Low energy density remains a major obstacle limiting the development and application of flexible sodium-ion batteries (SIB). Thus, this study aimed to eliminate non-active materials in electrodes, which can be a feasible way to increase the energy density of SIBs. An anode made up of flexible, free-standing SnS 2 /Sb 2 S 3 /Ti 3 C 2 T x composite carbon nanofibers (SnSbS/T-M@CNF), a Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 composite carbon nanofibers cathode (NVP@CNF), and composite gel polymer fiber electrolytes (CGPFE) were successfully synthesized through electrospinning. MXene nanosheets improved the electrical conductivity of the SnSbS/T-M@CNF electrode and absorbed sodium sulfide, inhibiting the loss of S during the reaction. Consequently, the SnSbS/T-M@CNF free-standing electrode could be stably cycled for 1000 cycles at a current density of 1 A g −1 and maintained a reversible capacity of 397.6 mAh g −1 . Further, the NVP@CNF cathode and CGPFE quasi-solid electrolyte half-cells had an excellent cycle stability and rate performance. The flexible, free-standing SnSbS/T-M@CNF anode and NVP@CNF cathode were assembled into quasi-solid-state full cells to test their application value. The SnSbS/T-M@CNF||CGPFE||NVP@CNF full cell had a very low resistance and could easily power a 3 V LED chest lamp. After 500 cycles, it maintained a discharge capacity of 153 mAh g −1 under a current density of 0.5 A g −1 .

Pure cross-linked spherical micelles, nanowires, and vesicles are successfully fabricated from poly(2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate- b - p -(methacryloxyethoxy)benzaldehyde)s (PHPMA– b –PMAEBAs) through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer dispersion polymerization of MAEBA in methanol using PHPMA as a macro-CTA and subsequent cross-linking. The cross-linking reaction is conducted by stirring a mixture of 1,4-butanediamine and the resultant nano-objects in methanol at room temperature. For all polymerizations with feed molar ratios of MAEBA/PHPMA ranging from 75/1 to 240/1, the monomer MAEBA conversions are almost complete, and block copolymers with controlled molecular weight are obtained. The transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, and gel permeation chromatography results reveal that the following three factors significantly influence the morphology of the nano-objects: the feed molar ratio of MAEBA/PHPMA, the copolymer concentration, and the degree of polymerization of PHPMA. The cross-linked nano-objects are very stable in good solvents, the spheres and nanowires slightly decrease in size after cross-linking, whereas the vesicles slightly increase in size. The cross-linked nano-objects are stable in neutral solutions, but they dissociate in weekly acidic solutions. The loading of 1-pyrenemethylamine (PMA) into the vesicles and the unloading of PMA from the vesicles are studied.

Interfacial design is one of the most promising ways in improving mechanical properties of nanocomposites . In this work, a multifunctional aerogel with excellent mechanical performances, sensing sensitivity, and fire retardancy is fabricated by taking advantage of metal coordination between biopolymer and Fe 3+ . Montmorillonite (MMT) nanosheets are added to induce a ‘brick and mortar’ structure. The coordination remarkably reduces structural defects , leading to well-formed lamellas that can effectively distribute stress under sever compression without plastic deformation . The structural merits impart the aerogel highly reversible compressibility even at 99 % strain and superior durability. Besides, it demonstrates high sensing performance in wearable health monitoring devices, and shows fire resistance property that can maintain elasticity in a flame. The work offers a facile and effective method to create multifunctional aerogels from various polymers.

An effective and highly selective molecularly imprinted material was prepared by suspension polymerization for the isolation and pre-concentration of synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) in seawater . The obtained MIPMs were proved to have more uniform size and porous structure, with maximum adsorption capacity of 8.43 mg g − 1 almost two times more than NIPMs (4.43 mg g − 1 ). The MIPMs showed no significant deterioration of the adsorption capacity after five rounds of regeneration. An off-line molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction (MISPE) method followed by HPLC–DAD was proposed for the detection of DES in seawater , and recoveries were satisfactorily higher than 77%. Four seawater samples in aquaculture area were analyzed and 0.61 ng mL − 1 DES was detected in one sample. The result demonstrated that this method can be used for the rapid separation and clean up of trace residual of DES in seawater.

