增材制造对缺陷晶格的影响
While additive manufacturing (AM) has enabled fabrication of intricate features necessary for metamaterials and other lattice structures, it may introduce defects when designs approach the resolution limits of a system.This work examined and quantified the effects of geometric deviations that resulted from AM processes.Reentrant auxetic cells were manufactured at a variety of scales (wall thicknesses of 125–1000 µm) using stereolithography (SLA) and powder bed fusion (PBF). Part inspection revealed a range of small-scale geometric defects, including variation of 20–25 % in the wall thickness when fabricating samples with dimensions approaching the minimum feature size of a printer. Agreement with simulations also grew worse with decreasing sizes, but some defects could be incorporated into the simulations to improve alignment with experiment. Based on these results, it is recommended that the impact of fabrication defects be accounted for when features size approaches approximately 3x the characteristic size of the printing process.
虽然增材制造(AM)已经能够制造出超材料和其他晶格结构所需的复杂特征,但当设计接近系统的分辨率极限时,它可能会引入缺陷。这项工作检查和量化了由增材制造过程产生的几何偏差的影响。采用立体光刻(SLA)和粉末床融合(PBF)在各种尺度(壁厚125-1000 µm)上制造可重入的辅助细胞。零件检查显示了一系列小尺寸几何缺陷,包括在制造尺寸接近打印机最小特征尺寸的样品时,壁厚变化20-25 %。随着尺寸的减小,与模拟结果的一致性也越来越差,但可以将一些缺陷纳入模拟中,以提高与实验结果的一致性。基于这些结果,建议在特征尺寸接近印刷过程特征尺寸的大约3倍时考虑制造缺陷的影响。

基于b型DNA的仿生弹性超材料:可编程双螺旋结构用于低频纵波抑制
Motivated by the attractive mechanical properties and the wealth of biological genetic information carried by the DNA structures, we proposed a novel B-form DNA Dual Helix Metamaterial (DHM) in this paper, which has programmable longitudinal wave propagation properties. A dual helix DNA metamaterial is first designed to follow the natural geometry of the B-form DNA structures. To mimic the programming of genetic information in DNA, four types of mass blocks, each made from different materials (i.e., iron, aluminum, nylon, and foam), are selected to serve as the base pairs within the 3D-printed dual helix frame. The elastic wave propagation properties of the DHM, which have unitary mass blocks of different materials, are first compared to comprehend the encoding characteristics of the dual helix metamaterials. After that, a mixed model of DHM, comprising randomly arranged mass blocks, is used to reveal the extensive programmable features for elastic wave propagation. In addition, the influence of the structure parameters, including the helix’s size and the base plates’ thickness, are investigated. Finally, a laser vibrometer system is used to validate the analysis of the proposed elastic metamaterial, experimentally. The investigation in this paper paves the way for broadband low-frequency vibration isolation for engineering applications.
基于DNA结构具有良好的力学性能和丰富的生物遗传信息,本文提出了一种具有可编程纵波传播特性的新型b型DNA双螺旋超材料(DHM)。双螺旋DNA超材料首先被设计为遵循b型DNA结构的自然几何形状。为了模拟DNA中遗传信息的编程,选择了四种类型的质量块,每种块由不同的材料(即铁、铝、尼龙和泡沫)制成,作为3d打印双螺旋框架内的碱基对。首先比较了具有不同材料的统一质量块的双螺旋超材料的弹性波传播特性,以了解双螺旋超材料的编码特性。在此基础上,建立了由随机排列的质量块组成的混合模型,揭示了弹性波传播的广泛可编程特征。此外,还研究了螺旋尺寸和底板厚度等结构参数的影响。最后,利用激光测振仪系统对所提出的弹性超材料进行了实验验证。本文的研究为工程应用的宽带低频隔振奠定了基础。

