Electrode materials play important roles in the performance of Supercapacitor (SC). In this study, Zn-based hydrotalcite structure materials are prepared by hydrothermal method.

文摘Owing to the merits of low cost,high safety and environmental benignity,rechargeable aqueous Zn-based batteries(ZBs)have gained tremendous attention in recent years.Nevertheless,the poor reversibility of Zn anodes that originates from dendrite growth,surface passivation and corrosion,severely hinders the further development of ZBs.To tackle these issues,here we report a Janus separator based on a Zn-ion conductive metal-organic framework(MOF)and reduced graphene oxide(rGO),which is able to regulate uniform Zn2+flux and electron conduction simultaneously during battery operation.Facilitated by the MOF/rGO bifunctional interlayers,the Zn anodes demonstrate stable plating/stripping behavior(over 500 h at 1 mA cm^(−2)),high Coulombic efficiency(99.2%at 2 mA cm^(−2) after 100 cycles)and reduced redox barrier.Moreover,it is also found that the Zn corrosion can be effectively retarded through diminishing the potential discrepancy on Zn surface.Such a separator engineering also saliently promotes the overall performance of Zn|MnO2 full cells,which deliver nearly 100%capacity retention after 2000 cycles at 4 A g^(−1) and high power density over 10 kW kg^(−1).This work provides a feasible route to the high-performance Zn anodes for ZBs.

文摘Advanced soft ion-conducting hydrogels have been developed rapidly in the integrated portable health monitoring equipment due to their higher sensitivity,sensory traits,tunable conductivity,and stretchability for physiological activities and personal healthcare detection.However,traditional hydrogel conductors are normally susceptible to large deformation and strong mechanical stress,which leads to inferior electro-mechanical stability for real application scenarios.Herein,a strong ionically conductive hydrogel(poly(vinyl alcohol)-boric acid-glycerol/sodium alginate-calcium chloride/electrolyte ions(PBG/SC/EI))was designed by engineering the covalently and ionically crosslinked networks followed by the salting-out effect to further enhance the mechanical strength and ionic conductivity of the hydrogel.Owing to the collective effects of the energy-dissipation mechanism and salting-out effect,the designed PBG/SC/EI with excellent structural integrity and robustness exhibits exceptional mechanical properties(elongation at break for 559.1%and tensile strength of 869.4 kPa)and high ionic conductivity(1.618 S·m^(-1)).As such,the PBG/SC/EI strain sensor features high sensitivity(gauge factor=2.29),which can effectively monitor various kinds of human motions(joint motions,facial micro-expression,faint respiration,and voice recognition).Meanwhile,the hydrogel-based Zn||MnO_(2)battery delivers a high capacity of 267.2 mAh·g^(-1)and a maximal energy density of 356.8 Wh·kg^(-1)associated with good cycle performance of 71.8%capacity retention after 8000 cycles.Additionally,an integrated bio-monitoring system with the sensor and Zn||MnO_(2)battery can accurately identify diverse physiological activities in a real-time and non-invasive way.This work presents a feasible strategy for designing high-performance conductive hydrogels for highly-reliable integrated bio-monitoring systems with excellent practicability.

文摘Zinc-based degradable metals are considered one of the most promising biodegradable materials due to their moderate corrosion rate,excellent mechanical properties,and good biocompatibility.In this work,biodegradable Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy was fabricated and rolled in multiple passes at different tem peratures.As the hot rolling temperature increases,the grain size of Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy was found to increase cor-respondingly.Further,a multi-scale structure with the coexistence of coarse grains and fine grains was obtained.The results demonstrated that the mechanical strength and corrosion resistance were improved by increasing the rolled temperature.It was observed that Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy with a total reduction of 90%after hot rolling at 325℃ exhibited excellent mechanical and corrosion properties.The cooperation of multi-scale microstructure and twinning was found to improve the strength and guarantee the duc-tility of Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy significantly so that the 325℃ hot-rolled Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy has optimal comprehensive properties.Further,yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,and elongation were found to be 449.7±5.3 MPa,505.1±6.5 MPa,and 40.5%±7.5%,respectively.Meanwhile,Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li al-loy via 325℃ hot-rolled processes also exhibited excellent corrosion resistance.The corrosion current density and corrosion potential were found to be 8.8×10-5 mA cm^(-2)and−0.929 V,respectively.The preliminary study indicates that Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Li alloy is a promising candidate material for medical de-vice applications.

