In this study, interdigitated asymmetric all-solidstate flexible micro-supercapacitors(MSCs) were fabricated by a simple pencil drawing process followed by electrodepositing MnO_2 on one of the as-drawn graphite electrode as anode and the other as cathode.The as-prepared electrodes showed high areal specific capacitance of 220 μF/cm^2 at 2.5 μA/cm^2. The energy density and the corresponding power density of the resultant asymmetrical flexible MSCs were up to 110 μWh/cm^2 and 1.2 μW/cm^2, respectively. Furthermore, excellent cycling performance(91% retention of capacity after 1000 cycles) was achieved. The resultant devices also exhibited good electrochemical stability under bending conditions, demonstrating superior flexibility. This study provides a simple yet efficient methodology for designing and fabricating flexible supercapacitors applicable for portable and wearable electronics.展开更多

文摘Paper devices have recently attracted considerable attention as a class of cost-effective cell culture substrates for various biomedical applications.The paper biomaterial can be used to partially mimic the in vivo cell microenvironments mainly due to its natural three-dimensional characteristic.The paper-based devices provide precise control over their structures as well as cell distributions,allowing recapitulation of certain interactions between the cells and the extracellular matrix.These features have shown great potential for the development of normal and diseased human tissue models.In this review,we discuss the fabrication of paper-based devices for in vitro tissue modeling,as well as the applications of these devices toward drug screening and personalized medicine.It is believed that paper as a biomaterial will play an essential role in the field of tissue model engineering due to its unique performances,such as good biocompatibility,eco-friendliness,cost-effectiveness,and amenability to various biodesign and manufacturing needs.

文摘It is well established that paper-based separators display short-circuit risk in lithium-ion batteries due to their intrinsic micron-sized pores.In this research,we have adjusted pore structure of paper by fiber swelling in liquid electrolyte.Specifically,the paper-based separator is prepared by propionylated sisal fibers through a wet papermaking process.Scanning electron microscope(SEM)and multi-range X-ray nano-computed tomography(CT)images display strong swelling of modified fibers after electrolyte absorption,which can effectively decrease the pore size of separator.Due to the high electrolyte uptake(817 wt%),paper-based separator exhibits ionic conductivity of 2.93 mS cm^(-1).^(7)Li solid-state NMR spectroscopy and Gaussian simulation reveal that the formation of local high Li^(+)ion concentration in the separator and its low absorption energy with Li^(+) ion(62.2 kcal mol^(-1))is conducive to the ionic transportation.In particular,the assembled Li/separator/LiFePO_(4) cell displays wide electrochemical stability window(5.2 V)and excellent cycle performance(capacity retention of 96.6%after 100 cycles at 0.5C)due to the reduced side reactions as well as enhanced electrolyte absorption and retention capacity by propionylation.Our proposed strategy will provide a novel perspective to design high-performance biobased separators to boost the development of clean and sustainable energy economy.

文摘In traditional in situ polymerization preparation for solid-state electrolytes,initiators are directly added to the liquid precursor.In this article,a novel cellulose paper-based composite separator is fabricated,which employs alumina as the inorganic reinforcing material and is loaded with polymerization initiator aluminum trifluoromethanesulfonate.Based upon this,a separator-induced in situ directional polymerization technique is demonstrated,and the extra addition of initiators into liquid precursors is no longer required.The polymerization starts from the surface and interior of the separator and extends outward with the gradually dissolving of initiators into the precursor.Compared with its traditional counterpart,the separator-induced poly(1,3-dioxolane)electrolyte shows improved interfacial contact as well as appropriately mitigated polymerization rate,which are conducive to practical applications.Electrochemical measurement results show that the prepared poly(1,3-dioxolane)solid electrolyte possesses an oxidation potential up to 4.4 V and a high Li+transference number of 0.72.After 1000 cycles at 2 C rate(340 mA g^(−1)),the assembled Li||LiFePO_(4)solid battery possesses a 106.8 mAh g^(−1)discharge capacity retention and 83.5%capacity retention ratio,with high average Coulombic efficiency of 99.5%achieved.Our work may provide new ideas for the design and application of in situ polymerization technique for solid electrolytes and solid batteries.

文摘In this paper,we presented a novel strategy to employ a plantderived carbohydrate polymer,i.e.,cellulose,to prepare a hydrophobic composite.Cellulose was used as a scaffold,and ethylene-propylene side by side(ES)fiber was thermally melted and then coated on the cellulose surface to achieve hydrophobicity.Experimental results revealed that the thermocoating ES fibers greatly increased the water contact angle of the cellulose scaffold from 25°to 153°while simultaneously enhanced the wet tensile strength of the composite approximately 6.7-fold(drying temperature of 170℃)compared with the pure cellulose paper.In particular,compared with other related research,the prepared cellulose-based composite possessed excellent hydrophobicity and superior mechanical strength,which introduces a new chemical engineering approach to prepare hydrophobic cellulose-based functional materials.

