The results showed that small addition(0.2 vol% and 0.5 vol%) of GNPs can lead to a simultaneous increase in the tensile strength and ductility of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites, as compared with the same processed pure Al. With increasing GNPs content, the tensile strength of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites can be enhanced to 387 MPa with retained elongation of 15%. Meanwhile, the GNPs/Al nanocomposites exhibited a good electrical conductivity of77.8%–86.1% that of annealed pure Al. The excellent properties(high strength, high ductility and high conductivity) of the GNPs/Al are associated with the particular ARC process, which facilitates the uniform dispersion of GNPs in the matrix and formation of ultrafine-grained Al matrix. The strengthening and toughening of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites were discussed considering different mechanisms and the unique effect of GNPs.展开更多

Four study areas located in California,Texas, Kansas, and Minnesota, USA were selected for image compositingand land cover classification. Results indicated that images compositedusing weighted scoring-based algorithms have the best spatial fidelitycompared to other three algorithms. In addition, the weighted scoringbasedalgorithms have superior classification accuracy, followed bymedian, maximum NDVI, and medoid in descending order. However, themedian algorithm has a significant advantage in computational efficiencywhich was ~70 times that of weighted scoring-based algorithms, andwith overall classification accuracy just slightly lower (~0.13% onaverage) than weighted scoring-based algorithms. Therefore, werecommended the weighted scoring-based compositing algorithms forsmall area land cover mapping, and median compositing algorithm forthe land cover mapping of large area considering the balance betweencomputational complexity and classification accuracy. The findings of thisstudy provide insights into the performance difference between variouscompositing algorithms, and have potential uses for the selection ofpixel-based image compositing technique adopted for land covermapping based on Landsat time series data.展开更多

The findings of thisstudy provide insights into the performance difference between variouscompositing algorithms, and have potential uses for the selection ofpixel-based image compositing technique adopted for land covermapping based on Landsat time series data.

文摘Ultrasonic-Assisted Grinding(UAG)is a novel manufacturing technology that shows promising promise for use in processing Ceramic Matrix Composites(CMCs).Nevertheless,analyzing the material removal process of CMCs with multidirectional structure during UAG is challenging,impeding the progress and improvement of the UAG process.This work examined the impact of ultrasonic vibration on the dynamic mechanical characteristics during processing.Additionally,we experimentally elucidated the material removal mechanism of CMCs during the scratching process under the influence of vertical vibration.The results indicate that the introduction of ultrasonic vibration causes a strain rate effect,resulting in a modification of the material removal mechanism,subsequently impacting the processing quality.Ultrasonic vibration increases the dynamic strength and brittleness of the fibers in CMCs,leading to more cracks at fracture,which changes from the original bending fracture to shear fracture.In addition,ultrasonic vibration can effectively inhibit the impact of scratching depth and anisotropy on the removal mechanism of CMCs,resulting in a more uniform surface of CMCs after processing.

文摘With the rapid development of modern electronic technology,the demand for high-performance microwave absorption materials has increased dramatically.In order to meet this demand,the electrospinning of FeNiCo/carbon nanofiber(FeNiCo/CNF)composites with excellent microwave absorption properties was developed,and their potential as high frequency microwave absorption materials was evaluated.Experiment showed that FeNiCo/CNFs achieve a minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of−55.5 dB with a matching thickness of only 1.6 mm.Microstructure analysis and electromagnetic parameter testing showed that the excellent microwave absorbing properties were mainly due to the combined effect of the network structure of carbon nanofibers and the FeNiCo alloy.This interaction promotes multiple reflections and the efficient absorption of microwaves.Computer simulation also showed that the FeNiCo/CNF composites produce an excellent radar cross-section reduction in typical radar operating frequency bands,which validates their potential application in stealth technology.This is a new concept in the development of high-performance microwave absorption materials.

文摘KIT-5/Beta composite supports were synthesized using an in situ self-assembly hydrothermal method,and NiW/KIT-5/Beta catalysts were prepared by impregnation.A series of characterization techniques were utilized to evaluate the influence of varying hydrothermal synthesis temperatures on the physicochemical properties of both the KIT-5/Beta supports and the resulting catalysts.The catalytic performances of catalysts were evaluated under reaction conditions of 320℃,4 MPa H_(2)pressure,and a weight hourly space velocity(WHSV)of 4.8 h^(-1)for hydrodenitrogenation(HDN)of quinoline.The results indicated that the specific surface area and pore structure of the materials could be effectively regulated by adjusting the hydrothermal synthesis temperature,which in turn influenced the number of active sites on the catalyst.The NiW/KB-125 catalyst,synthesized at 125℃,presented the highest quinoline HDN efficiency(96.8%),which can be attributed to its favorable pore channel structure,greater Brønsted acid number,higher degree of metal sulfidation(80.12%)and appropriate metal-support interaction(MSI).

