However, this support is prone to corrosion under oxidative and harsh environments, thus limiting the durability of the fuel cells. Meanwhile, carbon corrosion would also weaken the linkage between Pt and the support material, which causes Pt agglomeration, and consequently, deterioration of the cell performance. To overcome the drawbacks of a Pt/C electrocatalyst, a hybrid support material comprising molybdenum disulfide and reduced graphene oxide is proposed and synthesized in this study to exploit the graphitic nature of graphene and the availability of the exposed edges of MoS2. TEM results show the uniform dispersion of Pt nanoparticles over the MoS2-rGO surface. Electrochemical measurements indicate higher ECSA retention and better ORR activity after 10000 potential cycles for Pt/MoS2-rGO as compared to Pt/C, demonstrating the improved durability for this hybrid support material.展开更多

For the last two kinds of azides that bear a CO2Me group at the para-position of the benzene ring, cascade reactions take place to generate the corresponding lactams in high yields. Compared with homogeneous control [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2, SMOF-1 exhibits remarkably increased photocatalysis activity as a result of synergistic effect of the [Ru(bpy)3]2+ units that form cubic cages to host the azide molecules and related intermediates. Moreover, SMOF-1 displays high recyclability and considerable photocatalysis activity after 3 to 12 runs.展开更多

This is commonly achieved by developing methods to increase the utilization of the platinum in the catalyst layer of the electrodes. In this paper, a novel process of the catalyst layers was introduced and investigated. A mixture of carbon powder and Nafion solution was sprayed on the glassy carbon electrode （GCE） to form a thin carbon layer. Then Pt particles were deposited on the surface by reducing hexachloroplatinic （IV） acid hexahydrate with methanoic acid. SEM images showed a continuous Pt gradient profile among the thickness direction of the catalytic layer by the novel method. The Pt nanowires grown are in the size of 3 nm （diameter） x l0 nm （length） by high solution TEM image. The novel catalyst layer was characterized by cyclic voltammetry （CV） and scanning electron microscope （SEM） as compared with commercial Pt/C black and Pt catalyst layer obtained from sputtering. The results showed that the platinum nanoparticles deposited on the carbon powder were highly utilized as they directly faced the gas diffusion layer and offered easy access to reactants （oxygen or hydrogen）.展开更多

In this article,we use three-stage DEA model to carry out empirical research of the supply efficiency of rural public service in 31 provinces and regions of China. The results show that if without control over exogenous environment variables and random brunt,the classic DEA method will overestimate the rural public service efficiency; after controlling the impact of the external environmental factors,the mean of supply efficiency of rural public service in 31 provinces and regions of China is 0. 697; the improved rural per capita income,population density,population size and the educational level of residents,is a significantly favorable factor for enhancing the supply efficiency of rural public service,while the increase in the proportion of fiscal spending on rural public service to GDP plays no significant role in improving the rural public service efficiency; according to their efficiency type,the provinces and regions should adopt some measures,such as improving the management level or expanding the supply scale,to improve the supply efficiency.展开更多

文摘Poly(p-phenylenebenzobisoxazole)nanofibers(PNF),as a novel kind of nanofibers,have attracted significant attention from researchers.However,their poor ultraviolet(UV)resistance limits their potential applications.In this work,zinc oxide(ZnO)was uniformly coated on the surface of PNF-containing polysilsesquioxane(POSS)via in-situ growth to obtain(POSS-PNF)@ZnO.Subsequently,(POSS-PNF)@ZnO wave-transparent composite paper was then fabricated using a“vacuum filtration-assisted hot-pressing”method.Based on the coordination interaction between O–Cdouble bondO groups of PNFs and ZnO,as well as the UV absorption/shielding capability of ZnO,the(POSS-PNF)@ZnO wave-transparent composite paper exhibited superior mechanical properties and UV resistance.At a hydrothermal reaction temperature of 80℃,the prepared(POSS-PNF)@ZnO wave-transparent composite paper exhibited the highest tensile strength(204.5 MPa)and toughness(12.3 MJ m^(−3)),which represents increases of 23.7%and 32.3%,respectively,compared to POSS-PNF wave-transparent paper.After 288 h of UV aging,the tensile strength retention rate was 77.4%,significantly higher than the 53.7%of POSS-PNF wave-transparent composite paper.Moreover,it exhibited excellent wave-transparent performance with a dielectric constant(ε)of 2.15 and a dielectric loss tangent(tanδ)of 0.044 at 10 GHz,resulting in a wave-transparent coefficient of 95.9%.