硅铝酸钡玻璃陶瓷中原位合成Sialon纤维构建的导热网络
Morphology control of thermally conductive phases for high-temperature glass–ceramic matrix composites is crucial to construct conductive pathways. In this work, a novel strategy that enables the simultaneous formation of the main phase and thermally conductive phase is developed. Barium aluminosilicate (BAS) glass–ceramic consisting of internal β-Sialon fibers was sintered densely directly by powders without preformed. By adjusting the carbon source content, composites with different in-situ growth Sialon contents can be easily fabricated. The thermal conductivity of the sample with 7.5 wt% carbon content is improved to 5.714 W/mK at a Sialon volume fraction of 45.12 vol%, which is 112.64 % higher than that of the pure BAS matrix. The efficient thermal pathways are constructed by widely distributed Sialon fibers. The thermal pathways are connected with considerable contact areas to form a three-dimensional thermal conduction network, which significantly increases the thermal conductivity of the composite. This work provides a general and efficient strategy for the fabrication of high-temperature structural composites with high thermal conductivity and superior thermal shock resistance.

具有先进多功能的光/热双响应形状记忆超疏水表面
Intelligent responsive surfaces hold immense potential for cutting-edge technological applications. In this study, we report the fabrication of optically and thermally dual-responsive shape memory superhydrophobic surfaces, achieved through the synergistic integration of 3D printing, magnetron sputtering, and chemical modification techniques.

连续纤维增强聚合物增材制造拓扑优化结构的性能和可制造性协同驱动工艺规划
The advancement of continuous fiber-reinforced polymer additive manufacturing (CFRP-AM) enables the fabrication of intricate geometries. While topology-optimized structures are known for their lightweight and superior properties, these complex forms introduce significant challenges in fiber toolpath design due to irregular geometric variations, particularly where fibers converge and diverge. Moreover, this complexity has been compounded by a separation between structural design and its direct application to manufacturing, leading to inefficiencies in the production process. To address this issue, a strut-joint (S-J) feature fiber toolpath planning method is developed that considers both performance and manufacturability. This method employs a divide-and-conquer strategy by separately optimizing the fiber paths in strut and joint regions to improve overall structural integrity. For topology-optimized structures with intricate geometries, a curl-based feature recognition method has been proposed. This method calculates the curl of the fiber orientation field and leverages the principle where angular variations result in increased curl values to categorize topology-optimized structures into two fundamental features: strut and joint. Subsequently, in strut regions, continuous fiber paths are generated using a field projection method, with the projection period determined by the minimal printable spacing. In joint areas, two specialized sub-optimization problems are introduced—connection and shape design. The connection problem uses integer linear programming to optimize the matching of fiber paths from different struts, while the shape design ensures extensive fiber coverage with no overlap, improving print quality and mechanical performance. This S-J feature approach maximizes fiber alignment with optimized material orientations in strut regions and minimizes performance degradation in joint areas, ensuring the structural integrity and effectiveness of the design. By directly translating the structural design results into continuous toolpaths for manufacturing, this approach bridges the gap between design and manufacturability. Mechanical tests revealed that the Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm (MBB) model fabricated with S-J toolpaths exhibited increases in stiffness of 21.5 % and 25.2 %, in strength of 29 % and 25.8 %, and in fiber infill ratio of 43.1 % and 6.7 %, respectively, when compared to the equally-spaced method (EQS) and Offset methods. Numerical simulation and digital image correlation (DIC) further validated the method, demonstrating a more uniform strain distribution and reduced stress concentrations, leading to enhanced strength. This research advances toolpath planning for topology-optimized structures, highlighting future innovations to improve performance and manufacturability of CFRP structures.
连续纤维增强聚合物增材制造(CFRP-AM)的进步使复杂几何形状的制造成为可能。虽然拓扑优化结构以其轻量化和优越的性能而闻名,但由于不规则的几何变化,特别是在纤维汇聚和发散的地方,这些复杂的形状给光纤刀具轨迹设计带来了重大挑战。此外,结构设计与其直接应用于制造之间的分离加剧了这种复杂性,导致生产过程效率低下。为解决这一问题,提出了一种兼顾性能和可制造性的杆-关节特征光纤刀具轨迹规划方法。该方法采用分而治之的策略,分别优化支柱和节点区域的纤维路径,以提高整体结构的完整性。针对具有复杂几何形状的拓扑优化结构,提出了一种基于卷曲的特征识别方法。该方法计算纤维取向场的旋度,并利用角度变化导致旋度值增加的原理,将拓扑优化结构分为两个基本特征:支柱和关节。随后,在支撑区域,使用场投影法生成连续光纤路径,投影周期由最小可打印间距决定。在节理区域,引入了两个专门的子优化问题——连接和形状设计。连接问题采用整数线性规划优化不同支板纤维路径的匹配,而形状设计保证了广泛的纤维覆盖,无重叠,提高了打印质量和机械性能。这种S-J特征方法通过优化支撑区域的材料方向最大化纤维对齐,并最大限度地减少关节区域的性能下降,确保结构的完整性和设计的有效性。通过直接将结构设计结果转换为连续的制造工具路径,这种方法弥合了设计和可制造性之间的差距。力学试验表明,与等间距法(EQS)和偏置法相比,采用S-J刀具路径制备的messerschmitt - bolkw - blohm (MBB)模型的刚度分别提高21.5 %和25.2 %,强度分别提高29 %和25.8 %,纤维填充率分别提高43.1 %和6.7 %。数值模拟和数字图像相关(DIC)进一步验证了该方法,表明应变分布更加均匀,应力集中降低,从而提高了强度。该研究推进了拓扑优化结构的刀具路径规划,突出了未来的创新,以提高碳纤维增强塑料结构的性能和可制造性。

