Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based polymer electrolytes are promising candidates for lithium-ion batteries due to their high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical stability window, and ease of processing. However, PVDF chain scission during cycling often leads to battery failure. This study introduces a straightforward strategy for modifying PVDF using potassium oxalate (K 2 C 2 O 4 ). The resulting composite gel polymer electrolyte (CGPEK-X) facilitates the pre-formation of LiF, which enhances lithium-ion conductivity and promotes uniform lithium deposition. Moreover, the improved mechanical integrity of the composite effectively suppresses lithium dendrite growth. When integrated into LiFePO 4 /Li cells, the optimized K 2 C 2 O 4 -doped system demonstrates stable cycling over 200 cycles at room temperature, achieving a discharge capacity of 120.3 mAh g −1 at 1°C. This work presents a novel approach to engineering PVDF-based electrolytes with balanced mechanical and electrochemical properties, offering valuable insights for the development of high-performance lithium-polymer batteries.

The global transition to green energy has precipitated a surge in the demand for lithium resources. However, terrestrial lithium reserves are limited and unevenly distributed. While the ocean harbors abundant lithium, its ultralow concentration and the interference from high concentrations of background ions pose significant challenges for efficient extraction. This study introduces a strategy for lithium extraction from seawater, leveraging the synergistic effect of a flexible LLZO/PVDF-HFP composite membrane and a TEMPO redox couple. A cubic phase garnet-type Li6.5Ga0.25La2.75Ba0.25Zr2O12 (LLZO) solid electrolyte, prepared via a sol–gel method, was compounded with PVDF-HFP to create a flexible membrane with high lithium-ion selectivity. With integration into a redox flow device, the TEMPO redox couple drives the transmembrane migration of lithium ions. The effects of the applied voltage, TEMPO concentration, and operating time on the lithium extraction performance were systematically investigated. At an optimal constant voltage of 1.5 V, the lithium concentration in the enriched solution reached 20.6 times that of the initial seawater. The system demonstrated excellent selectivity with Li/Na, Li/Ca, and Li/Mg selectivity factors of 2309.3, 11164.2, and 3808.9, respectively. After 72 h of continuous lithium extraction, the Li+ concentration in the recovered solution reached 130.6 times that of the feed, with an average energy consumption as low as 34.1 Wh/g(Li). This research demonstrates a promising path for the development of low-cost, highly selective seawater lithium extraction technologies.

With polycarbonate (PC)/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) co-continuous matrix as the substrate, composite transparent conductive films with excellent conductive properties were prepared by melt blending and rod coating method. After a surface sulfonation, the conductivity of PVDF films embedded with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decreased by three quarters. An ethylene glycol (EG) activated poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) layer was coated on PC/PVDF/MWCNTs to form a continuous and smooth surface, and its conductivity was increased by EG-induced phase separation. Owing to the excellent mechanical strength of PC and the toughing capacity of MWCNTs, the tensile strength of thin PC/PVDF/MWCNTs/PEDOT:PSS film attained 57.49 MPa, almost 3 times that of PVDF. The polymer-polymer or polymer-carbon tubes interaction featured as hydrogen bonding enhance the polarization of PVDF and phase separation of PEDOT:PSS. Meanwhile, sulfonated surface intensified this interaction and improved the lamellar compatibility. The increased PVDF β -phase, the PEDOT:PSS after a thorough phase separation and the well-dispersed carbon tubes all contributed to the densification of the matrix and the homogenized and continuous carrier-transferring property of the composite structure. Exhibiting a transparency surpassing 65%, PC/PVDF/MWCNTs/PEDOT:PSS film possesses a low surface resistivity (33.13 Ω/□). Moreover, owing to well dispersity of components and intensified interfacial bonding, a homogenous conductivity performance can be expected.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with hollow nanochannels have attracted much attention in preparing high-performance water treatment membranes. In this paper, the grafting polymer chains, including alkynyl terminated poly(methyl methacrylate) methacrylate (PMMA) single chain and PMMA-b-poly (ethylene glycol) methacrylate [P(PEGMA)] diblock molecular chains, were synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. A UV-induced click reaction was used to graft different linear polymers onto the surface of magnetic thiol-functionalized carbon nanotubes (mCNTs-SH). The poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) composite ultrafiltration membrane within the oriented nanochannels was prepared using phase inversion and magnetic field orientation. TEM and XRD results confirmed that the magnetic carbon nanotubes grafted with a diblock molecular chain had good nano-dispersion and orientation array effects in PVDF composite ultrafiltration membrane. The water contact angle of the array mCNT-g-diblock molecular chain-based composite membrane was 48.5°, significantly enhancing the PEGMA chain segments. The composite membrane with CTNs’ nanochannels attained a higher water flux. As the diblock molecular chain grafted mCNTs oriented in the membrane, the water flux reached 17.6 LMH (five times greater than the pure PVDF membrane), while the molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) for PEG1400 rejection could reach higher than 80%.Keywords:polyvinylidene fluoride ultrafiltration membrane;grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs);nanochannel;block polymers;RAFT polymerization

