文摘Conductive hydrogels have garnered widespread attention as a versatile class of flexible electronics.Despite considerable advancements,current methodologies struggle to reconcile the fundamental trade-off between high conductivity and effective absorption-dominated electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding,as dictated by classical impedance matching theory.This study addresses these limitations by introducing a novel synthesis of aramid nanofiber/MXene-reinforced polyelectrolyte hydrogels.Leveraging the unique properties of polyelectrolytes,this innovative approach enhances ionic conductivity and exploits the hydration effect of hydrophilic polar groups to induce the formation of intermediate water.This critical innovation facilitates polarization relaxation and rearrangement in response to electromagnetic fields,thereby significantly enhancing the EMI shielding effectiveness of hydrogels.The electromagnetic wave attenuation capacity of these hydrogels was thoroughly evaluated across both X-band and terahertz band frequencies,with further investigation into the impact of varying water content states-hydrated,dried,and frozen-on their electromagnetic properties.Moreover,the hydrogels exhibited promising capabilities beyond mere EMI shielding;they also served effectively as strain sensors for monitoring human motions,indicating their potential applicability in wearable electronics.This work provides a new approach to designing multifunctional hydrogels,advancing the integration of flexible,multifunctional materials in modern electronics,with potential applications in both EMI shielding and wearable technology.

文摘Although multifunctional electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials with ultrahigh electromagnetic wave absorption are highly required to solve increasingly serious electromagnetic radiation and pollution and meet multi-scenario applications,EMI shielding materials usually cause a lot of reflection and have a single function.To realize the broadband absorption-dominated EMI shielding via absorption-reflection-reabsorption mechanisms and the interference cancelation effect,multifunctional asymmetric bilayer aerogels are designed by sequential printing of a MXene-graphene oxide(MG)layer with a MG emulsion ink and a conductive MXene layer with a MXene ink and subsequent freeze-drying for generating and solidifying numerous pores in the aerogels.The top MG layer of the asymmetric bilayer aerogel optimizes impedance matching and achieves re-absorption,while the bottom MXene layer enhances the reflection of the incident electromagnetic waves.As a result,the asymmetric bilayer aerogel achieves an average absorption coefficient of 0.95 in the X-band and shows the tunable absorption ability to electromagnetic wave in the ultrawide band from 8.2 to 40 GHz.Finite element simulations substantiate the effectiveness of the asymmetric bilayer aerogel for electromagnetic wave absorption.The multifunctional bilayer aerogels exhibit hydrophobicity,thermal insulation and Joule heating capacities and are efficient in solar-thermal/electric heating,infrared stealth,and clean-up of spilled oil.

文摘With the rapid development of electronic detective techniques,there is an urgent need for broadband(from microwave to infrared)stealth of aerospace equipment.However,achieving effective broadband stealth primarily relies on the composite of multi-layer coatings of different materials,while realizing broadband stealth with a single material remains a significant challenge.Herein,we reported a highly compact MXene film with aligned nanosheets through a continuous centrifugal spraying strategy.The film exhibits an exceptional electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of 45 d B in gigahertz band(8.2-40 GHz)and 59 d B in terahertz band(0.2-1.6 THz)at a thickness of 2.25μm,owing to the high conductivity(1.03×10^(6)S m^(-1)).Moreover,exceptionally high specific shielding effectiveness of 1.545×10^(6)dB cm^(2)g^(-1)has been demonstrated by the film,which is the highest value reported for shielding films.Additionally,the film exhibits an ultra-low infrared emissivity of 0.1 in the wide-range infrared band(2.5-16.0μm),indicating its excellent infrared stealth performance for day-/nighttime outdoor environments.Moreover,the film demonstrates efficient electrothermal performance,including a high saturated temperature(over 120℃ at 1.0 V),a high heating rate(4.4℃s^(-1)at 1.0 V),and a stable and uniform heating distribution.Therefore,this work provides a promising strategy for protecting equipment from multispectral electromagnetic interference and inhibiting infrared detection.