疲劳载荷作用下复合材料接头的缓慢生长脱粘和分层损伤
This study investigates the slow-growth damage behaviours of bonded CFRP-Al hybrid double-lap joints. Static tensile tests were performed to evaluate the residual strength of partially disbonded or delaminated joints. Fatigue tests were conducted at a practical load level based on static joint strength and safety factor requirements to measure fatigue life and crack growth rates. Finite element models were developed and calibrated using experimental residual strengths and the characteristic distance method and then employed to calculate the residual strengths and energy release rates as functions of crack lengths. The extended finite element method and virtual crack closure technique were both applied. The combination of experimental crack growth rates and numerical energy release rates yielded a modified Paris law, which was used to predict the fatigue life of the double-lap joints with gap region delamination. The fatigue test results revealed slow-growth delamination behaviour within the double-lap joint specimens with pre-embedded gap region delamination cracks. Following observations of crack migration from gap region disbond to first ply delamination, finite element analysis revealed the interaction that arises from disbond-delamination crack migration, with delamination growth remaining dominant and disbond growth significantly reducing. The fatigue life prediction for gap region delamination yielded good agreement with experimental joint fatigue life. This study implemented the previously proposed framework for assessing slow-growth damage behaviours of adhesively bonded composite joints.

inpr连接器:为可展开的能量吸收结构设计的互锁负泊松比连接器
Deployable energy absorption structures are widely utilized in aircraft landing gear, seismic support systems, and transport vessels due to their unique designs that significantly improve energy absorption capacity. However, current studies encounter challenges related to insufficient connection strength and suboptimal energy absorption performance. To address these issues, this paper proposed an interlocking negative Poisson’s ratio connector (INPR-Connector) with expansion capabilities and geometric interlocking functions, aimed at enhancing both connectivity and energy absorption. We developed two types of structures: complete structure filling (CSF) and intermediate part filling (IPF), and experimentally validated the superior connection performance and energy absorption capabilities of unit cell-generated structures under various geometric configurations. Moreover, the proposed connection structure was integrated with a rigid plate to create an expandable, bistable origami structure embedded INPR-Connector. When the load is applied, the hinge can store energy through deformation, converting the applied load into tensile forces within the horizontal flexible hinges. This structure can also recover its original shape after multiple cycles of compression, demonstrating excellent load-bearing capacity. Both numerical simulations and physical experiments confirm the effectiveness and feasibility of the designed connection structure within expandable configurations. The results indicate that this structure not only possesses adjustable energy absorption capabilities but also significantly enhances impact resistance.

