The effects of pH on swelling ratio (SR) of the pure crosslinked PDMAEMA membrane and on separation performances of the composite NF membrane were investigated. The results show that the quaternized amino groups produced through interfacial polymerization technique are soluble in both phases, which accelerate the crosslinking reaction as self-catalysts. The swelling/contracting behavior of the pure crosslinked PDMAEMA exhibited a well reversible pH sensitive property. Importantly, the rejection and flux of the composite NF membrane show pH-sensitive behavior in NF process. Furthermore, with the help of a relatively novel method to measure membrane conduction, the true zeta potentials calculated on the basis of the streaming potential measurements proved the pH-sensitive behavior of the NF membrane.展开更多

Besides, the inherent soft nature of hydrogel material offers the electrode superior flexibility,which benefits to gain high flexibility for devices. Here, this perspective briefly introduces the current research progress in the field of conducting polymer hydrogel electrodes-based flexible solid-state supercapacitor and gives an outlook on the future trend of research.展开更多

The past 5 years have witnessed rapid advances in both 4D printing processes and materials. Unlike 3D printing, 4D printing allows the printed part to change its shape and function with time in response to change in external conditions such as temperature, light, electricity, and water. In this review, we first overview the history of 4D printing and discuss its definition. We then summarize recent technological advances in 4D printing with focuses on methods, materials, and their intrinsic links. Finally, we discuss potential applications and offer perspectives for this exciting new field.展开更多
