Abstract Due to the mutual repulsion between their hydrophilic surface terminations and high energy facilitating random restacking, 2D MXene nanosheets usually cannot self-assemble into 3D macroscopic gels with various applications in absence of proper linking agents. In this work, a rapid spontaneous gelation Ti 3 C 2 T x very low dispersion concentration 0.5 mg mL −1 multifunctional architectures under moderate centrifugation is illustrated. The as-prepared exhibit reconfigurable internal...
Although mythologies and fictions have recorded living creatures fully composed of inorganics, it is however hard to turn inorganic constituents into lifelike materials in reality as they usually do not possess characteristics required for constructing a organism. Here, we report our knowledge the first biomimetic hydrogel response both pH temperature variations that solely comprises graphene oxide water. The capable abruptly reversibly switching its mechanical tribological properties by...
Magnetic gels are usually organic polymer–inorganic particle hybrids. We show that magnetic with high lubricity, self-healing, chemical degradability, and flame irradiation resistances can be prepared solely Fe 3 O 4 particles water.
Hydrogels have received extensive attention as functional lubricants because of their excellent anti-friction and anti-wear properties, tunable tribological performances, effectiveness in alleviating lubrication failures caused by the creeping or leakage conventional liquid owing to semi-solid nature. This review summarizes current research advances hydrogel fabricated with various organic and/or inorganic gelators, including polymeric supramolecular hydrogels, particles-based...
Abstract To date, locking the shape of liquids into non‐equilibrium states usually relies on jamming nanoparticle surfactants at an oil/water interface. Here we show that a synthetic water‐soluble zwitterionic Gemini surfactant can serve as alternative to for stabilizing, structuring and additionally lubricating liquids. By having high binding energy comparable amphiphilic nanoparticles paraffin interface, attain near‐zero interfacial tensions ultrahigh surface coverages after spontaneous...
Due to inclusion of toxic and nondegradable base oils additives, most the commercially available semisolid lubricants easily cause severe environmental burdens health risks. This therefore leads use these lubricant products contrary principles sustainable chemistry engineering. To solve this crucial issue, in work, we create a new type eco-friendly emulsion-based gel that is able combine characteristics traditional oil-in-water emulsions. The advantages employing emulsion include (1) facile...
