In this study, we designed a dual-chirality hierarchical structure to achieve synergistically enhanced effect in microwave absorption via the hybridization of nanomaterials. Herein, polyaniline (PANi) nanorods with tunable chirality are grown on helical carbon nanotubes (HCNTs), typical nanoscale chiral structure, through situ polymerization. The experimental results show that hybrids (PANi@HCNTs) exhibit distinctly dual and significant enhancement electromagnetic (EM) losses compared those...

Most microwave absorbers lose their function under harsh working conditions, such as a high temperature and an oxidative environment. Here, we developed heterogeneous ZrN0.4B0.6/SiC nanohybrid via combined catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) infiltration (CVI) processes using ZrB2 the starting material. The composition structure of were controlled by tuning CCVD CVI parameters, reaction temperature, time, reactant concentration. optimal nanohybrids obtained initially preparing ZrB2@C...

An intercalation polymerization is applied to regulate the hybridizing structures of polyaniline@graphene (PANI@GE). Polarization GE sheets realized, which attributed hybridization by in situ intercalation-polymerized PANI molecules. The polarizing effect on confirmed characterizations and density functional theory calculations, results indicate that distinct p-π π-π interactions exist between molecules sheets. As a result, this new structural hybrid leads high performance microwave...

Development of high-performance materials for electromagnetic wave absorption has attracted extensive interest, but it still remains a huge challenge especially in reducing density and lowering filler loading. Herein, hierarchical all-carbon nanostructure is rationally designed as follows: the defect-rich hollow graphite capsules (GCs) controlled by size/density ZnO templates are synthesized on surface helical carbon nanotubes (HCNTs) to form hybrid nanocomposite, denoted GCs@HCNTs. As...

Graphene is often used to improve the thermal conductivity of polymers but usually with high amount. The key factor that limits graphene agglomeration as well incompatible interface between and polymer. Here, we report super-high polyamide-6 (PA6) composites achieved by adding small amounts oxide (GO)-stabilized dispersions (graphene-GO). introduction GO not only acts an effective dispersant for due non-covalent π-stacking interactions also participates in PA6 polymerization. Therefore,...

Helical carbon nanotube (HCNT) is a vital member of nanomaterials, but little effort was devoted to explore its unique characteristics and applications during the past few decades. Here, we report an organic thermoelectric composite with excellent photothermoelectric (PTE) effect by conformally wrapping polypyrrole (PPy) on intricate surface HCNTs, which have been confirmed remarkable near-infrared (NIR) photothermal conversion capability ultralow heat transportation characteristics. The...
