How to monitor this parameter is an important issue in the rubber industry, but there is currently no suitable technical solution for numerical monitoring that can be applied in automatic production line. The labeling of silica in rubber is a challenge that bottlenecks the development of numerical quality monitoring technology. In this work, we employed the organometallic europium to modify silica endowing the fiuorescence properties for characterization. It provides more feasible solutions for visually studying the relationship between the submicroscopic structure and macroscopic properties of inorganic-filled polymers, and is the key foundation for achieving numerical monitoring of rubber filler qualities in industry.展开更多

The effects of the feed ratio of V_2O_5 to melamine(r), and nitrogen flow rate on the microstructure and electrochemical performance were also investigated. It was found that the size of the as-synthesized nanoparticles is about 20 nm. Both r value and N_2 flow rate have enormous impacts on morphology and microstructure of the nanoparticle, which correspondingly determined the electrochemical performance of the material. The VN/C hybrid nanoparticles exhibited high capacitive properties, and a maximum specific capacitance of 255.0 Fg^(-1) was achieved at a current density of 1.0 Ag^(-1) in 2 M KOH aqueous electrolyte and the potential range from 0 to -1.15 V. In addition,symmetrical supercapacitor fabricated with the as-synthesized VN/PCNPs presents a high specific capacitance of 43.5 F g^(-1) at 0.5 A g^(-1) based on the entire cell, and an energy density of 8.0 Wh kg^(-1) when the power density was 575 W kg^(-1). Even when the power density increased to 2831.5 W kg^(-1), the energy density still remained 6.1 Wh kg^(-1).展开更多

Alumina matrix composites reinforced with CNTs were fabricated by a catalytic chemical vapor deposition method. A1203 composites with different CNT concentrations were synthesized. The electrical characteristic of A1203/CNTs composites was examined. These composites were machined by the EDM process according to the various EDM parameters, and the characteristics of machining were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The electrical conductivity has a increasing tendency as the CNTs content is increased and has a critical point at 5% A1203 (volume fraction). In the machining accuracy, many tangles of CNT in A1203/CNTs composites cause violent spark. Thus, it causes the poor dimensional accuracy and circularity. The results show that conductivity of the materials and homogeneous distribution of CNTs in the matrix are important factors for micro-EDM of A1203/CNTs hybrid composites.展开更多

文摘The micro-dispersion structure of silica fillers exerts significant infiuences on the performance characteristics of rubber-based products. How to monitor this parameter is an important issue in the rubber industry, but there is currently no suitable technical solution for numerical monitoring that can be applied in automatic production line. The labeling of silica in rubber is a challenge that bottlenecks the development of numerical quality monitoring technology. In this work, we employed the organometallic europium to modify silica endowing the fiuorescence properties for characterization. It provides more feasible solutions for visually studying the relationship between the submicroscopic structure and macroscopic properties of inorganic-filled polymers, and is the key foundation for achieving numerical monitoring of rubber filler qualities in industry.

文摘Electrode materials that rely on conversion reactions for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)possess high energy densities.However,a key issue in their design is bolstering their stability and minimizing volume variations during lithiation and delithiation.Herein,an effect-ive strategy was devised to fulfill the fully reversible conversion reaction for lithium storage in CoMoO_(4) through the hybridization of Co-MoO_(3).CoMoO_(3)/CoMoO_(4) with a nanorod structure was synthesized via one-step annealing treatment after a solvothermal process.In such a structure,the CoMoO_(3)/CoMoO_(4) nanorod can considerably boost mechanical robustness and offer ample space to counteract volume fluctuations throughout successive cycles owing to the cooperative interaction between CoMoO_(3) and CoMoO_(4).CoMoO_(3)/CoMoO_(4) exhib-ited superior lithium-storage capacity(919.6 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g after 200 cycles)and cycling stability(683.4 mAh/g at 1 A/g after 600 cycles).CoMoO_(3)/CoMoO_(4) showed a high potential as an anode material for LIBs.