Recently, rechargeable lithium metal polymer battery (LMPB) attracts increasing attention because of its high safety and energy density properties. However, the high contact interfacial resistance of solid-state electrode and electrolyte is still an obstacle to satisfy the demand of high current density and long cycle stability, especially at room and lower temperature. Here, we develop a simple and efficient heat treatment method, to improve the interfacial compatibility between electrode and electrolyte in all-solid-state LMPB, successfully realizing workable LMPB at a reduced temperature (30 °C). The LMPB shows excellent cycling performance and rate capability in the voltage range of 2.5–4.2 V. The behavior of Li + plating/stripping on the surface of lithium metal anode is greatly enhanced. Meanwhile, the interfacial resistance of the LMPB decrease significantly after the heat treatment process .

Construction of high sulfur loading electrode is one of the effective ways to achieve high specific energy density lithium/sulfur batteries. Therefore, the optimization of polymeric binders has been considered as effective strategy to improve the volume changes of sulfur electrodes during charge/discharge processes. In this work, an effective route for the preparation of three dimensional polymeric binder (PAA-PANI) via multiple hydrogen bonds was developed and fabricated through in situ polymerization between polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyaniline (PANI), which possess bifunctional effects on high sulfur loading cathodes in lithium/sulfur batteries. The carboxyl polar groups of PAA could effectively adsorb polysulfides and the conductive PANI enhance the electronic conductivity of the sulfur electrode. The three dimensional polymeric binder of PAA-PANI has enhanced the active material adhesion, mechanical properties and electronic conductivity, which decreased overpotential polarization, improved the lithium ions diffusion coefficient, and reduced the self-discharge. More importantly, the PAA-PANI functional binder could alleviate the expansion of high sulfur loading electrode. Taking advantages of PAA-PANI binder, the carbon nanotubes modified sulfur electrode (CNTs@S; sulfur content: 84.3 wt%) with PAA-PANI binder exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 906 mAh g –1 at 2.56 mA cm –2 (0.3 C) under a sulfur loading of 5.1 mg cm –2 . Even at higher current density of 8.54 mA cm –2 (1 C), the PAA-PANI binder electrode delivers a high capacity of 846 mAh g –1 . Moreover, with an extremely high areal sulfur loading of 17 mg cm –2 , the cathode shows an areal specific capacity of 16.7 mAh cm –2 .

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.

A carbon nanotube reinforced polypyrrole nanowire network was constructed by in situ polymerization of pyrrole in the presence of carbon nanotubes using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide micelles as a soft template. Carbon nanotubes as a reinforcer were embedded into a network of polypyrrole nanowires, thus retaining in the latter a complete network. The resulting network possessed a specific surface area of 112.1 m2 g−1 and a rough porous structure. The embedding of carbon nanotubes decreased the charge transfer resistance in the polypyrrole nanowires and allowed easy access and rapid diffusion of ions/electrons. When applied as a capacitive electrode, a specific capacitance of 183.2 F g−1 was observed at a current density of 8 A g−1. The specific capacitance retention was 85% after 1000 cycles at 1 A g−1. An asymmetric supercapacitor was fabricated using the network as a positive electrode and active carbon as a negative electrode, and when operated at a maximum voltage of 1.5 V, had a high energy density (15.1 W h kg−1 at 3000 W kg−1). A long-term cycling test of the asymmetric supercapacitor at a current density of 1 A g−1 displayed a capacitance retention of 72% even after 3000 cycles of charge and discharge.

