Hydrogen Absorption Performance and O₂ Poisoning Resistance of Pd/ZrCo Composite Film.

ABSTRACT: In order to enhance the hydrogen absorption performance and poisoning resistance of ZrCo to O₂, Pd/ZrCo composite films were prepared by direct current magnetron sputtering. The results show that the initial hydrogen absorption rate of the Pd/ZrCo composite film increased significantly due to the catalytic effect of Pd compared with the ZrCo film. In addition, the hydrogen absorption properties of Pd/ZrCo and ZrCo were tested in poisoned hydrogen mixed with 1000 ppm O₂ at 10-300 °C, where the Pd/ZrCo films maintained a better resistance to O₂ poisoning below 100 °C. The mechanism of poisoning was investigated jointly by first-principles calculation combined with SEM-EDS elemental mapping tests. It is shown that the poisoned Pd layer maintained the ability to promote the decomposition of H₂ into hydrogen atoms and their rapid transfer to ZrCo.

Additively Manufactured Silicone Polymer Composite with High Hydrogen Getter Content and Hydrogen Absorption Capacity.

Project description:Hydrogen getters consisting of 1,4-bis[phenylethynyl] benzene (DEB) and a carbon-supported palladium catalyst (Pd/C) have been used to mitigate the accumulation of unwanted hydrogen gas in a sealed system. Here, we report the formulation of a composite resin consisting of silicone polymer plus DEB-Pd/C as an active getter material and the additive manufacturing of silicone getter composites with a high getter content (up to 50 wt %). NMR and DSC studies suggest no reaction between the silicone polymer resin and DEB even at elevated curing temperatures (75 °C). Getter composites with varying amounts of getter and filler were formulated, and their rheological properties were studied. The two composite resins with good printability parameters and different getter contents were chosen to make 3D-printed samples. The hydrogen absorption capacity of these samples was studied at a low hydrogen pressure of 750 mTorr of pure hydrogen. The getter composite with 50 wt% of getter showed normalized DEB conversion of 83%, with the hydrogen adsorption capacity of 100.2 mL of H2 per gram of polymer getter composite.

C/Co3O4/Diatomite Composite for Microwave Absorption.

Project description:Transition metal oxides have been widely used in microwave-absorbing materials, but how to improve impedance matching is still an urgent problem. Therefore, we introduced urea as a polymer carbon source into a three-dimensional porous structure modified by Co3O4 nanoparticles and explored the influence of different heat treatment temperatures on the wave absorption properties of the composite. The nanomaterials, when calcined at a temperature of 450 °C, exhibited excellent microwave absorption capabilities. Specifically, at an optimized thickness of 9 mm, they achieved a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of -97.3 dB, accompanied by an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 9.83 GHz that comprehensively covered both the S and Ku frequency bands. On the other hand, with a thickness of 3 mm, the RLmin was recorded as -17.9 dB, with an EAB of 5.53 GHz. This excellent performance is attributed to the multi-facial polarization and multiple reflections induced by the magnetic loss capability of Co3O4 nanoparticles, the electrical conductivity of C, and the unique three-dimensional structure of diatomite. For the future development of bio-based microwave absorption, this work provides a methodology and strategy.

A computational study of a chemical gas sensor utilizing Pd-rGO composite on SnO2 thin film for the detection of NOx.

Project description:In this paper we discussed, nitrogen oxides gas sensors are designed and simulated using the MEMS-based tool of COMSOL Multiphysics software. Pd-rGO composite films were designed and their NOx sensing characteristics were investigated in this study by comparing with/without active layers. Transition metal SnO2 deals with four different active materials i.e., Pure SnO2, SnO2-Pd, SnO2-rGO, and SnO2-Pd/rGO film was controlled by altering the active materials during the active layer deposition. The deposition of Pd/rGO active material is integrated into the SnO2 thin film. The response of the nanocomposite materials on the NOx gas sensor at a low temperature below 100 °C was significantly improved. Moreover, we investigate the optimization from different active layer response for NOx by applying power in watt and milliwatt to the interdigitated electrode on the Sn substrate. The determination is tense to finalize the suitable materials that to detect more response for nitrogen oxides i.e., Pd/rGO layer shows better performance when compared with other active layers for the sensing of nitrogen oxides is in proportion to the power in the range of 0.6-4.8 W at (1-8) Voltage range. This advanced research will enable a new class of portable NOx gas sensors to be constructed with millimeter size and microwatt power.

Preparation and microwave absorption performance of a flexible Fe3O4/nanocarbon hybrid buckypaper and its application in composite materials.

Project description:Graphene oxide (GO) and carbon nanotubes are promising microwave-absorbing materials. Herein, ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4)/multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and Fe3O4/GO hybrid buckypapers with excellent flexibility and manoeuvrability were coated on the surface of an epoxy substrate to fabricate microwave-absorbing composites. Fe3O4/GO buckypapers show a unique layered structure that differs from the complex network structure of Fe3O4/MWCNT buckypapers. Therefore, the Fe3O4/GO buckypapers exhibit lower tensile strength and toughness than the Fe3O4/MWCNT buckypapers, and the minimum electromagnetic reflection loss of Fe3O4/GO buckypapers is higher than that of Fe3O4/MWCNT buckypapers. Further, Fe3O4/GO buckypapers have a wider effective absorption-frequency band than Fe3O4/MWCNT buckypapers at 2.0-18.0 GHz. Although the mechanical properties of epoxy resin composites coated with Fe3O4/MWCNT or Fe3O4/GO buckypapers show a slight deterioration in comparison with those of the epoxy resin substrate, both buckypapers exhibit improved microwave-absorption performance compared with the epoxy resin substrate.