文摘Nitrogen dioxide(NO_(2))is a representative toxicant in air pollution that mostly arises from the exhaust gas released by automobiles.It is related to various respiratory diseases such as pneumonia and sudden infant death syndrome.Additionally,because the toxicity of nitrogen dioxide is high in overpopulated areas(i.e.,a capital or metropolis),the development of simple,practical,and facile sensors is highly needed.This work presents a flexible and disposable paper-based NO_(2)sensor based on a reduced graphene oxide/chitosan(r GO/CS)composite.The synthesized r GO/CS composite can be easily flexed and deformed into various shapes,which are attributed to chitosan molecules that function as a dispersion and reduction agent and support material.In addition,this composite can be attached to paper owing to its adhesive property;hence it can be utilized in versatile applications in a disposable manner.By analyzing the conductive change of the r GO/CS composite when it reacts with NO_(2),we can detect nitrogen dioxide in a concentration range of 0–100 ppm with a detection limit of 1 ppm.Moreover,we performed NO_(2)detection in the exhaust gas released by automobiles using the r GO/CS composite for practical application.The results indicated that the r GO/CS composite has the potential to be used in feasible gas sensing as a facile and disposable sensor under various conditions.

文摘A novel paper-based analytical device(PAD)was prepared and applied to determine the xanthine oxidase(XOD)inhibitory activity of Salvia miltiorrhiza extracts(SME).First,polycaprolactone was 3D printed on filter paper and heated to form hydrophobic barriers.Then the modified paper was cut according to the specific design.Necessary reagents including XOD for the colorimetric assay were immobilized on two separate pieces of paper.By simply adding phosphate buffer,the reaction was performed on the double-layer PAD.Quantitative results were obtained by analyzing the color intensity with the specialized device system(consisting of a smartphone,a detection box and sandwich plates).The 3Dprinted detection box was small,with a size of 9.0 cm×7.0 cm×11.5 cm.Color component G performed well in terms of linearity and detection limits and thus was identified as the index.The reaction conditions were optimized using a definitive screening design.Moreover,a 10%glycerol solution was found to be a suitable stabilizer.When the stabilizer was added,the activity of XOD could be maintained for at least 15 days under 4℃ or-20℃ storage conditions.The inhibitory activity of SME was investigated and compared to that of allopurinol.The results obtained with the PAD showed agreement with those obtained with the microplate method.In conclusion,the proposed PAD method is simple,accurate and has a potential for point-of-care testing.It also holds promise for use in rapid quality testing of medicinal herbs,intermediate products,and preparations of traditional Chinese medicines.

文摘In this study,the effect of hot calendering process on the microstructure and properties of poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide)(PPTA) paper-based materials was investigated.The microstructures of the fracture surface,crystalline structure,and single fiber strength of the PPTA paperbased materials as well as the different bonding behaviors between the PPTA fibers and PPTA fibrids obtained before and after the hot calendering process were examined.The results indicated that a high linear pressure would result in a limited improvement of the strength owing to the unimproved paper structure.The optimal values of tensile index and dielectric strength of 56.6 N·m/g and 27.6 kV/mm,respectively,could only be achieved with a synergistic effects of hot calendering temperature and linear pressure(240℃ and 110 k N/m,respectively).This result suggested it was possible to achieve a significant reinforcement and improvement in the interfacial bonding of functional PPTA paper-based materials,and avoid the formation of unexpected pleats and cracks in PPTA paper-based materials during the hot calendering process.

文摘Flexible micro-scale energy storage devices as the key component to power the flexible miniaturized electronic devices are attracting extensive attention. In this study, interdigitated asymmetric all-solidstate flexible micro-supercapacitors(MSCs) were fabricated by a simple pencil drawing process followed by electrodepositing MnO_2 on one of the as-drawn graphite electrode as anode and the other as cathode.The as-prepared electrodes showed high areal specific capacitance of 220 μF/cm^2 at 2.5 μA/cm^2. The energy density and the corresponding power density of the resultant asymmetrical flexible MSCs were up to 110 μWh/cm^2 and 1.2 μW/cm^2, respectively. Furthermore, excellent cycling performance(91% retention of capacity after 1000 cycles) was achieved. The resultant devices also exhibited good electrochemical stability under bending conditions, demonstrating superior flexibility. This study provides a simple yet efficient methodology for designing and fabricating flexible supercapacitors applicable for portable and wearable electronics.