文摘Nowadays,Zinc(Zn)-based biocomposites as biodegradable implant materials have been recognized as a promising approach to overcome the insufficient mechanical performance of Zn matrix and to endow the Zn-based materials with biofunctionality.However,the strengthening effect on Zn-based matrix compos-ite remains far from expectation mainly due to the poor interfacial bonding between the reinforcement and Zn matrix,and the relatively coarse grain size of the Zn matrix.Herein,we have developed a novel in situ wetting strategy to ameliorate the interfacial bonding and mechanical performance of Zn-Ag-based composites using cuprous oxide-modified graphene oxide(Cu_(2)O-GO)sheets as reinforcement.The en-hanced interfacial bonding between GO sheets and Zn matrix owing to the in situ generated ZnO inter-layer and the ultrafine microstructure with an average grain size of 360 nm were simultaneously achieved in the hot extruded(HEed)1 wt%Cu_(2)O-GO/Zn-2 wt%Ag biocomposites.Consequently,HEed biocompos-ites possessed excellent tensile properties,including ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 344.0±2.4 MPa,yield stress(YS)of 314.0±4.8 MPa,and elongation at failure of 15.5%±1.3%.Ultrafine and uniform microstructure of the HEed biocomposites resulted in a relatively uniform corrosion morphology and a degradation rate of 0.195±0.004 mm y^(−1) in simulated body fluid(SBF)solution.The 2-fold diluted extract of the HEed biocomposites exhibited satisfying cytocompatibility with MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblast comparable to that of Ti-6Al-4 V ELI alloys.More importantly,the synergistic effect of metallic ions,Ag-rich nanoparticles,and GO sheets contributed to the remarkable antibacterial activity of the experimental biocomposites against both S.aureus and E.coli.These results demonstrated that the 1Cu_(2)O-GO/Zn-2Ag biocomposites should be anticipated as a promising biodegradable material for orthopedic applications.

文摘Zn-based materials are promising as bone repair materials,but their poor mechanical property and bioactivity as well as low degradation rate render the potential application.Rational structural and material design can address the concerns.In this study,porous Zn-1 wt.%Mg-3 vol.%β-TCP scaffolds with 40%and 60%preset porosities were fabricated via heating-press sintering using NaCl particles as space holders,and their mechanical properties,in vitro degradation behavior,cytotoxicity and in vivo osteogenic activities were evaluated.The results showed that the actual porosities of the scaffolds were 22%and 50%.Mg exists in the form of Zn 2 Mg and Zn 11 Mg 2,whileβ-TCP evenly distributed in the matrix.The compressive yield strength of scaffolds ranges from approximately 58.46 to 71.04 MPa,which is close to that of cancellous bone.The in vitro degradation tests showed that the corrosion rate of the scaffolds was in the range of about 2.73-4.28 mm y^(-1).Moreover,the scaffolds not only provided great space for osteoblasts adhesion and proliferation in vitro but also possessed favorable degradability and osteogenic activity in vivo.The porous Zn-1 wt.%Mg-3 vol.%β-TCP scaffolds manifest reliable mechanical properties,desirable degradability,and osteogenic activity,which are promising as next-generation bone repair materials.

文摘Zn-based electrochemical energy storage(EES)systems have received tremendous attention in recent years,but their zinc anodes are seriously plagued by the issues of zinc dendrite and side reactions(e.g.,corrosion and hydrogen evolution).Herein,we report a novel strategy of employing zincophilic Cu nanowire networks to stabilize zinc anodes from multiple aspects.According to experimental results,COMSOL simulation and density functional theory calculations,the Cu nanowire networks covering on zinc anode surface not only homogenize the surface electric field and Zn^(2+)concentration field,but also inhibit side reactions through their hydrophobic feature.Meanwhile,facets and edge sites of the Cu nanowires,especially the latter ones,are revealed to be highly zincophilic to induce uniform zinc nucleation/deposition.Consequently,the Cu nanowire networks-protected zinc anodes exhibit an ultralong cycle life of over 2800 h and also can continuously operate for hundreds of hours even at very large charge/discharge currents and areal capacities(e.g.,10 mA cm^(-2)and 5 mAh cm^(-2)),remarkably superior to bare zinc anodes and most of currently reported zinc anodes,thereby enabling Zn-based EES devices to possess high capacity,16,000-cycle lifespan and rapid charge/discharge ability.This work provides new thoughts to realize long-life and high-rate zinc anodes.

