Effect of morphology and defectiveness of graphene-related materials on the electrical and thermal conductivity of their polymer nanocomposites

, 2016
In this work, electrically and thermally conductive poly (butylene terephthalate) nanocomposites were prepared by in-situ ring-opening polymerization of cyclic butylene terephthalate (CBT) in presence of a tin-based catalyst.

Non‐Equilibrium Magnon Engineering Enabling Significant Thermal Transport Modulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study provides a novel principle and method for artificially controlling heat conduction in solids by engineering non‐equilibrium magnon transport. The thermal transport measurements for ferromagnetic metal/insulator junctions reveal that magnons carry substantial heat even in ferromagnetic metals at room temperature and the magnon‐mediated heat ...

Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Hairy Particles with Controllable High Enzyme Loading and Activity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
For the first time, a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor based on SiO2‐based hairy particles with a grafted PDMAEMA polymer brush containing a quantifiable and large amount of immobilized Laccase is reported. The fabricated biosensor exhibits a sensitivity of 0.14 A·m⁻¹, a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 µm, and a detection range of 0.3–750 µm,