The construction of high-performance MOF-based hollow fiber composite membrane (HFCM) modules is a significant, yet challenging task for the biofuel production industry. In this study, a novel approach was taken to fabricate PDMS@ZIF-8/PVDF HFCMs in modules through a facile ZIF-8 self-crystallization synthesis followed by pressure-assisted PDMS infusion for pervaporation ethanol-water separation. The as-prepared HFCMs exhibited an ultrathin separation layer (thickness, 370 ± 35 nm), which was achieved through precise regulation of the ZIF-8 membrane and defect repair by PDMS infusion. Moreover, the strategy utilized in this study resolved the defect issues arising from MOF agglomeration in conventional composite membranes. Impressively, at the optimal packing density, the prepared membrane demonstrated a remarkable ethanol flux (1.11 kg m −2 h −1 ) with an PSI value (26.59 kg m −2 h −1 ) and showed promising long-term stability for the pervaporation of 5 wt% ethanol aqueous solution at 40°C.

Dopamine was used to modify polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in order to obtain functional polydopamine (PDA) surface-modified PTFE microporous film (PTFE@PDA). Ag was deposited on the surface of PTFE@PDA using electroless plating in order to obtain Ag-wrapped PTFE@PDA film (PTFE@Ag). A liquid-phase chemical reduction method was employed to prepare nickel nanochains. A Ni@PVDF cast film was obtained by mechanically blended nickel nanochains and polyimide (PVDF). The above two films were hot pressed to give a flexible, ultra-thin, and highly effective electromagnetic shielding composite film with a “3+2” layered structure. IR, XRD, and TEM results showed the PTFE@PDA film surface was coated by a tight plating layer of Ag particles with a particle size of 100~200 nm. PTFE@Ag+Ni@PVDF composite film exhibited excellent electromagnetic shielding effectiveness, with the conductivity of 7507.5 S/cm and the shielding effectiveness of 69.03 dB in the X-band range. After a 2000-cycle bending, this value still remained at 51.90 dB. Furthermore, the composite film presented excellent tensile strength of 62.1 MPa. It has great potential for applications in flexible and wearable intelligent devices.Keywords:electromagnetic shielding;Ag;PTFE;composite film

To address the problem of the serious capacity fading in lithium–sulfur batteries, a multi-functional PEO(polyethylene oxide)/LiFSI (lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide)/PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) (PLP) gel polymer electrolyte is exploited by coating PLP on a carbon nanotubes (CNTs) based sulfur cathode (PLP-S/CNTs) with a controlled thermal annealing process. The annealing process leads to the conformal infusion of PLP through the matrix of S/CNTs with retaining the amorphous phase of the PLP, which enhance the rate performance compared to the bare S/CNTs. The PLP coating drives the transformation of more elemental sulfur to Li 2 S 2 /Li 2 S without forming intermediary product by restraining soluble-polysulfides formation. Furthermore, the PLP coating successfully inhibits the dissolution of Li 2 S x ( x > 4) in PEO and prevents the loss of active material in the cathode, which is confirmed by density functional theory calculations. Comprehensively, the PLP coating applied to the surface of the S/CNTs cathode exhibit significantly suppressed shuttle effect and greatly improve long-term cycle stability of the lithium–sulfur battery. The synthesized PLP-coated S/CNTs composite cathode demonstrates a high specific capacity of 573.6 mAh g −1 at a current density of 0.5 C after 1 000 cycles, even achieving 318.1 mAh g −1 at an extremely high C-rate (6 C). which is unprecedented performance among the reported studies on coating technology.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based dielectric energy storage materials have the advantages of environmental friendliness, high power density, high operating voltage, flexibility, and being light weight, and have enormous research value in the energy, aerospace, environmental protection, and medical fields. To investigate the magnetic field and the effect of high-entropy spinel ferrite (Mn0.2Zr0.2Cu0.2Ca0.2Ni0.2)Fe2O4nanofibers (NFs) on the structural, dielectric, and energy storage properties of PVDF-based polymers, (Mn0.2Zr0.2Cu0.2Ca0.2Ni0.2)Fe2O4NFs were prepared via the use of electrostatic spinning methods, and (Mn0.2Zr0.2Cu0.2Ca0.2Ni0.2)Fe2O4/PVDF composite films were prepared via the use of the coating method. The effects of a 0.8 T parallel magnetic field, induced for 3 min, and the content of high-entropy spinel ferrite on the relevant electrical properties of the composite films are discussed. The experimental results show that, structurally, the magnetic field treatment causes the originally agglomerated nanofibers in the PVDF polymer matrix to form a linear fiber chain with different fiber chains parallel to each other along the magnetic field direction. Electrically, the introduction of the magnetic field enhanced the interfacial polarization, and the (Mn0.2Zr0.2Cu0.2Ca0.2Ni0.2)Fe2O4/PVDF composite film with a doping concentration of 10 vol% had a maximum dielectric constant of 13.9, as well as a low energy loss of 0.068. The high-entropy spinel ferrite (Mn0.2Zr0.2Cu0.2Ca0.2Ni0.2)Fe2O4NFs and the magnetic field influenced the phase composition of the PVDF-based polymer. The α-phase and γ-phase of the cohybrid-phase B1 vol% composite films had a maximum discharge energy density of 4.85 J/cm3and a charge/discharge efficiency of 43%.Keywords:high-entropy spinel ferrite;polymer;dielectric;ferroelectric;energy density

