Many phosphorus/nitrogen (P/N)-based flame retardants are ef- fective in PLA, but their high addition loading usually decreases the mechanical strength of the PLA bulk. For polyphosphoramides, despite high fire-retardant efficiency, their chemical synthesis often generates chemical wastes as byproducts. Herein, we report an atom-economic and highly efficient oligomeric P/N fire retardant (APN) prepared using a mild Michael addition polymerization with no byproducts. Using only 3 wt% APN, the resulting PLA exhibits desired fire retardancy including a UL-94 V-0 rating and a limiting oxygen index of 37.6%. Furthermore, the toughness of the fire-retardant PLA increases by 85% compared to pure PLA, with both tensile strength and thermal stability preserved. This work offers an atom-economic strategy for synthesizing highly efficient P/N fire retardants for use in the creation of fire-resistant PLA with robust mechanical properties.展开更多

The advanced crystalline structures induced by PTzBI-dFand its characteristics, such as well-aligned energy level, and complementaryabsorption spectra, are ascribed to the promising performance improvements.Our findings suggest that donor phase engineering is a feasible approach to tuning the molecular packings in the active layer, providingguidelines for designing effective morphology modulators for high-performance organic solar cells.

文摘Atomic layer deposition(ALD)has driven significant advancements in photovoltaic technologies by enabling the development of interlayers that improve both the efficiency and stability of devices.This review traces the evolution of ALD interlayers across various photovoltaic technologies,starting with early silicon solar cells and progressing into a variety of thin-film solar cells.We then delve into the role of ALD in state-of-the-art single-junction perovskite solar cells,particularly in optimizing the critical interfaces of perovskites/charge-transporting layers/-electrodes.Apart from that,we screen the functionality of ALD processing,which consists of reducing surface/interfacial defects and thus mitigating energy loss.Particularly,it enables efficient stacking of multiple thin layers,making a variety of tandem solar cells possible(silicon/perovskite,etc.)for higher efficiency.Moreover,the ALDprocessed interlayer prevents the ion migration between metals and perovskites,inhibiting the inter-diffusioninduced degradation of devices.Despite ALD technology extensively elevating the performance of above conventional/emerging solar cells,key challenges such as precursor flammability,cross-contamination during processing,and low deposition pace persist.We go over these challenges and expect our comprehensive overview of ALD techniques could shed light on pushing the envelope of photovoltaic efficiency.
文摘With the goal of constructing a carbon‐free energy cycle,proton‐exchange membrane(PEM)water electrolysis is a promising technology that can be integrated effectively with renewable energy resources to produce high‐purity hydrogen.IrO2,as a commercial electrocatalyst for the anode side of a PEM water electrolyzer,can both overcome the high corrosion conditions and exhibit efficient catalytic performance.However,the high consumption of Ir species cannot meet the sustainable development and economic requirements of this technology.Accordingly,it is necessary to understand the OER catalytic mechanisms for Ir species,further designing new types of low‐iridium catalysts with high activity and stability to replace IrO2.In this review,we first summarize the related catalytic mechanisms of the acidic oxygen evolution reaction(OER),and then provide general methods for measuring the catalytic performance of materials.Second,we present the structural evolution results of crystalline IrO2 and amorphous IrOx using in situ characterization techniques under catalytic conditions to understand the common catalytic characteristics of the materials and the possible factors affecting the structural evolution characteristics.Furthermore,we focus on three types of common low‐iridium catalysts,including heteroatom‐doped IrO2(IrOx)‐based catalysts,perovskite‐type iridium‐based catalysts,and pyrochlore‐type iridium‐based catalysts,and try to correlate the structural features with the intrinsic catalytic performance of materials.Finally,at the end of the review,we present the unresolved problems and challenges in this field in an attempt to develop effective strategies to further balance the catalytic activity and stability of materials under acidic OER catalytic conditions.

文摘High-performance flexible one-dimensional(1D)electrochemical energy storage devices are crucial for the applications of wearable electronics.Although much progress on various 1D energy storage devices has been made,challenges involving fabrication cost,scalability,and efficiency remain.Herein,a highperformance flexible all-fiber zinc-ion battery(ZIB)is fabricated using a low-cost,scalable,and efficient continuous wet-spinning method.Viscous composite inks containing cellulose nanofibers/carbon nanotubes(CNFs/CNTs)binary composite network and either manganese dioxide nanowires(MnO_(2) NWs)or commercial Zn powders are utilized to spinning fiber cathodes and anodes,respectively.MnO_(2) NWs and Zn powders are uniformly dispersed in the interpenetrated CNFs/CNTs fibrous network,leading to homogenous composite inks with an ideal shear-thinning property.The obtained fiber electrodes demonstrate favorable uniformity and flexibility.Benefiting from the well-designed electrodes,the assembled flexible fiber-shaped ZIB delivers a high specific capacity of 281.5 m Ah g^(-1) at 0.25 A g^(-1) and displays excellent cycling stability over 400 cycles.Moreover,the wet-spun fiber-shaped ZIBs achieve ultrahigh gravimetric and volumetric energy densities of 47.3 Wh kg^(-1) and 131.3 m Wh cm^(-3),respectively,based on both cathode and anode and maintain favorable stability even after 4000 bending cycles.This work offers a new concept design of 1D flexible ZIBs that can be potentially incorporated into commercial textiles for wearable and portable electronics.

