Maintaining durable adhesion between soft tissues and relatively hard implant materials is one of the most elusive technological difficulties in bionic devices due to contact damage between mechanically mismatched materials. Although there are many examples of coexistence of soft and hard tissues in living organisms, relatively little is known abou...
Flexible sensors with a high sensitivity and wide-frequency response are essential for structural health monitoring (SHM) while they are attached. Here, carbon nanotube (CNT) films doped with various PVA fractions (CNT/PVA) and ZnO nanowires (nano-ZnO) on zinc sheets were first fabricated by functionalized self-assembly and hydrothermal synthesis p...

Flexible reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets are being considered for applications in portable electrical devices and flexible energy storage systems. However, the poor mechanical properties and electrical conductivities of rGO sheets are limiting factors for the development of such devices. Here we use MXene (M) nanosheets to functionalize graphen...

Figuring out the wetting behavior and interfacial structure of ionic liquid (IL) droplets on solid surfaces is imperative for the new IL-based application in the field of chemical engineering. In this work, the quantitative relations between the wetting properties and solid surface property are explored through molecular dynamics simulations. Inter...

Present-day all-vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) generally require high purity vanadium oxide as a raw ingredient. The chlorination procedure presents distinct technical advantages with regard to preparing high purity vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) using vanadium oxytrichloride (VOCl3) as a highly pure intermediate. To efficiently prepare high puri...

The conductive polymer complex poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) is the most explored conductive polymer for conductive textiles applications. Since PEDOT:PSS is readily available in water dispersion form, it is convenient for roll-to-roll processing which is compatible with the current textile processing applicat...
