    A Biologically Muscle-Inspired Polyurethane with Super-Tough, Thermal Reparable and Self-Healing Capabilities for Stretchable Electronics

    No full text
    Polymeric elastomers play an increasingly important role in the development of stretchable electronics. A highly demanded elastic matrix is preferred to own not only excellent mechanical properties, but also additional features like high toughness and fast self-healing. Here, a polyurethane (DA-PU) is synthesized with donor and acceptor groups alternately distributed along the main chain to achieve both intra-chain and inter-chain donor-acceptor self-assembly, which endow the polyurethane with toughness, self-healing, and, more interestingly, thermal repair, like human muscle. In detail, DA-PU exhibits an amazing mechanical performance with elongation at break of 1900% and toughness of 175.9 MJ m(-3). Moreover, it shows remarkable anti-fatigue and anti-stress relaxation properties as manifested by cyclic tensile and stress relaxation tests, respectively. Even in case of large strain deformation or long-time stretch, it can almost completely restore to original length by thermal repair at 60 degrees C in 60 s. The self-healing speed of DA-PU is gradually enhanced with the increasing temperature, and can be 1.0-6.15 mu m min(-1) from 60 to 80 degrees C. At last, a stretchable and self-healable capacitive sensor is constructed and evaluated to prove that DA-PU matrix can ensure the stability of electronics even after critical deformation and cut off

    Unprecedented tribological performance of binary Sb/Ag-doped MoS2 coatings fabricated with chemical vapor deposition

    No full text
    This study aims at assessing the tribological performance of novel self-lubricating chemical vapor-deposited MoS2 coatings binary-doped with antimony (Sb) and silver (Ag). The Sb/Ag-doped MoS2 composite coatings showed an excellent solid lubrication performance with low and constant coefficients of friction of about 0.1 for a sliding time of 6 h. Estimations of the underlying wear rates revealed a reduction of the resulting wear rate by two orders of magnitude for the binary-doped Sb/Ag-MoS2 composite coatings (2.43 +/- 0.27 x 10(-7) mm(3)/Nm versus 2.70 +/- 0.44 x 10(-5) mm(3)/Nm for un-doped MoS2 coating), which reflects an outstanding wear resistance

    Probabilistic Latent Factor Model for Collaborative Filtering with Bayesian Inference

    No full text
    Latent Factor Model (LFM) is one of the most successful methods for Collaborative filtering (CF) in the recommendation system, in which both users and items are projected into a joint latent factor space. Base on matrix factorization applied usually in pattern recognition, LFM models user-item interactions as inner products of factor vectors of user and item in that space and can be efficiently solved by least square methods with optimal estimation. However, such optimal estimation methods are prone to overfitting due to the extreme sparsity of user-item interactions. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian treatment for LFM, named Bayesian Latent Factor Model (BLFM). Based on observed user-item interactions, we build a probabilistic factor model in which the regularization is introduced via placing prior constraint on latent factors, and the likelihood function is established over observations and parameters. Then we draw samples of latent factors from the posterior distribution with Variational Inference (VI) to predict expected value. We further make an extension to BLFM, called BLFMBias, incorporating user-dependent and item-dependent biases into the model for enhancing performance. Extensive experiments on the movie rating dataset show the effectiveness of our proposed models by compared with several strong baselines

    Non-Geometric Error Compensation for Long-Stroke Cartesian Robot With Semi-Analytical Beam Deformation and Gaussian Process Regression Model

    No full text
    Till now, most calibration methods only compensate geometric error caused by inaccurate kinematic parameters, while the desired accuracy may still not be achieved when the robot is performing long-stroke, heavy-duty loading and unloading tasks. In this paper, a generalized semi-analytical beam deformation model is firstly proposed for the Cartesian robot to compensate the non-geometric error due to structural deformation under both distributed and concentrated loads. The adjustment factors are introduced in this model to deal with the over-constrained boundary conditions for both intermediate and side modules of the long-stroke Cartesian robot. This improves the fitness of the coming geometric error model, which assumes the beam to be rigid and straight. In addition, as the major error components which do not conform to the Gaussian distribution have been extracted in earlier steps, the Gaussian process regression model is imported to predict the residual error more accurately. In this way, comprehensive geometric and non-geometric error modeling and compensation procedures are formed for the multi-module, long-stroke Cartesian robot. Simulations and real-time experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method

