文摘K–Se batteries have been identified as promising energy storage systems owing to their high energy density and cost-effectiveness.However,challenges such as substantial volume changes and low Se utilization require further investigation.In this study,novel N-doped multichannel carbon nanofibers(h-NMCNFs)with hierarchical porous structures were successfully synthesized as efficient cathode hosts for K–Se batteries through the carbonization of two electrospun immiscible polymer nanofibers and subsequent chemical activation.Mesopores originated from the decomposition of the polymer embedded in the carbon nanofibers,and micropores were introduced via KOH activation.During the activation step,hierarchical porous carbon nanofibers with enhanced pore volumes were formed because of the micropores in the carbon nanofibers.Owing to the mesopores that enabled easy access to the electrolyte and the high utilization of chain-like Se within the micropores,the Se-loaded hierarchical porous carbon nanofibers(60 wt%Se)exhibited a high discharge capacity and excellent rate performance.The discharge capacity of the nanofibers at the 1,000th cycle was 210.8 mA.h.g^(-1)at a current density of 0.5C.The capacity retention after the initial activation was 64%.In addition,a discharge capacity of 165 mA.h.g^(-1)was obtained at an extremely high current density of 3.0C.

This paper reports a strain sensor with synergistic conductive network, consisting of stable carbon nanotube dispersion (CNT) layer and brittle MXene layer by dip-coating and electrostatic self-assembly method, and breathable three-dimensional (3D) flexible substrate of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) fibrous membrane prepared through electrospinning technology. The MXene/CNT@PDA-TPU (MC@p-TPU) flexible strain sensor had excellent air permeability, wide operating range (0–450 %), high sensitivity (Gauge Factor, GFmax = 8089.7), ultra-low detection limit (0.05 %), rapid response and recovery times (40 ms/60 ms), and excellent cycle stability and durability (10,000 cycles). Given its superior strain sensing capabilities, this sensor can be applied in physiological signals detection, human motion pattern recognition, and driving exoskeleton robots. In addition, MC@p-TPU fibrous membrane also exhibited excellent photothermal conversion performance and can be used as a wearable photo-heater, which has far-reaching application potential in the photothermal therapy of human joint diseases.
文摘In the context of rapid economic development,the pursuit of sustainable energy solutions has become a major challenge.Lithium-ion capacitors(LICs),which integrate the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries with the high power density of supercapacitors,have emerged as promising candidates.However,challenges such as poor capacity matching and limited energy density still hinder their practical application.Carbon nanofibers(CNFs),with their high specific surface area,excellent electrical conductivity,mechanical flexibility,and strong compatibility with active materials,are regarded as ideal electrode frameworks for LICs.This review summarizes key strategies to improve the electrochemical performance of CNF-based LICs,including structural engineering,heteroatom doping,and hybridization with transition metal oxides.The underlying mechanisms of each approach are discussed in detail,with a focus on their roles in improving capacitance,energy density,and cycling stability.This review aims to provide insights into material design and guide future research toward high-performance LICs for next-generation energy storage applications.

文摘Adsorption as an effective technique for the remediation of wastewater has been widely used in industrial wastewater treatment due to the advantage of cost-effectiveness,availability of the adsorbent and ease of operation.However,the low adsorption capacity of the reported adsorbents is still a challenge for wastewater treatment with highefficiency.Here,we developed a super adsorbent(SUA-1),which was a kind of porous carbon nanofibers derived from a composite of PAN-based electrospinning and ZIF-8(PAN/ZIF-8)via simple heat treatment process.The asprepared SUA showed an ultra-high adsorption capacity for adsorbing methyl blue(MB)at nearly three times its own weight,as high as 2998.18 mg/g.A series tests demonstrated that the pore-making effect of ZIF-8 during heat treatment process endowed high BET surface area and generated ZnO components as chemical adsorption center.Under the synergistic effect of bonding and non-bonding forces including ionic bond,electrostatic interaction,andπ-πinteraction,the adsorption capacity has been greatly improved.In view of promising efficiency,this work provides guidance and insights for the preparation of highly efficient adsorbents based on electrospinning derived porous carbon nanofibers.

