Published: January 2022

AbstractA kind of pollution known as electromagnetic interference (EMI), which results from ubiquitous usage of various electronic communication and military radar equipment, has received increasing attention recently. However, it is still a big challenge to obtain good EMI shielding in transparent and/or curved surfaces. In this paper, a light, ultrathin, transparent, and flexible EMI shielding film based on woven silver nanowire (Ag‐NW) 3D networks is successfully prepared via a room‐temperature template production method. For transparent application scenario, Ag‐NWs with 91% transmittance in visible range show ≈27 dB shielding efficiency. This sample shows ≈27 dB shielding efficiency, although with a low density of Ag‐NWs (≈0.0168 mg cm−2), which implies that this material has a cost‐effectiveness. Moreover, total shielding as high as ≈40 dB is obtained by using thickened Ag‐NW grids. The EMI has not changed remarkedly after bended 1200 times, which indicates the as‐prepared flexible film has a relative stability of the EMI performance. Considering the facile production technology, this material can be readily applied in transparent EMI shielding.

Authors: Klein Jana , Alt Kristian , Waldvogel Siegfried R. 
Published: January 2022

AbstractThis work represents a new method that uses electrochemically generated periodate to oxidize side‐stream lignins. Using periodate, a lignin‐derived product other than vanillin becomes accessible. The development of an eco‐friendly method for generating 5‐iodovanillin from lignin is reported and is of significant interest for the wood‐based industry. Wider utilization of lignin can substitute fossil‐based chemicals and fuels, reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, and facilitate the dependence on fossil energy. The reaction conditions are easy to conduct, the lignin is modified, and no specific setup is required. This one‐pot cost‐efficient method does not use toxic or harmful metals and yields more than 15 wt% 5‐iodovanillin. 5‐Iodovanillin represents an advanced building block for the synthesis of complex molecules, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients.

AbstractThe development of new storage media to meet the demands for diverse information storage scenarios is a great challenge. Here, a series of lanthanide‐based luminescent organogels with ultrastrong mechanical performance and outstanding plasticity are developed for patterned information storage and encryption applications. The organogels possessing outstanding mechanical properties and tunable luminescent colors are prepared by electrostatic and coordinative interactions between natural DNA, synthetic ligands, and rare earth (RE) ions. The organogel‐REs can be stretched by 180 times and show an ultrastrong breaking strength of 80 MPa. A series of applications with both information storage and encryption, such as self‐information pattern, quick response (QR) code, and barcode, are successfully demonstrated by the organogel‐REs. The developed information storage systems have various advantages of good processability, high stretchability, excellent stability, and versatile design of information patterns. Therefore, the organogel‐RE‐based information storage systems are suitable for applications under different scenarios, such as flexible devices under repeating rude operations. The advancements will enable the design and development of luminescent organogel‐REs as information storage and encryption media for various scenarios.

AbstractLithiophilic sites with high binding energy to Li have shown the capability to guide uniform Li deposition, however, the irreversible reaction between Li and lithiophilic sites causes a loss of lithiophilicity. Herein, the concept of using reversible lithiophilic sites, such as single‐atoms (SAs) doped graphene, as a host, is systematically inspected in the context of Li metal battery (LMB) performance. Here, it is proposed that the binding energy to Li atoms should be within a certain threshold range, i.e., strong enough to inhibit Li dendrite growth and weak enough to avoid host structure collapse. Six kinds of SAs are utilized; doped 3D graphene, nitrogen‐doped 3D graphene, and pure 3D graphene, whose performance in LMBs are compared with each other. It is discovered that the SA‐Mn doped 3D graphene (SAMn@NG) has the most reversible lithiophilic site, in which adsorption strength with Li is suitable to guide uniform deposition and keep the structure stable. During Li plating/stripping, the changes of the atomic structures in SAMn@NG, such as change of bond length and bond angle around Mn atoms are much smaller than those on SAZr@NG, although its binding energy is higher, enabling a much‐improved battery performance in SAMn@NG. This work provides a new insight to design lithiophilic sites in LMBs.