文摘A series of divinylphenyl-acryloyl chloride copolymers(PDVB-co-PACl)is synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization employing tert-butyl acrylate and divinylbenzene as monomers.PDVB-co-PACl is utilized to graft on the surface of spherical aluminum nitride(AlN)to prepare functionalized AlN(AlN@PDVB-co-PACl).Polymethylhydrosiloxane(PMHS)is then used as the matrix to prepare thermally conductive AlN@PDVB-co-PACl/PMHS composites with AlN@PDVB-co-PACl as fillers through blending and curing.The grafting of PDVB-co-PACl synchronously enhances the hydrolysis resistance of AlN and its interfacial compatibility with PMHS matrix.When the molecular weight of PDVB-co-PACl is 5100 g mol^(-1)and the grafting density is 0.8 wt%,the composites containing 75 wt%of AlN@PDVB-co-PACl exhibit the optimal comprehensive performance.The thermal conductivity(λ)of the composite is 1.14 W m^(-1)K^(-1),which enhances by 20%and 420%compared to theλof simply physically blended AlN/PMHS composite and pure PMHS,respectively.Meanwhile,AlN@PDVB-co-PACl/PMHS composites display remarkable hydrothermal aging resistance by retaining 99.1%of itsλafter soaking in 90°C deionized water for 80 h,whereas theλof the blended AlN/PMHS composites decreases sharply to 93.7%.

文摘Increasingly severe electromagnetic pollution is now in urgent need of materials with lightweight,excellent flame retardancy,and outstanding electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness(EMI SE).Renewable source-derived carbon foams and graphene have attracted extensive attention due to their 3D porous structure and remarkable electrical conductivity().In this work,annealed sugarcane(ASC)was prepared by removal of lignin from sugarcane via hydrothermal reaction,followed by annealing treatment.Then graphene oxide(GO)was filled by vacuum-assisted impregnation process and thermally annealed to obtain the ASC/reduced graphene oxide(rGO)hybrid foams.When the loading of rGO is 17 wt.%,the ASC/rGO hybrid foam(density,of 0.047 g/cm^3)exhibits the optimal of 6.0 S/cm,EMI SE of 53 dB,specific SE(SSE=SE/)/thickness(t)of 3830 dB·cm^2/g,and compressive strength of 1.33 MPa,which is 76%,36%,13%and 6%higher than those of ASC,respectively.Moreover,ASC/rGO presents excellent flame retardancy,thermal stability,and heat insulation,which remains constant under burning on an alcohol lamp and presents low thermal conductivity of 115.19 mW(m·K),close to the requirement for heat insulation.Synergistic effect of ASC and rGO not only significantly increase of ASC/rGO,but fully utilizes the capability of ASC and rGO to attenuate electromagnetic waves by virtue of unique porous structures and abundant interfaces.Such kind of lightweight EMI materials with excellent mechanical property,shielding performance,flame retardancy,and heat insulation is expected to tackle the key scientific and technical bottleneck problems of EMI materials,and will greatly expand the application of carbon nanomaterials in the field of aerospace industry.

文摘One kind of side chain liquid crystal epoxy(S-LCE)based on biphenyl mesomorphic unit is synthesized from 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid,4-phenyl phenol,and epichlorohydrin.And the intrinsic thermal conductive liquid crystal epoxy film(LCEF)simultaneously combining with intrinsic self-healing performance is then prepared via thiol-epoxide nucleophilic ring-opening reaction and coating method.1 H NMR and FTIR show that S-LCE and LCEF have been successfully prepared.S-LCE presents nematic liquid crystal from room temperature to 160℃.LCEF maintains nematic liquid crystal performance and shows highly intrinsic thermal conductivity&excellent self-healing performance.Thermal conductivity coefficient(λ)values in vertical direction(λ⊥)and parallel direction(λ‖)of LCEF are 0.33 and 1.25 W/mK,re spectively,much higher than that of general bisphenol A epoxy resin(E-51,λ⊥of 0.19 W/mK andλ‖of0.65 W/mK).Tensile strength of LCEF is 10.6 MPa,which can maintain at 90.6%and 61.3%after one and four cycles of self-healing behavior,respectively.In addition,LCEF presents a wide service temperature range(-9.8-251℃)and good thermal stability(THRI of 148.5℃).Simultaneously,LCEF has good transparency,flexibility,and tailorability,expected to be utilized in the fields of flexible electronic devices and intelligent structures.

