves as the outer layer, and blends represent the middle layer; the digit representing PMMA content in the P(VDF-HFP)) displayed a high Ue of 28.71 J/cm3 and η of 74% under 680 MV/m. This work provides a workable and effective method for developing capacitive films with great energy-storage performance.

Superwetting materials with multiple functions have drawn heightened attention due to their delicately adjustable surface wettability . However, realizing the full potential of diversified functions is often hampered by the usually symmetrical wetting state. Herein, we introduce a versatile electro-spraying technique to construct a patterned PDMS/PMMA coating with asymmetrical wettability. The tunable superwetting patterns are able to achieve the required functional diversity. The as-prepared superhydrophobic fabric can act as a separation filter with a high separation efficiency and satisfactory cycling ability. With the wettability difference, such patterned surfaces can also manipulate the successive drops motions, and relation between the surface patterns and the controllable movement is demonstrated. In addition, the patterned surface can serve as a smart signal-expression membrane, thereby enabling real-time variable liquid signal expression with alterable signals. The exciting results have paved the way for expanding the application foreground of smart superwetting materials in microfluidics and signal-detection.

Inorganic metal halide perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have recently emerged as promising candidates for color conversion materials in Micro-LED displays, due to their outstanding color purity, high absorption coefficient, tunable emission wavelength . However the inferior stability and undesirable photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) restrict their particle applications. Herein, CsPbX 3 /PMMA (X = Br, I) composites with improved stability and optical performance were successfully prepared by a general and mild in-situ polymerization strategy. The ester carbonyl (C O) group in MMA formed complexes with Pb 2+ , leading to the in-situ thermal polymerization of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) under the action of the initiator. The multifunctional PMMA can efficiently passivate halogen vacancies while acting as a barrier against the degradation caused by heat, water, and oxygen. As a result, the PLQYs and stability of PMMA-coated CsPbX 3 PQDs have been significantly improved. When implementing CsPbX 3 /PMMA/PDMS composites as color conversion layers in Micro-LEDs, they achieve an impressive color gamut of 127.23% with excellent stability. We believe our work will stimulate the exploration of perovskite/polymer composites for industrial Micro-LED applications.

Paper has a high value of culture, history and scientific research as the cultural carrier of historical inheritance. However, with the passage of time and the change of environment, many paper files are aging and damaged. Therefore, it is of great significance to carry out the protection of paper archives. Chitosan, a natural material, has a good compatibility with paper fibers. In this paper, chitosan (CS) was modified by epoxy cyclohexane (CHO) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) to prepare CS-CHO-g-PMMA emulsion. CS-CHO-g-PMMA was applied to paper protection, and the effects of CS-CHO-g-PMMA on heat aging resistance, reversibility and acid-base resistance were investigated. In order to improve the mechanical strength of paper, CS-CHO-g-PMMA and phosphate ester starch (HPDSP) were blended to determine the optimum ratio. The results showed that the degradation rate of paper sample was slowed down obviously and the coating had certain reversibility. Acid-base resistance experiment showed that CS-CHO-g-PMMA could effectively resisit corrosion of external acid-base to protect the paper. The best combination ratio between CS-CHO-g-PMMA and HPDSP was: m (CS-CHO-g-PMMA): m (HPDSP) = 5:2. Under this compound ratio, the performance indexes of the paper met the requirements, conforming to the “repair as old, keep the original” and other requirements.
