The synergic effect between each component in composite membrane has created a new concept to fabricate membrane materials and widen their applications. Previous trials have suggested that micrometer-scale aramid fiber (MAF) could be effectively split into nanoscale aramid fiber (NAF) by dissolution in DMSO/KOH. Addressed herein is a time-saving approach to incorporate graphene oxide (GO) together with NAF to fabricate composite membranes through π–π stacking interactions. NAF–GO composite membranes (GO/NAF) containing gradient contents of GO have been prepared using absolute ethanol as proton donor, making the drying process facile and fast. The obtained composite membranes exhibit excellent hydrophilicity and enhanced mechanical performance. The chemical structure, morphology, crystallization and mechanical strength of GO/NAF composite membranes are characterized, respectively, and the hydrophilicity of GO/NAF is also evaluated by static water contact angle measurements. In the case of medium GO content (1 wt%) used in this study, the composite membrane possesses both optimal mechanical performance and better hydrophilicity compared to other supplementations, indicating that absolute ethanol is a promising proton donor for flocculation, which makes the post-treatment process more economic.

The white pollution caused by non-degradable plastics poses a serious threat to human society and the environment, thus developing biodegradable material is urgent. In this work, a novel phosphonitrile hybrid metal-polyphenol network was constructed and used for the preparation of flame retardant , UV resistant and antibacterial multifunctional polyvinyl alcohol composite (PVA@HCPD-Ag). The limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of PVA@HCPD-Ag was improved to 33.5%, while the peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release (THR) decreased by 35.62% and 47.76%. Besides, the ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) value of PVA@HCPD-Ag was significantly improved from 4.63 of the original PVA to 482.79, while the tensile strength was increased by 10.23%. Furthermore, the inhibition efficacy of PVA@HCPD-Ag for E. coli and S. aureus was up to 98.12% and 99.99%. This work explored the synergistic flame retardant effect of in-situ reduced Ag 0 and phosphonitrile crosslinked polyphenol network and proposed an advanced strategy for developing high value-added functionalized PVA materials.

As one class of important functional materials, transition metal phosphides (TMPs) nanostructures show promising applications in catalysis and energy storage fields. Although great progress has been achieved, phase-controlled synthesis of cobalt phosphides nanocrystals or related nanohybrids remains a challenge, and their use in overall water splitting (OWS) is not systematically studied. Herein, three kinds of cobalt phosphides nanocrystals encapsulated by P-doped carbon (PC) and married with P-doped graphene (PG) nanohybrids, including CoP@PC/PG, CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG, and Co 2 P@PC/PG, are obtained through controllable thermal conversion of presynthesized supramolecular gels that contain cobalt salt, phytic acid, and graphene oxides at proper temperature under Ar/H 2 atmosphere. Among them, the mixed-phase CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG nanohybrids manifest high electrocatalytic activity toward both hydrogen and oxygen evolution in alkaline media. Remarkably, using them as bifunctional catalysts, the fabricated CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG || CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG electrolyzer only needs a cell voltage of 1.567 V for driving OWS to reach the current density at 10 mA cm −2 , superior to their pure-phase counterparts and recently reported bifunctional catalysts based devices. Also, such a CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG || CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG device exhibits outstanding stability for OWS. This work may shed some light on optimizing TMPs nanostructures based on phase engineering, and promote their applications in OWS or other renewable energy options.

In this article, we present a simple and sensitive electrochemical DNA biosensor based on graphene oxide (GO)/chitosan (CS) hybrid nanocomposites modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E.coli O157:H7). The morphology and composition of GO and hybrid nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR). Cyclic voltammetry investigations indicated that the GO/CS/GCE showed excellent electron transfer ability and good linear relation. Under the optimal hybridization conditions, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) responses of ssDNA/GO/CS/GCE biosensor were in linear with the target DNA in the concentration range from 1×10 -14 to 1×10 -8 M with the detection limit as 3.584×10 -15 M (3σ). Moreover, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies revealed good specificity and excellent ability of ssDNA/GO/CS/GCE biosensor to distinguish complementary, 1-base mismatched DNA, 2-base mismatched DNA and multi-base mismatched DNA. The developed strategy in this research revealed that the GO/CS modified electrode possess excellent performance for detecting of Escherichia coli O157:H7 DNA.

The effect of calcination temperature on the coating layer and the phase of the alloy matrix is the main problem to improve the heat treatment process of SMCs and obtain excellent magnetic properties . In this study, FeNiMo@Al 2 O 3 powders which were coated by sol-gel and calcined at 900–1300 °C were prepared and these powders were pressed into SMCs. The results showed that the surface of the powder was uniformly coated with Al 2 O 3 . As the heat treatment temperature increases, the phase of the coating changed from AlOOH to γ-Al 2 O 3 , δ-Al 2 O 3 , θ-Al 2 O 3 , and α-Al 2 O 3 . Meanwhile, the new phase γ-Fe, Ni appeared in the alloy matrix. The magnetic permeability of the sample is very stable in the frequency range of 10–500 kHz. The magnetic loss decreases first and then increases, with a minimum at 1100 °C. The permeability and magnetic loss of the sample pressed from the powder obtained by calcination at 1100 °C are 321.78 mw/cm 3 and 87.61 (50 kHz, 100 mT) at the typical industrial application conditions of Iron–Nickel SMCs. The microstructure and the magnetic properties show that the obtained α-Al 2 O 3 have excellent insulation and heat resistance. This resulted in a significant reduction in core losses of FeNiMo SMCs.