文摘Renewable and biodegradable polylactide (PLA) has excellent mechanical strength but is highly flammable which restricts its practical applications. Many phosphorus/nitrogen (P/N)-based flame retardants are ef- fective in PLA, but their high addition loading usually decreases the mechanical strength of the PLA bulk. For polyphosphoramides, despite high fire-retardant efficiency, their chemical synthesis often generates chemical wastes as byproducts. Herein, we report an atom-economic and highly efficient oligomeric P/N fire retardant (APN) prepared using a mild Michael addition polymerization with no byproducts. Using only 3 wt% APN, the resulting PLA exhibits desired fire retardancy including a UL-94 V-0 rating and a limiting oxygen index of 37.6%. Furthermore, the toughness of the fire-retardant PLA increases by 85% compared to pure PLA, with both tensile strength and thermal stability preserved. This work offers an atom-economic strategy for synthesizing highly efficient P/N fire retardants for use in the creation of fire-resistant PLA with robust mechanical properties.

文摘Iron chalcogenides have attracted great interest as potential substitutes of nature enzymes in the colorimetric biological sensing due to their unique chemodynamic characteristics.Herein,we report the preparation of ultrathin Fe S nanosheets(NSs)by a simple one-pot hydrothermal method and the prepared Fe S NSs exhibit strong Fenton-reaction activity to catalyze hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))for generation of hydroxyl radical(^(·)OH).Based on the chromogenic reaction of resultant^(·)OH with 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB),we develop colorimetric biosensors for highly sensitive detection of H_(2)O_(2)and glutathione(GSH).The fabricated biosensors show wide linear ranges for the detection of H_(2)O_(2)(5–150μmol/L)and GSH(5–50μmol/L).Their detection limits for H_(2)O_(2)and GSH reach as low as0.19μmol/L and 0.14μmol/L,respectively.The experimental results of sensing intracellular H_(2)O_(2)and GSH demonstrate that this colorimetric method can realize the accurate detection of H_(2)O_(2)and GSH in normal cells(L02 and 3T3)and cancer cells(MCF-7 and He La).Our results have demonstrated that the synthesized Fe S NSs is a promising material to construct colorimetric biosensors for the sensitive detection of H_(2)O_(2)and GSH,holding great promising for medical diagnosis in cancer therapy.

文摘Because of the high cost of cultivating urease-producing bacteria(UPB),this paper proposes soybean-urease-induced carbonate precipitation(SUICP)as a novel biocement for treatment of nickel contaminants and cementation of sandy soil.We found the optimal soaking time and soybean-powder content to be 30 min and 130 g/L,respectively,based on a standard of 5 U of urease activity.The most efficient removal of nickel ions is obtained with an ideal mass ratio of urea to nickel ions to soybean-powder filtrate(SPF)of 1:2.4:20.The removal efficiency of nickel ions can reach 89.42%when treating 1 L of nickel-ion solution(1200 mg/L with the optimal mass ratio).In incinerated bottom ash(IBA),the removal efficiency of nickel ions is 99.33%with the optimal mass ratio.In biocemented sandy soil,the average unconfined compressive strength(UCS)of sand blocks cemented with soybean urease-based biocement can reach 118.89 kPa when the cementation level is 3.Currently,the average content of CaCO_(3)in sand blocks is 2.52%.As a result,the SUICP process can be applied to remove heavy metal ions in wastewater or solid waste and improve the mechanical properties of soft soil foundations.

