Surface Modification of PVC Membranes Using Fluorothiophenol Compounds

Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, 2010
AbstractThe controlled chemical surface modification of PVC films by means of three fluoride aromatic compounds, 4‐fluoro thiophenol, 3,4‐difluorothiophenol and penta fluorothiophenol is reported. To obtain information about the surface selectivity of the reactions, the degree of modification of the polymer across the film was determined by depth ...

Rational Tuning of Hygroscopic Oscillation of Stacked Nanoflake Assemblies for Continuous Ambient Energy Harvesting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stacked nanoflake assembly (SNA) membranes can oscillate autonomously, offering opportunities for soft actuation and energy harvesting. This work uncovers the physical mechanism behind the sustained oscillation of SNA membranes in gradient humidity and identifies three governing dimensionless parameters, enabling rational design for optimizing SNA ...

Parallel Electrical Integration of Photo Bio Electrochemical Systems (photo‐BESs): Performance Gains and Load Dependency

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.
