Covalent Attachment of Quaternary Ammonium Group to Geopolymer Surface With Silane Coupling Agent to Enable Simultaneous Adsorption of Cations and Anions

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Modification of geopolymer surface with a silane coupling agent containing quaternary ammonium group enables the development of dual‐functioning ion exchanger for both cations and anions. In the present study, the performance of this material was demonstrated for the uptake of ammonium and nitrate from water.

Testing and Simulation of Multilayer Polyvinylidene Fluoride‐Based Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Devices

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The study considers the use of polymer/dielectric‐based multilayers piezoelectric Energy Harvesters (EH) to produce an output voltage and current, by exploiting the mechanical energy provided by human organs movements. In particular, the heart motion is considered from the kinematic viewpoint, and a multiphysics theoretical model is developed to assess

Physical Origin of Temperature Induced Activation Energy Switching in Electrically Conductive Cement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The temperature‐induced Arrhenius activation energy switching phenomenon of electrical conduction in electrically conductive cement originates from structural degradation within the biphasic ionic‐electronic conduction architecture and shows percolation‐governed characteristics: pore network opening dominates the low‐percolation regime with downward ...

FUNDAMENTAL MODELS OF STRUCTURAL STABILITY

Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2017
In this paper, basic structural stability phenomena are described. After some general comments about stability in the field of civil engineering, four elementary sources of nonlinearity are mentioned: of equilibrium equations, strain (geometry) relations,

Reconfigurable Inflatables Through Controlled Surface Crumpling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inflatable structures offer remarkable versatility due to their compact storage and rapid deployment, making them ideal for lightweight, quickly assembled, and deployable applications. These structures are typically made from membranes that are nearly inextensible yet highly flexible.

Al─N Co‐Doped LLZO Solid Electrolytes via One‐Step Sintering: Toward High Ionic Conductivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Al–N co‐doped LLZO solid electrolytes were prepared via a one‐step sintering process, which not only simplifies fabrication process, but also diminishes Li loss during high‐temperature sintering in conventional fabrication process. The Al–N co‐doped LLZO achieves a high ionic conductivity of 2.19 × 10−3 S cm−1 because the co‐doping reduces the energy ...