文摘Hybrid materials with synergistic properties have been used for various applications.Herein,we report a green biosynthesis strategy for the fabrication of a novel Pd/bacteria@ZIF-8 composite,featuring a sandwiched structure and size-selective capabilities.The Shewanella oneidensis(S.oneidensis)MR-1 was selected as the biological reductant to reduce Pd ions and synthesize Pd nanoparticles anchored on the surface of bacteria without the need for additional chemical reductants,bonding agents and toxic surfactants.This innovative sandwiched Pd/bacteria@ZIF-8 catalyst was further coated by the ZIF-8 to enhance its structural integrity.The as-prepared composite exhibits significant catalytic activity and excellent size-selective performance in the hydrogenation of olefins.This methodology opens up a horizon to designing size-selective catalysts through constructing the sandwiched structure.

文摘Herein,a simple and effective outer-surface interactions assisted supramolecular hierarchical assembly has been first exploited to uniformly distribute tungstosilicic acid(TSA)inside the porous structure of cucurbit[10]uril-based single-layer 2D supramolecular-organic-frameworks(Q[10]-SOFs)in water.Importantly,the 2D Q[10]-SOFs can further serve as light harvesting antenna,achieving fast energy transfer to the embedded redox-active TSA upon photoexcitation,resulting in efficient visible light-driven selective oxidation of benzyl alcohols into the corresponding aldehydes in high yield at room temperature.Further studies revealed that the integrated of 2D Q[10]-SOFs and TSA played a key role in the catalytic process,due to the presence of a novel stepwise electron transfer route in the single-layer hybrid 2D structures.

文摘The increasingly severe electromagnetic microwave pollution raises higher requirements for the development of efficient microwave absorption(MA)materials.Metal sulfides are regarded as potential robust MA materials because of their unique optical,thermal,electrical,and magnetic properties,as well as the controllable microstructures.However,due to the limited MA performances of unary metal sulfides,morphology regulations and foreign materials hybridizations are adopted as effective strategies to improve their MA performances.Recent years witnessed the fast research progresses on the metal sulfides based MA materials and thus,a systematic literature survey on the materials design,fabrication,characterizations,MA behaviors,and the mechanisms behind is,highly desirable to summarize the rapid progress of this hot research area so as to provide guidance for the future development trend.This review firstly reviewed the research background,research progress,and basic principles of MA materials.Subsequently,the present synthetic methods and performance improvement strategies of metal sulfides based MA materials are systematically introduced.Then,by comparing the MA properties of one-dimensional,two-dimensional,and three-dimensional metal sulfides based composites,the influence of dimensionality and morphology on the MA properties are analyzed.By summarizing the research process of metal sulfides/dielectrics composites,metal sulfides/magnets composites,and metal sulfides/dielectrics/magnets composites MA materials,the influence of foreign materials hybridizations on the loss mechanisms and impedance matching conditions of metal sulfides based composites are revealed.Finally,the challenges and development prospects of metal sulfides based MA materials are presented.This review would provide a comprehensive understanding and insightful guidance for the exploration and development of efficient MA materials with thin thickness,light weight,wide absorption bandwidth,and strong absorption intensity.

文摘Photoluminescent hybrid materials containing carboxymethyl cellulose and lanthanide ions(Eu3+, Tb3+)were prepared by a facile method under ambient conditions. Lanthanide ions were covalently grafted to the cellulose framework through coordination with the carboxylic groups of the cellulose. Hybrid materials were fabricated as hydrogel and aerogel. As shown by SEM and pore parameters, aerogel materials which were obtained by supercritical CO2 drying show hierarchical porous structure. The photoluminescence spectrum of the hybrid materials shows the characteristic red emission of Eu3+ ion and green emission of Tb3+. Further luminescent investigations reveal that these hybrid materials can detect Fe3+ with relative selectivity and high sensitivity, which suggests that the hybrid materials could be a promising luminescent probe for selectively sensing Fe3+ ion.