Published: January 2022

AbstractVery few studies have been reported on the fundamental mechanism analysis the augmentation of heat and mass transfer for the convection and condensation processes in the slit finned tube heat exchanger under dehumidifying conditions. By developing a 3D numerical model for the condensation of the slit finned tube heat exchanger under dehumidifying conditions, the heat and mass transfer characteristics were investigated under different the geometrical and operational parameters. The models neglecting convective mass flux or neglecting the water vapor loss can greatly enlarge the deviations of numerical results with respect to experimental data. The synergy angles are smaller in the windward and leeward sides of slits where the velocity field has a better synergy with both temperature field and the mass field. The slits on the fin not only increase the disturbance of fluid but continuously destroy the developments of thermal and mass concentration boundary layers, greatly enhancing the heat and mass transfer. The latent heat transfer is significantly greater than the sensible heat transfer, which accounts for 71.7% of the total heat transfer rate when inlet velocity is 1 m·s−1and volume fraction of water vapor is 15%. The increases in the inlet velocity, and the volume fraction of water vapor can enhance the heat and mass transfer coefficient of wet flue gas. Whereas, the increase in inlet velocity can reduce the difference of synergy for the velocity field and the temperature or mass concentration gradient field of different fin tubes.

AbstractA series of self‐healing waterborne polyurethane (WPU) films utilizing reversible covalent bond acylhydrazones diol (PA) as chain extender were successfully synthesized. The self‐healing performance of WPU with different content of chain extender PA has been systemically characterized via cut‐and‐healing tests and mechanical quantitative evaluation. The film can repair cracks through acylhydrazone exchange reactions within 12 h. When the content of PA is 1.5 wt%, the WPU has the highest self‐healing efficiency of 90.5%. Meanwhile, the effect of PA mass fraction on the particle size distribution, mechanical ability, crystallization, water resistance properties, and thermal stability of WPU were evaluated. With the introduction of acylhydrazone bonds, the hydrophobicity of the WPU material was enhanced, while achieving self‐healing performance, which solves the problem of aging and replacement of materials. These results indicated that the self‐healing WPU exhibited great application prospect as a versatile material.

Published: January 2022

AbstractCommercial polyolefin separator cannot guarantee the safety of lithium‐ion batteries at high temperatures due to their poor thermal stability. All kinds of nanofiber membranes with high thermal stability become the focus. In this paper, we have prepared PVDF nanofiber membrane by electrospinning method and have studied the relationship between the electrochemical performance and nanofiber morphology in detail. It is found that the morphology of PVDF is transformed from ball‐like to various nanofiber with increasing the concentration of spinning solution. As a result, the PVDF nanofiber membrane (24 wt%‐HP) prepared from spinning solution with the concentration of 24 wt% is composed of coarse nanofiber and fine nanofiber, which exhibits better electrochemical properties, such as cycling stability (300 cycles) and ionic conductivity (1.65 mS cm−1). LiCoO2/Li cells based on PVDF nanofiber separators have higher discharge capacity even at the current density of 5 C‐rate, superior than the cells based on PE separator. It is inspiring for high‐energy‐density battery safety to use this PVDF nanofiber separator.

AbstractIn the world of complex smells in natural environment, feeding and mating represent two important olfactory‐guided behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster (Diptera: Drosophilidae). Diet affects the chemoprofile composition of the individuals, which, indirectly, may significantly affect their mating success. In this study, chemoprofiles of recently mated flies belonging to four D. melanogaster strains, which were fed for many generations on different substrates (standard cornmeal—S strain; banana—B strain; carrot—C strain; tomato—T strain) were identified and quantified. In total, 67 chemical compounds were identified: 48 compounds were extracted from males maintained on banana and carrot, and 47 compounds from males maintained on cornmeal and tomato substrates, while total of 60 compounds were identified in females from all strains. The strains and the sexes significantly differed in qualitative nature of their chemoprofiles after mating. Significant differences in the relative amount of three major male pheromones (cis‐vaccenyl acetate—cVA, (Z)‐7‐pentacosene, and (Z)‐7‐tricosene) and in female pheromone (Z,Z)‐7,11‐nonacosadiene among strains were also recorded. Furthermore, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) pointed to significant differences between virgin and mated individuals of all strains and within both sexes. Differences in some of the well known sex pheromones were also identified when comparing their relative amount before and after mating. The presence of typical male pheromones in females, and vice versa may indicate their bidirectional transfer during copulation. Our results confirm significant effect of mating status on cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) phenotypes in differently fed D. melanogaster flies.