自愈砂浆用水泥颗粒的包封
Cracks in cement-based materials are inevitable and compromise the durability of structures. Although unhydrated cement clinkers possess good self-healing capability, its service life is often unsatisfactory. In this study, cement powder was fabricated into dense cement particles using a wet granulation method, followed by encapsulation through the melt dispersion condensation method. The resulting capsules had cement particles as the core and glycerol tristearate-polyurea composites as the shell material. Final capsules exhibited good dispersibility and a clear core-shell structure. The average particle size was 900.5±83.1 μm, with a core content of 56.6 wt%, and the compressive strength was approximately 7.6 MPa. The addition of capsules will affect the performance of the matrix. In self-healing mortars, about 80% of the capsules broke within the cracks. Most importantly, the self-healing mortar after hydration for 28 days was able to completely heal cracks with widths below 100.0 μm, along with fully restoring its impermeability.
水泥基材料的裂缝是不可避免的,会影响结构的耐久性。未水化水泥熟料虽然具有良好的自愈能力,但其使用寿命往往不尽人意。本研究采用湿法制粒法将水泥粉制备成致密的水泥颗粒,然后采用熔融分散冷凝法进行包封。所制得的胶囊以水泥颗粒为核心,甘油三硬脂酸-聚脲复合材料为外壳材料。最终胶囊具有良好的分散性和清晰的核壳结构。平均粒径为9000.5±83.1 μm,芯含量为56.6% wt%,抗压强度约为7.6 MPa。胶囊的加入会影响基体的性能。在自修复迫击炮中,大约80%的胶囊在裂缝中破裂。最重要的是,水化28天后,自愈砂浆能够完全修复宽度小于100.0 μm的裂缝,并完全恢复其抗渗性。

用于高度可靠的两栖人体运动监测的超疏水碳纳米点管/MXene/超纤维耦合纺织品
Superhydrophobic flexible strain sensors exhibit significant potential for detecting human behavior in amphibious environments. However, stable monitoring of amphibious human motion remains a notable challenge, as electronic devices exposed to wet environments, particularly corrosive liquids, can lose their effectiveness due to damage to conductive networks. Herein, we report the design of a superhydrophobic carbon nanodot-tube/MXene/microfiber coupled textile (SCNCT) by dip-coating a 2D conductive adhesive layer, followed by spray-coating a suspension of fluorinated 0D/1D conductive networks onto substrates. Such material retains excellent superhydrophobicity even after mechanical damages and soaking in 0.1 M strong acid/alkali and 3.5 wt.% saline for 3 h. After enduring various tests, including ultrasonic vibrations, continuous solid impacts, extreme thermal conditions, and applications involving multiple limb deformations, the SCNCT still remains capable of stably outputting signals. Importantly, the SCNCT, equipped with a multi-dimensional interlocking structure, reliably monitors the full-range human behaviors across various conditions—wet environments, underwater, and even in simulated seawater. This work offers a simple and practical solution for developing highly reliable strain sensors with a response that is stable in extremely wet environments.
超疏水柔性应变传感器在两栖环境中探测人类行为表现出巨大的潜力。然而,对两栖人类运动的稳定监测仍然是一个显著的挑战,因为电子设备暴露在潮湿的环境中,特别是腐蚀性液体中,由于导电网络的损坏,可能会失去其有效性。在此,我们报道了一种超疏水碳纳米点管/MXene/微纤维耦合纺织品(SCNCT)的设计,方法是先浸涂一层二维导电胶粘剂,然后在基材上喷涂一层含氟的0D/1D导电网络悬浮液。即使在机械损伤和0.1 M强酸/碱和3.5 wt.%盐水中浸泡3小时后,这种材料仍保持出色的超疏水性。在经受各种测试后,包括超声波振动、连续固体撞击、极端热条件和涉及多肢体变形的应用,SCNCT仍然能够稳定地输出信号。重要的是,SCNCT配备了多维联锁结构,可以可靠地监测各种条件下(潮湿环境、水下甚至模拟海水)的全方位人类行为。这项工作为开发高度可靠的应变传感器提供了一种简单实用的解决方案,该传感器在极端潮湿的环境中具有稳定的响应。