    Construction of Zeolite-Loaded Fluorescent Supramolecular on-off Probes for Corrosion Detection Based on a Cation Exchange Mechanism

    No full text
    Metal engineering structures are commonly covered and protected by coatings. However, the early local corrosion under the coatings and at defects is difficult to detect and discover. Visibility to the naked eye means that corrosion has already developed and expanded. Therefore, it is practical significant to detect the early corrosion of coated metal. Based on the formation of iron ions and anodic acidification in the local corrosion process, iron ions and proton responsive fluorescent rhodamine B acylhydrazone on-off probes are prepared by newly improved methods and denoted as RBA. RBA are loaded on the surface and in the lattice cage of zeolite (ZEO) to protect RBA from premature exposure to the corrosive environment and fluorescence quenching. In corrosive environments, the RBA loaded on the surface are released and complex with iron ions in the environment to activate fluorescence characteristics. Simultaneously, due to the cation exchange of ZEO, iron ions enter the lattice cage of ZEO and combine with RBA in the lattice cage to turn on fluorescence. When applied in epoxy coatings, the RBA/ZEO effectively indicate the occurrence of corrosion under the coatings and at defects, and accurately locate the corrosion site. Nano-scale ZEO (or RBA/ZEO) fill the micropores such as pinholes and defects of the coatings, and increase the difficulty of diffusion and penetration of corrosive media into the coatings. The application of RBA/ZEO functional filler not only do not weaken the main anti-corrosion performance of the coatings, but also significantly improve it

    Titanium alloys, recognized as a marine material with great potential, are currently facing serious biofouling problems, which greatly limits its application range. To improve the antifouling performance of titanium alloys, three unique surface of three-dimensional network, grass-like and linear nanostructures were obtained on titanium alloys via hydrothermal treatment in this work. Further, slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPSs) were fabricated on titanium alloys via infusing PFPE lubricant into these nanostructures. Water contact angles and sliding angles of SLIPSs were measured to evaluate the effect of nanostructures on the stability of PFPE lubricant layer. Anti-fouling capability of SLIPSs were investigated by quantifying the cells of chlorella and phaeodactylum tricornutum (P. tricornutum)adhered to titanium alloys. The results shows that all the SLIPSs exhibited remarkable inhibition capacity for the settlement of chlorella and P. tricornutum. Among them, the SLIPS with three-dimensional network nanostructure displayed the longest-term anti-fouling performance, and its reduction rate of P. tricornutum and chlorella reaching 77.2 % and 84.5 % after being cultivated for 21 days, respectively, indicating that there existed a positive correlation between the stability of lubricant layer in the artificial seawater and the antifouling effect

    Our body is a multiple perception learning system. Bionic application of perception cognitive functions based on neuromorphic electronics would endow artificial intelligence new intension. In particular, electrolyte-gated transistors have been suggested for neuromorphic platform applications. Due to the fundamental limitations for ionic liquid and ionic gel-based electrolyte, it would be interesting to obtain solid-state electrolytes through a vacuum free system. Thus, in the present work, a simple aqueous solution-processed mesoporous silica coating-gated oxide photo-perception neuromorphic transistors have been proposed. The neuromorphic transistors exhibit good electrical performances. A resistor-loaded inverter is built, exhibiting typical inverter operation at low working voltage. 'Selective potentiation and depression' behaviors have been mimicked on the neuromorphic transistor. In addition, the proposed neuromorphic transistor shows optical and electrical synergic response behaviors. Neurological behavior of conditioned taste aversion learning has been mimicked. Thus, the single photo-perception neuromorphic transistor could integrate the functions of perception and neuromorphic algorithm. The proposed photo-perception neuromorphic transistors could have potentials in artificial perception learning systems
