High-performance polyurethane nanocomposites based on UPy-modified cellulose nanocrystals
Densely H-bonding
assemblies are the key strategy found by nature to enhance the rupture strength
of natural polymers without sacrificing their toughness, such as spider silk,
while it still remains a great challenge using such intriguing strategy to
prepare high-performance synthesized polymer or biopolymer enhanced polymer
nanocomposites. To address this challenge, we report here a bio-inspired...

Study on photothermal PVDF/ATO nanofiber membrane and its membrane distillation performance
In this study, we proposed a novel method of suppressing the temperature polarization of membrane distillation (MD) by heating the hydrophobic membrane surface through the photothermal effects of antimony doped tin oxide (ATO). The photothermal polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/ATO hybrid nanofiber membranes were fabricated by electrospinning technology. Effects of ATO loading on the hybrid membranes...

69. Rational design of sulfur-containing composites for high-performance lithium–sulfur batteries
Sulfur has received considerable attention as a cathode material for lithium—sulfur (Li—S) batteries due to its high theoretical energy density (2567 W h kg?1), high earth abundance, and environmental benignity. However, the insulating nature of sulfur and the shuttle effect of soluble lithium polysulfides result in serious technical issues, such as low utilization rate of sulfur, reduced columb...

65. High-Performance Solution Based CdS Conjugated Hybrid Polymer Solar Cells
In this study, hybrid BHJ - bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells were fabricated by incorporating CdS quantum dots (QDs) in a blend of P3HT (donor) and PCBM (acceptor) using dichlorobenzene and chlorobenzene as solvents. CdS QDs at various ratios were mixed in a fixed amount of the P3HT and PCBM blend. The prepared samples have been characterized by a variety of techniques such as I-V and EQE m...

Mesoporous carbon material as cathode for high performance lithium-ion capacitor
Mesoporous carbon (MC) material with high specific surface area (1432 m(2)/g), large pore volume (2.894 cm(3)/g) and appropriate mesopore structure (about 6.5 nm) has been prepared. We use the magnesium citrate as the precursor of the carbon material and the nano-sized magnesium oxide (MgO) particles as template provided by magnesium citrate. The structure characterization and the electrochemical ...

Graphene quantum dots as a novel conductive additive to improve the capacitive performance for supercapacitors.
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) as a novel conductive agent with nanometer-scale instead of the common carbon black (CB) offer a promising round toconstruct an effective conductive network for the improvement of the supercapacitors'' capacitive performance. Interestingly, the electrochemical performance of activated carbon (AC)-based composite electrodes with different amounts of GQDs in two composit...

65. [Polymer] Joint double-network hydrogels with excellent mechanical performance
Based on the tough double-network hydrogel, a further crosslinked DN network hydrogel was developed and
named joint double network (JDN) hydrogel. The JDN hydrogel consisting of ionically cross-linked sodium
alginate (SA) as the first network, the chemically cross-linked poly (acrylamide-acrylic acid) (PAMAAc) as the
second network and both of them combined together by ferric ions. As a...

In-situ construction of "octopus"-like nanostructure to achieve high performance epoxy thermosets
Inspired by the octopus, a typical nanostructure consisting of a spherical “body” and worm-like “tentacles with suckers” was constructed through incorporating polydimethylsiloxane-block-poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-polystyrene (BXLS) in epoxy thermosets. The novel nanostructure of BXLS copolymer and its morphology evolution during the epoxy curing process were investigated by transmission ...

Carbon-Dot-Based Heterojunction for Engineering Band-Edge Position and Photocatalytic Performance
A photocatalytic reaction is always governed by energy band configuration
of the catalyst, but its modulation is challenging. Here, the adjustment of
band-edge positions of Ag3PO4 through fluorescent carbon dots is reported
for the first time. Both Ag3PO4 and carbon dots which keep the similar sizes
constitute a heterojunction. Such heterostructure not only promotes visib...

The intercalation of ammonium sulfamate into kaolinite and its effect on the fire performance of polypropylene.
Kaolinite has often been intercalated before being introduced into polymers to improve its dispersibility; however, the conventional intercalation usually reduces the flame retardancy of the composite. This work reports our recent efforts on improving both the flame retardant efficiency and dispersibility of kaolinite in polypropylene (PP) by intercalating with ammonium sulfamate (AS). The interca...