文摘Hybrid materials of vanadium nitride and porous carbon nanoparticles(VN/PCNPs) were fabricated by a facile pyrolysis process of vanadium pentoxide(V_2O_5) xerogel and melamine at relatively low temperature of 800 °C for supercapacitor application. The effects of the feed ratio of V_2O_5 to melamine(r), and nitrogen flow rate on the microstructure and electrochemical performance were also investigated. It was found that the size of the as-synthesized nanoparticles is about 20 nm. Both r value and N_2 flow rate have enormous impacts on morphology and microstructure of the nanoparticle, which correspondingly determined the electrochemical performance of the material. The VN/C hybrid nanoparticles exhibited high capacitive properties, and a maximum specific capacitance of 255.0 Fg^(-1) was achieved at a current density of 1.0 Ag^(-1) in 2 M KOH aqueous electrolyte and the potential range from 0 to -1.15 V. In addition,symmetrical supercapacitor fabricated with the as-synthesized VN/PCNPs presents a high specific capacitance of 43.5 F g^(-1) at 0.5 A g^(-1) based on the entire cell, and an energy density of 8.0 Wh kg^(-1) when the power density was 575 W kg^(-1). Even when the power density increased to 2831.5 W kg^(-1), the energy density still remained 6.1 Wh kg^(-1).

文摘Mesoporous poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride)/silica hybrid materials have been prepared. The synthesis was achieved by the HCl-catalyzed sol-gel reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer in the presence of 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) as a coupling agent and citric acid as a nonsurfactant template or pore-forming agent, followed by ethanol extraction. Characterization results from nitrogen sorption isotherms and powder X-ray diffraction indicate that polymer-modified mesoporous materials with large specific surface areas (e.g. 900 m(2)/g) and pore volumes (e.g. 0.6 cm(3)/g) could be prepared. As the citric acid concentration is increased, the specific surface areas, pore volumes and pore diameters of the hybrid materials increase.

文摘The characteristic evaluation of aluminum oxide (A1203)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hybrid composites for micro-electrical discharge machining (EDM) was described. Alumina matrix composites reinforced with CNTs were fabricated by a catalytic chemical vapor deposition method. A1203 composites with different CNT concentrations were synthesized. The electrical characteristic of A1203/CNTs composites was examined. These composites were machined by the EDM process according to the various EDM parameters, and the characteristics of machining were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The electrical conductivity has a increasing tendency as the CNTs content is increased and has a critical point at 5% A1203 (volume fraction). In the machining accuracy, many tangles of CNT in A1203/CNTs composites cause violent spark. Thus, it causes the poor dimensional accuracy and circularity. The results show that conductivity of the materials and homogeneous distribution of CNTs in the matrix are important factors for micro-EDM of A1203/CNTs hybrid composites.

文摘By employing a rational approach,we prepared a novel kind of luminescent europium-centered hybrid material named Eu(tta)_(3)NCP-TiO_(2).The resulting material was characterized by FT-IR spectra,SEM,X-ray diffraction,thermogravimetric analysis,and photoluminescence spectra.The hybrid material features the combined advantages of the europium complex and the titania host,exhibiting not only good thermostability,but also long luminescence lifetime.Owing to the excellent luminescence of this material,the application in detecting organic small molecule solvents and metal ions was explored systematically.Significantly,Eu(tta)_(3)NCP-TiO_(2) exhibits superior detection for nitrobenzene molecule and Cu^(2+) ion in DMF(N,N-dimethylformamide) medium.Furthermore,the limit of detection(LOD) of Eu(tta)_(3)NCP-TiO_(2) for nitrobenzene and Cu^(2+) ion can be counted as 5.593× 10^(-5) and 9.566 ×10^(-5) mol/L,respectively.The results demonstrate that Eu(tta)_(3)NCP-TiO_(2) can serve as an efficient fluorescence probe for the detection of sensing of nitrobenzene and Cu^(2+) ion.
