The pretreatment and mechanical fibrillation are the two main stages involved in the preparation of LCNFs, and lignin plays the important role of these two stages. This review discussed the interaction between lignin and chemicals in the pretreatment stage, and discovered the general law of the effect of lignin in the mechanical fibrillation stage.Lignin exhibits both promotion and inhibition effects on mechanical fibrillation, and the mutual competition between the two effects ultimately affects the energy consumption, morphology and yield of LCNFs. Furthermore, the recent research progress related to the contributions of lignin on the functional application of LCNFs was summarized, aiming to provide profound guidance for the preparation and application of LCNFs.展开更多

After electrospinning process, these nanofi bers were thermally treated at different temperatures from 900 to 1 100 ℃. The morphology and crystal structure of the fi bers were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Thick fi lm gas sensors were fabricated by spinning the nanofi bers on a ceramic substrate with Au-Pt interdigitated electrodes. These sensors exhibited high ozone sensing properties at room temperature. When the sensors were exposed to 100 ppm ozone, the response time was about 2.74 s, and the recovery was about 12.68 s.展开更多

Polymer emulsions were utilized to mechanically reinforce the composite and bridge the cement, fly ash, aggregate and fibers. The results reveal that the epoxy emulsion and poly（ethylene-co-vinyl acetate） emulsion markedly enhance the mechanical and durability properties of cemetitious composites. The fi bers can be pulled out in the form of slip-hardening and the abrasion phenomenon can be observed clearly on the surface of the fibers. The hydration extent of cement is higher than that of the pristine composites. The polymer modified cementitious composites designed on micromechanics, have fl exibility and plasticity which could be applied for a novel form of multifunctional materials with a range of pipeline coatings applications.展开更多