文摘The mass discarding face masks has caused severe environmental problems during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.To reduce waste and minimize environmental impact,we present a new face mask featuring selfcharging extended service time and fully biodegradable materials.To extend the effective service time,we need to supplement the lost electric charge of the electret layer of face masks,for which task we propose to use the piezoelectric effect and generate electricity from breathing motions.However,existing piezoelectric materials are either toxic,impermeable,rigid,costly,or non-degradable.We synthesize a fully biodegradable piezoelectric membrane composed of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)and glycine(GLY)via the electrospinning process.Parameters are accurately controlled to ensure that glycine crystallizes into a highly piezoelectricβphase during electrospinning and enables piezoelectric responses of the filter membrane.Tested with the standard 0.3μm particles,face masks made of the PVA-GLY membrane show an outstanding filtration efficiency of 97%,which remains stable over at least 10 h of high-concentration continuous filtration.Furthermore,we demonstrated the biodegradability of PVA-GLY masks,which can degrade completely within a few weeks,compared to commonly used surgical masks requiring over thirty years to be decomposed.
文摘Electrospinning has gained significant importance across various fields,including biomedicine,filtration,and packaging due to the control it provides over the properties of the resulting materials,such as fiber diameter and membrane thickness.Chitosan is a biopolymer that can be utilized with both natural and synthetic copolymers,owing to its therapeutic potential,biocompatibility,and biodegradability.However,producing electrospun chitosan is challenging due to its high solution viscosity,which often results in the formation of beads instead of uniform fibers.To address this issue,the spinnability of chitosan is significantly enhanced,and the production of continuous nanofibers is facilitated by combining it with polymers such as polyethylene oxide(PEO)in suitable ratios.These chitosan–PEO nanofibers are primarily used in biomedical applications,including wound healing,drug delivery systems,and tissue engineering scaffolds.Additionally,they have shown promise in water treatment,filtration membranes,and packaging.Among all the nanofiber mats,chitosan/PEO-AC had the smallest fiber diameter(83±12.5 nm),chitosan/PEO_45S5 had the highest tensile strength(1611±678 MPa).This comprehensive review highlights recent advancements,ongoing challenges,and future directions in the electrospinning of chitosan-based fibers assisted by PEO.

文摘To solve the serious volume expansion problem of Sb-based anode materials in the alloying/dealloying process,a strategy combining electrospinning and hydrogen reduction is proposed to prepare a series of Sb-based alloys/carbon nanofiber composites(SbM/CNFs,M=Co,Zn,Ni).Inactive elements are innovatively introduced to form Sb based alloys with enhanced stability.The results show that the content of SbCo nanoparticles is high to 69.12%(mass),which are uniformly dispersed in carbon fibers.When evaluated as anode material for SIBs,SbCo/CNFs anode exhibits excellent sodium storage capacity,the initial discharge capacity is 580.0 mA h·g^(-1)at 0.1 A g^(-1),which can hold 483.5 mA h·g^(-1)after 100 cycles.Even the current density increases to 1.0 A g^(-1),the specific capacity still maintains at 344.5 mA h·g^(-1)after 150 cycles.The improved sodium storage capacity is attributed to the synergistic effect of conductive carbon fibers and SbCo nanoparticles with uniform dispersion,which not only provide excellent electronic conductivity,but also enhance structural stability to reduce volume change.

文摘Flexible covalent organic framework(COF)film has drawn much attention as a promising functional material due to their unique molecular structure and self-supporting property.However,the traditional solvothermal method of synthesizing flexible COF film is usually complicated,long-term duration and energy-consuming,making it unsuitable for scalable preparation.To address these limitations,a new method combining electrospinning and sacrificial template is proposed to quickly produce triazinebased COF fiber films at room temperature.The method is easy to operate and has a short reaction time(minimum 0.5 h)without dehydration and deoxygenation processes at room temperature,making it suitable for large-scale production(20 cm×30 cm).Different from the unprocessable of COF powder,COF films not only have good flexibility and mechanical properties,but also can be patterned with multiple functions to adapt to various application scenarios.Moreover,the functionality of triazine-structured COF is retained,enabling the use of the films in energy conversion and storage applications.Triazine-based COFs naturally have scalable conjugated structure,thus showing potential photocatalytic probability.Furthermore,the large pore structure of COF films enables loading of phase change materials endowing comprehensive properties of thermal management and flame retardance.This study proposes a strategy for the rapid synthesis of COF fiber films at room temperature and paves the way for multifunctional and high-performance COF based materials.

文摘The commercialization of lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries is significantly hindered by the severe shuttle effect of soluble lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)and the poor electrical conductivity of sulfur and its discharge products.To address these challenges,we designed and fabricated an integrated cathode material by decorating titanium nitride(TiN)nanorods(NDs)on three-dimensional(3D)interconnected carbon nanofibers(CNFs-TiN NDs)through a facile hydrothermal and electrospinning approach.The 3D porous network structure not only facilitates electrolyte infiltration and ion/electron transport but also provides ample space for sulfur accommodation.Moreover,the TiN nanorods serve a dual function:they effectively adsorb LiPSs to suppress the shuttle effect and enhance the conductivity of the electrode,thereby accelerating redox reaction kinetics and catalyzing the conversion of LiPSs into short-chain Li_(2)S.These mechanisms are further validated through density functional theory(DFT)calculations and comprehensive electrochemical analyses.Benefiting from these advantages,the CNFs-TiN NDs electrodes deliver outstanding electrochemical performance,including high discharge capacity,excellent rate capability,and remarkable cycling stability.This work provides a promising strategy for designing integrated electrocatalysts to achieve high-performance Li-S batteries.