文摘The microstructures and properties of the Zn-Cu-Bi-Sn(ZCBS) high-temperature solders with various Sn contents were studied using differential scanning calorimetry(DSC),scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).The results indicate that the increase of Sn content can both decrease the melting temperature and melting range of ZCBS solders and it can also effectively improve the wettability on Cu substrate.The shear strength of solder joints reaches a maximum value with the Sn addition of 5%(mass fraction),which is attributed to the formation of refined β-Sn and primary ε-CuZn_5 phases in η-Zn matrix.However,when the content of Sn exceeds 5%,the shear strength decreases due to the formation of coarse β-Sn phase,which is net-shaped presented at the grain boundary.

文摘Environmental degradation has promoted the exploitation of novel energy-storage devices.Electrochemical en-ergy technologies,including supercapacitors and aqueous batteries,are highly desirable for energy storage appli-cations.Among them,aqueous zinc-based batteries(AZBs)are highly valued because of their inherent safety and low cost.One class of emerging materials favorably employed in these devices are organic cathodes,featuring resource renewability,cost-effectiveness,and adjustable electrochemical properties via facile structural modi-fication compared to the conventional inorganic cathodes.To date,various types of organic compounds have been developed and applied to AZBs.This paper comprehensively reviews the mechanisms involved in organic electrode material reactions,highlighting the structural modifications,including morphological,molecular,func-tional group,crystal,and electronic structures,affecting the final device performance.Conclusively,the prospects of practical applications of zinc/organic aqueous battery are delineated.
文摘Supercapacitor is considered as one of the most promising energy storage systems because of its high power density, long life and low production cost. Electrode materials play important roles in the performance of Supercapacitor (SC). In this study, Zn-based hydrotalcite structure materials are prepared by hydrothermal method. The influence of Zn/Al ratio in precursors on electrochemical properties of electrode materials is investigated. The results show that Al(III) promotes the formation of relatively ordered active substances and participates in redox reaction on electrode surface. Specific capacitance of Zn-based electrode reaches 2557 F<span style="white-space:nowrap;">·</span>g<sup>-1</sup> (1.0 A<span style="white-space:nowrap;">·</span>g<sup>-1</sup>) at Zn/Al molar ratio of 1:1 in precursors. This method is simple and environmentally friendly. The electrode exhibits excellent electrochemical activity and stability, showing this material application prospect for supercapacitor.

文摘As a highly promising candidate for hydrogen storage,crucial to vehicles powered by fuel cells,metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)have attracted the attention of chemists in recent decades.H_(2) uptake in an MOF is influenced by many factors such as pore size,ligand functionalization,and open metal sites.The synergistic effect of these factors can significantly enhance the H_(2) uptake in an MOF.Herein,we report a twofold interpenetrated MOF(UPC-501)based on a Zn_(4)O(COO)_(6)secondary building unit with the H_(2) uptake of 14.8 mmol g^(−1)(2.96 wt%)at 77 K and 0.1 MPa.This uptake is the highest among all the reported porous Zn-based MOF materials.Both experimental and theoretical results confirm that the reduced pore size derived from twofold interpenetration and the imidazole-functionalized ligand are responsible for the extremely high H_(2) uptake of UPC-501.

文摘Two Zn-based sorbents, L-991 and L-992 used for hot gas desulfurization (HGD) were introduced. Zn/Ti ratio of the two sorbent was 1:1 and 2:3 resptively and a certain proportion of Cu and Mn metal oxide were added into L-992, which provided better performance than L-991 in aspects of suitable work temperature, sulfur capacity and agglomeration on the surface of sorbent particles. The evaluation tests were done on both sorbents include multi cycles tests. ARD and SEM analysis were done on fresh and post tests sorbent. During continuous sulfidation/regeneration, the H2S concentra- tion can be reduced from about 10 g/m3 to less than 20 mg/m3, the H2S removal effi- ciency >99 %.