文摘Stretchable conductive fibers are essential for the advancement of wearable electronic textiles.However,a significant challenge arises as their conductivity sharply decreases when stretched due to disruptions in electronic transport.Coating fibers with soft liquid metal(LM)has emerged as a promising solution.Despite this,there remains an urgent need to develop methods that enhance LM adhesion to substrates while facilitating efficient electron transport pathways.This study demonstrates a novel Ag-LM conductive network strategy for fabricating a thermoplastic polyurethane/polydopamine/silver-LM(TPU/PDA/Ag-LM)fiber membrane.This membrane exhibits outstanding stretchable electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding performance and is produced through straightforward electrospinning,electroless depositing,and LM coating and activation.The TPU/PDA/Ag fiber membrane is initially prepared via polydopamineassisted deposition of silver nanoparticles(AgNPs)on electrospun TPU fibers.The presence of AgNPs on the surface of TPU/PDA fibers enhances LM adhesion to the substrate and bridges adjacent LM to establish efficient conductive paths.This interaction benefits from the reactive alloying between AgNPs and LM,where the LM infiltrates the gaps among AgNPs,forming a distinctive LM-Ag alloy layer that uniformly coats the surface of TPU fibers.As anticipated,the unique three-dimensional(3D)interconnected LM-Ag conductive network remains intact during stretching,ensuring strain-invariant conductivity.The fabricated TPU/PDA/Ag-LM fiber membrane demonstrates exceptional EMI shielding effectiveness(SE)of 77.4 dB within the frequency range of 8.2-12.8 GHz and maintains an excellent EMI SE of 37.2 dB under extensive tensile deformation of 300%.Furthermore,the TPU/PDA/Ag-LM fiber membrane shows remarkable mechanical properties and stable Joule heating performance even under significant stretching.

文摘With the rapid development of 5G communication technology and wearable electronic devices,the demand for low-reflection electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials is becoming increasingly urgent.In this work,reduced graphene oxide-MXene(rGMH)@FeNi/epoxy EMI shielding composites with a regular honeycomb structure were successfully prepared by the combination of surface functionalization modification,sacrificial template,and freeze-drying.The effects of magnetic FeNi alloy particle loading mode and loading amount on the EMI shielding performance of composites were investigated.The results show that rGMH@FeNi/epoxy EMI shielding composites have the highest EMI shielding effectiveness(EMI SE)and the lowest reflection shielding effectiveness when magnetic FeNi alloy particles are loaded only on the graphene skeleton.In this composite,the EMI SE value of the composite is 61 dB when the rGMH@FeNi mass fraction is 5.4 wt%(f-FeNi mass fraction is 0.9 wt%),which is 4.7 times that of the blended rGO/MXene/FeNi/epoxy resin composite(13 dB)with the same mass fraction.At the same time,the rGMH@FeNi/epoxy composite has excellent thermal stability(heat-resistance index of 190.3℃)and mechanical properties(energy storage modulus of 8606.7 MPa).These polymer-based EMI shielding composites with excellent EMI shielding properties and low reflection effectiveness have great potential in the protection of high-power,portable and wearable electronic devices against electromagnetic pollution.

文摘The demand of high-performance thin-film-shaped deformable electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding devices is increasing for the next generation of wearable and miniaturized soft electronics.Although highly reflective conductive materials can effectively shield EMI,they prevent deformation of the devices owing to rigidity and generate secondary electromagnetic pollution simultaneously.Herein,soft and stretchable EMI shielding thin film devices with absorption-dominant EMI shielding behavior is presented.The devices consist of liquid metal(LM)layer and LM grid-patterned layer separated by a thin elastomeric film,fabricated by leveraging superior adhesion of aerosol-deposited LM on elastomer.The devices demonstrate high electromagnetic shielding effectiveness(SE)(SE_(T) of up to 75 dB)with low reflectance(SER of 1.5 dB at the resonant frequency)owing to EMI absorption induced by multiple internal reflection generated in the LM grid architectures.Remarkably,the excellent stretchability of the LM-based devices facilitates tunable EMI shielding abilities through grid space adjustment upon strain(resonant frequency shift from 81.3 to 71.3 GHz@33%strain)and is also capable of retaining shielding effectiveness even after multiple strain cycles.This newly explored device presents an advanced paradigm for powerful EMI shielding performance for next-generation smart electronics.

文摘Conductive hydrogels have potential applications in shielding electromagnetic(EM)radiation interference in deformable and wearable electronic devices,but usually suffer from poor environmental stability and stretching-induced shielding performance degradation.Although organohydrogels can improve the environmental stability of materials,their development is at the expense of reducing electrical conductivity and thus weakening EM interference shielding ability.Here,a MXene organohydrogel is prepared which is composed of MXene network for electron conduction,binary solvent channels for ion conduction,and abundant solvent-polymer-MXene interfaces for EM wave scattering.This organohydrogel possesses excellent anti-drying ability,low-temperature tolerance,stretchability,shape adaptability,adhesion and rapid self-healing ability.Two effective strategies have been proposed to solve the problems of current organohydrogel shielding materials.By reasonably controlling the MXene content and the glycerol-water ratio in the gel,MXene organohydrogel can exhibit exceptionally enhanced EM interference shielding performances compared to MXene hydrogel due to the increased physical cross-linking density of the gel.Moreover,MXene organohydrogel shows attractive stretching-enhanced interference effectiveness,caused by the connection and parallel arrangement of MXene nanosheets.This well-designed MXene organohydrogel has potential applications in shielding EM interference in deformable and wearable electronic devices.