文摘Radiative cooling fabric creates a thermally comfortable environment without energy input,providing a sustainable approach to personal thermal management.However,most currently reported fabrics mainly focus on outdoor cooling,ignoring to achieve simultaneous cooling both indoors and outdoors,thereby weakening the overall cooling performance.Herein,a full-scale structure fabric with selective emission properties is constructed for simultaneous indoor and outdoor cooling.The fabric achieves 94%reflectance performance in the sunlight band(0.3–2.5μm)and 6%in the mid-infrared band(2.5–25μm),effectively minimizing heat absorption and radiation release obstruction.It also demonstrates 81%radiative emission performance in the atmospheric window band(8–13μm)and 25%radiative transmission performance in the mid-infrared band(2.5–25μm),providing 60 and 26 W m−2 net cooling power outdoors and indoors.In practical applications,the fabric achieves excellent indoor and outdoor human cooling,with temperatures 1.4–5.5℃ lower than typical polydimethylsiloxane film.This work proposes a novel design for the advanced radiative cooling fabric,offering significant potential to realize sustainable personal thermal management.

文摘Low-cost and biodegradable photothermal wound dressings with remarkable therapeutic effects are highly desirable for next-generation wound healing.Herein,we report an efficient photothermal wound dressing mat made of tellurium nanosheet(TeNS)-loaded electrospun polycaprolactone/gelatin(PCL/GEL)nanofibers.The TeNS-loaded PCL/GEL nanofibrous architectures showed antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus of 87.68%and 94.57%,respectively.Under near-infrared+(NIR)light illumination,they can facilitate cell proliferation as revealed by in vitro scratch assay.The results from in vivo skin wounds combined with tissue staining experiments further showed that the TeNS-loaded dressing could substantially promote wound healing under photothermal conditions.Using immunohistochemical analysis,we found that the TeNS-loaded PCL/GEL nanofibers NIR group have a high expression of specific antigens in epidermal growth factor(EGF)(P<0.001)and endothelial cell adhesion molecule-31(CD31,P<0.05),verifying that the nanofibrous mat can stimulate EGF generation and microvessel proliferation.Furthermore,the PCL/GEL/TeNIR group has the lowest expression in endothelial cell adhesion molecule-68(CD68,P<0.001),suggesting that the nanofibrous mats have a high anti-inflammatory efficiency.Our work sheds light on the development of novel nonanti-inflammatory wound dressings via photothermal sterilization and the promotion of cell growth using two-dimensional(2D)nanosheets.

文摘Eliminating highly concentrated antibiotic wastewater by transition metal catalyst-assisted AOPs is challenging.Herein,by varying the metal precursor composition(Co/Fe ratios of 1/1,1.5/2/3),alloyed Co_(7)Fe_(3)nanocrystals or spinel-like CoFe_(2)O_(4)can be switched and both confined within the porous N-doped graphitic carbon fibers by electrospinning and controlled graphitization.Impressively,iron precursors played a dual role in working as reactive centers and main activators for the creation of porous carbon networks affording improved accessibility to catalytic sites and easy tetracycline(TC)diffusion effect.The catalytic activity of the resulting materials was closely related to surface metal valence and composition.Notably,the CoFe_(2)O_(4)exhibited a significant improvement in peroxymonosulfate(PMS)adsorption and activation,explained by the present electron-deficient Co and Fe synergetic sites together with the interesting Jahn-Teller effect.Fe_(1)Co_(2)/CNF demonstrated the highest efficiency in degrading TC,achieving a reaction rate constant of 0.4647 min^(-1)with a low activation energy of 9.3 kJ·mol^(-1),nearly a 7.5-fold enhancement compared to Fe_(1)Co_(3)/CNF(0.062 min^(-1)).The reaction mechanism and the role of reactive oxidative species revealed a synergy of·SO_(4)^(-),·OH,·O_(2)^(-)and^(1)O_(2).Wherein,·O_(2)^(-)plays a more dominant role in the degradation of TC than other reactive species.Additionally,a reinforced electron-transfer pathway in the Fe_(1)Co_(2)/CNF system during PMS interaction was demonstrated.Furthermore,the degradation routes of TC were unraveled,and the toxicity of various intermediate by-products was assessed.Importantly,our continuous flow-type TC degradation process and light-driven photothermal strengthened reaction process demonstrated consistent performance,thereby offering a promising approach for tackling highly concentrated antibiotic wastewater.

文摘Background:The development of materials for cardiovascular surgery that would improve the effectiveness of surgical interventions remains an important task.Surgical intervention during the implantation of vascular prostheses and stents,and the body’s reaction to artificial materials,could lead to chronic inflammation,a local increase in the concentration of proinflammatory factors,and stimulation of unwanted tissue growth.The introduction of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs into implantable devices could be used to obtain vascular implants that do not induce inflammation and do not induce neointimal tissue outgrowth.Methods:The scaffolds were made by electrospinning from mixtures of polyurethane(PU)with diclofenac(DF).The kinetics of DF release from the scaffolds composed of 3%PU/10%HSA/3%DMSO/DF and 3%PU/DF were studied.The biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory effects of the obtained scaffolds on human gingival fibroblasts and umbilical vein endothelial cells were studied.Results:Both types of scaffolds are characterized by fast DF release.The viability of cells cultured on scaffolds is 2 times worse than that of cells cultured on plastic.The level of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-6 in the culture medium of cells cultured on DF-containing scaffolds was lower than that of cells cultured on scaffolds without DF.Conclusion:The introduction of DF into scaffolds minimizes the inflammation caused by cell reactions to an artificial material.