球形淀粉基高吸水性聚合物的合成及其对硬化水泥浆体微观结构的影响
The traditional superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are usually irregular particles prepared from petroleum derivatives. Additionally, they often encounter issues such as premature water desorption and inadequate water absorption when applied in cement-based materials. This research synthesized a spherical starch-based superabsorbent polymer (SSSP) with stable water absorption using inverse suspension polymerization, analyzed the influencing factors, adsorption-desorption performance and microstructure of SSSP, and investigated its influence on the cement paste. The results indicate that, the factors affecting the sphericity of SSSP are stirring speed, N2 flow rate, dosage of suspending agent, and the mass ratio of organic phase to aqueous phase in sequence. The water absorption and water storage of starch-based SAP are 2.8 times and 1.4 times higher than those of traditional petroleum-based SAPs. The salt (alkaline) resistance of SSSP is enhanced by grafting stronger hydrophilic -SO3H and non-ionic -CONH2 groups, with the former being more readily grafted onto starch. The dried SSSP particles exhibit a smooth surface with a sphericity of 0.98, forming spherical hydrogels upon water absorption. SSSP mitigates 75% of the autogenous shrinkage of cement paste, with a compressive strength 8.6% lower than the control group, but still higher than that of other SAP pastes. The voids formed by SSSP desorption are mainly spherical, containing hydration products inside, and the pore distribution in its paste tends towards a smaller scale, with a higher proportion of high-density and ultra-high-density C-S-H.
传统的高吸水性聚合物(sap)通常是由石油衍生物制备的不规则颗粒。此外,它们在水泥基材料中应用时经常遇到过早解吸水和吸水不足等问题。采用反相悬浮聚合的方法合成了一种具有稳定吸水性能的球形淀粉基高吸水性聚合物(SSSP),分析了SSSP的影响因素、吸附-解吸性能和微观结构,并考察了其对水泥浆体的影响。结果表明,影响SSSP球形度的因素依次为搅拌速度、N2流量、悬浮剂用量、有机相与水相质量比。淀粉基SAP的吸水性和储水量分别是传统石油基SAP的2.8倍和1.4倍。通过接枝亲水性更强的-SO3H和非离子型-CONH2基团,SSSP的耐盐(碱)性得到增强,前者更容易接枝到淀粉上。干燥后的SSSP颗粒表面光滑,球形度为0.98,吸水后形成球形水凝胶。SSSP可减轻水泥浆体75%的自收缩,抗压强度比对照组低8.6%,但仍高于其他SAP膏体。SSSP解吸形成的孔隙以球形为主,内部含有水化产物,其膏体孔隙分布趋向于较小尺度,高密度和超高高密度C-S-H比例较高。

利用聚合物电刷改善宽温固态锂金属电池的热稳定性和动力学性能
The operation of solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) under wide temperature ranges have been considered as the final stage of commercialization of SSLMBs. However, hard Li-ion transport at low temperatures and inferior interfacial stability at high temperatures remains challenging issues. Herein, to solve both the aforementioned issues, we introduce copolymer brushes (PASLi-PEG) comprised of poly-(lithium 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate onto PE separators into the succinonitrile polymer electrolyte (SNPE). The designed PASLi-PEG brushes facilitate the formation of stable SEI layer, thereby enhancing the high-temperature stability of the resulting batteries. Moreover, the PASLi-PEG brushes offer fast and continuous Li-ion channels to overcome the high Li-ion transfer barrier. As a result, the resulting solid-state Li||LiFePO4 battery exhibits a long cycling life of 1600 cycles at 60 °C and at 5 C. Notably, the Li||LiFePO4 battery delivers high capacities of 124.9 mAh g−1 at −15 °C as well as 108.4 mAh g−1 at −20 °C and at the rate of 0.1 C. This strategy effectively enhances thermal stability and Li-ion transport kinetics at wide temperatures, which can be extended to other solid-state batteries under extreme conditions.
固态锂金属电池(sslmb)在宽温度范围内的运行被认为是sslmb商业化的最后阶段。然而,低温下的硬锂离子输运和高温下较差的界面稳定性仍然是具有挑战性的问题。为了解决上述两个问题,我们将由聚(2-丙烯酰胺-2-甲基丙磺酸锂)和聚(乙二醇)二丙烯酸酯组成的共聚物刷(PASLi-PEG)引入到PE分离器上,进入琥珀腈聚合物电解质(SNPE)。设计的PASLi-PEG电刷有助于形成稳定的SEI层,从而提高所制成电池的高温稳定性。此外,PASLi-PEG电刷提供快速和连续的锂离子通道,以克服高锂离子转移屏障。结果表明,锂||LiFePO4固态电池在60°C和5°C下具有1600次的循环寿命。值得注意的是,锂||LiFePO4电池在- 15°C下具有124.9 mAh g - 1的高容量,在- 20°C和0.1 C的速率下具有108.4 mAh g - 1的高容量。该策略有效地提高了宽温度下的热稳定性和锂离子传输动力学,可扩展到其他固态电池在极端条件下的应用。