文摘Poly(p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole)(PBO)fibers possess excellent dielectric,mechanical properties and heat resistance.However,the surface of PBO fibers is smooth and highly chemical inert,resulting in poor interfacial compatibility to polymer matrix,which severely limits its wider application in high-performance fiber-reinforced resin matrix composites.In this work,random copolymers(P(S-co-BCB-co-MMA))containing benzocyclobutene in the side-chain were synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer(RAFT)polymerization,which were then utilized to form dense random copolymer membrane on the surface of PBO fibers by thermally cross-linking at 250°C(PBO@P fibers).Four kinds of synthesized P(S-co-BCB-co-MMA)with different number-average molar mass(Mn)were well controlled and possessed narrow dispersity.When the Mnwas 32300,the surface roughness of PBO@P fibers was increased from 11 nm(PBO fibers)to 39 nm.In addition,PBO@P fibers presented the optimal interfacial compatibility with bisphenol A cyanate(BADCy)resins.And the single fiber pull-out strength of PBO@P fibers/BADCy micro-composites was 4.5 MPa,increasing by 45.2%in comparison with that of PBO fibers/BADCy micro-composites(3.1 MPa).Meantime,PBO@P fibers still retained excellent tensile strength(about 5.1 GPa).Overall,this work illustrates a simple and efficient surface functionalization method,which would provide a strong theoretical basis and technical support for controlling the surface structure&chemistry of inert substrates.

文摘Bisphenol A dicyanate ester resins modified by fluorine-containing liquid crystal compound(LCFE)are applied as polymer matrix(LCFE-BADCy),poly(p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole)(PBO)fibers as rein-forcements,and fluorine/adamantane PBO precursor(pre FABPBO)as interfacial compatibilizer to prepare the corresponding PBO fibers/FABPBO/LCFE-BADCy wave-transparent laminated composites.LCFE could improve the order degree of BADCy cured network,in favor of enhancing the wave-transparent perfor-mance,mechanical properties,and intrinsic thermal conductivity.The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of PBO fibers/FABPBO/LCFE-BADCy composites are highly temperature(25–200℃)and frequency(10^(4)–10^(7) Hz and 8.2–12.4 GHz)stable with the value of 2.49 and 0.003 under 10^(6) Hz at 25℃,and the corresponding wave transmission efficiency is 95.0%,higher than that of 92.5%for PBO fibers/BADCy com-posites.The interlamellar shear strength and flexural strength are respectively 50.7 MPa and 682.5 MPa,38.1%and 16.2%higher than those of PBO fibers/BADCy composites.Besides,the volume resistivity,breakdown voltage,heat resistance index,glass transition temperature,flame retardant grade,and ul-timate oxygen index of PBO fibers/FABPBO/LCFE-BADCy composites are respectively 5.3×10^(15)Ωcm,29.75 kV/mm,217.2℃,245.7℃,V-1 grade,and 33.6%,expected to be performed as a new generation of“lightweight/loading/wave-transparent”electromagnetic window materials in advanced military weapons and civil communication base station.

文摘Carbon black is utilized as a conventional electrocatalyst support material for proton exchange membrane fuel cells. However, this support is prone to corrosion under oxidative and harsh environments, thus limiting the durability of the fuel cells. Meanwhile, carbon corrosion would also weaken the linkage between Pt and the support material, which causes Pt agglomeration, and consequently, deterioration of the cell performance. To overcome the drawbacks of a Pt/C electrocatalyst, a hybrid support material comprising molybdenum disulfide and reduced graphene oxide is proposed and synthesized in this study to exploit the graphitic nature of graphene and the availability of the exposed edges of MoS2. TEM results show the uniform dispersion of Pt nanoparticles over the MoS2-rGO surface. Electrochemical measurements indicate higher ECSA retention and better ORR activity after 10000 potential cycles for Pt/MoS2-rGO as compared to Pt/C, demonstrating the improved durability for this hybrid support material.