Polyaceticzirconium (PEZ) sol, which is the precursor of zirconia (ZrO 2 ) continuous fibers, has been synthesized by means of the reaction between zirconium oxychloride octahydrate (ZrOCl 2 ·8H 2 O) and potassium acetate (CH 3 COOK) in methanol. The polymeric structures and the rheological behaviors of the sols with different molar ratios of ZrOCl 2 ·8H 2 O/CH 3 COOK are different and would affect the spinnability and stability significantly. Herein, the polymeric structures and rheological behaviors of the PEZ sols with the molar ratios of 1:1, 1:1.5, 1:1.8 and 1:2 were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum ( 1 H-NMR), thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) and rheological measurements. The results showed the carboxyl group acted as a chelating ligand instead of bidentate ligand, and the water molecule coordinated to Zr 4+ was deprotoned gradually with the decrease of the molecular ratios. The different polymeric structures lead to a different rheological behaviors of the sols. It is divided into three types, the Newton fluid with a low viscosity produced by the charged linear polymeric structures, the shear thinning fluid with a high viscosity produced by the three-dimensional polymeric structures and the shear thinning fluids with a proper viscosity produced by the linear twining polymeric structures. Through the experimental guidance, we successfully synthesized a sol with suitable viscosity and stability, and used it to fabricate high quality ZrO 2 fibers.

Oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) tungsten based alloys with high performance were synthesized by optimized freeze-drying with PVP and PEG polymer dispersant additives and subsequent low temperature sintering . The pre-freezing principle developed firstly in our work shows that fast cooling rate and polymer dispersant additives contribute to the refinement and uniformity of precursor powders. The optimized freeze-dried W-Y 2 O 3 composite powders possess an average grain size of 9 nm, which can be attributed to the steric hindrance provided by polymer dispersants during freeze-drying and voids left by the decomposition of polymer dispersants during calcination . After sintering at low temperature, the W-Y 2 O 3 alloys have ultrafine W grain (210 nm) and nano second phase particles (<50 nm) dispersed in W matrix while maintaining a high relative density of 97.8%. These factors mentioned above lead to the microhardness and compressive strength as high as 721 ± 31 HV 0.2 , 814 MPa respectively, accompanied by a high total deformation plasticity of above 50%. These results indicate that the optimized freeze-drying and subsequent low temperature sintering is a promising way to fabricate ODS tungsten based alloys with high performance.

Recently, we have constructed a high strength and thermoplastic supramolecular poly( N -acryloyl glycinamide) (PNAGA) hydrogel which can be developed as printable bioinks. However, the PNAGA hydrogel is low in stiffness and toughness, potentially limiting its application as load-bearing soft tissue scaffolds. In this work, we fabricate a supramolecular polymer double-network hydrogel based on hydrogen bonding crosslinked PNAGA and Fe 3+ -coordination crosslinked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The combined hydrogen bonding and ionic crosslinks contribute to high-strength nonswellable PNAGA/CMC-Fe hydrogels (Tensile strength of 2.9 MPa and compressive strength of 7.3 MPa at 80% strain without fracture) and stiffness (Young's modulus of 1.2 MPa and compressive modulus of 1.5 MPa). Furthermore, these reversible double physical crosslinks enable the PNAGA/CMC-Fe hydrogels to dissipate energy efficiently with a high toughness (12.3 MJ m −3 ) and tear energy (3700 J m −2 ), meanwhile imparting self-recoverability, anti-fatigue ability and self-healability to the network. This cytocompatible supramolecular polymer double network hydrogel with excellent multifaceted mechanical performances are promising to exploited as load-bearing soft tissue engineering scaffolds .

In this work, the application of near infrared (NIR)-emitting NaYbF 4 :1%Tm 3+ @NaLuF 4 :30%Nd 3+ core–shell nanoparticles is reported for noninvasive probing and monitoring the temperature during photopolymerization of dental materials. When excited at 808 nm, the synthesized nanoparticles emit NIR photoluminescence (PL) with two distinctive peaks at 865 and 980 nm which correspond to radiative transitions from the doped Nd 3+ and Yb 3+ ions, respectively. Luminescence intensity ratio between these two bands is found to vary with temperature due to temperature-dependent electronic excitation energy transfer between Nd 3+ and Yb 3+ ions at the core/shell interface. This finding allows luminescence ratiometric evaluation of the in situ temperature during photopolymerization of resin cement (doped with nanoparticles) in a veneer placement procedure. In addition, the NIR emission also enables PL imaging of the distribution of the adhesive under the veneer. The results highlight that rare-earth ions–doped nanoparticles with both excitation and emission in the NIR spectral range are advantageous for both PL-based nanothermometry and imaging due to the reduced attenuation of NIR light by dental ceramics.