Study on room temperature gas-sensing performance of CuO film-decorated ordered porous ZnO composite by In2O3 sensitization.

Project description:For the first time, ordered mesoporous ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized by a template method. The electroplating after chemical plating method was creatively used to form copper film on the surface of the prepared ZnO, and then a CuO film-decorated ordered porous ZnO composite (CuO/ZnO) was obtained by a high-temperature oxidation method. In2O3 was loaded into the prepared CuO film-ZnO by an ultrasonic-assisted method to sensitize the room temperature gas-sensing performance of the prepared CuO/ZnO materials. The doped In2O3 could effectively improve the gas-sensing properties of the prepared materials to nitrogen oxides (NO x ) at room temperature. The 1% In2O3 doped CuO/ZnO sample (1 wt% In2O3-CuO/ZnO) showed the best gas-sensing properties whose response to 100 ppm NO x reached 82%, and the detectable minimum concentration reached 1 ppm at room temperature. The prepared materials had a good selectivity, better response, very low detection limit, and high sensitivity to NO x gas at room temperature, which would have a great development space in the gas sensor field and a great research value.

Simultaneous ultraviolet and first near-infrared window absorption of luminescent carbon dots/PVA composite film.

Project description:Liquid Carbon Dots (CDs) were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method using urea and citric acid as raw materials. TEM images confirmed that the CDs have a spherical shape with a homogeneous distribution. The as-prepared liquid CDs could absorb ultraviolet (UV) and first near infra-red (NIR) window simultaneously. However, the photoluminescence (PL) of the liquid CDs was damaged by their quenching effect. To overcome this issue, the liquid CDs were dispersed in poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA) to fabricate the composite film. Herein, the dual-peak absorption properties of the CDs/PVA composite films were investigated for the first time. The composite films could maintain the simultaneous UV and first NIR window absorption property even after being preheated up to 200 °C, implying that the structure of CDs was well retained during the transition from the liquid to films. Daylight treatment for seven days produced minimum changes in the UV-vis and PL spectra, which indicates that the CDs/PVA film has more stable optical properties than the liquid CDs.

Tuning the Dielectric Constant and Surface Engineering of a BaTiO3/Porous PDMS Composite Film for Enhanced Triboelectric Nanogenerator Output Performance.

Project description:In this work, synergistic effects derived from surface engineering and dielectric property tuning were exploited to enhance the output performance of a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) based on an inorganic/porous PDMS composite in a contact-separation mode. BaTiO3 (BT)/porous PDMS films with different BT weight ratios were fabricated and evaluated for triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) application. Maximum output signals of ca. 2500 V, 150 μA, and a power density of 1.2 W m-2 are achieved from the TENG containing 7 wt % BT, which is the best compromise in terms of surface roughness, dielectric constant, and surface contact area as evidenced by SEM and AFM studies. These electrical signals are 2 times higher than those observed for the TENG without BT. The 7BT/porous PDMS-based TENG also shows high stability without a significant loss of output voltage for at least 24 000 cycles. With this optimized TENG, more than 350 LEDs are lit up and a wireless transmitter is operated within 9 s. This work not only shows the promoting effects from porous surfaces and an optimized dielectric constant but also offers a rapid and template/waste-free fabrication process for porous PDMS composite films toward large-scale production.

High Thermoelectric Performance in Ti3C2Tx MXene/Sb2Te3 Composite Film for Highly Flexible Thermoelectric Devices.

Project description:Flexible thin-film thermoelectric devices (TEDs) can generate electricity from the heat emitted by the human body, which holds great promise for use in energy supply and biomonitoring technologies. The p-type Sb2Te3 hexagon nanosheets are prepared by the hydrothermal synthesis method and compounded with Ti3C2Tx to make composite films, and the results show that the Ti3C2Tx content has a significant impact on the thermoelectric properties of the composite films. When the Ti3C2Tx content is 2 wt%, the power factor of the composite film reaches ≈59 µW m-1 K-2. Due to the outstanding electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, and excellent flexibility of Ti3C2Tx, the composite films also exhibit excellent thermoelectric and mechanical properties. Moreover, the small addition of Ti3C2Tx has a negligible effect on the phase composition of Sb2Te3 films. The TED consists of seven legs with an output voltage of 45 mV at ΔT = 30 K. The potential of highly flexible thin film TEDs for wearable energy collecting and sensing is great.

Alternate-Layered MXene Composite Film-Based Triboelectric Nanogenerator with Enhanced Electrical Performance.

Project description:The output power of the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) strongly depends on the performance of triboelectric materials, especially microstructures and functional groups of them. In this work, aiming at the excellent triboelectric ability, alternate-layered MXene composite films-based TENG with abundant fluorine groups(-F) through layer-by-layer stacking are designed and fabricated. Benefitting from the uniform intrinsic microstructure and increased dielectric constant, when the amount of the Nb2CTx nanosheets increases to 15 wt%, the TENG based on Nb2CTx/Ti3C2Tx composite nanosheets films achieves the maximum output. The short-circuit current density of 8.06 μA/cm2 and voltage of 34.63 V are 8.4 times and 3.5 times over that of pure Ti3C2Tx films, and 3.3 times and 4.3 times over that of commercial poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) films, respectively. Furthermore, the fabricated TENG could be attached to human body to harvest energy from human motions, such as typing, texting, and hand clapping. The results demonstrate that the alternate-layered MXene composite nanosheet films through layer-by-layer stacking possess remarkably triboelectric performance, which broaden the choice of negative triboelectric materials and supply a new choice for high output TENG.