稳定自由基交联金属有机骨架介电聚合物:缓解介电劣化的有效方法
The rise of 5G and 6G technologies has heightened the demand for ultra-low dielectric loss thermosetting composites in advanced electronics. A significant challenge is dielectric degradation at elevated temperatures, primarily due to increased molecular polarizability from thermal aging. Traditional stabilization strategies are ineffective because of their incompatibility with free radical cross-linking reactions and their negative impact on dielectric performance. This study incorporates UiO-66, a metal-organic framework, into thermosetting polyphenylene oxide/1,2-polybutadiene systems, yielding composites with enhanced oxidation resistance and dielectric stability without impeding cross-linking. After 14 days of aging at 150 °C, the UiO-66-modified composite exhibited exceptional dielectric stability, with its dielectric loss increasing to only one-sixth compared to the unmodified system. Fourier-transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses indicate that UiO-66 mitigates the oxidation of unreacted double bonds and delays the formation of C-O and C=O groups. These improvements are attributed to UiO-66's exceptional oxygen/ozone adsorption capabilities, along with its free radical quenching abilities, facilitated by its high surface area, porous structure, and abundant open metal sites, confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance and density functional theory analyses. Furthermore, UiO-66 reduces thermal expansion and increases modulus. This study opens a new avenue for designing and developing high-performance electronic materials with customizable structures and properties.
5G和6G技术的兴起提高了先进电子产品对超低介电损耗热固性复合材料的需求。一个重要的挑战是电介质在高温下的降解,主要是由于热老化导致分子极化率增加。传统的稳定策略由于与自由基交联反应不相容以及对介电性能的负面影响而无效。本研究将UiO-66(一种金属有机骨架)加入到热固性聚苯氧化物/1,2-聚丁二烯体系中,得到的复合材料具有增强的抗氧化性和介电稳定性,且不妨碍交联。在150°C下老化14天后,uio -66改性复合材料表现出优异的介电稳定性,其介电损耗仅增加到未改性体系的六分之一。傅里叶变换红外和x射线光电子能谱分析表明,UiO-66减轻了未反应双键的氧化,延缓了C-O和C=O基团的形成。这些改进归功于UiO-66卓越的氧/臭氧吸附能力,以及自由基猝灭能力,这得益于其高表面积、多孔结构和丰富的开放金属位点,这些都得到了电子顺磁共振和密度泛函理论分析的证实。此外,UiO-66降低了热膨胀,增加了模量。这项研究为设计和开发具有可定制结构和性能的高性能电子材料开辟了新的途径。