Flexible PVDF-based piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) are promising mechanical energy harvesters for powering wearable devices and portable electronics. In this work, a new hybrid nanocomposite was prepared by coating polyaniline on the surface of halloysite nanotube (HNT@PANI) and PENGs were fabricated by using electrospun nanocomposite fiber mats comprising HNT@PANI and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). The rough surface of PANI outer layer and its electronegative properties favors a large interface and a strong interfacial interaction with PVDF matrix, which efficiently improves the β-phase crystal content and the crystallinity of PVDF simultaneously, resulting in an enhanced output performance in the fibrous nanocomposite PENGs. When the nanocomposite fiber mats are composed of 1 wt% HNT@PANI nanoparticles, the open-circuit voltage of the PENG is up to 30 V, which is six times higher than that of pure PVDF, and it can also light up 17 red LEDs. Furthermore, the open-circuit voltage was found unchanged after being subjected to continuous tapping for 5 weeks in the durability test. In addition, the PENG can charge a capacitor to 4.4 V within 60 s. This flexible self-powered PENG with good durability and high outputs has the potential to be used as a self-charging power source and applied in the field of wearable flexible electronic devices.

With increasing demand on energy density of lithium-ion battery, wide electrochemical window and safety performance are the crucial request for next generation electrolyte. Gel-electrolyte as a pioneer for electrolyte solidization development aims to solve the safety and electrochemical window problems. However, low ionic conductivity and poor physical performance prohibit its further application. Herein, a fast-ionic conductor (Li 2.64 (Sc 0.9 Ti 0.1 ) 2 (PO 4 ) 3 ) (LSTP) was added into poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) base gel-electrolyte to enhance mechanical properties and ionic conductivity. Evidences reveal that LSTP was able to weaken interforce between polymer chains, which increased the ionic conductibility and decreased interface resistance during the cycling significantly. The obtained LiFePO 4 /hybrid gel-electrolyte/Li-metal coin cell exhibited excellent rate capacity (145 mA·h/g at 1 C , 95 mA·h/g at 3 C , 28 °C) which presented a potential that can be comparable with commercialized liquid electrolyte system.

Intra porous fibrous membranes have enhanced metal ionic adsorption and oil separation abilities than those of intra nonporous fibrous membrane. In this paper, we prepared highly intra porous fibrous poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes using an innovated water-mediated electrospinning approach. FTIR-ATR and XRD techniques confirmed the conversion of non-polar α - phase to polar β-phase in electrospun membranes. The porous fibrous membrane M–16 had adsorbed oil almost 120% and metal adsorption around 15%, 12%, 5%, 13% respectively for Pb 2+ , Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ , which are larger than the counterpart of nonporous M–18. The nonporous fibrous membranes have better peak to peak output voltage ( V p - V p ) 2 to 3 times than the porous fibrous membranes (M–16). The results show apparent potential applications in wastewater/oil spill treatment as well as piezoelectric sensors.

A highly efficient visible light-driven photocatalytic membrane composed of Ag/CNQDs/g-C 3 N 4 and PVDF membranes was successfully prepared by vacuum filter crosslinking. This new type of photocatalytic membrane possessed both excellent photocatalytic degradation performance and photocatalytic self-cleaning properties. The Ag/CNQDs/g-C 3 N 4 photocatalyst coating amount of 10 mg had the highest photocatalytic degradation of norfloxacin (NOR), and the quasi-first-order kinetic constant ( k ) value was 0.0138 min −1 . Moreover, the mechanism of the photocatalytic reaction was also discussed. In addition, bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the simulated pollutant was applied to evaluate the self-cleaning property of the Ag/CNQDs/g-C 3 N 4 -PVDF composite membrane. After contamination with BSA, the water flux of the composite membrane decreased from 3880 L (m 2 h) −1 to 800 L (m 2 h) −1 . Then, the maximum pure water flux of the Ag/CNQDs/g-C 3 N 4 -PVDF photocatalytic composite membrane recovered 87% (3360 L (m 2 h) −1 ) within 90 min of visible light irradiation, indicating that the Ag/CNQDs/g-C 3 N 4 -PVDF photocatalytic composite membrane had excellent self-cleaning properties.