文摘Ru(bpy)3]2+-cored supramolecular organic framework SMOF-1, assembled from a [Ru(bpy)3]2+-derived hexaarmed molecule and cucurbit[8]uril, has been demonstrated to heterogeneously catalyze visible light-induced reduction of phenyl, benzyl, 2-phenylethyl and 3-phenylpropyl azides in acetonitrile to produce the corresponding amines in good to high yields. For the last two kinds of azides that bear a CO2Me group at the para-position of the benzene ring, cascade reactions take place to generate the corresponding lactams in high yields. Compared with homogeneous control [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2, SMOF-1 exhibits remarkably increased photocatalysis activity as a result of synergistic effect of the [Ru(bpy)3]2+ units that form cubic cages to host the azide molecules and related intermediates. Moreover, SMOF-1 displays high recyclability and considerable photocatalysis activity after 3 to 12 runs.

文摘An extensive study has been conducted on the proton exchange membrane fuel cells （PEMFCs） with reducing Pt loading. This is commonly achieved by developing methods to increase the utilization of the platinum in the catalyst layer of the electrodes. In this paper, a novel process of the catalyst layers was introduced and investigated. A mixture of carbon powder and Nafion solution was sprayed on the glassy carbon electrode （GCE） to form a thin carbon layer. Then Pt particles were deposited on the surface by reducing hexachloroplatinic （IV） acid hexahydrate with methanoic acid. SEM images showed a continuous Pt gradient profile among the thickness direction of the catalytic layer by the novel method. The Pt nanowires grown are in the size of 3 nm （diameter） x l0 nm （length） by high solution TEM image. The novel catalyst layer was characterized by cyclic voltammetry （CV） and scanning electron microscope （SEM） as compared with commercial Pt/C black and Pt catalyst layer obtained from sputtering. The results showed that the platinum nanoparticles deposited on the carbon powder were highly utilized as they directly faced the gas diffusion layer and offered easy access to reactants （oxygen or hydrogen）.
文摘In this study,we investigated the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)on the(101)facet of pristine and W-doped CoP using the density functional theory.Two types of Co atoms are identified on the catalyst surface:the Co atoms that present the higher d band center are marked as valid sites,whereas the others are marked as invalid sites owing to their weaker H adsorption ability.It is further revealed that W-doping can decrease the d band center of the surface Co atoms,which is beneficial for the HER;however the exposure to W weakens the desorption of H.To address the strong adsorption effect of W,the doping sites and dopant content are analyzed,and the results indicate that 8.4 wt%W doping at the invalid surface Co sites is preferred;moreover,the optimal W content increases to 16.8 wt%when W is inserted into the subsurface.The effect of W doping is weakened when the doping site is far away from the surface.

