Flexible TaC/C electrospun non-woven fabrics with multiple spatial-scale conductive frameworks for efficient electromagnetic interference shielding
No full textEfficient, flexible, thin, and easy processing electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance materials attract attention to prevent increasingly electromagnetic pollution. Herein, we fabricated multiple spatial-scale conductive frameworks containing tantalum carbide (TaC) nanoparticles by electrospinning and high-temperature pyrolysis. The electrospun composite fabrics possess outstanding properties such as an excellent tensile strength of 9.5 MPa and excellent flexibility. Furthermore, the TaC nanoparticles with appropriate concentration can interconnect with each other endowing the composite fabrics with high electrical conductivity of 10.4 S cm(-1). It also has great EMI SE of up to 37.7 dB in X band with only 0.2 mm thickness, and the SSE/t values of 4290.1 dB cm(2) g(-1). Owing to its pore structure, the shielding mechanism is mainly based on reflection and the finite element simulation further visually confirmed the excellent shielding capabilities. This novel electrospun composite fabrics have a great potential to be applied in fields of aerospace, and electronic devices
Electrochemical Lithium Storage Performance of Molten Salt Derived V2SnC MAX Phase
No full textMAX phases are gaining attention as precursors of two-dimensional MXenes that are intensively pursued in applications for electrochemical energy storage. Here, we report the preparation of V2SnC MAX phase by the molten salt method. V2SnC is investigated as a lithium storage anode, showing a high gravimetric capacity of 490 mAh g(-1) and volumetric capacity of 570 mAh cm(-3) as well as superior rate performance of 95 mAh g(-1) (110 mAh cm(-3)) at 50 C, surpassing the ever-reported performance of MAX phase anodes. Supported by operando X-ray diffraction and density functional theory, a charge storage mechanism with dual redox reaction is proposed with a Sn-Li (de)alloying reaction that occurs at the edge sites of V2SnC particles where Sn atoms are exposed to the electrolyte followed by a redox reaction that occurs at V2C layers with Li. This study offers promise of using MAX phases with M-site and A-site elements that are redox active as high-rate lithium storage materials
Superhydrophobic and smart MgAl-LDH anti-corrosion coating on AZ31 Mg surface
No full textLayered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely used as smart containers in the field of metal corrosion protection, and have broad industrial prospects. It is environmentally friendly and feasible to use aliphatic carboxylates and corresponding acids as substitutes for harmful corrosion inhibitors. However, previous studies rarely involved comparing the anti-corrosion mechanisms of different aliphatic acids modified on the LDH surface, and the durability of the prepared coatings also needs to be improved. In this work, MgAl-LDH laminates were grown in situ on AZ31 substrates by a hydrothermal method, and then modified by sodium laurate (SL) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). Due to the physical barrier effect of the LDH layers, the spatial repulsion effect of the air film and the ion exchange reactions in the interlayer galleries, the functional coatings prepared exhibit smart and superior anticorrosion performance on the magnesium substrates in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Compared with LDHSDBS-8 coating, the obtained superhydrophobic LDH-SL-8 coating shows more excellent long-term corrosion protection owing to the stronger intercalation capacity.
