Engineering Strategies for Stable and Long‐Life Alkaline Zinc‐Based Flow Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Alkaline zinc‐based flow batteries face persistent challenges from unstable zinc deposition, including dendrite growth, passivation, corrosion, and hydrogen evolution, which severely limit cycling stability. Current research addresses these issues through coordinated electrode structuring, electrolyte regulation, and membrane design to control zinc ...

Ultraviolet-induced Surface Grafting of Octafluoropentyl Methacrylate on Polyether Ether Ketone for Inducing Antibiofilm Properties [PDF]

, 2017
Since octafluoropentyl methacrylate is an antifouling polymer, surface modification of polyether ether ketone with octafluoropentyl methacrylate is a practical approach to obtaining anti-biofilm biocompatible devices.

Evolution of dispersion of carbon nanotubes in Polyamide 11 matrix composites as determined by DC conductivity [PDF]

, 2012
Double-walled Carbon NanoTubes (DWCNTs) have been dispersed in a Polyamide 11 (PA11) matrix by two routes: in the solvent way, Polyamide 11 was first dissolved in its solvent to ensure a liquid state dispersion of carbon nanotubes by ultrasonic way; in ...

Magnetothermal‐Triggered Response and Self‐Healing of Recyclable and Reprocessable Nanocomposites for Actuation Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Developing recyclable materials for magnetic robotics that combine rapid response and self‐healing properties is challenging. Hence, this study focuses on the integration of magnetothermal nanoparticles into a dynamic sorbitol‐based vitrimer, a recyclable composite capable of remote actuation and self‐healing by magnetic heating.

Surface Chemistry for Improvement in Load-Carrying Capacity of Poly(Ether-Ether-Ketone)-Based Materials by Poly(Tetrafluoroethylene)

Tribology Online, 2008
The tribological properties of poly(ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK) against steel was evaluated by a ring-on-flat type tribo-test under rotating motion. Addition of poly(tetrafluoroethlene) (PTFE) as solid lubricants improved the load-carrying capacity of the