基于微纳结构的可再生超疏水防污复合硅树脂
The development of silicone-based superhydrophobic coatings is highly desirable for antifouling applications. However, achieving durable coatings remains challenging. Superhydrophobicity is often lost after mechanical damage or microorganism penetration, which compromises the static antifouling ability. Herein, we propose a straightforward strategy for fabricating a silicone coating (F-PIBO-40%) based on a simple condensation reaction between a novel silane telomer (F-PIBO) and α,ω-dihydroxypolydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Moreover, nano-sized silica particles (SiO2) were uniformly incorporated to construct micro-nano rough structures and enhance the durability. The mechanical and environmental durability, self-cleaning, antibacterial and anti-diatom performance were comprehensively characterized. The results revealed that even after 400 damage cycles (8000 cm of wear), the contact angle remained above 165°. The superhydrophobic surface could be simply renewed through friction, minimizing the cost of use and replacement. Furthermore, the coating retained its superhydrophobic properties after exposure to UV radiation, hot/cold temperature cycling, and immersion in various polar and non-polar solvents. The synergistic effects of the isobornyl groups and the superhydrophobicity contributed to the excellent self-cleaning, antibacterial, and anti-diatom performance. We believe that this work provides a new approach for the preparation of multi-environmentally reliable, durable, and surface-renewable superhydrophobic antifouling coatings.
硅基超疏水涂料的发展是防污应用的迫切需要。然而,实现耐用涂层仍然具有挑战性。超疏水性往往在机械损伤或微生物渗透后丧失,从而影响静电防污能力。在此,我们提出了一种基于新型硅烷端粒(F-PIBO)和α,ω-二羟基聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)之间的简单缩合反应制备有机硅涂层(F-PIBO-40%)的简单策略。此外,纳米级二氧化硅颗粒(SiO2)均匀掺入,形成微纳粗糙结构,提高耐久性。对其机械和环境耐久性、自洁性、抗菌性和抗硅藻性进行了全面表征。结果表明,即使经过400次损伤循环(8000 cm磨损),接触角仍保持在165°以上。超疏水表面可以通过摩擦简单地更新,从而最大限度地降低使用和更换的成本。此外,该涂层在暴露于紫外线辐射、热/冷温度循环以及浸泡在各种极性和非极性溶剂中后仍保持其超疏水性。异龙脑基的协同作用和超疏水性使其具有优异的自清洁、抗菌和抗硅藻性能。我们相信这项工作为制备多环境可靠、耐用和表面可再生的超疏水防污涂料提供了新的途径。

并行工程石墨烯集成制备具有三维各向异性导热和导电性的树启发生物复合材料
In nature, numerous bio-materials exhibit anisotropic physical and chemical properties, attributable to their distinctive microstructural characteristics. Inspired by this , artificial composites can be meticulously designed to replicate such anisotropic behavior and attain targeted properties. Here, we successfully constructed wood/graphene bio-composites with parallel-aligned graphene structures by a synergistic process of electrostatic self-assembly and densification using delignified wood as a template. Through the design of parallel-arranged graphene structures, the modulation of phonon and electron transport paths is achieved and differentiated propagation properties are exhibited along different directions. This structural arrangement endows the bio-composites with unique 3D orthogonal anisotropic thermal and electrical conductivity properties. Specifically, the bio-composites integrated with 0.5 wt% graphene demonstrated thermal conductivity of 0.77, 0.25, and 0.12 W/m·K-1 in the x, y, and z directions, respectively, representing a significant enhancement of 2.1 to 11.8 times over that that of natural wood. Concurrently, the electrical conductivity in different directions was markedly improved from 10-12 to 10-4-100 S/cm. Furthermore, the bio-composites showcased superior tensile strength, reaching up to 79.1 MPa, along with notable flame-retardant properties. In Summary, this research provides a pioneering strategy for the preparation of composites with 3D orthogonal anisotropic thermal and electrical properties, a functionality that enables them to be used for thermal management applications such as thermal insulation and heat dissipation.
在自然界中,许多生物材料由于其独特的微观结构特征而表现出各向异性的物理和化学特性。受此启发,人工复合材料可以精心设计以复 制这种各向异性行为并获得目标性能。在这里,我们以去木素化木材为模板,通过静电自组装和致密化的协同过程,成功构建了具有平行排列石墨烯结构的木材/石墨烯生物复合材料。通过设计平行排列的石墨烯结构,实现了声子和电子传输路径的调制,并在不同方向上表现出不同的传播特性。这种结构安排使生物复合材料具有独特的三维正交各向异性导热性能和导电性能。具体来说,含有0.5 wt%石墨烯的生物复合材料在x、y和z方向上的导热系数分别为0.77、0.25和0.12 W/m·K-1,比天然木材的导热系数显著提高2.1至11.8倍。同时,不同方向的电导率从10-12 S/cm显著提高到10-4-100 S/cm。此外,生物复合材料显示出优异的抗拉强度,达到79.1 MPa,并具有显著的阻燃性能。总之,这项研究为制备具有三维正交各向异性热电性能的复合材料提供了一种开创性的策略,这种功能使它们能够用于热管理应用,如隔热和散热。