文摘The long-range periodically ordered atomic structures in intermetallic nanoparticles(INPs)can significantly enhance both the electrocatalytic activity and electrochemical stability toward the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)compared to the disordered atomic structures in ordinary solid-solution alloy NPs.Accordingly,through a facile and scalable synthetic method,a series of carbon-supported ultrafine Pt_3Co_(x)Mn_(1-x)ternary INPs are prepared in this work,which possess the"skin-like"ultrathin Pt shells,the ordered L1_(2) atomic structure,and the high-even dispersion on supports(L1_(2)-Pt_3Co_(x)Mn_(1-x)/~SPt INPs/C).Electrochemical results present that the composition-optimized L1_(2)-Pt_3Co_(0.7)Mn_(0.3)/~SPt INPs/C exhibits the highest electrocata lytic activity among the series,which are also much better than those of the pristine ultrafine Pt/C.Besides,it also has a greatly enhanced electrochemical stability.In addition,the effects of annealing temperature and time are further investigated.More importantly,such superior ORR electrocatalytic performance of L1_(2)-Pt_3Co_(0.7)Mn_(0.3)/~SPt INPs/C are also well demonstrated in practical fuel cells.Physicochemical characterization analyses further reveal the major origins of the greatly enhanced ORR electrocata lytic performance:the Pt-Co-Mn alloy-induced geometric and ligand effects as well as the extremely high L1_(2) atomic-ordering degree.This work not only successfully develops a highly active and stable ordered ternary intermetallic ORR electrocatalyst,but also elucidates the corresponding"structure-function"relationship,which can be further applied in designing other intermetallic(electro)catalysts.
文摘Improving the supply efficiency of rural public service is an important way to solve the severe shortage of rural public service. In this article,we use three-stage DEA model to carry out empirical research of the supply efficiency of rural public service in 31 provinces and regions of China. The results show that if without control over exogenous environment variables and random brunt,the classic DEA method will overestimate the rural public service efficiency; after controlling the impact of the external environmental factors,the mean of supply efficiency of rural public service in 31 provinces and regions of China is 0. 697; the improved rural per capita income,population density,population size and the educational level of residents,is a significantly favorable factor for enhancing the supply efficiency of rural public service,while the increase in the proportion of fiscal spending on rural public service to GDP plays no significant role in improving the rural public service efficiency; according to their efficiency type,the provinces and regions should adopt some measures,such as improving the management level or expanding the supply scale,to improve the supply efficiency.
文摘In this work,highly monodispersed Pt-Ni alloy nanoparticles were directly deposited on carbon substrate through a facile electrodeposition strategy in the solvent system of N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF).A series of carbon supported Pt-Ni alloy electrocatalysts were synthesized under different applied electrode potentials.Among all as-obtained samples,the Pt-Ni/C electrocatalyst deposited at-1.73 V exhibits the optimal specific activity up to 1.850 mA cm^(-2)at 0.9 V vs.RHE,which is 6.85 times higher than that of the commercial Pt/C.Comprehensive physiochemical characterizations and computational evaluations via density functional theory were conducted to unveil the nucleation and growth mechanism of PtNi alloy formation.Compared to the aqueous solution,DMF solvent molecule must not be neglected in avoiding particle agglomeration and synthesis of monodispersed nanoparticles.During the alloy co-deposition process,Ni sites produced through the reduction of Ni(Ⅱ)precursor not only facilitates Pt-Ni alloy crystal nucleation but also in favor of further Pt reduction on the Ni-inserted Pt surface.As for the deposition potential,it adjusts the final particle size.This work provides a hopeful extended Pt-based catalyst layer production strategy for proton exchange membrane fuel cells and a new idea for the nucleation and growth mechanism exploration for electrodeposited Pt alloy.
文摘A block copolymer of PDMS-b-PGMA is synthesized by polymerizing glycidyl methacrylate(GMA)via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer(RAFT)polymerization applying a polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)based macro-RAFT agent,which is then performed to functionalize the quartz fibers(QFs@PDMS-b-PGMA)via a simple coating process.Finally,the QFs@PDMS-b-PGMA/bisphenol A dicyanate ester(BADCy)wave-transparent laminated composites are fabricated by high-temperature molding.Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy,Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)spectroscopy and size ex-clusion chromatography(SEC)demonstrate the successful preparation of PDMS-b-PGMA with expected structure.When the molar mass and coating amount of PDMS-b-PGMA are respectively 8100 g/mol and 2.0 wt.%,QFs@PDMS-b-PGMA/BADCy wave-transparent laminated composites present optimal mechan-ical properties and wave-transparent performance.The interlaminar shear strength(ILSS)and flexural strength are 53.6 and 552.0 MPa,respectively.Meanwhile,the dielectric constant and dielectric loss val-ues are 2.61 and 0.0028 at 1 MHz(wave transmittance of 93.8%),showing good stability at different frequencies(102-106 Hz and 8.4-12.4 GHz)and temperatures(25-250℃).

文摘Oxygen evolution reaction(OER)and oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)play critical roles in renewable electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices,such as regenerative fuel cells and metal-air batteries[1-4].Up to date,precious metal-based catalysts,e.g.Pt-based materials for ORR,IrO_(2)/RuO_(2)-based catalysts for OER[5-7],lead the way in speeding up the sluggish reaction kinetics due to their high catalytic activities.However,the large-scale commercialization of these catalysts has been seriously restricted by their scarcity and high cost.