文摘A series of flexible and self-standing coal-derived carbon fibers(CCFs)were fabricated through electro-spinning coupled with carbonization using bituminous coal and polyacrylonitrile(PAN)as the carbon precursors.These CCFs were utilized as free-standing lithium-ion battery(LIB)anodes.Optimizing car-bonization temperature reveals that the CCFs exhibit a one-dimensional solid linear structure with a uni-form distribution of graphite-like microcrystals.These fibers possess a dense structure and smooth surface,with averaging diameter from approximately 125.0 to 210.0 nm at carbonization temperatures ranging from 600 to 900℃.During electrospinning and carbonization,the aromatic rings enriched in bituminous coal crosslink with PAN chains,forming a robust three-dimensional(3D)framework.This 3D microstructure significantly enhances the flexibility and tensile strength of CCFs,while increasing the graphite-like sp^(2)microcrystalline carbon content,thus improving electrical conductivity.The CCFs carbonized at 700℃demonstrate an optimal balance of sp^(3)amorphous and sp^(2)graphite-like carbons.The average diameter of CCFs-700 is 177 nm and the specific surface area(SSA)is 7.2 m^(2)g^(-1).Additionally,the fibers contain oxygen-containing functional groups,as well as nitrogen-containing func-tional groups,including pyridinic nitrogen and pyrrolic nitrogen.Owing to its characteristics,the CCFs-700 showcases remarkable electrochemical performance,delivering a high reversible capacity of 631.4 mAh g^(-1).CCFs-700 also exhibit outstanding cycle stability,which retains approximately all of their first capacity(400.1 mAh g^(-1))after 120 cycles.This research offers an economical yet scalable approach for producing flexible and self-supporting anodes for LIBs that do not require current collectors,binders and conductive additives,thereby simplifying the electrode fabrication process.

文摘The electro-peroxone technology,a novel type of advanced oxidation technology,is widely used in wastewater treatment.Herein,this paper reviews the advantages and problems of the electro-peroxone technology compared with electrochemical oxidation technology,ozonation technology,and traditional peroxone technology.Due to the high kinetics of pollutant degradation,the electro-peroxone process can reduce the reaction time and energy consumption of pollutant treatment in wastewater.The electroperoxone technology can promote pollutant degradation and mineralization,which shows obvious synergistic effects of electrochemical oxidation and ozonation for wastewater treatment.Most importantly,the research mechanism of the electro-peroxone technology is systematically introduced from two aspects of cathode reaction and bulk reaction.The influence of experimental parameters on the wastewater treatment effect is also discussed.Finally,the potential applications and future research directions of the electro-peroxone technology in the wastewater field are proposed.The electro-peroxone process can offer a highly efficient and energy saving water treatment method to improve the performance of existing ozonation and electrochemical systems and has therefore become a promising electrochemical advanced oxidation process for wastewater treatment.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)have been developed as an ideal platform for exploration of the relationship between intrinsic structure and catalytic activity,but the limited catalytic activity and stability has hampered their practical use in water splitting.Herein,we develop a bond length adjustment strategy for optimizing naphthalene-based MOFs that synthesized by acid etching Co-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid-based MOFs(donated as AE-CoNDA)to serve as efficient catalyst for water splitting.AE-CoNDA exhibits a low overpotential of 260 mV to reach 10 mA cm^(−2)and a small Tafel slope of 62 mV dec^(−1)with excellent stability over 100 h.After integrated AE-CoNDA onto BiVO_(4),photocurrent density of 4.3 mA cm^(−2)is achieved at 1.23 V.Experimental investigations demonstrate that the stretched Co-O bond length was found to optimize the orbitals hybridization of Co 3d and O 2p,which accounts for the fast kinetics and high activity.Theoretical calculations reveal that the stretched Co-O bond length strengthens the adsorption of oxygen-contained intermediates at the Co active sites for highly efficient water splitting.

文摘The trend towards automation and intelligence in aircraft final assembly testing has led to a new demand for autonomous perception of unknown cockpit operation scenes in robotic collaborative airborne system testing.To address this demand,a robotic automated 3D reconstruction cell which enables to autonomously plan the robot end-camera’s trajectory is developed for image acquisition and 3D modeling of the cockpit operation scene.A continuous viewpoint path planning algorithm is proposed that incorporates both 3D reconstruction quality and robot path quality into optimization process.Smoothness metrics for viewpoint position paths and orientation paths are introduced together for the first time in 3D reconstruction.To ensure safe and effective movement,two spatial constraints,Domain of View Admissible Position(DVAP)and Domain of View Admissible Orientation(DVAO),are implemented to account for robot reachability and collision avoidance.By using diffeomorphism mapping,the orientation path is transformed into 3D,consistent with the position path.Both orientation and position paths can be optimized in a unified framework to maximize the gain of reconstruction quality and path smoothness within DVAP and DVAO.The reconstruction cell is capable of automatic data acquisition and fine scene modeling,using the generated robot C-space trajectory.Simulation and physical scene experiments have confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method to achieve highprecision 3D reconstruction while optimizing robot motion quality.