文摘The development of a single analytical platform with different functions is highly desirable but remains a challenge at present.Here,a paper-based device based on fluorescent carbon dots(CDs)functionalized paper/MnO_(2)nanosheets(MnO_(2)NS)hybrid devices(PCD/NS)was proposed for single-device multi-function applications.MnO_(2)NS functioned as a fluorescence quencher of CDs and recognizer of H_(2)O_(2)released from the oxidase catalyzed system.Fluorescence recovery would occur after the decomposition of MnO_(2)NS induced by H_(2)O_(2),by which a simple and effective strategy could be developed for fluorescence monitoring multiplex biological events.Xanthine(XA)sensing,xanthine oxidase(XOD)inhibitors screening analysis and chiral recognition of glucose enantiomers were performed on PCD/NS to investigate the multifunctional application of the paper-based device.By means of PCD/NS,XA could be determined in the range of 0.1–40μmol/L with a low detection of limit of 0.06μmol/L.The IC_(50)value of allopurinol,the model inhibitor of XOD,was sensitively detected to be 7.4μmol/L.Glucose enantiomers were also recognized in terms of the specific fluorescence response to d-glucose.This work firstly presented a paper-based device capable of biomarkers detection,inhibitors screening and chiral recognition,which enlightened a promising strategy for the construction of multifunctional devices and hold the great potential application in clinical diagnosis and drug discovery.

文摘In this work,a solely gravity and capillary force-driven flow chemiluminescence(GCF-CL)paper-based microfuidic device has been proved for the first time as a new platforn for inex-pensive,usable,mini mally instrumented dynamic chemiluninescence(CL)detection of chromium(Ⅲ)[Cr(Ⅲ)],where an appropriate angle of inclination between the loading and detection zones on the paper produces a rapid flow of CL prompt solution through the paper charnel.For this study,we use a cost-effective paper device that is manufactured by a simple wax screen-printing method,while the signal generated from the Cr(Ⅲ)-catalyzed oxidation of luminol by H_(2)O_(2) is recorded by a low-cost and luggable CCD camera.A series of GCF-CL affecting factors have been evaluated carefully.At optimal conditions,two linear relationships between GCF-CL intensities and the logarithms of Cr(Ⅲ)concentrations are obtained in the concentration mnges of 0.025-35 mg/L and 50-500 mg/L separately,with the detection limit of 0.0245mg/L for a les than 30s assay,and relative standard deviations(RSDs)of 38%,4.5%and 2.3%for 0.75,5 and 50 mg/L of Cr(Ⅲ)(n=8).The above results indicate that the GCF-CL paper-based microfluidic device possesses a receivable sensitivity,dynamic range,storage stability and reproducibility.Finally,the developed GCF-CL is utilized for Cr(Ⅲ)detection in real water samples.

文摘The development of simple and accurate detection of uracil-DNA glycosylase(UDG)is of great significance for early clinical diagnosis and biomedical research.Here,we on the first effort introduced the uracil bases into the rolling circle amplification(RCA)reaction to produce the functionalized pure DNA hydrogel(PDH)for UDG detection.During RCA process,methylene blue(MB)molecules as the indicators were encapsulated into PDH.The addition of UDG can remove the uracil bases of PDH to generate abasic sites,which are further cleaved with the assistance of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease(APE),thus resulting in the dissociation of PDH to release blue MB.By combining with the paper analytical devices as the signal readout platform,a colorimetric and electrochemical dual-signal biosensor was constructed for convenient and accurate detection of UDG.The proposed MB@PDH-based dual-signal sensing system exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity with a detection limit of 6.4104 U/mL(electrochemical method).It was also demonstrated that this sensing system showed excellent performance in UDG inhibitor screening,thus providing great potential in UDG-related disease diagnosis and drug discovery.

文摘Uric acid(UA)level is a pivotal clinical human-health biomarker providing predictive feedback for multitudinous well-known kidney,cardiovascular and metabolic syndrome diseases.Off-the-shelf UA detection methods clinically rely on uricase suffer from limitations such as high costs,longstanding result acquisition,circumscribed testing locations,rigorous expertise requirements,and difficulty in home-detecting due to serum testing systems.Here,inspired by the pH-paper,a scaleable,rapid,non-invasive/-enzymatic/-serodiagnostic,and home-detecting“abnormal UA alarm”platform for UA detection in saliva was developed by strategically integrating the proposed paper-based fluorescent sensing-materials(NIFP-SM)with a user-orientated intelligent red-green-blue(RGB)analysis device.Therefore,NIFP-SM is nano-engineered through straightforward inter-facial interactions of functional building blocks of on-demand naphthyl imide-derived fluorescent self-assembled micro-particles(NIFS)with lamellar structure and commercially-used filter paper.The NIFS possesses dominantly wide detection range(0-5000μmol/L)and high sensitivity(limit of detection=0.91μmol/L).Surprisingly,NIFS exhibited outstanding identifiability for uric acid even in the presence of 34 interferents,substantiating accurate detection-capability in intricate environments.Thus NIFP-SM equipped with NIFS resoundingly achieved efficient,rapid,and on-site visual detection of UA in saliva,urine-simulants,and foods.Further,the NIFP-SM-based auto-matic analysis platform integrated with an intelligent RGB analysis device was manufactured and enabled accurate quantitative,low-cost,non-invasive/-enzymatic/-serodiagnostic,rapid,home-detecting for UA,eliminating the need for costly equipment and specialized personnel and thereby facilitating early-warning detection of abnormal UA-levels associated diseases.