文摘Carbon fiber-reinforced carbon aerogel(C/CA)composites are one of the most promising candidates for applications requiring both thermal insulation and load bearing capabilities.The preparation of anti-oxidation coatings on C/CA to address its susceptibility to oxidation is a feasible approach to promote its application in oxidative environments.However,the currently reported coatings on C/CA mainly focus on improving the ablation performance and coating preparation process typically necessitating high-temperature heat treatment.This procedure can increase its thermal conductivity and reduce its thermal insulation ability.In this study,a series of ceramic-resin coatings were fabricated on C/CA through a simple slurry brushing-drying approach at room temperature.The effects of phenolic resin content on the coating structure,residual stress,thermal shock,and oxidation behaviors were investigated.Due to the adhesive properties and curing-induced shrinkage,the PR-7.5 coating(containing 7.5%(in mass)phenolic resin in the slurry)exhibits bonding strength close to fracture strength of the substrate and residual compressive stress of 0.853 GPa,which is beneficial for resisting thermal shock cracking.However,excessive resin content(PR-10.0 containing 10.0%(in mass)phenolic resin in the slurry)induces tensile stress due to uneven curing shrinkage,thereby leading to thermal shock cracking.Meanwhile,oxidation tests reveal significantly reduced weight losses for PR-7.5(17.46%at 800℃/100 min,8.15%at 1000℃/120 min,3.15%at 1200℃/120 min)versus uncoated C/CA’s 44.60%loss at 800℃/20 min.This work provides a brand-new and simple approach to improving the anti-oxidation performance of C/CA and expands its application in mild oxidative environments.
文摘A composite electrocatalyst,CoMoNiO-S/NF-110(NF is nickel foam),was synthesized through electrodeposition,followed by pyrolysis and then the vulcanization process.CoMoNiO-S/NF-110 exhibited a structure where Ni3S2 and Mo2S3 nanoparticles were integrated at the edges of Co3O4 nanosheets,creating a rich,heterogeneous interface that enhances the synergistic effects of each component.In an alkaline electrolyte,the synthesized CoMoNiO-S/NF-110 exhibited superior electrocatalytic performance for oxygen evolution reaction(OER),achieving current densities of 100 and 200 mA·cm^(-2) with low overpotentials of 199.4 and 224.4 mV,respectively,outperforming RuO2 and several high-performance Mo and Ni-based catalysts.This excellent performance is attributed to the rich interface formed between the components and active sites exposed by the defect structure.
文摘The poor electrical conductivity of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)limits their electrocatalytic performance in the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).In this study,a Py@Co-MOF composite material based on pyrene(Py)molecules and{[Co2(BINDI)(DMA)_(2)]·DMA}_(n)(Co-MOF,H4BINDI=N,N'-bis(5-isophthalic acid)naphthalenediimide,DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide)was synthesized via a one-pot method,leveragingπ-πinteractions between pyrene and Co-MOF to modulate electrical conductivity.Results demonstrate that the Py@Co-MOF catalyst exhibited significantly enhanced OER performance compared to pure Co-MOF or pyrene-based electrodes,achieving an overpotential of 246 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2) along with excellent stability.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the formation of O*in the second step is the rate-determining step(RDS)during the OER process on Co-MOF,with an energy barrier of 0.85 eV due to the weak adsorption affinity of the OH*intermediate for Co sites.CCDC:2419276.

文摘Graphene/copper-based composite heat sinks demonstrate extensive application potential in military equipment thermal management,high-power electronic packaging,new energy vehicles,and 5G communication systems,due to their outstanding properties,including high thermal conductivity,tunable thermal expansion coefficients,excellent mechanical strength,and low density.However,the industrial-scale application of these composites faces critical challenges during the fabrication of components with complex structures,such as inhomogeneous dispersion of graphene within the copper matrix and poor interfacial bonding between the two phases,which substantially undermine the overall performance of graphene/copper-based composites.To address these issues,the preparation methods for graphene/copper-based composite heat sinks were reviewed.For each method,a rigorous analysis was presented to clarify its inherent advantages and unavoidable restrictions.Furthermore,the latest research progress in addressing three core scientific challenges was synthesized,including uniform dispersion of graphene,interfacial optimization mechanisms,and molecular dynamics simulations for elucidating the structure-property relationships.Finally,the future development directions of graphene/copper-based composite heat sinks in engineering applications were prospected.