Novel nanocomposites of spherical graphite-carbon encased tungsten carbide (GC-WC) are synthesized by solid state reaction with melamine and WO 3 as precursors under N 2 atmosphere. The diameters of the GC-WC composites range from 50 to 200 nm and the WC nanoparticles inside with an average size of ca. 15 nm distribute uniformly. The characterization results indicate that the GC-WC is composed of few layers of graphite carbon and WC nanoparticles with high crystallization and purity. Moreover, the electrocatalytic performance of GC-WC for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline medium is further investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), rotating disk electrode (RDE) and chronoamperometry test with or without 3 M methanol. The results show that GC-WC has a considerable performance for ORR in the view of activity, stability and methanol tolerance, which may further used as proper supports for noble-metal based ORR catalysts in alkaline fuel cell . The synergetic interaction between the carbide nanoparticles and graphite carbon, which means that the surface graphite carbon layers are activated by WC nanoparticles for ORR and in turn protect inner WC from highly oxidizing environments has also been verified.

The graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was fabricated and used to determine 4-aminophenol (4-AP). In 0.1 M pH 6.3 phosphate buffer solution , the redox peak currents of 4-AP increased significantly and the peak-to-peak separation decreased greatly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified GCE compared with bare GCE and chitosan modified GCE, indicating that graphene possessed electrocatalytic activity towards 4-AP. The experimental conditions were optimized and the kinetic parameters were investigated. The oxidation mechanism was discussed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peak current was proportional to 4-AP concentration in the range from 0.2 to 550 μM with the correlation coefficient of 0.9930. The detection limit was 0.057 μM (S/N = 3). Using the proposed method, 4-AP was successfully determined in water samples and paracetamol tablets with standard addition method, suggesting that this method can be applied to determine 4-AP in environments and pharmaceuticals.

A polyimide–MWCNT composite (PNP@CNT) synthesized from 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic-dianhydride (NTCDA) and phenylene diamine (PDA) was investigated as a novel anode for aqueous Na-ion batteries. This composite demonstrates a high reversible capacity of 149 mA h g−1 at quite a low potential of −0.65 V (vs. SCE), superior rate capability and long-term cycling stability. The feasibility of PNP@CNTs in aqueous Na-ion full batteries is also confirmed in conjunction with the Na0.44MnO2 cathode, possibly serving as a high performance aqueous Na host anode for large-scale electric energy storage applications.

Currently, polysaccharide-based hydrogels are widely studied macromolecular networks to modify drug dissolution from controlled-releasing matrix tablets. Among them, polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) films consisted of chitosan (CS) and sodium alginate (SA) could be obtained via spontaneously assembling under physiological gastrointestinal environment. Here, we utilized these self-assembled PEC films as an efficient coating materials to develop controlled-released matrix tablets through compression coating process, with paracetamol (APAP) as model drug. The constitutive and morphology characteristic studies on these PEC films illustrated that the mixture of CS and SA with the weight ratio of 1:1 would be an promising outer layer for compression-coating tablets. In addition, the in vitro drug releasing behavior experiments demonstrated that the optimized compression coating tablets displayed satisfied zero-order drug releasing profits. Furthermore, the in vivo pharmacokinetic studies of these APAP loaded compression-coated tablets in New Zealand rabbits gave that the T max (12.32 ± 1.05 h) was significantly prolonged ( p < 0.01), compared to that (0.89 ± 0.26 h) of common APAP tablets (Jinfuning ® ) after oral administration. These studies suggest that the compression-coated tablets with self-assembled PEC film as coating outer layer may be a promising strategy for peroral controlled release delivery system of water soluble drugs.

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 .

The double-coated Si-based composite (nano-Si@carbon@void@graphene sheets) with the excellent electrochemical properties have been successfully designed and prepared via a spray drying method. The composite electrode at 0.1 A g −1 presents a high initial discharge/charge capacity of 2744.9/2389.8 mAh g −1 , representing high initial coloumbic efficiency of 87.1%. After 200 cycles, a high charge capacity of 1325.2 mAh g −1 is obtained. Even at 0.8 A g −1 and 1.6 A g −1 , the composite electrode still maintain high capacities of 1466.1 mAh g −1 and 561.5 mAh g −1 , respectively. The enhanced performance is mainly attributed to the double-coated structure with void space resulting from the carbon layer and wrinkled graphene sheets . The three-dimensional network structure from carbon shell and graphene is capable of improving the electrical conductivity of the composite, buffering the significant volume expansion due to the intercalation and deintercalation of lithium-ions on the Si-based electrode, providing accommodation space for the volume changes and diffusion paths for lithium-ions. Furthermore, the part amorphous structure derived from the nano-silicon exhibits a cushioning effect on the electrode structure during the discharge/charge process of lithium-ion batteries.

Tremendous attention has been paid to the structure and properties of silk fibroin/sodium alginate (SF/SA) composite films . However, there is no report devoted to study the formation of hydrogen bonds and their effects on the structures and properties. Herein, SF/SA blends with different mass ratios were obtained and the technic of Gaussian multi-peaks-fitting of Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR) was used to analyze their hydrogen bonds. From the results, the existence of the intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonds was manifested, and the relative strength of the intermolecular hydrogen bond enhanced with the increase of SA content. The contribution of the intermolecular hydrogen bonding was as follows: OH⋯O (ether) > OH … π > OH⋯N. Meanwhile, the increase of intermolecular hydrogen bonding led to the increase of apparent viscosity of the SF/SA blend solutions. Moreover, the relationship between the hydrogen bond and properties (e.g, crystallinity , thermal stability, mechanical properties, morphology and etc.) of SF/SA composite films with different mass ratios were analyzed in detail.