文摘Copper manufactured by laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)process typically exhibits poor strength-ductility coordination,and the addition of strengthening phases is an effective way to address this issue.To explore the effects of strengthening phases on Cu,Cu-carbon nanotubes(CNTs)composites were prepared using LPBF technique with Cu-CNTs mixed powder as the matrix.The formability,microstructure,mechanical properties,electrical conductivity,and thermal properties were studied.The result shows that the prepared composites have high relative density.The addition of CNTs results in inhomogeneous equiaxed grains at the edges of the molten pool and columnar grains at the center.Compared with pure copper,the overall mechanical properties of the composite are improved:tensile strength increases by 52.8%and elongation increases by 146.4%;the electrical and thermal properties are also enhanced:thermal conductivity increases by 10.8%and electrical conductivity increases by 12.7%.

文摘The TiB+TiC dual-reinforced B_(4)C/TC4 composite was in-situ fabricated via incorporating 0.5wt%B_(4)C reinforcement during the laser melting deposition process.Different heat treatments of annealing and solid solution were used to regulate the microstructure,mechanical properties,and corrosion properties of B_(4)C/TC4 composite.Results show that with the increase in temperature from 500℃to 800°C,partial lamellarα-Ti in the as-deposited sample is gradually transformed into equiaxedα-Ti,accompanied by the disappearance of basketweave microstructure.At 1100°C,a small portion of TiC phase suffers fusion.This composite exhibits the optimal combination of strength and plasticity after annealing at 500℃for 4 h followed by furnace cooling,which is attributed to the stress release effect and the refined basketweave microstructure.However,this composite shows a decline in corrosion resistance after various heat treatments due to grain coarsening and micro-galvanic corrosion.
文摘In this study,using 3,5‑di(3′,5′‑dicarboxylphenyl)‑1H‑1,2,4‑triazole(H4L)as ligands,a gadolinia‑based organic framework complex{[GdNa(L)(H_(2)O)3]·2H_(2)O}_(n)(Gd‑Na‑MOF)was successfully designed and synthesized by hydrothermal method.The structure and properties were systematically characterized and tested by techniques such as single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction,powder X‑ray diffraction,thermogravimetric analysis,infrared spectroscopy,and fluorescence spectroscopy.The results indicate that this complex has a unique 3D structure,excellent thermal stability,and outstanding luminescent performance.Based on its luminescent properties,a polymer‑embedding method was employed to fabricate the Gd‑Na‑MOF into a flexible,washable composite fluorescent film,Gd‑Na‑MOF@PMMA/BMA(PMMA=polymethyl methacrylate,BMA=butyl methacrylate).This fluorescent film exhibited highly sensitive recognition capability for tyramine,with a low detection limit of 1.66μmol·L^(-1).It was used for the detection of tyramine in bananas,with a recovery rate of 96.92%‑100.26%.CCDC:2466949.
文摘The escalating pace of industrialization has significantly intensified water pollution challenges,for instance,the persistent organic pollutants like methyl orange(MO).Conventional remediation techniques,such as adsorption and biological degradation,are often hampered by low efficiency and the risk of secondary pollution.Photocatalysis emerges as a promising sustainable alternative;however,the benchmark material titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))suffers from its intrinsic limitations,notably its wide bandgap energy(≥3.4 eV)restricting its activity to the region of the ultraviolet light and its rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers.To overcome these constraints,this research focused on synthesizing novel TiO_(2)/Sn_(3)O_(4) heterojunction composite photocatalysts via a solvothermal approach.Comprehensive characterization techniques confirmed the successful formation of the composite,which revealed that ultrathin Sn3O4 nanosheets uniformly coated TiO_(2) nanospheres.This unique architecture effectively reduced the overall crystallinity and introduced the beneficial oxygen vacancies.Under visible-light irradiation(λ≥420 nm),the optimized TiO_(2)/Sn3O4 composite exhibited the exceptional photocatalytic performance,which achieved 96%degradation of MO within just 60 minutes.The calculated apparent kinetic rate constant(0.103 min^(-1))was remarkably(5.15 times)higher than that of pristine TiO_(2).ESR experiments identified that hydroxyl radicals(·OH)was the predominant active species driving the degradation.Furthermore,cyclic degradation tests demonstrated its excellent material stability,with the composite retaining 85%of its initial efficiency after four consecutive reuse cycles.This work underscored the synergistic effects within the TiO_(2)/Sn_(3)O_(4) heterojunction,which significantly enhanced the visible-light absorption,charge separation,and photocatalytic activity,which provided the valuable insights for designing efficient,stable catalysts for the advanced environmental remediation applications.
